When Jiang You signed the contract in the capital, Du Qiu took Jiang Danfeng and Chen Zhiyang to the Institute of Quantum Physics in Qingyun Mountain, intending to win the support of Academician Hou Chengzong and increase the bargaining chips for promoting the expansion of the university.

Qingyun Mountain is only more than 160 meters above sea level, the shape of the mountain is like an inverted shell, the southeast side is a mountain cliff, steep and steep, the northwest side is a gentle slope, slowly down, the Institute of Quantum Physics is a product of the Cold War period, the site selection is very particular, just at the junction of the south side and the west side, which can not only take advantage of the mountain to cover the safety, but also does not affect the material traffic.

The area of the institute is not large, only sixty or seventy acres, several scientific research buildings were built in the 60s, with a typical Soviet style, square and stable, and the residences are expanded in different eras, so the style is very chaotic, there are brick houses in the 60s, there are tube buildings in the 70s, and single-family buildings in the 80s.

Hou Chengzong is the only academician in the institute, the status is very high, living in a two-storey building, the door is fenced with a yard, the left side raises flowers, the right side grows vegetables, very a little bit of chrysanthemum under the east fence, leisurely see the hermit style of Nanshan.

As soon as Du Qiu parked the car outside the courtyard, he saw Hou Chengzong walking out of the room, and hurriedly pushed the car door to greet him: "Teacher Hou, Happy New Year." ”

"Xiao Du, your tail has been cocked up lately. Hou Chengzong held up a newspaper and rebuked angrily: "Advertising Einstein is too much and insulting to the sages!"

"Teacher Hou, don't be angry, it's just a photo. Du Qiu went to the trunk to carry gifts, while explaining: "This photo has been used by countless businessmen for decades, made into T-shirts, mugs, dolls, etc., Einstein himself didn't mind when he was alive, and personally made postcards to send everywhere, I got the authorization through formal channels, it's okay to advertise, right?"

Hou Chengzong studied theoretical physics, and there were no scientists in this field who did not regard Einstein as an idol, so he was very angry that Du Qiu used him as an advertisement, and although he was angry after listening to the explanation, he was still unhappy, and teased: "You put your face over and let me feel how thick the skin is, it's really a pug biting the moon -- I don't know how high the sky is! I am not ashamed to compare myself with Einstein." ”

"Teacher Hou, you haven't known Du Qiu for a day or two, when has he ever been ashamed?" Jiang Danfeng helped ease his cheeks, pulled the down jacket and said: "I have touched his face many times, it is thicker than this dress!"

Hou Chengzong raised three sons, all of whom worked in the field, and lived in the institute with his wife, the days were a little lonely, when Snapdragon was working here, Jiang Danfeng knew and was interested, and often came to visit the door, cultivating a lot of goodwill, and his face eased a lot when he heard the words, and said: "Danfeng, Xiao Du looks honest, in fact, he can jump more than Sun Monkey, you watch him closer." ”

"Yes, yes, I must keep an eye on him, you hurry into the house, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Chen Zhiyang took out a tote bag containing two bottles of wine from the Audi he was driving, and said with a smile: "Du Qiu, it's good that you brought Danfeng over today, otherwise Hou Lao wouldn't let you go so easily." ”

Du Qiu hugged the cardboard box full of various local products, and said with a wry smile: "I feel that Teacher Hou resents Brother Chen for dropping out of school and is angry with me. ”

"Dayou can't help it, the company has a lot of things, and I really don't have the energy to write papers, so I can only drop out. ”

Chen Dayou used to study for a doctorate with Hou Chengzong at the Institute of Quantum Physics, and when his thesis was halfway through, he founded Snapdragon with Du Qiu, and then ran around the world, and he had no heart and interest to continue writing his thesis, Chen Zhiyang had reprimanded him several times, and strictly ordered him to complete his thesis and get a doctorate, but since the successful financing of iView in November, he has changed his attitude and simply handled the withdrawal procedures for his son, it is better to drop out of school directly, at least to retain the relationship between teachers and students.

This approach turned out to be very clever, and Hou Chengzong regretted that Chen Dayou gave up his degree because of his career, but he had a better impression of him, and the two families moved around more frequently.

"Old Hou, Dayou bought two bottles of red wine from California and asked me to give them to you, you can give you a taste to see if there is any good in France. ”

"If you buy the right California wines, the quality is no worse than the French ones. Hou Chengzong is a wine connoisseur, took out a bottle from the bag and looked at it, and said with a happy face: "Dayou has a good eye, even the 92-year-old Howling Eagle Winery Cabernet Sauvignon has been bought, this is the best wine, don't leave at noon, accompany me for a drink." ”

"We weren't ready to go. Du Qiu put the cardboard box on the ground, took a Xuanwei ham out of it, put a chef's pose, and said with a smile: "Even the ingredients have been brought, Mr. Hou will not be reluctant to give up the stove at home, right?"

"I can see it, you're not thick-skinned, you're shameless!"

"Hey, Du Qiu is here, why did you make our old marquis angry again?"

