Nan Yi knew nothing about Mitsui Yukiko's arrival as he was busy with his own affairs.
The lease contract for the Central Lenin Stadium has been signed, with an annual rent of 17 million rubles. This price is not cheap. According to the current official exchange rate of 0.9 rubles to 1 US dollar, it is exactly 18.88 million US dollars followed by a string of 8s.
The 17 million rubles are reflected in a 20-year lease contract, but what is not reflected is the hidden cost of $700,000 per year.
There is a clause in the contract that states the rent will increase by 5% every year. In fact, it is useless whether this clause is there or not. Once the ruble exchange rate drops, the rent in the contract will definitely not be renewed after one year.
However, the longer the lease period is, the better. You can slowly negotiate the rent when you renew the contract. The worst that can happen is that the rent will increase by a thousand times, which is just a drop in the bucket.
I will be so arrogant when I say it next year. I have a market. The site rental costs hundreds of billions a year. Guess how much I can earn in a year?
The people of Zimbabwe looked down on us and said, "Do you think this money is comfortable to use to wipe your butt? Come and weigh out two cents for me and take it home to try. If it works, come back and buy more."
[In 1991, the Zimbabwean dollar was only slightly lower than the British pound, but higher than the US dollar. Don’t laugh, they were once very wealthy.]
After signing the contract, Nan Yi chattered to Bao Huantou for a while, telling him his ideas, and then threw the rest of the hard work to him, regardless of whether he could shoulder the burden.
There is no need to worry about it. Moscow is in a barbaric era of light industrial products, a good era of barbaric survival of traders, and an era of opposition between having and not having. As long as the existing problems are solved, there is no need to worry about business.
Just like Friendship Leather City, as long as it operates for one or two months, the traders will see the benefits of moving in and people will naturally come one after another. Nan Yi just wants to move forward quickly during the vacancy period of Huaguo Building and doesn't want to wait slowly.
Stadiums are for retail purposes, so it is relatively easy to attract popularity. Some methods that may seem outdated and ridiculous in the next thirty years will be very effective at this time.
You can organize an event under any name, put ads on TV, radio, and newspapers, decorate the truck and make it into an event advertising truck, drive around Moscow for three days, shout through a megaphone that people can get three eggs as long as they go, regardless of whether they buy anything or not. In this way, the stadium will definitely be bustling during the event.
As long as people go there and see discounted things that are not available at other times, they will buy some. If they don’t buy anything, it’s okay, as the next time business comes, as long as Muscovites know that the stadium sells a lot of things and it becomes famous, business will naturally get better and better.
The key lies in whether Bao Huantou can fool people, because the premise of all this is that there must be traders setting up stalls. If there are only two or three small cats setting up stalls, then all the work will be in vain.
Obviously, Nan Yi does not need to worry about Bao Huantou. After getting together with Tu Yu, Bao Huantou was influenced by the other party's business philosophy. Now he not only does not feel tired, but also enjoys his work. Now he is begging others to move in. But he has already seen the light, the future of the inverted 7 head (the earth), and others are begging him for help.
As for what to do at the stadium, he already had some idea in mind, and it would kill several birds with one stone.
Bao Huantou called Tu Yu, and stayed in touch with him for a while, then asked Tu Yu for help. Many people in Vancouver wanted to leave, and they wanted to smuggle to Italy and Hungary via Moscow. It would be better not to go through so much trouble and just stay in Moscow. This was one option.
Secondly, Bao Huantou did not stay in Muxiyuan for nothing. Many leather jackets in Moscow originated from Muxiyuan. Anyway, people in Vancouver are used to having a shop in front and a factory in the back, so it would be better for the person in charge of the store to come to Moscow to prevent the middlemen from making a profit from the price difference.
If there are one or two strategies, we can definitely call over hundreds of people, not to mention thousands. And according to the style of Vancouver people, one person who makes money can lead a squad, a squad can lead a company, and a company can lead a combined brigade.
As long as people come, business will line up to do business. Before they come, the international students' business can make money first. After they come, the China Building and the market can make another money. Not to mention other logistical value-added services, they can just lie on the business owners like vampires and suck their fill.
