Expedition to Europe

Chapter 972: The Corner That Cannot Be Digged Down

Lan Fang's current scientific researchers are divided into two categories, one is the Chinese trained in the Renault factory during the Foreign Legion period, and the other is the naturalized Westerners.

Among these Westerners, Germans are the main ones. After the World War, Lan Fang almost brought all the German scientific research talents to Lan Fang, which strongly supported Lan Fang's national construction.

Qin Zhiyuan has a deep understanding of the saying that education is the foundation of a century-long plan, so when he started to have some extra money, Qin Zhiyuan raised the importance of national education to an unprecedented level.

It was in this context that Einstein came to Lan Fang from Germany.

Strictly speaking, Einstein was a scientist, but at the same time he was also a university professor. Lan Fang brought Einstein to Lan Fang in the name of academic exchange, and then there was a series of follow-ups. Some of Lan Fang's methods were a bit shameful, so Qin Zhiyuan attached great importance to William III's meeting with Einstein.

Einstein's status in the science and technology community is unquestionable. If William III and Einstein reach an understanding, it will cause irreparable and significant losses to Lan Fang.

More importantly, more than half of Lan Fang's current scientific researchers are from Germany. If Einstein decides to change his nationality back to Germany, it may cause an "avalanche effect", which Qin Zhiyuan absolutely does not want to see.

After learning that William III went to Lan Fang Imperial University, Qin Zhiyuan immediately drove to the Imperial University.

In front of Qin Zhiyuan, William III can't poach.

Don't think that Lan Fang and Germany have a good relationship and this kind of thing will not happen. From the standpoint of national interests, there is nothing that cannot be done. Qin Zhiyuan can cheat, and William III will also put down his pride.

Lan Fang Imperial University is located on an island near Coconut City. The area of ​​this island is about ten square kilometers. There are lush vegetation, white sandy beaches, warm sea breezes and bright sunshine on the island. After the Lan Fang government set the address of the Imperial University on this island, the island was immediately named "Hanlin Island".

Hanlin!

From this word, we can see Qin Zhiyuan's expectations for Lan Fang Imperial University.

Lan Fang has been established for five years, but the construction of the Imperial University has been ongoing. From the initial wooden houses to the current reinforced concrete permanent structure, the Imperial University has more and more buildings, more and more functions, and more and more detailed classification of departments. The only thing that remains unchanged is the school motto of "Self-improvement and Morality".

That's right, Qin Zhiyuan directly transplanted the school motto of Tsinghua University. He had no time to think of a better one. Qin Zhiyuan spent all his time on national construction.

The efforts over the past five years have yielded results. Now Lan Fang Imperial University has six branches, namely the School of Education, the School of Health, the School of Physics, the School of Chemistry, the School of Architecture, and the School of Military Affairs.

You read it right, there is no School of Literature.

Qin Zhiyuan has always believed that literature is used to cultivate sentiment and enrich spiritual life. There is no need to set up a separate branch for this purpose. The most likely result of setting up a separate branch is to cultivate a group of old scholars. Lan Fang does not need such old scholars. Lan Fang needs doers.

Of course, the absence of a college of literature does not mean that Qin Zhiyuan does not attach importance to the inheritance of Chinese studies. All students of Lan Fang Imperial University have a Chinese studies appreciation course, which is a compulsory course. If this course cannot be passed, then the students will never graduate from the Imperial University.

After Einstein came to Lan Fang, he would come to the Imperial University Physics Branch to teach three days a week, which was an important part of Einstein's work.

Lan Fang's scientists are not pure scientists. Everyone has a teaching task, including Einstein, Sandy, Fritz Haber and other "Dynamite Award" winners. They all have teaching tasks. While conducting research work, they must also undertake teaching tasks and cultivate the next generation of talents for Lan Fang's scientific research. This is one of the main jobs of these scientists.

Qin Zhiyuan attaches great importance to "inheritance", not only the inheritance of knowledge, but also the inheritance of attitudes towards work, scientific research, and even life. Qin Zhiyuan believes that this is one of the necessary virtues of mankind. Only by passing on the spirit of the predecessors from generation to generation can Lan Fang have a continuous source of original power.

When Qin Zhiyuan saw William III and Einstein, they were walking on the lawn in front of the library of the Physics Branch. It was a sunny afternoon. It was still a little hot in September in Lanfang. There were not many people on the lawn, and even William III's entourage was not around.

William III and Einstein obviously did not take the violent sunshine to heart. They walked and talked, and their expressions were a little solemn.

"Aren't you hot? I say William, if you can bear it, you should also consider the professor's feelings. If the professor gets heatstroke, I will hold you responsible." Qin Zhiyuan was half joking and half alert.

