What does Zhang Ran lack most
The principal was confused for a moment, but he immediately realized that of course it was money!
After all, he is the richest man in China, how can he still be short of money
"You mean Zhang Ran donated money to Anderson's laboratory? But isn't it right? Judging by the time, Anderson won the Nobel Prize only after Zhang Ran disappeared, or did he already donate before that?" The principal asked with a frown.
Professor Zheng smiled and said: "No, Zhang Ran has never made a donation, but don't forget who the people who interact with Zhang Ran are. Those consortiums must have donated money, and they are also important donors to Anderson.
This kind of thing is a big deal for us, but for these people, asking Anderson to do it is just a matter of words. After all, this matter is actually just a small matter for Anderson. "
Although the words were messy, the principal understood it immediately.
No matter how famous a scientist is, no matter how awesome a scholar is, he has been fighting for one thing throughout his life.
That’s research funding!
And when there is no national support, or the national support is not strong enough, external support is needed.
All over the world, 90% of laboratories and 90% of scholars rely on donations from outside sources.
Every scholar with some reputation spends most of his time researching his own academic work running for funding.
Some scholars even spend more time running for funding than they do on their own research.
This is a very real problem.
Because in many labs, what they need is unrestricted donations.
This means that you cannot have any requirements for these donations. As long as the donations go into the laboratory, it doesn't matter how you spend them.
Even if someone spends all the money on ice cream, you can't interfere in the slightest.
This also makes donations to some laboratories more difficult.
After all, this is equivalent to giving away money to others for free, and you can't say anything at all, which is really not very friendly.
If you can find a long-term and stable donor, it will naturally be very simple to agree to some personal requests at this time.
The principal quickly figured out the key, but that didn't mean he was relieved, or that he looked down on Professor Zheng.
On the contrary, compared with other things, the issue of funding is actually a problem of the school.
If Professor Zheng could get Zhang Ran's sponsorship, no, a donation, then it would be a better thing for him than getting to know Anderson.
Because the money is given to the school, it is up to the school to decide how to use it. When the time comes...
And this is real money.
"Ahem, what's that, Lao Zheng, I may have been a little too impatient before, so don't take it too seriously. In this case, I will apologize to you." The principal said with a dry cough.
In front of money, you still have to learn to bend down a little.
Professor Zheng looked at the principal's appearance and felt secretly happy in his heart. When could he make the principal bow his head, and at such a moment.
Therefore, Professor Zheng was very grateful to Zhang Ran, and at the same time, he was also a little shocked by Zhang Ran's energy!
Although many things are simple to say, there is no doubt that it is not that easy for people like Anderson to stand up.
But this was Zhang Ran's phone call, which made Professor Zheng feel more and more terrible about Zhang Ran.
"Ahem, that's not necessary. Principal, please don't do this. We are all colleagues who work together. It makes me feel ashamed for you to do this." Although Professor Zheng felt very happy, he also knew that he could not really trust him. big.
After all, the relationship between him and Zhang Ran is not that good. This time he was able to get Zhang Ran to come forward, but it was a blessing to his old friend Qian Zhengkun.
If he really offended the principal, he would not be able to ask Zhang Ran to come forward again.
What's more, he can guess what the principal's intention is. He will not ask Zhang Ran for money for the school. He doesn't have the face yet.
But if Lao Qian opens his mouth, Zhang Ran will definitely not be stingy, right
Thinking of this, Professor Zheng couldn't help but start to envy Qian Zhengkun. Having such a friend is really... people don't know how to envy him.
He knew that Zhang Ran treated Qian Zhengkun really well and had no other thoughts, and Qian Zhengkun had nothing for him to plot.
It was because when Zhang Ran was away, Qian Zhengkun's family took care of Zhang Sicheng's brother and sister, especially Zhang Siyan.
The Qian family was really nice to her.
This kind of affection is kept in my heart and is always expressed through actions.
Needless to say, Qian Li is now almost worth hundreds of millions. As for Qian Zhengkun and his wife, they receive a lot of nutritional supplements, high-end ingredients, etc. every week.
These were obviously arranged by Zhang Ran.
So while being envious, Professor Zheng is also happy for his old friend. It is also Qian Zhengkun's blessing to meet such a person who repays every drop of kindness with a spring of spring!
If we really talk about it, Qian Zhengkun and the others didn't actually do much, but just like that, Zhang Ran wrote down the request, and the reward was more than a hundred times a thousand times!
Thinking of this, Professor Zheng suddenly thought of what Zhang Ran said before, that he could go work in his laboratory.
He didn't have this idea before. It was okay to help, but he had to go to work, so forget it, but now it seems that this is another opportunity for him.
Not much else to say, if I work hard for Zhang Ran, if something happens at home in the future, it will be easier to ask Zhang Ran for help.
You can't ask Qian Zhengkun for help later, right
Even if Zhang Ran didn't have the slightest idea at that time, he himself didn't have such a thick skin, and he didn't want to waste his old friend's affection for Zhang Ran anymore.
From this incident, Professor Zheng also completely felt the value of Zhang Ran's favor.
"Principal, I'm thinking that when this matter is over, I'll just look at retirement. It's only in the past two years anyway, so there's nothing wrong with moving forward, right?" Professor Zheng said.
The principal was stunned. Just now, he was thinking about wooing Professor Zheng more in the future. Why is he suddenly retiring early now
"Old Zheng, our school still needs professors like you. You must not be like this. If you are dissatisfied with anything, you can raise it. We will have a meeting to discuss and decide, and we will definitely not let you suffer." The principal. He said quickly.
In the past, he probably wouldn't have even been polite and agreed directly, but now he is not willing to just let Professor Zheng go.
But Professor Zheng has made up his mind now. He just doesn't want to stay in school anymore. It would be more comfortable to go directly to Zhang Ran's laboratory, and he also has a big backer.
Now he knows how nice it is to have a real supporter.