As I said, as long as the profiteers can make money safely and steadily, Nan Yi, which serves them, will not have to worry about not making money. It is truly good for everyone, and we can all prosper together!
Victor Tsoi, a very famous rock singer of the Soviet revisionists, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the rock godfather of the Soviet revisionists. He died in a car accident last year. After his death, artists in St. Petersburg raised funds to build a memorial monument on his grave, and streets named after him appeared in various places.
In particular, a memorial wall for him, also known as the Wall of Crying, appeared at No. 2 Old Arbat Street, an art street in Moscow, and the wall was filled with fans' thoughts about him.
A company called "перемен" has just been established at No. 3 Old Arbat Street, which means "change" in Chinese. Victor Cui once wrote a song in the name of "Change", which is very popular.
There is no doubt that the reason why the Change Company is called Change and the office is located next to No. 2 is obviously to take advantage of the popularity.
The Transformation Company is a joint venture between Ikeda's trainee dispatch team and the talent team. Its main business is labor export, which includes positions such as dishwashers, factory workers, construction workers, models, mercenaries, etc.
In principle, the Transformation Company will only recruit those who are strong or fair-skinned and good-looking, but there are exceptions. In order to express the memory of Victor Cui and out of the love for the people in his house, anyone who has had the title of engineer or has a comparable level of engineering, like Victor Cui's father Cui Donglie, will be accepted by the Transformation Company out of consideration and will be given a humanitarian resettlement allowance, even if they are old and disabled, as long as they do not have Alzheimer's disease.
On the wall at the entrance of the Transformation Company, there is a bear skin with a line of Russian words "Времялечит" engraved on it. This is a proverb often said by Russians, which means that time can heal everything.
Nan Yi was sitting on the edge of the training ground of the Modan Barracks, holding an SKS in his hand. He was removing the bayonet from the gun and installing the Nan Yi Type 91 tactical rail (wire, tape, and pliers). A tactical flashlight was wrapped around the side of the gun head with tape, and then two holes were made near the ejection port, and a standard Mosin-Nagant scope was installed on it.
For the butt of the gun, he cut a piece of moose skin and glued it on to serve as a cheek rest. Without a suitable compensator and silencer, the gun head would not be pressed, and the grip was meaningless, so Nan Yi did not think of making one.
After about twenty minutes, a magic-modified SKS sniper rifle of the artifact level appeared in Nan Yi's hands. After getting familiar with it for a while, Nan Yi loaded the bullet into the chamber, raised the gun, and attacked the eight chest-shaped targets 200 meters away.
He charged and shot at the same time, rolling a few times in between. After finishing one round, he loaded the bullets for another round. When Nan Yi stopped less than five meters away from the target, he had already fired 16 magazines and only had four bullets left in the chamber.
There were eight targets, each with bullet holes arranged to form a Chinese character, a total of eight characters - good luck, chicken tonight.
Looking at his masterpiece with a smile, Nan Yi suddenly shouted "release" in one direction. As soon as he finished speaking, a pigeon cage was opened less than 30 meters away from him.
Nan Yi threw the SKS in his hand into the air, and with his left hand he wiped his chest, a tactical slingshot came into his hand. With his right hand he reached into the tactical bag on his waist, and a steel ball came into his fingertips. He loaded the bullet, pulled the slingshot, and aimed along the trajectory of the pigeon. Boom, he let go of his right fingers, and the steel ball turned into a bright spot and flew towards the pigeon.
Not far away, the tiger cub quickly pulled the fishing line in his hand, and the pigeon in the sky seemed to be hit and was pulled straight down. As he pulled, he praised loudly: "Accurate, so accurate!"
"Hahaha, the only people who can shoot eagles in the world are Wuwei and Yi'er."
Nan Yi laughed out loud but was actually very confused. He couldn't understand why the Slingshot Manual that he and Nan Wuwei learned at the same time was so easy to understand. Nan Wuwei could always hit the target even when riding a bicycle and could even shoot down flying birds from 20 to 30 meters away, but it didn't work for him?
After being depressed for a while, Nan Yi comforted himself and put all the blame on the slingshot. After feeling happy, Nan Yi thought about the SKS in his hand. He wanted to modify the SKS. First, the wooden buttstock should be removed and replaced with a plastic buttstock. Secondly, a small grip and tactical rail should be included.
