Tech Hammer

Probably because of the great distance, the affectionate greetings from across the ocean did not affect Ning Wei at all. Just as he said to Lucy Ron before, which serious college student in China knows how to use Twitter? .

But it's not absolute. He has already begun to regret adding Lucy Ron, a crazy woman, on WeChat. She sent him more than 80 messages in one night, most of which were unreasonable venting of emotions.

Well, actually Ning Wei admitted that maybe this woman did send the message with the attitude of friendly communication at first, but the questions she asked always made him feel weird, so the war started again.

The situation at that time was like this. As usual, Ning Wei started teasing March after returning home from the research center. While supplementing March's main program, he received a WeChat message from this woman.

"Ning Wei, I read your 206-page paper. It's an amazing and creative idea. Please tell me how you did it?" followed by three emoticons with exclamation marks.

Thinking that this woman had not bothered him for humiliating herself for a long time, she kindly condensed the process of writing this paper and replied to her: "Sit there and think about it first, and then wait until you understand it." Write the paper and do it.”

A very sincere answer, unpretentious, because that's exactly what he did at the time. However, after about three minutes, the woman unexpectedly made an unreasonable provocation. Because she used the word FUCK in English, which is not very elegant and insults the status of a female doctor, the approximate meaning translated into Chinese is: "Ning Why, I really want to give birth to a monkey for you!"

And because of these words, Ning Wei thought of Jiang Chenshuang, who made him happy and worried, so he replied to the woman from his heart: "I'm sorry, I already have a woman I like, and you have no chance! "

Then this woman completely exploded. She sent more than ten messages in ten minutes, probably to show off her perfect American speaking skills in front of Ning Wei. This made Ning Wei feel helpless. In order not to disturb Yu Xingwei's rest, , and lead March to bad, Ning Wei had no choice but to reluctantly click on the woman's dialog box and set the message she sent to do not disturb mode.

So I got up the next day, opened WeChat, and saw that this woman had sent as many as 86 messages, and none of them were the same.

What bothered Ning Wei was not this, but the fact that the person represented by the WeChat avatar noted as Classmate Jiang still hadn’t sent a single message. Comparing the two, Ning Wei felt that Classmate Jiang was cuter.

This shows how friendly a quiet girlfriend is to a mathematician. For a mathematician where every minute is important, who has the time to study what more than 80 messages have to say? What, not to mention that at least more than forty of them were direct voice messages.

Of course, this is also what makes people sad.

This quiet girlfriend didn't choose him for his appearance, his status, his property, and especially not his person.

Very annoying! Of course, that wasn't the only thing that bothered him.

In order to show off in front of classmate Jiang how hard he had worked recently and how impressive his results were, he agreed to Tian Yanzhen's willingness to start classes at a suitable time to explain his theory to other doctoral students and graduate students.

In fact, after agreeing in Lao Tian's office that day, Ning Wei forgot about the matter. He is not a professor, nor is he a master's or doctoral supervisor. Taking care of Yu Xingwei alone has already made him feel that he is under pressure that he should not bear at his age. How could he take the initiative to cause trouble for himself, and give trouble to a group of people who are at least older than him? Are three or five-year-old masters and doctors giving lectures?

Pretending is pretending, and working is working. The two should never be confused.

However, what I never expected was that Lao Tian was serious!

He personally contacted the academic affairs department of the center and, without Ning Wei's consent, planned a short course for Ning Wei that lasted for twelve hours, each class lasting two hours: "A new mathematical theoretical framework of big data" 》, and then directly posted it on the official website of the research center.

The cause and effect of this matter are as follows.

Tian Yanzhen actually felt that he had paid enough attention to Ning Wei. For example, he even allowed Ning Wei to ignore the topic he had chosen for himself, and insisted on temporarily changing other topics when applying for the top youth project.

But he didn't study Ning Wei's paper for the first time.

Although Lu Dongyi's reaction in the office that day made him interested in Ning Wei's paper, Ning Wei had only been at the research center for a month after all, and in Ning Wei's own words, he was only making temporary decisions. After receiving some preliminary results, and Tian Yanzhen was busy with his own affairs at the time, he did not let Ning Wei hand over the paper for him to take a look at, but acquiesced to Ning Wei's submission to STOC first.

