It had been a week since Lu Zhou left Germany. October ca and so did the cold weather.
Lu Zhou sneezed and put on his favorite trench coat.
Lu Zhou sat in his study room chair. He was drinking coffee while reading the newspaper from across the ocean.
He opened the first page and read the large headline.
[The Application of Computer Science In Cutting-Edge Research and The Trend Of Future Academia Developnt.]
Everyone Daily used an entire page to publish his letter content.
Of course, the newspaper simplified the content of the letter and explained how supercomputers worked.
Lu Zhou read the entire article and couldn’t help but smirk.
However, he was a little worried as well.
Although he was optimistic about supercomputers, he wondered if he had over-promoted it...
After all, scientific research funding was limited.
Although computational chemistry had good prospects, it wasn’t necessary. Many laboratories were able to produce results without computational chemistry.
Hopefully, the policymakers realize this.
Lu Zhou suddenly felt like it would be better if he comnted less on subjects like this.
Even with the help of the system, he couldn’t guarantee that he was correct. Scientific research was a process of trial and error. In fact, the number of errors he had made far exceeded the number of success.
However, all of the published articles were about his success.
Lu Zhou shook his head and put the newspaper away as he said, “I guess I have to be more cautious, a mistake might co to bite in the future.”
He took his empty coffee cup into the kitchen. When he returned, his phone suddenly rang.
It was from an international caller. However, it wasn’t from Jin Ling University, it was from Yang Xu.
Lu Zhou answered the call.
“Did you receive the package?”
“I did.”
“How does it feel to be on Everyone Daily?”
Lu Zhou smiled as he replied, “It feels okay.”
It wasn’t his first ti on Everyone Daily.
He had won multiple international awards, so this was nothing special.
Lu Zhou said, “If you didn’t call , I would’ve called you. Speaking of which, how is the construction going at the computational materials research institute building?”
“The foundation has been laid. I’ve been there a couple of tis but I’m not sure. Aren’t you the CEO of Star Sky Technology? Can’t you just ask your manager?”
Star Sky Technology had opened a branch in Shanghai, and Lu Zhou had received the construction report, but he was still worried.
“The report is only on paper, it’s not as good as seeing it in person. Rember to take a few photos when you go there next ti.”
Yang Xu smiled as he said, “It’s just a big empty construction site with dust everywhere. It’ll take two to three years just for the dust to settle.”
Lu Zhou replied, “Two to three years is too long, I’ll move in a few months after it’s built.”
Yang Xu smiled. “The chemistry departnt said we can stay here for as long as we want.”
“No, no,” Lu Zhou smiled and said, “we’re only borrowing it for now, we still have to move out. We’re still a private research institute while they’re a public research institute. It’s not good to mix the two together.”
It was fine staying there for a while, but people would start asking questions if they stayed there for too long.
Like who owned the building?
Could the state transfer assets to private organizations?
There were a series of complicated questions.
Lu Zhou already bought the new building. Anyway, he wasn’t lacking money, so he didn’t have to borrow anyone’s building.
“Okay, you’re right,” Yang Xu said. He suddenly slapped his head and said, “I nearly forgot, do you have any new research plans this year?”
Lu Zhou said, “Not right now, but I will tell you if I do. My suggestion is that you should find so interesting research projects to do.”
Researchers would get distracted if they didn’t do experints for a long ti.
They didn’t have a research plan themselves, so it was a good idea for them to cooperate with other research companies. This way, they could gain experience and might even generate so inco.
Many companies would love to cooperate with the Jinling Institute of Computational Materials.
“Okay, I’ll take note,” Yang Xu said. As he twisted the pen around his fingers, he asked, “Speaking of which, what research have you been up to? Theoretical chemistry again?”
“?” Lu Zhou smiled and said, “Not really, the Theoretical Model of Electrochemical Interface Structure is already done, and I’m not interested in chemistry anymore.”
Yang Xu said, “So you’re doing nothing?”
Lu Zhou said, “Nope, I’m been studying the Navier-Stokes equations recently.”
Yang Xu’s pen flew out of his hand.
The pen flew onto the wall.
Yang Xu was stunned.
The f*ck?
Navier-Stokes equations?!
Although he wasn’t familiar with mathematics, he still knew of the Millennium Prize Problems.
Lu Zhou didn’t hear a response.
“... Is there a problem?”
“F*ck, you’re insane! NS equations!” Yang Xu sat up from his chair and said, “You’re finally taking on the Millennium Prize Problems?”
What do you an finally?
Also, what does this have to do with Millennium Prize Problems?
Lu Zhou coughed and explained.
“The Millennium Prize Problem is about the smoothness and existence of the NS equations, I’m studying a specific application of the NS equations, on plasma...”
Lu Zhou suddenly rembered sothing.
“Oh yeah, if you’re looking for a collaborative research project, my suggestion is superconducting materials.”
“Superconducting materials?” Yang Xu asked. He then pointed out by saying, “But we’re in the carbon nanomaterials field, we don’t have any experience with tals...”
“I’m not asking you to change directions, we’re still doing carbon nanomaterials.”
Lu Zhou paused for a second before he continued, “It’s just my opinion, but I think we don’t have to find superconducting materials that are tals. Maybe we can find Cooper pairs in the π bonds.”
