International students returning to 90

"Professor Zhuang... Zhuang!" He Qun immediately stood up, took out a pair of chopsticks from the blue-gray bag he was carrying and handed them to Zhuang Cheng, "Damn...clean!"

Zhuang Cheng nodded politely to him, but he didn't take the chopsticks in He Qun's hand. He walked around He Qun, walked to Lin Yi's bedside table, and naturally took out his own chopsticks from the drawer.

"I have."

He Qun scratched his head. Also, Professor Zhuang eats with Researcher Lin every day, so he must have his own chopsticks. He smiled awkwardly and took his own chopsticks back.

Lin Yi saw the bag in Zhuang Cheng's other hand sharply. He sniffed it vigorously with his nose, "Have you bought food too?"

"En." Zhuang Cheng responded and put the food he brought on the table, "Let's eat together."

"Hey, have you found a good restaurant? This boiled shrimp is well-made, but my hand is not convenient, and peeling a shrimp is also in the way."

"Researcher Lin, I'll peel it off for you!" He Qun said immediately.

Lin Yi nodded reservedly, accepting He Qun's service with peace of mind, that's right, unlike when he and Zhuang Cheng were alone, when Zhuang Cheng served him tea and water, he always felt a sense of guilt, wishing he could immediately Well, run down and give the boss some water.

Lin Yi ate one bite after another, and suddenly he ate a shrimp, the shrimp was carefully deveined, yo, the little guy is doing things more and more carefully, he just wanted to raise his head to praise He Qun, when he saw the shrimp peeling Zhuangcheng.

Zhuang Cheng carefully picked out the shrimp string with his ring finger, and then naturally put it into Lin Yi's bowl.

Lin Yi's first reaction was, oh my god!

"Ah...haha, haha, actually I'm recovering well, I can peel the shrimp by myself, hahaha."

After a lunch with a weird atmosphere, He Qun hurriedly went to wash the dishes. There were three people present, an associate professor and a researcher. Who would do the laundry if he didn't?

Zhuang Cheng lowered Lin Yi's bed slowly.

"Lin Yi, you seem to repel me."

"what?"

"Isn't it? You and He Qun don't have such a sense of distance. I thought...we were already friends." This is what Lin Yi once said to Zhuang Cheng, and today Zhuang Cheng returned it intact.

When Zhuang Cheng said the word friend, there was such an indescribable complex meaning in his heart. Lin Yi would be the best and most cherished friend in his life, but he could only be a friend...

"Of course!" If I'm not a friend, why would I risk my life to save you!Lin Yi replied without thinking.

"Even if it's an ordinary friend, if a friend is injured, is there any problem with taking care of him for two days? What's more, you went to the hospital for me. But..." Zhuang Cheng paused and looked at him seriously, "You don't seem to want me to come Take care of you."

Lin Yi blinked his eyes, "Oh, Professor Zhuang Da, are you so serious just to say this?"

"You don't understand." Lin Yi waved his hand.

"Your status in my heart is similar to that of the Bodhisattva in that temple." As if realizing that his expression was wrong, he coughed dryly, "Ahem, let me change the metaphor. Your status in my heart is the same as that of Deng Xiaoping. The old man is almost the same, his image is called a tall and stalwart, you said that if Mr. Deng brought me tea and water..."

Lin Yi himself was too embarrassed to go on.

Zhuang Cheng frowned. He didn't know where Lin Yi respected him from the beginning to the end. This kind of respect has completely surpassed the admiration that a junior in the scientific research field has for his seniors.

He smiled bitterly, should he be happy?

"Maybe you have your own ideas, but I also have my principles. It is a fact that you saved me. I hope to do something to express my gratitude. You said that we are friends, but friends should not be kept in temples." , but should stand by your side."

Lin Yi felt that Zhuang Cheng's tone was similar to that of his political theory teacher in high school.

He was silent for a while, and then said, "Well...you're right." This serious tone worked well for Lin Yi, and he really listened to it.

Indeed, the memory of Professor Zhuang in his previous life was so deep that even if he became friends with Zhuang Cheng in this life, it would still affect his attitude towards Zhuang Cheng from time to time.

Lin Yi scratched his head, "I'm paying attention, but it has to go through a process. Who told you that the image of you always in my heart is too great."

Zhuangcheng...

In the following days, Lin Yi worked hard to overcome his psychological barriers, and accepted Professor Zhuang's whole set of services of taking care of food, drinking and laxity.

Humans are really adaptable creatures. After half a month, Lin Yi was able to ask Zhuang Cheng to peel apples for him without blushing or panting.

What group do you mean?

The Department of Physics of New York University invited Zhuang Cheng to give a lecture. Zhuang Cheng came to New York without an assistant, so he borrowed He Qun from Lin Yi to do some trivial data sorting work needed for the lecture.

Therefore, Zhuang Cheng continued to take care of Lin Yi, and He Qun did the data sorting work without any delay.

Lin Yi is young and has a strong wound recovery ability. In addition, Christopher's technical level is really good. After half a month, the wound has almost recovered.

"Don't touch the water within 48 hours of removing the stitches, and don't do strenuous exercise. The incision is beautiful and the sutures are perfect, and you won't be able to see it after a while." Christopher is obviously very satisfied with his technical level.

