Chapter 127 An Invitation from the Other Side of the Ocean

Eve Carly seemed to know that too.

Eve Carly said that she will recently come to China Shuimu University for an academic visit with a delegation from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

She hopes to have the chance to meet Lin Hui during her academic visit to China.

She had some doubts and hoped to get Lin Hui's face-to-face clarification.

Uh, is high-end academic communication so simple and direct?

Lin Hui remembered that Eve Carly marked "Dr. Eve Carly" in her signature.

Is it okay to explain to a doctor face to face?

But there's nothing wrong with that.

If Lin Hui is really asked to explain advanced math problems to others, Lin Hui may not be able to explain clearly.

But if you let Lin Hui tell others about generative summarization algorithms.

Even with the advent of technology, Lin Hui can still say that he is ugly to his face.

There is no way, as the saying goes, there is a priority in learning, and there is a specialization in art.

The first step is to lead the way.

And not only the small classification of natural language processing that involves generative summarization algorithms, Lin Hui is very good at it.

Some other categories of natural language processing have also been involved.

In addition, Lin Hui is also true in many fields related to AI.

In the past few years of working in the previous life, Lin Hui except for the initial rotation.

Most of the rest of the time is spent dealing with various algorithms (mainly AI-related).

Every day is boring reading papers, modifying models, adjusting data, and typing codes.

Now seven years ago, these days of bitterness have turned into blessings.

Anyway, in this time and space, no one should understand this better than Lin Hui.

Judging from the itinerary introduced by Eve Carly.

The group from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology will arrive in the imperial capital on the afternoon of the 22nd.

Coming in such a hurry, Lin Hui even suspected that this group of people came here just for him.

This inevitably surprised Lin Hui a little.

Lin Hui knew that the movements he made in the generative summarization algorithm would be noticed by the research team in the field of natural language processing.

But I didn't expect the team of Waiguo to respond so quickly.

But that's not a bad thing.

Timely contact with some academic teams can accelerate Lin Hui's academic growth and reputation growth.

Of course, Lin Hui knows the coveting of these crooked fruit teams for advanced technology.

But Lin Hui also had plans.

Lin Hui hopes to gain a greater voice in academics as soon as possible.

After having the right to speak, many things can be done easily.

Otherwise, even if you have insight into the future direction, it will be difficult to become an industry leader.

Imagine how funny it would be for a fresh graduate of high school to jump up and say that so-and-so is the cutting edge.

Anyway, Lin Hui felt that he must gain the right to speak academically as soon as possible.

If it really doesn't work, it's fine to spend money on an honorary doctorate.

Anyway, now Lin Hui is basically not short of money.

But compared to a real degree, this is just a bad idea.

After reaching a higher status in the future.

Honorary doctorates are easily criticized.

……

The academic visiting team of the Waiguo people will arrive in the imperial capital tomorrow afternoon.

Doesn't this mean that if Lin Hui agrees to meet Eve Carly, the two of them can meet in a week at most?
However, Lin Hui did not reject Eve Carly's request to meet her.

Judging from the content of the email sent by Eve Carly.

Almost the entire text of the email is about academic issues.

Anyway, Lin Hui feels that this should be a pure person.

Lin Hui likes dealing with pure people.

Moreover, Lin Hui also hoped to get some news from Eve Carly.

After all, not all academic achievements of scientific researchers are released in the form of papers.

If Lin Hui does not obtain some inside information through various means.

In the future, it would be ridiculous to accidentally collide with others when doing knowledge transfer.

In addition to begging to meet Lin Hui.

Eve Carly also invited Lin Hui to study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the email.

As if she was afraid that Lin Hui would not believe her sincerity, she also attached an invitation letter in the attachment of the email.

Lin Hui looked at the attachment, and it turned out to be two invitation letters.

One was to invite him to enter the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to study as an undergraduate in the Department of Computer Science.

The other actually invited him to read a master's degree in computer science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Could it be that you are inviting yourself to study consecutively?

No, if this is the case, it seems that an invitation letter is enough.

Lin Hui thought for a while before he figured it out.

It turns out that these crooked people haven't figured out whether they are undergraduates or high school students.

So I simply sent two invitation letters directly.

Uh, is it so thoughtful?

To be honest, facing these two invitations, Lin Hui was very moved.

Not to mention the master's degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Just the MIT undergraduate invitation letter is tempting.

You should know that if international students apply for MIT undergraduate computer science, they need to score more than 1550 points in the SAT test.

The total score of the SAT test is only 1600 points.

Only calculated according to the scoring rate.

Getting 1550+ in the SAT is almost the same as getting a score of 726.5 or more in the domestic college entrance examination.

The most important thing is if you want to obtain admission qualifications in top international schools like MIT.

In addition to getting high scores, you must have other outstanding strengths.

For example, gaining rankings in international competitions such as IMO, or being outstanding in sports and other aspects.

In short, the MIT admissions qualifications that others seem to have to work hard to obtain are now in front of Lin Hui.

This is undoubtedly very tempting.

Even so, Lin Hui was not deceived by this temptation.

Although the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is good, there is one biggest problem in front of him:

——Language barrier.

Although Lin Hui's English expression is still passable, his English listening skills are also not bad.

But the language barrier is also a big problem.

After going abroad, Waiguo is not everyone's pronunciation is a standard listening accent.

Isn't it embarrassing to not understand what others are saying?
In addition to the language barrier, you will also face a new environment.

Although Lin Hui has a lot of information in his mind.

However, Lin Hui was almost blind to information about the local information of country m.

Just for the computer science major at MIT.

Going to the wrong fruit is the same as learning computers.

However, there are quite a few differences between Waiguo's computer course setting and the domestic computer science undergraduate setting.

Lin Hui is not sure that he can still overcome all obstacles in Waiguo.

As for skipping undergraduate and going directly to graduate school?

It will be bad if you accidentally encounter some black-hearted boss.

Lin Hui doesn't want to be an academic mole in the past.

I have to say, this is really a tangled issue.

Fortunately, the invitation letter from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology stated that it is enough to reply before the end of July.

Lin Hui didn't need to respond to this invitation right away.

Maybe wait until the time comes to contact Eve Carly.

Lin Hui can better understand where he will go in the future.

……

Finish replying to the email from Eve Carly.

Lin Hui didn't reply to the email any more.

After watching TV for a while.

Lin Hui rolled off to sleep.
