“As I mentioned in those projects yesterday, if anyone could complete them before I do by relying on their own abilities, I will personally reward you with 500 million dollars. But let me return the ancient Chinese saying to you: know thyself. So, I can make another promise: join me, and you’ll get at least too million.”

By bringing up the past, other people were perplexed, but the minds of those from the Linton Research Institute, such as Raulsen, Ethan Evans, and Nathan Stanford, became active.

The best trick to poaching is money.

But to poach top scientists, the best thing to use isn’t just money, but dreams as well.

For example, when Harrison Clark poached Rainer.

The key to winning Rainer over was not the life-saving grace.

Rainer was grateful to Harrison Clark but didn’t necessarily follow his own life philosophy.

He himself was an individual driven by an ambition for making a difference in

the world, money was not his motivation.

He didn’t even seek fame.

At the age of 26, he had already won the Fields Medal, which made him famous enough.

The reason behind Rainer’s inclination towards China in his personal beliefs, being a Chinese-American, was not just his recognition of his heritage, but also his similar understanding of the future as Harrison, as a person of Asian ethnicity who grew up in a prejudiced external environment.

A cold war between nations benefits none; the only way out is to eliminate differences.

But China cannot let other countries change its system; it can only change itself.

The only way to eliminate differences, then, is to let China, which has always had a stronger sense of mission since ancient times, return to its rightful position.

Similar to Harrison Clark’s leadership thinking, humanity needs leaders as individuals, and civilization needs leader-like nations.

Whether it is out of Harrison Clark’s personal patriotic sentiment or Rainer’s more rational and neutral judgment, the best choice for a leading nation is the rejuvenating China.

Although Rainer’s judgment is rational, his determination to put his personal beliefs into practice is no less than any Chinese person s.

What impressed Rainer was when Harrison Clark was discussing with Carrie Thomas the song that could ignite human emotions and increase the power of civilization, as well as Harrison’s astounding academic ability.

However, Rainer never asked Harrison why a person who could be such a highly qualified scholar still writes songs and operates in the entertainment industry.

Now, besides Carrie Thomas, Rainer might be the second person in the world to admire Harrison Clark deeply. In his eyes, no matter what Harrison does, it always has its reasons, which ordinary people simply cannot understand.

in front of Harrison, Rainer puts himself as an ordinary person, not daring to make unfounded assumptions about Harrison’s intentions.

The conception of “Morning Wind” demonstrated a higher level of rationality and emotion than Rainer’s own beliefs. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Rainer, like Carrie, could always feel that unshakable determination and resolve from Harrison’s actions and the subtlest eye gestures, even though it may not have been apparent to Harrison or anyone else.

Just like the fire-stealer Prometheus or the God of Agriculture who tasted hundreds of herbs.

Confidants need not say much, and Rainer is proving everything with his actions.

Harrison is now throwing the same dreams at a group of equally intelligent and ambitious intellectuals, albeit with a lifetime of restraint due to their upbringing and societal expectations.

And he gives both money and dreams.

Just thinking about any of the project titles he mentioned yesterday would be enough to send shivers down their spines.

The most devilish thing about Harrison is that his bait consists not only of theories but also of practice.

Although his pace in practical research seems to be slower than his theories, it’s all logical and reasonable.

Now it seems like he is about to poach a significant number of the Linton Research Institute’s best talents.

However, since this is someone else’s territory, Harrison knew when to stop and simply stated his principles for poaching.

No need for your loyalty, we are in a cooperative relationship.

I will provide core research resources and direction, and you will form project teams and take responsibility for areas you are most skilled at under the assistance of Rainer, the head of the Summit Research Institute.

But 1 won’t take everyone. This is a strict, two-way selection process, and we’ll discuss the specifics later.”

After saying his piece, Harrison went to the boarding gate, remaining silent. After Harrison left, the other people in the cafe surrounded those from Linton Research Institute, asking about the projects Harrison mentioned.

Raulsen and the others thought for a while and shared the names of the projects Harrison had mentioned.

As for how many people were truly interested in the projects, Harrison didn’t care much. After all, his strategy was to cast a wide net, and even catching one would be fortunate.

He couldn’t possibly take all the experts under his wing.

He didn’t have the energy to manage them all, and poor management could inhibit individuals from maximizing their potential, creating more harm than benefit and making it better to stay in their original positions.

In short, having one would be a great achievement, two would be a windfall, and three would make things serious, perhaps requiring him to swim back to the UK underwater.

After boarding the plane, Harrison didn’t expect that his business class seatmate would also have a Chinese face.

This was a friendly-faced middle-aged man, twirling two pieces of green jade balls in his hand, skillful and experienced without making any noise.

When Harrison settled into his seat, their eyes met and exchanged a smile instinctively.

“Mr. Clark, hello.”

A few minutes after the plane took off, the man leaned over and greeted him. His voice was low, his Chinese not too standard, and it was a London dialect. The conversation was so fast that one had to listen carefully to understand..