Tactical rails are not high-end products. The company invested by Peace Dove, which loves soldiers like sons and is willing to spend money, has already developed the Adler rail. Not long ago, the patent right of the Adler rail was sold to Picatinny Arms Company, which has the right to conduct secondary research and development and name it by itself.
With the rail, various tactical accessories can be added, and the magazine also needs to be modified. Not only does it need to be changed into a detachable magazine, but it also needs to be expanded. The magazine capacity of 22+1 rounds is a number that Nan Yi prefers, as it must be different from the common practice, so that it can be used to trick experts who can count the number of bullets by listening to the sound.
Wanderer Firearms is also developing a "Special Forces Combat Assault Rifle". As the name suggests, this rifle is designed to meet the needs of special forces for special operations. According to the English abbreviation of "Special Operations Forces Combat Assault Rifle", once the research and development is successful, it will most likely be named the Adler-Scar assault rifle.
After being distracted for a while, Nan Yi took the gun and started playing extreme shooting again. He pulled the trigger and shot, and replaced the bullets when they were empty, without stopping for a moment. When he fired the 473rd round, Nan Yi felt that the rifle in his hand was no longer working. He could not predict the impact point, and the bullet went left and right. The barrel was basically broken.
Nan Yi couldn't help but praise the gun. It had been in the warehouse for nearly forty years, but it could still fire hundreds of bullets continuously at a high intensity. It had to be said that the quality control was really good when it was first produced.
After finishing the shooting, Nan Yi went to the logistics department.
Although the logistics department belongs to Friendship Leather City, each department is an independent company. The translation agency is Pony Translation Company; the international students are Polar Bear Study Abroad Consulting Company; the transportation is Desert Ship Company, which is divided into two businesses: freight and luxury car rental. The five Mercedes-Benz cars that Nan Yi asked Aksinya to buy were prepared for it; security is Command and Conquer Security Company; and sanitation is Sunflower Company.
At the same time, the office of Ganfeng Paging Station is also set up here, and all paging information will be transferred here.
Among these companies, Polar Bear is definitely the best in terms of financial prospects, but it is not very business-oriented. As long as you handle your relationship with the university well, you don’t have to worry too much about the specific business.
Relatively speaking, Xiaoma Translation's financial prospects are a little worse, but the future is very good. The company's rules and regulations are formulated by Nan Yi himself. No matter whether the translator is serving the residents or on an outbound mission, he must never disclose the "client's" secrets to the outside world.
However, at the same time, in order to facilitate commission bonus settlement and internal evaluation, the daily work of translators requires filling out detailed work sheets - why the customer service, the purpose of the client hiring the translator (who to meet, what transaction to discuss), where they went, etc., all need to be recorded one by one.
Xiaoma Translation is directly managed by Bao Huantou, but the specific business is handled by Zheng Daming, who just graduated from Moscow University. Zheng Daming was born and raised in Beijing and speaks fluent Beijing dialect. However, he is of Russian ethnicity and his ancestors intermarried with the Han people many times, so the ethnic characteristics of his family members have gradually faded. But when it comes to him, he has reverted to his ancestral roots and was born with blond hair and blue eyes. Everyone who sees him would say "Hala Shao".
Except for Zheng Daming who is a full-time translator, all other translators at Xiaoma Translation are part-time. They have arranged shifts and someone comes to work every day.
In addition to Polar Bear's office, Nan Yi came to Xiao Ma. As soon as he entered the office, he saw Zheng Daming and a gentle man in his early sixties talking there. Nan Yi leaned closer to listen. The man came here to find a part-time job and spoke fluent Russian.
Nan Yi was about to leave when Zheng Daming began to register the man's personal information, asking questions and writing them down, all in Russian.
The man’s Chinese name is Jin Qiushi, and his former workplace is the Soviet Academy of Sciences…
Hearing this, Nan Yi was reluctant to leave. He came to Zheng Daming and patted his shoulder, "Daming, I'll do it."
Zheng Daming was stunned and didn't understand what Nan Yi wanted to do, but he still gave his seat to Nan Yi.
