Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

"Let go."

"I don't let go unless you promise not to go!"

"..."

Lu Zhou looked at the black line and looked at Professor Sarrot holding his thigh. Is this guy really a professor at Cornell University?

If you change him, you can’t pull this face...

Woolf was stunned and squatted there, and it took a while to get back and rush to help his employer.

But he still took a slow step, and Sarrot himself let go.

Because Lu Zhou promised him, give him five minutes to give himself a reason to choose him.

Driven by the desire for survival, Professor Sarrot did not talk nonsense, and immediately sat down on the sofa and said immediately.

"For five million dollars, I will sell my Sarrot Institute to you. I believe that the entire Silicon Valley cannot find a research institute that is cheaper than me. I don't want anything else, what patents and what research results are you. As long as you let me stay in the research team."

This is not a fake, five million dollars to sell the entire research institute, almost equivalent to selling the equipment in the institute as a broken iron.

Even if the same equipment is found in the second-hand instrument market, it is impossible to find a cheaper price than this. Moreover, the instruments bought in the second-hand market are quite unreliable in all aspects, especially on cutting-edge equipment. A slight error may cause others to fail to repeat your results.

When the price was quoted, Sarnot’s heart was also bleeding.

Even when used equipment is sold, these instruments can sell for seven or eight million dollars as long as they find the right buyer.

However, this is not a question of money.

However, Lu Zhou is obviously not so simple to be convinced by him. After all, the scene when the two first met, it is so shocking that he is still impressed with the leather shoes that fly on the podium.

"And then watching you swindle with my name?"

Professor Sarrot dissatisfiedly argued: "What is swindling? Do I have to use research funding to buy a car or pick up a girl? No! All the money I spent on the experiment! Everything I do is for science. If I don't have to exaggerate the way to portray the wonderful prospects for those outsiders, then no one will save for my research..."

Lu Zhou did not put Sarto's sophistry in his heart, but the offer of five million dollars is indeed far below his psychological price, making it difficult for him to refuse.

In fact, to be honest, I can be a professor at Cornell University, and the level of Sarrot is definitely there.

In a place like Silicon Valley, a doctor who can operate a sem electron microscope to collect images can pay 100,000 yuan a year, but can direct a group of doctors to do experiments, and the Mavericks who successfully complete the project can still find some effort.

After all, these people often have their own projects, and unless they are unable to refuse, they will not be willing to work for others.

In the field of materials science, Sarto is not even a big cow, the Mavericks are still worthy. Although I like to run a train full of mouths, there is at least no obvious stain on the academics.

If you have to use the standards of the saints to ask him, it seems too much.

After weighing the balance, Lu Zhou decided to give him a chance.

As for whether you can grasp it, just look at himself.

After a pause, Lu Zhou slowly said, "I can give you a chance."

Sarot’s face was filled with joy and he was preparing to speak, but Lu Zhou was robbing him in front of him and continued: “But I must tell you that there is only one chance, if you want to stay in my research team, I hope that you are honest enough, especially don't want to fool me with those 'honest mistakes'."

Sarot did not hesitate, patted his chest and assured Lu Zhou: "In the name of God, I swear to you."

Lu Zhou is indifferent: "I am sorry that I am an atheist, I will use a contract to bind you."

Sarrot made a helpless expression and shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't care.

Lu Zhou looked at Woolf next to him and signaled him to take out the contract.

Woolf looked at Lu Zhou with some hesitation, as if he was asking with his eyes, "Is this suitable?"

However, when he saw his employer nodded, he did not say anything. He took out the contract from the briefcase and quickly wrote the amount and other information in the blank with a ballpoint pen.

Standing up from the sofa, Lu Zhou looked at Sarrot and said: "The contract believes that you have already seen it. It is only the amount. Of course, you can take it slowly. I will go around the institute first. Turn, if you are optimistic, call me."

......

Sarrot is very smart.

He knows exactly what he needs, and he knows what a really important thing is for a scholar.

