Chapter 434: Professor Razelson's decision

Just as the Ark reached a consensus with Professor Green, he was walking outside the Princeton Institute of Higher Studies office with a strange figure.

He seemed hesitant for a while, and the man knocked on the door and walked into the office.

“Is this Professor Ark's office? ”

Stop the pen and Vera says, "Yes, what can I do for you? ”

The old man looked at the office: “I need to talk to him... has he taken another day off? ”

“No,” Vera shook her head, "but he went out in the morning. ”

The old man continued, “Can you tell me where I can find him? ”

“He's been at the John Norman Supercomputer Research Center for the past few days, where you can go if you want. ”

“Ultra-country? Ok... thanks.” The old man nodded and was about to turn around and leave the office.

At this point, however, the office door suddenly opened.

Meteor walked in with data back from the John Norman Supercomputer Research Center.

When Lazerson was seen, the ark was slightly stunned.

At first, he thought he was mistaken.

Because since the end of last year, Professor Razelson has been visiting the German Spiral 7-X Laboratory to communicate, and both have been communicating via email.

Until then, he had not heard that he was coming back.

“Lazerson? My dear friend, are you back from Germany? When did you get back? ”

Lazerson looked at the watch.

“I got off the plane about five hours ago...”

Ark Haha smiled and said: "Anyway, welcome back! Actually, I was just about to email you some good news, but it doesn't look like it anymore. Come here, I'll show you a baby. ”

Looking at an excited ark, Professor Razelson hesitated, but followed him to the side of the computer.

The laptop was turned on, the USB stick was plugged into the ark, and the analog software was swiftly turned on.

Professor Razelson had a surprise look on his face when he looked at the circular image of the road in the screen, interlaced by three lines: green, red and yellow.

“Surprisingly… did you do it? ”

“There is one last step to go, and I need to complete the inspection of the model with over-counting, which may take a few more days. But this mathematical model, I've basically finished,” The corner of the ark's mouth lifts a smug smile, “isn't it amazing? ”

“Yes...” hesitated, Lazer coughed softly, "Congratulations! This mathematical model alone deserves at least one prize in physics. Besides, I came back this time mainly to tell you something, hope you don't get too surprised when you hear it. ”

Noting the serious look on Professor Razelson's face, the ark stunned slightly, and then narrowed the joke and asked seriously.

“What is it?”

RAZERSON: “I'm going to quit. ”

Though prepared to say something horrible about him, the Ark did not expect him to say it.

Looking at Lazerson, the ark asked in an incredible tone: "Resign? ”

“Yes," Professor Razelson nodded, "the HE-3 atomic probe technology is a very good plasma diagnostic technique, and I have a feeling that it will become the standard for every plasma physics institute in the future. If every HE-3 atomic probe had to be designed and constructed by me with a group of engineers, that would be too much trouble. So I want to design a standardized device that can be removed or installed directly, preferably one that can be connected to a power source. ”

This message sounds...

Let the ark really not know what to say.

After about five seconds of silence, the Ark finally couldn't help but say, "You've been a project manager, maybe even a PPPL lab director in a few years... is this worth it? ”

“Nothing is worth it, it seems to me that it makes more sense for He-3 technology to flourish than being the head of a project or the director of a research institute at PPPL. Besides, what good does PPPL's lab director do me? I'd rather have a budget of millions of dollars for research that I like, than control hundreds of millions of dollars without a dollar for myself. ”

Ark: “But... my dear Professor Razelson, how many plasma physics institutes can afford your equipment? Or are you willing to order your equipment? ”

“It's not a problem, or just an order. I'm not worried,” Professor Razelson laughed and said easily, "I know you may not see this money, after all, you've thrown out a million dollar millennium prize. ”

The Ark emphasised: "I didn't push it off, I just postponed the award! ”

“Okay, well, postponing the award is not the point anyway,” Professor Razelson waved, “back to the subject, although my company is just getting started, I have already talked about more than two tens of millions of dollars. ”

Jumping from academia to business, both domestically and abroad, is not a rare thing.

Technologist engineers like Professor Razelson in particular are far more efficient at converting technology into products than theorists in general.

Not only that, thanks to his connections in the academic community, he could easily get orders from the major plasma physics institutes, but for his colleagues in the plasma physics community, he was also willing to entrust professional matters to someone he trusted with acceptable prices.

But that's not good news for an ark.

Not because of the uneven distribution of benefits.

HE-3 probe technology he had not rushed to earn money, also planned to register a patent, mainly to facilitate his own experiment, he was also happy to see someone turn it into a product, so as to save him a lot of trouble.

But what he didn't expect was that this man was actually Razorson.

If Professor Razelson chooses to withdraw at this time, he undoubtedly loses a good partner.

The Ark finally tried to persuade: "You're in your fifties, and I suggest you seriously consider making another decision. ”

Professor Razelson shook his head: "Fifty is not very old, my heart is young. And I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I'm here today mainly to say goodbye to you. ”

Looking at Professor Razelson with a firm eye, the Ark knew that it was superfluous to persuade him of anything else.

After a moment of silence, he finally sighed and said with regret: "Good luck… if there is anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate. ”

Everyone has their own choices, although they are reluctant to do so.

Professor Razelson was his partner, not his employee, and he did not interfere in the positions chosen by others.

When he heard the second half of the ark, Professor Razelson's eyes suddenly lit up.

“Really? Will you help me? ”

When he saw Professor Razelson, who was delighted, the ark stunned slightly: “Of course… but the specifics depend on what it is. ”

“Cough, here's the thing… Although I've raised a certain amount of money, there's still a funding gap. Of course, I've considered lending to a bank, but it's not easy for a start-up high-tech company to borrow money from a bank," Cleared his voice, Professor Razelson blushed, embarrassed to say, "Interested in investing? ”

Ark: “…”
