Chapter 91 Only children make choices
Hearing Liu Xu’s words, Ning Chen also felt a little flattered.
"Dean Liu, this is not good. In fact, Teacher Xu has also done a lot of work in it. I will feel uneasy if I take all the bonuses by myself."
Ning Chen felt that if Xu Zhou really felt that half of the bonus was too little, the worst they could do was re-divide the ratio. Xu Zhou couldn't be allowed to get nothing.
"Ning Chen, you don't have to feel uneasy. Since Teacher Xu Zhou has made this decision, you can just take the five hundred thousand reward with peace of mind."
Seeing what Liu Xu said, Ning Chen couldn't say anything more. After thanking Liu Xu again, he hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Ning Chen still felt a little guilty, so he went to Xu Zhou's laboratory to see if he could persuade Xu Zhou again.
"Ning Chen, you are here."
Seeing Ning Chen coming over, Xu Zhou didn't seem to be in such a high mood, which made Ning Chen feel something strange.
I just published an article in "Nature". As the instructor and corresponding author, Xu Zhou should be very happy these days.
"Could it be said that it was not Xu Zhou's own idea not to get the bonus?"
Thinking of this, Ning Chen asked:
"Teacher Xu, I heard from Dean Liu that I want you to Give me the bonus as well?”
“Well, I’m lucky enough to publish this paper with you, why am I so embarrassed to ask for the bonus?”
Xu Zhou knew in his heart that the core work of the entire project was completed by Ning Chen himself, and the work he did would not have a fundamental impact on Ning Chen's experimental results.
"Teacher Xu, is this really of your own free will?"
"Nonsense, could someone point a gun at me and stop me from receiving this bonus?"
With the right to With Xu Zhou's understanding, Ning Chen knew that this should really be Xu Zhou's voluntary behavior.
"Teacher Xu, why don't you take a little less. If you don't take anything, I always feel sorry in my heart."
"What can you feel sorry for? It won't happen for a while." You go to the cafeteria and treat me to a meal, and this matter will be over.”
"Hmm...that's okay, Teacher Xu, you choose the most expensive one." Ning Chen smiled.
"Okay, no more joking. Ning Chen, I suggest you do experiments with other teachers in the future. There are many better and more senior teachers in our college. My abilities and qualifications are too shallow. I’m afraid I won’t be able to take you.”
Hearing what Xu Zhou said, Ning Chen gradually understood what Xu Zhou was worried about.
"Teacher Xu, your qualifications may be less than those of other teachers, but there is absolutely no problem with your ability. You can stay in school for two years and become an associate professor. Do you still have any doubts about your ability? What? "
Ning Chen knew that Xu Zhou might have received more attention because this paper was about to be published in "Nature", which also put more pressure on him.
But Ning Chen also knew that Xuzhou would make many outstanding achievements after this, proving that he had strong enough scientific research capabilities.
Hearing Ning Chen’s words, Xu Zhou seemed to have figured out something.
"Hey, what you said makes sense. You just told me to invite me to the cafeteria for dinner. Don't forget it later."
"Okay, I will definitely not forget it." Ning Chen smiled.
In fact, the reason why Ning Chen chose Xu Zhou as his instructor before was that in addition to Xu Zhou’s strong professional ability, Ning Chen also liked the way Xu Zhou got along with his students.
In private, Xu Zhou and the students would be like friends, which would relieve Ning Chen from any psychological burden.
When getting along with some old professors, Ning Chen may often worry about whether he will be criticized for saying something wrong or not doing something well. This is something Ning Chen does not A state of liking.
As for another reason why Xu Zhou was unwilling to accept the bonus, Ning Chen thought it was because Xu Zhou was a very pure person for academics.
Other teachers may not even consider giving up this bonus. After all, the corresponding author is responsible for a research result, and it is natural to receive a bonus.
Xuzhou, on the other hand, hopes to truly rely on his own research to achieve results, or at least play a decisive role in the entire project.