The reason why the big cows are big cows is not because of the genius of their heads, but because they can always get research funding, and someone will always pay for their research.

For the field of materials science, almost all the results are piled up by money.

Without the support of research funding, a "siene" can't be sent. And if you can't send "siene", it means no results. Without results, no one will invest in him.

In a sense, the relationship between academic status and research funding is like hens and eggs.

As long as he has the former, the latter is not called for him at all.

It is for this reason that when the last investor divested, he borrowed a loan from the bank and bitten his own money to the instruments in the institute that were almost sold as broken because of divestment. Bought it.

It is for the same reason that he will sell the institute together with himself to Lu Zhou for a loss of five million dollars.

The research team didn't care, but staying in the hand can only watch it moldy.

It doesn't matter if he gives him less money. Five million dollars is enough to pay the loan he owes to the bank.

Although this means that he will have nothing and has to come back again, he believes his choice is correct.

With this big man to do the subject, the first thing to do is not to worry about the matter. Even if Lu Zhou’s own money is not enough, there will be a lot of companies willing to pay for him to continue his research.

As long as he can produce results, as long as he has a place on the paper, he will be willing to do it even if he is allowed to work.

On the day when the results came out, no one was more accountable than his past. No one would care about how he had been unwilling. He would become the authority of Cornell University in the field of battery materials. His alma mater would be proud of his name...

His instinct tells himself that this day will not wait too long, this investment is definitely worth it!

It didn't let Lu Zhou wait too long. After Sarrot saw the contract from beginning to end, he signed his name at the end.

In addition to a transfer contract for the Institute, there is an employment agreement and a confidentiality agreement.

Lu Zhou hired him as the head of the institute for an annual salary of 100,000 US dollars. As for the salary increase or other benefits, he saw his own follow-up performance.

After talking about the contract, then it is the matter of research.

After letting Woolf go back one step, Lu Zhou plugged the u disk into the laptop and called up the molecular model he redrawed with hyperhem software.

Looking at the spherical structure that appeared on the screen, Sarotht's eyes showed an interesting look.

"this is?"

Lu Zhou: "This is what you don't need to know. In fact, besides mathematically deducing some interesting things, I am not sure about its value. I need you to do some experiments for me according to my requirements. , verifying some of my guesses about calculating materials. If you do what I want, I will make your name appear in the paper."

Said, Lu Zhou clicked the mouse.

The graphics on the screen begin to change, and at the same time, he continues to explain.

"More information I can't provide to you, I can only tell you that this is a graph obtained by the fullerene material and the carbon nanotube material. According to the chemical language, the two are Carbon nanospheres obtained by π-bonding of materials."

Sarrot frowned slightly, staring at the model for a moment, and asked: "It sounds like a good subject, but how do we fuse the fullerene material with a carbon nanotube?"

In fact, what he most wants to ask is, what is the use of this gadget, but the expression on Lu Zhou’s face is obviously not intended to explain to him, so he also put this sentence in his heart.

Lu Zhou glanced at him with a look of mental retardation: "This question is well asked. If I know how to synthesize this thing, what else do you need?"

Sarot smiled and realized that he had asked nonsense.

Without paying attention to him, Lu Zhou continued: "In a few days, people with Star Technology will come to contact you. As for research, I will contact you by mail. In addition, I will check your research regularly every month. schedule."

"In addition, I will be at the University of California at Berkeley these days. If you have any questions, call or come to me. Any questions?"

Sarnot shook his head immediately: "Nothing."

Lu Zhou nodded.

Now that the contract has been signed, the account of the account is clearly explained, and it is not necessary to stay here.

The research funding issue will be contacted by Professor Starot from Starry Technology, and the experimental project will start at the latest next month.

Copy the data to the computer, Lu Zhou put away the u disk ready to leave.

However, at this moment, Sarrot suddenly thought of something and said.

"Right, now this research institute is already yours. Will it be inappropriate to continue using my name? I mean, will it be renamed Lu Zhou Institute?"