Nan Yi sat down and smiled at Jin Qiushi in a friendly manner, "Hello, old comrade, my name is Nan Yi, I am the boss here, and I will take care of the following procedures."
"It's okay." Jin Qiushi replied in Chinese.
"It's like this. I just heard from an old comrade that you work at the Academy of Engineering. I need to explain that our translation work here is divided into two types: one is business translation. In layman's terms, we provide translation services so that our clients can have normal conversations with their clients;
The other type is professional translation, which you, as an old comrade, should have come across in your previous work. It requires the ability to translate professional terms and be able to understand highly professional materials.
Business translation is something that many people can do, so we won’t pay too much. Professional translation is different, because the work is difficult and most people can’t do it, so we pay a higher fee, starting at $5 per hour, and we will increase the fee appropriately depending on the difficulty of the work.”
Nan Yixian talked about the business classification model that had not yet been implemented in Xiaoma Translation, and then asked: "Old comrade, what field are you good at? Steel? Machinery? Chemistry?"
"It's all fine. My previous job was in physics, which is quite complicated and involves many fields," Jin Qiushi said with some reservation.
"Very good." Nan Yi wrote a line of words on the registration book in a pretentious manner, raised his head and said with satisfaction: "You can work part-time here for a few days out of the seven days a week. It would be best if you can be accurate to the time every day, so that it is convenient for us to arrange work."
"I'm retired now, and I'm free every day. I can work from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.."
Jin Qiushi was very impressed by Nan Yi's rigorous way of questioning, and he was happy to answer them one by one. Besides, he really needed a job. Before retirement, he and his wife had a monthly income of about 570 rubles, which was not low and was enough to maintain a relatively decent life for the two of them.
But after retirement, it was no longer possible. The combined pension of the two of them was less than 450 rubles, which was enough to barely maintain the living standard before retirement. However, the ruble's black market exchange rate fell sharply, and his wife needed to take Chinese medicine to treat the sequelae after a stroke.
However, traditional Chinese medicine was not covered by the Soviet revisionist medical insurance, so he could only buy it from profiteers at high prices. As the currency continued to depreciate, his pension became stretched, and after buying the traditional Chinese medicine, his life fell into hardship. He had no choice but to find a part-time job.
"Old comrade, besides Russian and Chinese, what other languages ​​do you know?"
"When I was young, I went to study in Paris and spent three years there. I speak French quite well," Jin Qiushi said modestly.
He was no more than 62 years old, probably born in 1929 or 1930. Judging from the time, he should have gone to study in Paris after 1945, most likely in 1948 or 1949.
So did he come here directly from Paris, or was he sent here in the 1950s after returning to his country, and then stayed here for some reason, got married and had children?
Nan Yi estimated that it was more likely that they were sent here in the 1950s. Many experts were sent here at that time, so it was normal that one or two of them were weak-willed and stayed behind instead of going back.
Nan Yi wrote something on the paper in a formal manner and pushed the registration book in his hand to Jin Qiushi. "Old comrade, please write down your home number and the number of an emergency contact."
After Jin Qiushi finished writing the phone number, Nan Yi said, "Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, old comrade, come over to take a written test. It will take about three hours. Regardless of whether you pass the test or not, you can get a reward of 15 US dollars."
"Okay, I'll take my leave first and come back tomorrow."
As soon as Jin Qiushi turned around, Nan Yi winked at the school beauty, and the school beauty understood.
A foreigner who can enter the Soviet revisionist Academy of Sciences, even if he is not an academician, must have strong skills in some aspects. I just don’t know what field Jin Qiushi is proficient in. If it is what the Nan family urgently needs, it would be great.
…
In the United States, when Nan Ruoyin entered Harvard in the fall of September, she naturally studied in the business school. However, in addition to studying economics, she also chose astrophysics out of her own interest and was very interested in this subject.
Not only did she establish good relationships with some astronomy professors at Harvard, she also went to the University of Iowa, which was quite strong in astrophysics, to attend classes, and got to know a university professor named Geertz who had profound attainments in astrophysics.
