It's been two days since I came back from Shanghai.

Zhongshan International's villa.

Sitting in the study on the second floor, while Lu Zhou was studying the calculations on the scratch paper, the video call request suddenly popped up from the lower right corner of the computer.

Seeing the video call from Shi Xiaotong, Lu Zhou stopped the pen in his hand, held the mouse and pressed the connect button.

As soon as that lively and lovely face appeared on the screen, the excited voice couldn't wait to come.

"Brother, you're on fire!"

Glancing at his sister with a little star in her eyes a little inexplicably, Lu Zhou hesitated and asked.

"I ...... What's wrong with it? ”

Xiaotong: "Do you remember the paper you gave me a few days ago?" Professor Krugman got the report for you and pretended to be ...... Oh no, published, now the entire economics community is working on your l-z model! If you can go on Facebook, follow any macroeconomics community and you can see people discussing it! ”

Lu Zhou: "L...... z？ ”

Xiaotong said excitedly: "Hmm! It was named by Professor Joseph himself! ”

Lu Zhou: "......"

mmp！

The level of these economists' names is really worse than the other.

He had a little expectation before......

Coughing lightly, Lu Zhou continued: "Is this the case? ”

"That's all there is to it! That's already a lot of, okay! And there's more," Speaking of which, Xiao Tong in the video sat cross-legged on the chair and continued with a mysterious expression: "It is said that ...... Someone has already written a letter of recommendation to the Nobel Prize Committee recommending you to run for this year's Nobel Prize in Economics! ”

Looking at Xiaotong's excited look that was even more proud than his own award, Lu Zhou shook his head with a smile: "You, it's better to pay more attention to your own studies." As for what Nobel Prize in Economics...... In contrast, I was a little interested in winning another physics prize, and I was much more likely to win the prize than this economics prize, but I have not been contacted by anyone so far. Obviously, it's not so easy to win two Nobel Prizes, so don't worry about me. ”

Xiaotong stuck out his tongue and said, "I can't afford to provoke it, I can't afford to provoke it, give the big guy a good hand." ”

"Okay, don't talk to me poorly, go about your own business, your brother and I have to be busy, not as idle as you."

As soon as he heard the elder brother say that he was idle, Xiaotong suddenly argued unhappily: "Where am I free, I'm also very busy!" As soon as I got back to Princeton, Professor Krugman gave me a bunch of tasks, and I now have to go through at least two articles a day and take notes...... I've only been enrolled for less than two weeks! It's a labor oppression! ”

"This is also called a matter," Lu Zhou suddenly became happy when he heard this, "I have to introduce a few of my students to you when I have time, and you won't complain when you see their workload." ”

If you are given a task, it is interested in training you, and if you really squeeze labor, it is to throw you some mechanical, repetitive work that does not get any promotion, and in the end the thesis is not on your name.

It can be seen that Professor Krugman is still very serious about cultivating Xiaotong, whether it is for his face or not, Lu Zhou still has a record of this favor in his heart.

After a few words with Xiaotong, Lu Zhou turned off the video call and returned his attention to the paper in his hand.

Looking at the dense calculations, Lu Zhou, who suddenly felt a headache, sighed heavily.

"I have to decide whether to go or not by June......"

"Well, if only the Riemann conjecture could be as simple as the L-Z model."

The conference of mathematicians in St. Petersburg, he was actually quite interested in going to see it.

But since he has chosen to make the progress of the Riemann hypothesis the content of the 60-minute presentation, if he can't make enough achievements to match it, even if the mathematical community will tolerate him, a warrior who dares to challenge Mount Everest, he himself will not be able to come to the stage with a cheeky face to talk about something obvious.

Shaking his head, Lu Zhou, who put aside the distractions in his heart, returned his attention to the paper in his hand, and began to launch a new round of challenges towards the crown that had dominated the mathematical world for a century and a half......

……

Just as Lu Zhou continued to study the notes in his hand, Li Tinghui, who was far away in a conference room of the Star Technology Branch in Shanghai, finally got the first financing contract in his life.

Although, what is written on the contract makes him love and hate......

From the beginning to the end of the contract, he looked at Mr. Chen, who was sitting across the conference table, with a somewhat reluctant expression.

"Sixty percent...... Isn't it too high? ”

It's rare for a startup to give up 60% of its shares in an angel round, and even 30% is quite rare.

If he signs, it means that he will directly change from the status of the largest shareholder to a worker working for Star Technology. Even more than that, it will have an impact on the subsequent A and B rounds of financing.

