Chapter 363 The Ambassador Is Invited

After writing down 10,000 characters in an eloquent manner, Lu Zhou read the contents of the letter paper from beginning to end several times, and stuffed it into the envelope after confirming that there was no problem.

Lu Zhou didn't expect that a short letter from himself would be able to help Jin Da to complete the super calculation.

However, he has already described in detail his views on computational chemistry, computational materials science, and the practical significance of developing computational materials in the letter.

The power of Anton is obvious to all in the industry. To develop computational chemistry, a supercomputer dedicated to molecular dynamics simulations is a must.

You may not see much in the short term, but the investment is definitely worth it in the long run.

Glancing at the wall clock on the wall, seeing that it was getting late, Lu Zhou changed into formal clothes and got up to go downstairs to take a taxi.

However, when he just walked to the door of the hotel, he saw a black Mercedes-Benz parked there, and at the same time, a man in a gray suit with a strong appearance was standing beside the door.

When he saw Lu Zhou, he immediately greeted him here.

"Hi, Professor Lu, I'm the driver who came to pick you up from the embassy." The man stretched out his right hand and said in a friendly tone.

Lu Zhou shook hands with him: "What's your name?"

"You can just call me Sun Hong."

Judging from the calluses on his hands, this man's identity is definitely not just that of a driver, he probably also plays a role like a bodyguard in the embassy.

However, these have nothing to do with Lu Zhou. After looking at his ID, Lu Zhou got into the car.

Without talking all the way, the car soon came to the banks of the Spree River in the central area of ​​Berlin, and stopped at the gate of the embassy in Germany.

In front of this magnificent building, Lu Zhou saw Ambassador Hu Mingde and his wife waiting at the door.

"Welcome! Professor Lu."

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" After shaking hands with the ambassador, Lu Zhou said cautiously, "Actually, there is no need to be so grand. Humboldt University is not far from here. I can come here by car."

"How is this possible! Compared with your contribution to the country and society, this small gift is not a respect." With a smile like Mu Chunfeng, Ambassador Hu introduced the wife beside him to Lu Zhou very gracefully, "This This is my wife, Wang Dexin."

Lu Zhou said with a smile: "This is a humble room, but my wife is a good name."

"My father likes to study those poems," Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "I didn't expect Professor Lu not only to have profound insights in mathematics, but also to study ancient poems."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhou was immediately embarrassed.

Although he is a man of culture, he really doesn't have much research on ancient poetry.

The only bit of ink in my stomach is thanks to the nine-year compulsory education...

"Let's stop standing at the door, go in if you have something to say." Ambassador Hu smiled, and made a gesture of invitation, "Professor Lu please."

...

In the restaurant of the embassy, ​​Lu Zhou had dinner with Ambassador Hu and his wife.

What is served on the table is not delicacies from mountains and seas, but it is the authentic hometown dishes that are difficult to eat overseas.

Looking at the cage of crystal clear steamed buns, Lu Zhou felt nostalgic for a while, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"...After so many years, this is what I miss the most."

Although he used to complain to his roommates that the steamed buns in the cafeteria were as thick as steamed buns, but after he went to Princeton, he realized that what he missed the most were the soy milk and steamed buns, and the ten yuan a bowl of beef noodles.

Don’t even think about soy milk and steamed buns, beef noodles can be eaten in Princeton.

However, dare you believe that the beef noodles there are actually sweet!

It's fine if you don't put chili, but putting sugar in beef noodles is just evil!

In this regard, Lu Zhou could not accept it anyway.

"How is it? Is the food here satisfactory?" Ambassador Hu said with a smile.

"Very delicious," Lu Zhou nodded with a smile, "It seems that you have hired a very good chef, please thank him for me."

Hearing this sentence, Ambassador Hu laughed.

"I don't need to bring these words, isn't this chef right in front of your eyes?"

Lu Zhou froze for a moment, then looked at Mrs. Wang in surprise.

"Did you do it?"

Mrs. Wang smiled lightly, and said modestly: "Don't listen to his nonsense, I'm not a chef. At most, I made the steamed buns, and the rest were made by real chefs in the embassy."

"Being an ambassador is a very interesting job, but living here for a long time and being too far away from home will also feel quite boring. The usual fun of my wife and I is to study the traditional culture of our hometown, and so is the food. One of them," Ambassador Hu said with a smile and a pleasant face, "although I am mainly responsible for eating."

The atmosphere of the dinner was not serious, it could even be said that it was like a family dinner, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Lu Zhou talked about some interesting anecdotes and researches during his teaching at Princeton University, and Master Hu also talked about some interesting experiences he encountered during his years of working in Germany.

In this foreign country, no one deliberately emphasized their identities, and the three chatted while eating.

In the second half of the dinner, everyone had almost eaten. Hu Da wiped his mouth with a paper towel, looked at Lu Zhou and said with a smile.

"Professor Lu has been single for so many years, didn't he plan to find a partner to solve his lifelong affairs?"

Lu Zhou sighed and said, "I'm busy with my studies, so I don't have time to think about it."

This is true.

In the past, I always felt that I couldn't find a suitable one, but now I don't have time to find it, so I just put it on hold.

Otherwise, Lu Zhou felt that in this era of looking at faces, it should be a casual thing to find a partner based on his own conditions, right?

"Haha, that's true. After all, Professor Lu's time is precious. However, scientific research is important, and life-long events should not be neglected. If you don't have time, would you like me to introduce you?" Hu Da used a joking tone, not He continued as if joking, "For example, what do you think of Hu Ying?"

Lu Zhou froze for a moment, then coughed dryly: "This... Marriage is a lifelong event after all, so don't bother the motherland to worry about me."

Arranged marriages are a bad habit of the old society, this is not a good thing.

However, if the country intends to solve the future marriage room for him in advance...

Although I don't know when it will be used, but this can still be considered!

Seeing that Lu Zhou was not interested in his daughter, although Ambassador Hu felt a little regretful, he didn't take it too seriously. He just smiled and said.

"Haha, I just mentioned it casually, so don't take Professor Lu to heart."

Although his tone just now didn't sound like he just mentioned it casually.

After pausing for a moment, Ambassador Hu put the previous topic aside, coughed lightly, restrained the unscrupulous expression on his face, and continued.

"I wonder if Professor Lu has paid attention to this year's National Science and Technology Awards Conference?"

Lu Zhou glanced at him suspiciously, not understanding why he suddenly brought up this topic.

"I haven't...what's the matter?"

"If you don't pay attention, you can look forward to it."

Speaking of this, Ambassador Hu smiled.

Immediately afterwards, he threw out a terrible news in a normal tone.

"I also heard from my friends that your name may be on the conference in January next year."
