From small town academic to chief scientist

Zhou Yi's recruitment of students online has aroused great heated discussion.

Zhou Yi had just gotten off the plane and not long after he turned on his phone, he found that the background was exploding and there were many more private messages than usual.

Since Zhou Yi was wearing the headphones provided by the system, Mudan explained to Zhou Yi everything about the online situation.

"Master, you didn't make your graduation requirements clear. Many people are asking and hesitating."

Peony said on the headset.

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

“Originally I didn’t plan to announce it, but after thinking about it, if I didn’t announce it, many people might come to sign up. At that time, there would be too many people and it would be difficult to operate. It would be enough to announce it so that some people who want to get a diploma will quit.

I don't accept bastards here. "

If too many gangsters come, Zhou Yi will feel uncomfortable. Then he will not be able to graduate and meet his own requirements, and his reputation will be ruined.

Zhou Shen treats students harshly, Zhou Shen does not let students graduate, various topics will definitely come up one after another,

It would be difficult to recruit students at that time.

Three people become tigers.

Even the students who are recommended by Shuimu University every year will not choose Zhou Yi if his reputation becomes bad.

No one dares to entrust their future to a disreputable mentor.

"Then what do you want, Master?"

Mudan asked in a lolita tone.

Mudan definitely didn’t know the system’s requirements, so Zhou Yi had to explain to Mudan:

"The minimum is 2 SCI papers in Zone 3 or above for master's degree, and the minimum is 2 SCI papers in Zone 1 for PhD. Help me publish them on various platforms, and also publish them on foreign social platforms."

"Roger that, Master."

Peony said in a sweet voice.

Zhou Yi felt that he wanted to spare no effort to expand his influence. In addition to being able to crush the world at his own level, his disciples and officials at home and abroad must also be spread all over the world.

What is the use of a person waving flags and shouting? Among ordinary undergraduate mathematics students, very few people know about Pope Grothendieck.

A series of talents trained by a certain university have this flavor.

The whole country is my people, what weight does your words have?

Zhou Yi said in a very small voice as he walked.

At this moment, a burst of warm cheers echoed through the airport. They were all screams from girls. The craziness of it made Zhou Yi stunned. Could it be that they were welcoming me?

Am I that famous?

They are all young and beautiful young ladies. How embarrassing.

When Zhou Yi saw the sign, it turned out to be a welcome to a certain young master star.

Zhou Yi sighed, Mader, it turned out to be an illusion.

When will I get this kind of treatment?

Envy, envy.

However, among these people, Zhou Yi found a few very familiar people. Aren't these his classmates Zhao Lili and the others?

Zhou Yi secretly cursed bad luck, this can happen, seeing dirty things is really disappointing.

Zhao Lili looked at a familiar figure and secretly cursed her bad luck. No matter how strong she is with Zhou Yi, it's none of my business and everyone will ignore it.

Zhou Yi walked very fast. As he walked, he was thinking about the endorsement fee of a traffic star for an advertisement, which was probably tens of millions. Even Zhou Yi now dare not imagine this sky-high price.

Zhou Yi's annual salary at Shuimu University was only 3 million, and he specifically asked Zhou Yi when he signed the contract,

The sky-high annual salary of 3 million is only due to the fact that I have won several international awards and published many articles in the four major journals.

Some ordinary full professors with no other income earn only more than 10,000 yuan per month.

For associate professors or lecturers, there may not be that many.

As for the money spent on projects, every amount of money will be verified and corruption will be discovered.

Those who have not been found out are not not reported, but the time has not come yet. Zhou Yi believes this very much.

As long as you are reported, you will be cool.

Especially in this era when the Internet is so developed, we don't dare to mess around, at least Zhou Yi doesn't dare to mess around.

It's like an academician from a certain polytechnic university was kissed crazily by a female doctor during a live class and was immediately cooled down.

Zhou Yi looked at the huge crowd and silently took a taxi. If he hadn't been concerned about his influence as a scientific researcher, Zhou Yi would have wanted to take the internet celebrity route.

With the number of fans he has on the four major platforms and Twitter, his annual advertising fees are at least much more than his annual salary.

Zhou Yi lamented, no wonder everyone wants to become an Internet celebrity. The benefits behind this are simply astonishing.

The speed of Yuzhou taxi drivers is still trustworthy.

Not long after, Zhou Yi quickly returned to Chongqing University and secretly came to his old place in the library where he often went.

As expected, Xia Xue, wrapped tightly in winter clothes, was reading a book and kept writing with the pen in her hand.

Zhou Yi walked over lightly, gently put down the laptop in his hand, and then looked at Xia Xue who was attentive.

A pair of bright eyes, bright and clear, as bright as stars, but the circles under the eyes are obviously much darker than before.

And he looked much more haggard than before.

Very similar to Xiao Wanyi at Shuimu University.

At this time, Xia Xue seemed to have noticed something, and thought it was another suitor.

