310 Lin Fan’s a Good Role Model; Cooperate!
That night, Lin Fan arrived at Yi Ke City.
Qiu Ziqian and Huang Ling were so happy that they did not sleep the entire night.
…
The next day, Lin Fan dragged his tired body to the classroom.
At this time, there were still a few minutes before class started. The students around were chatting about games and television dramas, relaxed and unrestrained.
The old professor strolled in after the bell rang.
He cleared his throat and began his lullaby-like lecture.
Lin Fan felt his eyelids sink, and he fell asleep.
When the bell rang, the old professor stopped lecturing.
It was also at this moment that hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the corridor.
“Lin Fan… Is Lin Fan here?”
The old professor and the students all looked towards the door.
It was Professor Zhao Xueqin and Professor Li Rongfa, who had interacted with Lin Fan not long ago.
The old professor obviously knew them and could not help but ask in puzzlement, “Professor Zhao, Professor Li, why are you looking for Lin Fan?”
It was no wonder the old professor asked.
If a mathematics or physics teacher or professor came to look for Lin Fan, that was easier to understand.
After all, Lin Fan was a genius in the mathematics department.
Whether it was mathematics or physics, there were some complicated computational problems involved.
However, the problem was that Zhao Xueqin and Li Rongfa were professors in the School of Chemistry!
Chemistry did not require particularly complicated calculations, right?
Li Rongfa said, “Lin Fan’s super battery thesis has been published in the latest issue of Science!”
After he said this, his voice trembled with excitement.
Li Rongfa was a chemistry professor, and he also had a deep understanding of batteries.
Lin Fan even added his and Zhao Xueqin’s names to the thesis. Even though it was only as second authors, it was a great honor!
As Li Rongfa finished speaking, the entire classroom instantly fell silent.
Nature and Science were known as the best in scientific research.
Everyone who was involved in scientific research dreamed of being able to publish a thesis in those two journals.
Lin Fan was a genius.
However, he was a math genius!
Why would he have a paper published in Science?
Moreover, it was a battery thesis. Chemistry?
This…
When did Lin Fan start researching chemistry?
When the class suddenly fell into silence, Lin Fan’s snoring sounded particularly abrupt.
The old professor, the students, Zhao Xueqin, and Li Rongfa looked over at the sound of snoring. They all focused their gazes on Lin Fan.
Everyone had the same thought, ‘He must have stayed up the entire night last night! Outstanding people sure do work the hardest!’
At this moment, Lin Fan slowly woke up from his deep sleep.
He raised his head and looked at everyone’s gazes. For a moment, he was at a loss.
He muttered in his heart, ‘Wasn’t it fine to sleep in class in the past? What’s going on today? Why is everyone looking at me?’
The old professor praised sincerely, “Lin Fan, you’re truly good! You’re a role model for everyone!”
The old professor was the first to applaud.
Then…
All the students in the class applauded.
Lin Fan was stunned again. What was going on?
Role model?
Role model for what?
Sleeping while studying?
It did not seem like it.
Zhao Xueqin and Li Rongfa hurried over.
“Lin Fan, your paper, Principles and Applications of Super Batteries, has been published in Science! Moreover, it even appeared on the cover!”
As Li Rongfa spoke, he quickly showed the cover of the latest issue of Science.
When the old professor and the other students heard this, the horror on their faces intensified.
The cover!
To be able to publish a thesis in Science was already extremely rare.
Lin Fan had actually appeared on the cover!
This…
This…
Compared to everyone’s surprise, Lin Fan’s face revealed a look of realization.
How smart was he?
He instantly understood that the old professor’s words were indeed a compliment.
Lin Fan looked at the super smart watch on his wrist and secretly gave it a thumbs-up.
In just a few days, the thesis passed the review and was successfully published.
Lil White’s ability was not bad!
Li Rongfa continued, “I and Professor Zhao didn’t help you at all. But you wrote our names as the second authors… We don’t deserve it.”
When Li Rongfa said this, he became excited again.
The old professor standing on the podium revealed a hint of envy.
The cover of Science… Even if it was as second author, it was still a very big deal.
Lin Fan said calmly, “You guys helped me by showing me the battery experiment. So, there’s no problem writing it putting your names for the position of second authors.”
They became second authors of a thesis published in Science just because they let him watch the battery experiment?
The old professor said, “I can do that too!”
At this moment, another set of footsteps sounded from outside the corridor.
Feng Weijian, the vice chancellor of Jiangbei University, and a square-faced middle-aged man walked in.
“Professor Zhao, Professor Li, Professor Wang, you’re all here.” Feng Weijian smiled.
Then, he looked at Lin Fan and pointed at the square-faced man beside him, “Lin Fan, this is Mr. Ran Fei, the chairman of Dahua Phone Group. He says he has something to discuss with you.”
“Hello, Mr. Lin,” Ran Fei said hurriedly.
Lin Fan said, “Hello, Chairman Ran. May I know why you’re looking for me?”
Ran Fei hesitated for a moment and said, “I want to start a cooperation with you on the super battery.”
Silence.
The entire classroom fell silent again.
Previously, the students only thought that Lin Fan was able to publish a thesis on Science and that it was an amazing thing. Most of them admired him for it.
At this moment, they were filled with envy. It could even be said that they were jealous.
One had to know…
Dahua Phone Group was the leading company in the entire communications industry in Hua Nation.
Dahua Phone Group was not listed, but according to external estimates, its market value was at least two trillion yuan.
The chairman of such a large company actually came over personally to discuss cooperation because of Lin Fan’s super battery.
How much compensation would that be?
100 million?
300 million?
More?
When the students thought of this, they felt their throats go dry.
Regarding this…
Lin Fan said calmly, “Cooperation? Sure.”
In fact, he could also choose to build his own company or factory.
However, just thinking about it made Lin Fan feel troubled.
In addition, Dahua Phone Company’s reputation had always been good, so it was worth working with them.
“Then why don’t we go somewhere else to talk?” Ran Fei said happily. “After all, I still have to get the company to send the corresponding information and contract over by fax.”
Lin Fan nodded. “Alright.”
