Chapter 150: Remorse
And as a representative of the heavy industry of steelmaking enterprises, adding steel furnaces, recruiting workers, and even building and expanding factories are not something that can be solved in a while, and when they are all ready, it is estimated that Chu Hao has developed a lower-cost titanium alloy, so wouldn't it be more profitable. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Therefore, the most important thing now is how they get the titanium alloy formula from Chu Hao's hands, if there is no Chu Hao's formula, wouldn't it be all in vain, as for the formula authorization, or direct formula transfer, this can be discussed, of course, they are naturally more inclined to formula transfer, everyone knows, monopoly can maximize profits.
At this time, Professor Steven's face was pale, and his mood sank directly into the endless abyss, and he couldn't climb out again.
He originally held that, according to the research direction pointed out by Chu Hao, he also studied low-cost titanium alloys, and he believed that with his own conditions and many years of experience, he could develop low-cost titanium alloys before Chu Hao, in this way, the final winner was still him.
Even he can already imagine how much honor he can get with low-cost titanium alloys, as well as countless money.
But now it's a good thing, Chu Hao actually directly developed a low-cost titanium alloy, and all his dreams were like an exploding bubble, directly shattering without a trace and disappearing.
And he could also imagine that as soon as Chu Hao's low-cost titanium alloy appeared, the results and experience accumulated by his decades of research would also turn into nothingness, and everything needed to start from scratch.
But it's not easy to start from scratch, not to mention whether he still has the courage to enter this new field, after all, for him, and even most of the laboratories, their research goal has always been on the mechanical properties of titanium alloys, as long as they do not pursue excellent mechanical properties, basically the cost will not be too high, so low-cost titanium alloy is a new field for them.
They are really poor in the field of low-cost titanium alloys, and their original knowledge and experience reserves are not used, and they need to be re-explored.
This is not the key, because the vocation of researchers is to explore, discover, and delve into new areas, and the key is the source of funding.
Originally, before Chu Hao's low-cost titanium alloy appeared, he was still sure to move the school, and even the British government agencies, to let them invest in him, but now that Chu Hao's research results have been placed in front of everyone, at least the school understands it, and the school will definitely not be willing to invest in a project that can only pick up people's wisdom and not bring any benefits to the school's reputation.
As for taking money from the company, looking at the people in charge of these enterprises in front of them like gamblers, red eyes, crazy eyes, you know that their hearts are all in Chu Hao, maybe after Chu Hao negotiates the transfer or authorization of the formula, those frustrated people who can't get the formula will be like a wailing defeated dog, come to his side, give him investment, and hope to get the ticket to this wealth feast.
But how long will it take for him to be able to research low-cost titanium alloys, Steven is not a little sure in his heart, three or five years, or even seven or eight years is not unusual, can those companies wait for such a long time?
However, in fact, this is not the point, what scares him the most is that Chu Hao's talent, god-like research ability, this low-cost titanium alloy he developed in a few years, a year, or two years, and maybe even only six months.
This was still done when Chu Hao had almost nothing, but now Chu Hao was already full of aura, as long as he was willing to reach out, countless funds, and the top laboratories would come to his hands.
In the face of such Chu Hao, continuing to compete with it in the field of titanium alloy will undoubtedly be a dead end.
What else can he do without doing research?
Back to school full-time teaching?
There are no projects, doesn't it mean that countless scientific research funds have nothing to do with him, what Conrad Hotel's executive business room, Palatu's red wine also has nothing to do with him, when he thinks of this, Steven feels heart-wrenching!
And Barritt on the side, his face is better than Steven's, but he can't see where to go.
If it weren't for his greed for Steven's sponsorship, this great scientific research achievement should actually be announced by the Chinese Journal of Materials, so that the Chinese Journal of Materials Science could take advantage of this to soar into the sky and absorb better papers, and the impact factor would not be a problem from 3 points to 4.5 points, or even 6 points or 7 points.
And he, the editor-in-chief, can also gain fame and fortune, and his position and salary can be raised to a higher level, but now it's good, there is nothing left, and the dream is empty.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt chagrin and remorse, but a thought suddenly flashed through Barrit's mind, and his face instantly turned pale, and cold sweat flowed!
He suddenly realized now that if Chu Hao deliberately revoked his paper, and then used public opinion to suppress himself everywhere, so that he could not get the support of other scholars and professors to be exposed, then his reputation would be completely stinky, not to mention promotion and salary increase, I am afraid that he would not even be able to be the editor-in-chief, and it would be good not to be kicked out of the Journal of Materials.
"Steven, you have to help me, if the two of us suppress Chu Hao and are known, I will be finished, you must help me, you must know that it is all because of you that I did this. Barrett grabbed Steven's arm like a drowning man grasping at the last straw, and said in a panic.
Steven has a relationship with the Chinese Journal of Materials, not only has a relationship with him, but also has a good relationship with the president of the Chinese Journal of Materials, and if Steven is willing to stand up for him, maybe he can keep the position of editor-in-chief.
"What?"
Steven looked at Barrett with a blank look on his face as if he had just woken up, his mind empty.
Seeing this, Barrett hurriedly told Steven what he thought of it.
Hearing this, Steven's face changed drastically, like a lightning strike, he didn't think of how miserable Barrett's fate would be, he first thought of himself.
If this matter is known to the school, he will be completely finished, and his reputation for many years will be ruined, and even the school can even be stripped of his status as a professor, and then he will be kicked out of the school.
For a while, Steven's mind was completely messed up, and he was even on the verge of collapse, the scientific research project was gone, the funding was gone, the executive business room of the Condela Hotel was gone, the red wine in Palatu was gone, and even the identity of a professor was gone, and finally he might not even have a job, and he was about to have nothing.
