Chapter 390 The Last Day
In the office.
Ning Xiangtian stood by the window holding a cup of coffee, looking down from a high vantage point at the Imperial Capital before him, don’t know what he was thinking.
"Knock knock——"
"Co in."
Liang Chenglei pushed the door open and entered. After arranging the list Ning Xiangtian had sent him, he rushed over imdiately without stopping.
Seeing Liang Chenglei, a trace of surprise flashed in Ning Xiangtian’s eyes, but he concealed it well, said exceptionally politely: "Professor Liang, what wind blew you here today? Actually blew you, the Vice President of the Academy of Science and Technology, over?"
Liang Chenglei waved his hand, said: "Mr. Ning, no need for pleasantries, it’s not like this is our first interaction."
He took out the list from his jacket pocket, waved it, got straight to the point: "Coming today, mainly wanted to ask Mr. Ning what you are purchasing these instrunts on the list for?"
"As far as I know, isn’t your esteed company currently preparing to enter the lithography machine field? Why suddenly purchase instrunts needed for the superconductivity field?"
"Could it be..."
Speaking to here, Liang Chenglei’s eyes slightly narrowed, guessed: "Your esteed company also wants to enter the superconductivity field?"
Hearing this, Ning Xiangtian shook his head, turned and walked to the sofa to sit down, pointed at the opposite seat, "Professor Liang, sit down and chat."
Liang Chenglei wasn’t polite either, imdiately sat down.
Ning Xiangtian poured Liang Chenglei a glass of water, didn’t directly answer this question, pondered and said: "Professor Liang, do you think conquering superconductivity is very difficult?"?
"More than just high?"
Liang Chenglei said straightforwardly: "Based on the current exploration situation in the superconductivity field, at least within the next twenty years, no country can conquer superconductivity."
The corner of Ning Xiangtian’s mouth twitched, muttered in a low voice: "Looks like these two hundred million are going down the drain, a losing business deal!"
"Mr. Ning, what are you saying?"
"Nothing."
Regarding Liang Chenglei’s words, Ning Xiangtian fundantally wouldn’t doubt them. Liang Chenglei was not only the Vice President of the Academy of Science and Technology, but also hailed as the leader in Xia Country’s science and technology field. In so respects, Liang Chenglei’s status was even higher than his, the richest man.
Ning Xiangtian sighed lightly, said: "My company is not preparing to enter the superconductivity field. The early-stage investnt in the lithography machine strategy has already made suffer greatly . Let alone the even more illusory superconductivity. Such a big cake, I can’t eat it."
"Then these instrunts are?"
Seeing Liang Chenglei’s face full of doubt, Ning Xiangtian gave a dry cough, "Actually, it’s like this. A junior is very interested in superconductivity, so..."
This ti, Liang Chenglei’s face was full of astonishnt, his expression extrely brilliant.
What?
"Mr. Ning, you’re not joking with , are you?"
Liang Chenglei placed the list on the coffee table, "The value of the instrunts on this list is almost close to two hundred million, just for a junior to do research?"
Does Ning Xiangtian have money?
Undoubtedly!
But in Liang Chenglei’s cognition, even if one has money, it’s not spent like this!
"Cough cough——"
Ning Xiangtian nodded rather helplessly, his expression more or less carrying so embarrassnt.
Liang Chenglei’s brows furrowed high, asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Ning, how old is that junior of yours?"
"Eighteen, just finished the college entrance exam."
"..."
Liang Chenglei felt a stuffiness in his chest.
Could it be, this is what children from rich families are like?
Good heavens ( internet slang for OMG)!
Even research projects at the Academy of Science and Technology rarely require so much funding.
But...
Comparing people to people really can anger one to death!
Seeing Liang Chenglei silent, Ning Xiangtian smiled wryly and spoke, "Professor Liang, you also said superconductivity fundantally cannot be conquered. When that junior gives up, I will donate these instrunts to the Academy of Science and Technology free of charge."
"Free of charge is not necessary!"
Liang Chenglei shook his head in refusal, said in a deep voice: "Coincidentally, the Academy of Science and Technology’s superconductivity instrunts need replacing. At that ti, let’s purchase them at an eighty percent discount. This way, Mr. Ning’s losses won’t be too much, how about it?"
"Fifty percent!"
Ning Xiangtian made the decision.
Liang Chenglei hesitated for a mont, slowly nodded.
...
"Slowly, slowly."
Ye Fan directed the workers to load the instrunts, busy as a bee.
Busied about until past four in the afternoon, all instrunts were completely installed. After debugging by professional personnel, they were ready for use.
In the bedroom.
Ning Xi sat at the computer desk, her fair hand propping up her chin, playing Go on an online platform.
When the noisy sounds outside disappeared, she directly chose to surrender, stood up and left the room.
Arriving on the first floor, seeing Ye Fan leaning over on an instrunt, busy working, his face covered in dust, it made her laugh.
Hearing the laughter, Ye Fan stopped the action in his hand. Seeing Ning Xi at the top of the stairs, he couldn’t help but reveal a smile, "Xiao Xi, was it particularly noisy?"
"It’s okay."
Ning Xi’s delicate head lightly shook, lightly walked to Ye Fan’s side, looked at these instrunts before her, spoke softly: "Gege, have all the instrunts you need arrived?"
"All arrived!"
Ye Fan’s expression was quite invigorated, "Originally, thought it would take at least a week, never expected it was done in just two days. Uncle’s connections are truly formidable!"
A smile appeared on Ning Xi’s lips, her small hand gently wiped Ye Fan’s face, "Gege, I think you better go wash your face, your current appearance is too funny."
"Is it?"
A mischievous smile lifted the corners of Ye Fan’s mouth. His hands suddenly hugged Ning Xi’s head, his dust-covered face rubbed against her fair skin.
In no ti, the stunningly beautiful young girl turned into a little dirty-faced cat .
Looking at his own work, Ye Fan smiled triumphantly, "Now we’re the sa."
"Aiya, what are you doing?"
Pushing Ye Fan away, Ning Xi reproached coquettishly, hurriedly covered her face and turned to run upstairs.
Ye Fan’s laughter sounded.
...
The following days, for Ye Fan, were incomparably fulfilling.
But for Ning Xi, they were very boring.
Every day, after eating and sleeping, it was playing Go, playing Go, and then more Go.
Regarding the research on superconductivity, she fundantally couldn’t get involved, even, didn’t have the qualification to be a spectator.
Because...
Couldn’t understand!!!
However, fortunately, although Ye Fan was engrossed in research, he didn’t leave Ning Xi aside. Every evening at eight o’clock sharp, he would end the experint, then sneak into Ning Xi’s room, staying until around midnight before leaving.
Of course, during this period, taking advantage was naturally unavoidable.
However, on this matter, Ye Fan had a good sense of propriety.
Their relationship also advanced by leaps and bounds through his repeated taking advantage.
Such days continued for more than ten days, until the ti reached the last day of the system’s stipulated deadline.
This day, Ye Fan got up before six. In a jiffy, he made breakfast, wrote a note and placed it on the dining table. Without even eating, he went to the first floor.
Arriving before the material particle arrangent device, Ye Fan’s expression was incomparably solemn.
If superconductivity couldn’t be conquered before midnight tonight, then it would an this S-level mission failed.
"System, are you there?"
System: "What is it?"
Ye Fan asked in his mind: "Right now, what is the success rate of conquering superconductivity?"
Having worked so hard for so long, the success rate should more or less increase a bit, right?
