Chapter 071: Direction
Not long after Su Hang sat at Zhong Changlin's house, Shang Jun, editor-in-chief of "Shanghai Sea", and Tan Fengzhen, editor-in-chief of "Qingxu", rushed over together, and went straight to the manuscript that a teenager had just finished when they entered the door.
The following lunch, the topic is not far from these.
Shang Jun first felt that the name "Gale" was too featureless, and after reading the content of the first chapter, he immediately had no opinion.
Tan Fengzhen also sighed.
The main thing is that the style of a certain teenager has changed dramatically this time, and the title of the book is back to basics, and the content is ...... For the time being, of course, it is not the whole book, but only looking at the 15,000 words of the first chapter, I only feel that if Su Hang changes his pen name, it will probably be difficult for anyone to recognize it.
After the lively lunch, Zhong Changlin and the three of them went straight to the headquarters of Boyi, and left Su and Hangzhou very nowhere to go.
Of course, there are explanations.
Zhong Changlin's meaning, the rest, will be entertained by his own baby girl, let Zhong Qiying take a teenager to her room first, to see the girl's collection of various insect specimens from childhood to adulthood.
There's no rush after that.
After all, the atmosphere of the New Year is still there, so you can go shopping together.
It's lively outside.
also asked her daughter not to be polite at all in front of a wealthy man, and to speak directly about what she wanted to buy.
Sending away a few fathers who were career-minded, Zhong Qiying turned to the side with a smile: "Su Hang, do you want to come to my house to see the specimens?" ”
"Let's go out for a walk, and then, it's time for me to go back to Heyuan."
Su Hang said with some regrets.
Shang Jun also hoped that he could write a preface in person at lunch, and Su Hang, who had to write a manuscript while celebrating the New Year, didn't want to use his brain cells anymore, so he pushed it.
I knew that I would go to the Boyi headquarters together.
Zhong Qiying nodded, but still pulled the young man into his room, since he was going out, he must dress up.
Incidentally......
Sure enough, he showed off the insect specimens he had collected since he was very young, and it was also the origin of Zhong Qiying's eventual ability to read biology.
Changed into a very bright and fluffy orange down jacket, the kind that looks very warm at first glance, and added a light blue velvet hat, wrapped around a thick scarf, the two said goodbye to Zhong Qiying's mother, and then went out.
Compared with Zhong Qiying's dazzling eyes, Su Hang, who was wearing a simple black down jacket and carrying a bag, looked much more ordinary, and even looked a little like a follower.
Coming downstairs, Zhong Qiying, who was jumping twice in the still cold air on the afternoon of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, quickly noticed someone's incongruity and laughed: "Look at it this way, you are not special at all, like a younger brother." ”
Su Hang just called Hu Jianlong, put away the small Nokia mobile phone that had been replaced recently, and walked to the gate of the community with the girl, while saying, "Originally, I was only 16 years old." ”
"Oh, think about it...... It's not so ordinary again. ”
Su Hang didn't talk much about this, but asked, "Where will you go later, or else, Asia?" ”
"Really, I'm really not welcome, rich man."
"The little rich man."
"Well, compared to those world-class rich people, you are indeed very small. There is a ...... in the United States Bill Gates, who was worth $12.9 billion last year, do you have $10 million? ”
"I don't think so."
Zhong Qiying paced: "Looking at what those newspapers are saying to you during this time, I feel that a group of frogs at the bottom of the well." ”
"Makes sense."
Zhong Qiying walked sideways and looked at the side: "I said that you are a frog at the bottom of the well, this is the reaction?" ”
"Aren't you talking about those newspapers?"
"And you!"
"Sister Qi Ying, this is hurting," Su Hang made a look of injury: "Wait a minute, I won't help you pay." ”
"I don't plan to spend you," Zhong Qiying raised his chin: "Sister is rich, in the UK, in addition to scholarships, I also earn a lot of part-time jobs." ”
As he spoke, he took out a white purse and shook it.
Su Hang stretched out his hand, and the girl handed it over.
When I opened it, it was a thick stack of banknotes.
Handing it back again, Su Hang smiled and said, "You are also a little rich man." ”
Zhong Qiying took back her wallet, but said: "So, you can take the time to help talk to my dad, so that he doesn't always think about helping me raise money, in case I get into it again that day, the gains outweigh the losses." ”
"Uncle Zhong is very measured," Su Hang smiled: "Moreover, why don't you say it yourself?" ”
"I said, it doesn't work," Zhong Qiying said: "You have more weight here with my dad, I came back this time, and he can't wait to add two sentences related to you in his daily three sentences, and his ears are about to grind out calluses." ”
"Okay, I'll tell you about it."
