From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

This is the end of Chen Mingkai's defense.

Although there was a small episode at the end, it didn't feel like a big deal to the people present.

Even most people didn't know that Professor Zhao Xin who stood up to ask the question at the end was actually here to find fault.

There's nothing he can do about it, because he hasn't shown his aggressiveness yet, it's just a sign that he has just emerged, and in the end, he was directly silenced by another thank you from Chen Mingkai.

Graduation defenses like this kind of doctoral students generally need to add an acknowledgment link. The acknowledgment is naturally to thank the teachers, friends and family. Of course, among the acknowledgments, the gratitude to the supervisor is naturally the most.

So when Chen Mingkai talked about his thesis and PPT, he had already given thanks.

Of course, because this kind of acknowledgment is often in a procedural manner, unless the acknowledgment is very ingenious, such as writing an article in classical Chinese, it may even be a news item. Generally speaking, for the responding teacher, it is just a read. See if these acknowledgments are copied or written by yourself, it's a matter of attitude.

However, no one expected that after a procedural defense, Chen Mingkai completed such an ingenious thank you by asking a provocative question.

Ever since, when the last five judges gave their scores, they didn't hesitate at all for their own scores. They all gave more than 100 points, and Xu Ji even gave [-] points.

After all, Xu Ji also helped Lin Xiao teach Chen Mingkai back then. Although it wasn't long, they knew each other, so naturally they gave full marks.

In this way, Chen Mingkai became a real doctor unofficially, and he officially became a doctor after the degree certificate was obtained.

"Ming Kai, you did a good job. Congratulations on successfully completing your doctoral defense. The next step is to be a postdoctoral fellow."

After the defense ended, the five academicians of the defense committee, as well as Lin Xiao, took a group photo with Chen Mingkai. Lin Xiao smiled and patted Chen Mingkai on the shoulder, congratulating him.

"Professor Lin taught you well." Chen Mingkai smiled.

"Well, I know all these things."

Lin Xiao smiled gratifiedly.

No matter what, after training Chen Mingkai, he also reaped the best reward he could get as a teacher just now, and it was also the first time that Lin Xiao felt the true happiness of being a teacher.

As for the previous happiness—probably when I acted aggressively in front of the students?

"Ming Kai, your answer just now was very good. Lin Xiao, it's your first time as a tutor that you can have such good students. I really envy you."

At this time, Xu Ji who was next to him also said, and patted Chen Mingkai on the shoulder, thinking that it would be great if he had such a good student, who could write good papers, be alert and know how to behave.

He thought for a while, and then said: "By the way, are you ready to go after graduation? Do you want to stay in school to teach? You can also do projects with me in normal times, and your tutor Lin Xiao is also here."

Chen Mingkai scratched his head, "Well..."

Then he looked at Lin Xiao.

For doctoral graduates like them, it is naturally the best choice to stay in school to teach, especially here at Shangjing University. Being a university teacher is already a very prestigious status in the eyes of others, let alone Shangjing University. university teacher.

Even the status of a researcher at the Dingguang Research Institute is not as good as a teacher from Beijing University in the eyes of the public.

Of course, insiders know about insider affairs. Although the teachers of Beijing University are very good in the eyes of the public, as an insider, Chen Mingkai still has to choose Dingguang Research Institute.

And Lin Xiao also received his meaning from the gaze of his student, and then said with a smile: "I have already planned to let Ming Kai come to Dingguang Research Institute, so... let's see what he means."

Xu Ji was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly, "I forgot this, there is a Dingguang Research Institute in front, okay, then it seems that our Institute of Mathematics at Beijing University has no competitiveness."

Chen Mingkai said: "Thank you Academician Xu for the invitation. I also like Peking University very much. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will return to Peking University. After all, this is my alma mater."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "From now on, you will continue to work hard and publish a few more good papers. Maybe Beijing University will take the initiative to hire you as a professor."

For academic research institutions like theirs, it is quite common to work in research institutes and part-time university professors. Of course, only those with strong academic ability can have such treatment, just like Lin Xiao so.

When Chen Mingkai heard Lin Xiao's words, he couldn't help scratching his head.

From Lin Xiao's point of view, writing a few good papers is like a piece of cake, but from his point of view, it is not so easy.

Of course, now that he has completed a paper that can be published in the four top journals, Chen Mingkai has a little confidence in his heart. Although he does not say that it will be completed soon, there is always a chance to complete it before the age of 35 or 40. Well.

As long as his paper is successfully published in the four top journals, his starting point will be much higher than others.

So with a confident expression on his face, he said: "I know the professor, and I will continue to work hard."

"Ah."

Lin Xiao smiled and nodded.

