51. Energy Research Centres (1)

There are frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen, which is very appropriate to describe Adrian's current life, a newspaper with the smell of ink was quickly browsed by him, and then he picked up a blank piece of paper to write and draw, and the servants around him kept a tacit understanding and did not come forward to change the dishes, they were waiting for Adrian to leave the table, otherwise they would be scolded or even dismissed if they approached at this time. It was one of the strictest of the castle's rules, and even Sylna would sometimes stand aside and wait for Adrian to finish her business before approaching him.

In fact, Adrian was not worried at all that someone would know what he wrote, because it was not German at all, but a script from the East, not to mention that there was knowledge in Germany, even in the far East to find a few words that had been simplified by him for countless years. Just when Adrian was already frowning, there was a sound of brakes outside the castle, and Adrian's thoughts were also disturbed by the piercing sound of brakes.

Fritz Haber got up very early today, and even set the itinerary the night before and ordered the driver to wait downstairs at his house early in the morning. Before Adrian could tell someone to take a look, he saw a servant leading Haber directly towards Adrian, and when Adrian saw that it was Fritz Haber who had arrived, he couldn't help laughing and hurriedly got up to greet him, and then the servants began to clean up the table.

The reason why Haber came today is very simple but troublesome, that is, to find a suitable place for the cooperation project between the two, that is, to choose a site for the research laboratory. Since the two agreed on their cooperation at the banquet, Fritz Haber began to visit previous investors to discuss cooperation with the Eric Group, and these people were happy to cooperate with Adrian, which made Haber's progress much faster. Then he visited the old classmates, old friends, and there were many who were willing to participate, and most of the rest needed to see what Adrian could offer before making a decision. Fritz Haber was of course very happy to get this result, and he couldn't suppress his inner excitement, and informed Adrian of the news by telegram, but Adrian changed his mind temporarily, and no one except him was allowed to own a single stake in the laboratory, which was equivalent to him alone bearing all the financial expenses. Fritz Haber himself was more resistant, for no other reason, the previous research work had been paid for by friends or companies that favored them, and now that he wants to make it bigger, it is morally unreasonable to kick his predecessors away. But Adrian insisted, and declared that he would be responsible for the losses of those people. Fritz Haber first directly rejected Adrian's proposal, and then Adrian mobilized Haber's friends and colleagues to do work for Haber, this stubborn old man just didn't let go, and Adrian had no choice but to start from the root of the disease, directly with Sheila and the two found Haber's investors, and after a deal negotiation, these investors simply withdrew. Fritz Haber naturally knew that Adrian had left his affairs to negotiate for this matter, and he was also a little moved, and Adrian provided part of the equation as a sweetness, which aroused Haber's mind, so he continued to work. What Fritz Haber didn't expect was that since he was labeled as the Eric Group, the invited work became a social event, and friends from all walks of life came to him and sent him away. The students also came to the door and asked for the opportunity to participate in the research and development work, so that Haber had a good experience of the thrill of being in power.

This time, Adrian and Haber discussed the research room, but now Adrian wants to change it to a research center, the reason is naturally to consider the issue of confidentiality, if there is no technical investment, it is fine, once the technology is invested, Adrian is worried that there will be a possibility of leakage.

Adrian invited Haber to his study, and as soon as the two sat down, Adrian said, "I want to expand the scale, the original research direction remains the same, but the scale will be much larger." ”

Fritz Haber is not surprised that Adrian has such an idea, he also wants to expand the scale this time, after all, there are more people, more investment, and the more problems will arise, Haber thought for a while before saying: "This time I invited a lot of colleagues and friends, and some students also want to participate. I was worried that you wouldn't agree, but I didn't expect you to want to expand the scale and save me the trouble. How far do you want to expand, though? ”

When Adrian heard that Fritz Haber had invited a lot of people, he was very curious and asked, "How many people have you invited?" "It's because Haber spends too much time after the two of them talk.

Haber was a little embarrassed and said, "Maybe it's more, if you have any scruples, I can explain it again." Because he wasn't sure how many people could follow him to jump ship, so he searched all over the people he knew, those he didn't know, and those who had this idea and ideal, and as a result, he relied on the golden sign of the Eric Group to veto it immediately, and when he went back and combed through the personnel again, he found that the number of people was dozens of times that of the small research room before, and this number of people was also a place that made Fritz Haber embarrassed, the more people, the greater the cost, with the increase in the number of people, the venue, equipment, garrisons, The number of managers and the amount of money invested is exponentially increasing.

Adrian playfully asked, "How many are there?" He was now worried that there were too few people, and he was afraid that if he got a research center out, he would be embarrassed if there were not so many talents, and when he heard that Fritz Haber had invited a lot of people, he seemed to be a little embarrassed that he had invited too many people, and he couldn't help but be a little funny, he was really sleepy and sent pillows.

Fritz Haber hesitated and said slowly: "There are 211 people who have agreed to participate in the establishment and research and development of this laboratory, and this is not counting the students who want to take the opportunity to study. ”

Adrian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard that there were only 211 people, although the number was already considerable, but his ambition was even greater than that. It's just that Haber said that there are many students, Adrian doesn't mind at all, the R&D team of 211 people, or Fritz Haber personally invited, the level will not be low, so many people come together, almost draining most of the scientists in the entire German Empire who have made certain achievements in this area.

Adrian lit a cigar and asked, "How many students?" ”

Fritz Haber saw that Adrian was not worried about the number of people, but was very relaxed and bold, and said, "How about not less than two hundred?" ”

Adrian took a puff of cigarette and just took a puff of gold, and when he heard Fritz Haber say that there were two hundred students, he was immediately excited, and he quickly drank a few sips of water before he said excitedly: "Great! The more people, the better! Don't worry about your budget! When it comes to spending on scientific research, I, Eric Adrian, have never been afraid to spend money! As long as you dare to apply, I dare to give! Hahaha! ”

When Fritz Haber saw that Adrian was so happy and willing to invest in scientific research, he suddenly felt that the whole road of scientific research was bright!