"Sounds perfunctory."
Su Hang made a gesture to take out his mobile phone from his satchel: "Or I'll call now." ”
Zhong Qiying stopped and nodded his head heavily: "Fight!" ”
Su Hang withdrew his hand: "Forget it, don't be so angry, advise your girl's family to slow down, otherwise she will grow old quickly." ”
"Little slippery."
When he came to the gate of the community, Hu Jianlong just arrived.
The two got into the car, but Zhong Qiying had no intention of going to the mall, but proposed to take a car around the city casually.
Su Hang also has no opinion.
So, Santana began to shuttle through the streets and alleys of the commercial capital in early 1996, and the two people in the car were looking out of the car window with great interest, all kinds of buildings, all kinds of pedestrians, all kinds of streets.
Passing by an electrical appliance mall, Su Hang also asked Hu Jianlong to stop.
I bought a camera at random, or a seagull.
Keep walking, shooting as you go.
Occasionally, there will be a stop in some alleys.
In this way, at about three o'clock in the afternoon, I returned to the neighborhood where Zhong's family was located again, and the car was parked on the bank of the Yuchuan River.
The two came to the river and took a few more photos, Zhong Qiying pulled the boy to sit down on a bench, looked at the gray sky, and turned to the frozen Yuchuan River, the river was frozen very strong, many people played on it, and there were stalls for rental skates not far away.
Zhong Qiying was a little eager to try, thinking that the young man had just said that it was time to leave, so he dispelled his thoughts and looked aside: "It feels pretty good to be with you." ”
Su Hang just changed a roll of film for the camera, held it up and took a picture, and said with a smile: "Don't like me, I have too many love debts now." ”
"I'm eight years older than you."
"Actually, I prefer older ones."
Zhong Qiying opened her mouth slightly: "Huh? ”
Su Hang looked at the girl again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you belong to the kind of small, I mean, well, mental age...... At least one round younger than me. ”
"Little round ......" Zhong Qiying's eyes also widened: "What do you mean...... I'm only four years old? ”
"That's not how it is," Su Hang said, "My mental age is more than 16 years old. ”
"How much is that?"
"Secret."
"......Shh
Zhong Qiying pursed her lips, still curious in the blink of an eye, leaned to the side, and touched a certain guy: "How much?" ”
"Forty or fifty."
"Shh
"Well, thinking about it this way, I just miscalculated, your mental age is estimated to be three rounds younger than me."
Zhong Qiying began to snap her fingers, and then turned to the side: "I'm still a minor, but I'm studying for a doctorate, and I'm still at Imperial College." ”
"Children like to show off their education."
Zhong Qiying: "......"
Zhong Qiying: "What about adults?" ”
"Adults are more concerned, but they usually don't put it on their lips and are more restrained."
"So, what about you?"
"Me...... I didn't think about it. ”
"I feel it," Zhong Qiying said, "a pessimist who doesn't care about anything. ”
"Incisive."
Zhong Qiying raised her chin again, looking arrogant, and said in a blink of an eye: "However, it's not right for you to have a little money, it's like seeing through the red dust, which is not good." Just think about it...... Well, the gap between you and that Bill Gates. ”
"I didn't think there was so much money," Su Hang shook his head: "It's annoying to have too much money." ”
"Tsk......" Zhong Qiying rolled his eyes: "Then you give me all the money, I'm ...... In the UK, there are actually a lot of experiments that I want to do, but they cost too much money and can't get the funds approved, so I have to give up. ”
"Okay."
"Really?"
"Of course I won't give it all to you," Su Hang said with a smile: "However, if you really need it in the future, you can tell me." ”
"I really need it now," Zhong Qiying began to fold his fingers again: "There is a project for the synthesis of neuronal proteins, and several of the materials are expensive, as well as instruments...... Well, all down, one experiment, it will cost about twenty thousand pounds. ”
"Twenty thousand pounds, it should be two or three hundred thousand yuan, right?"
Zhong Qiying stepped aside: "Reluctant? ”
"No," Su Hang shook his head: "I just suddenly felt that I was really a poor person." ”
"Okay, just when I didn't say it," Zhong Qiying said, "When I go back to the UK and continue to apply to the school, they should have paid for it." ”
"Hmm."
Zhong Qiying pouted again: "You are so irresponsible, who was so arrogant just now?" ”
"It's just now," Su Hang shook his head: "It's now." ”
"You guy......" Zhong Qiying raised her little hand and hit it gently: "I used to have a good impression of you, but now, no." ”
"I'm just thinking about one thing."
