In martial arts fiction, there’s a martial art called “transmitting sound into secret”. The speaker can condense his/her voice into a beam and send it directly just to a specific person, and no one else at present can hear it. This fictitious martial art in the novel is now coming true! Li Quan, a senior graduate student from the School of Physics at Nanjing University, with his advisor, has worked out a new technology, that when the speaker is speaking, only the listener in front of the speaker can hear the voice. Sound in other directions will “disappear”. This technology has great applications in underwater acoustics, medical ultrasound, etc. al. And this work has been published in world prestigious journal Nature Communications. What surprising is that Li Quan had once failed his course during his undergraduate study. He started to show his potential and get successful after he changed his major. His advisor cherished his talents and recommended him to continue his graduate study.

When he was in high school, he was often complained by his English teacher for his bad performances on English exams. He also declined his teachers’ suggestion to enter Shanghai Jiaotong University, a prestigious university in China, to take his undergraduate study, but chose to study at Nanjing University…….
