While Professor Qi was still hesitant, Yan Fei had already turned around and ran: "That's all for the matter; I'm off now. You guys think it over, and if you need anything, ask finance for money. We can keep in touch by phone."
In Yan Fei's mind, Professor Qi would definitely agree. Seeking acclaim isn't great, but since it's been tied to the benefit of the country and its people, just for that reason, if they needed to use Professor Qi's name in the future, even if he was reluctant, he would most likely acquiesce—maybe he would even mention it in his will, to be disclosed when it wouldn't cause much of a stir years later.
According to Yan Fei's estimate, that will surely wouldn't mention his 'theft' of someone else's research results, but only his 'usurping' of his disciple's honors.
