Kuching, inside the Physics Research Institute.

Using the Cyclotron and a Nuclear Fusion reaction, Yu Yin successfully created Element 43 artificially.

This not only proved Li Qiwei's previously proposed theory of Nuclear Fusion, but also blazed a trail for the artificial synthesis of chemical elements, carrying immeasurable value.

The chemists were likely about to go completely mad.

Yu Yin even began to wonder whether he should simply synthesize Element 79—gold—next.

The sensation that would cause was beyond imagination!

"Turning stone into gold" would no longer be the fantasy of ancient alchemists, but a dream made reality.

At that thought, even he, usually so low-key and composed, could not help growing excited.

But there was another urgent matter at hand.

"Dean, please name the new element."

By the rules everyone now tacitly accepted, whoever discovered a new element had the right to name it.

But Yu Yin knew very well that without the dean's guidance, he would have found it difficult to create Element 43.

So he did not dare claim the credit arrogantly, instead letting the dean decide.

Whoosh!

At Yu Yin's words, Li Qiwei's heart actually trembled faintly.

He was even more nervous than when he had proposed General Relativity.

Given his current standing, an achievement like artificially creating Element 43 was merely routine.

But this naming concerned not his or Yu Yin's personal honor, but the honor of their nation.

Therefore, Li Qiwei did not decline. He would name it himself!

The original name, Technetium, was simply too unpleasant. It had to be replaced with something lofty and grand, something steeped in Huaxia heritage.

That was right. Through the naming of a chemical element, Li Qiwei wanted Huaxia culture to shine through the ages!

"To hammer the mark of Huaxia into the bloodstream of science!"

Such a thing
