Lawrence Bell, who was moved, didn't need Fang Lang to continue to speak, and had already taken the initiative to say to John F. Kennedy:

"John, you're a Democrat, right? Do you have a plan for your political career? ”

After John F. Kennedy heard Lawrence Bell's words, his eyes swept back and forth between Lawrence and Fang Lang, and only after a while did he say with a ghostly expression:

"I myself plan to run for the Senate next year, but I've never mentioned the idea to anyone.

Fang, I don't know if you really predicted my future through your Eastern Witchcraft, or where did you get the rumors, I have to say, you are very powerful. ”

Hearing this, Fang Lang didn't explain, and looked at the other party with a smile and said:

"You also said that you didn't mention to anyone that you were running for the Senate, did you?

Believe it or not, my pledge will always be valid, and my global group will support you in next year's senatorial election. ”

Lawrence Bell said with his eyes shining and a firm tone:

"John, I believe in you! I will convince the consortium to fully support your candidacy for the Senate next year.

If there is an opportunity in the future, we will also fully support you in your candidacy for the presidency of the United States. ”

John F. Kennedy also did not expect that the first support he received would come from Fang Lang, a Brazilian general.

According to U.S. policy, foreign funds cannot be accepted for election, but the other side's global trade is U.S. capital and is powerful.

If the other party can really fully support him, and with the support of the Boston consortium, he may not have the opportunity to challenge for the presidency of the United States.

Moreover, as far as he knows, the relationship between the Universal Group and the Morgan Consortium is close, and with the control of the Morgan Consortium over the Democratic Party, if he can gain the support of the Morgan Consortium through the Global Group, then there will be basically no problems in his election campaign.

I have to say that John F. Kennedy was still a little politically immature at this time, how could the Morgan consortium support him who clearly represents the interests of the Boston consortium because of the relationship between the Universal Group!

In fact, the reason why John F. Kennedy was able to ascend to the presidency was not because he had the support of the Morgan consortium, on the contrary, his ascension to the throne was entirely due to the exchange of interests between the Boston consortium and the Rockefeller consortium.

His assassination was rumored to be because he handed over all the arms orders to the arms company under the Boston Consortium, which annoyed the Morgan consortium and led to his tragedy.

Of course, Fang Lang didn't know about these circumstances, and he didn't care when a warmonger would be assassinated, and he never thought of alerting the other party to the idea that he might be assassinated.

"Alright! Fang, you're right, I have to do this business.

Now that you've expressed your support for my candidacy, I don't think there's a way for me to refuse your request for a joint school. ”

After speaking, he turned his head in the direction of Lawrence Bell and shrugged his shoulders, indicating that the other party had been convinced.

Seeing this, Lawrence Bell reacted that he and John F. Kennedy had reached a deal with each other unconsciously, and it was not easy for him to veto the other party's proposal regarding the joint school.

looked at Fang Lang with a wry smile on his face and said:

"Fang, now can you tell us how you want to jointly run a school?"

Seeing the expressions of Lawrence Bell and John F. Kennedy, Fang Lang knew that as long as his request was not too excessive, the other party should not embarrass him.

"Actually, I have built several schools in Brazil, but the school is not going well because of the teachers, so I came here mainly to ask for help.

First of all, I hope that I can use the curriculum and textbooks of Harvard University so that I can run a school in Brazil smoothly.

Secondly, in terms of the school's collection of books and scientific research equipment, it is also hoped to be on par with Harvard.

Thirdly, in terms of faculty, I also hope to be able to get the support of Harvard University, and if some experimental projects of Harvard professors cannot be met here, I can also provide all-round support in terms of funds and equipment.

The results of research achieved by professors from Harvard University in our university can be shared by the two universities.

Finally, if I could, I would like to bring in Harvard administrators and manage my university the same way it is Harvard. ”

Hearing this, Lawrence Bell and John F. Kennedy looked at each other and made eye contact, and finally Lawrence Bell took the initiative to speak:

"I see what you mean? You're trying to copy everything from Harvard in Brazil, right? ”

Fang Lang shrugged his shoulders and said calmly:

"So to speak."

When John F. Kennedy heard this, he asked with some confusion:

"I feel like what you're saying can be achieved without us looking for you, so why are you going to talk about it through us?

First of all, the textbooks and courses are public stuff, and I think you can grasp them by just going to the school and doing some research.

Of course, the faculty may be a real difficulty, but since you can provide sufficient scientific research funds and complete scientific research equipment, I don't think this is an insurmountable difficulty.

As for administrators, it's even simpler, you can even just spend money to hire on campus to solve this problem.

This confuses me a bit. ”

Lawrence Bell on the side also looked at Fang Lang with a puzzled expression.

Fang Lang smiled and said sincerely:

"You're right, it's very easy to do. But this is plagiarism, and I can't make such a bad head.

