On the night of the successful development of the starting motor, Rutherford paid out of his own pocket to invite a few of the boys from the group to the Eagle Bar for a drink.

After three rounds of drinking, his drunken eyes were hazy, and in a trance, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Dr. Chen, a Chinese student, was more pleasing to the eye.

Chen Muwu has been coming to Cambridge University for more than three years, and the various achievements he has achieved cannot be counted on two hands combined.

During this time, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics once.

Although behind the award, most of them are Chen Muwu's own talent and efforts.

But doesn't he, as a teacher, have no credit?

If it weren't for his help in academic circles across Europe and the Americas, and asking friends, colleagues and students to nominate together, would Chen Muwu still be able to win this Nobel Prize?

Estimating, uh, if nothing else, of course it can, after all, he has achieved so much.

But no matter what you say, on the bright side, Chen Muwu was cultivated by him.

Old Prague in London raised his son Prague Jr. to be the youngest Nobel Prize winner at that time, which was a deep love for calves and a certain amount of selfishness in it.

can cultivate Chen Muwu by himself, it is not self-interested, it is dedicated to benefiting others, except for the master-apprentice relationship, there is no relationship between the two people.

Chen Muwu's ability to break the record of the youngest Nobel laureate in Little Prague is, to a certain extent, a sign that his education level is very high.

According to a proverb from Dr. Chen's hometown, this is the world's own peaches and plums.

Dr. Chen is also a grateful person, and he has relied on his own efforts to bring a lot of financial sponsorship to the Cavendish Laboratory.

It can be said that in recent years, the laboratory has developed rapidly, and a lot of expensive experimental instruments and equipment have been purchased, and Chen Mu's martial arts are indispensable.

If a young man with such an excellent level and character can't get a professorship at Cambridge University, it is not a loss for Chen Muwu, it can only be said to be a loss for Cambridge University.

Thinking about it, Rutherford's interest in his heart also got better and better.

He hadn't had a few beers or smoked a few pipes that night, but when he came out of the Eagle Bar, he always felt a little dizzy.

Turning down the kindness of Chen Muwu, a good student who had never touched a drop of wine, to send him home, Rutherford followed his memory, and with the help of the light from the gas street lamp, he wandered through the streets and alleys of Cambridgeshire, and finally came to the door of his teacher, Tom Sun.

Tomson Jr.'s son, Tomson Jr., because he had no qualifications, could not mix well in a good position at Cambridge University, and shortly before Chen Muwu arrived in the UK, he went north to Scotland, and relied on his father's relationship to find a professorship at the University of Aberdeen.

Rutherford's home in Cambridgeshire could live with his daughter Mary and son-in-law Fowler, but he was the only one left in Old Tomson's home.

When there was a knock on the door downstairs, Old Tomson had just prepared the proposal to be submitted to the school review committee in a few days, and was already lying in bed, ready to rest.

He turned over and sat up, went downstairs and opened the door, only to see that it was his student, Rutherford with the smell of alcohol and tobacco.

On weekdays, there are two masters and apprentices, one is in charge of the affairs of Trinity College and the other is in charge of the Cavendish Laboratory, and neither of them is idle in their work, so the opportunities to meet are limited.

If there was something to discuss in person, either Rutherford would report to the teacher in the Trinity College office, or the old Tomson would go to the Cavendish lab to find his students, tinker with the experimental equipment on a whim, and talk to Aston about some new ideas that he had recently come up with.

On the contrary, there are very few opportunities to meet at home, unless someone invites them to a dinner party, but that is also by appointment in advance.

An uninvited and drunken man like Rutherford is a relatively rude behavior for the old English gentleman Old Tomson.

But just like what Rutherford thinks of Chen Muwu, in the eyes of old Tomson, Rutherford is also his favorite student.

Otherwise, he would not have recommended Rutherford, who was still young at the time, to McGill University in Canada to be the head of the physics department, and he would not have thought of this student first in the selection of a successor after he decided to leave the Cavendish laboratory.

