Chapter 187: Fanatical Tech Nerd
This dinner Zhou Yu had a very fulfilling time, and he got to know a lot of people under Roosevelt's introduction, some of these people were friendly to him, interested in him, perfunctory to him, and disdainful of him, but no matter what, most of the guests did not show too obvious in Roosevelt's face.
None of this matters to Zhou Yu, what matters is that after the banquet, he and Van Nevabush can sit in the back seat of a car and discuss technical terms far beyond their time.
Zack, the driver, felt like a newborn baby, unable to understand what his boss and his new friend were saying, not even punctuation.
Originally, Van Nevabush wanted Zhou Yu to take him home and have a good chat on the way by the way, but who knew that this distance was not enough for the two of them to talk freely.
Helplessly, Fan Neva insisted on sending Zhou Yu back to his Dragon Guild Hall on the grounds that the two hit it off at first sight, and said that he wanted to recognize the door, and if he had any new ideas and problems in technology in the future, he could come to Zhou Yu to continue to talk.
By the time the car drove to the Dragon Guild Hall, the time had already pointed to one o'clock in the morning, and this genius scientist with dark circles under his eyes had no intention of leaving at all.
In desperation, Zhou Yu could only keep him to live in his own hall and vacate a guest room for him.
Unexpectedly, Fan Neva, who met for the first time, agreed without any sense of boundary, he was like a desert desperate for rain, and he really didn't want to let Zhou Yu go so simply.
"Van Neva, my friend, I think you can take a nap........ You see, it's four o'clock in the morning, and I'll give you a sketch of the kind of differential analyzer you're interested in, including how it works......
"You know, I have a lot of mundane things to do, and I can't devote myself to it, so this project is up to you, and you can create anything out of it and don't forget to tell me."
"Oh my God~~~ Bruce, you still do sketches? So what the hell am I going to sleep? Let's get started now~! ”
Vanneva waved his arms almost frantically, using movements to strengthen his tone.
Zhou Yu was too sleepy, but with the influence of this genius who was obsessed with technology, he knew that he couldn't get rid of this Frankenstein without coming up with some dry goods.
At the moment, Zhou Yu recalled as much as possible in his mind the initial form of differential analyzer that he had seen in books when he was in class.
It was supposed to be the world's first mechanical computer to be used to solve differential equations, and was considered by the latter to be the forerunner of electronic computers, but it was a far cry from the general impression of a computer, it didn't have a keyboard, and even the main body needed a few tens of square meters of open space to place, and it even looked a bit like a pool table.
Such an instrument is complicated to operate and even more laborious to make, but it is undeniable that at this stage, this is the most cutting-edge technological product.
In order to save time, Zhou Yu hurriedly took out a pencil and ruler and began to draw quickly on a blank piece of paper.
In the process, Van Neva waited for two bloodshot eyes, staring at the blank paper from empty to dense, and a strange frenzy popped up in the depths of his eyes.
When Zhou Yu got up and exhaled and moved his back, Faneva rushed to the place where he had just sit, staring at the fine sketch in front of him, and couldn't speak for a long time.
Bruce ...... It is the greatest loss of humanity that you do not devote yourself to scientific research, and why do you want to go into business when you have such a miraculous gift? ”
Zhou Yu didn't expect that the other party's first reaction turned out to be anger.
Yes, Van Nevabush stared at the sketch for a while, showing real anger, he was angry that Zhou Yu had such a genius brain and hands and used it to do business, which was simply a tyrannical thing, and he did not learn and did not know.
The corners of Zhou Yu's mouth twitched, he reached out and pinched his eyebrows and said: "Faneva, life is not only about scientific inventions, of course, it is not only about making money in business, I do business differently from ordinary businessmen, it is too early to tell you this, but you just need to know that I am not just to make money."
"Don't worry, as long as I have similar inspiration and ideas, I will put it on paper as soon as possible, and hand it over to you, a real genius in the field of science, to study and expand, this is a secret between us, and it can be regarded as a little regret that you helped me satisfy that I didn't become a scientist."
Fannewa shook his head silently, rolled up the sketch as if he had found a treasure, and said with a look of course:
"Alright Bruce, I hope you can install a phone here as soon as possible, I'll leave you the phone numbers for my lab and residence, and I'll be the first to let you know if there is any progress or bottlenecks in the future.
"I'm still the same sentence, it's a waste to use a genius mind like you only to do business, okay, you don't have to explain, I can't understand your explanation, as long as you don't give up the exploration and desire for knowledge in related fields in the future, after all, any scientific research is inseparable from the support of money, prepare a car to send me back."
Zhou Yu was a little speechless, communicating with this kind of supreme genius who is obsessed with a certain field, any words and skills have become ornaments, and dealing with them only needs to go straight.
"Okay, I'd like to install a phone as soon as possible, but you know, it's a bit of a hassle to install these days, and maybe I can give some trivial advice to the relevant departments to help them speed up the process."
"Oh Bruce, I have to remind you again, don't get distracted by too many things, or I'll think you're showing off your genius mind~! That's all for today, I can't wait to bring this machine to life in the sketch. ”
Zhou Yu didn't talk nonsense, called the driver Zack, and sent Hu Rentian to send the distinguished guest back to his residence safely, and then he fell on the bed and slept for two hours in a hurry.
When he was woken up by the cripple, he felt that his brain was groggy and his eyes were extremely dry.
But there was no way, there were still many important things waiting for him to do, so he could only wash his face with cold water and cheer up: "How is it...... Is there a result? ”
The cripple said with obvious excitement on his face: "Mr. Zhou, after you reminded me yesterday, I personally took someone to check on the Situ Meitang from Boston, and found that he had actually arrived in New York a week ago, but he had been living in the mansion provided by Councilman Servis, and had not gone out.
I have reason to suspect that the person who did it to Mr. Zhou at the charity auction is likely to be his person! And his appearance also shows that he doesn't intend to hide all the time, this is a provocation to Mr. Zhou, do you want to take Ah Ghost to ....... now"
The cripple made a vicious gesture to wipe his neck, but Zhou Yu raised his hand and said: "Don't worry, the person who comes is a guest, since he dares to swagger in front of us, he must be prepared for the relevant aspects, at this time, we will go, we will fall into the trap arranged by the other party in advance." ”
Zhou Yumo rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment and said: "It's good to send someone to watch from afar, since he will definitely hit the idea of Chinatown when he arrives in New York, tell the directors of the Chinese Federation, and say that the day after tomorrow I will hold a banquet in the Hutchison Tea House and invite everyone to dinner." ”
"Yes, Mr. Zhou."
