„Drops.”
“放手。”„Ido not put, only ifyoucannot guarantee!”
“我不放,除非你保证不走!”„......”
“……”
The Lu Zhoufullheavy linelooksto hugProfessorSurrott of thigh, the heartsaid that thisfellow is really the professor of Cornell University?陆舟满头黑线地看着抱着自己大腿的萨罗特教授,心说这家伙真的是康奈尔大学的教授吗?Tradeshiswords, definitelycannot lag behindthisface......
换他的话,肯定拉不下这个脸……Woolfwas a facecompelsignorant there, some little timerecovered, rushesto helpownemployer.
伍尔夫则是一脸懵逼地愣在了那里,好一会儿才回过神来,赶忙上去帮自己的雇主。Howeverhewas slowonestep, Surrottlet go.
不过他还是慢了一步,萨罗特自己松手了。BecauseLu Zhoupromisedhim, giveshimfiveminutes, chooseshisreasontooneself.
因为陆舟答应了他,给他五分钟的时间,给自己一个选择他的理由。Underobligation that inseeking livehoodto want, ProfessorSurrotthas not pulledsomeidle talk, sitsafter the sofa, immediatelysays.
在求生欲的驱使下,萨罗特教授没有扯些废话,在沙发上坐下来之后,立刻说道。„5 millionUS dollars, Isold toyoumySurrottResearch institute, Ibelieve that the entireSilicon Valleywas impossibleto find the initial pricecompared withIcheaperresearch institute. Ido not wantotherthing, whatpatentanythingresearch resultsareyour, so long asyoumakemestay in the research team.”
“五百万美元,我就把我的萨罗特研究所卖给你,我相信整个硅谷不可能找到开价比我更便宜的研究所。我不要别的东西,什么专利什么研究成果都是你的,只要你让我留在研究团队里。”Thissayingsaid is actually not false, 5 millionUS dollarssell out the entireresearch institute, is almost equivalent to the equipment in research institute, when the junksold.
这话说的倒是不假,五百万美元卖掉整个研究所,几乎是相当于把研究所里的设备当破铜烂铁卖了。Even if the sameequipmentlooked everywhere the second-handinstrumentmarket, was impossibleto findthispriceis cheaper. Moreoverinstrument that the secondary marketbuys, variousaspectperformancesuitableis unreliable, especiallyon the state-of-artequipment, the smallerror, possiblycausedothers unable to repeatyourresult.
同样的设备哪怕找遍了二手仪器市场,也不可能找到比这个价格更便宜的。而且二手市场买来的仪器,各方面性能都相当的不可靠,尤其在尖端的设备上,一点微小的误差,都可能导致别人重复不了你的结果。Offeredthispricetime, inSurrottheartalsoindropblood.
报出这个价格的时候,萨罗特心中也在滴血。Even if when the equipment locatorsold, so long asfound the rightbuyer, theseinstruments can also sell7,000,000-8,000,000US dollars.
哪怕是当二手设备卖了,只要找到合适的买家,这些仪器也能卖出个7,000,000-8,000,000美元。However, thisis not the issue of money.
然而,这不是钱的问题。HoweverLu Zhousowill not be obviously simplebyhimis convinced, after all when two peoplefirst meetingscene, reallyhadshocking, heonlyflies the leather shoesimpression of platform is still profoundtothatnow.
不过陆舟显然不会这么简单被他说服,毕竟两人初次见面时的场景,实在是太具有冲击性了,以至于他现在对那只飞上讲台的皮鞋依旧印象深刻。„Thenlooks that youdo usemynameto mooch?”
“然后看着你用我的名字招摇撞骗?”ProfessorSurrottargueddiscontentedly: „Whatismooches? Do Ihaveto divert the research spendingto buy the car(riage)or the bubblelittle girlforme? No! AllmoneyIspentat the experiment! All that Imakeforscience! IfIdo not need the exaggeratingtechniqueto describe the wonderfulprospectfortheselaymen, somepeoplewill not take out moneyformyresearch......”
萨罗特教授不满地争辩道:“什么叫招摇撞骗?我有挪用科研经费给我自己买车或者泡妞吗?没有!所有的钱我都花在了实验上!我所做的一切都是为了科学!如果我不用夸张的手法为那些外行们描绘美妙的前景,就不会有人为我的研究掏钱……”Lu Zhouhas not caredSurrott'squibbling, 5 millionUS dollarsoffersbuttrulywere much lower thanhispsychologyprice, makinghimverydifficultto reject.陆舟并没有将萨罗特的狡辩放在心上,但五百万美元的报价确实远远低于了他心理价位,让他很难拒绝。Actuallyto be honest, canbe the professorinCornell University, Surrott'sleveldefinitelyhas.
