Chapter 124: Are these people...all crazy?
Many people do not realize that in the era of mobile Internet, everyone becomes an information node as long as they have a smartphone.
This naturally includes professors from Huaqing and Yanbei.
Their original intention is just to share a great big melon with their colleagues, classmates and friends. Even before posting the pictures or videos, I didn’t think much about it at all.
But the fact is that when a powerful enough photo appears in a group with more than two people, the fission-type Internet communication effect is inevitable.
Not to mention that it's not just a group of two people. Many professors form a large group of dozens or even hundreds of people at once. They don't just post one at a time, but directly send in groups. Anyway, as long as the two big guys are not in the group, you can post it.
After all, even mathematics professors at top universities in China are all ordinary people. Their emotions and emotions are similar to those of normal people, and their nature to eat melons is also similar. It's just that the things that everyone is usually interested in are different, and the way and content of eating melon are naturally different.
So while Qiao Yu's lecture was in progress, photos of Yuan Zhengxin and Tian Yanzhen in the same frame began to flood many professors' circles of friends.
In Yanbei University, Xue Song had just put down a paper and opened WeChat on his mobile phone. He planned to check the circle of friends to relax. As soon as he opened it, he saw a photo like this. Qiao Yu was standing next to Mr. Yuan. Next to him, on the other side was a foreign professor, and Tian Yanzhen stood opposite Mr. Yuan.
Although Tian Yanzhen is just a side face from this angle in the photo, anyone who has seen Tian Yanzhen can easily recognize him.
The other party's caption was: "Another scene I've seen for a long time. I thought I would never see such a scene in my lifetime."
Xue Song was a little lost looking at the photo.
In fact, ever since Qiao Yu called Yuan Zhengxin without hesitation that day and said a bunch of nonsense, Xue Song had guessed that such a day would definitely come.
But he really didn't expect that this day would come so suddenly and so quickly.
Shaked his head and continued to browse Moments. Soon more photos came out...
There's even a video.
In the video, Qiao Yu and Mr. Yuan are standing in front of the big screen in the lecture hall. Mr. Yuan is speaking, "...Qiao Yu, I think everyone knows him. He is a rising star in the field of mathematics and a keynote speaker at Yanbei International." Students jointly trained by the Mathematics Research Center and our Huaqing Mathematics Research Center..."
After hearing this, Xue Song also understood the reason why Tian Yanzhen appeared at Qiao Yu's lecture at Huaqing University today. .
What a joint training...
However, Xue Song feels that this is indeed excellent for Qiao Yu, which means that no matter which resources Qiao Yu uses in the future, neither party will There will be too many opinions.
Maybe Tian Yanzhen thinks so too, right? Xue Song thought...
This point is actually very important.
After all, although the two mathematics centers were established by two leaders, it does not mean that the two bosses can completely ignore other people's ideas.
At this stage, Qiao Yu doesn't have much resources, so everyone has no objections.
But it will be hard to say in the future.
After all, Qiao Yu is a student at Yanbei University. Who would feel comfortable if he took away the resources from Huaqing University?
The world of mathematics does need geniuses, but if we grab resources that may belong to us, everyone may have different ideas.
If you take Mr. Yuan's age into account...
Xue Song could only sigh in his heart that the two big guys really thought deeply, and they were really worried about Qiao Yu. Everything he could think of and everything he couldn't think of, the two big guys had thought of.
To say that the two of them really gave up their grudge?
I'm afraid not necessarily.
It can only be said that the two of them chose the future at the same time.
After figuring this out, Xue Song was suddenly moved, and his eyes became wet unconsciously. The art of compromise in struggle is always so easy to make people excited.
He believed that neither of the two bosses told Qiao Yu this, but in a sense, both of them believed that Qiao Yu represented the future of the Chinese mathematics community.
I don’t know if that boy realizes it...
So Xue Song directly saved many different photos in the circle of friends to his mobile phone, and then directly came to a circle of friends with a nine-square grid...
“Today is April 8, 2025 AD. , Tuesday, the 11th day of the third lunar month, I believe. The history of Chinese mathematics will definitely record this day, no matter what form it takes."
...
When Xue Song sent this news out, the news had already spread throughout Chinese universities. , research institute... it spread throughout the professor circle.
