„Naturally, is not only interested,”clears throat, Musklooks atLu Zhou, sinceresaying, „I must thankyou, yourresearch resultshelpedmybusy.”
“当然,不只是感兴趣,”清了清嗓子,马斯克看着陆舟,诚恳的说道,“我必须得感谢你,你的研究成果帮了我一个大忙。”„...... Canhelpyouhappily.”Regarding the Muskenthusiasm, on the Lu Zhoufacehangsis not losing the smile of politenessawkwardly.
“……很高兴能帮到你。”对于马斯克的热情,陆舟脸上挂着尴尬而不失礼貌的微笑。To be honest, regardingthissuddenvisiting, heis somewhat confusednow.
老实说,对于这位的突然拜访,他现在还是有些一头雾水。Even ifownresearch resultspossiblytrulyadded onTeslabusy, but the new energy automobiledoes not make the battery, properly speakingMuskhas not cometo visitownreasonspecially.
即便自己的研究成果可能确实帮上了特斯拉一个大忙,但新能源汽车又不生产电池,按理来说马斯克没有专程过来拜访自己的理由。Possiblyisbecausehas been busy at the patentrecently the matter, regularlysomepeoplecallto inquire whether oneselfintendto sell the patent, bumps intothispasting the person of merchantlabel, his firstresponsepondersattempt of opposite party.
可能是因为最近一直在忙专利的事情,隔三差五就有人打电话询问自己是否有意出售专利,碰到这种贴着商人标签的人,他第一反应就是思考对方的企图。Thisis notwhatvigilance, respondedpurelysubconsciously.
这并非是什么戒心,纯粹是下意识地反应。„It seems liketwoas ifalso many interestingtopicsmustchat, butbesides the thing outside mathematicalandfootball, I am not interestedvery much,”beardgrayVenerableFrancissmilestemperately, „, twochattedslowly, IfirstI must say good bye now.”
“看来两位似乎还有很多有趣的话题要聊,不过除了数学和橄榄球之外的东西,我不是很感兴趣,”胡子花白的弗朗西斯老先生温和地笑了笑,“那么,两位慢聊,我就先失陪了。”„Thanks, Ialsowantto chatwithProfessorlandalone.”Musksmileswas saying.
“谢谢,我也想和陆教授单独聊聊。”马斯克微笑着说道。
After Mr.Franciswalks, Musksits downin the Lu Zhouoppositeat will , to continue to saywith the directtone.
弗朗西斯先生走后,马斯克随意地在陆舟的对面坐下,用侃侃的语气继续说道。„...... I, whenPennsylvania Universitystudies the economicshad pondered, the issue that the future of humanwhere, thisworldwill facetrulywill beanything. Finally, Ireach the conclusionam the new energy, the Internet, the space exploration.”
“……我在宾夕法尼亚大学攻读经济学的时候就曾经思考过,人类的未来在哪里,这个世界真正面临的问题是什么。最终,我得到结论是新能源,互联网,空间探索。”Looks atLu Zhouearnestly, Muskcontinues saying: „Iam an engineer, but you are a scholar. Fromyourviewpoint, wheresolvesthesethreetypes of problems the keys?”
认真地看着陆舟,马斯克继续说道:“我是一名工程师,而你是一名学者。以你的观点来看,解决这三样问题的关键在哪里?”Exchangeswiththisfellow, Lu Zhoualwayshasto plantis listening to the feeling that Shinichi Mochizukigives a speech. Two peoplearethattypeto immerse the dreamerprobablyinoneselfuniverse, althoughthisdoes not have nothingwell, buttriesto understand that regardingthesetheirpeople, someare unfriendly.
和这家伙交流,陆舟总有种在听望月新一作报告的感觉。两人大概都属于那种沉浸在自己宇宙中的梦想家,虽说这并没有什么不好,但对于那些试图去了解他们的人来说,就有些不友好了。„The Internetdid not say,”Lu Zhouthinks,spoke thoughtlesslyto reply, „, butothertwo, Ifeltprobablyon the material.”
“互联网不好说,”陆舟想了想,随口答道,“但其他两个,我个人感觉大概在材料上。”Although the new energytechnology and bottleneck of space explorationtechnologyinvolvesmanydivisions/disciplines, cannotinduceonmaterial scienceallissuessimply, what is quite interesting, if the issue of materialhas been solved, the complexissueas ifwill becomesimple.
虽说新能源技术和空间探索技术的瓶颈涉及到很多学科,并不能将所有的问题简单地归纳到材料学上,但比较有意思的是,如果材料的问题得到解决,很多原本复杂的问题似乎都会变得简单起来。Photovoltaic generationornuclear fusionelectricity generation, the lithiumsulfurbatteryor the lithiumspatialbattery, are most difficultto handleare the materialparts.
