129. Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders
"Sir Doyle, how much do you say? A thousand pounds for a lecture? ”
Chen Muwu, who was shocked by this number, began to doubt his ears with some unconfidence.
In order to prevent unnecessary misunderstanding due to his mishearing, he simply repeated the number again.
Doyle smiled and nodded, "That's right, a thousand pounds, Dr. Chen, the pay I proposed is not bad, right?" ”
The old aristocrats and the new aristocrats in Britain are really rich in their grandmothers.
Chen Muwu has always felt that he has now established a firm foothold in Europe, both in his studies and in life, and he only needs to exert a little effort in the future, relying on various invention patents that have not yet appeared, he should also be able to make a lot of money.
But there is such an opportunity in front of me, all you need to do is go to London to give a lecture, move your mouth, and work for two hours, and the reward is 1,000 pounds.
What kind of research is there to do and what kind of Nobel Prize is you working so hard for?
As long as you give seven lectures a year, you can earn as much money as a Nobel Prize.
No wonder those scammers will rush to the UK to cheat money, it is really too easy for these people to cheat money.
Until a hundred years later, Master Ma of Hun Yuan Xingyi Taijiquan can still deceive in London.
For a moment, Chen Muwu even wanted to bring qigong to the UK.
When the time comes, thousands of people will gather in Trafalgar Square, each with an aluminum "information pot" on their heads, to receive the magnetic field from the cosmic atmosphere, and the scene will be spectacular.
It's just that what Chen Muwu doesn't know is that Doyle, as a supporter of spiritism, is also the author of the world-renowned Sherlock Holmes series.
He went to the United States to give lectures and give a platform for spiritism, and the appearance fee each time was no less than what Chen Muwu could get this time.
"Dr. Chen?"
Seeing that Chen Muwu suddenly fell into a state of contemplation, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth inexplicably.
didn't give himself a response for a long time, and he couldn't help but whisper to Chen Muwu.
"Ah, ah, sir, where am I? When will this lecture be held? ”
In just a few minutes, Chen Muwu personally demonstrated what it means to slap his face at the speed of light.
He was still doing psychological construction in his heart just now, saying that he must not have anything to do with gods and ghosts.
But in the blink of an eye, he rebelled, and this time it was his predecessor Newton who brought him psychological comfort.
Even the greatest physicist in the history of mankind has gone to study theology, so it is understandable that I am not exempt from vulgarity in the end, right?
The two skins of the human mouth, anyway, are reasonable, touching Newton to cross the river, it is not wrong!
"Dr. Chen, did you agree? Anytime, just tell me a few days in advance and I'll be able to gather the members for an impromptu meeting. However, it's better to have a Saturday, when there should be more people. ”
"No problem! Sir Doyle, in a few days' time I'll be going to London too, and I'll get back to you when that time comes. ”
"That couldn't be better," Doyle said, figuring a little out of his inner pocket of his suit, "here's my business card with my address and phone number in London." And the fifty pounds will be used as a fare for your journey from Cambridge to London. ”
The owner is atmospheric.
The train journey from Cambridgeshire's railway station to London's King's Cross station is only 60 miles, and even the most expensive express first class carriage will cost less than a pound.
The carriage and horse fare that Doyle gave Chen Muwu was enough for him to go back and forth between the two cities twenty or thirty times.
"Okay, Sir, I'll get in touch with you as soon as I can!"
Seeing off Doyle, Chen Muwu did not return to the dinner scene at Trinity College for fear that he would continue to be pestered by Einstein, but went to Mrs. Brown's house for a long time.
Since Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei came to Cambridge from China, Chen Muwu basically hasn't had much time to communicate with them.
Especially during the months when the Nordic countries were at odds, they only met briefly in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden.
When he arrived, he didn't expect to see Oppenheimer in the house.
He is the youngest of the three, but he is very conscious of the consciousness of a senior brother.
Chen Muwu had asked Oppenheimerdo to help two people from China to tutor more of the latest physics knowledge and help practice English by the way, but he didn't expect that he still insisted on this matter.
