Chapter 175 Do you know what the academic popularity king is (33)
I have to say.
He Zhanying is indeed a social cow.
Not only did she bring Xu Qingshan to meet the team from Jiangdong University this time, but she also promised to bring everyone from Jiangdong University to Xu Qingshan's lecture hall to support him tomorrow afternoon.
After thanking He Zhanying, Xu Qingshan left the reluctant Senior Sister He.
I continued to wander among the guests attending this conference.
In fact, Xu Qingshan was a little surprised.
The proportion of female scholars present at ICML is higher than that of other traditional subject conferences. There are obviously more female scholars in the field of computer science than in the fields of pure mathematics and pure physics.
This somewhat goes against Xu Qingshan’s simple understanding.
But that's good news for him.
after all.
Who wouldn't like a little wolfdog genius who is tall, handsome, well-spoken, has a good figure, and is not greasy at all?
Not to mention female scholars, even middle-aged and elderly scholars will light up when they see Xu Qingshan, thinking that this is what they looked like as academics when they were young.
This is how it should be!
It all depends on the image of many peers.
Xu Qingshan felt that he would be more eye-catching here tonight than the crystal chandelier on the ceiling.
Who would have thought.
Why would I rely on my appearance to eat at an academic dinner?
After dealing with enthusiastic scholars one after another, Xu Qingshan felt that his special report tomorrow would definitely not miss the audience.
I don't know if the small lecture hall can fit in it.
With this project, Xu Qingshan, with the help of a new female professor he met, found the professor in charge of scheduling academic lecture halls at the University of Montreal, the organizer of ICML. This was a Latin American who looked a bit old-fashioned. scholar.
"Xu, I think you may need a larger lecture hall. The original small hall may not be able to accommodate your audience."
The female professor who brought Xu Qingshan here spoke to Xu Qingshan eagerly.
"That's what I thought, thank you, Mrs. Triance."
Xu Qingshan gently hugged the charming female professor.
"I'm glad I could help you."
The Latin American scholar stood silently, as if he hadn't seen anything.
"Hello, I would like to apply to change the academic lecture hall in the afternoon."
Xu Qingshan said politely and sincerely.
"Sorry, sir, the schedule has been set and there is no way to change it."
The Latino scholar shook his head.
"I read that the small lecture hall we use can only seat a dozen people. I think there will be dozens of people coming to see me give a report. I don't want to let everyone down."
After being rejected, Xu Qingshan was not discouraged and continued to speak sincerely.
"I'm sorry, sir."
The Latino scholar had an expressionless face, wore glasses, raised his eyes slightly, and simply rejected Xu Qingshan without giving a reason.
"I can change it to a worse time, such as when it is just about to start in the afternoon, or when it is about to end. I think Hall 3 should have a more generous schedule in the afternoon, so I can speak more concisely."
Xu Qingshan originally thought that this simple request could be easily solved.
After all, this was a suggestion given to him by a big-name scholar tonight. Professor James Allen, the ICML best paper winner the year before last, said that this was a problem that could be easily solved.
But obviously.
This can only be easily solved by successful people, but for a fledgling rookie like Xu Qingshan, no one will open a channel for him.
"I'm sorry, sir."
There was slight contempt in the Latin scholar's eyes.
He despises people who have no real material and rely solely on their faces and sweet words to get through the academic circle.
He had just observed Xu Qingshan for a long time and heard about what happened in the afternoon.
He has already defined Xu Qingshan in his mind.
A young scholar who has gone down a deviant path and is just a facade.
It is obviously just a normal collection, but it is a temporary collection of low-quality articles that were supplemented after problems occurred with the previously included articles.
But when I came to this kind of occasion, instead of being absorbed in academics and studying hard with the big guys I met, I just looked for people to talk to and exchanged business cards and contact information everywhere. I didn't have any serious attitude towards learning at all.
Want to get attention by doing this?
It’s ridiculous.
"Well, if something unexpected happens tomorrow afternoon, I can only apologize to you first."
Seeing that the other party's attitude was clear, Xu Qingshan didn't bother much, just shook his head and left here.
