Chapter 125 It’s all about mentality(2/3)
The key is that it has only been three days since he arranged this matter to Qiao Yu, so he didn't ask. But this guy just finished the matter without saying a word?
"That's right, didn't Qiao Yu report to you? He pointed out the problem when he went there the day before yesterday. Our laboratory is operating according to his method, and now the situation has stabilized. And the effect is surprisingly good. Currently we only use activated carbon Preliminary experiments have increased production efficiency by 20%.
If you use better materials and complete the data, the laboratory data will be very beautiful! This makes me don’t know how to thank him. You know, in the past, other professors only helped to correct the model, and did not Will give direct suggestions. But this time Qiao Yu not only remade the model, but also directly gave suggestions on experiments."
Tian Yan really understood why the other party called him specifically.
If you just help to correct the model, after the results are completed in the laboratory, it will be enough to treat you to a meal. After all, the Numerical Research Center only helps to adjust the model based on the data. The specific problem is still in the laboratory to fit and simulate the model by itself. analyzed.
Moreover, whether it is the School of Mathematics or the Mathematical Research Center, there are many application-oriented projects that require cooperation with the School of Chemistry.
For example, projects from the Natural Science Foundation include new methods for screening and optimizing antibody drugs based on a combination of high-dimensional statistics and artificial intelligence; topics such as cross-scale simulation of lithium batteries and key material design driven by artificial intelligence.
Professors who engage in mathematics apply, but without the cooperation of the chemistry laboratory and the first-hand data, this type of project cannot be completed at all. However, after this type of project is completed, it is usually given to the main laboratory personnel who participated in the assistance Signed.
In the same way, if the key steps in laboratory operations of chemistry projects are done according to the problems directly pointed out by Qiao Yu, the contribution will be huge. Especially this is a horizontal project.
It would be fine if Qiao Yu was someone else's student, but it happened to be his student, and now he is still a joint training partner of Yanbei and Huaqing Mathematics Research Centers. The other party may not know how to thank him better.
This gave Tian Yanzhen a headache.
He didn't bother to think about Qiao Yu's great ability. He could go to the chemistry laboratory and give specific suggestions directly to others and still be successful. Instead, he asked, "Is there a confidentiality agreement signed for this project?"
"Yes, it is originally to help Party A optimize the production line. Technical details must not be disclosed. And this project currently has the potential to apply for a patent. Even if a paper is published, the technical details will be blurred."
Tian Yanzhen thought for a moment and then said: "I understand. Now, let me ask Qiao Yu what he thinks first."
"Okay, by the way, thank him for me. This is really a hero born in a boy! Professor Tian, I have thought about it. Why don't we just let him come to our chemistry college to attend classes when he has nothing to do? He can get a double degree. He has many skills. Pressure.
Professor Zhang had great ideas, but Tian Yanzhen rejected the proposal directly for Qiao Yuwan: "Haha, okay, I'll mention it to this kid later. But don't get your hopes up. He may still be interested in physics. Forget about chemistry.
Are you kidding me?
Ask Qiao Yu to go to the chemistry laboratory? Qiao Yu would like him, even as a tutor, he would never agree. It's not that he looks down on chemistry.
But why should the new chemistry building of Yanbei University be built outside the east gate, near Huaqing? Do the professors of the School of Chemistry have no idea?
It is not an exaggeration to say that every newcomer who enters the laboratory is a master at committing suicide. In fact, there is no way, not everyone's safety awareness can be established by the teacher's advice.
Often only after experiencing danger can one realize the value of life.
When new chemical engineers arrive in a brand new chemical laboratory, they will feel curious about everything and want to touch and touch everywhere.
When a chemical industry veteran enters a brand new chemical laboratory, the first thing he must do is to find the location of the escape route and determine the location of various fire extinguishers. If he is careful, he should also check whether the fire extinguisher has expired.
Coincidentally, the school happens to be the place where new talents in chemical engineering are trained.
"Hey... I might ask Qiao Yu to help me next time I have a chance. Please convey it to me. If he has any requests, feel free to ask for them. I will try my best to satisfy them. "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Tian Yanzhen closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Then he turned on his phone again and dialed Qiao Yu.
Soon he heard Qiao Yu's energetic voice: "Hey, Director Tian, hello, do you have any instructions? The students are always ready." Tian Yanzhen said, "Well, it seems that you are in a good mood recently.
