Technological Supremacy Chapter 180: The candidate for the president of Star University is determined
?If An Ran waited until Luo Jia's order was issued before starting to act, then he would not be An Ran.
In fact, An Ran not only predicted that Luo Jia would start a university, but also thought that he would win over his junior brother Cao Yuan. After all, materials science is not only the shortcoming of Xingchen Technology, but also the shortcoming of the whole China. Opportunities to recruit talent in this field may be missed.
So after An Ran came to Massachusetts, she took the initiative to get in touch with Cao Yuan.
Cao Yuan tugged on his tie awkwardly, and asked An Ran curiously: "Brother, where are we going to eat today? It's so formal, it's the same as attending an awards ceremony."
Anyone who is familiar with Cao Yuan knows that he is actually a very unprofessional guy who likes to play games. Go up and say a few words.
Generally speaking, in life, Cao Yuan is more like an ordinary young man in his early twenties. No one has ever seen him holding a book and studying hard at night. On the forum, with his outstanding wisdom, he played tricks on his opponents.
But the reason why a genius is a genius is because Cao Yuan's life is different. As long as he puts in 10% of his efforts, he is enough to achieve impressive results that astound the world.
An Ran smiled, "I ordered the Maliavi Restaurant."
Wow~
Sakura Hiraba's eyes lit up, and she cheered, "It's so fun to dine at Mariavi Restaurant on Christmas Eve!"
Cao Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "No wonder you want to wear this outfit. It turns out that you are going to the legendary Maryavi."
They were all very excited, only senior sister Qi Mengzhou curled her lips lightly, assuming that An Ran and her had dinner together, that would be called romance, but An Ran chose to bring a bunch of light bulbs.
"Let's go, let's pick up Principal Rafael." An Ran put on another woolen coat over the suit, and said to everyone.
......
An Ran rented a GM brand luxury business car from the Four Seasons Hotel to pick up Principal Rafael.
Principal Raphael is nearly seventy years old. His wife passed away a few years ago, and the two of them have no children, so he has been living alone and widowed for several years.
In a festival like Christmas, staying at home alone is unavoidably lonely, so after receiving An Ran's call, he only thought for a few seconds before smiling and agreeing to go to Christmas dinner with them.
The car stopped outside Principal Raphael's house, An Ran and the others got out of the car and rang the doorbell.
As expected, since there is no hostess, although Principal Raphael's house is clean, things are very messy. Principal Raphael searched in the drawer for a long time before finding out from a pile of socks. Found my cufflinks.
On the dining table in the living room, there is also a pizza box from a takeaway, which should be his lunch.
The principal doesn’t know how to cook, so he always relies on sandwiches with peanut butter, or fast food such as pizza and burgers. What’s amazing is that with such a simple eating habit, he still gained some weight, probably because Burgers and pizza are too high in calories.
"Let's go!" Principal Rafael said happily, all dressed up.
Surrounded by the students, he left home, locked the door, put the key in the mailbox, and then drove to the famous Maliawi restaurant.
This is a century-old shop that opened in 1875. It specializes in high-quality French cuisine and is one of the most famous time-honored shops in the entire Boston area.
In order to get a reservation at this restaurant on Christmas Eve, An Ran spent a lot of effort and asked her classmates in Massachusetts for help, and owed a big favor.
In short, An Ran carefully prepared this banquet. The waiter in a tuxedo led them to a seat by the window, served aperitifs and a few exquisite French dishes, and then began a luxurious French dinner consisting of seven courses. meal.
Because I ordered expensive white truffles and drank the top red wine of Chateau Margaux, the price of this meal must have cost several thousand dollars.
However, the old headmaster can spend Christmas decently and lively. This amount of money is nothing to Xingchen Technology.
French cuisine is known for being long and cumbersome. It took more than two hours to serve all seven dishes.
During the meeting, An Ran did not mention the matter of Xingchen University, mainly talking about the current development of Xingchen Technology and the company's longer-term plans.
And these are also what Principal Raphael cares most about. He is an electrical expert. It just so happens that the company's hardware department is focusing on the electrical field recently, so there seems to be endless topics between them.
An Ran talked about the company's progress in the research of high-power energy waves, the solid electrolyte solution under development, and the efficiency of the actual operation of the supercapacitor energy storage center after it was completed. The more I heard it, the happier I was, and I said that Xingchen Technology is changing the world with its own power.
An Ran not only spoke to Principal Raphael, but actually also to Cao Yuan.