In fact, Oppenheimer completely regarded every meeting as a foreign language corner, he helped Zhao and Shi tutor in English, and also learned and connected with them in Chinese listening, speaking, reading and writing by the way.
He felt that although he was in the UK, all four people in Mr. Chen and his student circle were native Chinese speakers, and in order to take care of him as an American, they had always used English to communicate.
Oppenheimer felt like a burden, so he always wanted to learn Chinese.
Compared with his two compatriots, Chen Muwu took Oppenheimer on a complete trip to Northern Europe.
However, in the short month after returning to Cambridge, he had to deal with the accumulated things, and the eldest brother who had to accompany him through a lot of hardships and hardships to come to England, and his eldest disciple were also a little less together and more separated.
Because he was not a member of the Royal Society, Oppenheimer did not go to London with Chen Muwu to attend a conference a few days ago, and could only read the controversial theories put forward by his teacher in the newspaper.
Today, a few people finally met, and the topic was naturally inseparable from the unlucky cat and the universe that had been incredibly divided.
In the past few days, as long as Chen Muwu meets with others, the topics of conversation will always be these.
Eddington, who was the first to speak to reporters after the Royal Society's award ceremony, has always been a supporter of Chen Muwu's new theory.
Now, he has one more Oppenheimer to his staunch supporter.
Although no matter what kind of quantum mechanical interpretation is still in the stage of utopia, let alone experimental verification, it is still very difficult to even design experiments that can be verified, but Oppenheimer has an intuition in his heart, that is, what Chen Muwu said is right, and he will never lie to himself.
After a few idle words, Chen Muwu and the three of them made their purpose of the trip clear: "I will go to London again in a few days, and I may have to do research in the laboratory of the Royal Academy for a while. ”
"Is it because of that superconductivity thing?"
When Oppenheimer was in Denmark, he knew that Chen Muwu had been fooling, and it could not be said that he was fooling, and he should have "persuaded" the person from the Institute of Theoretical Physics to study superconductivity.
On the way back from receiving the Nobel Prize, he followed Chen Muwu to the Netherlands, so Oppenheimer knew that when Professor Chen was in Leiden, he had been negotiating about the purchase of low-temperature physics experimental equipment.
As a result, when I returned to Cambridge, it was as if everything about low-temperature physics had suddenly disappeared.
Oppenheimer only realized after asking around that it was Rutherford who was reluctant to spend money and introduced Mr. Chen to Old Prague in London.
Oppenheimer, who came to Cambridge from Harvard University, did not get into the Cavendish Laboratory in the first place because Rutherford was in the way.
Now Rutherford is stuck in Chen Muwu's research again, which makes him even more unhappy.
His teacher relied on the money he earned for the laboratory in the Olympic Games, but in the end, he couldn't spend a penny, and all of it was devoted to the research on the atomic nucleus that had no hope at all.
Oppenheimer felt that Rutherford might be older than Tomson who was older than him, as long as Chen Muwu could be filmed well, then wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to get more research results?
I went on a business trip to Northern Europe with my teacher for a few months, and during this time, I left Chen Muwu's Cavendish laboratory, what achievements did I make?
In the main research direction, the atomic nucleus, there are almost no achievements, and what is the only achievement? It was in high-altitude physics that the ionosphere in the atmosphere was discovered!
Oppenheimer thought to himself that the Cavendish laboratory could even dismiss the other professors and staff, leaving only Chen Muwu alone, plus himself and his two juniors to help the teacher, and constantly produce various research results every year.
"That's right, I'd like to do some research in low-temperature physics, and which of you would like to go to London with me?"
Chen Muwu has always said that he will do low-temperature experiments, but he has never thought about what he wants to do.
However, he made it clear that when he arrived in London, he would definitely not study the critical temperature at which elemental elements become superconductors, especially thallium 81.
Now there are two options in front of Chen Muwu, one is to obtain liquid deuterium from liquid hydrogen through shunt under low temperature conditions, so as to find the first isotope of hydrogen.
