Tech Hammer

The scenery on Jiangda campus is very beautiful.

Like all century-old universities, the campus is picturesque with flowers, pleasant greenery, and various ancient-style buildings. Even the names of the dormitories are poetic.

Such as cherry garden, osmanthus garden, plum garden, maple garden, lakeside...

In particular, Maple Garden, which belongs to the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, is located at the foot of Luojia Mountain.

It is very romantic to have a love affair at the foot of this famous mountain full of ancient charm. However, the handsome young man behaved very ruthlessly.

But both parties involved were calm.

Especially Concubine Gong, as if she had never heard of Ning Wei's firm refusal, she continued: "How about I give you 10,000 yuan? Consider it your reputational damage?"

"Are you so rich?"

"My parents went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to apply for divorce one month before my college entrance examination. I entered the examination room on the afternoon of the second day of the college entrance examination, and they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau. I chose not to follow anyone, so I always got two contributions for tuition and living expenses, plus The money given by both parties during last year’s and holidays will still be a bit surplus after two years.”

I would rather be speechless, as it turns out that the joys and sorrows between people cannot be communicated with each other. The little princess from a rich family is really pretentious.

Before today, he would probably have considered it. After all, 10,000 yuan is really tempting for someone with only 500 yuan in his card.

"Then fifteen thousand?" Seeing Ning Wei shake his head, Gong Xiaofei continued to increase the price.

"I'm not short of money, really! Don't think about it! I won't agree." Ning Wei said unmoved, and then looked at the dormitory building not far away, the meaning of his expression was obvious.

I am busy!

Concubine Gong smiled sadly, then she bent her knees slightly, bowed slightly, put her hands together on her waist, and made a very standard classical Wanfu gift, and said in a harsh voice: "Okay, I'll bother you, the hard-hearted Ning Senior."

"Goodbye! Gong Xuemei, who is soft on the outside but strong on the inside." Ning Wei replied.

He didn't believe that this girl who turned her hands into clouds and rain in front of the instructor and professor could be as weak as she appeared right now.

Seeing Concubine Gong turn her head and leave seemingly lonely, Ning Wei shook his head, what kind of nonsense is this?

…

Back in the dormitory, Ning Wei had calmed down.

At the appointed time, Professor Ken called as promised. Since he had never applied for an offer from Imperial College, the first step was to follow Professor Ken's instructions and download Kira, a remote interview software officially used by Imperial College, and register. , log in, and then the formal interview process begins.

I spent ten minutes solving casual interview questions, and then discussed academic issues with Professor Ken in the video.

Ning Wei also saw the professor's real face for the first time.

A typical Western white man, with slightly curly hair, blue eyes, and a fluffy beard. He looks more like a tough guy than a professor.

The interview process is also somewhat similar to the thesis defense process organized by the school.

But this time it was just one-on-two, and there was another person on the other side who was introduced to be Professor Ken's assistant.

After about an hour, the informal interview ended perfectly, and Professor Ken across from him seemed very satisfied.

"Ning Wei, I can't wait to see you on the Imperial College campus. Can you tell me, when you receive the official invitation letter, will you decide to come and report?"

Looking at the sincere macho face in the video, Ning Wei hesitated and replied: "I don't want to lie to you, Professor Ken, but I really haven't decided whether to study in London yet. And I heard that London Consumption is very high, and the tuition fees at Imperial College are also quite expensive..."

"These are not problems. Come on, kid, I can help you apply for free tuition. As for life, you don't have to worry. There are many scholarships at Imperial College, and there are also joint scholarships specifically for Chinese research. With your ability , you can definitely get it!”

"Believe me, this money is enough to cover your living costs, and maybe there is still a surplus. I will help you apply for the awards you deserve! You know, Imperial College has produced two Fields Medal winners. I believe you You have that talent to be the third one!”

"Son, compared to these schools such as Massachusetts and Harvard, Imperial College is definitely the most cost-effective. And we are more friendly to international students, especially Chinese students."

"Really ambitious scholars will not choose those so-called prestigious schools that are established by the descendants of bandits, robbers, thieves, hypocrites, and treacherous people, and are full of nouveau riche flavor. You must know that Imperial College has had With the most elegant and noble aristocratic genes, the great Queen Victoria was one of the founders of Imperial College!”

Professor Ken's words made Ning Wei dumbfounded.

In fact, at least up to this point, he has not received invitations from universities such as MIT and Harvard.

As for whether these prestigious schools are as bad as Professor Ken said, that is a matter of opinion.

But Ning Wei has seen how venomous the mouths of foreign high-level intellectuals can be when they hurt their colleagues.

"Well, Professor Ken, although I can't promise that you will definitely go to Imperial College, I promise you that if I finally choose to study abroad, Imperial College will be my only choice." Ning Wei finally gave his answer. A promise.

"This is the right decision, believe me! I look forward to seeing you on campus."

"Looking forward to it as well. Goodbye, Professor Ken!"

After hanging up the video, Ning Wei was still a little excited.

At least there is a guaranteed school.

Although I haven't received a formal offer yet, I guess Professor Ken won't make fun of him.

Before I could celebrate my future, the phone rang again.

Ning Wei looked at it and saw that it was Director Li's phone number.

It was different from before. When I saw the director calling me, I felt nervous. Now when I saw Director Li calling me, Ning Wei only felt cordial.

Probably as Dean Kong said, the higher you stand, the more goodwill you can get, and you can come into contact with more exciting people and things.

"Hey, Ning Wei, Dean Kong called me just now and asked me to inform you that at nine o'clock tomorrow morning you go directly to the 707 office of the school's software laboratory building to find Professor Lu. The professor will be in the office before nine thirty Waiting for you. We have arranged it for you. You can go in directly by swiping your campus card."

Sure enough, there was good news once again.

"Thank you, Director Li, and also thank Dean Kong for me."

"I'm just passing on a message, don't be so polite. In addition, Dean Kong said that if you concentrate on your project, you don't have to come to class from next week. He will help you say hello to the professor. But it's just You don’t have to go to class, it’s up to you whether you can get credits for the exam.”

"That's no problem!" Ning Wei replied quickly.

Just suddenly thinking that today is already Friday, Ning Wei couldn't help but asked curiously: "Is tomorrow Saturday? That Professor Lu is waiting for me in the office, won't it be too much trouble?"

"How can there be Saturdays and Sundays in the laboratory? It is common to not have weekends when you are busy with projects and papers. All 996s are weak! Once you enter the laboratory, 007 is king! Wait until you study for a postgraduate degree and a Ph.D. That’s it. Okay, that’s it.”

Hearing Director Li's tone of voice where he couldn't bear to look back on the past, Ning felt heartbroken...

It sounds like studying for a Ph.D. degree has no human rights...
