Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Silicon Valley, Sarrot Institute.

Lying on the table is five resignation letters.

The resignation letter Sacrot Professor did not touch, but Lu Zhou picked it up with interest and looked at it roughly.

Then, soon he understood why Sarrot was so thunderous.

Obviously, this little Boss is not particularly worthy of being seen in the Institute, at least in some people’s minds. Even if people have to go, don’t forget to stick a gun to the old letter in the resignation letter.

But think about it too. Before Lu Zhou acquired the institute, the guy was in arrears with the salary of these researchers for several months. If it wasn’t for Lu Zhou’s appearance, many people might not even have a credit card.

“This damn white-eyed wolf!”

Sitting at the desk, Sarrot’s cock was full of anger, and the fist resting on the table was pinched.

It was at this time that the office door was pushed open and his research assistant came in with a stack of documents.

Looking at the little Boss who is on the air, the assistant whispered started talking nervously.

“Sarotte mister, the information you want…”

Although this is said to Sarrot, the research assistant’s eyes are looking at another big Boss in the office.

Shaking his head with a smile, Lu Zhou reached out.

“give it to me.”

“Okay, Professor…”

The document was handed to Lu Zhou, who was relieved and quickly fled the office.

When he left, he consciously took the door.

Sitting down on the couch, Lu Zhou simply picked up the file and rolled his eyes.

This document is divided into two parts, one is the original contract of the departing employee, and the other is the loss assessment report.

It must be said that Mobil Chemical’s movements are very fast, and Stanley Professor is also very decisive.

The battle just started, and the two easily joined hands to give him a Mawei, and he ran away five researchers from his hands.

Although in San Francisco, where colleges and universities are crowded and the talent market is oversupply, it is impossible to dig into this corner, but the work that should have been responsible for them has been left behind.

For a time, the research progress of the Sarrot laboratory was also due to the five resignation letters, which fell into a short-term stagnation.

If that’s the case, it’s nothing.

It is also necessary to see who is being dug in the wall. In a middle-level research institute with a well-managed system, even researchers who are responsible for the same project cannot access all the experimental data.

However, the problem is here.

One of the research assistants, Ricardo, has the possibility of leaking.

As mentioned in this loss assessment report, the data that the research assistant came into contact with at work included the spatial structure of cage carbon molecules provided by Lu Zhou, and some uncompleted mathematics models…

Although no direct evidence can prove that he will leak, there are some things that do not require evidence to prove.

However, when I saw this, Lu Zhou was relaxed.

Seeing that Lu Zhou was not angry at all, Sarnot couldn’t help but ask: “Are you not worried at all?”

“It’s just five assistants,” he dropped the assessment report on the coffee table. Lu Zhou said with a relaxed tone, “The problem is not big.”

“You actually said that the problem is not big?” Sarnot looked at Lu Zhou in disbelief. He said with excitement, “This is good. They not only know the progress of our research, but even we are clear about what we are studying.” !”

“Don’t be so scared, my dear Sarrot Professor,” looked at the excited Professor, Lu Zhou said with a word of comfort. “This is San Francisco. Since you like this place, you should be able to understand, dig the wall and jump here. It is a normal competitive means.”

Stanley Whitingham Professor is also a big player in the field of lithium batteries, and is also the director of the Institute of Materials Research at the University of New York at the State University of New York.

Thirty years ago, he was a big bull in the field of lithium, and under the auspices of ExxonMobil Chemical, he developed the TiS2/Li lithium battery system. If it is not the lithium dendrite stuck in the neck, it can not be commercialized, with the horrible theoretical energy density, put it at the time of the appropriate black technology.

Compared with this big man, Lu Zhou, who is a “new” in the field of Material Science, has no advantage in the reputation of Material Science.

In particular, Stanley is not alone. The shareholders behind his lab are the famous Exxon Mobil, the real industry giant that even Umicore is flustered.

In any case, things have already happened, and there is no point in entanglement in right or wrong.

For such behavior, Lu Zhou thought about it for a while and made his decision.

“According to the non-compete agreement and the non-disclosure agreement, the accountability of the infringement, the prosecution of the prosecution, if Exxon Mobil intends to pay for them, let them pay the bill.”

“It doesn’t hurt for Exxon Mobil. We have to pay a lawyer fee.” Sarnot complained, and couldn’t help but scream, “This group of despicable shameless guys!”

Lu Zhou shrugged: “No matter whether it hurts or not, this is our position on the traitor. I will let Star Technology accept the case and hire the best law firm in New York to take charge of the lawsuit. Even if it is done, we have to do it to others. People look.”

Although he is a very good speaker, his character is more accommodating, but this does not mean that he will make tolerance outside the rules.

It’s only a normal resignation procedure that exists. If you are in a good position, you should be ready to “retire” in advance!

According to the previously signed non-compliance agreement, researchers who have left the job in abnormal procedures will be prohibited from doing work in related fields within five years, otherwise they will bear an additional penalty. Especially Ricardo, he intends to sue on the charge of commercial espionage, and this crime will be subject to criminal responsibility depending on whether the circumstances are serious or not.

Paused, Lu Zhou continued: “In addition, our confidentiality measures need to be strengthened.”

Sarot Professor said: “I will let the legal department re-form a more stringent non-compete contract and confidentiality contract.”

Lu Zhou nodded: “This is only one aspect. You must remember that it is never a contract clause to really retain talent. In order to achieve a specific purpose, your opponent can always afford a higher price than you.”

For the enterprise, it is a corporate culture, and for the research institution, it is a research environment created by a series of factors such as well-known Scholar, top equipment, research results, and management system.

In contrast, these are the root of a research institute.

“I know what you said, but now is not the time to discuss these things. What’s next?” Sarrot looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “Do we continue to die with Mobil Chemical in this direction?”

Lu Zhou nodded: “Of course, we don’t have to change our direction because of this little setback.”

“They can use ten times our manpower to do the work we do for ten people,” said Sarrot’s tone. “I’m blunt, we have no chance at all.”

Looking at some of the self-defeating Sarrots, Lu Zhou’s expression was somewhat helpless.

What should I say?

Although the HCS-1 material was accidentally obtained when studying the caged carbon molecule, the two research institutes that thesis wrote in Science are indeed the Sarot Institute.

But neither the caged carbon molecule nor the research project carried out by the Sarrot Institute has a relationship with lithium-sulfur batteries.

The reason why Sarrot studied is just to complete the system mission.

However, these words are obviously not used to comfort people.

Lu Zhou is not sure, if he tells the truth about Sarrot, his mood will be better, or it will become even worse, even doubting life…