In the evening, Ning Chen really invited Xu Zhou to the cafeteria for a meal. Xu Zhou was not polite to Ning Chen. He spent more than 20 yuan on Ning Chen, which exceeded the upper limit of the meal card. Ning Chen had to enter the meal. The card password can be used to continue payment.
After this meal, Ning Chen felt that Xu Zhou and himself were really a bit like friends. Of course, in terms of psychological age, the two people were indeed very close in age.
......
With the release of the next issue of "Nature", Ning Chen's article "Preparation of porous silicon nanoparticles and their application in lithium-ion battery negative electrodes" will also Then it was officially published.
After Ning Chen’s paper was officially published, the school also started to go through the process for the bonus for this paper. Ning Chen only waited for the bonus to officially arrive, and then he paid off Zhou Li’s loan first, and then exchanged it for another A high-configuration computer allows Xiaozhi to study better.
Because the research results of the paper may have great application value, this paper has attracted the attention of many people. Some materials laboratories are already preparing to replicate this experiment at Shengzhou University.
Various media also made some gimmicky reports on this research.
"Shocked! The lithium battery industry will enter a new era!"
"Shengzhou University Materials Laboratory has developed a new lithium battery that can increase battery capacity by 40%!"
"Silicon-based anode lithium batteries, the new energy code!"
As for the defects of silicon-based anode lithium batteries described in the paper, there is no indication in the titles of these reports.
After seeing these media reports, Ning Chen also felt very dumbfounded.
“After seeing these news, I feel that silicon-based lithium batteries will be on the market tomorrow.”
In fact, because of the serious shortcomings in the lifespan of silicon-based lithium batteries, people who want to truly I don’t know how long it will take to apply this technology.
...
After the school’s approval, the five hundred thousand bonus was finally credited to Ning Chen’s bank card.
As soon as he got the bonus, Ning Chen called Zhou Li.
"Sister Zhou, give me your bank card number and I will send you the money."
Hearing Ning Chen's words, Zhou Li was also a little surprised.
"You collected 200,000 yuan so quickly? There's no need to be in such a hurry."
"Sister Zhou, I recently published an essay, and the school gave me some bonuses. Send me your card number. OK, I’ll call you later.”
“Okay, I’ll send it to you via QQ.”
Because the transfer amount was relatively large, Ning Chen went to a nearby bank. Completed the transfer procedure at the window.
"Teacher Ning, I have received the money here. When you come to class next time, you want to take back the IOU."
"Okay, please excuse me, Sister Zhou."
After finally paying off Zhou Li's loan, a stone in Ning Chen's heart finally fell.
From now on, Ning Chen really feels that the house in Xiangdu Garden is completely his own property.
After completing this task, Ning Chen also began to think about changing computers.
What makes Ning Chen a little confused is whether he should buy a laptop or a desktop computer.
At the same price, desktop computers undoubtedly have higher performance.
Laptops are more convenient to carry. Whether you go to the laboratory or to other places, you will definitely still have to carry your laptop with you.
However, Ning Chen quickly made a decision after a brief moment of confusion.
“Since desktop computers and laptops have their own advantages, why can’t we buy both together?”
Now Ning Chen already owns a property that was fully paid for. There is about 400,000 yuan left in the bank card, which can be said to be very abundant.
Even if you buy two top-of-the-line computers, tens of thousands of yuan is enough. Of course, Ning Chen will definitely not consider such overly luxurious but flashy accessories.
After all, children make the choices, of course adults want them all.
"The desktop computer is kept at home for Xiaozhi to study and upgrade. The laptop is carried with him for various scientific research work. Well, that's it."
Since laptops are It is sold as a complete machine, so it won’t be too difficult to choose. However, there are many tricks in desktop computers. If you directly ask someone from a computer store to install it, you will inevitably encounter pitfalls.
Ning Chen decided to choose the accessories for the host by himself, and after buying the accessories, he installed it himself.
This is not difficult for Ning Chen. After all, they are both engineering students and they still have some practical skills.
After researching the current computer accessories, Ning Chen quickly made a list of installations.