Shuangdan University in Linhai, Yujiang University in Xiaozhou, Jiangcheng University in Jiangcheng, Xingnan University in Xingcheng, Shenzhen University in Shenzhou, Harbin University of Technology in the north, Guada University in Xilin, and even as far west as Frontier University...
Even the circle of academicians of the Academy of Sciences began to discuss this matter.
Internal discussions are still very reserved, but it is different on the Internet.
Qiao Yu’s lecture was just halfway through, and there were already a bunch of similar questions on Zhihu.
“Academician Tian Yanzhen made a historic appearance in the Century Lecture Hall of Huaqing University Library with Mr. Yuan. Does this mean that the master and apprentice, two leaders in mathematics, shook hands and said goodbye ten years after they turned against each other? And? It is said that the opportunity for the two to shake hands and reconcile was Qiao Yu who appeared in many photos. Is this true? "
No way, by this time the news had spread from the professor circle to the student circle.
Don’t underestimate the appeal of knowing potential hot topics to young people. At least from the perspective of math students, this question is bound to be on the hot list, because their various group chats are already full of discussion, and if you don't read it for a while, it will be 99+.
Although not everyone knows about this, those who do know are constantly popularizing the past events in the group.
No matter what the group is doing, they almost all come out to eat!
The most important thing is that this matter was very popular back then. It was not only the math circle that was taking advantage of it, but everyone was taking advantage of it...
Of course, it was not just the questioner who thought so. , for the platform, every issue that attracts a lot of attention or is likely to become a hot topic will naturally have staff to follow it.
Even handle the heat of the problem manually.
Of course, if you ask and there is no such thing, it means they are all algorithms. As we slowly enter the era of intelligence, algorithms and big data are not only productivity, but also tools for taking blame.
Naturally, by the time Qiao Yu’s lecture ended, the issue of the century-old reconciliation between the two major figures in the Chinese mathematics community had already ranked among the top three on the Zhihu hot list.
Yes, the three questions are all about the two people appearing together. It's just that the photos quoted are different and the focus of the questions is different.
Among them, Qiao Yu also stole the limelight from the two big guys, accounting for one.
After all, there is really only one student jointly trained by Yanbei and Huaqing Mathematics Research Centers for so many years. Not to mention that Qiao Yu is only sixteen years old, and should be at the age to study in a talent class.
As we all know, the mathematics elite classes on both sides are run by the Academy of Mathematical Sciences and have little to do with the research centers...
The two mathematics research centers of Yanbei and Huaqing both started recruiting masters. Graduate students will not be admitted to undergraduate students at all.
So this little brother Qiao Yu, how can He De win this honor? At his age, shouldn't he just follow the undergraduates and take classes with professors? So is there anything different about this guy?
Don’t say CMO is number one!
Every year there is a number one CMO, and there is never a shortage of candidates with perfect scores, but after so many years, no one has been valued by the two major research centers.
If there are questions, there will be answers.
It’s just that the answers to this question are messy and include everything.
But soon an answer was pushed up.
"Haha... I can only say that you have little knowledge. I can't believe that there are still people who doubt Qiao Yu's background. Let's put it this way, it is indeed possible for both parties to cultivate an awesome background at the same time, but please be a little bit Use your brains, how awesome does it take for two big guys to show up to support him at the same time? Can't it be done by two professors?
The reason why it is Qiao Yu and not someone else is just two words, strength! If any of you can reach the age of sixteen, read a few books and read a few papers, the paper you write will be selected by Ann.Math and will be published soon.
Students who don’t understand the weight of Ann.Math can check it out. In addition, it only took him one month to find a loophole in the proof of the geometric Langlands conjecture, which has been very popular in the mathematics community recently. This series of proofs has been praised by many world mathematics leaders, including Peter Schultz.
Yes, the video you are watching is Qiao Yu sharing his ideas and experience of finding loopholes in the proof of the geometric Langlands conjecture with mathematicians who study the geometric Langlands conjecture. Let alone sixteen years old, no professor who is sixty-six years old can do it.
