Fang Lang didn't expect that the current university had already begun to carry out experiments and research on machine tools.

This opened the door to a new world for Fang Lang.

"Two old gentlemen, since Germany is now severely restricted, I wonder if I can have the honor of hiring two of them to Brazil to build a new machine tool research laboratory."

For the olive branch thrown by Fang Lang, the two old gentlemen were obviously a little moved, and after glancing at each other, one of the old gentlemen said:

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Mayor has told us about your help to us, and we are very willing to go to Brazil to continue the research and experiment of machine tools, but I feel that my personal ability is not enough to be the leader of the laboratory.

Some of our best designers have been recruited by the United States and the Soviet Union, and those of us can only barely serve as auxiliary talents, and if you want to set up a laboratory, I have someone to recommend to you.

If you can convince this person to return to China with you, I think this machine tool lab will be able to achieve excellent results very quickly."

Fang Lang didn't expect that there would be such a good thing, didn't he take the initiative to send talents to himself?

"Oh! Please tell me where this man is, and I will go now and visit him personally."

Seeing Fang Lang's thirsty appearance, the two of them were also very pleased, and said with a smile:

"His name is Oqu Kent, he is a professor at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Aachen, and although he is not a member of the Machine Tool Research Laboratory, he has published many papers on machine tool research.

He has a high level of expertise in machine tool automation research, and many of our research has been guided by him."

As soon as he heard about the research on machine tool automation, Fang Lang's eyes had already begun to shine, this is the future!

But at the same time, I felt strange:

"Since he is so powerful, why wasn't he recruited by the United States and the Soviet Union?"

Hearing Fang Lang's question, the two of them were also a little confused, and one of them said:

"The United States and the Soviet Union did invite him, but I don't know why they all chose to give up later."

Now the waves below have become confused, and the United States and the Soviet Union can't be recruited under any circumstances? Could it be that this person is very demanding?

No matter what, since you know that such a person exists, you have to try everything.

"Then please tell me where this professor lives, and I'll visit you myself now."

"Actually, we didn't meet the professor in person, but we only read his research paper, and he was invited as a professor at the University of Aachen last year.

I know an approximate location of his residence, and I may need you to inquire around the area."

I don't know why, after hearing the words of a few people, Fang Lang always felt strange in his heart, and he couldn't say what was wrong.

Maybe you'll know what's going on when you meet me, right?

Fang Lang then sent another invitation to the two, both of whom expressed concern that they were not capable enough to be the head of the research laboratory, but also explicitly agreed to work in Brazil.

No matter what the professor's situation is, invite a few more excellent researchers first, and it is okay if you can't innovate, as long as you can restore the technical level of Germany before the war, Fang Lang will not be a loss.

He also expressed his gratitude to Mayor Jonas and asked a few people to introduce more excellent machine tool designers.

Several people also readily agreed.

Fang Lang, who left the city hall, went directly to the home of the professor, called Oqu Kent, because the professor's home was near the University of Aachen.

In order to save time, Fang Lang flew directly to Aachen.

The city of Aachen was a city close to the border between the Netherlands and Belgium, and Aachen was now under the rule of the British occupation forces.

The plane arrived in the city of Aachen in less than two hours, and the feeling of arriving in Aachen was noticeably better than the feeling of the first time in Stuttgart, probably because the British did not rule the occupied territories as strictly as the French.

Fang Lang left the airport without any hindrance, near the airport

After renting a few cars, I came to the location marked on the address.

After some inquiry, I finally found the professor's home.

The door was opened by a woman who looked to be in her fifties, with gray hair, high cheekbones on her face, and a somewhat cold expression on her face. When he heard that he had come to visit the professor in Kent, he immediately invited a few people into the house very warmly.

The speed of changing his face was so fast that it was time that caught Fang Lang off guard.

Fang Lang smiled and hurriedly handed over the gift of the visit, and after the lady opened it, she suddenly became more enthusiastic.

Because Fang Lang gave away a set of jewelry.

After entering the room, Fang Lang saw a handsome man in his fifties sitting on the sofa, and the bookish atmosphere on his body was very obvious.

However, after seeing a guest come in, the other party did not get up.

Fang Lang didn't mind, and took the initiative to step forward and stretch out his hand to greet:

"Hello, Professor Kent, my name is Fang Lang, and I am very honored to meet you."

The professor looked more reserved, and after seeing Fang Lang's appearance, he slowly got up, shook hands with Fang Lang lightly, and said:

"Hello, Mr. Fang, I'm glad to meet you too, I don't know how I can help you."

Feeling that the other party was just shaking hands gently, and there was no smile on his face, Fang Lang didn't feel very good.

But since I'm here to invite people out of the mountain, it's normal to stick a cold ass on my hot face!

Therefore, with a smile on his face, he pushed the gift box in his hand, which was a watch purchased in Stuttgart.

It's also a very expensive gift.