This talented Huaxia who is famous all over the world is about to graduate and get a doctorate degree. If you want to win him to come to Xingchen Technology, now is the right time.
The time is almost up. After a whole night of subtle influence, Cao Yuan and Principal Raphael have fully understood that Star Technology is not only a profitable company, but also has a big dream.
After a toast, An Ran put down her glass and asked Principal Rafael curiously, "Where are you planning to go after you leave Massachusetts?"
Principal Rafael shrugged, "I haven't made up my mind yet, but I will definitely not stay in North America. Since my wife passed away, the factors that attract me to stay have become less and less."
"You also know that I am a Venezuelan, and now my hometown has become a **** on earth. Of course, there are reasons for the ruler's inaction, but North America, my second hometown, is really not friendly to Venezuela. , not only did not help when it was most needed, but imposed sanctions.”
"Huaxia helped Venezuela a little bit. Of course I know that Huaxia helped my hometown out of interest considerations, but at least you didn't make trouble."
Principal Raphael showed tired eyes, looking at the heavy snow falling outside the window.
"Maybe I will go to Europe. Hemingway said that if you are lucky enough to live in Paris when you are young, then Paris will always follow you, because Paris is a moving feast."
"Although I am not young anymore, I still want to leave here and live in Paris for a while. If I ask for a position at the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris, they will agree."
Everyone laughed, this old intellectual is really humble enough.
Although École Normale Supérieure is known as the cradle of mathematicians and enjoys a high reputation in the mathematics field, Raphael is ranked second in the world after all, the principal of MIT. The headmaster will abdicate directly to let the virtuous.
An Ran understood two meanings from Principal Raphael's words. As a Venezuelan immigrant, Principal Rafael did not like the present North America. Second, he was ready to leave.
Luo Jia is right, this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Thinking of this, An Ran finally threw out her trump card.
"Naturally, the École Normale Supérieure is outstanding, but has the principal ever thought about coming to Huaxia to have a look?" An Ran said casually, although he was extremely eager in his heart, he would not show it on the surface.
"Go to Huaxia?" Principal Rafael frowned, as if he hadn't considered this question.
"Yes, we are planning to open a star university, and a candidate for the president is waiting." An Ran said with a smile, "And you are an outstanding expert in electrical fields. If only you could..."
Principal Raphael's expression suddenly became extremely excited. He didn't wait for An Ran to finish speaking, and grabbed An Ran's hand with great force.
"Wait, what are you talking about? Using the Karman vortex street principle to generate electricity? Are you doing such a brutal research?"
Principal Raphael couldn't believe his ears. In this world, there are countless people who want to use the magical Karmen vortex street principle to create new energy.
But they all failed without exception.
Some time ago, a Spanish company announced that it had created a wind turbine based on the Karman vortex street principle, but unfortunately, their efficiency is only acceptable, far from changing the world's energy pattern in one fell swoop.
The reason why Luo Jia dared to do this is because he found key technical points from the knowledge of extraterrestrial civilization. Yes, a huge power generation array.
"Yes, the theoretical construction has been basically completed, and in the spring, we will start the first experiment." An Ran said.
Principal Rafael, Hiraba Sakura, Qi Mengzhou, Cao Yuan, they were all completely shocked.
Everyone is well aware that if the Kamen vortex street power generation is successful, oil and coal will become a thing of the past, and this will be an earth-shaking revolution in the history of world energy.
To put it simply, what Star Technology wants to change is not only energy, but also the rules of the game.
As for An Ran telling the story now, is it considered a leak?
That's not the case.
Xingchen Technology is now a global giant, and has been watched by countless eyes. They are researching fans, and many people actually know about it.
It's just that no one knows what stage the Star Technology has reached.
By spring ~IndoMTL.com~ Star Technology's fan will begin formal testing. This amazing news set off a turbulent wave in the hearts of everyone present.
Especially Principal Rafael, as a master in the electrical field, he dreamed of seeing a new energy source that would change the world, which was too tempting for him, far better than any principal position.
The dinner was still going on, but each had their own concerns. Principal Raphael fell silent and kept thinking in his heart.
When the time came to eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, the long dinner finally came to an end.
Principal Raphael also finished his thinking. He said with a smile: "I think, I can't miss an opportunity to witness history. After all, at my age, this may be the last chance in my life."
An Ran was overjoyed. He stretched out his right hand and shook it with Principal Raphael, "Master Principal, Star Technology welcomes you to join us."
The second year of business, Christmas Eve.
The candidate for the president of Star University is determined.