Believe me, if you can do any of the above things, you will be regarded as a treasure by the two big bosses, and they will even stand up for you personally. I know conspiracy theorists won’t believe anything they say. At the end of the article, I will show you some of Qiao Yu's manuscripts. Only if you can understand them will you be qualified to comment on him.
Don’t ask me why I know this, my office is just above his. As long as I pay attention, I can pay attention to his every move. To be honest, I was not angry, but the fact is that I am about to graduate with my PhD this year, and my achievements are not even a fraction of Qiao Yu’s!
But what can be done? It can only be said that there are two tracks in mathematics, one is for ordinary geniuses, and the other is for high-end geniuses to show off their skills. Do you know why I am confused? I just suffered too many blows at the research center, so I came here to answer professional questions to gain some confidence.
Do you know why people like Qiao Yu most likely won’t become a new answerer in a place like Zhihu? Because he can easily find confidence from doctors like me, or even the professors around him! ”
There are more than a dozen pictures placed under the answer, all of which are draft papers that Qiao Yuli usually uses for deduction and calculation. There are also various sketches on them that look messy to outsiders.
Drafts Naturally, it has its logic, but as long as you can understand it, you don't need to use non-verbs. The wording is very rigorous so that others can understand it, so to others it looks like a pile of symbols.
The most shocking thing is the last picture, a dozen pieces of manuscript paper are stacked so casually in the office. There seems to be something on the table that everyone can't understand.
Of course, everyone understands the strong character of Zhihu.
When most people come up with such an answer, probably no one pays attention. After all, this is a place full of magical stories.
But the respondent not only has the badge of the 2023 New Knowledge Respondent, but has also passed real-name authentication. He is a Ph.D. from Yanbei International Mathematics Research Center. Looking through this guy’s past answers, almost all of them are for mathematics majors. Professional answers to questions, especially questions about geometric directions.
The answers given were not only well received by the questioners, but also the credibility of the answers soared when ordinary people could not understand them at all.
In the era of professional segmentation, human wisdom is not only reflected in the understanding of professional knowledge, but also in the awe of professional knowledge that one does not understand.
There is no doubt that both the respondent's previous answers and the manuscripts he released have done this perfectly. Even if his answer is a little unpleasant.
What does it mean to be the answerer on Zhihu just to gain confidence? Hey... I can only say that this kid really found the right place.
Although there have even been figures like doctoral supervisors appearing on Zhihu over the years, they are in the minority after all, and mathematics has its own particularities.
Quantum physics is also very abstract, but it can be listened to as a story.
But it is difficult to tell the geometric Langlands conjecture into a story.
Some people didn't believe it and searched for Geometry Langlands Conjecture. In the era of smart Internet, pure English papers can be directly translated into Chinese using artificial intelligence, and then they came back confused.
“Holy shit, what are these things? Functors, stacks, homogeneity, star modular surfaces, pseudo-modular forms... Is this artificial intelligence making up words or is the mathematics I learned different from this mathematics? Is there anything different? Why can’t I understand what they want to say?” More than four digits, no more than three digits for the results. Regardless of the results, they are all quite awesome! Let’s put it this way, this is an area that no one in mathematics dares to touch.”
“As for this Qiao Yu… ...Is his sixteen-year-old age a little different from other people's sixteen-year-olds? I think it's impossible for a normal person to start to be exposed to Langlands' conjecture at the age of sixteen, right? He can still find loopholes in others? Right?”
There is another hot comment in the comment area.
"Fuck! This Qiao Yu is my junior high school classmate! There is such an awesome person in our Class 13? Does that mean I am pretty awesome too?"
"A great person in the key class Right? Then shouldn’t you be in high school now? Why can you still play during class time today? Huh?”
“No, what kind of key class is it? How awesome is Class 13 of Xingtie Middle School? Go and find out. In the vocational school I go to, the teachers don’t check their mobile phones during class, okay? "
The "? ?" in the lower row probably shows people's troubles.
After all, the classmates are of the same age. Some have become mathematical geniuses trained by the two major mathematics centers of Huaqing and Yanbei, while others are attending vocational schools. The contrast seems too great and it is indeed difficult. Make people understand.
Most people don't believe it. But when the other party came up with a trump card and sent a group photo of the class and circled the locations of Qiao Yu and himself...
