From small town scholar to chief scientist

Chapter 181 Full Responsibility and Determination of the List of Apprentices
Zhou Yi was taken aback, looked at them and said:

"A billion?"

"Well, a conservative estimate of one billion depends on how many countries the new asphalt can be sold to, but domestic demand alone will generate at least one billion in patent fees."

Academician Zhang Tiande on the side said.

Zhou Yi said:

"What about you?"

"We have all kinds of material, honorary and administrative rewards from the state. Professor Zhou doesn't have to worry. I believe that you will probably become an outstanding young scholar or a Changjiang scholar in a short time."

Academician Zhang Tiande said.

A super-large national-level project has been solved, which directly saves 1000 billion yuan in the country's finances every year. If this credit is spread,
That would be overwhelming publicity.

"As for whether to announce it or not, I think it depends on you, Professor Zhou, or the meaning of the above. We don't care. To be a scientific researcher really doesn't need fame and fortune. To contribute to the country, to the people, to specialize in the direction of one's passion. that's enough."

Academician Zhang Tiande said lightly.

For the younger generation born after zero, he was not sure what kind of temper he had, so he had to clarify some things with Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi said:

"Look at what the people above say, I don't care, I'm very famous, and I'm about to become an online celebrity professor."

After talking for a while, Zhou Yi left the laboratory and came to Academician Cao's office.

"Academician Cao, I'm going back to Yuzhou to prepare for the unified entrance examination. This project is going very smoothly and can be completed. I should have informed you of the notice from Academician Zhang."

Zhou Yi said very politely in the office.

Academician Cao said:
"Thank you for your help. All the papers involved will have you as the first author or co-first author, and you will be arranged to understand the patents that belong to you alone. Don't worry, we will not be greedy for these things. We mainly It is to contribute to the country and to the people.”

Dongda University is an engineering re-education school directly under the national defense, and it involves many military industries, and Zhou Yi understands the strong patriotism.

As for the joint first author, Zhou Yi has no objection. Although he has done some important work, Academician Cao's team has also done a lot of important work, and Academician Cao's team cannot be completely wiped out just because of one point.

Zhou Yi said:

"I believe you, the matter here is over, then I will go first."

"Okay, Yuan Zhen and I will see you off."

Academician Cao said.

Zhouyi's salute was very simple, a change of clothes, a laptop and a pen, and nothing else.

"I still have a lot of oil, rice, oil and salt left in this room. Brother Yuan Zhen can take it back to his own room, otherwise it will all be wasted. I definitely can't take it away."

Zhou Yi looked at the unfinished food and said.

Yuan Zhen said:

"it is good,"

Academician Cao also said:

"We will regularly arrange people to come here to clean, and Dongda University will also be a home for Professor Zhou."

Zhou Yi said:

"Thank you."

Not long after, Yuan Zhen and Academician Cao drove Zhou Yi to the airport.

When Zhou Yi got on the plane, Academician Cao immediately said:
"Don't mess around with some things in Professor Zhou's room. They will be cultural relics in the future, but it is a trump card that my university has made a name for. If Professor Zhou comes back next time and asks you why you haven't moved, I hope you give me some advice." Reasonable explanation."

Yuan Zhen: . .

"Okay, guide~"

In the evening of the next day, Zhou Yi arrived at Yuzhou Jiangb International Airport, took a taxi, and went straight back to his dormitory.

What Zhou Yi didn't expect was that Yang Shuai and others came back early when school started in a few days.

"Damn it, Zhou Yi!"

The three exclaimed.

Zhou Yi said:

"Haha, it's me. The unified examination will be held in Yuzhou soon. I will come back to cheer on these students. In addition, I plan to interview a few doctors in Yuzhou, and I plan to accept two postdoctoral fellows to do scientific research with me."

"membrane!"

The three said in unison.

At the same age, they are still working hard for real variable functions and complex variable functions without failing courses, but Zhou Yi is post-graduate.

"Go ahead, I'll go to the library."

Zhou Yi put down his salute and went to find Xia Xue.

But when Zhou Yi hadn't reached the library, the phone rang.

Zhou Yi saw that it was Principal Zhang,

"It must be the third master who called the dean and the principal, damn it."

Zhou Yi answered the phone and said:

"Principal Zhang, it's me, I'm Zhou Yi."

"Are you coming to my office, or are we coming to you?"

Principal Zhang said, obviously he is not alone, most likely Dean Miao is also there.

