"Thank you, thank you very much!" Professor Jiang thanked the person on the other side of the phone, "With your support and the Ministry of Energy, our project will definitely be launched as much as possible, and at the same time, you are very welcome to come to guide at any time, okay, okay, I know that you have a lot of things to do, and you can understand,"

Hanging up the phone, he immediately changed his face, "Fuck,"

slapped it on the table fiercely, and from the bottom of the drawer, turned out a cigarette, and his hands were a little trembling with anger, so he lit the lighter a few times. ☆→，

I walked to the window, opened a window, and took a few strong breaths to calm down.

Like Liu Jizhong, I feel that the future is very bright, but there is more than one person who is not very optimistic at the moment.

For example, Professor Jiang of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Chinese materials scientist who Feng Yiping once came to ask for a meeting, but at that time it was very bullish, which made Feng Yiping very cold, has some similarities with Liu Jizhong in today's life.

When Feng Yiping came to the door last year, Professor Jiang was full of ambition at that time, and he only felt that with his own unique technology, as well as the bright prospects and funds of this industry, would it be a problem?

I never thought that it was really a problem, and it was a big problem.

After the occurrence of 911, not to mention these venture capitalists, everyone knows that the U.S. economy, on the whole, will firmly enter the downward channel, and the money in their hands is even tighter.

No matter how promising the new project you paint, how can it go to the market. those companies that have always been good and sure?

And the two partners of Professor Jiang originally promised the funds for well-known reasons. None of them are in place, of course, in fact, he himself is the same.

Now he is completely westernized, no longer like his parents' generation, who saved all his spare money in the bank, but like Lao Mei. Either spend in advance, all the savings, the money that can be invested. All of them were exchanged for stocks.

And these stocks, because the stock market fell wave after wave, shrank sharply, fortunately, when Bush Jr. was campaigning. The idea of new energy economy is proposed. Another candidate at the time, the former vice president of Clinton, Al Gore, was a staunch environmentalist and a strong advocate of new energy, which is why Professor Jiang told Feng Yiping last year that he could get funding from the Department of Energy.

However, in this regard, Professor Jiang is a little too idealistic. Can politicians take the promises they made during the election campaign seriously? Is it possible to do it in a day or two? What's more, behind Bush Jr. is the US oil consortium standing up.

In short, Professor Chiang went around Washington, D.C., and asked people everywhere, including Steven Chu, a Chinese scientist who had just won the Nobel Prize in '97 -- the latter was working in the Lawrence Office of the US Department of Energy at this time, and they had been friends several times before, and with the help of Steven Chu, he was given an opportunity to formally introduce himself to the relevant officials of the Department of Energy.

In this regard, he has great hopes, as a well-known scholar in Massachusetts, he knows that the US government has a lot of money, as well as the willingness in scientific research, who knows, the final allocation of funds, only 100,000 US dollars, such a little money, for them want to produce high-performance batteries on a large scale, what is it?

Moreover, the federal government 100,000 dollars, for him, it is really a charity, as proud as he is, although he has been affectionately thanking the person in charge of the appropriation just now, in fact, he has long gritted his teeth with hatred.

Thinking that a year or two ago, those investors, waiting in line behind those who had projects -- some of them were not even projects, only had a general idea, and they were all highly sought after, and now, with world-leading technology in their hands, and regardless of the face of their world-class scientists, their posture could not be lower everywhere, and the result was only such a drop in the bucket, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness and indignation that he was born at an inopportune time.

Facing the window, he even had the same urge to shoot the railing all over like Yue Fei, who knew that in a country like the United States, which is rich and attaches great importance to scientific research, a first-class scientist like himself would have to worry about money if he wanted to do something?

Suddenly, his hand was burned by the cigarette, and he suddenly remembered, now, after Japan, isn't there another place where people are stupid and have a lot of money? Didn't a young man come to the door by himself last year?

However, after rummaging through a lot of drawers, he never found the business card, saying that when others came to the door, how could he have imagined that he really had to go around to raise funds?

When Hamilton was stopped by Professor Jiang at the publishing house, he was still a little surprised, what do you mean when you are a professor in Massachusetts and find me from Harvard Press?

After hearing his intentions clearly, and seeing that he didn't even know that Feng Yiping was in the United States, Hamilton called first and asked, Feng Yiping, who had just returned to Stanford, listened, yo, this is the legendary host-guest eclocation?"

"Hehe, classmate Xiao Feng, you are in the United States now, why don't you tell me?" Professor Jiang, who hit the wall everywhere, is now talking to this young man who didn't take a straight look last year, saying these words very freely, who said that the other party may have the investment he urgently needs?

"Hello Professor Jiang, I'm not a big deal, it's not good to disturb you, your company, is it developing smoothly now?"

"As we expected, it went very smoothly," Professor Jiang opened his eyes without blinking at all and said nonsense, "It's just that, Xiao Feng, I have a message to tell you, we are now considering a round of capital increase, although there are many individuals and companies who want to invest, but I immediately thought of you and won a chance for you, after all, among our compatriots, there are not many people with vision like you, how about it, are you interested?"

Who said that today's scientific research workers don't understand business operations at all? Professor Jiang's remarks are so good that if Feng Yiping, who was originally in his twenties, would have been so excited by him that he might have thanked him, after all, it was him, "I have won you a chance,"

However, the current Feng Yiping is so easy to fool, "Thank you, Professor Jiang, I have to attend class now, it's not good to talk about it in detail, in addition, my business in the United States has a special person in charge, and then I asked him to contact you, how about it?"

"Of course you can, but Xiao Feng, you also know the prospects of this industry, how rare this opportunity is, you should also know that I won the opportunity for you, how to grasp it, that's what you should fight for, right?"

Professor Jiang was not in a hurry at all, as if he had a lot of money and was ready to invest in his project.

"Yes, I know, thank you Professor Jiang, I will let him contact you as much as possible,"

Proud as you, you took the initiative to call, I don't know what the situation is, do you think I am a melon?

"Buchanan," Feng Yiping explained the situation to him, "I am personally optimistic about this project, but I am not too relieved about the main creators, you first inquire about the situation, and then hang their appetite more, there is only one requirement, try to achieve absolute control with the lowest amount, let a few of them, or do what they are good at, concentrate on scientific research, you know what I mean?"

"Yes, that's my old job," Buchanan said with a laugh.

But isn't it, they are better at campaigning than the girls who are pursued by many people at the same time - they will not sentence you to death at once, but they will always make you go through the wind and rain, and you will not see a rainbow in your leisure.

"Hehe, then I'll leave it to you to deal with, but there is one thing that can be clearly promised to them, in the future, we will not be stingy with the real yàn room to which the enterprise belongs, and we will definitely be able to build it according to world-class standards." ”

This Professor Jiang, although there are some minor problems, I have to admit that his skills in this field are really good, and his potential must be fully explored.

Moreover, for a person like him who is a scholar and a businessman, a real room at his own disposal should still be attractive.

Professor Jiang, who was calm and breezy in front of Feng Yiping, waited for an afternoon, but never waited for the phone call that Feng Yiping said, and was a little anxious, "Shouldn't he have no person in charge of American affairs at all, just for the sake of face, is he looking for now? )

ps:ps: Happy New Year, everyone! Greetings to everyone in their old age! Wishing you prosperity! In addition, I'm sorry, this year I went back to my parents' house the most, so I stayed the longest, a record few days without changing, just arrived at night, immediately coded a chapter, but in the first few days there must be a lot of things, may not guarantee two changes a day, please forgive me! busy these few days, must immediately restore the original rhythm.
