101 Eight thousand pounds of bets

In this anime, there is often an image of a tsundere lady.

She regards herself as high and arrogant, and at first she always looked down on the male protagonist who she thought was a stupid idiot, and often ridiculed the other party.

But after an in-depth understanding, Miss Tsundere was basically impressed by the sparkle shown by the actor, and began to secretly examine in her heart whether she shouldn't have behaved so contemptuously to this person in the first place.

She tried to show her good impression of the male protagonist, but because of her face and the personality she had cultivated over the years, she couldn't change for a while, and basically became a somewhat contradictory state of "disgusted in her mouth, but her body is very upright".

Pauli is now in the same state as this tsundere lady, but it's a pity that he's a man.

Of course, he is happy to see that Chen Muwu, his sworn enemy for so many years, took the initiative to show favor to him.

But after the other party reacted, Pauli felt a little nervous, he was in a hurry, and he was at a loss.

He was stunned for a few seconds before he stammered and said, "Thank you, thank you, Dr. Chen." Thank you for your kindness. ”

On one side is his own compatriot, and Pauli, the senior brother who studied together under Sommerfeld and Bohr.

On the other side is Chen Muwu, a colleague he admires and admires the most among the younger generation of physicists.

Every time the two of them met with incompatible rivals, Heisenberg, who was sandwiched in the middle, always felt that he was a little different from the inside and out, and it was difficult to achieve a bowl of water.

Whichever side he shows in his favor is likely to provoke the disgust of the other.

He was more willing than anyone else to see Chen Muwu and Pauli put aside the grievances they had formed before, shake hands and reconcile.

Seeing that Chen Muwu took the initiative to give in, and Pauli did not know how to lift up, and accepted Dr. Chen's kindness, Heisenberg was very happy.

However, he rejoiced too soon.

Because although Pauli has gradually recognized Chen Muwu opposite him in terms of knowledge of physics and other talents that are higher than his own, his mouth has not yet been able to change.

According to the inertia of the past, he always wanted to have the upper hand in words, and he was willing to give up only when he was quick to speak.

This time Pauli was no exception, and after thanking Chen Muwu for his generosity, he added a few words after a few seconds.

"Dr. Chen, although you gave me a signed photo of Mr. Chaplin, our previous bet is still valid.

"Let me remind you that we made that bet in Copenhagen in 1924, that from that point on, if physicists couldn't find that hilarious 'anti-electron' in ten years, you would lose me ten pounds of Sovereign. Otherwise, I'll lose you ten Sovereigns.

"It's been three years now, but your colleagues in physics labs around the world clearly don't have a clue about this counterintuitive 'anti-electron'.

"I know that ten pounds worth of gold coins is nothing to you, a great physicist who has won numerous prizes in the past few years, and the prize money is so weak, but it is not good to lose face when the time comes.

"It just so happens that Werner, the witness at the time of our bet today, is also there, so why don't we cancel the original bet."

Just listening to the content of Pauli's words, he seemed to be thinking about Chen Muwu wholeheartedly.

But seeing the smug expression on his face that he couldn't control at all, everyone knew that this Jew definitely didn't have any good intentions.

He just wanted Chen Muwu to soften in front of Heisenberg and von Neumann, so that he could also win in front of others.

Pauli was Heisenberg's double brother, but not von Neumann's.

The two of them had no relationship other than that they were German-speaking Jews and both were from the former Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Moreover, von Neumann was a top student who studied mathematics at the University of Göttingen with the "king of mathematics" Hilbert, and in physics, he only respected his teacher who independently invented the general theory of relativity, and Chen Muwu, who was a physicist, but let his teacher be deflated in the axiom system of mathematics.

Although I don't understand the ins and outs of the matter, I don't know what the "anti-electron" mentioned a few times in the words just now is.

But what is he Wolfgang Pauli?

Von Neumann had already made a plan in his heart, as long as Dr. Chen gave the order, he would be the pioneer under the Chen family's army, and he must teach this arrogant Austrian a lesson with his fists, so that he can remember it for a long time.

