539 Stoneing you with money
The Centennial of Independence Exhibition is a great event for the whole world, especially for Americans.
In Li Mu's impression, Nikola Tesla will become an American citizen in a few years, so it is necessary to let Nikola Tesla feel the grand occasion of the Independence Centennial Exhibition in advance, which is conducive to Nikola Tesla's further identification with the United States and the Junma Group.
There is no need to repeat this question about how powerful Nikola Tesla is, he is the only one in the world who is called "the closest person to God", and many of his inventions can be described as "black technology" even in the 21st century.
If Li Mu has been smooth sailing all these years just because he has been stained with the light of the traverser, then as long as Nikola Tesla is brought over, it can at least ensure that in the next 50 years, Junma Group can still obtain all kinds of black technologies like a hanging.
Hearing that Nikola Tesla had disembarked, Li Mu immediately lost his mind to Taobao, and compared with Nikola Tesla, the thousands of patents in the patent office were immediately dwarfed.
When Li Mu met Nikola Tesla, Nikola Tesla had been arranged by Li Mu to live in the presidential suite on the top floor of the Clinton Castle Hotel.
The facilities in the presidential suite are naturally perfect, many people often use the toilet inlaid with gold to describe luxury, and in the presidential suite of the Castle Clinton Hotel, there is real gold on the toilet, and when the house was renovated, almost all the metal parts that can be used are made of gold, and it is pure gold.
Obviously, Nikola Tesla's interest is not in the gold that can be seen everywhere in the room, but in the phone in the room, when Li Mu saw Nikola Tesla, Nikola Tesla was tossing the phone, looking at this posture, he had a desire to disassemble and study whether it could be further improved.
After seeing Li Mu, Nikola Tesla was a little at a loss, this is a very thin young man, with a big back, attractive ears, deep and pitiful eye sockets, the corners of his eyes drooping slightly, and the whole person looks full of melancholy.
"Nikolai, welcome!" Li Mu gave Nikola Tesla a big hug.
Nikola Tesla was so nervous that he didn't even raise his hand to give Li Mu the response he deserved, and after Li Mu let go of Nikola Tesla, Nikola Tesla replied in English that he was not proficient: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Ream." β
"Don't be so polite, just call me Reem." Li Mu was very happy, turned around and told Yan Shun to find the tailor, and at the same time asked the restaurant to bring lunch.
In fact, you can cook by yourself in the presidential suite, but Li Mu was not prepared to let Nikola Tesla fire, after all, Nikola Tesla is only a 20-year-old young man, and Li Mu is very skeptical that Nikola Tesla will not cook.
Nikola Tesla is also a fateful life, when he was young, his family was poor, and he even interrupted his studies, and was later recommended to Edison by his teacher, but he fell into the wolf's den, and the whole second half of his life was suppressed by Edison using his power, it is no exaggeration to say that if it were not for Edison's jealousy, Nikola Tesla's fame would definitely be greater than that of any scientist.
In Li Mu's place, of course, Nikola Tesla will not be like another time and space, struggling to survive under the crazy suppression of Edison, Li Mu will help Nikola Tesla solve all his worries, so that Nikola Tesla can truly show his value.
"Mr. Reem, it's a pleasure to meet you." Only then did Li Mu notice that there were other people in the room.
"Allow me to introduce you, this is my teacher, Charles Batchelo." Nikola Tesla mustered up the courage to introduce Charles Bargello to Li Mu.
Charles Bassello is a middle-aged white man around 40 years old, like many people nowadays, Charles Batchelo has a big beard, decent clothes, and looks at Li Mu with eager and envious eyes.
That's right, this is a normal person, and seeing Li Mu is the look he should have.
"Mr. Charles, welcome to New York." Li Mu and Charles Batchello shook hands cordially.
Charles Barcello is Nikola Tesla's Bole, and it was precisely because of Charles Barcello's recommendation that Nikola Tesla was able to join Edison's laboratory.
Although it turned out later that Nikola Tesla was a mistake to join Edison's laboratory, this mistake had nothing to do with Charles Batchero, and in his letter of recommendation to Edison, Charles Batchelo wrote: I know two great people, one is you, and the other is this young man I want to recommend for you.
Li Mu had a very good impression of Charles Batchero, when Henry found Nikola Tesla and expressed his willingness to provide funding to Nikola Tesla for Nikola Tesla to complete his studies, Charles Batchelo was very cautious and fully expressed a teacher's responsibility for students, so when Li Mu invited Nikola Tesla to come to the United States, he also sent an invitation to Charles Batchelo by the way.
"Thank you, Mr. Reem, for your hospitality, we are really flattered." Charles Batchelo understands his weight, although Charles Batchero does not know how much potential Nikola Tesla has in the future, but Charles Batchelo knows very well that if it were not for Nikola Tesla, Charles Batchelo would probably not be eligible to stay in the presidential suite.
This feels right, if it weren't for Nikola Tesla, Charles Batchelo wouldn't even get Li Mu's invitation.
In fact, in the past two years, Junma Group has been searching for talents everywhere, especially after Li Mu began to build the Sparklefield Institute of Technology, the tentacles of Junma Group are all over the famous European universities, Li Mu's goal is to build Springfield Institute of Technology into a world-class comprehensive college, so in the past two years, there are not too many well-known professors who have joined the Junma Group, Charles Barchiro is just one of them, perhaps the most inconspicuous one.
At this time, Yan Shun brought in two tailors, a man and a woman, and they wanted to customize clothes for Nikola Tesla, which was one of the benefits that Nikola Tesla decided to work for Li Mu.
"Sir, don't you have to do that." Nikola Tesla is still a little shy.