Zhou Yi replied:
"I'll come find you."

Not long after, Zhou Yi came to the principal's office.

"Don't tell us when you come back, Yuda will always be your alma mater."

Principal Zhang complained, but the expression on his face was indeed joyful, and Miao Lai was also in the principal's office.

Zhou Yi said:

"It's already evening today, and school hasn't started yet, so I plan to visit you tomorrow."

"I think you came back because of the unified examination?"

Miao said.

"Well, that's right. Secondly, I want to talk to the senior management of Yuzhou about the introduction of talents. I went to Ugly Country to win awards and recruited a few talents. I feel pretty good. Let's see what the senior management of Yuzhou thinks."

Zhou Yi said what he was going to do when he came back.

Principal Zhang said:
"There is no problem with the arrangement of the unified examination. Yuzhou Academy of Sciences, Yuzhou Normal University and other universities have vacated some classrooms as examination rooms.

As for the issue of talent introduction, we have to discuss it in detail tomorrow, and it will be unclear for a while now. "

Zhou Yi said:

"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."

After chatting about the unified examination for a while, Zhou Yi left with peace of mind.

After having dinner with Xia Xue and strolling by the lake for a while, Zhou Yi went back to the dormitory to continue studying Goldbach's conjecture.

The next day, around eight o'clock in the morning, Zhou Yi received a call from Principal Zhang.

High-level executives from Yuzhou have come to Yuda, accompanied by academicians from various engineering academies teaching in universities in Yuzhou.

Obviously, today's meeting is a meeting with extremely high gold content.

Chief Li, a senior official in Yuzhou, said:
"Professor Zhou, we are indeed planning to spend a lot of money to establish the Yuzhou Advanced Research Institute, which will not be like the University of Science and Technology of China.

Now we can vividly see the development of Huizhou Province, and we will not make short-sighted choices.

We all know that you are a capable person. We have heard about wildfire calculations, modeling of power grids, and the asphalt road project you are currently responsible for. "

Zhou Yi said:

"I plan to introduce a winner of the Sloan Research Award. He is a mathematician who is purely theoretical and has great potential. In addition, I plan to introduce a master in computer science. This is a master-level task in this direction and belongs to the direction of artificial intelligence. .

This kind of talent will be gradually introduced in the next few years, but we need to solve the problem of talent treatment, whether Yuzhou Finance can support the early development of the Institute for Advanced Study. "

Zhou Yi spoke out about the current difficulties, money is always the first, and other things have the support of the court, that is not a problem.

Everything should be given the green light.

Chief Li said:
"Funding was indeed difficult before, but with the support of the central court, it will only be more than that of Yuzhou University, and will not be less than that of Yuzhou University. Don't worry about the funding problem at present, just recruit talents.

It's just that these talents, we have to know that they have real talents, otherwise it will be a waste of national power. "

Zhou Yi directly mentioned a few names, and several academicians of the Academy of Engineering on the side expressed their approval after listening, so in the end, Chief Li said:
"Professor Zhou is solely responsible for this matter. We believe that Professor Zhou will not let us down. There is a lot of investment in it. It is expected that the Institute for Advanced Study will be formed, and the annual funding will reach tens of billions."

With tens of billions of dollars spent every year, Zhou Yi gasped, as if he had underestimated their determination.

Zhou Yi said:

"Okay! I will try to find as many big talents as possible at home and abroad."

"Yuzhou's future domestic and global technological status depends on you, Mr. Zhou."

Chief Li's title changed at the end, obviously betting on Zhouyi.

Zhou Yi said:

"I won't let you down. The tax revenue from my asphalt road patent should be set in Yuzhou, so that Yuzhou's finances will not be too collapsed. In addition, Yuzhou can also open large asphalt factories. I asked Academician Zhang from Dongda University to send Give you the core formula."

Zhou Yi reciprocated. Anyway, the money earned has to be taxed, so why not pay the tax in Yuzhou to form a feedback.

In the future, high-tech industrial parks formed by advanced research institutes must also be established in Yuzhou.

Chief Li said:
"Okay, don't worry about it."

After talking about the details for a while, Zhou Yi got the answer that he was fully responsible for all affairs of the Yuzhou Institute for Advanced Study, and several other academicians also expressed no objection.

Academician Yang, who was scheming at the side, said:

"Zhou Yi, find an appropriate time to announce this news. Since it has been decided, we must do our best from public opinion to all aspects, which can be regarded as planning in advance."

