In a round of applause, the speech is finally over.

Put down the chalk in his hand and watch the audience under the audience. Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction.

This year's audience is okay.

At least it is much stronger than at the m conference.

Obviously, the professors who studied crystal chemistry and physical chemistry still understand his theory.

After those who went back, there were scholars who had conducted in-depth research on his thesis, and they also understood more than 70% here.

Such a result is fairly acceptable to him.

As the award ceremony of the Adams Chemistry Prize came to an end, the opening ceremony came to an end.

After the official start of the Organic Chemistry Symposium, Lu Zhou temporarily put the joy of the award aside and participated in the academic exchange meeting with a learning attitude.

As the saying goes, living to the old age, even if it is standing in the frontier of research, there are many things that he needs to learn.

However, the study here has changed in form compared to the study of the student era. For a scholar who creates knowledge, it is more focused on sharing discussions with peers, reading literature, listening to reports, etc. than learning from books.

This organic chemistry seminar gave him such an opportunity and really benefited him.

On the afternoon of the next day, Lu Zhou, who had just listened to an organic chemistry lecture, gave himself a cup of coffee, went to the rest area and found a corner to sit down and quietly sorted out the notes he had collected.

In the previous meeting, a researcher showed a non-fullerene organic solar cell, and presented a fluorinated binary heterojunction battery current-voltage curve and the highest photoelectric conversion efficiency curve. .

The data on this picture is very beautiful.

Although he is not researching photovoltaic materials, he still has some research on fullerene materials. And what interests him the most is the part of the paper about mathematical analysis. The author of the paper has a good mathematical foundation. He plans to spend some time studying it.

However, at this moment, the sound of high heels sounded next to him, and a blonde beauty sat across from him.

Was disturbed by the idea, Lu Zhou looked up and looked at the beautiful woman sitting opposite from the line of sight.

"you are?"

Grinning and smiling, the blond beauty extended his right hand to him. "My name is Roy, I am very glad to meet you."

"I am also very happy to meet you..." She shook hands with her. After loosening, Lu Zhou asked in a puzzled voice, "Which university are you a student?"

“I am a master's degree at Harvard University, but not a chemistry major.”

It seems that it is not to recommend letters.

Lu Zhou picked an eyebrow: "Journalist of the journalism department?"

Blindly, Roy mysteriously evoked the corner of his mouth: "between the two."

Lu Zhou smiled and said: "Is it a writer?"

"Yes!" Roy snapped a finger and blinked at him. "I am a science writer."

Is it really a novel?

Although there are still many differences between popular science works and novels.

Lu Zhou smiled and asked with interest: "I didn't expect to be interested in my research. It's not just companies and media. I wonder why you are looking for me?"

Roy: "In fact, I signed up for this organic chemistry seminar, mainly to find the inspiration for writing. I didn't expect to hit the awards scene of the Adams Chemistry Prize."

Lu Zhou smiled and said: "I guess you didn't understand my speech."

"I really didn't understand it, but it didn't prevent your speech from inspiring me a lot, especially your insights on energy and materials, so that my inspiration came from my mind." Seriously watching Lu Zhou The lady said in a sincere tone, "I have a few questions I hope to ask you. I don't know if I can take up your time?"

Looking at the misty mist on the coffee cup, Lu Zhou thought about the next itinerary and said in a relaxed tone: "...I have time before I finish the coffee."

"Don't worry, I won't delay you for a long time." Roy smiled, not knowing where to change the shorthand and a pen, and quickly began to ask questions, "So, the first question..."

Roy asked some very shallow questions, or science.

Lu Zhou used the language as much as possible, the part he knew, and corrected some misconceptions that were misunderstood by the media.

Time passed quickly.

When he finished his coffee, Roy just asked all the questions and put away the shorthand and the pen in his hand.

“Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to answer my questions. After my work is published successfully, I will send you a copy for free.”

Lu Zhou joked: "Is there a signature?"

Roy smiled and said: "If you need it, let me sign it."

Suddenly, she continued in a joking tone.

"This is my business card, I am very interested in you, maybe we can talk in depth."

Leaving a business card with a contact information, the blond beauty looked at Lu Zhou with a sly look, leaving a scent of wind and got up and walked away.

Looking at her back, Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head.

