Chapter 148 I withdrew!

In fact, Tian Yanzhen originally planned to take Qiao Yu to the review meeting so that he could have a certain understanding of the evaluation and review process of fund projects.

This is a roundtable meeting, mainly discussing some complex topics and interdisciplinary projects in the field of mathematical theory research.

But because Qiao Yu unexpectedly proposed an idea, Tian Yanzhen asked Qiao Yu to write the project as soon as possible, jumped into the team, and submitted it.

After all, before the meeting begins, relevant experts must first review the project document.

At the meeting, experts need to briefly report on the main highlights and issues assigned to the project and conduct an evaluation.

For some controversial items, discussions and in-depth analysis will also be conducted. If disagreements arise, further discussions and voting may be arranged.

So Qiao Yu came more confidently this time. Originally he was a spectator, but now he is a representative of the application team, accepting questions and responses from experts.

In fact, before the project document was officially submitted, Tian Yanzhen had an in-depth discussion with Qiao Yu behind closed doors regarding the composition of the team.

Neither of them told the public what they discussed. However, the list was still based on Qiao Yu's choice, and one name was submitted unchanged.

…

Apparently it was not just Qiao Yu who attended the meeting as a representative of the application team.

Qiao Yu got the catalog of the discussion projects before the meeting. For example, the optimization of machine learning algorithms based on quantum information geometry.

It is necessary to introduce the geometric structure of quantum states into machine learning models, study the classification and clustering methods of quantum states, and use quantum gradient optimization algorithms.

Another example is the rapid extraction algorithm for topological features of high-dimensional complex data. It is said that if successful, it can solve the bottleneck of existing algorithms in large-scale data processing.

In short, the team representatives who can be invited to participate in this meeting are all projects that experts are optimistic about.

As for whether these projects can pass the review, Qiao Yu doesn't know whether others know. Anyway, he doesn't know.

Regarding the twists and turns in the review meeting, neither Tian Yanzhen nor Mr. Yuan mentioned it to him. They only asked him to listen carefully when he participated. It was his turn and to explain it well.

This made Qiao Yu feel a little bored.

Because except for his mentor and grandpa Shi, he didn’t know any of the experts or project team representatives who came to this meeting...

Of course, everyone was quite enthusiastic about him before the meeting. But Qiao Yu could feel that there was an unexplainable complex psychology behind that enthusiasm.

It smelled of competition, and it definitely included opinions about his age... But it didn't matter, he wasn't here to make friends this time anyway.

"Dear experts and colleagues: Good morning, everyone. First of all, on behalf of the conference organizer, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all the experts for taking the time to participate in this review meeting despite their busy schedules..."

"Now I declare the meeting officially started. First, I would like to invite Academician Luo Jinglei from the Institute of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to give us a brief introduction to the optimal resource allocation model project in multi-scale energy networks that he is responsible for, as well as the review opinions."

…

After the host gave a simple opening speech, the review meeting officially began.

Qiao Yu just listened casually. It was difficult for him to devote too much energy to projects that he was not interested in. But in this atmosphere, it was not difficult. He could empty his mind and take a good rest.

Just when Qiao Yu seemed to be serious but was actually listening to the academician's report on the stage without thinking at all, he suddenly felt someone touch his arm.

After reacting, a piece of paper was handed into his hand.

People can clearly feel the nostalgic experience.

When he was in Class 13, although he never wrote small notes, it was a daily routine for him to pass notes to his classmates in class.

Especially when there are several couples in the class, there are two routes where he and Zhou Shuang must pass...

Of course, in fact, many times this behavior of passing notes will definitely be noticed by the teachers, but the teachers are just too lazy to take care of it.

This round table meeting is different. There is a large round table in the inner circle where the host and the experts participating in the review sit.

In the outer circle are the team representatives and the people taking meeting minutes. In this case, passing notes is not easy to be discovered.

"Little brother, you are amazing! You can give the opening report at the World Algebraic Geometry Conference at the age of sixteen. I specifically asked you to give this report, which can be called a textbook level report!

I read the topic you applied for this time. One of the research goals is to build a bridge between number theory and geometry. It’s so powerful!

If you can succeed, all the masters in the world will shy away. Really, I think your project will definitely be rated."

Um……

Qiao Yu was a little confused looking at these two paragraphs.

The main reason is that no one seemed to be so direct in praising him before. Even Senior Brother Chen and Professor Xue were very reserved and reserved when they praised him.

Qiao Yu turned his head and glanced at a round-faced professor in his thirties sitting next to him.

The person is not fat but has a round face. With a smile like that of Maitreya Buddha that makes people feel comfortable just looking at him, he looks very sincere.

Qiao Yu remembered that he was introduced by Director Tian before the meeting. This person seemed to be an associate professor at Ludong University, named Yang Yuanyuan.