Tonight he suddenly came to the door, and although old Tomson was a little unhappy in his heart, he still invited him into his house.

After listening to Rutherford's account of the cause and effect of the incident, old Tomson realized why he was drinking today, and why he came to the door late at night with a smell of alcohol.

He was also a witness to Chen Muwu's manufacture of electric motors, and also helped the latter apply for a grant from the Lord Kelvin Foundation at the Royal Society, which not only helped Chen Muwu, but also expressed his remembrance of Lord Kelvin for his grace - by spending other people's inheritance.

Listening to Rutherford, Chen Muwu's starting motor has been built, and Old Tomson is also very happy.

Hearing him say that he hoped to apply for a professorship for this great hero of Cavendish Laboratory, Old Tomson simply went straight to his desk and took the proposal he had just completed, and asked Rutherford to sign his name on it.

He felt that the proposal to help Chen Muwu apply for a professorship this time should be foolproof.

A Nobel laureate in physics, the dean of Trinity College, and a Nobel laureate in chemistry, director of the Cavendish laboratory, helped another Nobel laureate in physics to achieve countless research results, helping Cambridge to apply for a professorship again.

The gold content of this proposal should be enough even in the best school in the world, Cambridge University.

This still can't take you?

A few days later, the Senate of Cambridge University gave Old Tomson this very realistic fantasy and gave it a slap in the face.

This sudden blow was not because his proposal was voted down by the members of the jury.

But before he could put forward his own proposal, the school's superintendent Belfort first put forward a more important special proposal.

They want to punish students who promote and support the strike during the strike and undermine the peace and stability in Britain.

The first place in the list submitted by Balfour to the Senate was Chen Muwu, who wanted to apply for a professorship for Tomson Sr.

It made him hang his heart in his throat.

Although the elder Tomson himself is not very supportive of the more violent protest method of the strike, if this proposal is passed, then Chen Muwu will definitely be doomed.

Although he didn't know what the school wanted to do with them, he felt that the proposal in his hand was about to be rejected again, and there was no doubt about it.

Wherever there is a crowd, there is a left, a center and a right.

Although Rutherford hated things that had nothing to do with academics, and hated that people were discussing politics in the Cavendish laboratory, that didn't mean that all the professors and teachers at Cambridge University were like that.

Some people oppose it, some people support it, and Russell, who is also a member of the judging committee, has a good impression of Red Sulian.

When he was lecturing in China, he said more than once that at the beginning of the 20th century, there were two greatest people in the world, one was called Albert Einstein and the other was called Lie.

In addition, in Balfour's list, the first target is Chen Muwu, who has a good relationship with him.

And in support of the strike, in addition to Chen Muwu, many members of the Apostolic Society also participated.

Russell was the first to stand up and say he was against the proposal.

In addition to Russell, there are many other professors who adhere to Fabianism and are also on Russell's side.

There is still some considerable difference between Fabianism and the beliefs that Su Lian adheres to.

They were not much in favor of the use of violence like the Paris Commune, but hoped that they would be able to save the country and adopt a more moderate way of fighting.

But at this moment, everyone is seeking common ground while reserving differences, and they are all on the side of supporting students.

Old Tomson saw that there were so many people who stood up for Chen Muwu, and he himself also expressed his opposition to the proposal and Russell's approval.

On the first day of the council, there was a stalemate over the first proposal, and the two sides discussed it for a whole day, but neither side could convince the other side.

Balfour didn't expect that a selfish proposal would cause such a big wave.

He was afraid that if things continued to develop, the contradictions might intensify, so he temporarily announced the adjournment of the meeting and waited for tomorrow to continue the discussion.

After the end of the first day of the council, the members were busier than they had been at the beginning of the meeting.

In particular, the group that opposed the Balfour proposal found students who appeared on the list and had a good relationship with them, and told them to be careful and not to tell the truth in the recent period.

When Old Tomson arrived at Cavendish Laboratory, his disciples were not surprised by the arrival of the old director, who had come every once in a while to inspect the work.

To their surprise, Professor Russell came to the Cavendish laboratory again to find Chen Muwu.