After all, just think about how popular a gorgeous beauty is in a science and engineering university.

Xia Xue frowned and was about to give some words of persuasion when she suddenly looked up and realized it was Zhou Yi.

Those beautiful star-like eyes couldn't stop being surprised and smiling, and there was tenderness and love between her brows.

"Senior!"

Zhou Yi hugged Xia Xue and said softly:

"Miss me?"

Xia Xue nodded, her face that was originally pale from the cold turned slightly red, and said:

"Um."

When everyone in the library saw this scene, their blood pressure went up to the sky. It's already the end of the semester, why are you showing off your affection in the library?

Where did these dog men and women come from!

I want to expose you!

Oh no, why does that boy look so familiar?

whatfuck?

Zhou Shen! ?

Why is he at Yu University? Shouldn't he be at Shuimu University? Moreover, he is cuddling with a girl. This is big news.

After a while, some people took out their mobile phones and started taking pictures.

"I have a story. Last time I went to Beijing Institute of Technology, I didn't eat enough melons from a certain academician of the Beijing Institute of Technology. I didn't expect to eat Zhou Shen's melons myself."

Some classmates started whispering.

"Forget it, let's not take the picture. That's Zhou Shen, the pride of our Chongqing University. And I've heard about that girl. She and Zhou Shen were childhood sweethearts. When Zhou Shen didn't have money to participate in the national competition, it was that girl who begged for a scholarship from the School of Liberal Arts. The dean went to plead for mercy, and that’s why the old man Tang Ping was allowed to pass their group.”

A junior insider said.

"Hey, there's this thing. Was Zhou Shen so poor that he couldn't even pay the registration fee?"

"Well, I was almost forced to drop out of school by their counselor."

"Hiss, this matter didn't come out, it's incredible."

"It should have been suppressed."

"Not only is it unbelievable, Zhou Shen managed to win the Higher Education Society Cup with two soy sauces when no one else was optimistic about it. It's unbelievable."

"I have the Higher Education Society Cup to directly guarantee my postgraduate study. Alas, I can also do it in the first year of National Science and Technology."

"Let's study, it's the end of the semester. I think Zhou Shen must have noticed us."

At this time, the melon-eaters dispersed one after another.

Zhou Yi blushed a little when he realized that this was the library.

Zhou Yi took Xia Xue's cold little hand and said very gently:

"Shall we go for a walk?"

Xia Xue nodded and said:

"Um."

Not long after, Zhou Yi took Xia Xue and walked outside and said:

"I plan to stay at Shuimu University for 2-3 years before returning to Yuzhou."

Xia Xue didn't speak, just listened to Zhou Yi's words.

"When I come back this time, I am planning to join forces with Academician Yang and Dean Miao to ask the senior management of Yuzhou for instructions to see if a research institute for advanced studies can be established in Yuzhou in the future. If so, we will settle here in the future, right?"

Zhou Yi said his plan calmly.

Xia Xue nodded and said with utmost gentleness:

"Um."

“But the Institute for Advanced Study needs a lot of talents, and I feel like it’s not easy for me to recruit talents. Let’s see if Shuimu University can recruit some talents in the past few years. When the talents are available, it will be much easier.

Shan Peng from Shuimu, Ding Jian from Shangjing University, and Liu Gang from Huadong Normal University, I all want to recruit them. "

Zhou Yi covered Xia Xue's little hand and said softly.

Although I often make video calls in Chou Country, the videos are not as warm as real people.

Zhou Yi recalled all the past events, and the love in his heart overflowed into his chest.

"Come on, senior!"

Xia Xue's eyes were shining and she said very gently.

"What about you? The video shows you hesitating and hesitating on some words."

Zhou Yi asked with concern.

Xia Xue said:

"I am a sophomore this year, and I am expected to go to Shuimu University for graduate school next year."

Zhouyi:! ?

Can you be so fierce?

It seems that Xia Xue was able to go to Beijing University in the college entrance examination, and she also had the support of the entire college. Thinking of this, Zhou Yi felt that it was reasonable.

"And I am also the person in charge of a section of the 100-school alliance project, and I have a paper in hand."

Zhou Yi nodded. A top student is a top student no matter where he is.

Some of them have been admitted to the ETH Zurich and some to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. With the help of the academy, it is not surprising that a proud girl like Xia Xue has such achievements.

Zhou Yi held Xia Xue's hand tightly and said:

"That's good."

Xia Xue raised her head, looked at Zhou Yi, who was half a head taller than herself, and said:

"I have also become the vice chairman of the Yuzhou Writers Association, and I am planning to apply to join the Summer Writers Association next year."

Zhouyi:...

"Aren't you afraid of affecting your reputation? Yousan and Qianqian are both there. There is a mixed bag of good and bad people there, especially that San. I used to be in dormitory 404, and I had to listen to Yang Shuai scolding him for half an hour every week."

Zhou Yi said with some worry.