"Hey, it's fun to have fun. I don't have a clue about Professor Li's topic. But I have almost finished another paper, which is about the analysis of ridged singular points, especially the analysis of singularities. I think it’s pretty good. I’m planning to see where you can recommend it after I finish it.”
Hey guys, another paper is out.
From the perspective of influence, this paper should indeed be published in better publications.
So Tian Yanzhen gave a direct suggestion: "You can consider Invent.Math for this paper. It is also one of the top journals in mathematics, a journal of Springer Press. But I am not asking you this. You have already studied Professor Zhang's topic. Have you finished handling it for them?"
"Yeah, hey, this thing is too simple. I can tell where the problem lies just by looking at the data. I'm embarrassed to report it to you. I suspect those guys in Professor Zhang's laboratory must not have done well in their undergraduate studies. When you study advanced mathematics, you won't be able to see obvious problems.
You can suggest that they all come to our Mathematics Research Center for further study for a period of time. They can take courses such as differential equations, linear algebra, and statistical principles again, so that they will not have to come to us for help in the future."
Tian Yanzhen immediately said a lesson: "Just tell me this. Don't make blind suggestions on other occasions!" "Don't worry, I was very good in the laboratory. I always praised them for their superb skills." Come on."
Tian Yanzhen felt a slight headache. For the first time, he felt that it was not entirely a good thing if the students were too good: "Just be aware of it. Professor Zhang just called and asked you what reward you want."
"Reward? Even if you do a favor, can you get a reward?
Tian Yanzhen explained: "If you just helped adjust the model, I don't think it is necessary to discuss rewards. But since you gave direct suggestions, the rewards can still be discussed. For example, the second paper, but they This is a horizontal project and a technical confidentiality agreement has been signed.
Therefore, even if you publish a paper, it is only a general principle. Those particularly good foreign journals will definitely not be published. If it is a domestic journal, it will not make sense to you. However, if a horizontal project produces results, there will generally be a bonus. It will be more flexible.
"You mean a cash reward? That's great. I've been thinking about how to save money quickly these past two days." "Are you having difficulties in life?"
"I don't have any difficulties in life, but Director Tian, I have big ambitions. I plan to start my own company after graduation. I plan to save enough money to start a business in the future while studying."
Tian Yanzhen felt that his blood pressure was a little elevated and said: "From now on, you should focus on doing mathematical theory! What kind of business should you start? What kind of company should you open? You have achieved results, but are you afraid that you will have no money to use them in the future?"
"No, Director Tian, there is no conflict between starting a business and doing mathematical theory? While I am studying the theory, if I find it has application value, I can also do mathematical applications. Making money means that I don't have to apply for special scientific research funds. You can do whatever research you want to do. Leave more opportunities to others. Are you right?
And don’t worry, in fact, I want to start a business to find something for my mother to do. So I will not focus on the company, I will definitely focus on scientific research. After all, I will inherit your mantle in the future and carry on The person who raises the banner of Chinese mathematics!"
Qiao Yu said something with a small mouth, which suppressed Tian Yanzhen's blood pressure that had just risen. Well, if it was to find something for his mother to do, it would be understandable.
He also heard that Qiao Yu was encouraging his mother to review high school knowledge and prepare to take the college entrance examination. Although Tian Yanzhen was not optimistic about social students taking the college entrance examination, he would definitely not mind helping if he could.
In fact, Yanbei University also has a strong say in business management majors.
The school's Department of Economics and Management includes many well-known colleges. For example, Guanghua School of Management recruits undergraduate students in multiple departments, including the business administration major.
But that is a matter for the future, and it is too early to consider it now.
"Okay, if you don't mind a direct cash award, I will mention this to Professor Zhang. But at this stage, don't be distracted by these things, especially don't worry about money. I will report to the college about the scholarship. This piece will be properly tilted."
"Thank you, Director Tian. I know you won't let me suffer." "The best thank you to me is to focus more on mathematics."
"Well, no problem. How about you arrange another project for me? It's best if I do it alone. It's more difficult. Don't find someone who cooperates with the laboratory. There is no sense of accomplishment after completing it."
"Okay, the task I assigned you last time will be converted into a formal topic. I will wait for you to finish it and submit it to me as soon as possible." "Prime number random distribution model?"
right!
"Don't worry, I promise to complete the task."
Tian Yanzhen hung up the phone and his mind became confused for a moment. A question subconsciously emerged in his mind.
What will Qiao Yu do next semester?
Studying with the elite class seems completely unnecessary.