"As expected of the first knife in New York, it's really powerful." Lin Yi never felt that there were too many good things to say, and it was the most cost-effective thing to say a few words to make both parties happy.

Sure enough, Christopher was very useful, and rarely said a kind word, "I also wish you and Professor Zhuang well and have a good time."

Although this blessing sounded a little strange, but after careful consideration, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it, so Lin Yi happily accepted it.

"Thank you."

Some people are so busy in the sky, Lin Yi stayed in the hospital for half a month, and the things in the office were already piled up like a mountain.

As soon as he stepped into the office, Angie's George followed him.

George held a fruit basket and a bouquet of flowers, "Congratulations on being discharged from the hospital. Your complexion looks good. You must have fully recovered."

George visited Lin Yi several times when he was in the hospital, and Lin Yi accepted the favor.

"It's almost there. Mr. George goes to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. He should come to me for something."

George smiled wryly, is there anything wrong?George is a rich second generation, a rich second generation who can rely on his family background to make a living, but relies on his talent.

If he is really talented and technically accomplished, it may be passed down as a fad.But if his technical level is not good, but he insists on occupying the pit of the technical director, that is another way of saying it.

What James said to George at the gate of the New Energy Center at that time was not nonsense, he really had no achievements in technology.

Angie is not a family business. There are many people who are watching George's position. His family has worked hard to keep his position as technical director.

And the matter of the superconducting cable made George turn over all of a sudden.

Global Times, New York Daily and other major media around the world reported one after another, and the convening of the energy conference made Entergy the limelight.

The management of Entergy even received a call from the management of American Electric Power. They usually think that they are superior to others. American Electric Power, which looks at people with its chin, tentatively asked the feasibility of American Electric Power to participate in this project with polite words. , the leaders of Anterji are grinning so that their gums are coming out.

and so!

The superconducting cable project must not go wrong!

This is the death order given to George by the Anteji leadership.

If this order cannot be fulfilled, even if you are the son of the heavenly king, please leave me alone. According to George, this is what the senior management of Anteji said to him.

But the problem is, this project really did go wrong.

"Cost Control?"

"That's right, it's mainly the preparation of YBCO superconducting tape." George smiled wryly, "What you have completed in the laboratory is the preparation of a cable's superconducting tape. The equipment is advanced and the degree of refinement is high, so you can cost reduction, but we’ve learned that practical superconducting tape suppliers simply can’t do that.”

"Because of energy consumption and pollution in the production process, these companies are not welcomed by the state governments in the United States. Their annual production capacity is limited, coupled with immature technology, and the products are easy to shrink and deform. The YBCO strip Uncontrollable costs are quite high.”

"In other words, the price fluctuation range of YBCO strips is very large. If we want to purchase YBCO strips from these manufacturers, if Entergy wants to fully cover the risks, the suggested price given by the price department will be thirteen times that of traditional cables. .”

Three times to thirteen times... This difference will make all energy companies spit on Entergy.

In fact, thirteen times the price of traditional cables is not unacceptable to the market, but the problem is that once the energy conference is held, everyone knows the cost price of superconducting cables well.

It's only three times the price, but you still set the price thirteen times the price, and the profit is more than three times the price. Why don't you be so black!Is it necessary for the Anteji family to come to explain that this is not my fault, and the prices of upstream suppliers fluctuate greatly, which is obviously impossible.

As soon as the price is released, Entergy will probably offend global energy companies all over the place.

But in the mall, if you really offend all your peers, you are not far from closing the door.

George didn't understand. It was obviously a good thing, but why it became a mess after getting it.

Because of this matter, he couldn't sleep the whole night. No, Lin Yi just entered the door with his front foot, and he followed him behind.

"The price range of YBCO strips is so big?" Lin Yi frowned slightly.

"Yes, it was also a mistake of our evaluation department. We only asked the other party for the price at that time, but I didn't expect..." George smiled wryly. Who would have thought that the price of a non-scarce raw material product would fluctuate so much.

"It's mainly because of policy..." After entering the 90s, the American people's requirements for the environment have become higher and higher. The state governments of various states have restricted the production capacity of YBCO, which is a serious energy-consuming and polluting enterprise. The qualified rate is unstable, which causes the price to fluctuate.

"Then how about building a factory in another place?" Lin Yi touched his chin and asked.

"Build a factory in another place? This is not something we can decide..."

"No, what do you mean, we build our own factory?" George was stunned. Antegy is an energy company, and the cable factory is self-produced and sold, which is not surprising.

But the chemical plant...

George felt that the day lily would probably be cold by the time the group of old antiques on the board of directors came to the conclusion of the discussion.

"Mr. George, you misunderstood, you are 'we' but 'I'." Lin Yi pointed to himself.

The cooperation between the cable factory project and Entergy is the foundation of valuing the cable factory. This chemical plant is different, and Entergy does not have a chemical plant. Why should he give them a share of the pie.

"The policy does not allow it, and the technology level is not mature. The life of those chemical factories is not easy. Is there any manufacturer who wants to make a move? Can Mr. George help me find out?"