无论是光伏发电还是核聚变发电,无论是锂硫电池还是锂空电池,最难搞定都是材料部分。Muskhit a soundto refer , the smilesaid: „It seems likewethink that wenttogether, Iandmyengineerteamthink. Iplanned to invest that 10 billionUS dollars, construct a materialdevelopment baseinSilicon Valley. Ifyouare interested, Iwantto inviteyouto be the chief designer of thisresearch agency.”马斯克打了个响指,微笑道:“看来我们想到一块去了,我和我的工程师团队一致这么认为。我打算投资一百亿美元,在硅谷建一个材料研发基地。如果你感兴趣的话,我想聘请你担任这家研究机构的总设计师。”10 billionUS dollars?!
一百亿美元?!Hearsthisnumber, Lu Zhouhas a scare, behindhalf a wordhas not listenedearnestly.
听到这个数字,陆舟被吓了一跳,以至于后面半句都没认真听。In his mind, Teslaoneyear of sales volumedoes not havethisnumber.
在他的印象中,特斯拉一年的销售额都没这个数字吧。„Youridea is truly interesting, I believe that ifhassuchgenerousrich and powerful people, entirematerial sciencewill be overjoyed......, butwith all due respect, Teslawithobtainingso much money?”Lu Zhouremembers before , thenhas heard, the financial situation of Tesla is not good.
“你的想法确实很有意思,我相信如果有这么一位慷慨的富豪,整个材料学界都会喜出望外……但恕我直言,特斯拉拿得出那么多钱吗?”陆舟记得以前便听说过,特斯拉的财务状况并不算良好。Musksaidnaturally,„does not have, butyoucameto have.”马斯克理所当然道,“没有,但你来了就有了。”Lu Zhou: „......”陆舟:“……”Besidesmmp, hisanythingwordsdo not wantto say.
除了一句mmp之外,他什么话也不想讲。
......
……Has toacknowledge, the proposition of Muskregardingresearchers, is truly attractive.
不得不承认,马斯克的提议对于一名研究人员来说,确实很具有吸引力。Changes intoProfessorSurrott, feared that isoneseconddoes not bringhesitant, takesownlithiumspatialbatteryproject, went for shelter.
换成萨罗特教授,怕是一秒都不带犹豫,就拿着自己的锂空电池项目,屁颠屁颠地投奔过去了。HoweverregardingLu Zhou......
不过对于陆舟来说……To be honest, the attractionis not big.
说实话,吸引力不大。„Verysorry, perhapsIhave no wayto help.”
“很抱歉,我恐怕没法帮你这个忙。”Does not seem to think that Lu Zhouwill refusethisattractiveproposition, Muskto knit the browsslightly, triesto convince: „Do youreallyno longerconsider? Icanguarantee, so long asyounod, youwill never worryfor the matter of research spending.”
似乎没有想到陆舟会拒绝这个充满吸引力的提议,马斯克微微皱眉,试图说服道:“你真的不再考虑一下吗?我可以保证,只要你点头,你将永远不会为科研经费的事情发愁。”„Iam a math professor, material scienceam not the domain that Iexcel, youin additionpleasewise,”, Lu Zhoucontinued saying that „. Moreover, even ifyoupledgedto have the research spending of being able to use uptome, myresearchcould not spendso much money temporarily.”
“我是一名数学教授,材料学并非我擅长的领域,你还是另请高明吧,”顿了顿,陆舟继续说道,“而且,就算你向我承诺有用不完的科研经费,我的研究暂时也根本花不了那么多钱。”Althoughalsowantsagainunder the persuasion, butsees the expression on Lu Zhoufaceas ifto have no plan of changeidea, Musk can only sighfinallyreluctantly.
虽然还想再劝说下,但看到陆舟脸上的表情似乎没有任何改变主意的打算,马斯克最终只能无奈地叹了口气。„Good, Imustsay,youmissed an opportunity in changeworld...... naturally, ifyouchanged the mind, canlook formeat any time.”
“好吧,我必须要说,你错过了一个改变世界的机会……当然,如果你改变主意了,可以随时来找我。”Lu Zhousaidimpartially: „Ifwords.”陆舟不置可否地说道:“如果的话。”Left behindownname card, MuskthenandLu Zhouchattedseveral, butappearssomeintereststo lack, notfrom the beginningthatenthusiasm.
留下了自己的名片,马斯克接着和陆舟聊了几句,但显得有些兴趣缺缺,并没有了一开始那份热情。
When has looked at the Crafoord PrizeinterviewLu Zhouthat„mustusemathematicalchangescience”speech, sawhehad saidin the lithiumnegative electrode materialgeneral the wordsbecame the reality...... Muskto thinkLu Zhouandwere a passer-by, butnowseems like notthis.
看过了克拉福德奖采访时陆舟那句“要用数学改变科学”的发言,看到了他在锂负极材料上将说过的话变成了现实……马斯克原本认为陆舟和自己是一路人,但现在看来似乎并不是这样。Continuedembarrassedto chata while, hethenfound an excusesets outto leave, left the stagefromthisparty.
