From university academician to chief academician

Chapter 108 The fine tradition of Zhonghu University—Poaching people

Today is the first day of university. Before Ye Fei entered the office, he heard Tan Lingling's chirping voice in the distance.

This woman's vitality is really strong. She seems to have endless energy every day, and her mouth never stops.

"Let me tell you, Ye Fei stole the show at this International Conference of Young Mathematicians."

Tan Lingling stood at the door of the office talking to several teachers.

“He and Amata, and Balazs, delivered academic reports on the same topics.”

"At first, others thought it was Amata competing with Balazs, but they didn't expect Ye Fei to be the next one."

"Defeat both of them."

"You may not know Amata, but you know James Maynard, the 2022 Fields Medal winner."

"Amata is the son of James, and Amata is also a mathematical genius..."

Tan Lingling's mouth was like a machine gun, she muttered a lot of words without even taking a breath.

Ye Fei sometimes laments in his heart that Tan Lingling has chosen the wrong career direction. She should not be a teacher, but a salesperson.

She has no academic ability as a teacher, but she is a born genius as a salesperson.

A dead person with a mouth can be said to be alive, and a living person can be said to be dead.

Ye Fei walked up with a smile and said, "Good morning, everyone!"

Several teachers surrounding Tan Lingling turned to look at him when they heard Ye Fei's voice.

Tan Lingling grabbed Ye Fei, pushed him closer to her, and said excitedly: "Hey... the real master is here. I told you guys that Ye Fei will definitely be a top international mathematician in the future. It's best for you at this time." Please flatter me, otherwise you will regret it later."

A passerby asked in confusion: "Ye Fei is a top mathematician in the world, why are you trying to curry favor with you?"

Tan Lingling said without blushing, "Because I am Ye Fei's sister, why don't you flatter me?"

"Tch..." Everyone looked at her with contempt.

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Okay, everyone should leave, otherwise the director will be called in soon."

After saying that, Ye Fei walked into the office, picked up the water glass on the table, went to the water dispenser to get a cup of hot water, and sat down in his seat.

The water cup was uncovered and white smoke was curling up!

After a while, he picked up the water glass, took a sip, and then put it down.

Tan Lingling walked in from the outside and said with a smile: "Ye Fei, how does it feel to defeat the son and student of a Fields Medal winner?"

"I think it's quite boring." Ye Fei smiled.

"Just Versailles!" Tan Lingling rolled her eyes and sat down in her seat.

"What's the Versailles thing about this?" Ye Fei said: "Rather than defeating them, I want to lure them to Zhonghu University."

Tan Lingling said funnyly: "Ye Fei, do you think it's possible?"

"I think there is great hope." Ye Feidao.

Tan Lingling shook her head and said: "Ye Fei, are you too carried away by the victory? You don't even look at the universities where they are. One of them is a professor at Princeton and the other is a professor at Cambridge University."

"Our Zhonghu University is inferior to these two universities in all aspects, whether it is teachers, students, research laboratories, policies and resources."

"Why do you think they come to our Zhonghu University?"

"Why come to our Zhonghu University if you don't wait for a better environment?"

"Come to experience life?"

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Actually, our Zhonghu University is not as bad as you said, maybe there is a place to attract them!"

"Where can I attract them?" Tan Lingling laughed and said, "I can't think of where I can attract them."

Ye Feidao: "Okay, I won't tell you this anymore. I'm going to find the principal and dean."

Immediately, Ye Fei got up and went to the principal's office.

"Ye Fei?" The principal looked at Ye Fei who knocked on the door and came in, and said in surprise: "Why are you here?"

Ye Fei never took the initiative to come to his office.

Moreover, there was no business relationship between them, so he didn't know what Ye Fei was doing in his office.

Ye Feidao: "Principal, I have something good to discuss with you."

"What good thing?" the principal asked doubtfully.

Ye Feidao: "This is a great good thing and will be of great benefit to our school. We have to call the dean of our college to come over for this matter. This matter also concerns the School of Mathematics."

The principal looked at Ye Fei in confusion and said, "Tell me something good first."

