HP's Chinese Parents

"Oh? Did you come to see Alan? But didn't Alan tell you? Did he go to school?" John Turing said in surprise, "In Cambridge, you know, it's still a little far from London, so he I set off early to prepare, and if there is no special event, he will not come back even on weekends.”

Nick:! ! !

It was like a bolt from the blue, and finally summoned up the courage to approach her, only to be told that her sweetheart had gone to school!Yes, he forgot that even if he is Turing, even if he is a mathematical genius, even if he can explain the theory of relativity to his mother in his teens, even if he is the future father of artificial intelligence, he still has to go to school.

Nick felt that he had never hated the start of school so much, and he hated himself for being indecisive and missing the last chance a few days ago.He returned home in a daze, and played the piano all day under the watchful eyes of his elder brother. When he played the canon, he even pitied his left hand in the sad tune, ah, it tried so hard to want to To be close to the right hand, but not to stay away again and again, perhaps this is fate.

"There used to be such a good opportunity in front of me, but I didn't cherish it."

"Who would have thought that the last time I met him was in a dream?"

"The last thing he said to me was that you don't know anything about math."

His sweetheart is in Cambridge, 90 kilometers away from him. Nick, who is frustrated in love, can only continue to indulge in work. He wants to get Streptomyces viridans and see if he can get the most broad-spectrum antibiotic, tetracycline.Recently, Roland earned money like crazy. When he wanted to sign a huge long-term order with Germany, Nick had to stop him.

Nick said earnestly: "I think we should limit the export volume to certain countries."

"Why?" Roland was surprised. He wasn't unwilling, but simply surprised. Anyway, either dumping at a low price or restricting sales at a high price, capital can always make money.

Nick pondered: "Do you still remember the prophecy that Marshal Foch made after signing the Treaty of Versailles 12 years ago?"

"The Paris Peace Conference didn't create peace, it just brought about a 20-year truce." Roland understood Nick's hint, and he frowned: "You mean...wars like 1914?"

Nick thought he could realize the seriousness of the matter, but then Roland clenched his fist excitedly. He leaned forward and approached Nick on the opposite side and whispered: "My God! Did you hear anything? Of course, I know the current peace is a Carthaginian peace, and many people have a hunch that the war will happen sooner or later, but do you think it will start so soon?"

He held Nick's hand tightly, his face was deformed with excitement: "If that's true, then you're right! How can we sell them so easily at such a low price? Wait until the war happens Finally, this is definitely worth more than arms!"

Looking at Roland like this, Nick was stunned. The export limit he proposed was to slow down the arrival of World War II as much as possible by suppressing the strength of those fascist countries. And the confidence swells to start the war in advance.Although Roland also agreed with his suggestion of restricting sales, he wished that the war would start earlier so that he could sell his products at a good price.

At this moment, Nick felt shrouded in hopeless loneliness. It turned out that the best friend he recognized had a different view of war from him.But it would be unfair to blame Roland for this. He smiled wryly in his heart. Isn't the biggest cornucopia of ocean trade the colonies?Reborn in England, the empire on which the sun never sets, and enjoying all the advantages this country gained through war, how could he tell Roland about the peace and justice in his heart?

"Roland," Nick said with difficulty, "war is not an interesting thing. 17 years ago, we and Germany felt that the war would end soon, and even many nobles regarded it as a rare opportunity to make meritorious deeds. They claim that if they're lucky they can bring the medal back before Christmas."

"But as a result, you know, we almost lost a whole generation of young people."

"The war-loving aristocracy never recovered."

"In order to win, we had to borrow money from the United States to buy weapons, and the huge arrears have not yet been repaid."

"Whatever the reason, war is always the worst possible outcome."

Roland put away his excited expression, touched by his friend's inexplicable sadness, and patiently listened to Nick's logically confusing statements.Finally, he asked suspiciously: "But it will happen sooner or later, right? Nick, I get it, you hate war, but in the face of a war that is doomed to happen, is it wrong to pursue the maximization of interests?"

Afterwards, he surrendered to Nick with an even more broken expression: "Okay, well, I know people who are passionate about academics have a soft heart. But Nick, when you created the first penicillin and decided to keep it firmly in your hands You can’t be so naive anymore when you hold your own hands. Of course, as the controllers of this behemoth, we have the right to choose traders according to our own likes and dislikes, but if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. Are you really right? Are you mentally prepared for the power you control?"

Roland's beautiful eyes flashed a cold light, his thin lips moved slightly, and his words were like a knife: "This country is your favorite, we will sell it 1000 more to help it; you have never heard of that area, Sell ​​it for a thousand less, and then [-] people will die painfully from the infection."

"Nick, it's not just war and weapons that kill."

===============

Although a consensus was finally reached on restricting exports to Germany, this was the first time that the two broke up after meeting or getting acquainted.

To make matters worse, not long after, Nick inadvertently found a short sentence "Japan launched A surprise attack on China'.

Holding the newspaper, he wandered the streets for a long time. When he passed by Allen's house, he looked at the warm light from behind the window, and felt that the beautiful dream-like days before, immersed in the fantasy of love with considerations of gain and loss, would never come back again. coming.

Back home, he heard Miss Su Yan teaching Tom a poem he had never heard before in a sad tone:

"The willow leaves sing, the green is dark, the lotus is red when the sun sets."

"36 Pi Chunshui, Baitou wants to see Jiangnan."

"At this place 30 years ago, my father and brother held my things."

"Today I come back to Baishou again, and I am lost if I want to find the old traces."

The author has something to say: My son, Nick, is such a miserable person.

PS: Well, actually, I wanted to write a 5-word short story from the very beginning (after all, I didn’t even have an outline). I wrote the plot of this chapter in Chapter 7, but at that time I didn’t know why I put Lao Tang in it. It came out, and then someone asked me about CP, I thought I should find a CP, so there were more than ten chapters of nonsense. emmm is almost 5 words long.Writing daily is simply poisonous!

We strive to finish it with 8 words!Let's talk about whether you want to see daily life, career or love~

Finally, advertise my new article!
