Task 2 is chosen, the system space is exited, and the consciousness returns to reality.

Standing up from the desk, Lu Zhou was about to go to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee, when he heard Xiaotong's surprise cry coming from the living room.

"Dude! You're on TV! ”

"TV?"

Repeating in confusion, Lu Zhou walked to the TV and looked at the picture on the screen.

The screen shows the Krafoord Prize, where he receives the medal from the King of Sweden, and the narrator's statement is a personal introduction to him.

Then the screen then shifts to a laboratory at a university.

Professor Krell, who was being interviewed by a reporter from Columbia TV, said in an excited tone.

“…… Maybe half a year, maybe a year, you can use a smart phone that is on standby for a week. In a few years, you will be able to see Truss with a range of thousands of kilometers outside of PPT...... Believe me, my bragging is definitely more reliable than yours. ”

The interview continued.

It lasted a full two minutes before moving on to the next news item.

Lu Zhou turned his head and saw Xiao Tong looking at him with sparkling eyes, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

“…… What's wrong? ”

Xiaotong asked excitedly, "Brother! What the hell is that patent? ”

Yo, I'm good at learning English.

Can you even understand a rough idea?

Lu Zhou glanced at his sister unexpectedly, and replied casually: "Patents related to lithium batteries, materials science, you don't understand it if you tell you specifically." ”

"Patents?" Xiao Tong's eyes sparkled, "Is it worth a lot?" ”

This little money fan!

I know money all day long, knowledge is the wealth of civilization, can it be measured by money?

Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head.

To be honest, he doesn't know how much money he has in exchange.

But with the criticality of this technology, it should be a lot of money.

"Want to know?"

Xiao Tong looked curious and nodded vigorously: "Mmmm!" ”

"If you want to know, read well. When you have the ability, help me manage the money in the future, and you will know how much these patents are worth. ”

Although, it can only be watched.

Throwing down this sentence, Lu Zhou smiled, and regardless of how Xiao Tong behind him protested, he turned around and walked towards the computer desk next to him.

The feeling of pretending to be forced to run away is really exciting.

……

Originally, Lu Zhou thought that just a paper would not bring much change to his daily life.

When he proved Goldbach's conjecture and won the Clafford Prize, the media coverage made his name widely known, but it did not affect his life, at least when he walked down the street and no one came to shake his hand.

And this is also the reason why Lu Zhou did not refuse to be interviewed.

But the paper, published in Nature, is completely different.

For the general public, who simply don't know the difference between lithium batteries and lithium-ion batteries, the sensational effect may not be as intuitive as Goldbach's conjecture, but for the battery industry as a whole, the paper has produced an almost crazy sensational effect......

Although he didn't walk down the street and was asked for an autograph, his phone rang all day long.

"Hello, Dear Professor Lu Zhou, we are Silicon Valley Jermeison Nanomaterials Co., Ltd., we are quite interested in your modified PDMS thin film technology published in Nature Chemistry, are you interested in technical cooperation with our laboratory?"

It's time to talk about cooperation again......

After the phone was connected, Lu Zhou had a headache on his face, pinched his eyebrows and said.

"I'm sorry, I'm busy right now, and I'm going to give assignments to my students in a moment. If it's something important, you can say it more clearly, and if it's nothing, I'll hang up. ”

Hearing Lu Zhou's tone of impatience, the other side hurriedly sped up his speech and said.

"That's right, we have a cooperative R&D agreement with Umicore on electrode materials, if you plan to sell your patents, through our R&D agreement, we can help you get a higher price——"

Hanging up the phone, Lu Zhou turned off the phone and threw it on the sofa, then got up and went to the kitchen, took out two eggs from the refrigerator, and began to prepare breakfast.

This is the 16th call he's received since Nature and Science highlighted his article.

Truth be told, if the industry recognizes the technology, Lu Zhou is happy to license it to a reliable company to generate it in exchange for a certain return.

After all, it is impossible for him to produce it himself, and laboratory preparation and industrial production are two completely different concepts. Even if the patent fee can win him a certain cost advantage, Lu Zhou is also very clear that this advantage will definitely not be able to fill the disadvantages of a series of problems such as production experience, raw material channels, product research and development, etc.

He had time to worry about these things, so he might as well do something else.

The best option is to license the patent to the relevant company and charge a certain royalty.

However, when the time comes, you can consider registering an offshore company in a place like Cayman and hiring a few experts to do patent management.

As for setting up factories for production, forget it.

However, what made Lu Zhou a headache was that most of these calls were from places such as "Massachusetts Institute of Technology XX Materials Science Laboratory" and "Silicon Valley XX Materials Technology R&D Company", and most of the issues discussed were patent cooperation.

However, when asked about the content of cooperation, they all want to be two dealers.

But the problem is that Lu Zhou is not stupid, and the initiative is in his hands.

He is very aware of the value of his patents, and this value is irreplaceable, and when the time comes, it is natural that there will be people from the enterprise side to negotiate licensing matters with him, and there is no need to let a certain research institute make a profit in the middle.

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Xiao Tong, who was wearing pajamas, walked out of the bedroom and asked while yawning.

"Dude, who were you talking to on the phone just now?"

"Nothing, the one who sells insurance."

Bringing the finished egg and bacon sandwich to the table, Lu Zhou replied casually while pouring a glass of milk for Xiaotong.

Sitting at the dining table in a daze, Xiaotong tilted his head: "But I heard the patent." ”

This guy hasn't woken up yet, but his ears are quite bright.

Lu Zhou: "......"

Seeing that the elder brother didn't speak, Xiao Tong's eyes rolled and proposed: "If you can't make up your mind, why don't you ask Sister Shanshan?" She's an MBA student at the University of Pennsylvania, so it's easy for her. ”

Lu Zhou looked at Xiaotong unexpectedly: "Where did you hear about her professionalism?" ”

He remembered that he had never told this little guy what Senior Sister Chen was learning.

Xiaotong rolled her eyes and said speechlessly: "We have a chat on WeChat." Speaking of which, have you forgotten that I majored in finance? Sister Shanshan also gave me a lot of useful advice. ”

Lu Zhou: "...... I'll ask if necessary. ”

Taking a bite of the delicious sandwich, Xiao Tong sighed, shook his little head in an old-fashioned manner, and said vaguely while chewing: "So man, it's not okay not to take the initiative, don't wait for the time...... Oops! What are you doing, it hurts! ”

Xiao Tong, who was knocked on the forehead, covered the top of his head and looked at Lu Zhou with an aggrieved face.

He didn't use any strength at all, knowing that this expression was pretended, Lu Zhou glared at the little guy.

"At a young age, what do you have in your head all day?"

No matter how pitifully those big eyes looked at him, Lu Zhou, who had settled the little guy's breakfast, turned around and returned to the kitchen.

With his sandwich in his hand, he walked to the computer desk and sat down, and Lu Zhou routinely logged into his email before starting work.

Coincidentally, there was an unread email lying in the mailbox.

Guessing which laboratory it was most likely stuffed over, Lu Zhou was about to throw it into the trash when the hand holding the mouse suddenly stopped.

MRS Meeting Invitation?

His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a look of interest appeared on his face.

Interesting.
