MIT's reaction
MIT, the conference room, is holding an emergency board meeting.
"Everyone, school directors, everyone must know about Atiyah and Professor Rogge."
"This is the influence of Academic City, and this is only the tip of the iceberg of its attractiveness. In the future, as the construction of Academic City continues to improve, its attractiveness will continue to increase."
"So here, I propose to build an academic city around the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. What do you think?" As the dean of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Raphael is giving an impassioned speech on the podium, while the audience is A group of gray-haired old men around 60 years old.
They are all board members of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, injecting a large amount of funds into MIT every year, and MIT gives them various inventions and creations in return.
The relationship between them and the school is like a kind of alternative symbiotic relationship.
Schools need the money in their hands, and they need MIT to continue to develop new technologies for them.
Academic City?
As soon as Raphael finished speaking, the whole room fell silent.
They have all heard about Atiyah and Rogge.
They were indeed amazed at the attractiveness of the "Academic City".
But there is also a problem here, and that is funding.
Building an academic city requires a lot of money.
That's not something that can be solved with one or two billion, or even one billion.
The investment of billions or tens of billions is too much for even them.
And most importantly, if the academic city is built, then forget it.
If it can't be built, then the billions and tens of billions of investment will all be wasted. This is the most terrible thing. Tens of billions will be wasted, and no one can stand it.
"Raphael, you should know how difficult it is to build an academic city." Someone in the crowd said.
His name is Wenger, a well-known rich man in the United States, who runs several sports brands under his command, with tens of billions of assets.
Hearing Wenger's words, Raphael nodded. Of course he knew the difficulty of building an academic city.
Not only does it require massive financial support, but it also needs to mobilize the enthusiasm of everyone and coordinate the interests of all parties.
Nothing is easy to accomplish.
But you know, you know, Rafael, I still want to try!
"Mr. Wenger, there is a good saying, sail against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat." Raphael said solemnly: "Nowadays, Beishan Academic City is still in the early stage of construction, and it has already shown unparalleled attraction. Atiyah He and Rogge joined BIT without hesitation, which is the best evidence."
"If the Beishan Academic City is really established in the future, it will not only be Atiyah and Rogge, but there will be more world-renowned professors joining."
"Even our school has people who choose to quit."
"Talents are always the most important thing in a school. If a large number of talents are lost, MIT will soon fall from the altar and disappear in the tide of history."
Yes, Beishan Academic City has just started construction, and it has attracted Atiyah and Rogge to join.
What about later?
As the construction of Beishan Academic City becomes more and more perfect, its attractiveness will inevitably increase.
At that time, it will not only be Atiyah and Rogge, but scholars from all over the world will gather towards Beishan.
