Chapter 470: Did You Really Only Talk About Math?
Controlled nuclear fusion is not an aircraft cannon or a missile atomic bomb, and although the name has the word "nuclear fusion" in it, it is not something to be done on the sly.
Therefore, the location of relevant research units does not necessarily have to be on the Gobi Desert, nor can it be placed on the Gobi Desert.
Talent is one of them.
The second is communication.
Just like the International Space Station program, this kind of major systematic engineering is often not a task that a single country or organization can undertake. The same is true for controlled fusion engineering, where competition is always there, but cooperation is still mainstream.
If you have to turn the plane several times and then turn the train a few times to have a meeting, then I am afraid that this meeting will not need to be held.
At the beginning, the Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences wanted to engage in tokamak, and circled an island on the shore of the beautiful Shushan Lake in Luyang.
Lu Zhou felt that Jinling was good, so he drew a circle next to the Purple Mountain, and the project was settled in Jinling.
The official written documents will have to wait for a while before they come out, and before that, Lu Zhou plans to return to his alma mater.
First, the building of the Institute of Computational Materials, in which he invested 100 million yuan, was finally completed, and second, for the plan to control nuclear fusion and the blueprint of the general high school institute in his heart, he also needed to win the support of Jinling University.
Sent Lu Zhou to the door of the hotel, Manager Wang said with a smile.
"Professor Lu won't stay a few more days?"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "No, I'm busy with work, I can't be idle, so I'm leaving." β
Manager Wang: "Then you go slowly." β
Lu Zhou nodded and walked to the black red flag parked on the side of the road.
The suitcase he carried with him was already in the trunk, and he didn't need to worry about these chores personally.
Seeing Lu Zhou fasten his seat belt, Wang Peng, who was sitting in the driver's seat, started the car.
"Where are you going?"
"Airport!"
β¦β¦
Jinling University, Administration Building.
Sitting at his desk, Principal Xu, wearing glasses, is meticulously handling official business.
At this time, there was a knock at the door.
Stopping the pen in his hand, Principal Xu cleared his throat and spoke.
"Please come in."
The door opened, and an unexpected figure appeared in the doorway.
Looking at Lu Zhou standing at the door, Principal Xu was slightly stunned, then put down the pen in his hand and stood up from the office chair with a smile.
"Professor Lu? The wind is blowing you, please come in. β
Looking at the documents on Principal Xu's desk, Lu Zhou smiled politely: "It was a little sudden when I came, I just got off the plane, so I didn't disturb your work, right?" β
Principal Xu smiled and said, "Nobel laureates are coming to visit our school, and it's too late for us to welcome them, so why bother?" But you came back quite suddenly, why didn't you say it in advance, so we didn't have any preparation on our side. β
"What are you preparing in advance, I'm just coming back to see my alma mater, so I don't have to make so much trouble," Lu Zhou smiled and put the tea in his hand on the desk, "I brought some tea back." β
Principal Xu excused himself and said, "I can't accept such a valuable gift, you should take it and send it to Lao Tang and Lao Lu." β
Lu Zhou said with a smile: "What's so valuable about this, it's just two bags of tea, and I keep Professor Tang and Academician Lu's share, so don't be polite." β
After some pleasantries, the two sat down on the sofa.
Principal Xu instructed his secretary to make two cups of hot tea.
In a casual tone, Lu Zhou spoke.
"Probably next year, I will return from Princeton, if Principal Xu doesn't mind, I may have to bother a lot in the future."
"How can you mind?" Principal Xu smiled and said, "If you are willing to come back, it is no problem to give up my position as the principal to you." β
Lu Zhou hurriedly said: "That's not necessary, it's no problem for me to be the director of a research institute, let me run a university, forget it." β
He's busy enough with his research, and if he really wants to be the headmaster, I'm afraid I'll have to split him in half to be busy.
Moreover, the elimination of talents with administrative posts is precisely what he himself opposes.
After taking a sip of tea and moistening his throat, Lu Zhou straightened the look on his face and began to get down to business.
"This time I went to Shangjing, and I met the elders."
Hearing this, Principal Xu also restrained his laughing expression and changed his serious expression.
"You talked...... Is it convenient for me to ask? β
"It's not a confidential thing, the written documents will probably come down soon, so it doesn't hurt to talk about it in advance."
After a pause, Lu Zhou continued, "...... In addition to some technical things, we mainly talked about academic things, including some history of mathematics. β
Principal Xu: "History of Mathematics? β
Lu Zhou nodded: "That's right." β
"Throughout the history after the Renaissance, mathematicians are an extremely sensitive group to the environment, the center of mathematics in the last century was in Europe, the French Bourbatin School and the German Gogentine School were equal in academic attainment and influence, but in less than a quarter of a century, the Gogentin School was almost completely wiped out, the Bourbatine School also declined, and the center of world mathematics has shifted from Europe to North America since then."
"I've learned a lot over the years I've been studying at Princeton. Whether it's about the knowledge itself, or about the academic culture. β
"Drawing on the experience of history and reality, my biggest personal feeling is that academic prosperity is inseparable from an open academic environment. So at that time, I proposed to him that I should build a general high court in Jinling, engage in pure academic research, and achieve de-bureaucracy and depoliticization in academics. β
After listening to what Lu Zhou said, Principal Xu nodded.
Born in scientific research, he is well aware of the impact of academic bureaucratization on the efficiency of scientific research.
As a proponent of education reform, he has also made some efforts to change this.
Although some policies may not be formulated satisfactorily, in terms of attitude, he undoubtedly supports the views put forward by Lu Zhou.
Especially for Lu Zhou's plan to establish the general high court of China, they discussed this issue a long time ago, and he expressed his position at that time.
It's just that support is support, and it will be difficult to really implement it......
"I agree with what you say, but I'm afraid it's hard to implement. Especially depoliticization, which is basically impossible in the domestic environmentβ"
Lu Zhou: "He agreed. β
Principal Xu's eyes widened and he looked at him in disbelief.
After a pause, Lu Zhou continued: "He said that my own research institute can be done whatever I want. It doesn't matter if it's messed up, if it does, it can be promoted on a limited scale. β
This limited scope naturally refers to Jinling University.
But in fact, whether to promote it or not is secondary to Lu Zhou.
He sees himself not as an educator, but as a scholar.
All he needs is an academic environment that is comfortable for him and allows him to quietly pursue his research.
As for political appeals, he didn't use that kind of thing, and he wasn't very interested.
However, in President Xu's view, these conditions proposed by Lu Zhou are simply incredible.
Especially if the high-level can still agree, this is even more incredible.
Principal Xu couldn't help but ask, "Are you really just talking about mathematics?" β
"Of course it's not just math," Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly, "before that...... We also talked about controlled nuclear fusion. β

(Hand hand...... The challenge exploded more failed, but today ...... I sure! οΌ