The Latin American scholar looked at Xu Qingshan's figure who left to chat with others, sneered, and continued to do his own thing.
Accident?
What surprise could there be?
Just a young boy.
The dinner was held very smoothly, and many people found good collaborators at the dinner.
This is a good boost for the development of the field of machine learning.
But who gained the most tonight, probably no one can compare with Xu Qingshan.
Although those big names are more interested in recruiting Xu Qingshan under their command, there are also many young scholars participating in the ICML conference this time. These young scholars who came with their mentors are the new force in the future machine learning academic circle.
They were the ones more willing to discuss academic issues with Xu Qingshan than the big bosses who wanted to recruit people.
Xu Qingshan received at least 6 cooperation intentions today.
Don't think that 6 is a small number. These 6 have been screened and are all high-quality projects, and basically all of them will have visible results.
Xu Qingshan's work on the collaborative project does not need to be as hard as writing on his own.
The other party has a research team, and some simple and repetitive work can be handed over to one or two migrant research workers. Then Xu Qingshan and the project leader only need to do the core algorithm part and the correct research direction and research ideas.
What this requires is not time, but height.
If your academic level is high enough, those problems can be solved quickly.
Xu Qingshan, who returned home with a full load, did not find Olivia at the dinner, not even her mentor, Professor Jessica Davis.
After all, there were still too many people at the dinner, which was normal.
Back at the hotel, Xu Qingshan took a bath and felt even more sleepy.
After all, he drank a lot, and for him who had never drank much until now, the physical reaction was still quite big.
It's not uncomfortable, but I just want to sleep.
It's good to be young, just fall asleep.
When I got up and packed up the next day and went to the venue, there were not many empty seats in the venue.
Xu Qingshan walked to his seat naturally and generously, and many people took the initiative to greet him along the way.
He didn't look like he was here for an academic conference, he looked like he was here for a fan meeting, and he was the star.
The morning speech and special report were actually a bit boring.
But some people still support it.
The important highlights of this meeting are the free exchanges among the elites, and the final future industry outlook, consensus and special reports.
Buffet at the banquet hall at noon.
Xu Qingshan found some food that he liked. As soon as he sat down, a group of female scholars were surrounding him, ranging from young people in their early twenties to older people in their forties and fifties.
Xu Qingshan is not picky and can chat with anyone.
They are also restaurants.
The tables at other people's tables are all filled with bad old men, greasy middle-aged people, and stupid young people. Only Xu Qingshan's side was full of laughter and cheers.
Xu Qingshan sighed secretly in his heart.
Is this considered an academic Pan An?
Thinking of this, he lowered his head and thought for a moment. He should not be counted as the academic Pan Donkey Deng Xiaoxian.
Some men may feel that having many women is their wings.
But Xu Qingshan is different.
He felt that these men's ideas were too narrow-minded.
If she’s not my woman, can’t she be my wings?
If it’s not a woman, can’t it be wings?
As long as it is a human being, or not even a human being, as long as it allows me to fly, then it is all my wings!
Even if she is someone else's wife, she can still be my wings!
After drinking and drinking.
By the afternoon.
It's Xu Qingshan's performance time.
Unlike other speakers who were a little nervous and anxious, Xu Qingshan was very calm.
It's just that he is not relaxed, because before his speech begins, he still needs to run around several halls, make eye contact with the people on the stage, and say hello to the new friends in the audience.
A real show-stopper.
But such behavior also proves part of Xu Qingshan's popularity.
Wherever he went, there was an obvious voice to welcome him.
Until about four o'clock in the afternoon.
It was finally time for Xu Qingshan to take the stage to give a report in his small hall.
At this time, in Hall 1, the academic hall, there was also a scholar preparing to give a report.
He is also from the host University of Montreal, but the content of his subject is actually a little out of date, but this kind of research is relatively mature and will not make mistakes.
And as the host scholar, he had a little preferential treatment.
He was prepared that there wouldn't be too many people in the academic hall.
But when he actually took the stage, he almost fell off the stage.
