Chapter 059: You Big Idiot
"Let's talk about matter waves." Professor Woodgate said, "John, you know, we have a brilliant theorist on our team, and we have a team that is very experimental. This time, our experiments will prove our theory, and yes, we will try to prove the theory of matter waves by designing a completely new electron diffraction experiment. ”
"Professor, you said in your letter that you want our company to help you manufacture the experimental instruments you need--- special glass instruments similar to vacuum tubes. I think that as long as you give detailed design drawings and technical standards, our engineers and technicians can accomplish this task --- great physics task. John Morris said confidently.
The professor smiled, "Oh, that's great, thank you very much!" ”
"Professor, it's my pleasure to serve you." John Morris politely added, "The molecular beam method is an exciting experimental technique, and although the patent for the molecular beam method belongs to you, you have disclosed the detailed technical details, which is equivalent to you dedicating this technology to the world." You have earned my respect, and I believe you have earned the respect of the whole world. I wish you success in your electron diffraction experiments, and if your electron diffraction experiments lead to a new technique, we are interested in working with you to advance this new technology. ”
Yours, a company that manufactures telephone equipment, actually came up with the idea of cutting-edge technology?
Bell Labs is not yet established. Solid state physics, surface physics, and even conceptual theories have not been produced – because quantum mechanics has not yet been born.
John Morris, why is your lead value so high?
Li Kangping's heart tightened, could it be that the wheel of history no longer rolls according to the original trajectory?
"Let's wait until our experiment is successful." Professor Woodgate said noncommittally.
"Okay, no problem. Professors, and all of you, it was a pleasure to spend the day with you. ”
Overall, Woodgate's corporate visit was very fruitful.
The next day, Woodgate received a check from Westpower for $5,500.
The money is in place, and the physicists are busy.
The four members of the Woodgate team performed their own duties, they processed the experimental device, and the personnel who supervised Xidian processed the experimental device, prepared the crystals, and tirelessly read the technical literature, everyone was very busy, and they were busy tirelessly for a common academic goal.
Li Kangping's task is to manufacture and process electronic collectors, which is an extremely delicate job. Li Kangping can assemble a super-regenerative circuit board in four days, but he can't make an electronic collector in four days.
One of the difficulties of this project is the processing of the experimental setup, which takes about 40 days or even longer to complete the entire set of electron diffraction experiments.
"Oh! Damn it! Alan, you big idiot! Do you grind corroded crystals like that? Stop, stop now! ”
"Oh! Damn it! Mark, you're doing an electron gun, not Browning! ”
"Oh! Plum! My dear Lee, even you seem to have done something wrong, right? ”
"Professor, I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, this part should be installed like this, I did it according to the drawings, didn't I?"
"Let me see, let me take a good look, is that how it is installed? Let's do it first, after all, I've never touched this kind of electron collector before. Since you're working entirely on the drawings, you're fine. ”
All experimental parts are brand new and errors are inevitable during machining.
In fact, no one has any experimental experience in this area, and it is normal to make mistakes.
A low-level mistake that can be seen at a glance - whoever makes such a mistake will be scolded by the professor.
"That's all for today's work."
Li Kangping picked his tired arms, although he likes to do experiments, but he has a great historical mission, and he can't spend his whole life in the laboratory.
Ideally, I put forward a directional academic idea, and a group of experimental dogs under my command will do experiments according to my ideas, and after the experimental results come out, a group of application dogs will do large-scale applications.
It's really boring to be a dog again.
Li Kangping walked out of the laboratory and looked up at the sky, you see, the floating clouds in the sky are like a giant dragon.
Today is the gathering day of the Chinese Alumni Association in New York, and Li Kangping went to the 43rd Street apartment to attend the party.
Charles Strauss, the Jewish capitalist is here again.
Regarding Charles Strauss, Li Kangping's feelings are complicated.
Charles Strauss did help his Chinese classmates, which is commendable.
For Li Kangping personally, the Manhattan Zeus Company was also arranged by Charles Strauss for his subordinates to help with it.
On the other hand, the Strauss family completely cut off the business of exporting mahjong from Guangzhou to the United States, causing heavy losses to the Li family...... To correct it, the Li family company did not lose money in the mahjong export business, but it lost a new way of making money.
The so-called cutting off people's money is like killing parents.
All in all, Li Kangping was deeply wary of Charles Strauss.
Will Jewish capitalists help the Chinese without expecting anything in return? They definitely had an intention.
"Hey, Lee." Charles Strauss sat in a chair smoking a cigar, looking unhappy and expressionless.
"Hey, Mr. Strauss." Li Kangping maintained the necessary etiquette.
Business is business, human favor is human affection, grievance is grievance, scene is scene, one yard is one yard, see people talk about people, see ghosts talk nonsense, some people are people during the day and ghosts at night, then people talk nonsense depending on the situation.
Li Kangping exchanged a few words with Charles Strauss, not talking about business, but only about friendship.
Looking around, Li Kangping didn't see Liu Shaowen, Brother Shaowen was busy with business, and he might have to come over later.
Li Kangping cruised around the living room with a wine glass and chatted with his classmates.
"Xiuyu, I haven't seen you in January, you seem to be more beautiful." Li Kangping said sincerely to a female classmate.
"Brother Kangping, thank you for the compliment." Xiuyu giggled, and she generously exchanged various news and anecdotes with Li Kangping.
Li Kangping remembers that these female classmates came to New York last fall.
At that time, they were all wearing white summer cloth mid-sleeved tops and blue cloth skirts, and when they first came to New York, they were plain and faceless, with their long hair curled into a bun, simple and reserved, and even a little submissive.
Looking at Xiuyu at this time, her hair was cut short, she wore dark red lipstick, and wore a woolen navy skirt, the whole person was fashionable and sexy. She is no different from an American girl in her current dress, and her words and deeds are gradually Americanized.
Looking down at Xiuyu's stocking-wearing legs, there was a pair of unwrapped feet. Xiuyu is a Chinese new-style woman, and her parents should not be conservative.
