At noon, Xiang Nan, Howard, and Leslie went to the restaurant to eat together, and happened to meet Leonard and Sheldon at the same table.

"Hey, how did you three get together?" Leonard asked curiously when he saw this.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just a coincidence." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, not wanting to reveal the secret.

Leonard was doubtful, but did not continue to ask, "Okay, I have news for you. The Department of Physics has a new department chair, Dr. Eric Gablehouse. The department is planning to hold a welcome party for him, scheduled for

Dinner at six o'clock tonight."

"Thank you for the reminder." Xiang Nan smiled.

"I really don't understand why the school asked him to be the head of the department. You have to know that he has no scientific research results in twenty-five years. He only wrote some best-selling popular science books, which are at most the level of toilet reading." Sheldon said.

He curled his lips and said with great disdain.

"Sheldon~" Leonard said dissatisfied when he saw him using the toilet while eating.

Xiang Nan's eyes lit up after hearing Sheldon's complaints.

Dr. Eric Gablehouse has no scientific research results in twenty-five years, only a bunch of best-selling popular science books.

He has no outstanding academic achievements, and is actually quite despised in the academic community. If he wants to secure his position as department chair, he must have certain political achievements.

And its own quantum navigation system, habitable planets, and Kuiper Belt debris disk algorithm are all excellent scientific research projects.

With these projects, he can build a good relationship with Dr. Gablehouse and win his support.

In the future, it will be much easier to apply for scientific research funds, apply for tenured professors, apply for various awards, etc.

Therefore, Xiang Nan immediately took out his phone, called Penny, and invited her to the party.

Although Penny doesn't understand physics, she is very good at communication.

With her help, I can have a good chat with my new department chair.

"The party held by the Physics Department... won't all the nerds be there?" Penny said worriedly, not really looking forward to it.

"Don't worry, it's just about eating, drinking, and chatting. The Physics Department has always had sufficient research funds, so the ingredients prepared are first-class." Xiang Nan explained with a smile, "Don't you like steak the most?

, these are some of the best Angus steaks.”

"Really?! Wow, it looks like I have to go." Penny said happily.

…

After dinner, Xiang Nan, Howard, and Leslie continued to gather together to perform calculations.

By four o'clock in the afternoon, after the collective efforts of the three people, all calculations were finally completed.

After repeated calculations, the results were confirmed to be correct, and all three of them were very excited.

"Great, we finally succeeded." Xiang Nan said happily.

"Once our paper is published, it will definitely shock the world." Howard also said excitedly.

"So we can't do that." When Xiang Nan heard this, he immediately stopped him. "Once our paper is published, other people will be able to develop quantum navigation systems and quantum communication systems based on the paper, and then we will be finished."

In the play, just because Leonard and Sheldon published their paper, a Swedish scientific research team wanted to conduct a superfluid vortex experiment before them to seize their scientific research results.

After hearing this, Howard suddenly looked stern.

"Yes, Rajesh is right. If we want to develop a quantum navigation system and a quantum communication system, then the results must not be made public." Leslie also agreed.

"Well, you are all right. I was too happy, so I said the wrong thing." Howard smiled awkwardly.

Compared to Xiang Nan, Leslie's maturity makes him look like a child who hasn't grown up, which is really embarrassing.

"Okay, I just said something wrong at the moment, and no one can avoid it." Xiang Nan waved his hands and smiled, "The next thing we have to do is to design the experimental model. Leslie, you are strong in this area, we all rely on you

You are."

All theories must be experimentally verified after being introduced. The person responsible for designing experimental verification is the experimental physicist.

"Don't worry." Leslie nodded.

"Okay, it's getting late. I'll pick up Penny from get off work first. Let's see you at the party." Xiang Nan smiled again.

…

Xiang Nan then drove to pick up Penny.

After arriving home, I saw that she had changed her clothes and was now putting on makeup.

"Oh, Honey, you look so beautifully dressed." Xiang Nan said in amazement.

Penny was seen wearing a black suspender skirt, which perfectly showed off her exquisite curves.

It can be said that whenever she appears at a party, she will definitely be the center of attention.

"Of course, I won't embarrass you." Penny said proudly.

After she finished dressing up, Xiang Nan took her to school at 6:05.

When we arrived at the cafeteria, we saw that the party had already started.

People gathered together in twos and threes, talking and chatting, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

When they saw Penny, almost everyone present paid attention and saluted.

"Wow, if I could enjoy this kind of treatment in Hollywood, I would have become famous long ago." Penny couldn't help but said.

In Hollywood, she is just one of thousands of beauties, not conspicuous at all. But here, she is the goddess that attracts everyone's attention, enough to turn all living beings upside down.

"You walk in the brilliance of beauty, like the night, clear and cloudless, filled with stars!" Howard stepped forward, bowed slightly, and quoted Byron's poem in praise.

Penny rolled her eyes and said coldly, "Howard, I told you, don't be like this."

Howard smiled and suddenly looked into the distance, "Hey, the new department chair is here."

Xiang Nan looked over curiously and saw a tall, middle-aged man in a straight suit, a hooked nose, and a square chin walking through the crowd and walking over.

"Hello everyone, I'm Eric Gablehouse." He introduced himself with a smile.

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Gablehouse, I am Rajesh Kusapally." Xiang Nan introduced with a smile, "This is my girlfriend Penny."

"Hello, beautiful girl!" Gablehouse smiled, "Rajesh, you are very enviable."

"Thank you." Xiang Nan nodded.

Just then, Leonard arrived with Sheldon.

"Hello, Dr. Gablehouse, I am Leonard Hofstadter." Leonard introduced himself.

"Hello, Leonard." Dr. Gablehouse nodded, then looked at Sheldon, "Then you are..."

"Sheldon Cooper, a true scientist." Sheldon held his hand and introduced himself seriously.

Dr. Gablehouse's expression suddenly froze.

"With all due respect, I think Caltech has overestimated your level. Your qualifications are equivalent to those of a middle school physics teacher." No matter how ugly his face was, Sheldon continued to speak venomously, "You have not been able to do this for so many years.

I have never done any original research, and the last successful experiment still set my own fart on fire..."
