In fact, Lu Zhou's worries were completely unnecessary.
In a big city like Shanghai, especially in the core area of the city, it was impossible to race.
Lu Zhou looked at Chen Yushan, who had a depressed look on her face because of the road conditions. He comforted her by telling her that she would have a chance next time.
However, what surprised him was that Chen Yushan had always given him the impression that she had a good upbringing and was an exceptionally smart and well-behaved girl. He didn't expect that she had a boyish side that he didn't know about.
Lu Zhou: "You like cars?"
Chen Yushan thought about Lu Zhou's question seriously. She then gently flicked her bangs and replied, "I'm lying.
"It would be a lie to say that I don't like him, but I'm not that obsessed with him either. Thanks to you, Star Sky Technology's performance is so good that I can make money with my eyes closed. Forget about buying a car, the salary is enough for me to retire early. "
She said the second half of the sentence in a joking tone.
Lu Zhou also smiled and joked.
"You're saying this all of a sudden? Are you planning to retire?"
"Why would I?" Chen Yushan smiled and said, "I don't work just to make money. Just like you, do you study academics to win awards? Will you stop after winning the Nobel Prize? "
Lu Zhou: "For me, the Nobel Prize is only the beginning, not the end."
Chen Yushan: "What about after the ILHCRC is built?"
Lu Zhou felt like she was asking this question in a serious tone. Maybe she was looking forward to an answer in her heart.
However, Lu Zhou didn't know what to say.
After thinking for a while, he gave an ambiguous answer.
"Maybe it will be my new starting point. I have a hunch that I will find something. Even though I don't know what it is, my academic intuition has always been very accurate."
"Yeah?" Chen Yushan didn't know if she heard the answer she wanted to hear, but she smirked and said, "So, people's pursuit is endless … We're here."
As they turned a corner, a building with a unique shape and a large area quickly came into view.
Next to it was the Oriental Pearl Tower, facing the Bund across the river. They could only see a milky white outer wall holding up two huge spheres, one big and one small. The glass on the spheres formed a world map, symbolizing Shanghai going global. It also symbolized that one day, this place would attract the attention of the entire world …
Lu Zhou looked at the luxury cars parked at the entrance of the Shanghai International Convention Center, the receptionists standing on the side of the road, and the balloons floating in the sky not far away. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and speak with emotion.
"This conference is quite impressive."
At least, it was more impressive than the ILHCRC unveiling ceremony.
Chen Yushan: "Style is a must. After all, the participants are large companies and investment banks from all over the world. If you want them to cooperate with you, you have to show that you're worthy of it. What's more, the AIIB and the Shanghai Economic Cooperation Organization are also involved in this summit, so it's not a big deal. "
"AIIB and Shanghai Economic Cooperation Organization?"
"That's right, apparently, the higher-ups plan to build a new economic corridor along the Southeast Asian cross-regional power grid. This will allow our companies to expand their market."
"What's the difference between this and the Silk Road?"
Lu Zhou didn't know much about politics, so he had only heard of the term "Silk Road."
"There are differences in the details, but there is no fundamental difference. It's all for the sake of common prosperity, and at the same time, to relieve external pressure. The conflict between the largest and second-largest economies is irreconcilable. Even though we're at a disadvantage in controllable fusion and aerospace, we still need to catch up in other areas … Let me stop the car."
Under the guidance of the staff, Chen Yushan successfully parked the car in an empty parking space. She finally had a chance to show off, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows at Lu Zhou, who was sitting next to her.
Lu Zhou didn't know what to say when he saw how proud she was.
There's such a big empty parking space, and there's no other cars on either side, I can do it too …
However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lu Zhou decided not to complain about her poor driving skills. He followed behind her and walked toward the conference center …
…
No wonder this was a summit jointly organized by the AIIB and Shanghai Economic Cooperation Organization.
Whether it was from afar or up close, this Pan-Asian High-Tech Innovation and Investment Summit was extraordinary.
In front of the main entrance of the conference center, there was a crowd of people coming and going. However, when Lu Zhou stepped into the conference center, he felt like he was suddenly enlightened.
The huge convention center easily accommodated all the invited participants of the summit. Objects that looked like works of art were displayed throughout the hall, including the small collider model contributed by the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as well as the external structure model of the "Fuxi reactor" displayed by industrial giants like Eastern Electric Power. It was like a miniature Expo.
Large orders worth tens of billions of yuan were being exchanged here, and the topics discussed here were all topics that would really affect the future direction of the world.
In contrast, the macroeconomics forum that he previously participated in was nothing compared to this international summit that had an influence that covered the entire Asia and radiated to the world.
Lu Zhou said goodbye to Chen Yushan and planned to walk around by himself before deciding on a place to meet up. However, an old man in a suit with neatly combed hair walked toward him with a smile on his face.
"You're Academician Lu, right? Nice to meet you. "
"That's me …" Lu Zhou shook hands with this unfamiliar old man. He thought carefully for a while, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before. He said, "You are?"
"President of the AIIB, Gong Weiqi." The old man smiled and said, "This is my business card. Just call me by my name or Mr. Gong."