The second is to continue to study superconductivity, so as to discover the Meissner effect of superconductors, which confirms that the magnetic induction intensity inside the superconductor is zero, that is, the superconductor repels the magnetic field in the body.
The first research will undoubtedly win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
In the original time and space, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1934 was given to Harold Yuri, who discovered deuterium.
For the second study, Chen Muwu thinks it should also win the physics prize.
It was only because in the original time and space, Meissner, the discoverer of the Meissner effect, was German, and Germany lost World War II again like World War I, so he unfortunately failed to win the Nobel Prize because of his nationality.
Chen Muwu had already eaten alone once last winter, and his interest in the Nobel Prize is not as strong as it used to be.
And he pondered that the judges of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences should not be willing to award the Nobel Prize to the same person again and again, Einstein is a good example.
So Chen Muwu thought about whether he could help these people around him to get a few Nobel Prizes, after all, the fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders!
Today, he and his three students proposed to go to London to do a low-temperature experiment, which is to try this idea of his own.
It's just that he can't determine who will eventually do the experiment with him, so he is not sure what the experiment will be done in the end.
In Chen's plan, he wants to leave the physics prize to his two compatriots.
If one of Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei is willing to go with him, then after arriving in London, he will do the experiment on the magnetic effect of superconductors.
And if Oppenheimer wants to go with him, for the sake of his faithful companionship all along, then give him a chemistry prize.
His teacher Rutherford didn't look down on the chemistry prize, so in the heart of Chen Muwu, a good student, there was also some pride in being a physicist.
Speaking of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Chen Muwu remembered another interesting thing.
The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to the Swedish engineer Nils Gustav Darren in 1912 for his invention of an automatic gas regulator that ignites buoy lights and buoy lights.
There is a saying in wild history that Darren was able to win the prize that year because the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences originally wanted to award the physics prize that year to Edison and Tesla at the same time.
As a result, neither of these two rivals was willing to accept the award at the same time as the other, so they both refused.
The Swedish side had no choice but to pull out this engineer from its own country to save the scene temporarily.
But if you want to talk about the most watery chemistry award, it should undoubtedly be the one in 1945 in the original space.
In the same year, the Physics Prize was awarded to Pauli, who discovered the principle of incompatibility.
Prizes in physiology or medicine were awarded to Alexander Fleming and others who discovered penicillin.
The former contributed to the development of physics, especially quantum, while the latter saved countless lives.
In the same year, the Chemistry Prize was awarded for how to store feed.
This invention allowed Europeans to have an abundant supply of milk even in winter, and it was indeed a great invention when taken out alone.
It's just a horizontal comparison, and its gold content is not so sufficient.
This award is so watery that Chen Muwu doesn't have the desire to take it for himself.
However, this made him wander again, and thought of something interesting, which made the corners of his mouth smile.
This made Oppenheimer mistakenly believe that the experiment proposed by his teacher should make another major discovery.
He was the first to raise his hand: "Teacher, I want to go with you!" ”
"Are you sure?" Chen Muwu's first reaction was not to agree, but to question, "Let me warn you first, this experiment will be very boring." ”
He didn't say this to reject Oppenheimer, but it was what it was.
The boiling point of liquid deuterium is 23.5K, whereas the boiling point of liquid hydrogen is 20.38K.
Taking advantage of the temperature difference between the three Kelvins, it is completely possible to fractionate deuterium gas from liquid hydrogen.
It's just that the yield of this method is miserable, and only 1 milliliter of deuterium can be produced by distilling 5 liters of liquid hydrogen to the end.
Chen felt that Oppenheimer's patience was not enough to support him to complete this boring experiment that required many repetitions.
Thinking of this, he had already chosen the person to do the experiment with him.
"Brother Shunruo, why don't you go to London with me?"
Oppenheimer felt more and more that learning Chinese was too important.
He didn't even know who Teacher Chen had chosen, only that it wasn't him anyway.
