In this less than two weeks of vacation, they can the enjoyment life well, not need to ponder the matter in studies. 随着春假的到来,被繁重的学业压榨了一个学期的学生们,终于迎来了短暂的解放。在这个不到两周的假期里,他们可以好好的享受人生,无需思考学业上的事情。 Even the busy Princeton campus, still caught many relaxed colors. 即使是繁忙的普林斯顿校园,也染上了许多轻松的色彩。 „I plan to go to Fort Lauderdale, if you have free time, can go with me.” A dining area of Institute for Advanced Study building, sits together Senior Brother Luo who eats meal, offered the invitation to Lu Zhou. “我打算去劳德代尔堡,如果你有空的话,可以和我一起去。”普林斯顿高等研究院一楼的用餐区,坐在一起吃饭的罗师兄,向陆舟提出了邀请。 The sea and sand beach usually are the first choice that the spring vacation moves, compares Hawaii, the traveling price of Fort Lauderdale is relatively popular. Since 1934, there then becomes the American University spring vacation sacred place. At this time every year there is fully occupied, afterward was not only the university student in US, overseas visitors of coming with admiration. 大海和沙滩通常是春假活动的首选,相比起夏威夷,劳德代尔堡的旅游价格相对亲民。从1934年开始,那里便成为了美国大学春假的圣地。每年这个时候那里都是人满为患,以至于后来不仅仅是美国的大学生,还有慕名而来的海外游客。 However, regarding Lu Zhou, this is actually a strange geographic name. 不过,对于陆舟来说,这却是一个陌生的地名。 Lu Zhou hesitated the moment, asked: „Where is Fort Lauderdale?” 陆舟迟疑了片刻,问道:“劳德代尔堡是哪里？” „In Florida, which the Venice of North America...... your Fort Lauderdale in doesn't know? How do you come in this year?” Luo Wenxuan looks at Lu Zhou unbelievable. “在佛罗里达州,北美的威尼斯……你连劳德代尔堡在哪都不知道？你这一年是怎么过来的？”罗文轩难以置信地看着陆舟。 Lu Zhou made a helpless expression. 陆舟做了个无奈的表情。 „My doctorate read-only several months, without let off with enough time spring vacation finished.” “我的博士学位只读了几个月,没来得及放过春假就结束了。” Atmosphere instantaneously somewhat subtle awkwardness. 气氛瞬间有些微妙的尴尬。 Luo Wenxuan coughed lightly the sound: „Can we not propose the doctorate the matter?” 罗文轩轻咳了声:“咱们能不提博士学位的事情吗？” Lu Zhou: „...... Eh, sorry.” 陆舟:“……额,抱歉。” He almost forgot, when he attended the undergraduate course, Senior Brother Luo then studied for the doctorate in Edward Witten there. Now his doctorate attains, Senior Brother Luo does not have the smooth graduation...... 他差点忘了,在他读本科的时候,罗师兄便在爱德华・威滕那里攻读博士学位。现在他博士学位都拿到了,罗师兄还是没有顺利毕业…… Mentioned the so sad matter in this happy day, was not quite truly good. 在这个快乐的日子提起如此悲伤的事情,确实不太好。 However, Senior Brother Luo's psychological bearing capacity is quite powerful, after all in Institute for Advanced Study this place that brain that is gathering the world's most talent, the light is enough talent, but does not have powerful innermost feelings unable to treat. 不过,罗师兄的心理承受能力还是相当强大的,毕竟在普林斯顿高等研究院这个聚集着世界最天才的大脑的地方,光是足够天才而没有一颗强大的内心也是待不下去的。 After all between talent and talent, has the disparity. 毕竟天才与天才之间,也是存在差距的。 Adjusted the mood quickly, Senior Brother Luo continued to return to the previous topic, continued the spring vacation topic to speak with confidence. 很快调整了心情,罗师兄继续回到了先前的话题上,继续就着春假的话题侃侃而谈道。 „But spring vacation is colorful. Met good opportunity, said that you do plan alone for a lifetime? If you do not know how should pursue the attractive miss, I can the skill that teaches you to say something to smooth things over, this is actually very easy.” “春假可是艳.遇的好机会,还是说你打算单身一辈子？如果你不知道该如何追漂亮姑娘的话,我可以教你搭讪的技巧,这其实很容易。” Some Lu Zhou accidents/surprises looked at his one eyes, but emphasis actually not in skill of saying something to smooth things over, but yes...... 