Scholar's Advanced Technological System

Chapter 968 Approve It!

Even though Kanov’s ideas were hard to execute, there was no one on Earth better than Professor Stanley to review this thesis.

After all, in a way, this was like letting the author review his own thesis...

Binghamton University.

Inside a chemistry laboratory.

Professor Stanley had just returned from giving a lecture. He threw his notebook on the sofa and whistled to himself as he sat down at his desk.

After his failure a few years ago, ExxonMobil lost the opportunity to enter the lithium-sulfur battery market and also lost their trust in him.

This was a huge blow to his self-esteem, which caused his depression for quite some time.

However, after some time, he gradually came out of that man’s shadow.

He didn’t react at all when he watched Lu Zhou on television, presenting one result after another.

It wasn’t like he was the only person who was defeated by Lu Zhou...

Materials science was a field that had an element of luck involved. Some people might never achieve their desired experiment results, while others succeeded by happenstance.

Even the 2008 Nobel Prize laureate in chemistry, Martin Chalfie, said, “Sometimes if an experiment is unsuccessful, try throwing the sample on the ground or in the sea, do anything you can think of. Eventually, someone will work.”

Professor Lu was obviously favored by gods, so Professor Stanley wanted to stay as far away from him as possible.

Professor Stanley was about to call his assistant to make him another cup of coffee when his assistant suddenly spoke.

“Professor, you have a review invitation from JACS.”

Review invitation from JACS?

Interesting.

Professor Stanley said casually, “Print out the paper, let me check it out.”

“Okay, professor!”

Professor Stanley suddenly remembered that he forgot to ask for another cup of coffee.

Sigh, I’m getting old, my memory is deteriorating.

Whatever, I’ll make it myself.

Professor Stanley sighed and shook his head. He stood up and went to the coffee machine.

When he sat back down at his desk, his student brought over the freshly printed paper.

Professor Stanley drank his coffee as he read the paper title. He couldn’t help but sneer.

Lithium-air battery?

Which idiot is it this time?

However, when he looked at the author’s name, his eyebrows began to twitch.

Lu Zhou!

“Not this again...”

Professor Stanley took another sip of coffee and pretended like he didn’t read the author’s name. He began to read the abstract.

However, he couldn’t concentrate.

He was halfway through reading the first line of the abstract when he suddenly spat out the coffee from his mouth.

“This despicable thief! Liar! Shameless!”

Professor Stanley ignored the coffee spills on his clothes and stood up.

Everyone in the office was stunned, and they tried not to make eye contact with the grumpy professor.

As Professor Stanley stared at the paper in his hands, his eyes were filled with rage. He wanted to tear the paper to shreds.

Caged carbon molecules!

That was mine!

He would never forget what happened six years ago, where his academic career was demolished by these damn carbon nanospheres!

“When the oxygen purity of one side of the modified PDMS film reaches 96.7%, the carbon nanospheres embedded in the modified PDMS film act as transporters, moving the remaining oxygen molecules...

“This is quite a peculiar phenomenon. The oxygen concentration decreases nonlinearly as the thickness of the modified PDMS material decreases. I think there are two possibilities for this phenomenon... F*ck sake, this little sh*t...”

Professor Stanley’s face was as red as a tomato. It was like something was stuck in his throat, stopping him from breathing.

His assistant immediately stepped forward and gave him a glass of water.

He drank the glass of water and was finally able to breathe.

“Thanks...”

He sat back down and squeezed the paper in his hand. His eyes were filled with regret.

I was finessed.

I’m not the only one.

ExxonMobil is also about to be played.

Even though he was finessed by this as*hole six years ago, he didn’t expect this “double agent” to play him again six years later...

“Damn it, I should have known...”

Professor Stanley grabbed his hair and looked broken.

Why didn’t I try to add the caged carbon molecules to a polymer material, and try to find out its oxygen environment characteristics?

I’ve done similar experiments before, I’m a master in materials science!

However, reality was often disappointing.

No one would have expected that the modified PDMS film could be used in lithium-air batteries...

Despite Stanley calling Lu Zhou a “thief”, he decided to ignore the fact that the model for the material was “stolen” from the Sarrot laboratory...

The students in the office looked at each other; they didn’t dare to speak.

Six years ago, most of them were still in their undergraduate studies; some were even in high school...

The assistant looked at his boss and spoke.

“Then... are we rejecting?”

“No...” Professor Stanley scrunched the paper into a ball and threw it in the waste bin. “Approve it!”

Assistant: “...?”

Students: “???”

Approved?!

Look at how furious you are, why are you approving?

The assistant looked at his angry boss, unsure if the professor was kidding or not. The assistant then sat down at his desk and began writing a response to JACS.

Normally, the paper review process took longer, but seeing how the reviewer already finished reading the paper...

The assistant would just respond with some generic review comments.

Professor Stanley looked at his assistant and started to calm down. He quietly muttered to himself, “A research result like this... Even if the Nobel Committee isn’t interested in materials science, the American Materials Research Society award committee will take this seriously.”

Even though the property of the caged carbon molecules in the modified PDMS film wasn’t discovered by him, if it could really be used for lithium-air batteries...

It would benefit Stanley in some way.

But I’m still so f*cking angry!

I can’t accept this.

After taking a dozen breaths trying to calm down, Professor Stanley made a decision.

Since this shameful dog is going to use my research as a reference, I’ll give him a taste of his own medicine...
