Chapter 912

Just as the Hadron Collider Seminar on the moon is going on, two professors are sitting in the canteen on the first floor of the Institute of higher learning in Princeton on the other side of the earth, drinking black tea and chatting while enjoying the dessert of afternoon tea.

The LCD screen on one side of the canteen is open at the moment, with the logo of Columbia TV on the top right corner. In the center of the screen is the report on the international Hadron Collider.

It's been a hot issue since last month.

The international community has been salivating for a long time for the moon, a treasure hanging above the human head. But although some people have announced grand plans, most of them stay on paper, and no one has ever put them into action.

However, China's moon orbit construction committee is an exception.

Since the operation of the Tiangong, the whole world has witnessed how terrifying the speed of China in the field of engineering.

Once those Asians make up their mind to do one thing, it seems that they can't do it.

Now they are going to build a hadron collider on the moon, and let physicists all over the world go to work in their country, or even learn their country's language

From the beginning of this month to now, almost the whole Internet is discussing this matter!

It's not just the Internet, it's the same in reality.

In the past, as long as you are sitting in the coffee shop or teahouse of Princeton campus, you can hear the topic of this matter.

Almost every physicist working in Princeton is excited to discuss the crazy ideas of the Chinese people and the broad prospects behind this super project, and what shocking results will be tested.

Even the impact of the Hadron Collider is not limited to physics, but has been radiated to other fields.

According to Professor Krugman, there is even a famous economic bull who wrote a paper on the impact of the moon hadron collider project on international relations and Global trade pattern.

Although physicists in Princeton can always be heard talking about physics, it is the first time that Professor Krugman has such a profound feeling that physics is affecting his life.

Looking at the pictures on the TV, Professor Angus diton, who also won the Nobel Prize and is a member of the Department of economics at Princeton University, said suddenly.

"Are you sure he will go?"

"To be honest, I'm not sure, but his research is really important for us. I'm going to try it," said Professor Krugman, who sat opposite and shrugged

"I think you're wasting your energy."

Looking at Professor Krugman, who is still not going to give up, Professor Angus shook his head and continued, "those pure mathematicians have a great prejudice in economics, and he is a scholar of the grotendic school, who directly inherits Hardy's idea that mathematics should be pure and noble, and should not be affected by other disciplines. Do you know how hard it is for me to ask deline for a favor? If it doesn't involve mathematical research, it's OK. Once it involves mathematical problems, he will... "

With that, Professor Angus left his mouth and made an impatient expression, then shrugged at Professor Krugman.

“…… That's the look on his face. "

Looking at Professor Angus's strange "grimace", Krugman's mouth twitched for a while, and finally covered up his near laughter with a dry cough.

"I understand what you said, but Professor Lu is different. He won the Nobel Prize in chemistry. His contribution to computational materials is no less than his achievements in mathematics and the theory of strong electric interaction Can you say that he is a pure mathematical researcher? No! At least his mind is open! He's just not interested in economics. "

Professor Angus sighed, raised the cup and took a sip.

"Yes, he is not interested in economics at all. How are you going to arouse his interest?"

Professor Krugman grinned, confident.

"My dear Professor Angus Deaton, have you ever pursued a girl?"

I don't know why he said it, Professor Angus frowned and said.

"Of course, when I was young What's the matter? "

Krugman: "you can't make a person interested in what you say from the beginning. You have to build a friendly relationship with him step by step, and show him the favorable side. He will naturally make the favorable choice for you."

Professor Angus opened his mouth and closed it after a long time.

“…… It sounds interesting, but I think your idea must be defeated. "

"Why?"

"Because Professor Lu doesn't seem to care much about international affairs and doesn't care much about the things you describe. Didn't you notice? Even though his research involves many problems other than mathematics, one thing remains that he is interested in those things that are eligible for his selection. ""If he was really interested in economics, he would have been in politics for a long time. Obviously, he has the ability to do so. It's the tradition of that country to use official positions to attract people from academia, but he never seems to care about what's available. "

He listened patiently to his old friend's advice, but Professor Krugman did not change his mind.

"That's not necessarily the case. Whether we care about international affairs and whether we are willing to participate in international affairs by ourselves are two very different concepts."

They were talking.

In the nearby LCD TV, the picture has been transferred from the host's commentary to the scene of the international lunar Hadron Collider seminar.

On the platform of the auditorium of the ten thousand people's Congress, Lu Zhou was standing there, announcing the opening ceremony with a clear and solemn voice.

Looking at Lu Zhou speaking in front of the TV, Professor Krugman's pupils slightly enlarged.

It was as if he had found a decisive evidence, and he gave the table a little punch with his fist in excitement.

"Look! As I said, he is not a scholar who is indifferent to the secular world! "

"Do you want to make a bet? Angus

Looking at some excited old friends, Professor Angus said stupidly.

"Bet what..."

He rubbed his hands excitedly, Professor Krugman continued.

"I bet he will come to the economic forum in Shanghai, and I can persuade him to join me. Let me think about gambling How about $10? "

Ten dollars?

Angus almost didn't laugh at the number.

Although I don't mind if someone gives me money in vain, he really can't raise the interest of wagering if the stakes are too small.

At least, you need to make the other person feel pain.

"10 dollars is too little for you and me. If you're so sure, you'd better change your chips into ten gold coins and chocolates for Stockholm blue hall dinner."

"Damn, you want to empty my pocket..."

Professor craigman hesitated for a moment, but finally bit his teeth.

"Deal!"
