Tianwan

From his Institute of Materials exchange visa being revoked to China leaving ITER, Xiao Le's mood this month was like a slide, sliding all the way to the bottom.

Xiao Le waited for a month at home; he basically wasted the entire month. Every day, he'd browse arXiv, track the latest major research institute trends, or help his mom walk the dog.

He was the only one that could understand the pain of being pulled out of unfinished research.

He hadn't heard any news from Professor Li yet. He didn't know if Professor Li hadn't found a new research project for him to do or just temporarily forgot about him.

The Institute of Materials had no further arrangements for the PhDs that were sent back from General Atomics. It seemed like they didn't have a plan for what they should do.

After all, after the withdrawal from ITER, many collaborative ITER research projects were suspended. There were a lot of people who had to reschedule their work.
