Material Empire

On the outskirts of Charlottesville, where the University of Virginia is located, there is a small white two-story building. Dr. Liu Hansong's family lives in a small room downstairs.

It was already more than nine o'clock in the evening. His wife Tian Ruzhi was still working in a Chinese restaurant and did not return. Liu Hansong coaxed a 5-year-old child, pulled up the curtain in the middle of the room, came to the small room outside the curtain, Turn on the desk lamp and start reading the documents you checked during the day.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk, Tuk Tuk Tuk." Someone knocked gently on the door.

Liu Hansong looked at the small alarm clock on the table, wondering what kind of person he would be, and came to visit at such a time.

"Brother Liu, haven't you slept yet?" A girl's voice came from outside.

"Is it Xiao Xu?" Liu Hansong heard. This is the voice of Xu Xiaoqi, a new Chinese student who came to the University last year. This young teacher from Beijing University is kind-hearted, knowing that their husband and wife have a difficult life, they often come to visit each time, in the name of giving things to their children, bring some food and children's clothes, toys and so on.

He knew that Xu Xiaoqi's family was also an ordinary working class, and he also depended on part-time work subsidies to study abroad, so he advised Xu Xiaoqi not to give him anything here. However, Xu Xiaoqi said that he liked the children of the Liu family very much, but it was difficult for the Liu Hansong couple to refuse to come over to play with the children. In Liu Hansong's mind, he felt that Xu Xiaoqi and some other Chinese students were owed too much. After he graduated with a doctorate and found a job in the United States, he would definitely repay these debts.

Gently opened the door, Liu Hansong saw three people standing outside the door, one was Xu Xiaoqi, and the other two guys were unknown to him, but at a glance, they were all Chinese and had a feeling of closeness to each other.

"Xiao Xu, why are you here so late?" Liu Hansong asked strangely.

"Let's talk in the yard, don't make a noise," Xu Xiaoqi said. Xiao Liang is the child of the Liu Hansongs and Xu Xiaoqi knows that he must have fallen asleep at this time.

Liu Hansong nodded, took a few plastic stools from the house, and came to the yard, asking Xu Xiaoqi and the two boys to sit down, while he was sitting opposite them. He pointed his fingers at the two boys and asked Xu Xiaoqi, "Xiao Xu, is this a new student abroad? How have I never seen it before?"

"They came from the country to do business in the United States. This is Qin Hai, this is Ning Mo. They are salesmen at Jintang Chemical Materials Group Company." Xu Xiaoqi introduced the two to Liu Hansong.

"Oh, hello, my name is Liu Hansong. I used to work at Jingcheng University of Technology." Liu Hansong said politely to Qin Hai and Ning Mo, but he muttered in his heart. I wonder if Xu Xiaoqi brought such two people to his house. What do you mean.

Qin Hai asked with a smile: "Dr. Liu, you said that you used to work at Beijing University of Technology. So Sun Yuzhi, do you know?"

"Sun Yuzhi? Of course I know." Liu Hansong had a smile on his face. "We live in the diagonally opposite door in the Guanzi Building. He is engaged in metal materials. I am engaged in mechanics. There are some complementary areas in the research field. And , His lover Wang Jin and my lover are also good friends. "

"Haha, this is getting closer and closer." Qin Hai laughed. "Mr. Sun and I are also good friends, and Ms. Wang Jin and I are also very familiar."

"I heard that Yu Zhi was transferred and transferred to work in Anhe Province. Do you know this?" Liu Hansong asked. When Sun Yuzhi went to Anhe Material College, he heard about it from others, and the specific details are not clear. Hearing that Qin Hai and Sun Yuzhi are good friends, he asked about it casually. Since Qin Hai and his party refused to disclose the purpose of the late-night visit, he could only be false and indifferent, waiting to see how the other party finally spoke.

Qin Hai replied: "I arranged for Mr. Sun to go to Anhe."

"Did you arrange it?" Liu Hansong hesitated, he faintly felt that the Qin Hai in front of him seemed really prepared. What does it mean that someone who can help Sun Yuzhi mobilize to Anhe suddenly appears in front of himself? Also, what happened to Sun Yuzhi when he went to Anhe was not clear. The impression is that Anhe does not have any famous university, and it is worthy of an expert such as Sun Yuzhi to visit.

In front of Liu Hansong, Qin Hai didn't want to hide anything. He said, "Our company has built a material school in Anhe, specializing in the research of various new materials. Teacher Sun is very unhappy at the University of Technology because of lack of funding and scientific research. He couldn't do it, and his life was very poor, so I advised him to work in our materials college. "

"The Anhe Material College you said, why haven't I heard of it? Also, after Yu Zhi went, what about the treatment and progress in scientific research?" Liu Hansong asked eagerly.