The comment was deleted not long after.
There is no other reason, mainly because the news has reached Xingtie No. 1 Middle School.
Coincidentally, even Principal He saw this question and noticed the answer. When he saw that there was a former boss from Class 13 playing on Quora in the comment area and even posted a photo, Almost went berserk.
It only took twenty minutes to contact this classmate who was in class at a vocational school in Star City and was playing Quora on his mobile phone...
When the news became so popular on Zhihu that even the principal of the middle school saw it, it was enough to show that the matter had broken the circle.
It even triggered a hot search on Weibo. After all, this is the base camp for eating melon. A melon in the academic circle, isn’t that also a melon?
Many popular science accounts even retold events from more than ten years ago, and then focused on the achievements of these two people in the world of mathematics, telling everyone that Mr. Yuan and Academician Tian appeared in the same photo. How valuable.
Moreover, the self-media on Weibo was obviously more bold, directly publishing the words "Reconciliation of the Century".
That’s all, the official Weibo of the Blue V certification of the Chinese Academy of Sciences - the Voice of the Chinese Academy of Sciences also liked this Weibo.
Good guy, the big guys at the Academy of Sciences are also taking advantage of it, right?
The official Weibo of Huaqing University also liked it, and the official Weibo of Yanbei University followed closely...
It directly made many Weibo netizens excited.
So many official accounts from China’s top academic circles came out to like it... This is a high-end game that only happens once in a century!
Anyway, God knows how many people were behind it, so this topic became popular on Weibo.
There is also an additional topic on the hot search list on Weibo: How awesome is Qiao Yu?
The answer of a doctor from the Yanbei International Mathematics Research Center on Knowhu was directly forwarded. According to the doctor’s description, most users on Knowhu already think Qiao Yu is awesome, but I’m sorry. Being on Weibo is obviously not enough, Qiao Yu still has to practice.
Of course, there is no way to explain to some Weibo users who ask, "Can he win a Nobel Prize in the future if he is so awesome?" There is actually no Nobel Prize in Mathematics. After all, they probably don't care if they have it or not. It's just too much food if they can't get it anyway.
But no matter what, Qiao Yu still became popular.
After becoming popular among friends, Gong Jiatao created a new group and dragged Yu Wei and Yu Yongjun into a new group to chat about Qiao Yu.
Gong Jiatao: "Fuck, fuck, fuck... Have you read the news on the Internet? This guy Qiao Yu is so popular!"
Yu Yongjun: "I saw it, I don’t know what to say, @ Cicada doesn’t know snow, please treat my eldest brother as Yu Weitong who pursues goals all his life "
Yu Wei: "..."
Yu Yongjun: "Brother, don't avoid the topic, just say whether you want to pursue it or not?"
Yu Yongjun: Wei: "If you don't want to chase a hammer, just get out of here!"
Gong Jiatao: "Don't use voice input, I can't understand! It's just like the geometric Langlands conjecture. I can't even understand the question... Why does Qiao Yu still participate in IMO? Isn't this adding to our worries? Isn’t it true that our paths are completely different?”
Yu Yongjun: “When a strong person climbs to the top, he also needs a background.”
< br>Yu Wei: “Get out! Aren’t you the background board?”
Yu Yongjun: “Of course I am not, I am the younger brother and follower of the elder brother. My loyalty can be learned from the sun and the moon. If the elder brother is not cool, I will die! By the way, you are treating the elder brother! Offended me already I took a screenshot. If you don’t want me to send your gossip to my brother, I suggest you V me fifty.”
Less than two seconds after this sentence was sent, Yu Yongjun saw a message: You have been removed from the group chat.
Ha...
This guy Lao Gong is so wretched!
......
That's what happened, after Qiao Yu had dinner with the two big guys. Almost the entire Internet is full of news about two big figures in the Chinese mathematics community shaking hands and making peace, interspersed with hot searches about Qiao Yu. The popularity of the topic even overshadowed the gossip about a celebrity who was photographed cheating during the Qingming Festival.
Obviously, it is impossible for the two big guys to shake hands and make peace out of nowhere. There must be some story in between.
However, as Qiao Yu's experience during this period was dug out, and after analysis by popular science bloggers, many people came to the conclusion that the answer was the question.