Seeing Qin Zhiyuan coming, William III had a helpless action of rubbing his forehead, and Einstein's eyes were obviously relieved and grateful.

The reactions of these two people are a bit interesting.

"What are you talking about? If it's convenient, can I join?" Although Qin Zhiyuan asked in a questioning tone, everyone could hear that it was not to be refused.

"Your Majesty, of course you can join. In fact, we are discussing the 'Nazi Party'." Einstein has nothing to hide.

"You came at the right time. I also need your advice." William III adjusted his mood and treated Qin Zhiyuan with a normal attitude.

"The Nazis are a cancer and must be resolutely contained." Qin Zhiyuan decisively knocked the Nazis to the bottom in one sentence: "It is undeniable that the Nazi Party can indeed unite people's hearts in some aspects, but its negative effects are far greater than its positive effects. If Germany allowed the Nazis to spread, Germany would suffer a stain that could never be erased."

"Nazi" is a proper noun, which originated from the German Workers' Party established in Germany in 1919, referred to as the "Nazi Party".

Just like the original history, Germany's current economic situation is very bad, so the words advocated by the "Nazi Party" are very popular in Germany. Even in some countries outside Germany, the "Nazi Party" also has many sympathizers. This is objective helped the spread of the "Nazi Party".

The current leader of the "Nazi Party" is Mustache. However, compared with the original history, Mustache's situation is a bit difficult. After all, William III has much stronger control over Germany than the previous Weimar government. Mustache's current career It's a bit of a struggle.

"That's what I said, but now that the Nazi Party has appeared, it has the value of existing. Germany is in a critical period of recovery. We must gather all the forces we can use." William III agreed with part of Qin Zhiyuan's words.

Just when William III finished speaking, Qin Zhiyuan keenly noticed that there was imperceptible disappointment in Einstein's eyes, which made Qin Zhiyuan feel calm.

Although Einstein became a Lanfang nationality, Einstein must still have a fondness for Germany in his heart. After all, Einstein is a German. For some reason, Einstein can become a nationality of other countries, but for Germany, Einstein must still have feelings.

William III had a point in saying this. After all, it was with William III's connivance that Mustache could "carry forward" the Nazi Party step by step. William III seemed to be defending Mustache, but at the same time he was also defending William III. Defend yourself.

"Well, I have no intention of interfering in Germany's internal affairs. I can only say that I hope you can keep your eyes open and take back power when necessary." Qin Zhiyuan did not want to get entangled in this issue. After expressing his attitude, Qin Zhiyuan Turning to Einstein, he smiled and said, "Professor, why don't you show me around your laboratory?"

After Einstein became a Lanfang citizen, the Lanfang government gave Einstein the same treatment as Nikola Tesla, which made Einstein very grateful.

Qin Zhiyuan asked Einstein to take Qin Zhiyuan for a tour, which also meant that William III would give up.

Germany's current economic difficulties mean that scientists like Einstein cannot enjoy a good life in Germany. The treatment Lanfang gave Einstein was something that William III could not afford, so Qin Zhiyuan wanted William III to see Lanfang. How Fang treated scientists like Einstein would make William III accept all this sadly.

Einstein probably didn't understand what Qin Zhiyuan meant. Even if Einstein did, he probably wouldn't do that. That would be too nouveau riche: "Your Majesty, there are only cold machines in my laboratory. I guess you are not interested, so why don't I take your two majesties to visit our library, which is definitely the pride of our Imperial University."

Einstein was right when he said that a rich material life does not give people much sense of superiority, but a substantial spiritual civilization will make people feel more satisfied.

"Very happy." Perhaps he had really let go, and William III had returned to the personable William III.

"This is the library of our School of Physics, with a total area of ​​60,000 square meters, a total library area of ​​25,000 square meters, 2,000 reading seats, and a collection of 4 million books -" Einstein said with a With a proud expression, he began to introduce the library, his tone full of pride.

"Wait a minute, I remember that there are less than 300 students in the Physics Department. Is it necessary to build such a large library?" Qin Zhiyuan is no stranger to the scale of Imperial University, and he doesn't feel it is a waste, but is just a little curious.

"Your Majesty, that's the data before August. After the start of the summer vacation, the Department of Physics of Imperial University already has 1,100 students, and it will increase year by year. Now I guess you feel that it is a bit too much, but in two years at most, here The seats will be very popular, and it is estimated that the lawn in front of the door will be full of people." Einstein was a bit teasing, but Qin Zhiyuan was not too embarrassed. On the contrary, he smiled happily.

It's a good thing to have more students, Qin Zhiyuan is willing to spend more money.