陆舟有些意外地看了他一眼,不过关注点却不是在搭讪的技巧上,而是…… „Did you plan to change the girlfriend?” “你打算换女朋友了？” „In fact, has traded.” Luo Wenxuan coughed gently the sound, the expression seems like some not to discuss that this topic, „this inside reason is a little complex, do not ask.” “事实上,已经换了。”罗文轩轻轻咳嗽了声,表情像是有些不太想讨论这个话题,“这里面的原因有点复杂,你就别问了。” Lu Zhou: „......” 陆舟:“……” If he did not remember incorrectly, probably February time, at celebrating Adams chemistry prize party, this fellow also leads the girlfriend to shake before oneself. 如果他没记错的话,大概二月份的时候,在庆祝亚当斯化学奖的派对上,这家伙还带着女朋友在自己面前晃悠。 This is also less than two months, returned single. 这还不到两个月,就又回归单身了。 This trades the speed of girlfriend, sends the speed of paper to be quicker than him simply. 这换女朋友的速度,简直比他发论文的速度还快。 „Here rhythm of life is this, you must study the adaptation,” notices the Lu Zhou speechless expression, Luo Wenxuan answers, „, if you contact the circle of foreign student frequently, you will discover that this is actually very ordinary matter.” “这里的生活节奏就是这样,你总得学着适应,”注意到陆舟无语的表情,罗文轩解释道,“如果你经常接触留学生的圈子,你就会发现这其实是很普通的事情。” „This is the issue is,” exchanged one slightly to fold the packing paper of sandwich, loses on the dinner plate, Lu Zhou sighed saying that „I because often had the moral integrity to feel and you are incompatible.” “这就是问题所在,”将三明治的包装纸折成了一小叠,丢在了餐盘上,陆舟叹了口气说道,“我时常因为自己太有节操而感觉和你们格格不入。” One hear of this saying, Luo Wenxuan is not glad immediately. 一听这话,罗文轩顿时不乐意了。 „Your this saying said that I do not have the moral integrity to be the same probably.” “你这话说的,好像我就没节操一样。” Lu Zhou: „Not?” 陆舟:“难道不是吗？” Luo Wenxuan: „......” 罗文轩:“……” ...... …… Actually, Lu Zhou regarding the words that Senior Brother Luo spoke, was somewhat curious. 其实,陆舟对于罗师兄说的话,还是有些好奇的。 Is such that spring vacation Fort Lauderdale really and in the movie shoots, brimming with the liquor air/Qi that the youth aura and irritates the nose? 春假中的劳德代尔堡是不是真的和电影中拍的那样,洋溢着青春的气息和刺鼻的酒气？ If no other matter, he did not mind takes a look actually with Senior Brother Luo. 如果没有别的事情的话,他倒是不介意和罗师兄一起去瞧瞧。 However, the premise is without busy...... 然而,前提是在不忙的情况下…… The first Saturday of April, Lu Zhou also had one week of small long vacation to own students. After three months of intense study, the time that they also require to rest, adjusts own condition. 四月份的第一个星期六,陆舟给自己的学生们也放了一周的小长假。经过了三个多月的紧张学习,他们也需要休息的时间,去调整自己的状态。 However regarding Lu Zhou, does not have this leisure. 不过对于陆舟自己而言,却是没有这个闲暇。 In the first day that the spring vacation starts, he then takes plane, went to San Francisco situated in West coast, participates organic chemistry seminar that the American Chemical Society holds. 就在春假开始的第一天,他便坐上了飞机,前往了位于西海岸的旧金山,参加美国化学学会召开的有机化学专题研讨会。 In there, he will carry off is his glory, as well as stays behind one probably about 60 minutes speech. 在那里,他将带走属于他的荣耀,以及留下一段大概60分钟左右的演讲。 Although the scale of this conference does not meet MRS conference the scale to be huge like the top of material science, but the influence is not inferior, is one of the organic synthesis domain top conferences. 这场会议的规模虽然不像材料学界的顶会m会议那样规模庞大,但影响力却丝毫不逊色,也是属于有机合成领域的顶级会议之一。 