Xia Xue said with a hint of mischief in her eyes:

"It's not like there's a mixed bag of good and bad. Just keep true to yourself, unless the senior kisses me and strictly stops me from joining the Xia Writers Association."

Zhou Yi rubbed Xia Xue's head and said:

"Stop being naughty, I won't stop you, come on, let's go to a better future together."

Then Zhou Yi boldly kissed Xia Xue's flawless forehead with an uneasy heart.

Xia Xue's cheeks were flushed and her heartbeat was racing. This was the first time Zhou Yi kissed her. Her voice was like a mosquito at the moment, and she said:

"Um."

Just when Zhou Yi and Xia Xue were talking to each other, a phone call came, which gave Zhou Yi a headache.

It’s not even possible to fall in love, right?

Zhou Yi looked at Xia Xue's clear eyes and said:

"Dean Miao's phone call must be because he has something to do with me."

"Hurry up, senior, don't delay."

Xia Xue urged.

"Hello, Dean? I'm Zhou Yi."

"Haha, Zhou Yi, are you planning to make big news when you just come back? If my graduate students hadn't seen it in the library, we wouldn't have known you were back."

Miu Lai's voice was still so cheerful.

Zhou Yi said with some embarrassment:

"Please also ask the dean for help. I don't want this kind of thing to be a hot topic. I'm afraid that Internet trolls will not only troll me, but also Xia Xue."

"Well, we said hello to those students. It shouldn't happen. Besides, it's just a couple cuddling. It's not a big deal. It's two different things than a academician from a certain Polytechnic University."

Miu Lai said with a hint of uncertainty,

"Bring that sister-in-law Liang to my office for a chat?"

Zhouyi said:

"Um."

Not long after, Zhou Yi brought Xia Xue to the familiar office.

"Hello, Dean."

Zhou Yi greeted him very politely.

Xia Xue also said very politely:

"Hello, Dean Miao."

Miao Yuan's face was very happy, he kept laughing and said:

"I didn't miss it at the beginning. I didn't expect that in just half a year, you would have achieved such great achievements, including the ICCM Gold Medal, the Veblen Geometry Prize, and the Ramanu Gold Medal, especially the latter two. As long as you have it, you are destined to be a great success in the future. Academician of the Academy of Sciences.”

It’s not that the gold content of the ICCM Gold Award is low, the main reason is that it is organized by Qiu Chengtong. Unless the winner is from Beijing University, otherwise the academician who evaluates the award may be a little short of something and did not directly apply for it. Maybe he left a trace of affection.

Zhou Yi said very modestly:

"Just good luck."

"I am also planning to invite you to return to Chongqing University to teach. Now it seems that it may be better to stay at Shuimu University for development."

Miu Lai sighed and said.

Yuda really couldn't offer anything to retain Zhou Yi. If Zhou Yi didn't go abroad directly and never come back, he would be worthy of the country.

Zhou Yigang wanted to say this, but when he saw what Miao Lai said, he immediately said:

“I plan to establish a Yuzhou Institute of Advanced Studies in Yuzhou in three years’ time, covering all branches of mathematics, including basic mathematics, applied mathematics, computational mathematics, operations research, probability theory and mathematical statistics.

The future will even involve physical chemistry, artificial intelligence and other aspects. "

When Miao Lai heard this, his eyes lit up. Isn't this similar to IAS, but it only involves applications.

"Okay, as long as you are willing to come back, I will take Yang Min with me to explain the situation to the superiors, and I will provide strong support in terms of funding and everything else.

The upper management of Yuzhou attaches great importance to the opinions of high-level talents and hopes to attract a large number of talents. However, due to the geographical location of Yuzhou, in the southwest mountainous area, talents are rare.

Coupled with the fierce competition from Shudu University, Yuzhou's attraction to top talents is not as great as imagined. "

Zhou Yi agreed with the dean's words. In recent years, the financial resources of Chongqing University have obviously been tilted towards Chongqing University. However, Chongqing University has not produced any results in recent years. Results cannot be produced in just a few years. They must be accumulated over time. The results form a unique heritage.

Zhouyi said:

"Okay, let's trouble the dean. By then, the professors in the institute will definitely be part-time professors at Chongqing University. Under the same conditions, students from Chongqing University can even be given priority to be admitted as master's and doctoral students, as well as doctoral students. Come and do a postdoc.”

A doctorate is the highest degree, and a postdoc can be said to be the first job after graduation, not the highest academic qualification.

Speaking of postdocs, Zhou Yi is also considering whether to recruit a few postdocs to follow him in artificial intelligence.

It seems pretty good. After two years of self-cultivation, it may be no worse than those from some universities.

It doesn't matter whether you can become a mathematician or not; being able to become a senior engineer is enough.

PS: I have seen 4 people leaving messages so far, is there no one left?

There are about 5 places, and there is a group building--, plus the author himself, there are only 4 people. It's embarrassing. I knew I wouldn't join.