It's also normal to be shy, after all, Nikola Tesla is only 20 years old now.
It can be seen from the clothing that Nikola Tesla's family background is not good, the fabric of the clothes on his body is not good, and even at this time it is already summer, but Nikola Tesla is still wearing a thick suit that is common in spring and autumn.
It can also be seen from the clothing that although Nikola Tesla's clothes are not very decent, they are very clean, and the collar of the shirt is seriously worn, but there is still no stain, which makes Li Mu feel good.
People are really different from each other, some people are really different from each other, although some people have a lot of money, but they can't see the slightest cultivation and quality, some people are poor, but they can still adhere to self-discipline and ethics in poverty, which has to make people sigh, some people just can't get on the wall, and some people's success is inevitable.
"Nikolai, don't worry about that, if you feel embarrassed, then use your future performance to prove that you are worth the money." Li Mu gave Nikola Tesla a reason not to refuse.
Nikola Tesla is not a greedy person, and the experience in another time and space shows that Nikola Tesla is not a good businessman, he is a pure scientist, so Li Mu wants to create more emotional bonds for Nikola Steth in various ways, so that Nikola Tesla will concentrate on serving Li Mu and only do what he does best.
The two tailors were both professional tailors, and the older tailor didn't even use a ruler, but circled around Nikola Tesla, casually reporting all kinds of data on Nikola Tesla's clothes, and the little girl who followed the old tailor recorded them with parchment and pencil, which is also the tradition of old European craftsmen, even in the information age, these top tailors are still the same.
Soon, the tailors bowed and retired, and they would later provide a few outfits suitable for Nikola Tesla to use for the time being, and the actual customization would not be completed until two months later.
Li Mu's tailors must be top tailors, even if they are substitute clothes, the quality is much better than the road goods in men's clothing stores, these substitute clothes are not recycled, if Nikola Tesla is willing to save it, if it is not willing to save it, you can throw it away, the cost is of course included in the custom cost.
In order to take care of the appetite of Nikola Tesla and Charles Batchero, Li Mu specially asked the kitchen to prepare the traditional Serbian cuisine of pastrami jerky and preserved roses, which simply moved the two to tears.
When pouring the wine, Li Mu was still apologizing: "I'm sorry, I originally wanted to find the rosΓ© wine you are more accustomed to, but unfortunately the quality is not satisfactory, so I prepared a white wine from Reims, France, hoping to satisfy you." β
Reims, France, the future so-called Champagne region, is known as the purest champagne produced here, and the champagne produced in other regions can only be called sparkling wine.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Ream, we can't put into words how grateful we are, allow me to express my respect to you, you and your Kufma Group have become a legend, and your emphasis and investment in education should put other rich people to shame, it is an honor to join Springfield Institute of Technology, and I believe that she will become a world-class institution in the future." Charles Batchelo is very good at talking, and Li Mu, who is a sycophant, is refreshed.
"Time Magazine" now has an overseas edition, when promoting Li Mu and the Junma Group, "Time Magazine" focuses on the Junma Electric Company and the Junma Affiliated School, one of these two is undoubtedly a high-tech industry, and the other is a project that can be equated with charity to benefit the people, so in Europe, Li Mu and the Junma Group have a very good reputation, although British newspapers are still habitually disdainful of Li Mu and the Junma Group, but outside the UK, more Europeans are not disgusted with Li Mu and the Junma Group.
In fact, even in the UK, there are newspapers that speak for Li Mu and the Junma Group from the position of "fairness and openness", of course, these newspapers are controlled by the Rose Company, so the "openness and fairness" here should be put in quotation marks.
The benefits of capitalism are like this, the most popular term in the world is free trade, and the government should reduce its intervention in the economy as much as possible, so although the British government does not like Li Mu and the Junma Group, the British government really can't shut down the newspapers that speak for Li Mu and the Junma Group...
They don't have that power!
"I believe that Springfield University of Technology will be the best school in the world, we have the best professors in the world, the best students, the most adequate funding, and the most open academic environment, and in a few years, you will be proud of your decision today, and you will be a part of the pride yourself." Li Mu is really not worried about this, education is actually a process of throwing money, and it may not be possible to do well if you have money, but you must not be able to do well without money.
"Mr. Ream, can I work at Springfield Tech?" Nikola Tesla couldn't hold back.
"Of course, as long as you want..."Li Mu first gave a positive answer, and the next words made Nikola Tesla even more surprised, and even panicked: "In my place, you have all the autonomy, if you are willing to study, you can go to any school you want to go to, even if it is MIT and Harvard, if you want to work, you can go to any department under the Horse Group, including the Horse Laboratory, if you have any ideas, you can directly tell your assistant." β
Li Mu plans to set up a special laboratory for Nikola Tesla, either attached to the Junma Lab, or directly placed at Springfield Institute of Technology, depending on Nikola Tesla's ideas.
"Assistant..."Nikola Tesla was a little dumbfounded, the treatment provided by Li Mu was still beyond Nikola Tesla's imagination after all.
Li Mu just kept smiling and didn't speak.
In fact, Li Mu prepared more than one assistant for Nikola Tesla, life assistants, work assistants, cooks, drivers, maids, etc., and Li Mu even prepared a Phantom for Nikola Tesla.
ββ¦ Does everyone else have it too? Nikola Tesla noticed something was wrong.
"Not necessarily, only important people get special treatment." Li Mu told the truth, if this was to provide such treatment for all employees of the Junma Group, Li Mu would have to go bankrupt no matter how rich he was.
"In that case, then I hope I can refuse, I know that Mr. Ream you are a generous person, but I hope that I will be treated accordingly after I have made a corresponding contribution." Nikola Tesla really did not disappoint Li Mu.