This is the second time that the great philosopher has visited the door in recent times, and he is still looking for the same person.

What's more, they have already begun to speculate that Russell came for the first time some time ago, and soon after Dr. Chen published a paper that shook the foundation of mathematics.

So will this time be the same as last time, Dr. Chan and Professor Russell teamed up to make a big news in the mathematical world or something?

Old Tom Sun walked into Chen Muwu's office and found that Russell was also here, with a very serious expression on his face.

There is no doubt that what he wants to say and what he wants to say should be the same thing.

But Chen Muwu, the client, didn't care about this matter as if he was out of the way.

He had just finished interviewing and writing a patent for Qiji, and was waiting for Zhao Zhongyao and Cockcroft to hand in the relevant papers for him to review.

In addition to his work on electrical engineering, Dirac and von Neumann had a lecture on quantum mechanics waiting for him, along with a mathematical paper on Chen and the decisive.

Rutherford, who was eager to do experiments, urged the proton source very tightly.

Although there are people to help him with everything, everything is inseparable from him.

Chen Muwu now truly understands what it means to be a doppelganger, and he wants to invite Blackett over to help him, how can he have time to pay attention to this?

The worst outcome is to leave Cambridge University.

Balfour's rights are limited to this, he can't shoot him just because he doesn't like him, right?

He maintained such an attitude that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and Russell and Old Tomson, who came to persuade him, expressed his above thoughts.

Regarding Chen Muwu's statement that he was leaving Cambridge, Russell and Old Tomson made completely different expressions about this.

Russell said that if Dr. Chan had decided to go, he could help contact universities in London, whether it was University College or Imperial College.

But old Thomson was in a hurry.

Cambridge University is dead, Chen Muwu is alive.

His ideas are all packed in a smart head, and they can be plug-and-play wherever he goes, such as the University of London as Russell said, Germany, or the United States.

But after Cambridge left him, not to mention the question of whether the level of academic research and experimentation in physics would decline, it would be a major blow to Cambridge physics if the Duke of York's £10,000 a year grant to the Cavendish Laboratory was to cease.

What's more, Chen Muwu is not an academic mascot, but an academic leader in the new generation of physics at Cambridge University.

How can such a person be let go?

Although he is in a hurry, Chen Muwu is not to blame for this matter, his own attitude has been clearly explained, that is, it doesn't matter whether he stays or leaves.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the school supervisor Balfour who doesn't know four or six, after retiring from politics, wouldn't it be good to retire with peace of mind, you have to think about what to do if you can't find something!

After saying everything that should be said and what should not be said, the anxious old Tom Sun left Chen Muwu's office with the guest Russell.

He turned around and went to his student Rutherford, anxious to discuss with him what to do about it.

He didn't notice at all that a young man with a bright eye passed by him and walked towards Chen Muwu's office.

Hearing that Russell was coming today, von Neumann was eager to meet the Cambridge mathematician in person.

When he heard that Russell was here to find Chen Muwu, he was even more curious, what did the two of them say, was it related to mathematics, as everyone in the laboratory said?

Von Neumann hurried to catch up, but was still a step too late to meet Russell.

But he had to stay at Cambridge University for several months, sometimes to visit him.

So after entering the office, he asked straight to the point, whether he wanted to do something in mathematics again, and whether he needed help from someone who was not bad at mathematics.

As a result, Chen Muwu told him that things were not as he thought, so and so and so

Von Neumann, who came from a banking family, was not very interested in the strike.

He only grasped one key point from Chen Muwu's answer, and that was "leaving Cambridge".

Although he was already co-writing the decisive paper with Chen Muwu, which was another blow to Hilbert after the incompleteness theorem, von Neumann still did not forget the advice of his mentor before leaving.

"Dr. Chen, if you really plan to leave Cambridge this time, have you decided where you want to go? In fact, I came to the UK for another purpose besides meeting you. My teacher, Professor Hilbert, asked me to ask on my behalf, "Do you want to go to Germany to do scientific research?" He would love to be able to work with you. ”