"Huh?"
"20,000 pounds smashed in, just one ......"
"Neuronal Protein Synthesis."
"That's it, it doesn't seem to be of much use. It's nothing to spend money, but I'm a person who doesn't like to do useless work. ”
"That's how scientific research is," Zhong Qiying said, "When you Einstein discovered the mass-energy equation, no one thought it was useful at first, and as a result, the earth was almost tossed away by that group of people." ”
"That's just as well."
"You're diverting the topic," Zhong Qiying was very smart: "Just ...... What are you thinking about? ”
"Poor," Su Hang said, "I should make more money, and I will ...... in the future Throwing in 20 billion pounds at once may be of some use. ”
"Two Billion ...... Pound sterling? ”
"So, to a certain extent, it's back to the topic we discussed at your house before," Su Hang said with a smile: "A lot of basic scientific research still needs to be done by all mankind, because only in this way can we get enough resources." ”
"But you pessimist, don't you mean...... Well, there is no confrontation, so what...... Is it going to stagnate? ”
"yes."
"That's not it."
"It's not."
"Hmm."
"That's it...... If this direction is determined, the feeling is ...... It will be tiring. ”
"What's tiring?"
"It should be something for all mankind to pry alone," Su Hang looked at the girl on the side: "Do you think it will be very tiring?" ”
"I'm tired of listening."
"That's what I'm thinking about," Su Hang said, "20,000 pounds into it, maybe you won't even see a splash, but if you can have 20 billion pounds, maybe you can see something." If there could be more, it would be able to break the stagnation of my previous judgment. ”
"Two billion pounds is already a fantasy, and you have more?"
"Sister Qi Ying, haven't you heard a lot of things about me?"
"Hmm."
"Then you should know," Su Hang said with a smile, "I'm a person who is very good at using leverage." ”
Zhong Qiying thought of those things of a certain teenager in the stock market, and said: "Use other people's money to make money for you? ”
"That's probably it."
"You're really good."
"It's really nothing now," Su Hang smiled: "In the future, it will not be so difficult to leverage hundreds of billions, trillions, in my opinion, with this amount of funds to do basic scientific research, what do you think will happen?" ”
"Hundreds of billions and trillions, you can brag about it."
"If you don't believe it, then I can't help it," Su Hang said with a smile: "However, in my opinion, this is the only way to make a fundamental breakthrough in human science in the next few decades." ”
"You're pessimistic."
"Huh?"
"At this stage, there is actually so much investment in countries around the world every year," Zhong Qiying said, "Why are you sure that there will be no results in the next few decades, and you can only use the power of private capital?" ”
Why is it certain?
That's a problem.
I can't say it.
So there was some excitement.
Zhong Qiying glanced to the side and suddenly snorted: "I suddenly found that the matter of 20,000 pounds was bypassed by you like this." ”
"I don't like to slap a swollen face and be fat."
"It's only 20,000 pounds," Zhong Qiying was obviously looking forward to some experiment, and softened her hoarse baby voice: "I know, my dad said, you made money from the stock market, it seems to be ...... A foreign exchange for that, right? ”
"Well, $5 million."
"Then I don't have 20,000 pounds."
"Yes, I don't think it's too much, I just said it," Su Hang said: "It's too little, a drop in the bucket, useless." ”
"I don't think as much," Zhong Qiying paused, reached over, and grabbed the young man's arm slightly: "Su Hang, if you support me in doing the experiment, I will ...... Well, as my dad wanted, how about being your girlfriend? ”
Su Hang shook his head with a smile: "Sister Qiying, no." ”
"I'm serious."
"Don't take it so seriously, life is already boring."
Zhong Qiying was suddenly deflated, the fluffy down jacket seemed to be deflated, and her body leaned over and leaned on the young man's shoulder: "Alas, it's so annoying." ”
Su Hang thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, people, it's better to be self-reliant, you can try to make money on your own, well, I happened to hear a story, like a guy, interested in archaeology, it should be archaeology, maybe something else." But he didn't have any money, so he went to the sea to do business, made millions, and went back to continue archaeology. Then, after spending it, he came out to do business again. ”
Zhong Qiying understood what the young man meant, his head raised slightly, fell again, and knocked on someone's shoulder: "I'm not you, it's okay to work and make a little money, where can I make millions." ”
"You're a female doctor."
"Reading."
"Well, I'm studying for a female doctorate," Su Hang said with a smile: "It means that the brain melon must be enough." ”
"And then?"
"And then, I'm a person who happens to have a bunch of ideas to make money."