Although they were defeated in the First World War, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was divided and disintegrated.

But as a descendant of the Hungarian nobility, the martial blood flowing in his body has not disappeared because of this.

Ten years of sharpening a sword, the frost blade has not been tried.

Who has a grievance today?

However, Chen Muwu, who was on the other side, did not have any angry reaction at all after hearing Pauli's words that seemed to be for his good, but were actually full of provocations.

He even asked with a smile:

"Professor Pauli, do you think the stakes are a little too small on this bet?

"It doesn't matter, as you said, Werner, the Witness we made the bet on, happened to be here, and Mr. von Neumann is with him today.

"If you want, you can raise the bet as much as you want, and I can accept as much as you want.

"What do you think of eight thousand pounds? That's about the same as the exact value of a Nobel Prize prize.

"I've already spent a lot of money, but if I really lose, I'll go to Sweden and get another prize, and I think if I find the positron, maybe it's worth a physics prize."

"When the time comes, after you collect your winnings in Stockholm, you can transfer the money directly to you through the bank, how about that?"

Chen Muwu's face sank like water, he forgot about the humiliation, and his heart was already happy.

Why is there still someone hitting the muzzle of the gun?

Could it be that this person really has a heart for himself, and not long ago, he discovered the associated product "positron" in the experiment of "discovering" neutrons, and he couldn't wait to send money to himself when he first met?

Invisible pretending is the most deadly.

Heisenberg was already frightened, and he feared that the two people, whose relations had only eased slightly, would start to work again because of Pauli's foul mouth.

Unexpectedly, Chen Muwu was even more ruthless here, and directly raised the previous bet from ten pounds to eight thousand pounds, which was directly multiplied by eight hundred times.

What kind of god is unfolding in this situation?

Who am I? Where am I?

Heisenberg doubted life on the one hand, but von Neumann admired Chen Muwu's confidence and domineering very much, and the husband should be the same.

When I go back, I will first study what this "anti-electron" is all about, and strive to publish a few papers as soon as Dr. Chen makes the experiment, so as to rub off on the popularity.

Pauli was caught off guard by Chen Muwu's response, he didn't expect the other party to be tough with him to the end.

Born into a family of medical doctors, his family was considered to be in the upper echelons of Austria, but not the top class, and far less rich than the Wittgensteins, who controlled the big steel companies.

Eight thousand pounds is no small amount for Pauli.

According to his current salary, at least he has to be a professor at the University of Berlin for more than ten years without eating or drinking to save such a large amount of money.

In the meantime, the German economy must remain strong and not collapse as it did in 1923.

The salary level in Cambridge should be similar to that of the University of Berlin.

And Chen Muwu is not even a professor, he is just a supernumerary staff member who eats with his teacher Rutherford with the title of doctor, and the salary he receives every month is only lower than his own.

He was so confident in the equation he wrote that the positively charged antielectron predicted in the equation must exist in this world?

Or is he more confident that he will win another Nobel Prize, and that he doesn't care about the £8,000 that many people don't necessarily save in a lifetime?

Pauli's original intention was to take advantage of his mouth, but he didn't expect that the end result was to stuff a tiger under his ass.

In a panic, Pauli forced himself to calm down, used the remaining rational empathy in his brain, and substituted himself into Chen Muwu's perspective to consider the problem.

He felt that he wanted Chen Muwu to be deflated in front of others, and Chen Muwu's intentions should be the same.

He deliberately gave an astronomical sum of eight thousand pounds, trying to scare people into accepting them.

If he retreats, he will be in Chen Muwu's arms, and he must be tough to the end at this time.

No matter how much anti-electronic is such a thing, it is impossible to appear in this world.

"Okay, bet on it! I happened to fall in love with a house near the University of Berlin, but I couldn't make up my mind because I was too shy to make up my mind.

"Since Dr. Chen is willing to send me money, then I will laugh it off.

