"Tianben?" Xiaomao was stunned for a moment with a puzzled expression on his face. He scratched his hair before remembering something, and nodded slightly, "Oh, I remembered, it was the one whose name is Honglian Island that my husband mentioned to me. The guy who wrote the novel at the center?"

Hey, as a young man in the Kanto area, you haven't even heard of Tianben's name?Xia Bo was obviously choked, and said resentfully: "Well, that's right, it's because of his novel "Red Lotus, Red Lotus" that aroused many people's attention to the ruined Red Lotus Research Institute."

He paused, and couldn't help but add: "I've read it too, it's a very good article, not only rich in imagination, but also rare in its clear logic, it can be seen that the author himself has a great understanding of Honglian Island. History has put a lot of effort into research and exploration.”

Because of this, he speculated that maybe Tianben, an outstanding young man, was a native of Red Lotus Island, and he was trying to find clues recently.

Xiaomao shook his head, and in order to hide his slightly upturned lips, he quickly changed the topic: "Mr. Xia Bo, you called me today to discuss Tianben's new novel?"

It was only then that Xia Bo remembered what he really wanted to talk about, and his eyes lit up with excitement: "Let me tell you, isn't it because the alliance's funding is not enough to rebuild the institute? I want to go to several rich men and researchers to collect donations." , set up an account dedicated to raising donations.”

Xiaomao nodded to show that he understood.

Xia Bo took a deep breath, his cheeks were flushed, and he lowered his voice more nervously: "Can you guess how big a sum of money I suddenly received this morning? It's three times the amount allocated by the alliance!"

Xiao Mao opened his mouth wide in cooperation and looked surprised. In fact, he was really surprised. He didn't expect the alliance to be so poor.

After all, Xia Bo was a member of the high-ranking officials of the alliance. It was impossible for him to scold the alliance for being stingy to a researcher, and it was impossible to directly tell him how much the alliance allocated, but every word and every word expressed his slight dissatisfaction.

Xiao Mao thought about the twists and turns after he pondered for a moment, but he still looked puzzled: "But what does this have to do with Tianben? Could it be the money he donated?" No, in order to prevent someone from saying that it was deliberately hyped, He didn't sign it, and that bank account was used for the first time, so there shouldn't be any trace left.

"I guessed it." Xia Bo was quite proud, and blinked meaningfully at him, "the website of Tianben's serialized novels has a rule, that is, after the payment is settled with the author, the administrator will post the payment to the author. Leave a message in the column, please ask the author to confirm whether the remittance has been received—at 10:[-] today, a message reminding you to check the remittance appeared in the Tianben column, and [-] minutes later, I got the donation.”

After Xia Bo finished speaking, he couldn't help shaking his head, with an undisguised admiration on his face: "Although it's an anonymous donation, I think it's probably him. Those entrepreneurs who donate a little money can't shout the whole world. We all know, let alone such a large sum of money, it must be a high-quality person who does not care about fame and fortune."

In fact, he can also understand why entrepreneurs are not anonymous. To expand their influence and publicize among the public, companies must try their best to increase their exposure. The real-name system for donations has always been a rigid rule.

Xiaomao blinked his eyes, and praised according to his meaning: "Tianben is really amazing, this is great, presumably with this money, the project of rebuilding the Red Lotus Research Institute can start smoothly, right? "

Xia Bo was obviously choked again, but still shook his head, calmed down and sighed: "I'm afraid it's not too late, I don't want to hastily prop up an empty shelf of a research institute, I want to equip Honglian with the most high-end facilities..." He In the end, he hesitated to speak, and the proposal was rejected by the alliance's opposition.

"I understand that the number of researchers is getting smaller and smaller, and many children are determined to become a more passionate and exciting career as a trainer, which has led to a crisis of shortage of manpower in all research institutes." Xiaomao thought of Nanami a few years ago. As soon as he came back from the Hoenn area, he easily got the letter of appointment from the Nibi City Research Institute, and now the shortage of researchers is even more serious.

Xia Bo looked worried: "Who says it's not? Although I am not an orthodox researcher, I have a deep understanding of the current situation. Honglian Island is still a tourist attraction. The atmosphere is too lively and it is not suitable for researchers to concentrate on academics. It's hard to attract really capable researchers."