In-depth communication?

forget it.

Even the professors at Cornell University can't understand my theory. It's also a white communication to communicate with you that is too difficult to understand.

Just then, an unexpected acquaintance came over.

Looked at Roy's back, Carrotit said with ease.

"Your taste is good."

Lu Zhou asked casually: "Do you need me to ask you for a call?"

"It sounds very attractive," sat down on the sofa where Roy had sat, and Carlod stared at Lu Zhou. "But I am not coming to talk to you about women."

Didn't you mention this first?

Lu Zhou glanced at him silently and put away the business card in his hand.

"So, are you coming to talk to me?"

Carrotit said: "Don't talk about anything, just to tell you a bad news."

Lu Zhou’s eyebrows lifted slightly: “Oh?”

Carrotit said with a serious look: "Mobil Chemical intends to intervene in the production of lithium-sulfur battery materials, not only that, they found Professor Stanley!"

That's it...

I thought it was a big event, Lu Zhou, a faceless expression,

"Oh, I already know."

Carrotit slammed down and quickly responded with an alert: "Wood has already found you?"

Lu Zhou nodded and replied with a relaxed tone: "Yes, just the night before, I didn't arrive in San Francisco for a long time. He and Stanley came here to visit me."

Caro Ditt’s eyes glanced around and asked, “Which step did they take?”

Lu Zhou frowned slightly: "What step?"

Carrotit sighed: "Of course it's research progress... and so on, you shouldn't be, don't ask them anything?"

Lu Zhou gave him a strange look: "What do I need to ask them?"

Carrotit: "..."

Looking at the incredible expression on Carnot's face, Lu Zhou sighed softly. "To tell the truth, I don't quite understand why you are so careful."

"That's because you don't understand how terrible the market prospects for sulphur batteries are," said Kardett, taking a deep breath and restraining the anxious emotions. He said, "Mear, Mobil is also studying the positives of lithium-sulfur batteries. Materials, and their research and development direction is also based on carbon-carbon composites of hollow carbon spheres! And you have helped them a lot, you should not publish the two papers in Science!"

Even if Umisoft, the old rival of Umicore, took the lead in researching this technology, it would not make Carnott so nervous.

However, Exxon Mobil is not the same.

This cross-disciplinary oil giant naturally walks on the upstream of their chemical industry chain, and naturally has a unique advantage in the cost of raw materials.

Once Exxon Mobil became interested in the cathode material of lithium-sulfur batteries, it was not from the mouth of Umicore that it took a piece of meat, but cut a piece of meat from all of their chemical giants.

Just as there is a gap between genius and genius, there is a gap between the giant and the giant.

however……

What does this have to do with Lu Zhou?

He is not a shareholder of Umicore.

"I don't agree with your point of view. The value of academics can only be sublimated in communication." Lu Zhou frowned slightly. "And my own research results, published or not published, need to be discussed with you?"

"No, I don't mean this," he noticed the dissatisfaction in Lu Zhou's tone. Carlo Ditt quickly eased his tone of voice and explained, "I admire your confidence, but the problem is that confidence has to be seen. You know, your competitors are Exxon Mobil! They have already added $50 million in chips to Professor Stanley in order to start this battle! Do you understand what this means?"

Looking at Carmarti, who was in a hurry, Lu Zhou did not know how to comfort him.

Obviously, Umicore is also studying the cathode material of lithium-sulfur batteries, and has invested a lot of money in ambitious, ready to take the lead in this project. In a sense, Luzhou and Umicore are also competitors in the lithium-sulfur battery project, but the competition is not as strong as that of Umicore and Mobil.

If Lu Zhou first researched it, Umicore made a part of the profit at the top, then he was researched by Nichia, and at most it was only a knife. But if you let Mobil's ambitious boasting giants take the lead, it is to die.

It is precisely because of this, Lu Zhou’s two papers suddenly made them panic.

Especially in the case of racing with Mobil Chemical, no one knows how many meters away from the finish line. These two papers are like time bombs, which makes Carnotte unable to sleep.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou is also very unwilling to go.

But even if he is re-selected, he will still make the same choice as before.

After a pause, Lu Zhou tried to comfort the sentence with a gentle tone.

"Let's relax, I never took you as a competitor."

Carrotit: "..."
