Chapter 280: The Same Failure

Paul refused to give up, "Mr. Chen, just listen to it." ”

"Don't talk about this, by the way, what happened to the villa in Xingangtan that I asked you to pay attention to?"

Chen Feng diverted the topic, and Powell really got into the trap.

"Hey, I have great news for you, but it's not time yet. I'll be sure to let you know when the time comes. ”

Chen Feng gestured with an OK gesture, "I'll leave it to you." You know, my time is worth more than money, I'll take a break first. ”

Successfully gagged him, Chen Feng sat quietly at the airport.

The Boeing 777 roared into the air.

But it is said that Boston, thousands of kilometers away, has long been waiting for it.

On the plane, Chen Feng did not rest, but kept sketching this action in his mind.

He knew how difficult things were, after all, he had already failed once in the previous timeline.

He didn't want to experience the same failure twice.

Being able to predict the future does not necessarily mean that failure can be easily avoided.

The Linton Institute's obstruction of Ryan was not an individual act, but an inevitable ideological confrontation between two world powers with different philosophies.

Even if Chen Feng tries to change all the people he wants to see today into another group of people who seem to be less extreme and friendly, he still can't change the final result.

Some things are deeply ingrained, and what Chen Feng needs to face is a whole huge ideology, which does not show obvious differences due to individual differences.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Feng, accompanied by the agent connector from Boston, walked into the Linton Research Institute.

The agent is a tall blonde and blue-eyed girl named Liwen Aniston, very cheerful and talkative, with a master's degree from MIT, proficient in English, Chinese, Japanese, French, and German.

"Mr. Chen, this meeting was attended by Dr. Laurson, Dr. Ilen, and Dr. Veronmano...... Here is the list, with a brief introduction to each of the principals. ”

Chen Feng looked at it as he walked, his brows gradually furrowed.

In the 21st century, he did not deliberately understand the academic bulls of this era.

However, Chen Feng has seen these names in the history of science and technology in this century compiled by later generations in the 31st century.

Chen Feng probably knows them better than they do.

All of them are big bulls, and almost all of them are Nobel Prize.

But not right now, some people are still in line, some people haven't made enough hard results.

Of course, this group of people has a common characteristic, they are not very friendly to Chen Feng's motherland, and they can be regarded as diehards.

However, this group of people still hold power with AAAS at the Linton Research Institute, and they are all difficult to deal with.

Chen Feng, who was on the last timeline, should not have understood why these people were obviously scholars, but they were completely unreasonable, and finally walked away in anger at the meeting.

He also lost his temper, and drew a clear line on the spot, saying that don't be unpredictable, if you have the ability, you will not get along with me for old age.

The two sides broke up unhappily.

Although two years later, when the Xingfeng Research Institute continued to burst out of power, the influence of "Crazy Conjectures" continued to expand, and even the Nobel Prize could not be put on his head, these people finally apologized to him, and solved Ryan's legacy problem very sloppily.

Chen Feng's slap in the face was very cool, but the wasted time couldn't be recovered.

Now it's different, he first understands the position of others, and then no matter what these people say, he can find other people's motives.

Chen Feng felt that even if it could not be negotiated this time, the result would not be worse than last time.

"Thank you, I get the most out of the situation."

Chen Feng handed the information back to Liwen.

"Mr. Chen so fast?"

Liwen asked in surprise.

It only took seven or eight seconds for her to add up the information to Chen Feng, and she finished reading it?

Chen Feng smiled and nodded, "I see things relatively quickly." ”

Liwen Aniston believed, after all, this was the genius scientific thinker who could write "The Madman's Conjecture".

Yes, because Chen Feng has no work experience, and there is no practical verification process in the "Madman Conjecture Collection", the current general understanding of Chen Feng in the academic community is to give him the title of a scientific thinker.

Ten minutes later, the two entered the conference room, which was empty.

Chen Feng looked at his watch, "At 4:15 in the afternoon, isn't this the time we made an appointment?" Got the wrong room? ”

Liwen was slightly embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry Mr. Chen, they may have a regular meeting in the conference room upstairs, I'll take a look, you wait here." ”

Ten minutes later, a group of old white men walked in a mess behind Liwen.

Chen Feng, who was sitting in the chief seat at the bottom of the conference room, raised his eyelids and raised his hand, even if he had said hello.

He could understand why his previous timeline was gone.

It stands to reason that these people should attach great importance to the concept of time, and if they make an appointment at four o'clock, then it must be four o'clock.

This is deliberately ten minutes late, and it is clear that it is a dismount, which is very inferior, but it is very effective in provoking people.

These people were slightly dissatisfied with Chen Feng's attitude, but they were no better, and they didn't have a seizure on the spot.

Dr. Laurson, vice president of the Linton Institute, who presided over the meeting, applauded meaningfully and welcomed Chen Feng's arrival.

"Linton Institute welcomes Mr. Chen Feng, a world-renowned music producer......"

There was a lot of nonsense crackling, and Chen Feng didn't bother to listen carefully.