继续尬聊了一会儿,他便借故起身离开,从这晚会中退场了。Withdeparture of Mr.Musk, surroundingspeaceful.
随着马斯克先生的离去,周围安静了下来。Onecup of champagne of Lu Zhou on toowncup, is enjoying the banquetremainingtimeagainbut actually.陆舟给自己的杯子里重新倒上一杯香槟,享受着宴会剩下不多的时间。At this time, hisyoungapprenticeVera, leads a facejoyfulMissHannah, returnedin the banquet hall.
这时候,他的小徒弟薇拉,带着一脸喜悦的汉娜小姐,重新回到了宴会厅内。Excitingexpressionfrom the Hannahface, shewasdoesprobably.
从汉娜脸上兴奋的表情来看,她大概是做出来了。Has guessed correctly the result, butLu Zhoulooks atVera, askedbenignly: „Finallyhow?”
已经猜到了结果,但陆舟还是看着薇拉,和颜悦色地问道:“结果如何?”Veranods, saidlow voice: „According toyourrequest, Iaccording to the teachingstandard of undergraduatestage, gavehimto set a complex variable functionproblem. Usedprobably for a halfhour, shesuccessfullysolved the answer.”
薇拉点了点头,小声说道:“按照您的要求,我按照本科阶段的教学标准,给他出了一道复变函数题。大概用了半小时的时间,她成功解出了答案。”Lu Zhounods, looked that tostoodinherbehindMissHannah.陆舟点了点头,看向了站在她身后的汉娜小姐。„Verygood, thencongratulatesyourMissHannah, youadoptedmyinspection. Givesme a mailbox, tellsme the teacher who youmustreportwhile convenient.”
“很好,那么恭喜你汉娜小姐,你通过了我的考核。给我一个邮箱,顺便把你要报的导师告诉我一下。”To himis the slight effort, this degree ofpromise, hewill certainly not renege on a promise.
对于他来说不过是举手之劳,这种程度的诺言,他当然不会反悔。„Good! Thanks, too thankedyou!”Hannahnodsexcitedly, thatput outprepared the goodshort notepaper and pen.
“好的!谢谢,真的太感谢您了!”汉娜激动地点头,那个拿出了准备好的便签纸和笔。Generally speaking, the letter of recommendationmails toteacherthere that the studentapplied fordirectly, after the student, will not make the studentsee that in the letter of recommendationwroteanything.
一般来说,推荐信是直接寄到学生申请的导师那里,不会经过学生,更不会让学生看到推荐信上都写了些什么。Alsotherefore, in some sense, works as the power of professor is very really bigin the overseas.
也正是因此,从某种意义上来讲,在海外当教授的权力真的很大。Letter of recommendation that the samecandidatewrites, „Ido not recommendand „ mevery much”highlyrecommend ” twowords, althoughin the grammaris only the differences of severalwords, butis actually deciding a future of person.
同一个推荐人写的推荐信,“我不是很推荐”和“我强烈推荐”两句话虽然在语法上只是几个单词的区别,但却决定着一个人的未来。Howevergenerally speaking, mostprofessorsare glad the potentialstudentto recommendtoothersvery much. Becauselooks the student who oneselfrecommendwas trained an outstandingscholar, pleasure one of the asprofessor.
不过一般而言,大多数教授都是很乐意将有潜力的学生推荐给别人的。因为看着自己推荐的学生被培养成一名优秀的学者,也是身为教授的乐趣之一。Looksback that Hannahleaves, Verapinched the skirtswayedgently, forownrousedencouragingin the heart.
看着汉娜离开的背影,薇拉轻轻捏了捏裙摆,在心中为自己鼓了鼓劲。
The deep breath the one breath, shehad the couragefinally, opened the mouth saying: „...... Professor.”
深呼吸了一口气,她终于鼓起勇气,开口道:“……教授。”Sawherto seem likesomewords to say,justmadeLu Zhou of goodmatterto be happy, asksbenignly: „Whatmatter?”
见她似乎有话要说,刚做了一件好事儿的陆舟心情不错,和颜悦色地问道:“什么事?”Opens mouth, Verais preparingto sayanything.
张了张嘴,薇拉正准备说些什么。Howeverat this moment, the music in dance floortransformed the melodysuddenly, played the music of breaking up.
然而就在这时,舞池中的音乐忽然变换了曲调,奏响了散场的乐曲。As the music of breaking upresounds, the people in dance floorleave the stagelongingly.
随着散场的音乐响起,舞池中的人们依依不舍地退场。Obviously, the dance partyhad ended.
显然,舞会已经结束了。
It seems like regrettingmissedanything, thatpair of brightpupilsomewhatlostslightly, lookstoone side.
似乎是在懊悔着错过了什么,那双明亮的眸子略微有些失落,看向了一边。Lowers the head, Verasaidlow voice.
低下头,薇拉小声说道。„No......”
“没什么……”
To askyouto dance a dance......
只是,想请你跳支舞而已……