"Ms. Sun is a key talent introduced by our college. The basic salary is 1,000 yuan a month. According to the results of scientific research, there are additional bonuses. His research on the third-generation permanent magnet materials has made major breakthroughs. Two articles will be published in two months. His family now lives in a three-bedroom house, and both of them are fatter than in the past. "Qin Hairu told Liu Hansong preciously.

"That's good, that's good ..." Liu Hansong replied neatly, with a smile on his face, but it was somewhat stiff. He was certainly happy that his old friend was able to get a high salary and produce results. But thinking of his own difficulties, he felt like a block in his heart. The so-called envy, jealousy and hate, is nothing more than Liu Hansong's psychological portrait now.

"Qin ... uh ..." Liu Hansong wanted to call Qin Hai, and found that he couldn't find a suitable title. He listened to Xu Xiaoqi's previous introduction about what kind of salesman Qin Hai was, thinking that Qin Hai would definitely have no title, but to call his name, it seemed a bit stiff. What's more, when Xu Xiaoqi introduced the names of these two people, Liu Hansong couldn't hear clearly. Whether it was Qin Han or celery, he couldn't remember something.

Qin Hai quickly said, "You and Mr. Sun are colleagues, you are called Xiao Qin, and Mr. Sun calls me like this."

"Uh, well, let me call you Qin." Liu Hansong said, "You come to me so late, is there anything wrong?"

"I heard Xiaoqi say that Dr. Liu was a bit nervous about family life because he was busy with his dissertation. Our company intends to provide some help to students studying abroad. I don't know if Dr. Liu is willing to accept it." Qin Hai said.

"Your company?" Liu Hansong warned. A huge pie fell from the sky. His first feeling was not joy, but doubt. Who knows what filling is in this pie? After working hard in the United States for several years, he can be regarded as a stern person, and he has instinctively doubted the benefits of being delivered to the door.

"Yes, our company." Qin Hai said, "Our vision is to provide a living loan of US $ 500 a month for some international students who have some difficulties studying abroad at their own expense, for a period of three years. After studying abroad, If you stay in the United States to work, you need to repay the loan within 5 to 10 years. If you return to work, you can take the same repayment method, or you can choose to work at our company to pay the loan with the service life. "

"$ 500 a month!" Liu Hansong's eyes flashed. If you can earn $ 500 a month, your wife won't need to work two jobs a day, and you can switch to a relatively light job. Three years is enough for him to complete his studies and find a relatively well-paid job in the United States. If his salary can reach $ 30,000, it will not be difficult to repay the loan. However, are there any unspeakable terms attached to such good conditions?

"So, how do you calculate interest?" Liu Hansong asked tentatively.

"We provide interest-free loans," Qin Hai replied.

"So ... what are you trying to figure out?" Liu Hansong finally asked what he wanted.

Qin Hai smiled and said, "Dr. Liu, you are all talents in our country. It is a disregard for talents to make you make such a big sacrifice for your studies. Our company is a technology-led company that has always respected Knowledge, respect for talent, and setting up such a loan is just a small contribution we make to you. "

"But ... I may not return to work in China." Liu Hansong said, he thinks that the company Qin Hai is talking about may be a large state-owned enterprise. Maybe the loan was also disguised by the state. However, the object of the country's loan should only be for those who will return to work in the future. For international students who intend to stay in the United States after graduation, how can the country pay for it?

Qin Hai still smiled and said, "Dr. Liu made a mistake. We provided this loan without considering whether you will return to China in the future ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ It makes sense whether you stay in the United States or return to China. It ’s the Chinese that wo n’t change. Overseas Chinese do well, is n’t it the glory of the country? ”

The more Qin Hai said this, the more Liu Hansong felt that there was a trap. He shook his head and said, "I still don't understand. How is this good for your company?"

Xu Xiaoqi was annoyed to see Liu Hansong so hesitant. The little girl now trusts Ning Mo and Qin Hai wholeheartedly. It is naturally very unhappy to see that Liu Hansong would doubt their character.

"Brother Liu, Brother Qin is an enthusiastic person. He didn't do this for any good, so don't hesitate. With this loan, Sister Tian doesn't have to work as hard as now." Xu Xiaoqi said.

"This ..." said Xu Xiaoqi, referring to Liu Hansong's weakest place. Why didn't he want to get the loan so that his wife would not be as tired as he is now. At this moment, he had a lot of thoughts. For a moment, he felt that the free lunch was not safe to eat, and for a while, he felt that even if it was a trap, he should jump without hesitation. Thinking about it, he really had a hard time choosing. r1152
