For some reason, the moment she heard these words, Han Mengqi suddenly felt the urge to bite someone.
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Does it also mean thousands of sets of experiments?"
At this time, he suddenly remembered something and spoke.
Although Lu Zhou had no idea what this guy knew.
Yang Xu: "Just tell me how many months of salary you will get!"
Puffing up her cheeks angrily, Han Mengqi buried her mouth in her scarf gloomily. She didn't say a word the whole way. After putting the sample box into the hands of the senior sister in the laboratory, she walked away without looking back.
Yang Xu: "Just tell me how many months of salary you will get!"
Yang Xu did not continue to say the next words, but the meaning was already very clear.
Most of their funding sources come from various state-funded scientific research funds, rather than enterprises. Under the condition that professors' salaries can already cover their living expenses, they are not particularly keen on converting research results into patents.
Let's just talk about her height. The tone of that question is really irritating!
It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of research results are useless.
Yang Xu: "Just tell me how many months of salary you will get!"
Lu Zhou smiled and asked, "What's the rough idea?"
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou spoke.
At least as far as the United States is concerned, it is definitely not easy for even Nobel Prize-level scholars to apply for this funding from scientific research funds.
Once patent issues are involved, collaborative research is often not so pure.
"What's Professor Herero's opinion?"
If it weren't for being a master...
He almost forgot that his boss was a man who was not short of money.
Lu Zhou was also puzzled by Han Mengqi's change. After hearing Yang Xu's question, he briefly replied: "Students I taught before."
Looking at Yang Xu, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
"Do you know each other?"
She swore that she would...
Let's just talk about her height. The tone of that question is really irritating!
After all, unlike battery materials, superconducting materials have unlimited market application prospects and are irreplaceable. The final result is likely to be that even if you do patent protection, it will be largely equivalent to doing charity...
Including several other researchers in the laboratory, they all listened with their ears pricked up. After all, it was related to the issue of how much money would be paid during the New Year. Everyone was curious.

Puffing up her cheeks angrily, Han Mengqi buried her mouth in her scarf gloomily. She didn't say a word the whole way. After putting the sample box into the hands of the senior sister in the laboratory, she walked away without looking back.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou spoke.
Lu Zhou smiled and asked, "What's the rough idea?"
But without this 99% accumulation, there would be no breakthrough in the last 1%.
Upon hearing this, Yang Xu instantly had an expression of understanding on his face.
"The target of 77K is too conservative. We can just set it at 100K."
"OK, whether it is 77K or 100K, now it involves a problem. If this superconducting material can be realized, this technology has limited industrial application prospects... Regardless of whether anyone is interested in this technology, it will produce patent."
Lu Zhou thought for a while: "There must be seven figures."
Ah, in short, I am very angry!
At least as far as the United States is concerned, it is definitely not easy for even Nobel Prize-level scholars to apply for this funding from scientific research funds.
At this time, he suddenly remembered something and spoke.
Even if 100K superconducting materials are developed, they probably won’t be sold at this price.
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows with interest: "A very imaginative name."
Most of their funding sources come from various state-funded scientific research funds, rather than enterprises. Under the condition that professors' salaries can already cover their living expenses, they are not particularly keen on converting research results into patents.
Puffing up her cheeks angrily, Han Mengqi buried her mouth in her scarf gloomily. She didn't say a word the whole way. After putting the sample box into the hands of the senior sister in the laboratory, she walked away without looking back.
Lu Zhou shook his head: "This is too accurate. I'd better tell you the number. You can guess the exact number yourself."
Yang Xu nodded and said seriously: "I will convey your meaning correctly."
MMP…
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Does it also mean thousands of sets of experiments?"
"What's Professor Herero's opinion?"
"Yes, it is full of imagination, and this research result is as full of imagination as its name," Yang Xu said with a smile, "Compared to metallic superconducting materials such as copper oxide, whose structures are difficult to adjust, In other words, carbon nanomaterials have higher structural plasticity, which means unlimited possibilities."
He glanced blankly at the intern who had left. Yang Xu, who was standing not far away, looked at Lu Zhou with a strange look on his face and asked.
But without this 99% accumulation, there would be no breakthrough in the last 1%.
"I think the price is just not enough. If I am willing to spend 10 million US dollars in scientific research funding, I believe he will reconsider this issue."
"Do you know each other?"
Yang Xu was stunned for a moment.
Lu Zhou thought for a while: "There must be seven figures."
Lu Zhou: "Then 20 million."
Yang Xu did not continue to say the next words, but the meaning was already very clear.
After a pause, Lu Zhou continued: "My bottom line is 20 million US dollars. If his answer is still no, we can only leave them alone and do it ourselves, or find a team that is willing to cooperate... As for negotiation, that's all. please."
Yang Xu said helplessly: "Experiments are necessary at all times."
Lu Zhou was also puzzled by Han Mengqi's change. After hearing Yang Xu's question, he briefly replied: "Students I taught before."
He glanced blankly at the intern who had left. Yang Xu, who was standing not far away, looked at Lu Zhou with a strange look on his face and asked.
It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of research results are useless.
Upon hearing this, Yang Xu instantly had an expression of understanding on his face.
In comparison, the temperature of 1.7K is not excellent, and is even far worse than the Tc=35K of lanthanum barium copper oxide compound. Not to mention those black technologies in the laboratory with Tc>100K.
"... Our next goal is to find an appropriate method to increase the superconducting temperature of graphene materials to 77K. Of course, this is a long-term goal, and it may be difficult to achieve in the short term."
After pondering for a moment, Lu Zhou asked.
Yang Xu: "The experiment was very successful. When two layers of graphene are stacked together, when the rotation angle is close to 1.1° and the temperature reaches 1.7K, they will show unconventional superconductivity. According to the opinions of the research team there, We named this angle the 'magic angle'."
"The target of 77K is too conservative. We can just set it at 100K."
Although Lu Zhou had no idea what this guy knew.
"By the way, speaking of money, I seemed to have said that I would give out a year-end bonus before I came back."
The system has said that it can be done with 100K. It would be a pity not to use this clue.
"Thank you for your hard work this year." Looking at Yang Xu who was stunned there, Lu Zhou smiled and patted his shoulder, "Next year, I'll take care of you too!"
MMP…
It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of research results are useless.

