The next day, Rupert was negotiated, and on the third day, on a connecting flight from Western Europe to Shangjing, and then to Yangcheng, Rupert had already embarked on his career in Chinese studies.

[Humans with 95.1 potential for scientists have been detected, please pay attention to the host]

As soon as Lu Yi, who came to pick up the airport, saw Rupert's figure, a system prompt rang in his mind.

There's something about this old guy.

Lu Yi was stunned, after traveling around the major laboratories in China for the past two months, and often coming into contact with the top group of academic and scientific research leaders in China, he had discovered a pattern of systematic scoring.

According to the physiological state of the person, the active state of the brain's thinking is about 40 years old as the dividing line, and the potential will begin to decline after the age of 40.

Although the data of the entire academic community shows that the age of 40 is the time period when a scholar's achievements explode, most of these achievements are actually the result of accumulation before the age of 40.

If he remembered correctly, Rupert is 49 years old this year, and the influence of physiological factors has already caused his potential to enter a period of slow decline, and he can still maintain a potential value of 95.1, then 15 years ago, when this guy was young, his potential was estimated to be more than 97.

"Lu, I really didn't expect you to be younger than in the photos, you must have a lot of troubles when you look so handsome."

Lu Yi was in a daze, but Rupert recognized him, and walked up with his suitcase and wanted to give him a hug cordially.

"Sorry, I'm not gay!"

Lu Yi, who reacted, hurriedly dodged away, shook his head and said: "I know I'm handsome, but I don't need a man to praise me, and it's a compliment from a 50-year-old man who wants to be completely bald, it's terrifying."

If you had been able to put this kind of thinking about sycophants into research before, I dare say that your research would have broken through a long time ago. ”

Foreigners are naturally enthusiastic and simple, a hug is nothing, but if you add the words of praise and praise for your handsomeness before the hug, Lu Yi will feel goosebumps, and Jing Min will not thank him.

"Oh no, Lu, I'm not like you."

Rupert shook his head and said: "Those damn capitalists, you don't learn to say good things and pat their ass, sometimes even if you are good at research, they will ignore you, and I will have no funds without consortium investment, I have been used to this all these years." ”

"Well, from today onwards, you don't have to go against your heart to say nice things and make sycophants, which is not what we scientists are good at.

We should put more attention on scientific research, on exploring the unknown mysteries of the natural universe, and on promoting the development and progress of civilization, rather than on other messy things. ”

Lu Yi looked at Rupert, who was already a little rickety, but he felt a little sad in his heart.

A scientist with a potential of more than 97 at a young age should be completely focused on scientific research for the country, the nation, and even civilization.

But the practical factors, the system of capital, made him have to put a lot of thought into saying good things and making sycophants.

"The matter on the German side has been dealt with, have the family arrangements been made, this is a contract agreement for you, which indicates the annual research funding."

took out an agreement from his bag and handed it to Rupert, Lu Yi asked the security personnel around him to help take his luggage, and then walked outside the airport and said, "I'll take you back to your residence now, I still have something to do in the afternoon, and I'll take you to the lab tomorrow." ”

"There's nothing to arrange, 15 years ago, my wife divorced me because she disliked me for staying in the lab every day, and the children were raised by her, and I could see them once a month in addition to child support."

"You ask them if they are willing to come to Huaguo, and I can help arrange it." Lu Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then suggested.

"No, Cecil is 16 years old and a grown young man, and his mother has educated him very well, and I am very relieved.

His dream is to become a painter, and it's a good dream, at least not to stay in the lab like I have for a long time. ”

Rupert shook his head, opened the agreement in Chinese and English to check, what was the clause on it had been swept away, and when he saw the research funds indicated in the back, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and exclaimed: "$2 billion a year?" ”

"$2 billion, I told you on the phone, and then the entire controlled nuclear fusion laboratory will be handed over to you, and $2 billion a year is about the same for this laboratory."

Lu Yi nodded, the animal test of cancer suppression drugs has been completed, and the next step is human clinical trial.

This human clinical trial is not too difficult in a country with a population of 1.3 billion and millions of cancer people.

Because cancer is waiting for death in the later stage, since both horizontal and vertical death, many people will try this drug with an attitude of trying, not to mention that such drug trials almost have a lot of trial fees for patients who receive drug trials.

When people are going to die, leaving something for their families so that their lives can be better in the future, this is the simple idea of many people.

After the cancer suppressant drug completes all the new drug trial process in these two months and is officially launched, then money and funding will not be a problem at all.

"But $2 billion a year, that's too much...... $1.8 billion, oh no, $1.5 billion is enough, $2 billion is too much, too much! ”

Rupert was taken aback, even if he was researching a precious baby stellar, he hadn't spent so much money, and he couldn't even come up with a $2 billion research plan.

Because he has no experience, let alone 2 billion US dollars a year, he used to have 500 million 800 million a year, and he laughed.

In the past few decades of research career, which year has not been tight, and it is only a few months ago that the WEGA stellar was sold, and the funds on the laboratory's books were much more abundant.

"Now my role is the boss and the investor, and how to spend the funds is your business as the head of the laboratory."

Lu Yi shook his head and said: "I only have two requirements, the first is that all expenses should be spent on research normally, and there will be a number of professional financial institutes to cross-review the financial expenditures of the laboratory every year, and the second is that you have to spend the $2 billion for me every year, and if it is not enough, you can apply again." ”

"I'll do my best." For the first time, Rupert felt the trouble of spending money.

"It's not an effort, it's a certainty, and if you can't spend it, you'll live in the lab."

Lu Yi corrected the old guy's attitude and said: "When I take you to the laboratory tomorrow, I will give you a copy of my next research plan, there are some projects that need the assistance of the controlled nuclear fusion laboratory, and 2 billion US dollars a year will be spent on you, you have to cooperate to give some results." ”

After discovering Rupert's potential as a scientist, he changed his mind and decided to push him down so that he wouldn't waste that potential.

Of course, the persecution of scientists cannot be the same as that of ordinary bosses and employees, but in a different way, a way that most people in the world will envy and yearn for.

To ensure that 2 billion US dollars a year is spent, and at the same time must be spent on research normally, so that if there is no result of research without any progress, then Lu Yi estimates that he has to find out the low system and beat it up, because it lies about Rupert's potential as a scientist.
