I am devoted to scientific research, but you want to trick me into having a love relationship?

Chapter 466 If the experiment fails, I can only go back to being a gigolo
In the living room, Er Miao was lying lazily on the windowsill, staring at the sunset outside the window in a daze.

"Ah."

The girl nodded, her voice clear and cold.

"You don't even think about it?"

Xu Qingzhou also lifted up Song Xiaohua's left foot, pinching it and teasing, "This project will cost at least one million US dollars, and it's a bottomless pit. If it fails, both of us will become paupers."

For example, the Princeton project has an experimental budget of 200 million US dollars, and it is the first phase.

For the Riemann hypothesis, Peking University offers a prize of 200 million RMB, MIT offers a prize of 50 USD, plus previous prizes.

The amount of money he can use is about 1000 million RMB.

“That’s your money.”

Song Yao blinked.

Xu Qingzhou hooked Song Yao's feet through her white socks and said unhappily, "We are already married, what's mine and yours?"

Song Yao glared and almost kicked the man.

It's not washed yet, so it definitely smells.

You said I would only massage the legs!
"What are you staring at?"

Xu Qingzhou was unusually tough, and said with a straight face: "This is the punishment for saying something wrong to you. If it happens again next time, it won't be as simple as tickling, but a spanking."

Song Yao curled her lips and was speechless. The two of them had indeed obtained their marriage certificate and were legally husband and wife.

"I can support you."

Song Yao is obsessed with supporting Xu Qingzhou, even though there is little possibility of realizing it.

"Domineering."

Xu Qingzhou gave Song Yao a thumbs up.

Song Yao continued to pick up the water cup, biting the straw and said: "Next month, the third phase project bonus and SCI bonus will be released, and you forgot that I, like Professor Morton, am also working at Morgan Stanley, with a monthly income of 2 US dollars, and also stocks."

Her own money totals more than one million.

It's okay to keep a man.

Besides, this guy is just interested in sese, and now he doesn’t smoke, so he doesn’t have any big expenses.

"As long as you agree."

Xu Qingzhou smiled gently, his fingertips sliding across her soft thighs: "If the experiment fails, I will go home and eat free meals."

No matter how many times I touch the legs of School Beauty Song, I never get tired of touching them.

Noticing that Xu Qingzhou's hand was moving higher and higher, School Beauty Song pulled her legs out of his arms and tidied up his hair, "Professor Xu, be more confident. You can do it."

"Student Song, I'm confident that it's time to take a shower."

"No."

"It's just taking a shower together. I'm not doing anything."

"Ha~"

Xu Qingzhou spent another five days organizing the materials. Only when everything was ready did he officially start writing the project application.

7 month 28 day.

Office of Research Administration.

Wilson, the person in charge, made a cup of coffee for Xu Qingzhou and said with a smile: "Compared to Horn, this coffee may be slightly inferior, please don't mind." "Thank you, it tastes very good."

Xu Qingzhou thought to himself that it was no wonder that Professor Roberts’ office was called the “MIT Coffee Shop”; it seemed that everyone would go there to drink free coffee.

Wilson sat down and got to the point, saying, "Professor Xu, the academic committee has read your research application and given me corresponding suggestions."

Xu Qingzhou put down his coffee: "What was the result?"

"What they mean is that they hope you can change to another subject, such as mathematics, which is your best subject."

Wilson said helplessly.

A mathematics professor suddenly started to study condensed matter physics, which he was not very familiar with. It seemed unreliable no matter how you looked at it.

MIT hired Xu Qingzhou with an annual salary of $500,000, and did not set any conditions such as teaching or scientific research tasks. Of course, it also hoped that he would achieve some world-renowned achievements in mathematics.

It would be best to come up with another mathematical conjecture.

This will secure MIT's position in the mathematics community.

But who would have known that this young man would not follow the beaten path and his first project would be in a field that was completely unrelated to the subject.

You know, there are more than 10 top teams in the world conducting research in this field, and the competition is fierce. Look at Xu Qingzhou, who is alone and a mathematics major, so it can be said that he has almost no chance of winning.

"What do you mean?" Xu Qingzhou nodded, having been mentally prepared.

"Coincidentally, in addition to you, the Academic Committee has received another project application in this field. Professor James intends to develop niobium nitride (NbN) thin films with the goal of increasing (T_c) from 15K to 25K."

"You should know that his team is definitely among the best in the world."

"I have the honor of reading your papers on quantum mechanics and particle physics. They are very brilliant. But if it is about condensed matter, it is a wrong choice to apply for your topic from any angle. So, if possible, I also suggest that you change the topic."

Wilson paused and said sincerely, "As long as it's a mathematics topic. Funding, equipment, and personnel are not a problem."

Xu Qingzhou took a sip of coffee and said in a deep voice: "What if I invest in this project myself?"

"You invest it yourself?" Wilson was stunned, a little surprised.

"Correct."

“This is going to be an extremely large amount of money.”

"I know."

Xu Qingzhou nodded and told his plan: "I am willing to bear all the expenses during the experiment. Of course, we have to sign the "Intellectual Property Division Agreement". If the experiment is successful, I need the patent rights."

Wilson was silent, thought for a moment, and said, "I can agree on behalf of the academic committee. However, Professor Xu, I still think you should consider topics in the field of mathematics. This is also what you are good at, isn't it?"

"But I don't want to regret not trying the subject I'm interested in today one day decades later."

Xu Qingzhou shook his head and said.

Wilson looked at Xu Qingzhou's serious expression and finally nodded: "As an apology, I can waive the equipment usage fee for you, but as for the other things, you know, the board of directors are all old-fashioned people, they would rather see results."

MIT has two laboratories that can conduct this experiment. The newly built one was assigned to Professor James, and the remaining old laboratory was just right for Xu Qingzhou.

MIT will have its own Fields Medal winner. Moreover, Xu Qingzhou, the Fields Medal winner, is also the winner of the Wolf Medal in Mathematics, which is much more valuable to MIT than hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Furthermore, it can be regarded as a gesture of goodwill to this talented mathematician. Even if Xu Qingzhou eventually returns to Xia Country, as long as he stays in the scientific research circle, they will meet sooner or later.

"Thank you." Xu Qingzhou thanked with a smile.

This was expected. He had already paid the expenses, so MIT had no reason to refuse.