Today, Nan Ruoyin flew to Iowa City on her beloved Fox. When she arrived at the gate of the University of Iowa, she called Gertz. When she learned that he was participating in a seminar in the Van Allen Building and was allowed to attend as an auditor, she hurried to the conference room 309 that Gertz had told her about.
Arriving at the door of the conference room, Nan Ruoyin asked the bodyguard to stay outside. She quietly pushed open the door of the conference room, walked in with a hunched back, and sat down in the chair behind Gertz.
Everyone in the conference room was discussing plasma. Nan Ruoyin was very interested in this topic. She took out a recorder and a notebook, and started recording, listening, and taking notes.
“Plasma contains a large number of active particles, which frequently hit the surface of the treated material at high speed within a certain range, inducing physical and chemical reactions. The active particles bombard the surface to be cleaned, causing the pollutants to detach from the surface and eventually be taken away.
Under the action of the high-voltage electric field in the cavity, argon gas is ionized to produce a large number of argon ions and other active particles to bombard the metal surface to be treated, which can remove pollutants and oxide films on the metal surface at the nanometer level. At the same time, the micro-etching effect of plasma collision increases the specific surface area of ​​the metal and also improves its adhesion and hydrophilic properties to a certain extent.
The active groups of oxygen plasma in the atmosphere can react with organic matter on the surface of the treated object to produce carbon dioxide and water, achieving a deep cleaning effect. At the same time, more hydrophilic groups such as carboxyl and hydroxyl groups are produced on the surface to improve the hydrophilicity of the material.
From this, we can imagine the role of plasma in medicine. Plasma can deeply clean, efficiently sterilize, increase the specific surface area, and improve the adhesion and hydrophilicity of materials. It can be widely used in the modification of medical materials.
For example, the inner surface of disposable syringes, the improvement of the hydrophilicity of urinary catheters, the pretreatment of implants in the body, the hydrophilicity of ophthalmic contact lenses, the treatment of dental implants and orthotics in the oral department, etc. In addition, due to its efficient sterilization effect, medical plasma sterilizers can also be developed..."
Nan Ruoyin has a certain understanding of the theory of plasma. The professor whose name is still unknown is talking about low-temperature plasma. A laboratory funded by Rachel's Space Journey Laboratory is studying high-temperature plasma. The general direction of the research is controlled nuclear fusion, in preparation for flying out of the Milky Way, which is a relatively distant thing.
Low-temperature plasma is quite interesting. It sounds like it won’t be too difficult to transform it into product application. You can get in touch with this professor.
Nan Ruoyin was thinking about it in her mind when she suddenly saw a man wearing glasses walking in blankly. Behind him, Ge Wu followed in with his right hand reaching into his clothes.
"There's something wrong with this guy."
In a flash, Nan Ruoyin reached into her bag and quickly opened a secret button. A Rachel pocket pistol customized according to her characteristics was in her hand. She opened the safety in her bag and stared at the man.
The man slowly approached Nan Ruoyin, or to be exact, Gerz who was in front of Nan Ruoyin, with his eyes fixed on Gerz's forehead.
Suddenly, Nan Yi took out his hand, which had been in his pocket, and a Taurus M85 revolver also came out.
".38, 5 rounds."
A piece of information flashed quickly through Nan Ruoyin's mind.
"Stop, Hands Up!"
As soon as the man's gun handle emerged from his pocket, Ge Wu's pistol had already been pulled out of the holster under his armpit. He smoothly opened the safety, squatted down, aimed at the concave part of the man's neck and shoulder at an upward angle, and shot from this part. After two consecutive shots, the man had no chance to pull the trigger.
What's more, the man was a novice and his right index finger had not yet touched the trigger. Ge Wu was confident that the man could be shot dead if his finger moved slightly.
The sudden situation caused the two women in the conference room to scream, and the others were also stunned.
Nan Ruoyin cursed inwardly: "Don't just yell, jump up, run, or squat down. If you don't move, I can't move. I'm so unlucky to encounter something like this."
Nan Yi once told Nan Ruoyin that the gun in her hand was the last line of defense, and she should never show it unless absolutely necessary, and let the bodyguards solve the problem.
Gewu cannot shoot easily. The current situation still has room for improvement. Shooting the target from behind will get him into big trouble, with endless lawsuits and a high chance of losing.