其实说实话,能在康奈尔大学当教授,萨罗特的水平肯定是有的。InSilicon Valleythisplace, will operate the semelectron microscopecollectionimage the doctoryearly salary100,000 to inviteone, butcandirectonegroup of doctorsto do the experiment, calf that successfullycompletes the topic, resulted in the spend sometime to find.
在硅谷这种地方,会操作sem电镜采集图像的博士年薪十万就能请一个,但能指挥着一群博士做实验,顺利完成课题的小牛,还是得花点功夫才能找到的。After allthesepeopleoftenhaveoneselfproject, condition that only if unable to reject, otherwisecannotbe gladto giveothersto work.
毕竟这些人往往都有自己的项目,除非是无法拒绝的条件,否则不太会乐意给别人打工。Inmaterial sciencethisdomain, Surrottevenis not the bigcow, the calfcan be said. Althoughlikes the mouthfulrunningtrain, butdoes not have the obviousstain at least on the learning.
在材料学这个领域,萨罗特即便算不上大牛,小牛还是称得上的。虽然喜欢满嘴跑火车,但至少在学术上没有明显的污点。Ifmustrequesthimwith the standard of sage, as ifalsowent too far.
如果非要用圣人的标准来要求他,似乎也太过分了点。
After the heartmeasuredone, Lu Zhoudecidesto givehim an opportunity.
在心中权衡了一番之后,陆舟决定给他一个机会。As forcangrasp, looked athe himself.
至于能不能把握住,就看他自己了。
, Lu Zhouopened the mouthto sayslowly,„Icangiveyou an opportunity.”
顿了顿,陆舟缓缓开口道,“我可以给你一个机会。”OnSurrottfaceshows the joyfulexpression, is preparingto speak, butLu Zhouactuallysnatchesinhisfront , to continue saying: „Imusttellyou, opportunityonly thenonetime, ifyouwantto treatinmyresearch team, Ihope that youare honestenough, especiallydo not wanthonestmistake ’ to deceivemewiththese ‚.”
萨罗特脸上露出欣喜的表情,正准备说话,不过陆舟却是抢在他的前面,继续说道:“不过我必须告诉你,机会只有一次,如果你想待在我的研究团队里,我希望你足够诚实,尤其别想拿那些‘诚实的错误’来糊弄我。”Surrottwithout hesitation, is striking one's chesttoLu Zhouguarantees saying: „In the name ofGod, Ipledgedtoyou.”
萨罗特毫不犹豫,拍着胸脯向陆舟保证道:“以上帝的名义,我向你发誓。”Lu Zhouindifferentlysaid: „Very regrettable I am the atheist, Iwill restrainyouwith the contract.”陆舟无动于衷道:“很遗憾我是无神论者,我会用合同来约束你。”Surrottmade a helplessexpression, shrugsto expressandnot care.
萨罗特做了个无奈的表情,耸了耸肩表示并不在意。Lu ZhoulookedtonearbyWoolf, hintedhimto put out the contract.陆舟看向了旁边的伍尔夫,示意他拿出合同。Woolfsomewhatscruplelooked atLu Zhouone, seems using the lookto inquire„appropriatelythis?”
伍尔夫有些迟疑的看了陆舟一眼,仿佛是在用眼神询问“这合适吗?”Howeversaw that ownemployernods, heis not sayinganything, put out the contractfrom the briefcase, inscribedamountand otherinformationwith the ball penin the blankplacefast.
不过见到自己的雇主点了点头,他也就不在说什么,从公文包里拿出了合同,用圆珠笔快速地在留白处写上了金额等信息。Stands upfrom the sofa, Lu Zhoulooks atSurrott, said: „Contractbelieves that youhave looked, whatchangedis only the amount, naturally, you can also takeare studyingslowly. Ifirsttransfer the revolutionsin the research instituteeverywhere, ifyoufavored, callsme.”
从沙发上站起身来,陆舟看着萨罗特,说道:“合同相信你已经看过了,变的只是金额,当然,你也可以拿着慢慢研究。我先在研究所里四处转转,如果你看好了,给我打电话。”
......
……Surrottis very astute.
萨罗特很精明。Whatheveryclearneedisanything, veryclearregarding a scholar, the trulyimportantthingisanything.
他很清楚自己需要的是什么,也很清楚对于一名学者而言,真正重要的东西是什么。
The bigcowis the bigcow, is notbecausetheirheadshave the multi-talents, because theycando the research fundforever, foreversomepeoplepayfortheirresearch.
大牛之所以是大牛,不是因为他们的脑袋有多天才,而是因为他们永远能搞到研究经费,永远有人为他们的研究买单。Regardingmaterial sciencethisdomain, almost allachievementsarepilebymoney.