Ye Feidao: "Call the dean here first. I'll tell you when he arrives."

"I promise, it must be a good thing, don't worry!"

The principal said: "Okay, then I will call Xiao Guoqing."

After saying that, he called Dean Xiao and called him to the office.

Dean Xiao was very confused. On the first day of school, what did the principal ask me to do?

Without thinking too much, he walked towards the principal's office.

When he entered the principal's office, he was surprised to see Ye Fei and the principal sitting on the sofa drinking tea and chatting. What was Ye Fei doing here?

The dean said: "Principal!"

"Come, sit down!" the principal beckoned.

After the dean sat down, the principal looked at Ye Fei and said, "Ye Fei, you can speak now!"

Ye Feidao: "I will tell you a good thing now. This benefit is of greatest benefit to our School of Mathematics."

"Didn't I go to the International Conference of Young Mathematicians some time ago..."

The principal urged: "Tell me the key points."

Ye Feidao: "Principal, don't worry, listen to me slowly. I met two people at the conference, namely Amata Maynard and Balazs Hawkins."

"Amata is the son of Fields Medal winner James Maynard. He is eighteen years old..."

Ye Fei briefly explained the information about these two people.

The two principals were full of confusion, not knowing what Ye Fei wanted to do with this long speech.

They didn't get any benefit from this tirade.

The principal asked: "What are you talking about?"

Ye Feidao: "Both of them studied Gaussian conjecture like me, but my research is deeper than them."

"Originally, these two people wanted to recruit me to Princeton to conduct research with them."

"But I poached him and came to our Zhonghu University."

After Ye Fei finished speaking, seeing the calm faces of the two of them, he asked cautiously: "Aren't you going to give me some reaction?"

"What's the reaction?" the principal asked confused.

"They were hired by me to come to Zhonghu University."

"Yes, you recruited me to Zhonghu University." said the principal.

Then he exclaimed: "What? You recruited me to Zhonghu University. Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true." Ye Fei said, "It's not fun if I lie to you."

"But if they don't wait for the world's top universities, why would they come to our Zhonghu University?" the dean asked doubtfully.

"Yes!" said the principal, "Why do they come to our Zhonghu University?"

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Of course it is my ability that attracts them. I promise to take them to do Gaussian number conjectures in the virtual quadratic field."

"This is research on Gaussian conjecture. For an aspiring mathematician, difficult research has a fatal attraction."

"So, here they come."

After hearing Ye Fei's explanation, they understood in their hearts.

The dean said excitedly: "Haha... Ye Fei, you are really adhering to the fine traditions of our school, and that's how you should do it, to recruit more talents to Zhonghu University."

"When will they arrive?"

"They can arrive within a week." Ye Feidao: "But Dean, I promise to give them the title of associate professor, no problem!"

"Of course, no problem." The dean said with a smile: "They were associate professors when they were at Princeton and Cambridge. According to the regulations, they should also be associate professors when they come to our Xia University."

The dean looked at the principal and asked: "Principal, is it okay?"

"Hey..." the principal sighed helplessly: "You are really causing trouble for me!"

There is a limit to how many professors each university can have.

If the Faculty of Mathematics has more professors, then the remaining faculties will have fewer professors.

Suddenly there are two more associate professors in the School of Mathematics, so there will be two fewer people from other colleges who want to be promoted to associate professors this semester.

Naturally, other colleges will not agree and will make trouble with the principal.

However, Amata and Balaz are both very strong in terms of ability and background.

The principal didn't expect that these two people had to be left behind.

Therefore, we can only reduce the number of people promoted to associate professors from other colleges by two.

The dean said with a smile: "Principal, I will treat you to dinner tonight and go to Jiyueju."

Jiyueju is a high-end restaurant in Sand Dunes, with an average consumption of about 3,000 per person.

No one from a well-to-do family would dare to go there, only people from a moderately wealthy family would go there.

"Okay!" the principal gritted his teeth and said, "You have already taken advantage of me, so what if I give you a meal?"

"You can't ask the school to reimburse you for this meal!"

