"What? Someone is going to donate $5 billion to our school? " The president of Jiangnan University almost jumped up when he heard the news. Even the eyes of several old professors who were chatting with him shone hot light.
Every year, the state allocates a large amount of research funds to each school. Jiangnan University is regarded as the top comprehensive university in China, and the annual scientific research funds are less than 5 billion. This donation is almost the scientific research funds of the whole school for more than a year!
What is the most important thing for a school? It's a scientific research achievement! A clever woman can't make bricks without rice. Scientific research funds are the lifeblood of scientific research. To put it mildly, scientific research is actually a matter of burning money. Without money, even a group of academicians can't fart together.
Those old professors are old. They have long passed the time to think about making a fortune, and the money spent by the school to hire them is also an unimaginable figure, but their pursuit of scientific research is their only obsession in the next few days.
Although 5 billion sounds like a lot, there are so many schools, colleges and research groups in the whole school. On average, there are not many. For scientific research funds, many professors go everywhere to talk about cooperation with enterprises in order to spend more money on scientific research.
Suddenly I heard that someone wanted to donate $5 billion to the school, and all the professors cheered up.
"OK, I'll be in the office. Come first and let's discuss it!" This is a big event. President Shen was discussing with these professors about the head's coming to the school to guide the work in the afternoon, which can be discussed together with the allocation of funds.
"Lao Shen? Did we hear you right? Someone wants to donate 5 billion to our school for scientific research? " An old man who had lost several teeth smiled brightly, but his research group had several instruments waiting to be arranged.
"Yes, you heard me right!" Principal Shen smiled.
"Which famous alumni is it? There are too many students who graduate from our school to start a business, but not many people can come up with five billion? " Another professor said.
"He's a student, but he hasn't graduated yet!" President Shen said, "I heard Lao Qi say that the chief came here today not for investigation and guidance, but to meet this student. It seems that he has a major academic achievement to report to the state!"
"Major academic achievements? Is Lao Ba making a breakthrough in their subject? " They instinctively regarded the student as Qi Dong's student. They remember that the achievements of Qi Dong's research group have encountered bottlenecks for many years. It is estimated that this time should be related.
"I don't care about anything else. Headmaster, our research team has reached a very critical time for the research on new battery electrodes. If the results come out this time, I guarantee that the research on batteries in our school will reach the first in domestic universities! You must give me more money! "
"Lao Wu, don't blow it! Who's still doing that now? The future development focus must be the direction of our artificial intelligence! Lao Shen, you promised to grant us a sum of money to buy new equipment two years ago. You can't default this time! "
"Lao Xu, are you going too far? It's true that artificial intelligence has developed very well. Don't think how much those two things cost. We don't know. If you import them from abroad, it will cost at least 1.5 billion. Why do you account for one third of this money alone? Are our other research groups going to live? "
"Yes! It's not easy for everyone to engage in scientific research. We can't treat each other so favorably. I don't agree with Lao Xu's requirements! "
"Lao Ding! Last time your students broke an instrument in our research group, I didn't settle with you. Now you're still coming to deal with me with them? " Professor Xu was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.
"These are two different things!"
What would Fang jueyu look like if he knew that his donation could almost make so many big bulls in academic circles fight.
"Pa!" The door of the headmaster's room was pushed open in a hurry, "you old guys, OK, you start thinking about dividing up before you have the money in place? I tell you, I won the money! None of you can get a dime without my consent! "
Qi Dongfeng angrily walked into the headmaster's office. Just now he was listening to them at the door. You and I asked for money. He was so angry that he almost lifted the table.
"Lao Ba, sit down and drink first. We all know that your face is the greatest!" A professor with the most active mind hurried to give him a cup of tea, "Hey, hey, Lao Ba, we have been friends for so many years. This money is hey, hey..."
"Lao Ba, is your grandson about to graduate? I happen to have a granddaughter, about the same age. I think young people can get to know each other and have dinner at my house next weekend. "
"Lao Du, your granddaughter looks crooked, don't think I don't know," another professor also changed into a smiling face, "Lao Qi, my granddaughter is beautiful. She dances in primary school and has a good figure..."
Qi Dong has a feeling of elation for the first time. Although he is an academician, more than 40 academicians of Jiangnan University all have this title. These old guys usually don't agree with anyone, and even vaguely have a discipline contempt chain. Qi Dong has always despised the middle and lower reaches of the chain.
"You also have time to beg me!" Qi Dong smiled brightly. "Our research group wants 500 million yuan of this money. Do you have any opinion?"
Originally, Qi Dong wanted one billion yuan. Then, with the additional money given by Jue Yu above, it was the research fund of their research group for more than ten years. However, he was not too much because there were too many monks.
"Yes, yes! This money was originally won by your old relative. It's not too much to ask for 10%
"Yes, not too much!"
Who dares to disagree with Qi Dong at this time?
"The allocation of funds will be discussed later. This time I want to tell you something!" Qi Dong said, "the achievement this time is made by the donor, but he is a junior in our school. If there is no problem in the verification, this achievement is likely to be nominated at the Nobel Prize in a few years. You should know what it represents?"
"Nobel Prize?" These two words are the lifelong dream of everyone present.
"But my student doesn't want this to bring him too much trouble, so he hopes that this achievement can be published in the name of the school of biological sciences of our school, so in the next period of time, I need you to help me prepare materials!" In order to put a gold on his face, Qi Dong also specially emphasized "my student".
"This is a major event in our school. We are duty bound!"
"Yes! Lao Ba, you will take the lead this time. We all listen to your arrangement! "
Every old professor clapped his chest. Of course, it's unclear whether it's really for the school or to get more funds.
At this time, Fang jueyu had just finished lunch. Although there was something urgent, they were still a little uneasy when they left.
"I've told sister Xiaoying that if you need anything, just tell her directly. I'll come back with you as soon as I'm busy!"
"All right, all right, you go. What a bitch!" Guo Xinyu's exaggerated performance amused Fang jueyu, but her heart was still warm. She just didn't know whether every man would be like this, and how long could such concern last?
"Then I really go?" Fang jueyu turned back three steps at a time.
"Well! Go! "
"Then I really, really go?"
"Don't be fussy, I beg you..."
