Chapter 71 71 [Finally figured it out]
"Leonard, I'm not trying to expose your scars. I know that it's not easy for you to grow up, you have a heavy childhood shadow, but you really need to change." Xiang Nan persuaded, "You can't always let Sheldon dominate You, you can't always let the shadow of childhood affect you. You have grown up and can control your own life, don't be controlled by anyone anymore.
If you make up your mind, our friends will help you out of the shadows. At that time, when you join our team, you will become the core of the team.
Once the quantum navigation system is mass-produced and applied on a large scale, we will all gain both fame and fortune. At that time, you no longer have to feel inferior in front of your mother, and you can also feel proud in front of your brothers and sisters.
But first of all, you have to make up your mind to save yourself. We have all seen "The Shawshank Redemption", the strong save themselves, and the saint saves others. If you don't even have the determination to save yourself, we friends can't help you either. "
After listening to him, Howard couldn't help applauding, "Leonard, I don't know what kind of growth experience you have. But I know that your current life is very abnormal.
You are just Sheldon's roommate, you are not his slave, you shouldn't let him control everything about you, it's time for you to leave him. "
"To be honest, it's really too much for you to be his driver and servant at the same time." Leslie also agreed.
"That's enough, don't say any more." Leonard waved his hands in pain, "I'm leaving first, goodbye everyone." Afterwards, he hurriedly opened the office door and walked out.
"Raj, how do you know so much about Leonard?" After he left, Leslie asked curiously.
"You look for Dr. Beverly Hofstadter's papers and books, and you will know as much as I do." Xiang Nan sighed, "His mother is completely studying him as a test object Yes, he wrote down all the things from childhood to adulthood in detail and did research.
Did you know that she once buried an Easter egg for Leonard to find on Easter, and Leonard couldn't find it in June. In the end, I realized that there was no egg at all. "
"Oh my God." Peggy couldn't help but sigh when she heard it.
Easter was in March, and Leonard searched for it for three full months before he realized it was a scam.
It is indeed too cruel for his mother to lie to him like this just to use him as an experiment.
Howard and Leslie couldn't help frowning after hearing this.
They didn't even dare to think about how the young Leonard went all over the house looking for Easter eggs with anticipation. After searching hard for three months, I was told that it was just an experiment.
This is really too shocking.
If I were Leonard, I'm afraid I'd cry to death.
"Raj, do you think Leonard can make up his mind to save himself?" Howard asked with concern.
"It's hard to say. In short, I have put the way out in front of him. If he is willing to get rid of Sheldon's control and join our scientific research team, I guarantee that he will be successful and proud." Xiang Nan shook his head and said, " But if he can't make up his mind, then it's useless to help him."
"That's true." Howard nodded, "I hope he can muster up the courage."
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan, Howard, and Leslie are constantly recruiting talents for the research and development of the quantum navigation system.
Because their scientific research funds are sufficient, the initial investment is as high as one billion US dollars, so they can offer higher salaries.
Xiang Nan, Leslie, and Howard are the R&D cores, and their salaries have tripled, reaching an annual salary of 250,000 U.S. dollars.
Moreover, as a dangerous peak in the scientific research world, the quantum navigation system has attracted many talents to climb, hoping to conquer this peak.
Many experts and scholars would rather give up their lucrative jobs than join them.
So, in less than a week, the research and development team has reached twelve people, which has tripled compared to the previous number.
The joining of these talents has also greatly strengthened the R&D strength of the team.
In order to show the importance attached to this project, the school specially opened a new laboratory on the top floor of the physics building. Not only the space is larger, but also the safety factor is higher. Retina scans are required for entry and exit to avoid theft of this advanced technology.
…
Roof, laboratory.
"It's been seven days, and Leonard hasn't made a decision yet." Howard sighed to Xiang Nan while sipping his coffee.
He is living a very comfortable life now. His monthly salary has tripled, which has greatly improved his financial situation.
As the inventor of the quantum navigation system, his name has often appeared in the media in recent days, which has greatly increased his popularity.
MIT even sent word that it was willing to include him in the list of famous alumni. Such fame and fortune made him naturally happy.
But while he was enjoying himself, he couldn't help but think of Leonard. Wealth and adversity are good friends.
"I haven't received the news." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "It's no wonder. He stayed in the shadow of his childhood for too long, and it's normal that he can't get out for a while."
In the play, near the finale, Leonard reconciles with his mother and forgives the harm she has caused herself over the years.
Leonard was married at the time, had a beautiful wife with a good income, and she was pregnant. His happy little family gave him courage and motivation to get out of the shadow of childhood.
Now, Leonard is still alone, and his relationship with Penny is inseparable. Except for Sheldon, a weird guy, there are no other friends who can make friends. Even Xiang Nan and Howard are estranged from him.
Under such circumstances, it was indeed difficult for him to get out.
However, if he doesn't even have the courage to step out, then Xiang Nan doesn't know how to help him.
After all, Xiang Nan is not a saint, he cannot get over others.
Just then, the phone rang suddenly.
Xiang Nan picked it up and saw that it was Leonard calling.
He couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, this is really not talking about people during the day, and not talking about ghosts at night.
Xiang Nan immediately answered the phone, "Hi, Leonard~"
"Raj, I want to join your team." Leonard said straight to the point.
"Okay, it seems that you have finally figured it out." Xiang Nan said in surprise, "Well, let's have lunch together and study hard."
"Okay." Leonard nodded.
