One had to know that Raymond’s research institute was almost certain to be one of the hottest research institutes in the future!
In a place like this, who wouldn’t want to make a name for themselves?
“Raymond, you’re here?”
“Raymond, welcome back!”
“Welcome back, big hero!”
As soon as he opened the door, before Principal Rawls could say anything, the other professors rushed forward!
Principal Rawls was dumbfounded!
In the end, he directly lost his temper!
“You bunch of old guys, get lost!”
When Principal Rawls lost his temper, his power was still there.
After all, this was a military academy. When these professors were young, most of them had been beaten up by Principal Rawls!
It was only recently that the principal had become old, so they didn’t continue to be beaten up!
“Principal, we’re just expressing our inner excitement!” an old professor grumbled unwillingly.
Rawls sneered.
“You think I don’t know you? Don’t you just want to put your name in Raymond’s research institute? How could Raymond agree to such a thing? Each and every one of you are almost a thousand years old. You have no manners at all!”
When Rawls sneered, what he said was the truth. Everyone looked at each other and couldn’t help but feel a little awkward.
They could tell.
This Principal Rawls was using his anger to pressure him!
Raymond was currently the most popular expert. He was so young, yet his academic contributions were so great!
It could be said that it was impossible for his research institute to be short of people. There were even many experts and professors who didn’t need salaries at all. They were all willing to work for Raymond for free!
Why?
How many things could they learn from Raymond!?
Putting everything else aside, there were a total of dozens of scientists who participated in the ‘red and ultraviolet insulation technology’ project, including the fighter jet coating. In the end, almost everyone had learned innumerable advanced knowledge!
Moreover, they had received a national reward!
They had never encountered such an honor in decades!
Such treatment, such academic ability, and such ability to solve problems…
It was simply a joy for whoever found it!
Of course, now that Raymond was fully-fledged, it was unlikely that he would work under anyone else. He was already qualified to establish his own research institute!
However, there were also countless big shots who were willing to work under him!
Who didn’t know that the country would definitely give the greatest support to such a hot celebrity!?
If you wanted money, you had money. If you wanted people, you had people!
Some of the projects that the country was researching might even be directly handed over to the Raymond Research Institute!
This was the reputation of a celebrity!
Therefore, in fact, it wasn’t just the professors at West Point who were like this. Other professors in the scientific research world also wanted to have some relations with the Raymond Research Institute!
Now, Rawls was taking advantage of his anger to give Raymond a chance to respond.
No matter what, Raymond was at least a student of West Point, right? You couldn’t not give him face and not give him a spot!
Of course, Rawls also knew how to negotiate, so he included everyone in the room!
Rawls did not have much hope for everyone to be recruited. It was almost impossible!
For a research institute of this level, recruitment was very strict!
Although West Point Military Academy was also a famous school, there weren’t that many of these old fellows who had real talent. It would be good if half of them were recruited!
After scolding these professors, he cleared them out one by one.
In the office, only Raymond, Rawls, and Hansen were left.
Professor Hansen looked very happy. He had been blocked out of the crowd just now!
“Raymond, ignore them. They are just a bunch of old guys. The more they live, the worse they get!”
Rawls was also feeling complicated.
He had already warned Raymond, but Raymond only smiled and greeted everyone. He did not respond at all.
He could not see what he was thinking at all!
Rawls was a little confused. Was this really the manners of an eighteen-year-old young man?
He could not see through it!
While Rawls was feeling emotional, he could not help but go up and shake Raymond’s hand.
“Welcome back to West Point!”
Raymond smiled and pulled out his hand to salute!
“Principal, a student reporting for duty!”
Although this etiquette was a military salute, Raymond used the form of address between a teacher and a student!
In this way, the distance between the two of them was instantly shortened!
Rawls laughed out loud and patted Raymond’s shoulder hard!
“Good boy, come, sit down and talk!”
The few of them sat down, and Hanson was the first to speak.
“Raymond, how long are you planning to stay this time?”
Raymond thought for a moment and replied, “I reckon that before the completion of the research institute, I should be here and not go out! I also want to experience the life of a student!”
“That’s fine!”
Rawls nodded!
As long as Raymond wanted to, he could stay at West Point for as long as he wanted!
He could even provide food and accommodation at West Point!
Hansen heard the meaning in Raymond’s words and asked in surprise, “Has the location of the research institute been confirmed?”
Although it was not difficult to build a building or something like that now, however, it wasn’t easy to design and build a research institute that would last for more than a hundred years!
From the functional design, to the matching of the buildings, to the official commencement of construction, the preparatory work would take at least a month to complete!
And what Raymond said just now seemed to mean that the location of the research institute had been determined?
The location of the research institute was usually determined after all kinds of buildings had been confirmed!
In other words, in less than two weeks, the various designs of the research institute had already been completed?
Raymond nodded with a smile and said, “It’s in the suburbs of White West District, not far from our school!”
White West District’s suburbs, not far from our school…
These two sentences made Rawls burst into laughter!
“Good! Good… Raymond, this choice of yours is something that we didn’t expect!”
Although the West District was the most developed area in the United States, it was also because of this that many research institutes, schools, and scientific research institutions didn’t like to set up in the West District because it was too noisy!
At first, Rawls also thought that Raymond would set the location of the research institute a little further away from the West District.
Who knew that it would be in the suburbs!
This time, it was practically next to West Point!
With such a favorable location, wouldn’t it be easy for West Point to get something?
Seeing Rawls’ expectant gaze, Raymond smiled helplessly and gave his bottom line.
“Principal, I can give you seven quotas. You can choose seven professors from our school to join my research institute. Whether it’s in name, full-time, or part-time, I can do it!”
“This is also the maximum quota I can give you! I just hope that you won’t be reluctant to part with a truly talented person!”
Rawls was stunned when he heard that, but he was immediately overjoyed!