The dean's heart bleeds after hearing this. The average consumption per person is 3,000, and the minimum consumption for two people is 6,000, which is his weekly salary.

The principal looked at Ye Fei and said, "Ye Fei, come with me!"

Ye Fei glanced at the smiling dean beside him, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I won't go."

Ji Yueju also knew that Tan Lingling once invited him to Ji Yueju for dinner.

It was the most expensive food he had ever eaten in his life.

With such expensive food, Dean probably wouldn't want to go there by himself.

"Come on!" The principal didn't want to let the dean go, so he pulled Ye Fei up and said, "Anyway, someone is treating us."

He looked at the dean with a smile and asked, "Dean Xiao, do you think so?"

"Yes!" Dean Xiao said with a smile: "Ye Fei, you can come too!"

Three people, spending 9,000.

If it's a little more luxurious, it's ten thousand.

Ten thousand yuan is equivalent to half of his monthly salary.

The principal smiled and said: "Look, the people who are inviting you to the dinner have said that you are invited to come, so just come!"

The principal didn't want Dean Xiao to bleed.

If it is a major bleeding, it will be more than 10,000 yuan.

For someone of Dean Xiao's level, ten thousand yuan is nothing.

The appearance fee for any of his lectures starts at 50,000 yuan.

Ten thousand yuan is only equivalent to one-fifth of his appearance fee.

"Okay!" Ye Feidao.

That night, the three of them went to Ji Yueju to have a meal.

The news about Zhonghu University is never airtight.

The news that Amata and his wife were coming to Zhonghu University to teach was made known to everyone in the school the day after Ye Fei announced it.

Amata may not be famous, but when it comes to Amata's father and Balaz's mentor.

They are both Fields Medal winners and very famous.

As a result, Amata and the two became famous.

But confusingly, as far as they knew, Amata was a professor at Cambridge University and Balazs was a professor at Princeton.

What is the charm of Zhonghu University that makes them give up a good environment and come to Zhonghu University?

Ye Fei's office!

Tan Lingling said: "Ye Fei, why did Amata come to Zhonghu University?"

In the entire Zhonghu University, the only person Amata knew was Ye Fei, so asking Ye Fei might get the answer.

Ye Feidao: "I poached them with my talent."

"Just brag!" Tan Lingling naturally didn't believe it. Is Ye Fei's ability better than the professors at Princeton and Cambridge University?

It would be impossible for Amata and the two of them to come to Zhonghu University because of Ye Fei's ability.

Ye Fei shook his head and said, "No one believes the truth."

At this time, Ye Fei's cell phone rang. He picked it up and took a look before answering the call.

"Hello!"

"Ye Fei, we have arrived at Zhonghu University."

The call was from Amata.

"So fast?" Ye Fei was surprised: "Just wait for me for a while, and I will pick you up."

After saying that, Ye Fei walked outside.

After a while, he picked up Amata and the two of them and took them to the office.

"Ye Fei, who are they?" Tan Lingling looked at the two international friends who entered the office.

"Let me introduce you." Ye Fei pointed at Amata and said, "This is Amata Maynard."

He pointed at Balazs again and said, "This is Balazs Hawkins."

"You should know both of them."

Amata said impatiently: "Ye Fei, when will we conduct research on the Gaussian number conjecture in the virtual quadratic field?"

"Don't be anxious!" Ye Fei said, "I'll take you to go through the formalities first."

"Hurry up." Balaz said, "We came to Zhonghu University just to do research with you."

"Okay!" Ye Fei waved, "Let's go, I'll take you to go through the formalities."

After saying that, he took Amata and the two of them out of the office and went to the principal's office.

The principal will handle the formalities for both of them.

Tan Lingling stared at the three people leaving with her mouth open.

After a while, he turned to Zhong Wei and Han Dong and said, "Did I hear wrong just now? The reason why these two came to Zhonghu University is because they want to do research with Ye Fei."

Han Dong shook his head and said, "You heard it right, they came to Zhonghu University just to do research with Ye Fei."

"I'll go..." Tan Lingling exclaimed: "Ye Fei is so awesome, he really poached people."