Mr. Yuan personally stood on the podium and officially announced that Qiao Yu had become a joint training candidate of the two major mathematics research centers of Yanbei and Huaqing. Isn’t this common ground revealed?
The effect was obvious. Qiao Yu didn't do anything, but his real-name verified Weibo account gained a lot of fans. After such a long time, there are only more than 30,000 fans, but after this matter became a hot search, Qiao Yu’s Weibo fans have already rushed towards 150,000 fans...
One topic soared by five times.
This made Xu Shu, who had been following Qiao Yu’s Weibo, very sad.
For no other reason, Qiao Yu seemed to have forgotten about Weibo again during this period. He had never logged in at all, let alone posted a new Weibo. The last Weibo post was the day he became the first CMO. Since that day, according to background records, Qiao Yu has not logged in.
With such great popularity, if Qiao Yu posts on Weibo again, wouldn’t the rate of increase in followers add to the popularity?
Furthermore, Qiao Yu’s traffic is very high-quality, so there is almost no possibility of overturning, and it is impossible to cause too much negative public opinion.
But now Xu Shu really doesn’t have the courage to keep sending messages to Qiao Yu like last time.
After all, even if Qiao Yu ranked first in CMO last time, he was just a middle school student.
But Qiao Yu is different now.
A close disciple of an academician, a joint training target of two major schools in China, a mathematical genius with high hopes from the Chinese mathematics community... In an instant, Xu Shu felt that he could only look up...
< br>
So he hesitated for a long time before carefully sending a message on WeChat...
He didn't even dare to ask "Are you there?"
Instead, he sent the suggestion directly into a paragraph.
“Student Qiao Yu, congratulations on your recent achievements. If you have time, you might as well log in to Weibo. The number of fans has increased very quickly today. If you can spare some free time, just post a Weibo recording your life. Bo, I believe the effect will be better. After all, this is also a voice channel on the Internet, isn’t it?”
But after the news was sent, it was like nothing.
But Xu Shu didn’t care.
The message can still be sent, which means that this future star in mathematics has not deleted his WeChat. Xu Shu feels that this has already given him a lot of face.
...
Xingcheng, Changjun Middle School, during dinner time, Xia Keke walked out of the classroom with her good friends in the same class, planning to go out for food. As soon as she walked out of the teaching building, she happened to meet the math teacher who was coming back from outside.
The two of them took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Teacher Yang."
"Well, hey, wait, Xia Keke, I remember that you went to Xingtie No. 1 Middle School in junior high school. Right?”
“Yes, Teacher Yang, what’s wrong?”
"Then do you recognize Qiao Yu? He is also from your Tieyi Middle School."
"Yes, Qiao Yu lives downstairs in my house. He is my brother. He went to Yanbei University. By the way, last time My paper was sent to me by brother Qiao Yu. "
When the math teacher asked Qiao Yu, Xia Keke immediately replied proudly.
"Then your brother is doing great now. He is now a joint training target of Yanbei International Mathematics Research Center and Huaqing Yuan Zhengxin Mathematics Research Center. He can solve world-class mathematical problems at the age of sixteen. I will wait for you in the future. I need to communicate with him more when I get into college."
Teacher Yang said with emotion.
"Huh? Is Qiao Yu so powerful now?" This news made Xia Keke and her best friend beside her widen their eyes.
After all, world-class math problems still sound scary to high school students, not to mention that they are certified by teachers themselves.
For a mathematics teacher who can establish himself in a science experimental class at a prestigious school like Changjun Middle School, there is no doubt about his teaching ability. At least it's enough to convince the top students in the class.
"It must be more powerful than you think. You can contact him more during the weekends. Find out about the mathematics summer camp at Yanbei University or Huaqing University." Teacher Yang gave a very vague suggestion.
He saw among his classmates that many sources had confirmed that Qiao Yu’s paper would definitely be published in Ann.Math next month. Even his junior fellow student when he was a Ph.D. student had posted Qiao Yu’s paper on the pre-publication website. The paper was downloaded and the evaluation given was very high.
Although he is only a high school teacher now, people who have read Ph.D. naturally know what it means to publish a paper on Ann.Math.
