"It's a group photo again." Song Tao frowned. It seemed that Director Huang liked to take photos.

However, he didn't care. Leaders like to do this kind of face project. After all, face project is sometimes much more important than real projects.

What's more interesting about him is that Professor Guan Lingling has also arrived, which means she has arrived in Yingqiu County with plasma improvement technology, which has attracted his attention.

Song Tao wanted to know how strong Guan Lingling's technology was and whether it was worth dealing with it.

So Song Tao agreed: "Director Huang, since Professor Guan has arrived, of course I have to go and have a look. After all, we are all sent by the Ministry to improve the color of Yingqiu sapphire, so it is natural to meet. When will I go?"

Huang Guochang replied: "The sooner you come, the better. Now Professor Guan has arrived. She will go back to the mining area for inspection in about an hour, so I hope it will be completed before this and the driver will pick you up."

Song Tao's mouth twitched. Before the relationship was called, Huang Guochang sent the driver over. Isn't this a typical example of taking action first and then reporting? He didn't take him seriously at all.

But Song Tao did not care about this problem: "Okay, then I will rush over immediately after the driver arrives."

After putting down his phone, Song Tao quickly put on his formal clothes to show his solemnity. About ten minutes later, the driver who was specifically responsible for Song Tao's trip during his inspection arrived.

The hotel where Song Tao is located is only half an hour's drive from Yingqiu County Land and Resources Bureau. After he arrived at the Land and Resources Bureau, he saw a secretary-like person waiting for him.

"Secretary Song, please come with me." The secretary led him to a conference room.

This conference room is much bigger than when Song Tao held talks with Huang Guochang at that time. It seems that it is the highest-level reception conference room of the entire county land and resource bureau, which is obviously incomparable to his attention at that time.

The secretary knocked on the door gently and said after entering: "Director Huang, Chief Song has arrived."

Huang Guochang and Guan Lingling slowly stood up. After all, they were the section chiefs of Huachangdi Quality Inspection Station, so they still have to give this number of cards.

Huang Guochang introduced: "Professor Guan, this is Section Chief Song Tao. I have mentioned him to you before."

Huang Guochang had met Song Tao before, so there was nothing strange about meeting again. However, Guan Lingling hesitated for a moment, why did this section chief look like a student?

Normally, she was at least thirty-five years old when she sat in the position of the head of the technical service department at Huachangdi Quality Inspection Center. When she heard Huang Guochang introduce Song Tao, she confirmed this fact.

Guan Lingling stretched out her hand to Song Tao and said, "Hello."

Song Tao hurriedly held it and said with a smile: "Good to know." However, Guan Lingling's next words surprised Song Tao a little.

"I have vaguely heard of your name before. I heard that there is the youngest shortlist in the Golden Hammer Awards in history. That person should be you, right?" Guan Lingling asked.

What surprised Song Tao was that Guan Lingling, a scholar like the Yangtze River who was over 50 years old, had heard of his name.

Song Tao asked: "I was indeed recommended by the school to be awarded the Golden Hammer Award this year and was shortlisted. If that's right, it should be me."

Guan Lingling looked at Song Tao with great appreciation: "I know a little about your academic research. We have considered including the identification standards for HPHT processing sapphire identification. What impressed me the most was the three-link identification method for origin of Hetian jade. I also organized people from the Jewelry Appraisal Center of Peking University to study together."

"You will most likely win this year's Golden Hammer Award." Guan Lingling said with a smile.

When Song Tao heard this, he waved his hand: "There are only ten winners in the Golden Hammer Award every year, and I am not 100% sure. In addition, I admire you very much for improving the plasma implantation method."

After a series of academic hype, Huang Guochang asked staff to join in with Zhang Ying for everyone present.

What made Song Tao feel more at ease was that Guan Lingling did not have that kind of stubborn airs. Although she could feel that she still looked down on her juniors as a senior, she was not despised.

After the photo, Huang Guochang said, "Secretary Song, I've disturbed you. If nothing happens, you can continue to rest."

However, Guan Lingling said at this time: "Since you are here, you don't have to hurry back. If you are interested, we can visit the mining area together."

Song Tao did not expect that since Guan Lingling would invite herself to visit the mining area, she refused: "I had visited the mining area a month ago, so..."

Song Tao was about to say that he didn't have to go, but he thought that since someone had invited him, why not give him face? After all, this is no less than that of academia tycoon entrusted by Jiang Zhongtuo.

"So I think I should go again." Song Tao smiled.

In this way, the group went to the mining area together. The only difference was that Huang Guochang followed him personally this time.

On the way, Song Tao and Guan Lingling were in a car. Song Tao asked by chance: "Professor Guan, ask, what step has your plasma implantation method been taken?"

"Of course, if you don't want to say anything, just pretend I didn't ask." Song Tao added.

After all, this involves the scientific research results of the Peking University, and if Guan Lingling wants to keep it secret, it is understandable.

However, Guan Lingling was very generous: "What's inconvenient about this?" Then she took out a black storage bag from her hiking bag.

I just looked at the results and did not reveal the technical details, so Guan Lingling didn't mind showing it to Song Tao.

Guan Lingling took out a gem display box and a certificate issued by the Jingshi University Jewelry Appraisal Center from the storage bag.

Song Tao hurriedly leaned over and saw that the storage box contained a sapphire the size of a little fingernail. It was dark in color, but it was obviously blue.

Song Tao said in surprise: "This color rating can already reach Royal Blue, right?"

Royal Blue is a recognized high-level color name in Sapphire International Rating, and its value is second only to cornflower blue.

Guan Lingling shook her head: "Not necessarily, a loose organization can give royal blue, but a slightly stricter one may give black blue."

Then Song Tao looked at the certificate and saw that the conclusion given by the certificate was: sapphire (filling processing).

This is normal. The plasma implantation method requires the injection of titanium ions into the sapphire to improve the color, so the conclusion given must be a natural sapphire that has been artificially filled.

Although the treatment effect of this sapphire is not at its best, it can already be used on the table.

Thinking of this, Song Tao became a little worried, and didn’t know where his experiment on the melt element extraction method was going?
