    After sailing on the sea for half a month, we finally arrived at the end of this voyage: San Francisco, also known as San Francisco and San Francisco.

    When you disembark from the ship, you will be inspected by U.S. customs officers.  If you see someone with blond hair and blue eyes, you will let them go with a wave of your hand; if you see someone with yellow skin and dark eyes, they will all be taken to another room for careful examination.  Sun Yuanqi had a certificate from the American Embassy and letters of invitation from Yale, MIT, and the American Chemical Society, so he was naturally not afraid of him.  The customs officer saw Sun Yuanqi, who was taller than him, walking up to him with a relaxed expression. He glanced up and down and saw several English certificates in his hand.  I originally wanted to say something, but in the end I didn't say anything. I waved my hand and let Sun Yuanqi go.

    Dragging luggage, as soon as we walked out of the pier, we saw a group of people picking up people outside, holding various signs with names on them.  Hey, then why do you have your own name?  There was a big playing card with "yorkjohnson" written on it, and "Sun Yuanqi" written in crooked Chinese below. There were several people surrounding the sign, and one of them was Rutherford.

    Rutherford and a few people were chatting while staring at the exit of the pier.  I saw a person waving to this side. When I looked closely, who was it if it wasn't Sun Yuanqi?  Seeing Sun Yuanqi wearing a suit, shirt and tie, Rutherford's eyes almost popped out of his head.

    Among the group of people, Rutherford had seen Sun Yuanqi. Seeing Rutherford's surprised look, they all followed his gaze and looked forward, only to see a handsome young man about 1.8 meters tall walking over, wearing a suit and shirt.  Wearing a tie, fair skin, um, and a rather strange hairstyle.  His expression was a bit melancholy and bookish, like a college student.  If his facial profile hadn't betrayed him, no one would have suspected that he was from a certain university in the United States.

    When he got closer, Rutherford rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then asked tentatively: "Excuse me, are you York?"

    "Yes, Mr. Rutherford." Sun Yuanqi laughed and extended his right hand, "I am very happy to see you again!"

    Rutherford immediately jumped up and hugged Sun Yuanqi: "York, it's really you! You have changed so much that I don't recognize you anymore!"

    After Sun Yuanqi and Rutherford hugged each other warmly, he explained: "The so-called 'do as the Romans do when you are in the country'. Now that you have arrived in the United States, you must make some changes. By the way, why did you come to San Francisco?"

    "I received your telegram and learned that you are going to the United States in June. There are only one or two ships from the Far East to the United States every month. I think you are taking this ship in mid-June - this is the ship I took last year.  ." Rutherford said, "It just so happened that McGill University was about to go on summer vacation, and I had nothing to do, so I came here."

    "Thank you!" Sun Yuanqi was afraid of neglecting his companion, so he reminded him: "You haven't introduced your friend yet."

    Rutherford patted his head: "I was so happy that I almost forgot! These are all people I just met. We all have a common job, which is to pick you up. Instead of me telling you, why don't you introduce yourself?"

    The first person introduced was a forty-year-old middle-aged man who seemed to be a standard American scholar: "This is John Martin, from the University of California, Berkeley. He is a famous professor of chemistry and a member of the Western Conference of the American Chemical Society.  Vice president of the chapter. My name is David Lint, professor of chemistry at the University of San Francisco and secretary of the Western Chapter of the American Chemical Society.¡±

    John Martin was about fifty years old and was a little awkward with words. After hearing David¡¯s introduction, he waved his hand quickly: ¡°I¡¯m just an ordinary chemistry teacher¡­¡±

    Sun Yuanqi took the initiative to shake hands with them.  When shaking hands with Professor Martin, Professor Martin was a little surprised: "Are you York Johnson who wrote "Principles of Chemistry"? You are so young!"

    ""Principles of Chemistry"?" Sun Yuanqi was a little confused.