Now Qiao Yu is no longer an ignorant rookie. Anyone who can be promoted to associate professor under the age of thirty-five must be a very capable boss.

Well, if the boss talks so nice, it must be a business blowback...

So Qiao Yu took out his pen and quickly wrote back two sentences.

"Professor Yang, you are so polite. Your research is really promising. Once successful, it will bring the current level of artificial intelligence to a higher level.

Unfortunately, I am not an expert. If I were, I would definitely recommend your project to be the first to pass. After all, this is the most popular research field now! And it is of great practical value."

After finishing writing, Qiao Yu handed the large white paper to Professor Yang.

After Professor Yang lowered his head to read it, his smile became even brighter, and then he started writing quickly, and then handed it to Qiao Yu.

"Really, that's great! To tell you the truth, a key issue in our project is to explore the algebraic geometric properties of quantum state space.

What is currently being considered is to use methods such as Grassmann's popular and complex geometry to describe quantum states. However, the current progress can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

Qiao Yu, if you are optimistic about our project, why not join in and provide some suggestions specifically for this issue? Don’t worry, after the project is completed, there will definitely be no less thanks!"

After reading what Professor Yang wrote, Qiao Yu felt for the first time that it was not a good idea to follow a boss-level mentor.

He couldn't tell whether Professor Yang was trying to win over him for the sake of his mentor's reputation, or whether he was really impressed by his talent.

The main reason is that her round face makes her look very honest, and her smile is so friendly that almost all the details are hidden.

Qiao Yu felt that Professor Yang must have good popularity in the academic world. This reminded him of Yu Yongjun, who also looked harmless to humans and animals, but was wilted and bad...

But then again, it seems too late to invite at this time, right?

The project has already been discussed at the meeting, and even if you want him to put in a good word for Director Tian now, there is no chance...

From the corner of his eye, he could see that the smile on Professor Yang's face looked more sincere.

This was the first time he encountered such an invitation. After thinking about it, Qiao Yu chose to decline it.

There is no other way. He will be very busy for the next period of time and will not have time to collaborate with other people on projects.

"Professor Yang, I am really optimistic about this project of yours. However, I am not very talented and have many shortcomings, which may delay the progress of the project;

Secondly, in addition to doing some scientific research, my instructor also assigned me a lot of learning tasks, and it was really a pity that I couldn’t spare so much time and energy.

It is indeed a pity this time. If there is such a good project next time, please be sure to invite me again."

After writing it, I handed it over.

"Hey... that's really a pity! It's an honor for our entire research team to be able to work with young talents like you! But I can understand, after all, you are applying for a key project."

After reading this sentence, Qiao Yu thought about it, and then decided to conclude the chat.

"Well, I am applying for a key project, but I am here to accompany you on this project. In fact, I told my supervisor that he was too anxious. I hope to apply again after I have made some achievements, not now. So you Don’t worry, at least we are not competitors this year.”

After handing this sentence to Professor Yang, Qiao Yu turned his head and politely gave the round-faced professor who had changed from a full smile to a look of astonishment a youthful smile for free, and then began to listen "seriously" again. Expert review.

Rather than giving the other party ecstasy, Qiao Yu really felt that both Tian Yanzhen and Mr. Yuan were too anxious.

Moreover, he had already convinced his supervisor before submitting the project book. The reason he used was also very simple.

When this axiomatic framework was just an idea, it was not very convincing. Qiao Yu even felt that he could not convince other professors in the research group.

Everyone is willing to join the research team just to see the face of Tian Yanzhen and Mr. Yuan.

He didn't like this, because he really felt that the early proof work was not as complicated as Tian Yanzhen, Mr. Yuan and Professor Zhang thought.

Qiao Yu really has the confidence to build the framework of the entire axiom system without spending too much.

For some basic work in the early stage, it is enough to have the professors and senior brothers he is familiar with to help with the detailed work! There is no need for support from the Natural Fund at all.

After waiting for a while, he built the entire axiom system and the first batch of research groups were stabilized. It was completely late to apply for funds and so on.

It's not that Qiao Yu is willful, this involves the issue of absolute dominance within a research group.

Although this question was raised by him, with the support of Director Tian and Mr. Yuan, he was only sixteen years old after all.

He didn't want to have to play his cute boyish side inside the research group during group meetings.

The most important thing is that he is still young! You can apply for the Youth Fund until you are thirty-five, so what is there for him to be anxious about?

He originally wanted to not submit this project document at all. Anyway, everyone who should get on the bus has already got on the bus.

But Director Tian finally decided to submit it.

"If you follow the whole process and understand the process, it will not only be beneficial for you to apply for projects in the future, but also be beneficial for you to become a member of the expert panel to review projects in the future."

…

In this way, after several experts introduced their assigned topics, it was finally Qiao Yu's turn.
To be continued...