The professor took one look at it, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

This made Fang Lang feel very strange, generally literate intellectuals will seem a little high-minded, not to mention not loving money! It shouldn't be as obvious as it seems.

This is a little incompatible with the bookish spirit shown by the other party.

However, the other party quickly restrained his smile again, and changed back to the somewhat arrogant appearance he had just haught.

Fang Lang didn't want to beat around the bush, so he said directly:

"Professor, I heard that you have a high level of attainment in the field of automated machine tool research. I don't know if I can invite you to set up a machine tool laboratory in Brazil."

Before Fang Lang could finish speaking, the professor interrupted:

"Brazil? That Brazil in South America? Can you use such an advanced machine?"

Your mother! As soon as he said this, Fang Lang was a little unhappy, what do you mean? Look down on people.

Qi Qingshan and the others behind him also changed color in unison.

Probably realizing that he had lost his words, the professor added:

"I mean, the investment in machine tool research is very large, do you have the corresponding funds ready?"

Fang Lang changed his breath before he said slowly:

"Rest assured, we have sufficient funds in place to meet the research costs of the machine tool research laboratory."

"Oh! What is the monthly budget of the laboratory? Do I have absolute control over all these expenses?"

Hearing Fang Lang say that there were enough research funds, the professor's expression softened even more, and he put the book he had been holding in his hand on the table beside him.

Fang Lang's eyes inadvertently swept to the title of the book, which turned out to be an English version of "Du Li's New Book", and when he saw this title, Fang Lang's whole person was not good.

Is it appropriate for you to look at the books of deception left by my ancestors in front of me?

This "New Book of Deception", also known as "The Book of Deception", is a book dedicated to introducing various deception techniques during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, of course, it does not tell you how to deceive, but tells you how to avoid deception.

However, there are also a lot of scammers who look for inspiration from it.

As a crew member, slowly traveling to the sea, Fang Lang happened to read this book when he was bored.

At this moment, Fang Lang felt that his whole person was not good, this professor in front of him should not be a liar! How could a liar become a college professor?

However, I heard the other party close

Note the control of the research funds and funds in the laboratory, and then look at the books on the table, Fang Lang has a sentence in his heart that his mother wants to blurt out.

After a long time, Fang Lang still comforted himself and said, "Cultural people! It's normal to be well-read! I think I'm thinking too much."

Or tentatively asked:

"I wonder how much money you think you need to invest in building a machine tool research laboratory?"

After listening to Fang Lang's question, the professor's eyes flashed and he asked:

"Your lab hasn't started construction yet, has it? If you want to meet my experimental requirements, this lab will need to invest at least $1 million, and it is expected that the R&D budget will definitely exceed $10,000 per month, do you have the strength to do that?"

Of course, this fund is trivial to Fang Lang, but Fang Lang has begun to doubt this professor in his heart now. So he tentatively said:

"If you invest so much, I don't know how long it will take to pay off. Mr. Professor, could you please tell me about your main research direction?"

The professor looked at Fang Lang strangely and said:

"Didn't you look for my paper? My research direction must be the automation direction of machine tools! As for how long it will take to produce results!

The direction I am working on is about to break through, and it should be a breakthrough within two months. If you can fully support my research, you will definitely gain a lot."

Fang Lang didn't expect that the other party would directly promise to produce results within two months, if it was a liar, he should say that the research could not give an accurate time!

Or is the professor going to run away with the money in two months?

For a while, Fang Lang also hesitated a little.

Just as Fang Lang was thinking about how to answer the professor's question, he suddenly heard an imperceptible sound of metal dragging across the ground. The professor and his wife, both in the living room.

It means that there must be other people in the house, but this voice is not from upstairs, but from underground.

Fang Lang said in his heart:

"That's great, I'm relieved to have your words.

It's almost dinner time, and I wonder if I've had the honor of inviting you and your family to dinner at a restaurant in the city to celebrate the birth of our shared lab."

After the professor and his wife looked at each other, their faces were full of joy, and finally the professor smiled happily:

"Of course, no problem. It's really something to celebrate."

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to go to the restaurant in the city to book a place now, I don't know if Mr. Professor's family is not there, how many places we need to book."

Fang Lang also said with a smile on his face.

When the professor's wife heard the number of family members, she took the initiative to answer:

"My husband and I are the only two people in our family, and our children have gone to the United States, so we don't have any family around. So, all we need is the two of us."

Hearing the words of the professor's wife, Fang Lang turned his head to the professor's wife, his eyes swept over the house, and he didn't find anything abnormal.

However, there are some speculations in my heart.

"Then I'll arrange the dining room now, and I'll arrange for a chauffeur to pick up the professor and his wife for the banquet later." I'll quit first."

After speaking, Fang Lang took the initiative to get up and said goodbye like two masters.

The professor and his wife were also very enthusiastic to send Fang Lang to the gate. As he walked out of the room, Fang Lang heard a slight sound of metal rubbing against the ground from the ground again.
