Founded in 1923, Time is one of the first newsweeks to appear more than half a century ago. It has a considerable influence both in North America and internationally.

Just as Time has rated itself, its reports on various fields are not specifically written for experts in the field, but for all readers who want to understand the world through the window of Time.

After receiving the business card from the lady's hand, Lu Zhou turned to the front.

Under the iconic word "time", her name Julie Drake is printed.

I thought about it, Lu Zhou said.

"If you don't have to delay for a long time."

Julie grinned and said: "Do not worry, this will not delay you for a long time."

After getting the consent of Lu Zhou, the interview soon began.

Turning on the recorder, Julie asked the first question.

"Most of the public's understanding of you comes from the Goldbach Conjecture and the Crawford Award. You think you are a mathematician. Can you ask what prompted you to look at chemistry?"

The first question was very interesting. Lu Zhou also thought about it for a while before giving his answer.

“The public likes to label a stranger based on their common sense, which helps them to understand quickly. However, in fact, this kind of labeling is often one-sided. The more research related to the frontier, the more It is difficult to classify a problem like primary education."

"For example, my research on modified pdms film is undoubtedly a material science problem, but also an organic chemistry problem, and it involves the analysis of its physical and chemical properties, and it is also a problem of condensed matter physics. I use the computational modeling method myself, which can also be a mathematical problem."

Julie asked: "So why is the battery?"

Lu Zhou smiled and gave a definite answer with a half-joking tone: "Probably... because my phone is always out of power at critical times, so I want to make it more standby time." a little longer?"

After hearing this answer, Julie and her assistant couldn't help but bend their corners.

After a pause, she continued to ask: "Is this really the reason?"

Lu Zhou: "If you want me to think about a reason, I can only think of this. However, in fact, many of my colleagues at the Institute of Advanced Studies are engaged in a research work and there is no special motivation. If you have to say it, because this problem is there, and it just caught my interest."

Julie’s eyes lit up: “So, do you think interest is the best mentor?”

Lu Zhou nodded: "Okay."

Turning the notes that I took with me to the next page, Julie continued.

“The next question may be sensitive. Don’t know if you suggest it, talk about issues related to personal assets?”

Lu Zhou thought about it and said, "It depends on the specific problem, but I hope that it will not involve a specific amount..."

Until now, Star Tech has made a lot of money for him, and he is not very sure about himself.

After all, for him, the string in the bank card is a tool to help him achieve his purpose, not the purpose itself. Unless the research requires a lot of money, in general he rarely pays attention to the company.

Julie smiled thoughtfully: "Reassured, the interview will of course not involve this content."

Suddenly, she continued.

"Because of the patents of modified pdms film, Star Technology has earned hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue for you. It is foreseeable that the birth of lithium-sulfur batteries will also make you one of the biggest beneficiaries."

“There is no doubt that you have lived a life that all researchers are envious of, and you can research your own topics of interest without worrying about research funding. Many people use their fame to describe your research career, then please ask How do you rate yourself?"

This question is not very good to answer, Lu Zhou also thought for a long time.

After a while, he replied.

"Compared to the wealth that patents bring to me, I enjoy the fun that science itself brings to me. As for the numbers in the bank card...they are of course useful. As you said, with them I can do whatever I want. Do what you like, without having to think too much about whether it has economic, cultural, and political value."

"As for the fame," paused for a moment, Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "...I think science has no end. Before I can't think about it in bed, I still don't deserve this evaluation."

The interview took about 20 minutes. Later, Julie asked him a lot about life, research, and the work related to the job, and Lu Zhou also responded selectively.

At the end of the interview, Julie asked the last question.

“Can you ask about your future plans?”

"The future," Lu Zhou looked up, closed his eyes and seriously thought about this problem for a while, giving an uncertain answer, "may be physics."

Julie: "Physics?"

“Yes,” Lu Zhou nodded. “Theoretical physics has always been an area of ​​interest to me, because this field is most closely integrated with mathematics. In fact, I have also participated in many studies in this area. And the most critical Yes, there is a problem that has not been understood and still plagues me."

About the signal of 750gev.

Although the mainstream view is increasingly common to think that this is just a beautiful misunderstanding, Lu Zhou believes that his calculations will not deceive his eyes.

Behind that signal, there must be an amazing secret.

Julie grinned and said: "This is a very powerful decision. I sincerely hope that you will succeed. In addition, there is one last thing you need to ask."

Lu Zhou and Yan Yue said: "What?"

"If you don't mind, we want to take a photo for you as the cover of the next issue of Time Magazine. But not here, will you have time tomorrow?"

That's it.

Say it.

Lu Zhou smiled and nodded happily.

"No problem at all."

He has always been very confident about his handsomeness.

After agreeing on the time and place of the cover, Julie left with her assistant and photographer.

As she said, the entire interview did not take him a long time.

At the beginning, I hid in the club members who were watching the crowd. After seeing those people left, they finally came over.

The first voice was Jimmy. I saw the boy with the freckle face curious and asked: "Teach... coach, who are those people?"

Lu Zhou replied casually: "Reporter."

A Mexican guy said: "Do you want to go to the news?"

"That's right." Looking at the adoring members, Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Let's cheer, if you win the championship, I believe many people will be willing to interview you."

The Mexican-American guy asked with interest: "I can ask, which TV station are the reporters?"

"It's not a TV station..." In fact, Lu Zhou is also very surprised that they are holding a video camera, obviously just a paper media.

In order to capture the wonderful moment?

After hearing that it was not a TV station, everyone was lacking in interest.

White is excited.

It turned out that there was no TV.

However, at this time, Lu Zhou made up half of the sentence.

"It's just the Times Weekly."

Everyone: "..."

The word "just" is used to make people have nothing to say.

In the end, it was Jimmy who broke this silence.

I saw this young man and whispered a word.

"...Time Magazine will not interview a drone race in the district."

This sentence tells the voice of all members of the Princeton Drone Club.

They are all good consultants, and the only fly in the ointment is that they will force themselves.

And every time they are loaded, they make them speechless.

Lu Zhou smiled, did not evaluate Jimmy's Tucao, and took a clap to end the topic.

"Don't waste time, hurry up and cheer for training. Before the official game, this is probably my last guidance to you."

Jimmy immediately asked: "Coach, are you going to have something next week?"

Lu Zhou nodded.

"From next week, I will go to Germany for a while. If it is fast, it may take a week or two. If it takes a long time, it may take more than a month. If you need to use the equipment in the laboratory, you can contact my assistant Connie. ”

Patted the shoulders of the young man, Lu Zhou said with a smile.

"I hope that when I come back, I can hear the news of your victory."
