First of all, it is necessary to determine, is there a supplier of bamboo raw materials in the United States?

Mr. Zhou, who is well-connected in the United States, said that there are Chinese-run bamboo gardens in California and Florida. Mr. Zhou made several long-distance phone calls to Chinese friends in California and Florida, saying that he could guarantee the supply of bamboo, and the purchase price was to be discussed in detail.

Li Kangping also said, we initially took six acres of land to build mahjong factories and warehouses, and planned to recruit 50 people, with an annual production capacity of 15,000 mahjong pairs. Brother Shaowen is asked to estimate the initial investment costs.

The monthly salary of a worker in the Panyu mahjong factory is 8 yuan, but the cost of workers in the United States is expensive, and you have to pay at least $12 a week to hire a worker in New York. Based on the size of 50 people, the annual salary of the worker is more than 30,000 US dollars.

So how much does it cost to build a factory and warehouse with 50 people?

The construction team in the United States charges very high fees, according to Liu Shaowen's estimates, the construction of factories and warehouses will require at least 65,000 US dollars.

After all the miscellaneous calculations, before the workers were hired, an initial investment of about $100,000 was required.

The Manhattan company had $60,000 in its books, and Mr. Lee had a few hundred dollars in cash.

In other words, there is a lack of money for the initial construction of the mahjong factory, what can I do?

"I have savings of 20,000 US dollars, although it is small, I hope Kangping will accept it."

At the critical moment, Mr. Zhou reached out to help.

Mr. Zhou has served the Geng Foundation for many years, and he receives a salary and US dollars.

In addition to Mr. Zhou's assets in China, he is willing to provide $20,000 for funding.

Liu Shaowen worked at Citibank for two years, and he was also the person who received the salary in US dollars, and he gave 1,500 US dollars.

After negotiation, Manhattan Zeus Company established a board of directors, with Li Kangping as chairman and Mr. Zhou, Liu Shaowen and Li Chong as directors.

Li Kangping holds 75% of the shares and is also the president of the company.

Mr. Zhou holds 15% of the shares and is also the vice president.

Liu Shaowen holds 7% of the shares and is also the chief financial officer.

Li Chong holds 3% of the shares and is also the technical director.

The shareholders signed an agreement, and the current capital of Manhattan Zeus Company is more than 80,000 US dollars, and the shareholders decided to start the Manhattan Zeus mahjong factory project.

Liu Shaowen quit his job at Citibank to concentrate on serving the Manhattan Zeus Company. He suggested that the factory should be built first, and if it was built to the size of two or three acres, then borrow money from the bank.

Of course, it is not known whether the bank will agree to the loan and how much it can lend.

We don't know if we can apply for a mahjong production license.

All in all, we have created a precedent for mahjong manufacturing in the United States, feel the stones to cross the river, and take one step at a time.

The initial construction of the Zeus Mahjong Factory in Manhattan was handled by Liu Shaowen and assisted by Li Chong.

Li Kangping returned to academia, and he went to Professor Woodgate's office with the manuscript of the paper "Matter Wave".

"Hey, Lucy, is the professor in there?" Li Kangping asked the secretary.

Lucy smiled brightly, "Mr. Li, you are very lucky, the professor is here." ”

"Have a nice day."

"So are you."

Li Kangping entered the back room and saw that the professor was reading the literature.

"Li, are you here and brought any good news?"

"Professor, I think so. This is my new paper, please take a look. Li Kangping presented "Material Wave".

"Matter waves?"

The mere title of the paper sparked Professor Woodgate's attention.

After reading the abstract of the paper, the professor lit a cigarette and turned to the last page to read the conclusions.

"Matter Waves, Matter Waves, Matter Waves......

The professor muttered to himself, he snuffed out his cigarette and said, "Lee, you know, I wouldn't be surprised that you could write such a paper. But I can't finish this paper right now, and I can't finish reading it in a day or two, so can you give me a week? ”

"Okay, Professor, I'm looking forward to getting your advice. Good bye. ”

No further ado.

A week later.

Li Kangping sat in Professor Woodgate's office again.

"Li, I have finished reading your "Matter Wave", in fact, I have finished reading your paper, it does not mean that I have completely read it."

"Huh?"

"I don't know if I'm right or not, but in this paper of yours, you generalize Fermat's principle and Moppet's principle of minimum action to four-dimensional space-time, and correspond them to four-dimensional space-time. The phase harmony theorem, which in turn relates the intrinsic frequency of the periodic phenomenon of matter to the wave frequency of the wave of matter. Lee, do you want to express the idea that every particle of matter corresponds to a wave of matter, and you give the wavelength formula λ=h/p of the wave of matter, so in your opinion, the wave of matter is a real wave? ”

"That's right, Professor, that's what I think, matter waves are real matter waves."

"Oh God, my God!"

The professor shouted, "Lee, my dear Lee, your paper is so creative and revolutionary that I don't know how to ask questions!" What I just said is just quoting the original sentence from your paper. ”

"Lee, you wrote this "Waves of Matter" in order to answer the doubts of Einstein, Sommerfeld, Bohr and me. But this paper is so revolutionary that even if I can accept it, I'm afraid no one else will! Others even included Albert Einstein, Sommerfeld and Bohr! ”

"To be exact, my main feeling was shock, but I didn't seem to have fully embraced the theory! Lee, you mentioned the experiment, and you said that the existence of material waves can be proved through the diffraction experiment of the crystal to the electron. I think, you can do the experiment first, my laboratory will use it for you, you can use it as you want, and I will solve the cost. ”

Professor Woodgate said a lot, and it was clear that he was blown away by Matter Waves, and he was also interested in knowing if there really were matter waves.

Li Kangping said: "Professor, I am grateful that you spent a whole week reading my "Matter Wave", I thought could it be like this, my paper was published first, and I did verification experiments while going through the publication process?" ”

"Li, think about the space quantization experiment, you shouldn't have forgotten this experiment! Oh no, let me think again, the theory of space quantization was proposed by someone else, and our job is to use experiments to prove it. You came up with the theory of matter waves, and you are the provers of experiments. ”

When the professor was used to smoking, he lit a cigarette and said, "Lee, you're already an APS member, and you know a lot of other APS members, including the editors of Physical Review, so you can contribute to Physical Review yourself, and I certainly wouldn't object to you doing that." ”

Li Kangping nodded and said, "Okay, professor, then I'll do this?" ”

"Wait." The professor thought for a while, and he said, "Maybe my level is not as high as you think, but I can realize the importance of this "Matter Wave", and its academic value may be higher than that of the Woodgate-Lee experiment, or even the value of the theory of space quantization and the whole set of quantum theory!" Li, don't rush to submit your manuscript yet, let me ask the editor-in-chief of Physical Review. ”