    Rutherford explained on the side: "It was "From Atoms, Atomic Structure to Elements, Periodic Table of Elements, Molecules and the Nature of Chemical Reactions" that you gave me. The name was too long, so when it was reprinted, it had to be renamed "Principles of Chemistry"  .¡±

    David was very scholarly and gave a general introduction to their purpose and plan when shaking hands: "Mr. Johnson, at the end of last month, the American Chemical Society received your telegram and learned that you were invited to visit this month, so I called you at the beginning of this month.  Our Western Branch would like to arrange the reception. We are very honored to have Mr. Sir come here. Members who have read Mr.¡¯s works strongly request that the Society arrange for Mr. to give a speech so that he can introduce to us your knowledge of the principles of chemistry.  I know you, sir, I hope you can take the time to agree."

    Sun Yuanqi was a little helpless. His knowledge of chemistry was limited to what he had learned as a graduate student, and his specialty, physics, seemed not to be taken seriously by others: "Okay, that's my honor!"

    Take itThe article "Experimental Research on Uranium, Polonium and Radium Radiation Rays" was published in "Scinece" in 2008.  Starting from that article, we can summarize the theory of transmutation of radioactive elements"

    "The reflectivity of the three metals uranium, polonium and radium is completed under natural conditions. But through analysis, we know that atoms can change. What changes can occur? This is what we will need in the future.  Research and discussion. What I mention below is my "Experiments and Conjectures on Atomic Structure" published in "Nature" in 1898. In this paper, I think"

    "At the beginning of this lecture, the distinguished Professor John Martin has already mentioned that the results of the distribution pattern of electrons in the outer shell of the atomic nucleus will be announced within one or two years, so there is no need to argue about the atomic structure. Everyone here, maybe someone  I read "From Atoms, Atomic Structure to Elements, Periodic Table of Elements, Molecules and the Nature of Chemical Reactions" published by McGill University in 1899, which was later renamed "Principles of Chemistry". In the book, I proposed that different  The atomic structure of elements is roughly like this"

    "Based on the above discussion, we can see that if the atomic nuclei of one or two elements are changed through some technology or means, will it become another element or elements? So,'  I've done an interesting experiment" Sun Yuanqi drew a schematic diagram of the experiment on the blackboard

    What Sun Yuanqi was talking about was the first artificial nuclear reaction in human history, completed by Rutherford in 1919.  In the experiment, alpha particles released by polonium (po) were used as bullets to shoot nitrogen. There was a probability of one in 50,000 that the alpha particles reacted with nitrogen (n) and turned into oxygen (o) and protons.  This is the first time in human history that the "Miracle Touch" has been artificially achieved, turning one element into another.

    When Sun Yuanqi reported the results of this experiment, the professors and students below were shocked: Oh my God, it turns out that one element can be transformed into another element through this method!

    "Of course, I think this is just one type of nuclear reaction, and there are more nuclear reactions waiting for us to explore. It is up to everyone here to discover these unknown nuclear reactions!" Sun Yuanqi bowed and ended the speech.  .

    It was silent down below.

    When Professor John Martin stepped onto the podium, the audience below burst into warm applause.

    Professor John Martin was very excited: "I am very grateful to Professor Johnson for announcing his latest research results on the podium at Berkeley. This is the honor and pride of Berkeley. If Professor Johnson's experimental results are proven to be reliable, then our understanding of matter will  There is no doubt that our own understanding will take a big step forward. This is a milestone in the progress and development of human science and technology! We at Berkeley will repeat Professor Johnson's experiment in the shortest possible time and publish the results as soon as possible. Next, there is free question time.  Could you please raise your hands to ask a question?"

    ¡°Perhaps the content has gone far beyond people¡¯s knowledge, and many people have been stunned and speechless.  Only one person raised his hand: "Excuse me, Dear Professor Johnson, how did you come up with this experiment?"

    This question made Sun Yuanqi scratch his head. The book did not say why, so he had to make nonsense: "Then it is because nitrogen is the most abundant in the air."

    "That is to say, do you think the oxygen in the air may come from nitrogen?" the man asked rhetorically.

    "I think this possibility exists, but it is not the only one. Because some leguminous plants can absorb nitrogen and then produce oxygen through photosynthesis." Sun Yuanqi replied.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