Then something happened that made his mind numb. He actually saw Ning Wei's paper through other channels! Even these days, many old friends called him to discuss the possibility of inviting Ning Wei to teach at top foreign universities.

So he postponed several less important meetings and patiently studied Ning Wei's paper as a whole. His feelings were probably similar to those of Lu Dongyi at that time.

Ning Wei, Ning Wei, do you have any misunderstanding about the term "staged results"? ! The difference is probably that he really wants to vomit blood!

What STOC would you send for a paper of this level? It would be enough to keep the results for internal digestion first, and then wait until four years later to give a report directly at the International Congress of Mathematicians!

What made him even more speechless was what an old friend said on the phone: "Tian, ​​let that kid come to teach at MIT. Don't delay him. I will recommend him as a candidate for this year's Turing Award, and you can even contact me for him." Friends, believe me, as long as he is willing to come, the Turing Award winner next March is likely to set a new record for the youngest winner in the history of the Turing Award."

How ridiculous! So his future students are likely to become the world's youngest Turing Award winners first.

He strongly resisted the urge to call Mr. Yao next door. After all, Ning Wei has not really won this award yet, but if next year's Turing Award is announced and it really belongs to Ning Wei, Tian Yan really believes that he will definitely win it. I'll make this call.

Because if everything comes true, although Ning Wei is not the first mathematician to win the Turing Award, he will definitely be the first mathematician to win the Turing Award while studying for a PhD in mathematics. Therefore, he became the first and only mathematics doctoral supervisor in history whose disciples won the Turing Award during their Ph.D. studies.

So based on the idea that good news should not flow into outsiders' fields, Tian Yanzhen quickly arranged a twelve-hour course.

In fact, compared to the content of the 206-page paper, it is definitely not possible to explain it thoroughly in 24 hours, but there is no way, the summer vacation is almost over, and the school season will soon usher in, and the research center will also be busy by then. For the time being, only It can be discharged first like this.

After confirming the matter, Tian Yanzhen called Lu Dongyi to reprimand him, and asked him very angrily why he didn't report the contents of Ning Wei's paper to him in detail earlier. This made Lu Dongyi very confused.

After all, after listening to Ning Wei briefly explain his ideas that day, he took Jiang classmate to Tian Yanzhen's office and saw Ning Wei making a report with the respected director Tian. Of course, he subconsciously thought that Tian Yanzhen had already understood it deeply. Rather, it is the content of the paper. After all, who can know the ideas he wants to express better than the author of the paper?

Who knows that Ningwei's words were self-effacement or a "staged achievement" that he believed in, which fooled the big boss.

Then the two of them thought about it carefully together, and finally realized that the main reason was that everything was such a coincidence.

Classmate Jiang happened to be invited that day, so Tian Yanzhen's attention was attracted by Ning Wei's pretentious rhythm and Lu Dongyi's level of praise, and he didn't even notice the particularly sincere element in those words.

So whether he wanted to or not, he enjoyed the treatment only a world-class professor could have at the Mathematics Research Center. I am about to prepare to give two-hour lectures to the master's and doctoral students who have signed up for this course for twelve consecutive days.

The classes are not free. Tian Yanzhen directly gave Ning Wei a class allowance of 20,000 yuan for each class. If the turbulence algorithm had been changed and it was officially authorized to Huawei, Ning Wei would probably have been touched. But now he only I hate why I had to get high for a while that day.

But then again, taking classes can actually be rewarding.

So before preparing for class the next day, Ning Wei told Yu Xingwei very seriously: "Brother Yu, classes will officially start later. You should be more active in class and communicate more with those classmates. If you meet someone suitable Yes, you have strong character and ability. We can talk about it. After you graduate with your Ph.D., I hope you can support this area of ​​applied research. At this time, you should have a plan to train your own team."

Yu Xingwei immediately expressed his position: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiao Ning! I will live up to your trust!"

Of course, apart from these bad things, there is also good news.

For example, Ning Wei and Yu Xingwei both received guest invitations from the STOC conference. Just like last time, although he submitted the paper on his own initiative, the two of them still received VIP treatment. Not only did they not have to pay any fees, but Ningwei would also give a 60-minute report at a conference of thousands of people.

The difference is probably where the meeting is held.

The conference was held at the Montreal International Convention Center in Montreal, Canada. For Yu Xingwei, it was a return to an old place, because he had participated in competitions there, and it was also the place he visited on his first overseas trip.