对于材料学这个领域,几乎所有成果都是得靠钱堆出来的。Without the support of research fund, «siene»did not send. Butcould not send«siene», means that did not have the achievement. Without the achievement, somepeoplewill not investonhim.
没有研究经费的支撑,一篇《siene》都发不了。而发不了《siene》,就意味着没有成果。没有成果,就不会有人在他身上投资。In some sense, relations between the academic circleposition and research spending, looking like the hen are like the egg.
从某种意义上来讲,学术界地位和科研经费之间的关系,就像是母鸡和鸡蛋一样。So long ashad the former, the latterto him, did not call the matter.
只要拥有了前者,后者对于他来说,根本就不叫事儿。Alsoisthisreason, oninitially an investordisinvested, washeis clenching teethto borrow a loanfrom the bank, shelled out the research instituteinthesebecause ofdisinvesting, butwas nearly regarded the instrument that sold outtatteredbuying.
也正是出于这个理由,当初上一位投资人撤资的时候,是他咬着牙从银行借了一笔贷款,自掏腰包将研究所里那些因为撤资而险些被当成破烂卖掉的仪器给买了下来。Alsois the similarreason, heis willingat5 millionUS dollarslosing moneyprices, to sell toLu Zhouthisresearch institutetogether withhimself.
也正是出于同样的理由,他肯以五百万美元的亏本价,将这家研究所连同自己卖给陆舟。
The research teamdid not haveindifferently, keepsin the handalsoonly to visititin any caseto be mildewy.
研究团队没了无所谓,反正留在手上也只能看着它发霉。Moneylittleselectshim is also indifferent, 5 millionUS dollarsenoughreturnhimto owe the loan of bank.
钱给少点他也无所谓,五百万美元足够还上他欠银行的贷款。Althoughthismeans that hewill not have a thing in the world, has to the gravity headcomeagain, buthebelieves that oneselfchoiceis correct.
虽然这意味着他将一无所有,不得不重头再来,但他相信自己的选择是正确的。Followsthisbig shotto make the topic, first matter of fundsdoes not needto be worriedcompletely. Even ifLu Zhouownmoneyis insufficient, will havegreatly the enterpriseis gladtaking out moneyto makehimcontinueto study.
跟着这位大佬做课题,首先经费的事情完全不用担心。哪怕陆舟自己的钱不够用了,也会有大把的企业乐意掏钱让他继续研究下去。So long ascanproduce the achievement, so long asin the paperhashisspace, even ifmakeshimworkheto be gladto dowhite/in vain.
只要能出成果,只要论文上有他的一席之地,哪怕让他白干活他都乐意干下去。That day when the achievementcomes out, no one accountantcompared withhispast, howno onewill care abouthim is not once unsuccessful, hewill become the Cornell Universitybattery materialdomainauthority, hisalma materwill takehisnameas the honor......
而等到成果出来的那天,没有人会计较他的过去,没有人会在意他曾经如何不得志,他会成为康奈尔大学电池材料领域的权威,他的母校会以他的名字为荣……Hisintuitiontold itself, on this daywill not wait is too long, thisinvestmentwas worthabsolutely!
他的直觉告诉自己,这一天不会等太久,这笔投资绝对是值得的!Has not madeLu Zhouwait foris too long, after Surrott the contractlooked atonefrom beginning to end, theninendsignedownname.
并没有让陆舟等待太久,萨罗特将合同从头到尾看了一遍之后,便在末尾处签上了自己的名字。Besides a transfercontract of research institute, an employmentagreementand a confidentiality agreement.
除了一份研究所的转让合同之外,还有一份雇佣协议和一份保密协议。Lu Zhouinvitedhimto hold the post of the head of research instituteat100,000US dollarsyearly salary, as forraising in salaryorotherbenefits, looked athisfollow-upperformance.陆舟以十万美元的年薪聘请他担任研究所的负责人,至于加薪或者其他福利,就看他自己的后续表现了。Finished talking the matter on contract, was the matter on research.
谈完了合同上的事,接着就是研究上的事情了。
After lettingWoolf first stepgoes back, Lu Zhou the USBinsertson the notebook, assigned outhim the molecular model that uses the hyperhemsoftwareto draw up.
让伍尔夫先一步回去之后,陆舟将u盘插在了笔记本电脑上,调出了他用hyperhem软件重新绘制的分子模型。Looksto appearin the screen the ball structure, inSurrott'seyesappeared the look of being interested.
看着出现在屏幕中球状结构,萨罗特的眼中浮现了感兴趣的神色。„Is this?”
