Starting from a top student and marching towards the sea of ​​stars

Chapter 63 Teacher, Are You Really Real?

"If I hadn't been supplementing my knowledge of physics and chemistry recently, I probably wouldn't have even reached thirty points in material science experience."

Through his own observation of the system's subject-level interface, Ning Chen discovered some hidden information.

Some disciplines that are closely related will have a certain impact on each other.

For example, when Ning Chen was studying mathematics competitions, even if he did not study other subjects, his level of other science subjects would increase slightly.

Ning Chen decided to start learning the professional knowledge of material science after the final exam.

Anyway, Ning Chen was originally a student majoring in materials. Although this major is called one of the "Four Majors in Tiankeng", the significance of materials to human beings is self-evident.

It happened that there were no plans for the summer vacation, so using this time was enough for Ning Chen to learn a lot.

……

Time flies so fast, and before I know it, all the final exams for this semester are over.

Ning Chen didn't really care about the results of the final exams in each subject. With Ning Chen's confidence in his abilities, there was no problem in taking the first place in his major again.

After finishing the last exam, Ning Chen went to the instructor Zhang Kun to explain his thoughts.

"Director Zhang, I want to stay in school during the holidays and study professional courses in material science."

Zhang Kun was not surprised by Ning Chen's idea of ​​staying in school. After all, Ning Chen stayed at school most of the time during the last semester's winter vacation.

"No problem, I will handle the procedures for staying in school during the holidays for you. If you study professional courses, do you have any thoughts?"

Ning Chen thought for a while and said:

"Can you contact Mr. Xu Zhou for me? I want to ask him some questions about professional courses."

Zhang Kun was a little surprised that Ning Chen asked Xu Zhou by name. After all, Xu Zhou had only stayed at the school for two years and was among the youngest teachers in the School of Materials Science.

Ning Chen saw Zhang Kun's confusion, and continued:
"Although Mr. Xu Zhou is young, I heard that the senior students in the materials major spoke very well of him, and he was promoted to associate professor in just two years. I also prefer to communicate with young teachers, and I don't feel so much psychological pressure. Take it easy."

After listening to Ning Chen's explanation, Zhang Kun also felt that this was indeed the case.

"Yes, Teacher Xu Zhou is indeed young and promising, and his professional ability is also very strong. Then I will report it to Dean Liu and contact you when I have news."

"Okay, please excuse me, Director Zhang."

"You're welcome, it's all I should do."

The reasons Ning Chen told Zhang Kun were certainly true, but they were not all the reasons why Ning Chen chose Xu Zhou by name.

In her previous life, Ning Chen had taken Xu Zhou's class and had a very good impression of Xu Zhou.

Xu Zhou is not only very friendly, but also very humorous in teaching, which is quite popular with the students.

In terms of professional ability, Xu Zhou is even more excellent. Although he is young, he is not inferior to those old professors.

According to Ning Chen's classmates who stayed at the school, Xu Zhou published some good results almost every year, and was promoted to a professor of the School of Materials Science and Technology before he was 40 years old.

After Ning Chen left, Zhang Kun immediately contacted Liu Xu and relayed Ning Chen's thoughts.

Liu Xu also took this matter very seriously, which showed that Ning Chen really wanted to stay in the School of Materials.

It's just that Liu Xu was also a little surprised why Ning Chen called Xu Zhou by name, but since Ning Chen had this request, Liu Xu would definitely do his best to meet it.

Liu Xu found out Xu Zhou's phone number and called him directly.

"Teacher Xu, are you busy?"

"I'm not busy or not, please tell me, Dean Liu."

"Mr. Xu, there is a freshman in our college named Ning Chen. You must have heard of it, right?" Naturally, Xu Zhou was no stranger to the name "Ning Chen."

"It's the math genius, of course he knows."

"It's like this. He wants to start studying the professional course of material science in advance. If he has time, he will ask you some questions first."

Hearing Liu Xu's words, Xu Zhou was also full of doubts.

If Liu Xu didn't mention this matter, Xu Zhou would have thought that Ning Chen would transfer to the mathematics major next semester.

But after all, this was a task assigned to him by Dean Liu himself, so Xu Zhou naturally didn't dare to refuse.

In addition, Xu Zhou is also very interested in Ning Chen, and really hopes to get to know Ning Chen.

"Okay, I've been in the lab recently, and he can come over anytime."

"Okay, if there is nothing else, I will let him go to find you today."

……

Ning Chen thought that it would take two days for Zhang Kun to give him a message, but he didn't expect Zhang Kun to reply to him that day.

"Ning Chen, Dean Liu has helped you contact Mr. Xu Zhou. Whenever you have time, just go to his laboratory to find him."

"Okay, okay, please trouble Director Zhang and Dean Liu."

Ning Chen sighed in his heart at how fast they were doing things. Of course, Ning Chen also knew in his heart that whether the efficiency was fast or not depended on what the matter was.

After dinner in the evening, Ning Chen came to the laboratory where Xu Zhou was located.

After knocking on the door three times, after a while, the door was opened.

It was Xu Zhou who opened the door, but this was the first time Ning Chen saw Xu Zhou in this life, so he pretended not to recognize him.

"Hello, I'm Ning Chen, I'm here to see Teacher Xu Zhou."

"I am Xu Zhou, please come in."

Seeing Xu Zhou again after so many years, Ning Chen also felt a little excited, so he had to try his best to suppress this emotion.

"Ning Chen, I heard from Dean Liu that you want to learn materials science in advance?"

"Yes, we just finished the exam, so we have time to study professional courses."

Xu Zhou widened his eyes when he heard this, with a little doubt on his expression.

"Ning Chen, according to your ability, you can just transfer directly to the mathematics major. What materials do you need to learn? The materials major is very difficult, and the salary is not that good. Don't be so overwhelmed!"

As a teacher at the School of Materials, Xu Zhou directly advised Ning Chen not to learn materials, which made Ning Chen feel dumbfounded.

"Teacher Xu is indeed still so down-to-earth." Ning Chen said heartily.

Ning Chen remembered that Xu Zhou had such a very special personality in his last life, he was not as serious as other teachers, and he didn't like to make surprise quizzes.

In his spare time, Xu Zhou sometimes plays basketball with the students, completely without the airs of a teacher.

"Teacher Xu, I think materials science is still a very important subject. Materials science can be said to be the cornerstone of human civilization. From various daily necessities to aerospace, energy and electronics, everything is inseparable from the knowledge of materials science. . There will definitely be some hard work in the process of learning and research, but the results will definitely be happy."

Listening to Ning Chen's words, Xu Zhou couldn't help being moved by Ning Chen.

After all, these are what they usually say to fool the students to learn the materials. This is the first time I heard a student say these things to me.