The title given to him by the other party is a music producer, which has nothing to do with learning, and this is the second time that he has opened his eyes and said nonsense.

Although the influence of "The Madman's Conjectures" is still in the making, and it is indeed impossible to do without experimental demonstration, all of you here are people with brains, and they should know the weight of this monograph.

Putting aside his identity, it means that everyone is not professional, and we don't care about your mood.

Chen Feng didn't hesitate anymore, and after the other party shut up, he immediately said loudly: "Everyone, my purpose today is very simple, it is for my research assistant Dr. Ryan. I'm not going to say anything about convenience. What to do, what to do, buy out the money for the last two months of Ryan's contract, I will give as much as I want. ”

"I asked him to sign the confidentiality agreement he should sign. I'm poaching him to let him do my project, I'm not interested in spying on your stuff, and I don't need to. I hope you don't make things difficult for me, and don't do any strange things outside of the contract, your country flaunts the spirit of the contract, then I hope you can all abide by the spirit of the contract. ”

"Ryan was in early breach of contract, so I lost money and I kept the spirit of the contract. If you really refuse, then wait for two months, and then I will ask him for legal status, and you will not stand in the way of me and him. ”

The crowd was a little stunned.

Speaking so bluntly is their own style, Chinese usually do not speak like this, always like to go around some twists and turns, and then coldly throw out the intention.

Chen Feng is so straight to the point, and his feelings are very unique.

Laurson turned his head to look at Dr. Ellen next to him.

At the executive level, Ryan's previous project team was under Dr. Ellen's direct management, and it was time for him to take a stand.

Dr. Ellen pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and said, "Mr. Chen, there is an unwritten saying in our AAAS. Academic practitioners should do what is best for humanity. ”

Chen Feng raised his eyebrows, "How do you say it?" ”

Dr. Ilen: "Contractually, Ryan chose to leave, and we couldn't refuse. But judging by his personal development and the contributions he can make to humanity, we hope that he will stay at the Linton Institute. We are well aware of the academic atmosphere in China. There is an old Chinese saying that people are noble and self-aware. There is also an old saying, called pearl dark casting. ”

After Iren finished speaking, most of the others echoed it, and the meaning was very different.

In summary, only if Ryan stays in Boston, he will be able to make more useful achievements, put his ingenuity to good use, and even have a chance to become the next scientific leader like Enrique Fermi.

If he goes to China, then he will not have a chance to win the Nobel Prize in this life, and will only fall into the black academic quagmire full of fraud, lies, fraud, and seniority.

Most of these people have watched "Crazy Man's Conjecture Collection", and they have vaguely heard that the newly established Xingfeng Research Institute will challenge the ultra-high-precision project of room temperature superconductors, of course, they understand Chen Feng's awesomeness, but the national position in their hearts makes these academic bulls say things that may be against their intentions or their intentions.

Chen Feng quietly watched these people who were obviously standing at the top of the academic pyramid talking all kinds of nonsense.

The shamelessness of the learned people is really a set of sets, which is breathtaking.

This is a little too thick-skinned, it is clearly discrimination, but it is justified.

The world is never black and white.

It's the same everywhere.

No country can be absolutely perfect, absolutely fair.

Kindness and integrity have always been just a floating, relative trade-off.

These things they depict do exist in Chen Feng's motherland, but they cannot be generalized.

But it's not the utopia they claim to be preaching.

Living in the 21st century, it was the first time for Chen Feng to stand on such a high-level platform and come into contact with this disgusting feeling.

How sad.

The ugly side of human beings seems to be hidden deeply, but after seeing through it, it only feels rotten and pungent.

But he wasn't too surprised.

In the past timeline, either all mankind was brainwashed by "Song of the World", or experienced the blood and fire trial brought by the S fungus together, or was suppressed by Lei and faced the danger of extinction that could come at any time, and the human race really stood together.

If it weren't for the next two ultimate civilization tests, I'm afraid that the fear of a crisis in the solar system barrier alone would not be enough to make this disgusting ideology disappear completely.

Chen Feng closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

He felt that his past self was still himself.

The nature of the country is easy to change, and it is difficult to change.

Even if you are mentally prepared, it seems that you will experience the same failure this time.

He's going to squirt, a little harder than last time, and sooner.

"Good for humanity? Are you sure? Chen Feng sneered coldly.

Everyone could see his impending outburst, but Laurson nodded calmly, "Yes." ”

"When I'm stupid?"

Chen Feng tapped the table lightly, "If you were telling the truth, you wouldn't have played such a hypocritical game with me." He is not wise that is not wise for himself? All I hear from Dr. Ellen is discrimination in your words. ”

Dr. Ellen: "Mr. Chen, you're too sensitive, I'm just thinking from a scientific point of view. ”

Chen Feng stared at him expressionlessly, "Science? How? Doing things here is for the benefit of humanity? When you go to me, it becomes harmful? Who gave you the courage to say that? ”

"You are so hypocritical, too shameless. In your words, I heard a feeling that only Americans are considered human beings, and Chinese are not considered human beings. If you like the ancient Chinese saying, I'll give you another sentence. It's you. ”

"You don't understand, do you? I'll translate it for you, and you'll have to put up a gorgeous epitaph when you become a bitch. ”

This time, Chen Feng's words were heavier than those in the previous timeline.