After all the influence of American Chemical Society, was really greatly too will be many compared with material science. The former age compared with the latter big century, has the unignorable influence on the industrial even political circle incessantly. 毕竟美国化学学会的影响力,比起材料学会实在是大太多了。前者不止年龄比后者大一个世纪,对工业界甚至政界都有着不可忽视的影响力。 After several hours of flight, the airplane lands on the airport in San Francisco. 经过数个小时的飞行,飞机降落在旧金山的机场。 Meets at the airport his is Surrott, Cornell University professor who this once went down in the world, now seemingly mental outlook face glowing with health. 在机场接他的是萨罗特,这位曾经落魄的康奈尔大学教授,如今看上去精神面貌容光焕发。 An ironing straight suit, combed the restoring the old head of tender, the beard on face is also blowing cleanly, the vigor did not know several months ago good many. 一身熨的笔挺的西装,梳着复古油头,脸上的胡子也刮得干净了许多,精气神不知道比几个月前好了多少。 Has saying that the paper is the life of scholar. 不得不说,论文就是学者的生命。 A " Science " component, although is not enough completely to change the present situation, but many also made him recall in the position of Cornell University slightly some. 一篇《科学》的份量,虽然不足以彻底改变现状,但多少也让他在康奈尔大学的地位稍微挽回了些许。 If sells out the research institute at first time, in his heart some hesitations, often will also ask back are oneself „really worth?” This issue. 如果说最初卖掉研究所的时候,他的心中还有一些踟躇,时常会反问自己“真的值得吗？”这个问题。 But now, he will not have suspected, choice that oneself made initially how wise. 而现在,他已经根本不会怀疑,自己当初做的选择是多么的明智。 „Welcome, my dear friend, welcome to San Francisco!” Smiled to welcome, Surrott was away from then extended the right hand far away, „congratulated you, Roger Adams rewarded, you entered one step to Stockholm.” “欢迎,我亲爱的朋友,欢迎来到旧金山！”满脸笑容地迎了上来,萨罗特隔着老远便伸出了右手,“恭喜你,罗杰・亚当斯奖,你离斯德哥尔摩又进了一步。” Shakes hand with Surrott, Lu Zhou cracks a joke saying: „Stockholm I had gone to one time.” 和萨罗特握了握手,陆舟开玩笑道:“斯德哥尔摩我已经去了一次了。” „That goes again one time, these will be Nobel's palace time!” Surrott smiling face said brightly, „I listen to the professor who knows well to mention this matter, appraises the committee to discuss whether should give the modified pdms material nomination.” “那就再去一次,这一次将是诺贝尔的殿堂！”萨罗特笑容灿烂地说道,“我听熟识的教授说起过这件事儿,评奖委员会正在讨论是否应该给改性pdms材料提名。” Lu Zhou smiles has not spoken. 陆舟笑了笑没有说话。 Surrott optimistic same is far-fetched with his scientific intuition, particularly he when quoting others had not said the words does not blush, is really difficult to distinguish the genuine and fake. 萨罗特的乐观和他的科学直觉一样不靠谱,尤其是他在引用别人根本就没说过的话时毫不脸红,实在让人难辨真假。 Moreover, if the Nobel prize has is so good to take, was insufficient to be regarded as the scientific circles the imperial crown. 另外,如果诺贝尔奖有这么好拿的话,也不至于被视作科学界的皇冠了。 If nothing else, father of the Lithium ion battery, in legend „enough good” mister( john B goodenough), arranged more than 30 years of teams, and has not arranged. To depend on lithium negative electrode material technology, takes off this imperial crown at one fell swoop, the difficulty is big. 别的不说,就连锂离子电池之父,传说中的“足够好”先生(john・b・goodenough),都排了三十多年的队,而且还没排到。想靠着锂负极材料这一项技术,一举摘下这枚皇冠,难度还是不小的。 However, Lu Zhou does not worry. 不过,陆舟并不着急。 He is young, the scientific research profession is very long. 他还年轻,科研生涯还很长。 The modified pdms material or the hcs-1 material, or in the present Adams chemistry prize, to him merely are only a start...... 无论是改性pdms材料还是hcs-1材料,亦或者就在眼前的亚当斯化学奖,对他来说都仅仅只是一个开始而已……