“这是?”Lu Zhou: „Thisiswhat you do not needto know,in factexcept forusing the method of mathcalculatedbesidesomeinterestingthings, Iam not very definiteitsvalue. Ineedyouaccording tomyrequest, helpingmecompletesomeexperiments, confirmsmein the guess in computationmaterial. Ifyouachievedaccording tomyrequest, Iwill makeyournameappearin the paper.”陆舟:“这是什么你不需要知道,事实上除了用数学的方法推算出一些有意思的东西之外,我也不是很确定它的价值。我需要你按照我的要求,帮我完成一些实验,验证我在计算材料方面的一些猜测。如果你按我的要求做到了,我会让你的名字出现在论文中。”Saying, Lu Zhouselectedunder the mouse.
说着,陆舟点了下鼠标。
The graph in screenstartsto transform, at the same time, hecontinuedbright way.
屏幕中的图形开始变换,与此同时,他继续说明道。„ManyinformationIhave no wayto providetoyou, I can only tellyou, thisisonethrowsby the fullerencematerial and carbon nanotubematerialprocessdevelops the graph that the transformationobtains. In the languagewithchemistrydescribes is, twomaterials conduct the carbonnanospheroid that Pikeyreorganizationobtains.”
“更多的信息我没法提供给你,我只能告诉你,这是一个由富勒烯材料和碳纳米管材料经过扑拓变换得到的图形。用化学上的语言进行描述便是,两种材料进行π键重组得到的碳纳米球体。”Surrottknit the browsslightly, stares atthismodelto thinka moment later, opened the mouthto ask: „Sounds like a goodtopic, but how should wefusein the fullerencematerialand a carbon nanotubetogether?”
萨罗特微微皱眉,盯着这模型思索了片刻之后,开口问道:“听起来似乎是个不错的课题,但我们该如何将富勒烯材料和一个碳纳米管融合在一起?”Actuallywhathemostwantsto ask, thisgadgetdid is also useful, but the expression on Lu Zhoufacedid not planandhimobviously explained that thereforehealsosuppressedthese words at heart.
其实他最想问的是,这玩意儿做出来了又有什么用,但陆舟脸上的表情明显不打算和他解释,所以他也就把这句话憋在了心里。Lu Zhouwithlooking at the mental handicapsamelooklooked athisoneeyes: „Thisissueaskedwell, ifIknow how shouldsynthesizethisgadget, but alsoneededyouto do?”陆舟用看智障一样的眼神看了他一眼:“这个问题问得好,如果我知道该怎么合成这玩意儿,还需要你干什么?”Surrottsmilesembarrasedly, realizedoneselfasked an idle talk.
萨罗特讪讪笑了笑,也意识到自己问了句废话。Has not managedhim, Lu Zhoucontinues saying: Person who „several days laterwill haveStarry Sky Technologycomesto contactwithyou, Iandyouwill relatethrough the mailas for the matter in research. Moreover, every monthIcanperiodic inspectionyourhereresearchprogress.”
没有理他,陆舟继续说道:“过几天会有星空科技的人过来和你接触,至于研究方面的事情我会通过邮件和你联系。另外,每个月我会定期检查你这里的研究进度。”„Moreover, for these daysIinBerkeleyBranch school in University of California, ifyou have whatissue, telephonesorcomesto look forme. Whatquestionalsohas?”
“另外,这几天我会在加州大学的伯克利分校,如果你还有什么问题,打电话或者过来找我都可以。还有什么疑问吗?”Surrottshakes the headimmediately: „Did not have.”
萨罗特立刻摇头:“没有了。”Lu Zhounods.陆舟点了点头。Now the contractsigned, the thing of this/shouldconfessionalsoconfessedto be clear, continuedto stay here not to need.
现在合同签完了,该交代的东西也交代清楚了,继续留在这里也没有必要。
The issue of research fund, will comeandProfessorSurrottbyStarry Sky Technologythat sidecontacts, the title of experimentwill startat the latestnext month.
研究经费的问题,会由星空科技那边来和萨罗特教授接触,最晚下个月实验项目就会启动。Beaton the data the computer, Lu Zhoureceived the USBpreparationto leave.
将数据拷到了电脑上,陆舟收起了u盘准备离开。Howeverat this moment, Surrottthought ofanythingsuddenly, opens the mouthto say.
然而就在这时,萨罗特忽然想到了什么,开口道。„Right, nowthisresearch instituteisyour , to continue to be ablewithmynameto be not quite appropriate? I mean, orchanges nameto call the Lu Zhouresearch institute?”
“对了,现在这个研究所已经是你的了,继续用我的名字会不会不太合适?我的意思是,要不就改名叫陆舟研究所?”