Fortunately, when he was shouting, the bodyguards outside had already come in. Two of them had already taken aim at the target and were slowly approaching him. Now they just had to wait for him to turn around and make a shooting gesture before they could shoot.
The man with the gun is named Lu Gang, and he is here for revenge today.
The story began in 1963. That year, Lu Gang was born in Beijing. His father ran a private clinic and his mother was an employee of an auto parts company. The family was relatively wealthy.
Lu Gang has two older sisters. He is the youngest child in the family and a boy who is very much loved. Lu Gang's grades have been excellent since he was a child. He has shown a very strong talent in science. He also loves learning very much. On the basis of talent and hard work, Lu Gang was successfully admitted to the Physics Department of Peking University with high scores in the college entrance examination that year.
Speaking of which, Lu Gang is Nan Yi's junior, two years lower than Nan Yi.
After entering university, Lu Gang's extraordinary talent made him have no obstacles in his professional field, and he almost always ranked among the top. His outstanding professional ability still stood out in a school full of talented people, but his reputation was not very good.
Lu Gang regarded himself as a genius, looked down on others, and was very arrogant in dealing with people, which made his classmates feel that it was difficult to get along with him, so Lu Gang had very few friends. Moreover, Lu Gang's personality was very extreme, and he would always do some extreme things, so his classmates avoided him.
But for Lu Gang, interpersonal communication is not important on the university campus. He does not spend too much energy on it, but instead devotes himself to academic research.
In 1985, Lu Gang, who was only 22 years old, successfully passed the talent selection examination for the China-US Physics Exchange Program and was awarded the opportunity to study abroad at public expense. The destination of his study journey was the University of Iowa.
Lu Gang, who was pursuing a doctorate in physics at the University of Iowa, still had very serious character flaws, but with his high IQ and low EQ, he still managed to thrive at the University of Iowa with his outstanding professional abilities. His mentors liked him very much because he was an absolute genius.
During his study abroad, his main research direction was plasma, and his graduation thesis was also on the topic of plasma. At the same time, his supervisor was Professor Geertz.
In this era, there are no more than four hundred people in the entire United States who can study plasma, and Lu Gang is one of them. This is enough to prove that his talent in the field of physics is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
But soon, this arrogant young man met his lifelong rival - his roommate Shan Xinwei.
Like Lu Gang, Shan Xinwei is also a genius in the field of physics. After Lu Gang came to the University of Iowa, he also got the opportunity to study abroad at public expense and came here.
From then on, the competition between the two officially began.
Lu Gang and Shan Xinwei also received high scores of A in all subjects in the doctoral qualifying examination, and together broke the high score record of the Department of Physics at the University of Iowa.
Normally, geniuses would have a feeling of mutual admiration, but there was a hostility between the two of them. However, this was just Lu Gang's unilateral dissatisfaction with Shan Xinwei, because Shan Xinwei's arrival snatched away the attention of the mentors and made him even more popular with the mentors than him.
However, Lu Gang never looked for faults in himself. He felt that it was all because of Shan Xinwei's flattery and fawning that he was favored by his mentor.
Long-term resentment planted the seeds of resentment in Lu Gang's heart. When Shan Xin did not get the academic scholarship that Lu Gang had always dreamed of, Lu Gang's dissatisfaction took root in an instant.
What exactly happened in the scholarship dispute between Lu Gang and Shan Xinwei? Was it really as Lu Gang thought, that he was treated unfairly?
In fact, the truth is completely opposite to what Lu Gang said. Shan Xinwei was born in a rural area in Zhejiang Province. His family was poor. However, his parents were very supportive of Shan Xinwei's studies. He was also very competitive and was a rare genius.
In 1981, Shan Xinwei, who was only sixteen years old, was admitted to the junior class. In 1987, he successfully passed the exam and got the opportunity to study abroad at public expense.
From childhood to adulthood, Shan Xinwei has always been a child that made his parents worry-free. Although he is gifted, he is not proud and complacent, and he treats others humbly. He often receives scholarships to reduce the pressure of tuition fees.