Less than a third of the seats are occupied.
You know, for a report in an academic hall that is normally not very popular, at least half of the people sitting there will be listening.
Because the quality and level of the thesis topic are there.
But the scene before him gave him a heavy blow.
The scholar looked at the tutor beside him with a dull expression, it was the Latin American scholar from the University of Montreal.
He was frowning and nodded towards the eldest disciple who had already left the sect, signaling him to continue making the report.
I left Hall 1 to see where everyone had gone.
But as soon as he left the hall and entered the corridor in the small hall area, he was shocked.
I saw a group of scholars crowded in the corridor of the small hall. The scholar at the front found something to cushion and sit on the ground. The scholars in the middle were either squatting or sitting. The scholars at the back were standing, and there were still people standing farther away. On the stool.
He could only see the figure at the end of the corridor from a distance.
That Chinese guy who has nothing but appearances.
At this time, he was standing in front of several pushed-out blackboards, holding his own academic report in his hand, speaking passionately.
The young man's arms were waving, as if slapping his old face hard.
Across the crowd.
Xu Qingshan, who had just been escorted out to give a group report, also saw the familiar bad old man and secretly laughed in his heart.
I have informed you in advance.
Do you know what the academic popularity king is?
Ignore that Lao Deng.
Xu Qingshan continues to enjoy his own stage.
Xu Qingshan actually just introduced himself briefly in the small hall and wanted to start giving an academic report.
But before he finished introducing himself.
A crowd of people poured into the small hall, which originally had only fifteen seats.
Xu Qingshan also greeted them one by one.
The scholar who was not very familiar with Xu Qingshan in the hall, but was quite interested in Xu Qingshan's subject, looked like he had seen a ghost.
When did a relatively basic statistical relationship learning attract so many scholars?
And, why are there so many big names?
The ICML best paper winner the year before last, the AIII best paper winner last year, as well as Professor Jessica Davis, and a bunch of big names who are well-known in the international computer industry.
This is not reasonable at all!
There were so many people squeezed in at one time, maybe twenty or thirty people.
The scholars who were originally sitting were too embarrassed to sit down, so they all stood up, and there was more space for them to stand up.
But with a total of thirty or forty people standing in this small hall, it seemed a bit crowded.
"Hey, sir, can you let me in? I'm here to see my little brother Xu's special report."
"Oh? Are you here to see my brother's report too? Me too, but I can't squeeze in."
"My dear, are you all good friends of our family?"
"Your family? Mine, I like him."
"I like him too, you are really discerning."
The entrance to the small hall was a bit crowded, so there was no choice but to have someone open the door to the small hall completely.
But this is far from enough to accommodate the arrival of Xu Qingshan's brothers, relatives and friends.
In the end, it was Bunch's idea.
This guy is really a fan of Xu Qingshan and has been waiting here for a long time.
"Xu, I think we can go to the corridor and talk, we push the blackboard out, and we use those boxes and tables to put together for you to stand on, so everyone can see it!"
Bald Man Bunch's proposal was recognized by many people.
Among them, the older girl He Zhanying was the most excited.
Olivia was also in the crowd. The little girl was dressed very nicely, but there were so many people that she couldn't be seen at all.
In fact, many scholars still have the mentality of children and mainly love to play.
This can be seen from the small projects of some famous scholars, and they play better than ordinary people.
With the efforts of many friends, Xu Qingshan’s lecture stage was moved from the small hall to the corridor at the entrance of the hall.
Everyone was taking their seats to be quiet, like they were doing club activities in college or celebrating Halloween.
Simple, happy and full of passion.
They are not attending Xu Qingshan's academic seminar, they are participating in their own youth.
Xu Qingshan looked at the self-doubting and sadly leaving figure outside the corridor and didn't care.
He decided not to waste today's stage.
And to be honest, today's scene is really touching.
He felt that his inspiration was about to burst out on the spot! ! !
10,000 words were delivered today, and should be updated with more chapters at early twelve o'clock. If you are sleepy, you can get up and read it tomorrow!