"What's Professor Herero's opinion?"
For some reason, the moment she heard these words, Han Mengqi suddenly felt the urge to bite someone.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense," Lu Zhou coughed slightly and brought the topic back on track, "Tell me how the experiment went?"

Lu Zhou: "Then 20 million."

"You are saying this, you work so hard every day, how can I hack your bonus?" Lu Zhou cleared his throat and said with a smile, "I will go to the Finance Department in a while to explain the bonus matter. I promise that this year Everyone can have a New Year full of surprises.”
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows with interest: "A very imaginative name."
She swore that she would...

Yang Xu: "According to the rumors I heard when I was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT, Professor Herero is a person who is indifferent to fame and wealth. It can be seen from the signatures of his previous papers that he rarely competes with students for experimental results. , and is even willing to train those he believes have potential.”
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Does it also mean thousands of sets of experiments?"

Lu Zhou shook his head: "Whether it's worth it or not, I need this technology and related patents. As for why, I will tell you later. As for now, you don't need to care whether it's worth it. You just need to remember that even if Even if it means losing money, we have to do it.”
In the field of superconductivity, "room temperature" is higher than "high temperature". Because the temperature condition of the latter is 77K (about -196 degrees Celsius), while the temperature condition of the former must reach at least 273K or above.
MMP…
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Does it also mean thousands of sets of experiments?"
Looking at Yang Xu, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
Yang Xu chuckled: "Boss, can you tell me how much my bonus is? Just give me a rough idea."
Lu Zhou smiled and asked, "What's the rough idea?"
Yang Xu: "How many are there?"
In comparison, the temperature of 1.7K is not excellent, and is even far worse than the Tc=35K of lanthanum barium copper oxide compound. Not to mention those black technologies in the laboratory with Tc>100K.

However, if we simply regard a technology as “useless” because it cannot be industrialized, our understanding of science would be too superficial.

Yang Xu nodded and said seriously: "I will convey your meaning correctly."
It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of research results are useless.
His original expectation was three to four months' salary.
Yang Xu: "How many are there?"
Looking at Yang Xu, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
Ah, in short, I am very angry!

Indeed, no scholar would think that the funding is too much, and this ten million US dollars is indeed a figure that cannot be refused.