In the eyes of his classmates, Shan Xinwei's character is very different from what Lu Gang thought. He is not a villain who only knows how to flatter, but a humble gentleman. He is loved by teachers not only because of his outstanding professional ability, but also because of his attitude of respecting teachers and friends.
Compared to Lu Gang, who is aloof and self-willed, Shan Xinwei is naturally liked by more people.
But Lu Gang didn't think so. He felt that he was upright and incorruptible, which was why he suffered prejudiced looks. Only he, a wise man, could see through Shan Xinwei's hypocritical face.
In April 1990, Lu Gang finally had to defend his graduation thesis, which he had spent so much effort to prepare. This time his goal was not only to graduate successfully and obtain a doctorate degree, but also to strive for the doctoral student academic award, because the prize money this time was US$2,500.
However, Lu Gang started off badly. Faced with the professors' series of questions, he was unable to answer them. His mistakes in the oral interview caused him to miss out on the scholarship, which was ultimately won by Shan Xinwei who performed normally.
Lu Gang, who had long harbored resentment towards Shan Xinwei, completely exploded. He felt that this was a conspiracy designed by Shan Xinwei and his tutor in order to snatch the scholarship from him.
Those who attended the graduation defense included doctoral supervisor Professor Geertz, assistant supervisor Smith, and department head Nick Holson.
As a result, Lu Gang ran to the office of the department head Nick Holson many times to seek justice for himself, saying that he should be the recipient of the scholarship.
Nick Holson always patiently explained to Lu Gang that he lost the scholarship due to mistakes in the oral interview and that the entire academic award judging process was fair and just and in compliance with regulations.
Naturally, Lu Gang did not believe what Nicholson said. He was so angry that he had to write a letter to Vice President Anne to appeal, but he received the same reply - there was nothing wrong with the award process.
Shan Xinwei not only received a scholarship, but also came to the University of Iowa later and obtained his doctorate degree earlier than Lu Gang. He also received an invitation to stay on at the school to teach, which was a huge blow to Lu Gang.
Lu Gang has always regarded himself as a genius and looked down upon other people. The appearance of Shan Xinwei made him feel a strong sense of crisis, but he never showed it because the two of them had always been evenly matched. This time, Lu Gang's self-esteem was severely crushed.
What made Lu Gang feel even more uncomfortable was that after he obtained his doctorate, his supervisor had no intention of keeping him to participate in postdoctoral research, so he had to go out and find a job on his own. Unfortunately, his job search was not smooth, and he was frustrated all the way, and his self-esteem fell to the bottom.
However, the tutor kept Shan Xinwei early on, and Shan Xinwei even collaborated with Professor Geertz and Professor Smith many times to publish papers, which were highly recognized by the academic community.
The indignant Lu Gang believed that his mentor was biased and that Shan Xinwei had merely deceived his mentor with sweet words. They were all birds of a feather, shameless scum, and were in collusion with each other.
Desperate Lu Gang lost hope in life. He even said that he had lost interest in physics. After obtaining a gun license through various means, he bought two pistols. One of them was in his hand, and the other was in another pocket and had not been taken out yet.
It seems like he won't have the chance to take it out again.
Lu Gang went crazy, completely crazy. He felt that he was a gentleman and that every wrong had its perpetrator. He only wanted to seek revenge on his enemies and did not want to implicate other people. But why? What was the reason?
Why is there someone here with a gun pointed at him?
Trapped in a self-enclosed world, Lu Gang quickly turned his spearhead towards Shan Xinwei, "Yes, it must be him. Shan Xinwei must have arranged this. He took away my scholarship. Not only did he take away my opportunity, he also wanted to kill me."
Lu Gang's eyes turned red as he glanced around the venue. His gaze, which could burn a person to death, soon burned onto Shan Xinwei's face. At this moment, the only people left in his world were himself and Shan Xinwei. He wanted to get rid of the other party, the enemy who had taken away everything from him. He wanted to eliminate harm for the people and uphold justice.
"Meanness is the passport of mean people, and nobility is the epitaph of noble people. Shan Xinwei, you are a flatterer and a hypocrite. You have brought shame to the Chinese people. You want to bully me. You have repeatedly slandered and bullied me. Today, on behalf of the King of Hell, I will come to you to claim your life. Shan Xinwei, give me your life!"
