Chapter 240, Jonathan Owen and the research on cross-time and space technology. In
New York City, in the laboratory of a private research institute, a middle-aged man in a white coat was sitting in front of the computer and typing something.
After a while, a woman also wearing a white coat walked in from the door. She put her hand on the man's shoulder and said softly: "Dr. Owen, you haven't slept for two days. It's time to take a rest."
After hearing the woman's persuasion, Jonathan Owen also saved the data he had just created on the computer, then stood up, turned to look at her and said softly: "I'm sorry to worry you again, Sylvia." "Me too
. I didn't expect it has been two days. Every time I concentrate on work, I always lose track of time."
Looking at Ouen's tired face, Sylvia also handed him a cup of freshly brewed hot cocoa: "We The experiment has reached the final stage, and it's time for you to relax appropriately." "
After all, if you really fall ill, then our experiment is really in trouble." "
Don't push yourself too hard, Ou Dr. En, we have experienced so many difficulties, and now the experiment has reached the final stage. Soon we will be able to make a report and get scientific research funds." "When this technology is used in the future, our laboratory
will I will definitely enter the ranks of top laboratories." "
So after drinking this cup of hot cocoa, go and take a rest. Our laboratory will not be without you in the future."
After hearing Sylvia's vision of a bright future, Jonathan. Owen was also drinking hot cocoa while looking at her face with a gentle smile.
Fortunately, Sylvia, his assistant, was always with him, otherwise he would not have been able to complete the experiment by himself. The various difficulties encountered in the process alone were enough to make him flinch.
After finishing the cocoa in one gulp, Jonathan Owen also put the cup in his hand on the table, then cheered up and said to Sylvia: "Don't worry, I know my body." "
This There is only the last bit of a model left. I will go to rest after summarizing this. You can work on other things first." "
Really? I don't want to see you sitting here when I come back in a few hours." Xi Sylvia looked at Jonathan Owen with some suspicion. It was obvious that there had been instances like this before. She had promised to go to rest, but when she came back after a while, he was still sitting here working.
Jonathan Ouen also smiled when he heard this, yawned and then promised firmly: "I really feel a little sleepy, so don't worry, I will definitely go to rest soon." After hearing this, Jonathan Ouen
said En's promise, seeing the tiredness and tiredness on his face, Sylvia finally nodded, and after a few words of advice, she walked out of the laboratory to do other work.
Thinking of Sylvia leaving, the smile on Jonathan Owen's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a bit of sadness.
In fact, the current situation in the laboratory is not optimistic, which is why he works so hard. He did not tell Sylvia the real situation because he did not want to make her worry.
Now the laboratory's funds are about to run out, but they still need a large amount of funds to form complete experimental results and reports.
He has been working hard these days to see if he can reduce this process and use all the remaining funds to complete these tasks.
However, after working all night for two days, although he still gained something, he still couldn't complete the work with the remaining funds.
He had been conducting this experiment for several years and could not delay it any longer. It had already been two years since Sylvia came to help him.
At first, his experiment had a lot of staff, but slowly many people left, and now only he and Sylvia are left.
It's a bit unlucky to say that their working laboratory originally relied on funding from the famous entrepreneur and philanthropist Wilson Fisk to conduct scientific experiments.
But who would have known that the other party suddenly died suddenly some time ago, and a lot of black material was also found out.
The famous entrepreneur and philanthropist Wilson Fisk's true identity is actually Kingpin, the leader of the New York underworld, who has committed a lot of crimes.
The sudden death of Wilson Fisk and the exposure of the black information not only caused their laboratory to lose funding, but also because of its close relationship with the underworld, they were banned and censored by the government for a long time before they were allowed to continue research.
This incident caused them to lose a lot of manpower. Basically, most of them left during this period, with only a few left.
Then several more people left after subsequent funding shortages and project difficulties, and in the end only he and Sylvia were left.
It's not like he hasn't thought of other ways to solve the problem, such as finding investment from other companies, groups or individuals to continue research.
But because of Wilson Fisker's affairs and involvement, most companies are not willing to have too much involvement with them.
Although Stark Group and Industry Zero don't care about these things, they have a higher vision and look down on their projects at all.
Although their project is called cross-time and space research, which sounds very high-end, it is actually a bit difficult to implement, even a bit mysterious, and it is not the current mainstream at all.
Moreover, for Jonathan Owen, a scientist with little fame or achievements, the risk of investment is indeed a bit high. We don’t know when their results will be realized and what they can be used for. Who would be blind to invest?
After failing to raise funds through legitimate channels, Jonathan Owen also thought about looking for some underworld bosses to invest. After all, Wilson Fisker was a underworld boss before, and people in the underworld always had no idea about their previous identities. mind.
With this idea in mind, Jonathan Owen found Silverman, the current gangster in New York, after several rounds of research. He enthusiastically introduced his research to him, hoping to get some investment.
But it was a pity that Silverman had no interest in their experiments at all. He was even a little angry at his persistent efforts to attract investment, so he sent someone to beat him up and drive him out.
After running into obstacles one after another, Jonathan Owen was also a little frustrated and desperate, but thinking about the experiment that was about to be completed and Sylvia who had been accompanying him to encourage him, he gritted his teeth and persisted.
In the end, he packaged up and sold all his previous research results, and mortgaged his only property. Only then did he raise the last fund, which he has used until now.
But now this small amount of funds is about to be used up, and he really doesn't know how to get more funds.
