Free Web NovelChapter 344: Chapter 228: Zhao Yi’s C Language Class
After handing in the final accounting report for the project, the immunological response mechanism study for rheumatoid arthritis was heading into its last phase.
This stage required reporting to superiors, cooperating with auditors sent by them, drafting relevant papers, and finally settling the project funds.
Throughout this wrap-up process, Zhao Yi didn’t need to be involved.
Whether it was writing professional medical papers or cooperating with the superiors’ auditing work, Zhang Wei and Ai Lixin were the ones in charge. Zhao Yi figured that after working on two projects consecutively and the lab work was always quite busy, it was time to give everyone a break.
That day, Zhao Yi encouraged everyone in the lab, "Keep up the good work!"
"We’ve finally finished this project, and everyone worked very hard. Once we wrap everything up, we can take a proper break."
"Brother Liu, you’re about to become a regular employee, right? Congratulations!"
Zhao Yi took out a stack of money from his bag, "Here’s your bonus."
Liu Chengjie was ecstatic holding the money.
Zhao Yi continued, "The project isn’t fully closed yet, but I reckon we’ll have just under a million left. Everyone will get over 50,000 as bonus."
He specially patted Liu Chengjie’s shoulder, "Don’t worry, Brother Liu, you’ll get a bonus this time too!"
The office erupted in cheers immediately.
When Liu Chengjie heard Zhao Yi’s words, he couldn’t stop himself from beaming. But then, he began to feel something was off.
Zhang Wei and Ai Lixin were very happy.
No one would say no to more money. Zhang Wei was thinking about splurging on a luxury bag, sick of carrying around her 200-yuan one, feeling uncomfortable all over. fгeewebnovёl.com
Ai Lixin never expected such a huge bonus just half a month after joining the lab.
Once he got the money, his savings would swell instantly, giving him a tremendous boost in work motivation.
Having a good boss really mattered. Compared to his previous boss, Dai Tianqing, who never gave out a bonus over ten thousand in ten years.
There was just no comparison!
Of course.
Ai Lixin could understand since they weren’t working on regular projects. Even if there were leftover project funds, they would be taken back.
"Projects with leftovers are just the best! But... not all labs dare to take them on!"
There must be reasons for the leftovers. Once a portion of the research funds is used up, there may not be enough left. It’d be better to reapply under a different name than to continue. Taking on a project and failing to complete it would be a stain on one’s research record.
The lab work resumed afterwards.
Ai Lixin was writing his paper on the computer; Zhang Wei was doing the same; Liu Chengjie was also analyzing data on his computer, apparently planning to write a summary paper.
Zhao Yi hung around for another five minutes, finished his coffee, checked the time, and decided to leave.
There was nothing for him to do there.
After stepping out of the research institute, Zhao Yi suddenly felt like a capitalist. Although they were all working together and he learned a lot from the project.
In the end, the project actualised close to a million, but he only handed out tens of thousands in bonuses.
That...
Seemed like he was exploiting a bit too much!
But then he shrugged it off, the main forces of the projects indeed were Ai Lixin and Zhang Wei. Liu Chengjie was always assisting, more involved than he was, but the speed of the project completion was primarily due to him.
He set the research direction, analyzed each experiment, and drew conclusions.
These were the keys.
Designing the experiments was something anyone in the institute could do. However, the final analysis and conclusion that directly helped identify critical issues were something only he could do.
So, it was justified.
Then Zhao Yi started worrying about his life goals again.
The requirement of his life goals was to initiate achievement tasks in biology, which meant he had to achieve acknowledged results in the field of biology. However, his achievements in biology were always overshadowed by his accomplishments in math.
His math paper would still be published in the next issue of "Mathematical Progress."
"Hope it doesn’t make a big splash!" Zhao Yi sighed to himself.
He returned to his normal campus life.
For the next week, just like any ordinary student, he attended classes every day, played computer games in his free time, and played football or basketball on the playing field.
His life was easy and fulfilling.
During his laid-back university life, Zhao Yi never forgot about ’coin grinding.’ He always ground his sports coins, leisure coins, and relaxation coins, while flirting coins relied on luck and mood.
Only rest coins were left.
Rest coins were actually easy to grind. Zhao Yi never played truant and always chose higher mathematics or math problem classes. But there were often times when there weren’t any higher math classes available.
So, when there were no higher math classes and he still wanted to grind rest coins, what could he do?
In the dormitory.
Zhao Yi and Fan Lei had just played a match of Dota online, which happily net them a few leisure coins. At the end of their game, Fan Lei put down his headset and said to Zhao Yi, "I have to stop now, I have class!"
"Okay... What class?" Zhao Yi turned to ask.
"C Language!"
"C Language?"
Zhao Yi thought that he hadn’t ground any rest coins for the day, and he had never been to a C language class his entire uni life, so he might as well attend and earn some coins. "Let’s go together!"
"Together?"
Fan Lei opened his mouth wide in surprise, "You’re going to a C language class?"
