The atmosphere was embarrassing.

Time and space seemed to be frozen, stiff and terrible.

Lawrence's handsome face was stiff, and his smile was frozen as if he had been sprinkled with formalin.

However, it is admirable that even so, he still maintained the demeanor of a nobleman, stiffly retracted his extended right hand, and sat back like a robot.

Time passes by every minute.

The embarrassing air could not linger on the dining table.

It wasn't until the waiter brought the dishes to break the stiffness in the air.

Lawrence coughed, and continued with an unpleasant expression.

"Can I know why? I think my proposal is perfect."

"That's just for you," Lu Zhou said calmly. "I have always believed that there is no free lunch in the world. When we accept your investment, it means that we must give up some equity. Am I right? "

Lawrence: "Of course ... As you said, there is no free lunch in this world, but in addition to free lunch, there is a word of win-win! We can create greater wealth through cooperation!"

Lu Zhou: "Yes, then the star technology after our win-win, is it my star technology or your star technology? Is it a high-tech company in China or a high-tech company in the United States?"

"It ... it depends on how you define it," hesitated for a moment, Lawrence opened his mouth and continued, "how much does it really matter who belongs to you? The starry technology you have now may only be worth $ 100 billion, and I take it 100 billion financing for you, maybe you have less equity, but in fact you have more wealth than the original 100 billion US dollars, or even because our cooperation has doubled-"

"I think the question of who belongs is important."

Looking at Lawrence with disapproval on his face, he interrupted his land boat and continued in a serious tone.

"For me, being able to do whatever I want to do is what really matters, and that's why I started Starry Sky Technology and Jinling Advanced Institute. By contrast, more money and less money are secondary. Yes, so you tell me that you can turn 100 billion into 200 billion, or even double it ... what does it have to do with me? "

The atmosphere at the table was deadlocked.

After the silence lasted for a long time, Lawrence's shoulders suddenly loosened and leaned back in the chair.

"That's it ... I thought we could still cooperate, and you can see the benefits with your cleverness, but now it seems that I think too much unilaterally."

Lu Zhou smiled lightly and said, "I always thought that you Americans like to do things according to rules. Shouldn't you normally go to the CEO of Xingkong Technology to talk about this?"

Lawrence smiled slightly. "Rules? You have this idea because you haven't spent enough time in the United States and don't really understand the country."

Lu Zhou: "Oh?"

"Merchant ships traveling to and from the Golden Channel will more or less make guest appearances on pirates when necessary, whether for national or private interest. Colonists who set foot on the American continent are, in most cases, law-abiding 'good citizens' 'But the premise is that it is more favorable for them. If it is profitable, they don't mind meeting a robber, looting nearby indigenous people, and letting their wealth increase rapidly. "

"There is a manuscript on John Adams in the Flint Library that details his research on this cultural phenomenon. In my opinion, it is precisely because he knows Americans so well that he can see that hidden in the colonial He knows how to restrain those who are not subject to discipline and even become president.

"And about the core of this cultural phenomenon, I call it pirate culture."

Looking at Lawrence with a smile on his face, Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Surprisingly."

"What's unexpected?"

"In the history of Chinese civilization, we usually use pejorative terms such as 'pirates' or 'pirates' to refer to pirates ... In our culture, pirates are not something to show off or a glorious profession."

"It's also disgraceful in our culture. If it is found to be a pirate, it will be hanged by people in the port, dried in the air, and allowed to be eaten by crows ... but if it is found," Lawrence shrugged. Shoulder, continued, "One hundred percent profit, the cost is just a boat, enough for people to do a lot of things."

Looking at the silent Luzhou, Lawrence held the table with both hands and stood up gently.

"So much to say, I just want to answer your question. In order to achieve the purpose, the pirates are unscrupulous. I don't really want to be your enemy, or even accidentally end up being a chess player, but ... there is a kind of look in this world. The invisible potential is affected by many factors. "

"It ’s like the gravitation that pulls us back to the ground, continues the inertia of classic movement, and allows history to return to its original position, which is unstoppable by a certain individual or a certain company, even the country, In order to survive or even be rewarded by history, do you understand what I mean? "

Lu Zhou: "I don't understand. I believe in science and I don't believe in metaphysics."

Except when drawing a lottery.

Lawrence: "Well, just when I'm **** ... Are you really not thinking about it anymore?"

"No need."

"That's a pity," Lawrence sighed softly. "Maybe next time, you need to face not only small characters like Exxon Mobil and Tesla, but also a wound that even I myself feel hurt. Brain power. "

"is it?"

Lu Zhou smiled slightly.

"Then wait and see."

...

In the end, Lawrence left without having finished his meal.

Although he said he was full, according to Lu Zhou's observation, he didn't move the tableware a few times.

But to be honest, the taste of this restaurant is really good, if not unexpected, he will probably come back several times.

After finishing the meal without delay, just half an hour after Lawrence left, Lu Zhou also left the restaurant and headed for the car parked at the door ~ www.readwn.com ~ just when he pulled in the door Wang Peng, who was sitting in the driver's seat, had just finished making phone calls and tucked the phone back into his pocket.

"Where?"

"Go straight back to Zhongshan International."

"Ok."

The car is on the road.

Lu Zhou leaning on the seat, pulled out his mobile phone and opened it.

Just when he opened the list of likes, and was ready to find the article that he hadn't read yet, and continued to see what the owner of that article said, he found that the article was gone.

Huh?

Did you delete it yourself?

Damn, forgot the screenshot.

Shaking his head, Lu Zhou set the matter aside, shutting it down and opening the neckband.

Just as he was planning to interact with his fans for a while, a reminder of unread email popped up at the top of the screen.

Take a look, it was actually sent by the International Federation of Mathematicians.

Seeing this caller address, Lu Zhou was suddenly big.

In the past few days, he is having a headache. Should I go? IMU sent an e-mail. He can guess it almost without looking. Bacheng is urging himself to hang the papers to be discussed in the 60-minute report on the conference website. Go up.

When I opened the email and glanced at it, Lu Zhou suddenly thought about how to euphemistically express to the organizer that he wasn't ready to report the content, but he suddenly hesitated.

After being silent for a while, he looked up at Wang Peng who was driving in front, Lu Zhou said.

"Wang Peng."

"what happened?"

"In August, I might have to go to St. Petersburg."

"Okay, we will help you arrange ... By the way, has your research on the Riemann conjecture made progress?"

"No ... nothing to do with the report."

Wang Peng: "That's it?"

Putting down the phone, Lu Zhou said queerly.

"Go get the prize."
