Everyone in Shen Nuo Fei's family is talented, and everyone at Shen Qi Mathematical and Physical Research Center is also talented; she loves both places.

For the next period of time, Shen Nuo Fei appeared at the Shen Qi Mathematical and Physical Research Center every few days. She became the center's darling, and the line of young men who wanted to establish a pure friendship with Shen Nuo Fei stretched all the way to the gate of Shuimu University.

Every year in the first quarter, all employees of Yenching University with the rank of Associate Professor or above receive relevant training, with only two themes: Integrity and Fairness, Patriotism and Dedication.

This year's trainers came from the First Party School, and the principal personally taught the courses.

This Party School Principal graduated from the Chemistry Department at Shuimu University and also served as Member of the Privy Council and Minister of Organization.

The principal is a scholar-type leader. Although this year's education on integrity and patriotism had some elements of being overly political, the principal delivered the lecture very professionally and brilliantly.

Shen Qi attended this training session in the Yanjing University Auditorium. It was a required course for him; he had to attend and complete the required credits.

The principal played a documentary featuring Tao Qimin, the director of the Liver Disease Research Institute at Yanjing University People's Hospital.

Professor Tao Qimin dedicated her life to the research of domestically produced Hepatitis B Vaccine. In the 1970s and 1980s, her team developed the first Hepatitis B Vaccine.

The liver disease vaccine research and development team at the Capital Medical University People's Hospital was extremely excited and thrilled. However, due to various limitations, the team was unable to contact the gorillas used for animal experiments.

Professor Tao Qimin made an astonishing move that seems to exist only in myths and legends: she injected a sample of Hepatitis B Vaccine into her own body, testing the virus on herself, a feat comparable to that of Shen Nong, the legendary Chinese deity.

When Professor Tao returned home, he told his two young children, "Mommy is going to get an injection, which might make her sick. You two should stay away from me for now."

As the documentary reached this point, Shen Qi was deeply moved.

Scientists of that era were truly dedicated to scientific research, disregarding personal interests, and possessing a fearless spirit of self-sacrifice for science.

In order to enable the domestic Hepatitis B Vaccine, internally codenamed 7571, to be mass-produced as soon as possible, Professor Tao transferred his unique technology and processes to other research institutions and pharmaceutical companies free of charge.

As we all know, Tao Qimin's team successfully developed a domestically produced Hepatitis B Vaccine, benefiting a generation and saving countless lives.

After the documentary about Tao Qimin finished playing, the principal remained silent, allowing the students to experience the spirit of the documentary for themselves.

The professors and Associate Professor of Yenching University spontaneously applauded, especially the scholars from the Yanjing University School of Medicine, School of Life Sciences, and Chemistry Department. They were deeply moved and paid the highest tribute to the late Professor Tao.

"Comrades, I have a background in chemistry, and Professor Tao is one of the scientists I respect most. Scientists like Professor Tao have made such noble achievements through selfless dedication. However, it is heartbreaking that in the 21st century, someone is actually poisoning the people with toxic vaccines." The principal said calmly, but his words were like a thunderclap in silence.

The first part of this anti-corruption and patriotic education session was very effective; all the participants remained silent, each with their own insights.

In the second half, the principal continued to display relevant pictures, news reports, and short videos, explaining, "This is not a joke; it has always existed. The international situation is becoming increasingly complex, and the methods of information theft are constantly evolving, making them difficult to guard against."

"All of you here are renowned researchers in your respective fields. Most of you are project leaders and academic leaders. Safeguarding state secrets is a fundamental law that every citizen must abide by. I have worked in organizational work for many years, and I know how unpredictable people's hearts are. I want to remind you all that while you are upright yourself, you must also pay attention to the thoughts and feelings of your subordinates..."

The principal showed a document, which was internal to the Party School and had not been publicly reported.

According to the data, one international student went to the United States to pursue a master's degree in Quantum Optics Communication.

This international student comes from a wealthy family. He doesn't care about money; he's attracted to mature women with exotic charm.

During his graduate studies in the United States, the international student met a Filipino woman who was ten years older than him.

Then the international student had a smooth journey, successfully completed his doctoral studies, and achieved success in both his studies and love life.

After graduating with a PhD from a prestigious American university, the student returned home and joined a National Key Laboratory.

Then, the PhD graduate who had returned from overseas was arrested.

The principal concluded. "Socrates said that everyone instinctively likes beautiful things, unless they are blind. Pursuing beauty, or rather, pursuing beautiful women, is understandable; after all, this is an era that values appearance. However, we must adhere to bottom lines; these are fundamental principles. My lecture concludes here. Thank you. Oh, and please Face Scan Check-in when you leave."

The Party School Principal has a set routine: professors and Associate Professor don't need to sign in when they enter, but they do sign in when they leave.

As technology advances and Face Scan Check-in technology matures, proxy check-in will become a thing of the past.

Shen Qi successfully used facial recognition and earned credits for Political Study.

The professors and Associate Professor who dropped out midway through the course are doomed; they receive a score of 0, failing in their political awareness, and will need to retake the course at a later date.

The political retake at the First Party School is not so easy. In addition to attending classes diligently, students also have to take exams and write Ideological Report. If they fail the exams or their Ideological Report are perfunctory, they have to continue retaking the course until they meet the political standards.

Skipping class can ruin your life, whether you're a student or a professor.

Zhou Yu'an was extremely annoyed. He was a professor, and because he had dropped out halfway through, he failed the political science exam and needed to retake it.

"It's actually Face Scan Check-in!" Zhou Yu'an complained bitterly. He had previously asked Associate Professor Xiao Junlong to help him check in, but man proposes, God disposes, and no one can outsmart the Party School Principal.

"This shouldn't be happening, Lao Zhou. You joined the Party in your sophomore year, you're a ten-year veteran Party member, and the Deputy Secretary of the Center's Party Branch. How come you don't meet the political requirements?" Shen Qi shook his head and sighed. "Even I wouldn't dare skip the Party School Principal's class. Zhou Yu'an, you're really bold. Who can outmaneuver the principal?"

Coincidentally, Ou Ye also skipped class.

Ou Ye is Non-Party Affiliated Person, but as Associate Professor in the School of Mathematical Sciences, she is required by regulations to receive education on integrity and patriotism for Senior Intellectuals at key universities.

"This is very awkward. My wife, an ordinary citizen, doesn't meet the political standards, and neither does my brother, a veteran Party member. I'm the only one who does." Shen Qi has a high level of political awareness, but those closest to him are showing signs of wavering in their political attitudes.

"This is the first time I've ever had to repeat a course. How embarrassing..." When Ou Ye was a student, she had never repeated any courses. Her weakest subject was physical education. The physical education teacher knew that Ou Ye was not in good health, so he did not make things difficult for Ou Ye. As long as Ou Ye could run or even walk across the finish line, Ou Ye would pass.

To everyone's surprise, after starting work, Professor Ou needed to retake politics.