This will have a very bad impact on the academic atmosphere of the school in the future.

What I'm doing to talk to you is to get the official authorization from your school, and I can tell all the students who come to the school that everything we do is officially authorized by Harvard.

I am not only a soldier, but also a businessman, and I understand the importance of patents and knowledge, and the current academic atmosphere at Harvard University and these intangible assets are all intellectual property belonging to Harvard, and I cannot infringe on them.

It was only with the official authorization of Harvard University that I could tell everyone at the university that everything in our school was founded with the help of Harvard University.

And not what we copied from Harvard. These are two completely different concepts. ”

Although Fang Lang said it righteously, Lawrence Bell and John F. Kennedy were both smart people, and they didn't understand Fang Lang's true thoughts, Lawrence Bell smiled slightly:

"So, you want Harvard University to come forward and endorse your school, right?"

Fang Lang, who was exposed, didn't feel embarrassed at all, but smiled slightly:

"You're not wrong that way."

Lawrence Bell and John F. Kennedy looked at each other and burst out laughing.

Finally, Lawrence Bell smiled and said:

"As long as you don't plagiarize the name of Harvard University, I have no problem."

John F. Kennedy also picked up the teacup and touched Fang Lang lightly and said:

"I'm okay with that."

Fang Lang was overjoyed when he heard this, and drained the tea in the cup in one gulp:

"Haha...... You can rest assured, my school is called São Paulo Polytechnic University, and it will never copy the name of Harvard University. But I'm going to advertise that we're a consortium of Harvard University, and that the establishment of the school was very helpful to Harvard.

That should be fine! ”

The two of them thought that Fang Lang just wanted to use this name to recruit students in the local area and recruit teachers from the Dao School, but they didn't understand what special meaning Fang Lang had to say about the alliance school.

After all, the so-called Ivy League had not yet been established during this period, and it was not until 1954, when his own school was the first to be labeled as an alliance school of Harvard University, that there would be much less resistance to recruiting professors and scholars in the United States.

It is even possible to set up a dedicated headhunting department and start digging into other prestigious universities in the United States to find more professors.

For example, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which is also part of the Boston consortium, is a very good target for poaching.

Lawrence Bell didn't have any opinion on Fang Lang's idea of rubbing the heat, and waved his hand indifferently:

"No problem, I'll notify the Harvard Board of Trustees and have the university sign a formal licensing agreement with you."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Fang Lang got up with a smile on his face, stretched out his right hand to Lawrence Bell and said:

"Thank you so much for your help, Mr. Bell.

If I can officially authorize it, I hope that Harvard University can help me recommend a few great people to put the school on the shelf. ”

When Lawrence Bell heard this, he did not refuse, but nodded without hesitation:

"No problem!"

Seeing this situation, Fang Lang's mind completely calmed down, and he turned to John F. Kennedy and said:

"Thank you, Mr. Senator, for your help!"

John F. Kennedy laughed when he heard this:

"I'm not a senator yet, but with your help, I think I'll be able to deserve it next year.

You don't have to thank me, we help each other! ”

Fang Lang didn't say much, and directly stretched out his hand to shake the other party and said:

"Haha..... You're right, we're just helping each other, there's still a long way to go, and I think we'll be firm allies. ”

Everyone laughed contentedly.

Fang Lang saw that the matter had been negotiated, so he couldn't wait to say:

"Mr. Bell, now that the matter has been negotiated, I wonder if it is convenient for you to take me to see the helicopter products produced by your company?"

】

Lawrence Bell didn't expect Fang Lang to be so eager, which made him very happy, because it meant that the other party really wanted to purchase helicopter products from his company.

It's not to get your own support for the other party's school, so you deliberately curry favor with yourself.

In fact, what Lawrence Bell and John F. Kennedy didn't know was that Fang Lang's initial idea was not as simple as he said, but he was really ready to come up with funds to promote the joint school.

But in this way, Fang Lang not only has to pay a lot of money, but also may have to sign a series of agreements with Harvard University, and it is not clear that the school's annual income and tuition fees will be handed over to Harvard University.

From Lawrence Bell's words, Fang Lang could hear that the other party did not want Harvard University to have any branch campuses, which showed that if it was really a joint school, it could be very big.

But now, with the authorization of Harvard University and the consent of the representatives of the Boston consortium, he can copy the template of Harvard University and copy the work of Harvard University.

He even poached the professors he needed directly from Harvard and famous American universities.

The school shelf, built by Harvard administrators, is, in fact, not much different from Harvard. In this way, both in terms of their own investment and the price they need to pay.

The benefits of this situation now far outweigh the joint school plan that I had prepared.

And all this is because the two representatives of the Boston consortium happen to have their own places to handle, and they can also get what they want from the two of them.

It's a perfect win-win.
