Chapter 99

For such an awesome skill, Li Mingyang has only heard of it from one awesome person, and doesn't know if it's true or false.

It is said that the super-genius Tesla, who was active over a hundred years ago, possessed such an ability—he could simulate a laboratory in his mind and carry out all experiments there.

Thus many of the things Tesla invented exist only as finished products, without any record of the research process, leaving many scientists who want to replicate his work with no way to do so.

But for Li Mingyang, these are no problem, after all he isn't researching what Tesla actually invented—just an old antique from over a hundred years ago.

Li Mingyang's heart is now filled only with endless delight and anticipation for his sudden skill.

With this mental simulation lab, he would need to prepare materials only once for any future experiment.

He could first replicate an identical lab in his mind, conduct the experiment there, and once successful, directly replicate it in reality.

Even many things can be achieved through the mental lab.

Li Mingyang truly deserves his title as a genius with an IQ over 180; in just a few seconds he already thought of many ways to develop and use the mental lab.

For example, the top-tier equipment—whether supercomputers or some of the nation's leading devices that ordinary research institutes can't even access.

He could replicate all of them through his mental lab.

In other words, after gaining this mental lab, Li Mingyang not only has ten times more experimental time than in real life!

At the same time, Li Mingyang possesses the world's top-tier lab, with no equal.

Because no matter how top-tier a lab is, it's impossible to gather all the world's best things into one small lab, right?

But Li Mingyang's mental lab can easily achieve that.

For example, right now Li Mingyang merely imagined it in his mind.

His mental lab immediately changed form, perfectly replicating 1:1 his teacher Wang Qiang's lab.

His teacher's lab, with all its equipment and consumables, is worth at least several small fortunes, maybe even more.

Even though Li Mingyang's current wealth would allow him to easily set up such a lab, many of its items are not easy to obtain.

But now, Li Mingyang's cost is merely a little thought and imagination!

Simply... awesome!

Besides these two simplest and purest words, Li Mingyang can't think of any other words to describe his current mood.

They can fully express the greatness of his mental lab.

Even after over two and a half years, Li Mingyang's language skills have already reached the elite level, yet at this moment he can only find this pure and simple word.

……

In the blink of an eye, half a month later, Li Mingyang finally saw his teacher Wang Qiang again.

Originally Wang Qiang wasn't planning to return so soon, but after hearing about Li Mingyang's outstanding performance at the research institute, he decided to make a trip back.

Now this little apprentice of his has grown to a certain height; if he continued to let him roam freely, it would clearly not match Wang Qiang's training goals.

So even though he was very busy, Wang Qiang still found time amidst his hectic schedule to come back.

It wasn't for anything else; it was solely for his little apprentice's graduation issue.

Although when he first enrolled he had already received the Principal's promise that as soon as Li Mingyang's level reached the required standard, he could proceed with any level of graduation ceremony.

But Li Mingyang seems not to care much about that, focusing solely on study; even though his level had long surpassed undergraduate, he is still an undergraduate now.

And if Wang Qiang wanted to bring Li Mingyang along to train him, he would first have to resolve this little apprentice's academic qualification issue.

After all, the places he frequents are the nation's top research institutes and labs, and even many projects are inaccessible to ordinary Professors.

And if he wants to bring Li Mingyang in, he surely can't let him remain an undergraduate who hasn't graduated yet.

Even if he wanted to force it, he could do it, after all Wang Qiang is the national authority in the research field of aviation enterprises.

But doing so wouldn't be good; although Wang Qiang doesn't care much about his own reputation, it would be bad for his little apprentice's future development.

It would easily label him as a connection-backed hire, making it hard to move an inch in the research institute.

Although Wang Qiang himself is an authority in the aviation field, after all no one can be omniscient and omnipotent; he believes there are still many areas where others surpass him.

And in the national major projects he participates in, it is inevitable that the nation's top talents from all fields are gathered.

Wang Qiang also thought that when bringing Li Mingyang along, he could ask others for guidance and learn, whether openly or by stealthily observing.

At least he needs an intentional identity to go, so that everything can proceed more smoothly.

So Wang Qiang specially took three days off to come back!

And at this time Li Mingyang also received an urgent notice from his teacher and the Principal, telling him to quickly prepare his graduation thesis.

It's not just a single paper, but three whole papers!

He must prepare his bachelor's, master's, and Doctor's thesis within these three days and pass the defense.

Fortunately, Li Mingyang's usual accumulation is quite substantial; three papers are nothing, although the time is tight, it's not impossible for him to finish.

When the time officially arrived for the thesis defense day, whether it was the Principal, or his teacher Wang Qiang, or the other Professors.

When they saw Li Mingyang's youthful face, they couldn't help but show an admiring expression.

Almost all Professors at the school have paid attention to this genius Li Mingyang, and they also have a good impression of this hardworking talented student.

Nobody doubts Li Mingyang has the ability to pass the graduation defense, but they still can't help sighing.

Someone like Li Mingyang, who is not even twenty this year, can directly earn a doctorate at their Harbin Institute of Technology—truly the first such case!

Even though these Professors are each top-tier experts in their own Professional fields, at this moment they still can't help feeling a complex emotion like the previous wave being beaten to death on the sand.

Even they clearly feel in their hearts that this teacher-student relationship will likely only last until today!

In a few more days, when they meet again, it will likely be in some concealed research institute, where the original teacher-student relationship will directly become a colleague relationship.

Such a thing is not impossible; it is already an evident fact, something that will inevitably happen, with no room for accident.

"Let's start the thesis defense, beginning with the bachelor's!"
