The laboratory went silent for a minute.
Professor Lazerson rubbed his nose and said, "Sorry, what did you just say? I didn't hear you."
Lu Zhou: "I'm saying that I can solve the funding problem."
Professor Lazerson looked at Lu Zhou like he was an alien before he spoke in disbelief.
"You sure?"
Professor Lazerson wasn't the only one in disbelief; the engineers standing next to him couldn't believe what they were hearing.
Lu Zhou: "I am sure."
Professor Lazerson smiled and shook his head as he said, "Your prize money isn't enough. Even if you win both the Fields Medal and Nobel Prize and sell the medals next year, it still won't be enough."
There had been people who sold their Nobel Prize medals in the past, but Lu Zhou would never do something like that…
At least for now, he wasn't lacking money.
Lu Zhou sighed and didn't try to explain. Instead, he asked, "How much will it cost?"
