King Who Will Cross

"The King of New Tuvalu, gone mad again."

"It's really stupid how fast money comes in. You say, is it because it is too easy for him to earn money, so he dares to waste it like this?"

"I also submitted a research application. I am going to study how to make a curtain in front of the sun. When the summer is too hot, I will close the curtain. Do you think the king of New Tuvalu will approve my research application? ?”

"How much research funding did you apply for upstairs? If it's not more than a penny, I think the king of New Tuvalu will approve your research application."

…

The storm in the academic world was released to the entertainment section with a large number of followers by some entertainment journalists with a keen sense of smell in a short period of time.

Yes, a recruitment event only for scientific researchers was published in the entertainment section of many media.

As a result, it also triggered a lot of discussions among netizens.

In the king's villa in New Tuvalu, after the initial screening of the first batch of more than 20,000 research projects, Ultron once again reported: "Your Majesty, we have received more than 300,000 research applications. .According to my preliminary analysis, these 300,000 research applications are completely devoid of any practical significance."

Li Daniu asked curiously: "For example?"

Ao Chuang called out some representative research projects, and introduced: "For example, this research plan is to create a huge curtain in front of the sun, which can block the sunlight hitting the earth. Another example, this The research plan is to study a device that, after being installed on a human body, can instantly convert the feces excreted by humans into energy and reintroduce it into the human body. And..."

"Stop!" Li Daniu was disgusted and said, "What the **** are these things?"

Ao Chuang said: "Someone published the mailbox we received the research plan, so many netizens participated in this matter."

Li Daniu laughed when he heard that it was done by netizens, and said, "Let's just filter out all of these. By the way, how does the academic community evaluate my behavior this time?"

Ao Chuang replied: "Many people think that you just want to enrich the teaching staff of the New Tuvalu Royal Academy through huge funds, and then turn the New Tuvalu Royal Academy into a world-class institution of higher learning."

Li Daniu nodded and said: "This is indeed my idea, but does no one think that I really want to promote many research projects?"

Ultron replied: "There are very few people who have the idea you mentioned. Because in many people's opinion, projects that have development prospects or can be successfully researched can be funded by capital. Those who do not have funding and want to Scientists who want to continue their projects through your research grants are research projects with no future."

Li Daniu laughed and said: "For other people, it is a very risky thing to choose to invest in these scientific researchers who can't find investors. But for us, haha... definitely an advantage Great deal."

Ultron said: "According to my preliminary analysis, among the research applications that have been submitted, there are more than 35 projects that match some of the completed scientific research projects in the database. If you decide to fund these research projects, then, through subconscious influence equipment , It is estimated that within half a year, these 35 research projects can be completed."

Li Daniu asked: "How much research funding has been applied for in total for these 35 research projects?"

Ultron replied: "16.7575 billion US dollars."

"It's still a lot worse." Li Daniu sighed and asked, "How many of the camouflaged robots we released before are engaged in scientific research?"

"53!"

Li Daniu laughed and said, "Very well, let these 53 camouflaged robots submit research applications, and then form their own research teams."

Ao Chuang asked suspiciously: "But, Your Majesty, if camouflaged robots occupy most of the scientific research funds, then you will not be able to achieve your goal of improving the teaching staff of the New Tuvalu Royal Academy."

Li Daniu shook his head and said: "Ao Chuang, this is like a lottery. Every issue has tens of millions of people buying it, but in fact there are only a few winners. As long as the whole world sees it, some The researchers who are familiar with them have successfully obtained huge returns through our funding. Then, our New Tuvalu Royal Family Research Fund can become the hope of all researchers who are on the street.”

Ultron said: "I can probably understand what you mean, so, can we start to identify funding projects immediately?"

Li Daniu said: "No, it's not the time yet. This time, we will come one by one. Starting tomorrow, we will announce a confirmed funding research project every two days. When this batch of research funds is about to run out, next A fund will continue to arrive.”

Ao Chuang said: "You mean, if you want to cultivate the habit of scientific researchers all over the world, when looking for research funds, put the first choice on the New Tuvalu Royal Research Fund?"

Li Daniu said: "Not only that, we also need to use certain means to make people all over the world think that if you join the New Tuvalu Royal Academy, or even join the New Tuvalu citizenship, you will have the opportunity to obtain research funding. The bigger it is. Of course, on the bright side, we are determined not to admit this."

…

Three days after journals such as Science published advertisements for the new Tuvalu Royal Research Fund, Mars received a call.

After hanging up the phone, Mars stopped walking into the classroom, turned around and rushed outside the school. At the same time, he took out his mobile phone and made a call to book a ticket to New Tuvalu.

After the class bell rang, the students waiting in the classroom did not see the professor who they thought was very boring, and left the classroom happily and leisurely.

Soon, the dean of the medical school got the news that Mars, the lecturer, skipped class without asking for leave.

"Just as he was about to stop his courses and end the funding for his research, he jumped out on his own initiative." The dean was secretly delighted, and directly gave relevant instructions.

Mars, who was packing his luggage at his residence, received a call from the academy.

"Professor Mars, I'm sorry, because your behavior has caused very bad influence, so we decided to deduct your research funds for this month. And, I'm sorry to inform you that your course will be suspended next semester, if You want to teach a new course~www.wuxiaspot.com~you can apply for it.”

Mars felt his chest hurt again, and asked, "Why don't you just terminate the contract with me?"

There was an instant silence on the phone.

Mars continued: "I will type a resignation report now, and I hope you can approve it as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, Mars pulled up his suitcase, went out and hailed the car to go to the airport.

And the resignation report he sent in the car was printed out by the dean's assistant in the shortest time, and then relevant personnel were asked to sign it.

Before Mars got on the plane, the assistant dean called him again and said, "Professor Mars, your resignation report has been approved, and I sent it to your address just now. If you need to pack your belongings, please Come to the academy within a week."

Mars didn't feel sad at all, hung up the phone directly, then called a familiar colleague, asked him to help put away his computer, and boarded the plane to New Tuvalu.

A day later, a piece of news quickly became a hot topic in the academic circle.

"Mars? Isn't that the guy at Harvard working on impractical man-made regenerative technologies? How could he be the first to receive a grant from the New Tuvalu Royal Research Fund?"

"The most important thing is that he received a funding of 300 million US dollars at once, which is more than our research laboratory."

"It's obviously six times our research funding, okay?"

"Why don't we try to apply?"

The dean of Harvard Medical School was still happy to clear up a cancer that wasted college resources when he heard the news that Mars had received 300 million dollars in funding.

"Is this world crazy? Guys like Mars, why would anyone still fund them?"