President of the AIIB!
Lu Zhou took the business card and had a surprised expression on his face.
First of all, he was surprised that he was recognized as soon as he came in. Second of all, he didn't expect that the person who came out to greet him was the boss of the summit organizer.
Lu Zhou put away the business card and looked at the old man apologetically.
"I'm sorry, I don't have a business card."
The old man smiled carelessly. He waved his hand and said, "It's fine, Academician Lu is a scholar. Unlike businessmen like us, we don't need to use some small business cards to make people remember us. You are a business card, representing the image of our country's young researchers and even the academic community. I almost forgot to say, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this summit! It was our negligence that we didn't send you an invitation in advance, I hope you won't take it to heart. "
"You're exaggerating, I just came here casually, don't take me so seriously."
Lu Zhou, who was a little embarrassed by the old man's enthusiasm, couldn't help but feel emotional.
No wonder he's the president of the AIIB.
Even though he didn't understand the specific rules of this organization, in his impression, most people who dealt with banks were more talkative.
If President Gong knew what Lu Zhou was thinking, he would probably vomit blood.
However, Lu Zhou obviously wouldn't say what he was thinking.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, President Gong offered to take him on a tour of the convention center.
Lu Zhou, who also had this plan, obviously wouldn't refuse when someone was willing to lead the way.
After politely declining a few words, seeing that President Gong really didn't seem to be busy, he didn't stand on ceremony and gladly accepted his suggestion.
As the two walked, Lu Zhou asked some questions about the summit and whether there was anything worth paying attention to in the conference center. President Gong also answered them one by one.
Suddenly, Lu Zhou, who was walking around a corner, noticed that there was an Oriental Pearl TV Tower that was about the height of three people at a booth in the conference center.
To be precise, it was a miniature metal model of the Oriental Pearl TV Tower.
In front of the booth, a few foreigners with European faces were standing next to this metal model. They exclaimed in disbelief while fiddling with something that looked like a measuring instrument in their hands and taking pictures of this model.
"That is … the Oriental Pearl TV Tower model?"
Lu Zhou glanced at the sign next to the booth, then looked at the arrogant staff standing next to the model. He couldn't help but have a strange expression.
Shenyang Machine Tool?
What is the relationship between Shenyang Machine Tool and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower?
When President Gong heard Lu Zhou's words, he guessed what he was thinking, so he spoke with a smile.
"Yes, but to be precise, this isn't a simple Oriental Pearl TV Tower. It's built with the latest high-precision five-axis linkage machine tool of Shenyang Machine Tool Group in a 1: 1 ratio. It's said that the processing precision has reached 0.001um. Even though I don't know if it's true, it has reached the top of the world! "
Lu Zhou: "Who are those people?"
President Gong: "They are engineers from Siemens. Not only are Asian companies attending this summit, but European companies and North American companies are also attending. Many internationally renowned industry giants have sent representatives."
Lu Zhou: "…"
When he heard that it was Siemens, he suddenly had an embarrassed look on his face.
He still remembered that in order to process the mold for the space shuttle, Xiao Ai secretly bought two Siemens machine tools from Europe and compiled the control program himself. The name of the two machine tools … seemed to be the latest high-precision five-axis linkage machine tool.
Later, when the machine tools arrived at the Haizhou port, the customs officers were terrified, and they immediately reported it to their superiors. Then, somehow, the people at Shenyang Machine Tool found out about it. Chief Engineer Yang, who was "determined to eat machine tools", personally came over and bought one from him.
Now, it seemed like this machine tool was worth it.
Shenyang Machine Tool completely digested the Siemens high-precision five-axis linkage machine tool technology. They even brought the finished product to the conference center, which shocked the Siemens engineers.
Especially the non-ferrous metal spire, the surface smoothness actually reached a mirror-like Ra 0.001μm! Even the Mikroturn series of lathes, the top-of-the-line horizontal ultra-precision lathes of Brethren Hambraker Company, could barely achieve this level of precision.
When did China's high-precision machining technology become this nutty?!
This was too horrifying!
Lu Zhou looked at the Siemens engineers, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He suddenly felt like he had wronged them.
They probably didn't realize that they were the ones who made the most out of this.
The only innovation that Shenyang Machine Tool made was that they didn't use Siemens' system at all. Instead, they used the machine tool control system provided by Star Sky Technology, which maximized the performance of the machine tool …
Lu Zhou sighed softly. He couldn't bear to look away as he spoke emotionally.
"… The student has surpassed the master. It's a good thing, a good thing."
Who cares!
I'm not the one who reverse engineered it, and I'm not the one who came all the way here to show off.
That old man, Yang Zhongquan, didn't even think that this pretentious act was embarrassing, so what was he embarrassed about?
President Gong, who was standing next to him, paused for a second. He didn't know the inside story, so he didn't really understand what Lu Zhou was saying. However, he still nodded.
"Yeah, Academician Lu is right, our industry is —"
"Let's go to the next place."
President Gong paused for a second and nodded.
"Oh, okay …"
(My schedule has been a bit messy these past few days, so I posted the first two chapters in advance. I feel like I should catch up on sleep.)