However, if we simply regard a technology as “useless” because it cannot be industrialized, our understanding of science would be too superficial.
Let's just talk about her height. The tone of that question is really irritating!
After all, unlike battery materials, superconducting materials have unlimited market application prospects and are irreplaceable. The final result is likely to be that even if you do patent protection, it will be largely equivalent to doing charity...
"OK, whether it is 77K or 100K, now it involves a problem. If this superconducting material can be realized, this technology has limited industrial application prospects... Regardless of whether anyone is interested in this technology, it will produce patent."
MMP…
Yang Xu: "According to the rumors I heard when I was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT, Professor Herero is a person who is indifferent to fame and wealth. It can be seen from the signatures of his previous papers that he rarely competes with students for experimental results. , and is even willing to train those he believes have potential.”
Lu Zhou shook his head: "Whether it's worth it or not, I need this technology and related patents. As for why, I will tell you later. As for now, you don't need to care whether it's worth it. You just need to remember that even if Even if it means losing money, we have to do it.”
Yang Xu: "The experiment was very successful. When two layers of graphene are stacked together, when the rotation angle is close to 1.1° and the temperature reaches 1.7K, they will show unconventional superconductivity. According to the opinions of the research team there, We named this angle the 'magic angle'."
Yang Xu did not continue to say the next words, but the meaning was already very clear.
He almost forgot that his boss was a man who was not short of money.
"Do you know each other?"
"OK, whether it is 77K or 100K, now it involves a problem. If this superconducting material can be realized, this technology has limited industrial application prospects... Regardless of whether anyone is interested in this technology, it will produce patent."
As soon as he heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on Yang Xu's face: "Boss, I have finally waited for you to say this. If you don't mention it, I will ask it for everyone."
Yang Xu said helplessly: "Experiments are necessary at all times."
Puffing up her cheeks angrily, Han Mengqi buried her mouth in her scarf gloomily. She didn't say a word the whole way. After putting the sample box into the hands of the senior sister in the laboratory, she walked away without looking back.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense," Lu Zhou coughed slightly and brought the topic back on track, "Tell me how the experiment went?"
Looking at Yang Xu, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
Let's just talk about her height. The tone of that question is really irritating!
After a pause, Lu Zhou continued: "My bottom line is 20 million US dollars. If his answer is still no, we can only leave them alone and do it ourselves, or find a team that is willing to cooperate... As for negotiation, that's all. please."
Yang Xu: "Just tell me how many months of salary you will get!"
Yang Xu was stunned for a moment.
After briefly introducing the experimental results, Yang Xu continued to talk about the next plan.
"Thank you for your hard work this year." Looking at Yang Xu who was stunned there, Lu Zhou smiled and patted his shoulder, "Next year, I'll take care of you too!"
Lu Zhou thought for a while and said.
Yang Xu nodded and said seriously: "I will convey your meaning correctly."
As soon as he heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on Yang Xu's face: "Boss, I have finally waited for you to say this. If you don't mention it, I will ask it for everyone."
After a pause, Lu Zhou continued: "My bottom line is 20 million US dollars. If his answer is still no, we can only leave them alone and do it ourselves, or find a team that is willing to cooperate... As for negotiation, that's all. please."
Ah, in short, I am very angry!
"Okay, stop talking nonsense," Lu Zhou coughed slightly and brought the topic back on track, "Tell me how the experiment went?"
"What's Professor Herero's opinion?"
Yang Xu was stunned when he heard ten million dollars.
Yang Xu: "The experiment was very successful. When two layers of graphene are stacked together, when the rotation angle is close to 1.1° and the temperature reaches 1.7K, they will show unconventional superconductivity. According to the opinions of the research team there, We named this angle the 'magic angle'."
"By the way, speaking of money, I seemed to have said that I would give out a year-end bonus before I came back."
Looking at Yang Xu, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
Seven digits
As soon as he heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on Yang Xu's face: "Boss, I have finally waited for you to say this. If you don't mention it, I will ask it for everyone."
Once patent issues are involved, collaborative research is often not so pure.
Indeed, no scholar would think that the funding is too much, and this ten million US dollars is indeed a figure that cannot be refused.
"What's Professor Herero's opinion?"
Seven digits
seven…
Yang Xu nodded and said seriously: "I will convey your meaning correctly."
At this time, he suddenly remembered something and spoke.
After all, unlike battery materials, superconducting materials have unlimited market application prospects and are irreplaceable. The final result is likely to be that even if you do patent protection, it will be largely equivalent to doing charity...
Yang Xu: "..."
"By the way, speaking of money, I seemed to have said that I would give out a year-end bonus before I came back."

"Thank you for your hard work this year." Looking at Yang Xu who was stunned there, Lu Zhou smiled and patted his shoulder, "Next year, I'll take care of you too!"
After pondering for a moment, Lu Zhou asked.
Yang Xu shrugged: "He will most likely think that this technology should be used equally by everyone."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xu instantly had an expression of understanding on his face.
"I think the price is just not enough. If I am willing to spend 10 million US dollars in scientific research funding, I believe he will reconsider this issue."
As soon as he heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on Yang Xu's face: "Boss, I have finally waited for you to say this. If you don't mention it, I will ask it for everyone."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense," Lu Zhou coughed slightly and brought the topic back on track, "Tell me how the experiment went?"