He vaguely remembered how he was mad at that time recorded in the historical materials, but at the same time, he had a different state of mind, and he would not adopt the same attitude in the face of the same thing.

The source of his anger was that at that moment he suddenly felt that these people were sorry for Scott, Gaius, Lawrence, and Marech, their descendants.

Their seemingly ordinary confrontation in a small-scale meeting today has also caused global distress for the next recruitment of the Xingfeng Research Institute for two years, judging by the amplified impact of the butterfly effect, they have a far-reaching impact on the progress of civilization, and they are really guilty.

Ideological hatred does not shift by the will of the individual.

Because human beings are social animals, it is difficult to be independent from the world, and they will always be affected by the environment around them.

No matter how smart and rational a person is, no matter how many books he or she has read, if his/her parents, family, and friends have instilled in him/her every day how dangerous another country is and how selfish people in another country are, then as this person grows up, the doubts and discrimination hidden in his heart are almost destined to become more and more ingrained with the improvement of knowledge, and then self-reinforce in the interaction with others.

Those things that are used as examples to instill sometimes are not necessarily all lies, but only need to deliberately ignore the good side of the truth and focus on the ugly side, then hatred and prejudice will naturally form.

This generation grows up with prejudices, and they will say the same things at the dinner table and do the same things subconsciously with their own children, and eventually form regionalized biases that last for hundreds of years, maybe even thousands of years.

It is precisely because of the existence of people like Laurson, Ilen, and Velenmano that a huge obstacle has been set up for the elimination of prejudice for future generations, and it has moved towards a very short vicious competition, otherwise maybe in the last timeline, Chen Feng would have succeeded.

The words at the beginning of B are quite capable of arching the fire here, and as soon as Chen Feng's words came out, this group of people immediately exploded.

Liwen Aniston can't play a round if she wants to.

This group of academically respected and world-renowned bulls have spoken out angrily.

Chen Feng only smiled and looked at this group of people who thought they were rational and neutral, but in fact they were completely living in the prejudiced siege of the environment.

However, when it comes to scolding the street, they are unprofessional after all, and their physique can't keep up, Chen Feng is expressionless and has no emotional ups and downs throughout the whole process, which makes them feel very unaccomplished, as if they hit the cotton with all their fists, and gradually shut up one after another.

"Are you all done?" Chen Feng smiled, "Okay." The French biologist Pasteur once said that science knows no borders, but scientists have a homeland. I don't completely deny that, but you've taken it too extreme and done it in moderation. The result of being too extreme is to form a hypocritical and selfish personality that you hide under the surface of a scholar, and you are trapped in it without knowing it. ”

"My words are so plain that I don't believe you don't understand. The truth should have become clearer and clearer, but there is a voice in your heart that tells you. I understand, and I have to pretend I don't understand. ”

"But I can tell you explicitly. No matter how great you accomplish, you will have a mixed reputation in the history of mankind. Your descendants will pay more than you can imagine for your selfishness. ”

Dr. Veronmano: "You're threatening us? Who are you threatening us? ”

Chen Feng shrugged, "Look, your prejudices are so straightforward, you can't even hide them." Don't think of me as narrow-minded as you, my eyes have never stayed on the gains and losses of a city or a place or even a country, or even on the earth, there is only one way out for mankind, stepping into space, this day will not be too far away. ”

"Besides, I'm still going to poach people, and I'm not just going to poach Chinese. In my territory, regardless of skin color, regardless of race, it doesn't matter where I come from or which cemetery I will be buried in when I die. I have only one purpose, to get more people to come to me and do more. ”

Chen Feng gradually made a decision.

He knew where the narrow-mindedness of these people came from and how it would develop.

In the past, he let him go, and he thought that he couldn't change it.

But after going through the last timeline and watching the Spokesperson War that lasted for nearly 400 years, he decided to try to do something.

"I support competition, but I don't support your narrow competition, and I can even tell you how many directions I want to focus on breaking through next. I'll just name the project I'm going to work on and you'll find out. If you are not convinced, then try to fight with me. ”

Seeing that he was suddenly going to take the real guy out, the group immediately shut up.

"The United States has the most complete and creative scientific research system in the world, and it also has the best scientific researchers in the world. Whatever exactly you're going to study, we don't need to care about you. ”

Chen Feng grinned, "Really? The ultra-pure carbon element technology for making ultra-high computing power carbon structure computer chips, the technology of non-attenuation infinite recycling of large-capacity batteries, the technology of low-attenuation microwave and high-load power transmission, and the real quantum computer programming concept that you cannot hope for...... Don't you want it? ”

There was a sudden silence in the room.

When they heard Chen Feng's plan, these people couldn't hide their shock.

Reason told them that Chen Feng might be bragging.

But emotionally, he told them that it was really possible for the man who wrote "The Madman's Conjecture" to do it.
