Chapter 91 Yes, and more than one
Xu Zhou's series of thoughts only took a few seconds.
Xu Zhou didn't have time to think about it anymore and quickly called Xu You back.
Xu You had been waiting for Xu Zhou to call back, so the call was connected after only a few rings.
"Son, what happened?"
"Ah, nothing much, just want to consult you on some issues."
Hearing that Xu You was in good condition, Xu Zhou felt relieved.
And Xu Zhou's guess just now is getting closer and closer to the truth.
At this moment, Xu Zhou felt relieved.
I have raised pigs for so many years... no, my son, he has finally learned how to eat cabbages.
But...it can't be...has it really developed to that point?
But it doesn't matter. Based on Xu Zhou's understanding of Xu You, Xu You has a strong sense of safety and will not do such dangerous things.
Thinking of this, Xu Zhou smiled and asked, "Do you have a girlfriend? Dad has a lot of emotional experience, so feel free to ask if you have any questions. Of course, don't tell your mom this. After meeting your mom, I am still very loyal."
Xu You couldn't help but curl his lips when he heard this.
I just want to ask Xu Zhou about the issue of aluminum atomic clusters.
I didn't expect Xu Zhou to think in other ways.
Are those love affairs as interesting as studying and scientific research?
"Yes, I have, and there's more than one." Xu You said angrily.
After hearing Xu You's words, Xu Zhou's mood became polarized.
Originally Xu Zhou was still guessing which one it was.
Unexpectedly, this is not a multiple-choice question.
My son Xu You is indeed as charming as I was when I was young.
However, this behavior is highly undesirable.
Even though the man is too charming, there is nothing we can do about it.
But you still need to be more specific.
"Why are there more than one? Who are they?"
"Well... physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, computers. Yes, and philosophy."
Xu Zhou: “…”
There was silence for several seconds on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business. Dad, have you ever worked on materials for aluminum clusters? I have a research project that will be related to this."
"I have made some, but they have no practical value, so I stopped studying them. Why, are you starting to study materials now?"
Xu You did not directly answer Xu Zhou's question, but continued to ask:
“How many aluminum clusters have you made?”
"The most we have done is with 13 aluminum atoms. If there are more, it is theoretically possible, but it is not very meaningful."
In Xu You's theory, an aluminum atom cluster of 13 aluminum atoms is not easy to achieve superconductivity at higher temperatures.
But if we can achieve more than 30, there is a greater possibility that the critical temperature of superconductivity will be increased a lot.
"Then Dad, can you help me make some aluminum clusters with a larger number of atoms?"
Hearing Xu You's words, Xu Zhou couldn't help but laugh.
“It’s possible, but it requires scientific research funding.”
"How much? Are tens of thousands enough?"
"Are you sending away beggars? How many professors would take on a project worth tens of thousands of dollars? You look down on me, your father, too much."
After all, Xu You had never been involved in scientific research funding, and he thought that if it could be solved with a few tens of thousands of yuan, he would just pay for it out of his own pocket.
But judging from Xu Zhou's attitude, Xu You obviously underestimated the price of general scientific research projects.
"Okay, I'll think about it. Finally, let me ask you one more question. Which one is better, Ji University's materials science or Ningjiang University's materials science? Be objective and don't bring your own opinions into it."
"Let me tell you this. Without the added strength of Ji University, the ranking of Ji University's materials major in the country would have to drop a few places. Although Ningjiang University's overall strength is a little worse, materials is still a top major. Your father, I still have a certain status in China's materials industry."
"Okay, I understand. I'll study it later and contact you."
"No problem. Just leave me a message if you have anything to say. I'll get back to you after I see it. Also, don't just study and do research every day. University life is very colorful. Take some time to hang out with girls... Hello? Hello..."
After finishing the call with Xu Zhou, Xu You finally had a clue in his mind.
If the Materials Department of Jida University has really not done any relevant research.
Then Xu You can also use his own connections to make Qiao Sen and Xu Zhou reach a cooperation.
As for the specific forms of cooperation and the scientific research funding involved.
It’s not something Xu You needs to worry about.
Afterwards, Qiao Sen contacted Xu You and told him the results of his consultation.
"I asked professors at the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Jilin University, but they haven't done any research on aluminum clusters and can't provide any specific information. If that doesn't work, I'll ask material experts from other schools to see if I can get more professional information."
Seeing that Qiao Sen had not made any progress, Xu You simply decided to move Xu Zhou out.
"Teacher Qiao, this is what happened. My father is a professor at the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Ningjiang University. I asked him about this and he said he had done research on aluminum clusters before and was also able to prepare aluminum cluster materials with a larger number of atoms. If you're willing, I can have my father talk to you about this."
Xu Zhou knew that under normal circumstances, this kind of thing might need to be avoided.
But Xu You also believed that Qiao Sen must trust him.
And Xu Zhou has indeed made considerable achievements in the field of materials.
"Really? That's great. Otherwise I would have to ask someone to make the contact. Since your father is a materials expert, it would save me a lot of trouble. Give me your father's contact information so I can talk to him when I have time."
Qiao Sen didn't doubt it.
After all, Xu You would never make up a theory to defraud the research funds of Qiao Sen Laboratory.
After that, Qiao Sen and Xu Zhou got in touch and discussed the cooperation.
Through telephone communication, both parties could feel that the other party was indeed an expert in their respective industries, and the communication process was very pleasant.
In the end, Qiao Sen successfully established a preliminary cooperation plan with Xu Zhou.
Of course, although Qiao Sen agreed readily, he did not put all his hopes on Xu You.
Xu You's project is just one of Qiao Sen's options.
Even if Xu You's theory cannot be verified, Qiao Sen can use this batch of aluminum atomic cluster materials to conduct other research.
In the field of aluminum atomic clusters, there are still many areas worth exploring in condensed matter physics.
After that, the two laboratories formally signed a project cooperation agreement, and Xu Zhou also began the preparation of aluminum atomic clusters.
Because the preparation of aluminum atomic clusters would take time, Qiao Sen decided to let Xu You enter the laboratory first to learn some knowledge about superconducting experiments.
