Chapter 323: Spring break

Time passed day by day, and soon entered April.
With the arrival of the spring break, students who have been squeezed for one semester by heavy academic studies finally ushered in a short liberation. In this less than two weeks vacation, they can enjoy life well without thinking about academic matters.
Even the busy Princeton campus has a lot of light colors.
"I plan to go to Fort Lauderdale. If you are free, you can go with me." Brother Luo, who was sitting at the dining area on the first floor of the Princeton Institute of Higher Education, offered an invitation to Lu Zhou.
The sea and beach are usually the first choice for spring break activities. Compared to Hawaii, Fort Lauderdale is relatively affordable. Since 1934, it has become a mecca for spring breaks in American universities. It is overcrowded at this time of the year, so that later it is not only American college students, but also overseas tourists who come here.
However, this is a strange place name for Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou hesitated for a moment and asked, "Where is Fort Lauderdale?"
"In Florida, Venice in North America ... You don't even know where Fort Lauderdale is? How have you been here this year?" Luo Wenxuan looked at Lu Zhou in disbelief.
Lu Zhou made a helpless expression.
"My PhD was read-only for a few months, and it was over before I had time to pass the spring break."
The atmosphere was a bit subtle and awkward at once.
Luo Wenxuan coughed softly: "Can we not mention the doctoral degree?"
Lu Zhou: "... Uh, sorry."
He almost forgot that when he was undergraduate, Brother Luo was studying for a doctorate with Edward Witten. Now that he has received his doctorate, Brother Luo still hasn't graduated successfully ...
It is really not good to bring up such sad things on this happy day.
However, Brother Luo's mental endurance is still quite strong. After all, in the Princeton Institute of Higher Education, where the world's most talented brains are gathered, it is impossible to stay alone without a strong heart.
After all, there is a gap between genius and genius.
Soon after adjusting his mood, Brother Luo continued to return to the previous topic and continued to talk about the topic of spring break.
"Spring break is a good chance. Or do you plan to be single for a lifetime? If you don't know how to chase a pretty girl, I can teach you how to make friends, which is actually very easy."
Lu Zhou glanced at him somewhat unexpectedly, but the focus was not on the technique of chatter, but ...
"Are you going to change your girlfriend?"
"Actually, it's changed." Luo Wenxuan coughed slightly, with an expression that seemed a bit unwilling to discuss the topic. "The reason is a bit complicated, so don't ask."
Lu Zhou: "..."
If he remembered it correctly, around February, at the party celebrating the Adams Chemistry Awards, the guy took his girlfriend in front of him.
It was less than two months before returning to singleness.
The speed of changing his girlfriend is almost faster than the speed of his dissertation.
"That's the rhythm of life here, you have to learn to adapt," Luo Wenxuan explained, noting Lu Zhou's speechless expression, "If you often contact the circle of international students, you will find that this is actually quite ordinary."
"That's the problem," Lu Zhou sighed, folding the sandwich's wrapping paper into a small stack and dropping it on the plate. "I often feel out of step with you because I'm too disciplined."
Upon hearing this, Luo Wenxuan was unhappy.
"You're saying it as if I didn't have a fight."
Lu Zhou: "Isn't it?"
Luo Wenxuan: "..."
...
In fact, Lu Zhou was still curious about what Brother Luo said.
Is Fort Lauderdale during the spring break really the same as filmed in the film, full of youthfulness and acrid wine?
If nothing else, he wouldn't mind going there with Brother Luo.
However, the premise is that if you are not busy ...
On the first Saturday in April, Lu Zhou also gave his students a week long vacation. After more than three months of intense study, they also need time to rest to adjust their status.
But for Lu Zhou himself, there is no such leisure.
On the first day of the spring break, he took a plane and went to San Francisco on the west coast to participate in a seminar on organic chemistry organized by the American Chemical Society.
There he will take away the glory that belongs to him, and leave a speech about 60 minutes or so.
Although the scale of this conference is not as large as that of the top conference MRS conference in the field of materials science, its influence is not inferior and it is one of the top conferences in the field of organic synthesis.
After all, the influence of the American Chemical Society is much greater than that of the Materials Society. The former is more than a century older than the latter, and it has a negligible influence on industry and even politics.
After hours of flight, the plane landed at San Francisco's airport.
Picking him up at the airport was Salot, a once-downcast Cornell University professor who now looks radiant.
An ironed suit with a vintage oil head and a beard on his face have been shaved a lot, and Jingqi doesn't know how much better than a few months ago.
I have to say that the dissertation is the life of a scholar.
The weight of a "Science", although not enough to completely change the status quo ~ EbookFREE.me ~, but also somewhat restored his position at Cornell University.
If it was said that when he first sold the research institute, he still had some embarrassment in his mind, and he often asked himself the question, "Is it really worth it?"
Now, he has no doubt at all how smart he made his choice.
"Welcome, my dear friend, welcome to San Francisco!" He greeted with a smile on his face, and Sarott extended his right hand across the distance. "Congratulations, Roger Adams Award, you have entered Stockholm again. Took a step. "
Shaking hands with Sarote, Lu Zhou joked: "I've been to Stockholm once."
"Then go again, this time will be Nobel's palace!" Zarrot said with a bright smile. "I have heard this from a familiar professor, and the award committee is discussing whether to give modified PDMS materials. Nominate. "
Lu Zhou smiled and didn't speak.
Sarote's optimism is as unreliable as his scientific intuition, especially when he does not blush when quoting words that others have never said at all, which makes it difficult to distinguish between true and false.
In addition, if the Nobel Prize is so easy to win, it will not be regarded as a crown of science.
Not to mention, even the father of lithium-ion batteries, the legendary "good enough" Mr. John B. Goodenough, has been in a line for more than 30 years, and has not yet arrived. It is difficult to take off this crown in one fell swoop on the technology of lithium anode material.
However, Lu Zhou was not in a hurry.
He is still young and has a long research career.
Whether it is a modified PDMS material or HCS-1 material, or the Adams Chemistry Award in front of him, it is just the beginning for him ...