…

In this way, Ning Wei's life became regular.

Every morning, he starts to think systematically about how to continue to complete his basic theory of big data, and by the way, he will guide Yu Xingwei on his understanding of this mathematical theory. At two o'clock every afternoon, I went to the courtyard to teach about thirty registered master's and doctoral students.

After class ended at four o'clock on time, Yu Xingwei started to discuss Ning Wei's theory with the interest group he formed, usually from four o'clock to six o'clock.

In these two hours, Ningwei will do some organizing work, enter the thoughts into his work notes, and then have dinner.

After dinner, either Lu Dongyi or Yu Xingwei were taken for a walk by Weiming Lake for an hour to discuss some academic issues, and then returned to their offices to continue their busy work.

Nine-thirty is probably the most relaxing time of the day.

Classmate Jiang came as promised wearing a beautiful dress. When the gentle and quiet sound of the piano reached her ears, it was the most relaxing moment for Ningwei all day long. The phone must be in do not disturb mode at this time.

After finishing the perfect spiritual exchange with classmate Jiang, Ning Weihui stood in front of the office window after a moment of deliberation, watching the girl leave quietly, disappearing into the deep night like an elf.

For Yu Xingwei, this time of day is probably when he is most nervous.

Because after watching the girl disappear, it is often the moment when Xiao Ning's mood is the most unstable. Even if he remains silent, he is likely to be frightened by the various comments made by Ning Wei.

For example: "Brother Yu, why don't you really buy a hood, play the role of a gangster, and let me be the hero to save the beauty! But you must be careful, and don't really have any physical contact. After all, I still Never!"

This sentence reminded Yu Xingwei that when Lu Dongyi introduced him to classmate Jiang, when he stretched out his hand to shake hands with classmate Jiang politely, he suddenly heard a cough from behind, and he was so frightened that he raised his hand to touch it. Get over the embarrassment of stroking your hair...

MMP! What are these two people playing at?

Then pack up and go home. Ning Wei will lock himself in the study room and communicate with Xiao Sanyue for about an hour. It is worth mentioning that Yu Xingwei spent a whole day with the help of the merchants to help Ning Wei set up the Sanyue. Yue’s new home. Following his suggestion, Ning Wei submitted an application report for power expansion.

In this way, they welcomed the start of Yanbei University and applied for visas to Montreal. Ning Wei got the doctoral certificate that Tian Yanzhen applied for as quickly as possible after the start of the semester, and made a reservation to attend the conference on September 12th. of air tickets.

So on the night of September 11, Yu Xingwei suggested to Ning Wei solemnly: "I'm flying to Canada tomorrow. Why don't you, Mr. Ning, go talk to her today?"

"Is it necessary?" Ning Wei asked.

"It is very necessary! Think about it, you are just like a general going on an expedition, why don't you talk about something else?" Yu Xingwei said with certainty.

After all, he didn't want to be in Montreal and be stimulated by Ning Wei's resentment that broke out from time to time.

Ning Wei felt that what Yu Xingwei said was very reasonable, so that night, after classmate Jiang finished playing the piano, he went directly to the door of the piano room and said to classmate Jiang who looked at him in shock: "I have to fly there tomorrow. I'm attending an international computer conference, so don't come tomorrow. You can't let Senior Brother Lu listen to you play the piano alone."

"Oh!" Student Jiang replied slightly cautiously.

"Then what do you want to say to me?" Ning Wei asked.

"Have a nice trip." Jiang said weakly.

"That's it?" Under the moonlight, Ning Wei frowned.

"Then...then you must win glory for the country when you go, just like you did last time you attended the conference..." Jiang Chenshuang's voice became weaker and weaker.

Ning Wei blinked and suddenly felt inexplicably happy when he heard this sentence. It turned out that she was not completely indifferent to him. At least she had searched for his name on the Internet and learned about his past.

"This is what you said, and I agree! So if I win glory for the country again this time, you can be my girlfriend! That's how we decided happily!"

After Ning Wei finished speaking seriously, he turned around and left, without giving the dazed girl time to express her opinion...

When Jiang Chenshuang came to his senses and called out: "Ah, wait a moment...", Ning Wei's steps moved faster. Instead of returning to the office, he walked out of the research center and prepared to go home.

Ah……

As long as you go fast enough, the words of rejection will never catch up...