Although Red Lotus Island was once a sacred place, even the elf researcher, a former pillar profession of the alliance, is gradually declining, and the status of Red Lotus Island is becoming more and more embarrassing. At least in the initial stage of reconstruction, many prestigious senior researchers will Take a wait-and-see attitude.

"Actually, I think there is a lot to do." Xiaomao pondered for a moment, and pointed out a clear path for him, "As we all know, those who still need to work in the research institute are only at the senior researcher level. Doctors are mostly hidden in the countryside."

Just like his grandfather Dr. Oki has lived in seclusion in Zhenxin Town for more than 30 years, and Dr. Nishino Mori plans to live in the remote Binu Coast.Research masters who have the ability to complete independent scientific research have increasingly tended to explore alone in small places.

A plausible statement came out, and Xia Bo did not disappoint him, and immediately grasped the key point: "You mean, we invite several heavyweight doctors to move to Honglian Island?"

"That's right, these people are all living advertisements." Product endorsements are not popular in this world, but this is almost the same meaning, Xiaomao further explained what he meant, "It doesn't need to waste their time too much, just study I think it would be very attractive to ordinary researchers if I stayed for half a month in the early stage of the museum’s reconstruction.”

Xia Bo looked like he wanted to jump across the screen and give him a hug, his chest heaved violently and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, you are right! This idea is great!"

"When I went out to raise funds today, I was asked, there are enough research institutes in cities in the Kanto area, why spend a lot of money and energy to rebuild a declining research institute? They know nothing, red The Lian Research Institute used to be the pride of the academic world! How could they understand my feelings!" Xia Bo was very emotional, and his eyes couldn't help getting wet. He realized that he had lost his composure in front of the juniors, but he didn't care. "Xiao Mao, after you participate in the Quartz Competition in Kanto, can you accompany me to the Alliance Headquarters on the Quartz Plateau?"

His identity as a trainer in Xiabo Gymnasium made his proposal to rebuild the research institute always questioned, and he was unable to deal with many professional academic issues well, and he could not answer satisfactorily when facing high-level questions. A larger reason for the lower grants for institute projects.

Xiao Mao showed a smile: "I did not participate in this year's Quartz Competition due to some personal reasons, but I have to consider going to the Quartz Plateau to watch the competition in the past few days."

Xia Bo looked at him in surprise, and out of politeness, he didn't ask the specific reason for his absence, but just nodded: "That's really great, I'll start from Honglian Island immediately."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Mao raised his hand to touch his beating heart, and wiped the thin sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

"I've never seen you so happy and excited." Chaomeng's voice sounded faintly behind him, and he couldn't hear much emotion, "Why? You should know that if your attempt fails, those stupid humans will You are being blamed for not being able to rebuild the institute."

"That's not so, human beings are not as dirty as you think." Xiaomao added silently in his heart, at least the human beings in this world are not so dark, "This is a rare opportunity."

His eyes are not as gentle as before, but excited and frenzied like never before, which is the light of an ambitious person: "The Red Lotus Research Institute has been silent for too long, so that too many people have forgotten the supreme glory it once had , it is not only an abandoned research institute, but also a declining glory. A large number of researchers left Honglian Island, and the era of great changes and great discoveries came to an abrupt end decades ago. Trauma and loss, and the research community has never been able to reproduce the flourishing of the past since.”

Xiaomao felt that he was a little sick. He had never been very interested in money, fame, or women (or men), but he had a more fanatical special complex in his heart.

Chaomeng's voice hummed very softly: "So, you are leaving here for the Quartz Plateau soon?"

"The machine you need has almost been repaired." Xiaomao moved his fingers, his feverish mind quickly cooled down, and he recovered his previous calm and calm in a short while. "Before I leave, I want to copy the original version made by the machine." , can you?" This sentence was actually a small test, he didn't figure out whether Chaomeng planned to let him leave the new island.

Chaomeng looked him up and down with a very subtle gaze: "You, you don't plan to complete my counterattack with me?"

Xiaomao blinked his eyes blankly. At this moment, he actually wanted to ask how the weird aura of this infatuated woman's heartbreaker came from, but he nodded anyway: "Do you still need to use me?" place?"

Chaomeng's kangaroo-like facial features froze, and it took a long time before he sneered: "No." After leaving a word, he turned around and walked away with his tail flicked, continuing his psychological journey as a philosopher facing the sea.

Xiao Mao stood there in a daze for a while, shook his head, walked out of the research institute, and continued to sit on the lawn to feed the miniature dragon.
