Li Rongmao didn't know about Yanhua University's Metal Material Laboratory, nor was he aware of Zhao Yi's involvement in the research and development of turbine blade alloy materials.
He made the connection between Zhao Yi and the turbine blade materials only after seeing a message from Steel Plant 307 announcing the performance enhancement of K03A, which mentioned Zhao Yi's name, crediting "Academician Zhao's guidance and advice." What that guidance and suggestions entailed, however, was completely unknown to him.
Li Rongmao paid little attention to the news because someone as eminent as Academician Zhao Yi seemed too distant from his own life.
Now, thinking back to the voice on the phone saying that Academician Zhao thought highly of him and wished for him to join their R&D project...
"Turbine blade materials, nickel-iron alloy?" Li Rongmao suddenly realized that everything made sense.
