CHAPTER 505: CHAPTER 160: SENIOR BROTHER, LET’S DO SOMETHING BIG THIS TIME_3

At this moment, Qiao Yu was thinking about more than just helping Liu Hao solve their project problem.

Because he suddenly thought of a way to make money.

If this method is really effective, he could completely charge consulting fees in the future.

Chemists, material scientists, and even some physics experiments that hit a bottleneck and can’t find direction could invite him to use this method for targeted modeling.

If a specialized team is formed for modular operations, it really wouldn’t take much time.

The most important thing is that once this system is created, it can be priced clearly. It can be used for not just horizontal projects, but even vertical and facade projects can be discussed.

Is it disgraceful to take some consulting fees from the research funding?

Wouldn’t the business scope be broad? Laboratories, R&D departments of large enterprises, and those pure researchers...

As long as it’s a project with difficult preliminary modeling and complex analysis, it can be taken on. Qiao Yu even almost conceived an entire business model while waiting for Chen Zhuoyang to answer the phone.

Really, at this moment, Qiao Yu was somewhat grateful to that Professor Zhang Yuanling.

Fortunately, his fair evaluation strengthened his resolve to withdraw the project proposal. After all, according to the series of requirements for project funding, if he took research funds, discussing the ownership of the derivative research services using this set of research results would be tricky.

But now these all belong to his personal research results. If he can make it work, at least for these years, he can earn quite a bit.

As long as he can prove that many related experiments can avoid detours and get results faster, he believes that many research groups absolutely wouldn’t mind paying some consulting fees.

After all, for a small catalyst project before, Professor Zhang directly gave him two million in consulting fees.

This is simply a vast blue ocean!

The most important thing is that not much initial investment is needed, completely operating in a light asset model.

After all, the laboratories are built by others, and they can keep testing and perfecting their modular system using the data from those labs.

So, when Chen Zhuoyang answered the phone, Qiao Yu immediately said excitedly, "Hey, Senior Brother Chen, are you interested in playing big with me this time?!"

...

Rewind to one minute before.

Although it was almost five in the afternoon, Chen Zhuoyang was still napping...

After lunch, he chatted a bit with Qiao Yu on WeChat, and then directly lay on the bed and fell asleep.

No way around it, he was indeed too tired during this period. The average daily sleep time certainly didn’t exceed six hours, and he remained mentally excited during this time...

However, today he had completed all the current tasks and submitted them via email. He immediately felt relaxed.

As a result, he slept straight through until he was woken up by the continuous ringing of his phone.

Groggily picking up the phone to his ear, the call just auto-connected, and he immediately heard Qiao Yu’s energetic words, which forcibly woke his brain up.

Instinctively, he asked again: "Um... Junior Brother, what did you just say?"

"I asked if you are interested in playing big with me! This time it’s a legitimate big project. If we can nail it, we can definitely earn a lot!"

Hearing this sentence again, Chen Zhuoyang was no longer sleepy. He jerked up from the bed like a carp flipping upright.

Really, when Qiao Yu asked him to join the Generalized Modal Axiomatic System project team, he didn’t make it sound so exaggerating about playing big.

The project that started at the end of August had them soar by early November, with a paper published in the Mathematical Yearbook, and even got him to be the first author!

If this wasn’t considered a big project by Qiao Yu, then how big could this money-making project be?

It couldn’t possibly directly win them the Fields Medal, could it?

Okay, that’s a bit exaggerated, and Chen Zhuoyang didn’t dare to think about it. But since Qiao Yu said to play big, he just wanted to know how big it could be!

Even if it was a pie in the sky, the pie Qiao Yu promised him before did let him eat his fill!

"I’m interested! Of course, I’m interested! Junior Brother, I’ve always told you, whatever you say, I’ll do! Never mind playing big. Even if you want to blow up Jinda, I’ll find a way to get the explosives right now!"

Chen Zhuoyang immediately replied.

Okay, maybe this statement was a bit exaggerated... If it were true, he might hesitate a bit.

"Don’t kid around, Senior Brother Chen, do I look like someone who’d incite crime? But if we do this right, this thing could really have potential. Let me briefly explain first... But have you ever been to those chemistry or physics labs?"

Chen Zhuoyang was a bit confused, but he still honestly replied, "No."

"No, that doesn’t matter. Simply put, they often encounter problems during experiments that are not so easy to solve. My project is to construct a framework that can help them solve these problems.

This framework can provide them with a mathematical framework and theoretical support, offering modeling guidance when data isn’t enough, helping them save on costs and time while charging consulting fees."

Chen Zhuoyang was suddenly thrown into a bewildered state.

If he remembered correctly, he was still working on promoting the Generalized Modal Axiomatic System research this morning, but after just a nap, Qiao Yu was starting some laboratory framework?

So he cautiously probed, "Um... Junior Brother, I think I can somewhat understand what you’re saying, but I’m actually completely clueless in this area!"