And Xu Ji also smiled and said: "Ming Kai is worthy of being taught by you, this kind of self-confidence is very similar."

When Lin Xiao was still his student, he was not so confident.

"Come on, Ming Kai, catch up with your mentor as soon as possible."

Chen Mingkai waved his hand quickly, "Ah... this will be discussed later, as long as I can reach one-tenth of Professor Lin's."

"Hey, at least half of the self-confidence you had just now." Xu Ji said with a smile.

Chen Mingkai's face suddenly became bitter.

I'm just kidding, I didn't read the Internet and said that even one tenth of Lin Shen's problem is several world-class problems. If it's half of it, why don't you build a lithography machine first?

Seeing Chen Mingkai's expression, Xu Ji and the others around him laughed even louder.

Next, the defense was finally over, and everyone left here. As for that Zhao Xin, he slipped away early, and if he stayed here, he might not be able to leave.

However, for the School of Mathematics of Peking University, it is obviously impossible to offend the abbot and want to run away, especially Lin Xiao is the one who wants to offend.

As the golden signboard of the Shuyuan, if Lin Xiao's reputation is affected, it will be the Shuyuan who will suffer the loss in the end.

Even those in the several courtyards who were also envious of the treatment that Lin Xiao enjoyed in their hearts expressed their anger at this.

Usually, envy and envy are envy and envy, but if you really want to engage in such disgusting methods, it is obviously against the rules, especially now that what you want to destroy is their vital interests.

So after that, several courts launched various means to sanction that Zhao Xin.

Including but not limited to suspending exchanges and cooperation with schools and research institutes behind Zhao Xin, personnel exchanges, etc.

Of course, these are only on the bright side, the bright side is the least lethal, but the dark side is more lethal, and even directly affects the selection of titles of these units behind Zhao Xin through the relationship and expenses etc.

All in all, this time their School of Mathematics almost did everything they could to ensure that similar things would not happen again in the future.

After all, the academy also knew that there were many people who had opinions on Lin Xiao like Zhao Xin. It happened once, and it passed with Chen Mingkai's wit, but what if there was a second time?

So there is only one way to kill chickens and monkeys.

So just like that, Zhao Xin was in bad luck.

……

In Zhao Xin's office.

He had a sullen face, and he could never forget what happened that day. Who would have thought that such a student could give such an answer at that time.

In the end, not only did he lose face, but his original plan to disgust Lin Xiao also failed, and even made Lin Xiao get the evaluation of a good teacher who educates people and morality.

Then today he also got the news that the School of Mathematics of Peking University will stop any cooperation and communication with them. Maybe it will be impossible for their students to take the postgraduate entrance examination of Mathematics of Peking University in the future. For key universities in 985 universities like them , which greatly affects the quality of students.

He also realized that this was likely to be revenge from several courts.

Regarding this, he also felt a little panic in his heart, for fear that something unexpected would happen in the end.

In the end, he shook his head, let out a sigh of relief, and thought that it would be better not to worry about it so much.

Then he turned his head to look at his several graduate students in the office, and couldn't help feeling resentful in his heart, why didn't any of his students look like that Chen Mingkai?

Frowning, he thought about how to continue to squeeze these students.

But at this moment, there was a knock on the office door, and Zhao Xin saw their department head walk in.

"Professor Zhao, the principal is looking for you, please go to the principal's office."

Zhao Xin suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart, principal?Why not the Dean?
He quickly asked, "Director Wang, what's wrong?"

Director Wang's eyes were cold, and he didn't explain, and said directly: "You will know when you go."

Zhao Xin was taken aback. Director Wang never showed such an attitude towards him before, but now?
"Hurry up, don't make the principal wait too long."

At this time Director Wang urged again.

The uneasiness in Zhao Xin's heart suddenly became stronger.

Could it be that... the School of Mathematics of Beijing University has found their principal?
But at this moment, he could only get up quickly and head to the principal's office.

When Director Wang saw Zhao Xin leaving, he snorted coldly. This guy has influenced their college. Although they are not afraid of Beijing University, they are also among the top 985. He said that he was really not afraid of what would happen to them, but they would not be idle and doing nothing to make Zhao Xin stand out, which was an unreasonable thing to do.

So, let this Zhao Xin bear all the responsibilities.

Then he glanced at Zhao Xin's graduate students. These graduate students were still in a daze, not knowing what happened.

Director Wang said: "You can prepare for a new mentor."

After speaking, they left here.

And Zhao Xin's graduate students were stunned.

What?
Are you ready for a new tutor?
Their mentor is... going to leave?
After a while, they looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.

Finally!
To get rid of that Zhao Sanjin who knows how to oppress them all day long.

Farewell, prison!