For undergraduates, it is not too much to graduate in place and be given the title of associate professor.
This is still under the current situation where non-thesis theory has been advocated. If he were left to study for a Ph.D., I am afraid that the school would directly release a staff and keep him.
For a student like this, it is probably just a matter of words to help the sister next door whom he knows well get a chance to go to summer camp to exercise.
As for two years later...
Even if the eighteen-year-old Qiao Yu was promoted to professor as an exception, Teacher Yang would not find it strange. At the age of sixteen, he could find loopholes in the proof process of the geometric Langlands conjecture. What he could do at the age of eighteen, the teacher did not dare to imagine.
"Huh? Teacher Yang, how did you know that Brother Qiao Yu also suggested that I go to the summer camp to exercise? But he said that I must first be able to independently solve the altitude training questions he mailed to me. Meaning. I feel like it's a little bit worse."
Xia Keke replied with some distress.
Qiao Yu sent her the so-called high-level training questions, but she could only solve about 40% of them independently. In other words, you can only score 40 points for a 100-point question, which is really shocking.
Teacher Yang shook his head and said, "Don't belittle yourself. The high-level questions Qiao Yu gave you are still very difficult. Generally speaking, the questions in the Women's Mathematics Olympiad are simpler than those high-level questions. Some.”
After saying that, Teacher Yang glanced at the female classmate beside Xia Keke and said with a smile: "Chen Xiwen, why don't you go to the cafeteria first?"
"Okay, Teacher Yang." The girl looked at Xia Keke Coco said: "Then I'll wait for you in the cafeteria first."
"Okay."
Teacher Yang said: "If it's okay, you go first, Xia Keke and I will split "We finished chatting in a while."
After watching the girl leave, Teacher Yang said, "Xia Keke, your grades are actually very good. You have to be confident. In this way, I will help you apply for this summer vacation." , although you may not be selected, but it’s good to go and see the world. By the way, you should tell Qiao Yu after submitting the materials.”
Xia Keke blinked and said, "Thank you, Teacher Yang."
"Okay, let's go eat." Teacher Yang said to Xia Keke with a smile, and then walked into the teaching building.
Actually, Chen Xiwen didn't go far either. Xia Keke took a few steps and caught up.
"Xia Keke, what did Teacher Yang just tell you?"
"Nothing, I just asked about something about my brother."
"Hmph, you are dishonest. I guess Teacher Yang must have asked your brother to help. To be honest, can you go to Yanbei University's math summer camp in the summer?"
"Don't make trouble, it's impossible. "My brother wouldn't do such a thing. Even if I tell him, he will do it on his own terms!"
Xia Keke corrected her best friend.
I was very proud, but also felt a little panic...
Her brother Qiao Yu ran too fast, and she could no longer keep up.
Such an outstanding brother can't be beaten by those coquettish seniors at Yanbei University, right? !
So annoying!
……
Qiao Yu was actually a little troubled.
Many netizens on the Internet are worshiping him and are envious, jealous, and resentful that he can sit in the C position between the two big bosses, but only he knows how uncomfortable it is to sit in this position while eating.
No matter who you talk to on either side, you must be careful and go through it in your mind several times.
That’s all. What the hell are you piling all kinds of vegetables into his bowl?
Both bosses like to watch him eat?
Would it be good for him to do mukbang?
In short, this was the most exciting and troublesome meal Qiao Yu had since coming to the capital.
This is not the end.
During the dinner, Mr. Yuan also mentioned in front of Director Tian that he hoped Qiao Yu could join his students - Associate Professor Li Lixing of the Research Center and Professor Ronald of the University of California, Berkeley, as well as those of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology The research team of Professor Zhang Xinwen of Science and Technology.
The team’s current research topic is the two-dimensional generalization of Chevalet’s theorem for all reduced Lie algebras and reduced algebraic groups.
In Mr. Yuan’s words, it is not his opinion that Qiao Yu can join the team, but Professor Li has already mentioned this matter to two collaborators, and the other two collaborators agreed. .
In other words, this is the first research team to formally invite Qiao Yu.
Mr. Yuan also made it very clear why he invited Qiao Yu to join the research team.