The original idea of asking him to come to Yanbei University in advance was to let him adapt to the environment in advance.
As a result, the school's rich literature resources combined with Qiao Yu's super self-learning ability produced a wonderful chemical reaction. Forget it, let's just incorporate it into the undergraduate scientific research talent training plan...
You still have to take a spot in the elite class. However, the daily training will still be as it is now. It seems that this is the only way it can be done for the time being...
Yanbei University, Chemistry Laboratory Building.
Except for Chen Jiang, who was washing the endless bottles and cans outside as usual, everyone else gathered in the office area.
There is not much excitement and joy about getting good results, and there is not much depression. If I have to describe it, it is probably that everyone feels quite embarrassed. Of course, the group of people in the office area cannot represent everyone.
For example, Chen Jiang was very happy when he was washing bottles outside. The little tune he was humming followed the door that was not completely closed and broke into the ears of everyone in the office area. Washing bottles brings the joy of washing bottles.
Although I did not get to operate the instruments, I still contributed to the research team. After all, those bottles and jars are not disposable and always need someone to clean them. The most important thing is that this contribution is constant.
It will neither increase a point because the research team completed it independently, nor will it decrease by half a point because the research team hired strong foreign aid. However, the progress of completing the project directly affects the workload. So when you know that this project will be successful, time, you can enjoy this simple happiness.
But it's different for other members.
I have a feeling of why I am such a waste.
"Looking back, this problem is obvious? Why didn't we think of this at the beginning?" After all, some people couldn't stand this embarrassing atmosphere and said something self-deprecating.
The one who spoke was Zhang Haoyuan, who took Qiao Yu around the laboratory the day before yesterday.
He was very enthusiastic that day, but he always felt that Qiao Yu was like a little kid who had never seen anything and had the nerve to act as an expert. He felt a little disdainful in his heart.
After Qiao Yu left, he learned from Chen Jiang who couldn't hide things, how popular this young man was recently, and felt all kinds of envy, jealousy, and hatred. He was also somewhat disapproving of Qiao Yu's suggestions. He always felt that Brother Hao and Lao Qin was thinking too much.
A math student who doesn't know much about chemistry can find problems just by looking at the data? Isn't this nonsense... Professor Lu, who often comes to help, is not that awesome.
To this day, there is only one thought left - it turns out that the clown is actually me...
Now Zhang Haoyuan even feels very lucky. Fortunately, in the past two days, he has only complained a few words and did not express his true thoughts. Otherwise, he would have become a pure clown in the eyes of the laboratory brothers today.
Although everyone won't say it publicly, it makes me uncomfortable when I think about it.
"Hey, it will definitely feel simple afterwards, but how many times have we read the data reports beforehand? We even suspected that there was something wrong with the instrument that automatically recorded the data, and we didn't think of this problem.
So you can make this kind of judgment just by looking at the data. It can only be said that Qiao Yu is indeed a student favored by two top professors. He is too sensitive to data." Qin Zhongliang pushed up his glasses and said pertinently.
"Senior Brother Qin, this is too exaggerated. If you say that, why do we, the chemistry students, need it? In the future, there will be no need for chemistry laboratories. We will just let the math guys do the calculations in the office." Zhang Haoyuan I couldn't help but muttered something.
Liu Hao coughed twice and said: "Okay, Zhang Haoyuan, you are just arguing. This is not the way to belittle oneself. Without a laboratory and without us working, how can we get first-hand initial data? Without data, others can count What kind of analysis will you do when someone from the academy comes here? Do you rely on editing?"
The senior brother in the laboratory spoke, and the office area became completely quiet.
In fact, Zhang Haoyuan also knew that what he said was unreasonable. But he had no choice but to say something, and the inexplicable depression in his heart just couldn't be dissipated.
Think about it, it took three weeks to prepare for this project, and then everyone worked hard in the laboratory for more than two months. In the end, someone sent a little kid to stay for a day and it was done.
Speaking of which, the credit is greater than theirs.
There is nothing worse than the pain of being inferior to others.
After looking around the entire office area, Liu Hao clapped his hands and said again: "Everyone, cheer up. When we can't figure it out, we ask professors from the School of Mathematics to help with common things. In the past, professors only helped us.
Debugging the model, this time Qiao Yu just gave some suggestions.
Moreover, other people's suggestions did help us solve the problem, which I think is a good thing worth celebrating. If you really feel unconvinced, and if you encounter such a problem next time, I will decide that we will not seek help from the Numerical Research Center.
To be continued...