At this time, Hou Chengzong's wife came down from the second floor, chatted with everyone for a while, and took Jiang Danfeng to the kitchen, and Chen Zhiyang took out a paper demonstrating the necessity of expanding university enrollment, and asked Hou Chengzong to correct - Du Qiu is not a person in the education system, and he is not familiar with the educational environment in the 90s, so he can only talk about the benefits of university enrollment expansion in a Kan Dashan way, but he can't turn all kinds of benefits into a reasonable and evidence-based thesis, so he handed over this job to Chen Zhiyang, who just needed this political achievement, so the efficiency was extremely high, and the first draft was concocted in two days.

"You're the same as Xiao Du, every time you come to me, it's probably not a good thing. After Hou Chengzong teased, he saw the title of the proposal clearly, his face became serious, and he asked Chen Zhiyang: "Do you want the university to expand its enrollment?"

This was actually Du Qiu's idea, and I thought it made sense, so I helped draft this paper. ”

"Xiao Du's thoughts?" Hou Chengzong was a little surprised, glanced at Du Qiu, and asked, "What are you doing as a capitalist who runs a company, meddling in college admissions?"

"Teacher Hou, don't go online, I didn't interfere in college admissions, I just think there are too few college students now, not enough. Du Qiu smiled and said: "Last year, there were about 350,000 undergraduate graduates, excluding those who went to graduate school and went abroad, 300,000 remained, 150,000 were left after removing the indiscriminate filling and insufficient level, 150,000 were left, 100,000 were left after removing those who were civil servants and foreign companies, and 50,000 were left after removing public institutions and state-owned enterprises.

"Nonsense, nonsense!"

Hou Chengzong scolded with a smile, then put on reading glasses, looked down at the paper, Chen Zhiyang cared about the paper very much, sat in the living room and waited, Du Qiu was very relaxed, ran to the kitchen to help clean up the ingredients for lunch, and was called back after working for more than half an hour.

"Zhiyang's article is well written, clearly organized, detailed data, and very convincing, which is much stronger than Xiao Du's opening up just now. Hou Chengzong has been engaged in science all his life, and he felt that there was no problem with logic, so he immediately accepted it and said: "It is indeed necessary for the university to expand its enrollment to benefit the country and the people, I support this matter, what do you want me to help with?"

President Chen and I want to push several universities in Yuncheng to jointly apply to the provincial government and the Ministry of Education to build a university town in Yuncheng to accumulate experience for the expansion of enrollment. Du Qiu took a piece of milk candy from the fruit bowl, handed it over carelessly, and said: "Teacher Hou is highly respected, and he responds to every call, I hope you can come forward to build momentum for this matter and blow the wind, we are grateful." ”

"Just thank me for a piece of candy?" Hou Chengzong smiled dumbly, threw the milk candy on the coffee table, and said: "You, you, are obviously full of talent, but you are in the eyes of money, and everything is business. Tell me, how do you want to build a university town, and where do you want to build it?"

Seeing him like this, Du Qiu obviously agreed to help, so he stopped gagging, went outside and took a map of Cloud City from the Jaguar car, pointed to the area discussed with Yang Fan, and roughly talked about the idea of building a university town, and finally promised: "Teacher Hou, although I fell into the eyes of money, but I am not a person who loves money like life, if this university town is approved, for every student who settles in, I will donate 10,000 yuan to my university as a scientific research fund." ”

Hou Chengzong didn't take it seriously, shook his head and said: "You have to change your open-minded nature, otherwise you will suffer a loss sooner or later in the future, a student donates 10,000, then if there are 10,000 students, don't you have to donate 100 million?"

"Of course, 100 million is not much, I donate. ”

Chen Zhiyang had more contact with Du Qiu, and seeing that his expression did not seem to be fake, he smiled and said tentatively: "Du Qiu, if you really donate like this, I guarantee that Sanjiang University will be the first to settle in the university town." ”

Du Qiu stood up, stretched out his right hand, and said, "President Chen, let's ask Teacher Hou to testify, with 100 people as a unit, for every 100 students, I will donate 1 million to Sanjiang University, how about it?"

Chen Zhiyang also stood up, shook hands with him, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's make a decision!"

Rao is Hou Chengzong is well-informed and old, and he was also surprised at this time, and only when the two of them let go did they react, reminding: "Xiao Du, college students are very poor, and they may not be able to spend 10,000 yuan after four years of college. ”

"Mr. Hou, I'm talking about donations, not investments, and I didn't want to take them back. ”

"Okay! Xiao Du, if you really donate 100 million, I will open a bottle of the best red wine in the house and get drunk with you. Hou Chengzong also stood up and said angrily: "I'll go tomorrow to help you run errands and try to run this university town." ”

"The veteran will come out, a top two, with Mr. Hou coming forward, the university town will definitely be successful. ”

"Your level of sycophants is far worse than Xiao Jiang, learn more from her in the future. ”

After eating lunch in the short topic of chatting and parents, Du Qiu and Chen Zhiyang played a few games of chess with Hou Chengzong, and did not leave until more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon, but he just drove the car back to the city, and before he saw the shadow of Jingui Garden, he received a call from Hou Chengzong.

"Xiao Du, are you interested in buying our research institute?"

What the heck......