The key to solving this problem lies in how to calculate the global function on the commutative heap. The team hopes to use Langlands duality to convert it into the calculation of the Whitaker layer in the cocenter of the affine Heckian category .
Langlands duality is a core concept in the geometric Langlands conjecture, and Qiao Yu happened to show a deep understanding of the geometric Langlands conjecture.
And Qiao Yu's thinking is very active, maybe he can bring some new ideas to their team.
It is said that they originally planned to invite Professor Pan to join. But Professor Pan obviously has no time, because in the coming time, it will take a lot of time and energy to make up for the loopholes raised by Qiao Yu.
Really, Qiao Yu was a little uncomfortable with Mr. Yuan poaching people so openly.
After all, he is from Yanbei, and he has never experienced the feeling of joining someone else's research group in Yanbei. Somewhat unkind.
Fortunately, Director Tian just said lightly: "Since Mr. Yuan has spoken, just agree. If you really achieve results and make a contribution, you can add your name when the paper is published. If If you can't make a contribution, just go to the research team for training."
The two bosses said this, so Qiao Yu could only agree.
So after dinner, on the way back to Yanbei University, Qiao Yu carried a bunch of manuscripts in her bag. Not only that, there is a lot of information on the Internet.
There is no other way. To join a research group that has been established for more than half a year, you must first understand the previous work of the collaborators.
But Qiao Yu is very familiar with this job.
It’s probably just a matter of going through it in your mind. It doesn’t even take much time. Anyway, the cycle of this kind of mathematical research project is calculated in years.
So Qiao Yu also decided that he would have to join a project team when he returned to Yanbei. Both sides were exposed to rain and dew, so he could not favor one over the other.
So he got off the car at the entrance of Yanbei University, and after saying goodbye to the other professors, Qiao Yu took the initiative to keep Director Tian behind.
"Director Tian, why don't you give me some more responsibilities? Anyway, I am idle every day. You can also introduce me to a research group. When I get tired from reading the information here, I will go do that as a rest. Brain.”
This As he said, Tian Yanzhen couldn't help but glare at this guy and asked: "Is idle still idle?"
Qiao Yu said plausibly: "Think about those serious high school students who spend five hours every morning. I have to get up at half past three, it’s late I can't go to bed until 11 o'clock, and I have to memorize vocabulary while eating. I'm already very free. What's the saying? By the way, you can only become a good person by enduring hardship. As long as you can't learn to die, just learn to death... Geniuses are not only smarter than ordinary people, but they also have to be more diligent than ordinary people! Otherwise, wouldn't it be very embarrassing if someone catches up?"
Tian Yan Zhen felt a little emotional. It was indeed better to be young and have endless energy.
But since this kid made a request, Tian Yanzhen decided to satisfy him.
"Okay, since you feel free... let's do this. I won't let you do theoretical research. Professor Zhang Zuolin from the School of Chemistry happened to find the research center. She encountered some trouble with a horizontal topic. I thought. Ask us for help. If you have time, go and help them."
Qiao Yu was stunned and asked suspiciously: "What do you mean by the horizontal subject of the School of Chemistry?"
Tian Yan Zhen shook his head and said: "Why are your concerns always so strange? Horizontal projects are generally research projects commissioned by or in cooperation with companies, and have many practical applications.
Vertical projects refer to Projects approved by higher-level units, such as the projects you will apply for from the Natural Science Foundation, are generally vertical projects in the School of Mathematics and the Research Center.
For example, the project Mr. Yuan invited you to join today is a project established by the China Natural Science Foundation. This is a vertical project. "
Qiao Yu thought for a while and said, "Isn't it possible to make money from horizontal projects? Just like the project they talked about today about Peter Schultz cooperating with Microsoft, it must be a lot, right? "
Tian Yanzhen glared at Qiao Yu again: "If companies cooperate with university laboratories, the funding problem will definitely be solved, but it will definitely not be as much as you think. And you are just here to do a favor, why do you care whether others make money or not? "
"Oh. "Qiao Yu nodded, but he felt that Director Tian's sudden anger must be because he asked about his knowledge blind spot...