"We've raised the bet to £8,000, so should we extend the bet for a few more years?"

Chen Muwu shook his head: "I don't think it's necessary, it's better to start from 1924 and limit it to ten years." ”

It won't take ten years, and it won't take seven years, and at the latest, next year at the latest, he will make public the major discoveries in nuclear physics that he has already made.

Chen Muwu has already determined the time for the public announcement in his mind, and after the Prince of Stockholm Academy is put into use, the antimatter positron of neutrons and electrons in the nucleus is the first achievement made by that school.

"Do we need to make a note?"

He added.

"Stand up!"

Pauli picked up Heisenberg's paper and pen on the table, and the pen quickly put the two of them into practice.

After signing his name, he slapped the pen in his hand on the paper and pushed it along the table to Chen Muwu.

"Dr. Chen, please."

Chen Muwu also drew a scoop according to the gourd and signed his name in the blank space on this piece of paper.

He also wrote a few more square words in order to prevent others from falsifying.

- Although no one will be bored to do this at all.

"How about asking Mr. Heisenberg to be this witness as we did last time?"

"I'm fine! Werner, please come and work hard, can you? ”

"Yes...... OK. ”

Heisenberg reluctantly agreed.

The two of you are fighting with the gods, what is the matter with having to pull me on this back?

But the candidates on both sides have a good relationship with him, and there is no reason why he should not agree to their request.

"But I want to say one thing in advance, I am only a witness to the two of you gambling contracts, and I am not responsible for the guarantee work.

"If you really find the anti-electron in the end, or if the ten-year period has expired, and one of them wants to deny it and does not fulfill the bet, I don't have the money to pay the eight thousand pounds for you!"

At this time, the degree of development between western and eastern Germany had not yet become as disparity as it was in the late twentieth century.

But at the University of Leipzig in eastern Germany, the salary of professors is certainly not as high as that of the University of Berlin, which is located in the capital.

For Heisenberg, who had just become a professor and had not yet received a few months' salary, it was much more difficult for him to save 80 million pounds than Pauli.

"You don't have to pay for it, you just need to be a witness,"

Pauli gave his junior brother a reassuring pill,

"And what are you doing so presumptuously? Maybe one day you will win the Nobel Prize in Physics and go to Stockholm to collect your £8,000! ”

At this time, Pauli had not forgotten the weirdness of yin and yang, and he secretly poked and poked the sarcasm of the kind of "arrogance" that Chen Muwu had just shown.

Seeing that the bet had been successfully validated, Heisenberg carefully put away the piece of paper with his and Pauli's names signed, and Chen Muwu finally achieved his real goal of inexplicably raising the bet from ten pounds to eight thousand pounds.

This bet will be decided by next year, and the result must have ended in the failure of his own discovery of the positron and Pauli.

At that time, even if Pauli grew three heads and six arms, he would not be able to immediately take out the 8,000 yuan bet.

Chen Muwu can be Huang Shiren "justifiably" again, forcing Pauli to leave the physics department of the University of Berlin and come to the Prince of Stockholm College, where he works as a teacher to pay off his debts.

He could also generously say that the bet was a joke, and the few Chinese characters written on the paper of the bet were not his name, but written in Chinese: "I will pay if I lose, Pauli will not want him to pay if I lose", and will not really claim the astronomical amount of eight thousand pounds from Pauli to invite people's hearts.

When the time comes, the initiative will all be in Chen Muwu's hands, and he can do whatever he wants.

And Pauli, who also watched Heisenberg put away the gambling contract, also had a thought in his heart.

Eight thousand pounds is not a small amount of money, as long as the bet is reported to the reporter, then the bet between the two will definitely appear in the newspapers.

This time, he had to let people all over the world see Chen Muwu's true face.

Positively charged antielectrons, how is it possible?

Could it be that there are still negatively charged nuclei in this world, so that positively charged antielectrons can revolve around her?

This is an unbelievable idea!