No venture capital company will invest in a company whose founders have lost absolute control of their own company, unless Star Technology has no intention of continuing to raise funds at all.

However, regarding Li Tinghui's argument, Chen Yushan sent it back with only one sentence.

"I think that's the most appropriate option and the only thing we can accept."

"We have an independent R&D team......"

Taking a sip of tea, Chen Yushan asked lightly.

"How does it compare to the Institute for Advanced Study?"

I don't know if I was shocked by the CEO's aura or stunned by the name of the Institute for Advanced Study, but this time Li Tinghui couldn't say a word of argument.

With a slight tap of her index finger on the desk, Chen Yushan slowed down her speech and continued.

"I actually don't agree with Academician Lu's idea, he is not an excellent businessman, in my opinion, he is simply doing charity."

Seeing that the young man looked nervously, she continued.

"We can do our own research and development of wireless charging pile technology, we have a good relationship with Shanghai, Jiangsu Province, Zhejiang Province, want to get a wireless charging pile enterprise out of the problem, at most just spend a little time to promote the business, and cultivate people who are familiar with this aspect of the business."

Speaking of this, Chen Yushan smiled and said jokingly in a tone that didn't seem like a joke.

"How? With an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, should you consider coming to work at Star Technology? ”

The smile embedded in the pear vortex is like a blooming cornflower, blooming with breathtaking charm and cruelty like a demonic gaze.

Although he also knew in his heart that any financing was not doing charity, even if he had a series of backgrounds such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and supporting science and technology enterprises, he still did not expect that the plan proposed by Mr. Chen would be so aggressive.

"Mr. Chen, you are laughing......"

Taking a deep breath, Li Tinghui's eyes struggled slightly, but he finally signed the financing agreement.

No way.

Although at a great cost.

But the resources that Star Technology can provide him with are really terrifying.

Whether it is the relationship with the government, or the strength of technology research and development, or the cash flow in hand. As Mr. Chen said, even if they are set aside and rebuilt with a "CC charge" or "DD charge", there is no pressure at all.

Really......

I'm still too young.

Looking at Li Tinghui, who signed the financing agreement, Chen Yushan nodded approvingly.

"Very good, from now on, the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study will set up an independent research institute on wireless charging piles, and your research team can go to Shanghai from now on. As for those who don't want to pass, just cut it. ”

"As for you, I need you to stay here in Shanghai and move the management team from that small office building in the suburbs to this side of Pudong New District."

"But"

There was no intention of listening to the rest of his words, Chen Yushan said indifferently: "This is a problem you need to consider, I am only responsible for sending money, and then arranging the resources you need." You move the company next to us, it is only good for you, there is no harm. ”

This devil ......

Taking a deep breath, Li Tinghui nodded heavily, carefully put away the financing contract, and turned around and left the office.

He hopes that his decision today is the right one.

I also hope that one day in the future, I will not regret my sloppiness today......

Looking at the gently closed door, Chen Yushan smiled and shook her head.

Still a little too young.

Star Technology does have the ability to be a charging pile company, but ability and energy are two concepts.

Choking and Strange Novels|w~w~w.

If he does enough homework, he will find that patent management is the core business of Star Technology. Star Technology, which focuses all its energy on this area, is unable to spare energy to lay out the power output market of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration while taking into account the heavy asset industry such as the Space Shuttle Assembly Center, which is related to the national strategy.

In such a situation, it is the best choice to finance a potential charging pile company and support it.

This kind of development idea is actually the same as the logic of Star Technology's own non-production of electric vehicles and lithium-sulfur batteries. Taking part of the risk, how can it be comfortable to sit on the ground and collect money on the entire industrial chain?

As for "disagreeing with Academician Lu" and "intending to set up a fully controlled subsidiary to enter the charging pile market", it was just a casual remark she made, and she didn't even bother to think about it.

Of course, even if this Li Tinghui can think of this, there is actually no good way.

After all, the resources mastered by Star Technology are exactly what he needs, but he is only a potential investment object for Star Technology.

"Hey, I really want to go back to the head office early...... The traffic and air here are far worse than those in Jinling. ”

Stacking the documents on the conference table, facing the empty conference room, Chen Yushan, who had been out of work for a short time, stretched her arms forward like a cat, and rested on the table for a while.

The tough expression swept away from her face, and she rolled her lips and blew a few bangs on her forehead, muttering a whisper of complaint.

"That guy, don't call me when he arrives."

"Eighty percent closed him up again."

"Phew! You deserve to live with math for the rest of your life. ”