But Qiao Yu continued to ask: "Then do you know what kind of project this is? Why should you seek help from our mathematics department? ”
Tian Yanzhen replied: "It is common for chemical laboratories to ask us for help with mathematical models. As for their project, it seems that a state-owned enterprise commissioned them to make a cobalt-based catalyst to improve the conversion efficiency of methanol. Specifically, I I don’t know yet. You’ll find out when you go there.
I’ll know it tomorrow. Send your WeChat account to Professor Zhang, and he will ask the doctor responsible for project promotion to contact you. Just follow their instructions and don't ask too much about things that are not your responsibility. Just treat it as your math practice course.”
Then he looked at Qiao Yu who was thoughtful and said. I gave him a reminder: "Professor Lu Huazhou from the research center is very good at this and has cooperated with the chemistry laboratory many times. I will also recommend his WeChat to you. If you encounter problems, you can always ask Professor Lu for advice. Be more modest." "
Qiao Yu nodded and said confidently: "Oh, good! Director Tian, don't worry, I promise to complete the task!"
Tian Yanzhen said: "Well, it's best if you can help. It doesn't matter if you can't help. Your exposure to these projects mainly allows you to understand the specific applications of mathematics in other subjects.
You will definitely do theoretical mathematics research in the future, but currently China is also short of applied mathematicians. The research center also needs to cultivate some applied mathematicians who can adapt to China's current development. So all I ask of you is to understand.
The main focus should be on Huaqing’s projects first. If you can really make achievements in Professor Li’s projects, it will be a great help to your future development. After all, this is a Natural Science Foundation project. ”
Qiao Yu probably understood.
As expected, Director Tian still felt sorry for him...
But it doesn’t matter. In fact, in Qiao Yu’s opinion, it is better to do more horizontal things. The project is also very good.
After all, companies must make more money.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yu couldn't help but ask again: "By the way, Director Tian, if the horizontal project achieves results, does the patent belong to the laboratory or the company?"
This time Tian Yanzhen didn’t answer at all. After glancing at Qiao Yu, he turned to look again. He looked at the light in the research center and said leisurely: "You will know this issue when you become the scientific research leader of a specific project. Okay, you go back to the center, I am going back too."
...
Qiao Yu returned to his room in low spirits.
Hey, Director Tian still deceived him as if he were a child, which was really a helpless thing.
Scientific Research Director——Isn’t that a matter of time? What does it matter if you talk to him in advance?
Putting the information randomly on the table, Qiao Yu sat at the large desk in his dormitory and began to review today's encounters.
Obviously, compared to Director Tian, Grandpa Shi is more urgent and radical in hoping to promote him as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be forced into the research team.
Although it sounds like the team needs him very much, Qiao Yu thinks that in reality it is most likely that Grandpa Shi made a strong recommendation.
Director Tian's recommendation for him to go was very perfunctory.
He is not required to produce results, but is asked to understand. This is obviously to pave the way for him in the future.
But it is understandable. After all, Director Tian is only in his sixties, while Mr. Yuan is already almost eighty. Therefore, it is understandable that Mr. Yuan has a more radical mentality.
After all, time is not forgiving...
But Qiao Yu felt that since he took over the matter, both parties must do well.
Not to mention that from the perspective of realizing life branch ideals, there is no doubt that application is definitely more profitable than theory. In short, every step must be taken steadily.
Making plans for the future in his mind, Qiao Yu took out his phone and took a look at it, and suddenly found that his phone was exploding...
Okay, using the word "explosion" here is too exaggerated. After all, he The safety of the domestic mobile phone used is still very guaranteed, but if it explodes, it should not be a big problem.
Because he was the guest speaker today, in order to ensure that he would not be interrupted during the explanation, Qiao Yu specially set his mobile phone to do not disturb mode.
After the lecture, he was dragged by a group of professors to chat and eat. On the way back, he was chatting with Director Tian again, so he never took out his phone to look at it. As a result, he now has seven missed calls and a bunch of messages @him on WeChat in the notification bar.
Really, just opening WeChat is stuck for a long time...
Qiao Yu subconsciously glanced out the window...
It's quite normal. It doesn't look like the end of the world, right? Are everyone on WeChat crazy? !
Thanks to the Chinese treasure, impeccable Ronaldo for the reward and encouragement!
Completed the 39th day of 10,000-word punch-in!