"Do you know each other?"
At this time, he suddenly remembered something and spoke.
"... Our next goal is to find an appropriate method to increase the superconducting temperature of graphene materials to 77K. Of course, this is a long-term goal, and it may be difficult to achieve in the short term."
Including several other researchers in the laboratory, they all listened with their ears pricked up. After all, it was related to the issue of how much money would be paid during the New Year. Everyone was curious.
Lu Zhou thought for a while and said.
Yang Xu nodded and said seriously: "I will convey your meaning correctly."
"You are saying this, you work so hard every day, how can I hack your bonus?" Lu Zhou cleared his throat and said with a smile, "I will go to the Finance Department in a while to explain the bonus matter. I promise that this year Everyone can have a New Year full of surprises.”
Yang Xu was stunned when he heard ten million dollars.
Most of their funding sources come from various state-funded scientific research funds, rather than enterprises. Under the condition that professors' salaries can already cover their living expenses, they are not particularly keen on converting research results into patents.
"OK, whether it is 77K or 100K, now it involves a problem. If this superconducting material can be realized, this technology has limited industrial application prospects... Regardless of whether anyone is interested in this technology, it will produce patent."
Once patent issues are involved, collaborative research is often not so pure.
Just like in China, there are also professors abroad who are not so keen on patent protection and just do research.
Puffing up her cheeks angrily, Han Mengqi buried her mouth in her scarf gloomily. She didn't say a word the whole way. After putting the sample box into the hands of the senior sister in the laboratory, she walked away without looking back.
Yang Xu chuckled: "Boss, can you tell me how much my bonus is? Just give me a rough idea."
However, if we simply regard a technology as “useless” because it cannot be industrialized, our understanding of science would be too superficial.
"By the way, speaking of money, I seemed to have said that I would give out a year-end bonus before I came back."
He almost forgot that his boss was a man who was not short of money.
He glanced blankly at the intern who had left. Yang Xu, who was standing not far away, looked at Lu Zhou with a strange look on his face and asked.
It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of research results are useless.
"What's Professor Herero's opinion?"
Lu Zhou smiled and asked, "What's the rough idea?"
"... Our next goal is to find an appropriate method to increase the superconducting temperature of graphene materials to 77K. Of course, this is a long-term goal, and it may be difficult to achieve in the short term."

Lu Zhou thought for a while and said.
Seven digits
The system has said that it can be done with 100K. It would be a pity not to use this clue.
Yang Xu: "..."
Yang Xu: "Just tell me how many months of salary you will get!"
"The target of 77K is too conservative. We can just set it at 100K."
Yang Xu: "According to the rumors I heard when I was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT, Professor Herero is a person who is indifferent to fame and wealth. It can be seen from the signatures of his previous papers that he rarely competes with students for experimental results. , and is even willing to train those he believes have potential.”
Even if 100K superconducting materials are developed, they probably won’t be sold at this price.
His original expectation was three to four months' salary.
Lu Zhou shook his head: "This is too accurate. I'd better tell you the number. You can guess the exact number yourself."
MMP…
"The target of 77K is too conservative. We can just set it at 100K."
Although Lu Zhou had no idea what this guy knew.
Indeed, no scholar would think that the funding is too much, and this ten million US dollars is indeed a figure that cannot be refused.
However, if we simply regard a technology as “useless” because it cannot be industrialized, our understanding of science would be too superficial.
Yang Xu: "..."
Yang Xu: "How many are there?"
He glanced blankly at the intern who had left. Yang Xu, who was standing not far away, looked at Lu Zhou with a strange look on his face and asked.
Yang Xu said helplessly: "Experiments are necessary at all times."
Puffing up her cheeks angrily, Han Mengqi buried her mouth in her scarf gloomily. She didn't say a word the whole way. After putting the sample box into the hands of the senior sister in the laboratory, she walked away without looking back.
Lu Zhou thought for a while: "There must be seven figures."
The system has said that it can be done with 100K. It would be a pity not to use this clue.
But without this 99% accumulation, there would be no breakthrough in the last 1%.
Lu Zhou: "Then 20 million."
Yang Xu was stunned for a moment.
Indeed, no scholar would think that the funding is too much, and this ten million US dollars is indeed a figure that cannot be refused.
Yang Xu shrugged: "He will most likely think that this technology should be used equally by everyone."
Even if 100K superconducting materials are developed, they probably won’t be sold at this price.
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows with interest: "A very imaginative name."
Yang Xu was stunned for a moment.
His original expectation was three to four months' salary.
Looking at Yang Xu, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.
