When he saw the person who came, even Lu Fan was stunned.

Wang Mingtang introduced Lu Fan to:

"These are Professor Zhen, Professor Qian, Professor Chen..."

Lu Fan had no idea what Wang Mingtang was up to, but seeing him frequently giving him meaningful glances, he first invited the three scholars to sit down in the conference room.

While his secretary came to bring water, Wang Mingtang briefly introduced the three professors:

"They are all leading figures in our country's scientific and technological circles."

A leading authority in biology, physics, and mechanics.

The more the explanation was given, the more confused Lu Fan became.

"Brother Wang, why did you bring people to headquarters so abruptly without telling me why?"

Wang Mingtang swallowed hard, just as he was about to try to persuade them.

Professor Chen, however, took the initiative to speak:

"Hey, don't make things difficult for Xiao Wang. Let's handle our own affairs." "We were being abrupt for not giving you prior notice. We're just glad we didn't interfere with your work."

Lu Fan quickly said it wouldn't take any time, and even mentioned his relationship with Wang Mingtang. The professors saw that he spoke to Wang Mingtang with a relaxed demeanor, which didn't seem like the rumors circulating that Lu Fan had a grudge against the Wang family.

Even if there are grudges, they have nothing to do with the two of them.

Professors Zhen and Qian were clearly straightforward people. Seeing that Professor Chen had said a few polite words, they felt the time was right and spoke again:

“Mr. Lu, you’ve funded many graduate students and laboratories here, so you must know that those of us who do scientific research aren’t very good at talking.” “I think we should just say why we’re here.”

Lu Fan laughed and said, "That's exactly right. I'm used to dealing with Brother Wang, and I know he wouldn't cheat me."

After turning his back to the professors, Lu Fan didn't forget to glare at Wang Mingtang, whose face was full of embarrassment.

The professors seemed to find the matter somewhat embarrassing to discuss.

This made Lu Fan even more puzzled, but he didn't rush to help. Finally, Professor Chen spoke up, saying:

"I'll do it. I've already given up my old face, no matter how many times I've done it."

"Mr. Lu, we saw your car factory's advertisement and your battery factory's new product launch some time ago."

"I made some inquiries inside and heard that Lao Cheng's project is currently being funded by your Fanyue Group?"

Lu Fan was first surprised, then smiled and said:

"Are you referring to Professor Cheng's new energy project? It is indeed the laboratory that our Fanyue Group has built."

Professor Zhen and Professor Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and Professor Chen then said:

"That's right, a few of us are working on a joint project, and we've been researching it for several years, but we haven't seen any progress yet."

"As it happens, we have witnessed Professor Cheng's stumbling journey back to China, the hardships he faced in seeking funding and assistance, and the investments your Fanyue Group has made."

"I was thinking of asking someone to come to you and ask you to take a look at our project and see if you could invest in us."

"The lab used to have funding, but now it seems there's little hope, and people aren't willing to continue investing."

After all, those who do scientific research can make money, but the investment period is just too long.

The returns are uncertain, and few people treat Professor Cheng's project with the same care and attention as Lu Fan.

So, after failing to secure funding, the professors, after making inquiries from various sources, approached Fanyue Group.

Lu Fan's company was also considered by several professors.

First of all, their projects involve multiple fields.

Not only is it difficult to achieve results in a short period of time, but companies and enterprises with specific projects are also not very interested.

Fanyue Group has numerous financial investments in biotechnology, machinery, physics, and even new energy.

Several professors, with a try-it-out attitude, approached Wang Mingtang, who was in charge of the city government.

The Wang family has little interest in scientific research.

But Wang Mingtang was different.

He has always had a high vantage point and a broad perspective, and he saw through the various interests behind it all.

If Lu Fan could sign these professors like he signed Professor Cheng...

Then, like with new energy, not only will electric vehicles explode in popularity, but the entire battery industry will also be overturned.

That would undoubtedly be a huge political asset for Nanshan City.

This will also become Wang Mingtang's solid and substantial achievements.

So he took the initiative to visit them and act as a matchmaker!

After listening to the professors' words, Lu Fan understood and smiled, "So that's what it is. It's not difficult to handle!"

"I've heard about the projects of several professors, and they haven't made little progress over the years."

“It just so happens that our group also has some funding for this every year.” The professors were utterly astonished.

In recent years, project funding approvals have become increasingly difficult.

This isn't the first time everyone has swallowed their pride and stepped out of the lab to seek sponsorship.

No one expected things to go so smoothly.

They were still worried that if they went to Lu Fan's house rashly, Lu Fan would think they were scammers.

They even tried to bring Wang Mingtang along before daring to come over.

Perhaps it was because everything went too smoothly.

Everyone was somewhat incredulous at the loss.