After finishing speaking, many people looked at Zhou Yi, and every college and university advertised on various platforms like crazy every recruiting season. How could the newly established Yuzhou Advanced Research Institute fall behind.

Zhou Yi said:

"Okay, when the time comes, I will still need the platform of seniors."

There are at least five academicians here, counting Zhou Yi and the talents excavated, the news must be shocking!

"It should, I hope you don't think we're not good enough then, haha."

Several academicians laughed.

"By the way, the design drawings of the Yuzhou Advanced Research Institute have been designed. It is a combination of the classical architectural style of the Great Xia Kingdom and the modern style. The main problem is the location. I don't know where to choose."

Principal Zhang said suddenly.

Chief Li said:
"Professor Zhou, what do you think?"

Zhou Yi pondered for a while before saying:
"I really want to build it in my hometown, like Princeton University, built on a small town, with a good academic environment, to avoid the exaggerated mood of students,

But after thinking about it, the traffic there is still too inconvenient, unless it is built near the Mudan County High-speed Railway Station.

So it's up to you to decide, as long as it is within Yuzhou. "

Zhou Yi threw the question to them intact.

"it is good."

Chief Li nodded and said.

After chatting with each other about the details of the Institute for Advanced Study, everyone left.

In the next few days, the unified examination will start as scheduled.

Not only the unified examination for undergraduates, but also the unified examination for master's and doctoral applicants.

On the day of the exam, several schools in Zhouyi went back and forth to invigilate the exam, which drove countless candidates crazy.

Among the younger generation, many people have become fans of Zhou Yi.

At [-] pm on March [-]th, the unified examination ended.

Many invigilators help to enter the test papers into the computer.

As for the grading process, Zhou Yi originally wanted Peony to finish grading the papers within a day, but after thinking about it, he finally decided to let mathematics professors, PhD students and master students in mathematics from various universities help with the grading.

It is too shocking to complete the marking by one person within a day or two.

Only the ten test papers for the master's entrance examination were corrected by Zhou Yi himself.

In one night, ten test papers have been graded, and the scores of the written test are all very high. The difference between the highest score and the lowest score is less than ten points.

So when Zhou Yi was preparing for the retest, he had to see their performance and make a final decision.

Not long after, Zhou Yi asked Peony to send an email and a text message to the ten people respectively.

By the way, I also sent a text message and an email to the postdoctoral applicant.

After finishing these, Zhou Yi went to sleep on the bed after washing.

The next day, a separate auditorium in several courtyards.

The ten candidates and postdoctoral candidates who applied for Dr. Zhou Yi have all come outside the classroom, and they have drawn their own order through drawing numbers.

It didn't take long for the interview to begin.

The first round of interviews is with the person applying for the Ph.D.

These ten master's students are all very strong, they are considered top in the country, after all, Zhou Yi selected them from countless master's students.

Comprehensive interview scores and initial written test scores,
In the end, Zhou Yi chose Chu Li, a girl with a master's degree in probability theory. This girl has a good foundation and has made achievements in application, so she is very suitable to follow Zhou Yi to engage in artificial intelligence.

The other is Zheng Keyu, a basic mathematics student who specializes in differential geometry and differential topology. This person's understanding of this direction is not weaker than that of some doctoral students.

So the last two doctoral students are Chu Li, a 24-year-old girl, and Zheng Keyu, a 25-year-old boy.

As for the other people, Zhou Yi also felt very sorry, it was impossible to lead so many students at the same time.

After the first round of doctoral interviews is over, the postdoctoral interviews will start as scheduled.

The academic direction of these doctoral students has basically been finalized, so after comprehensive interview and written test results,

The two with the highest scores happen to study probability theory and computational mathematics,
One is Wang Guangzhou, a 30-year-old boy, and the other is Bai Yuting, a 29-year-old girl.

The two post-docs are also suitable for doing artificial intelligence with Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi plans to cultivate a few big talents in this direction if he can't find a big one in the direction of artificial intelligence.

So as not to ask others.

As for the recruitment of master's students, it will take three days to get the results. As for the people who will enter the re-examination, the initial number is ten.

In addition, the re-examination also requires an oral English test, a written test for advanced subjects, and an interview.

For the written test of advanced subjects, choose three subjects from the six subjects of "Fundamentals of Functional Analysis", "Complex Variable Functions", "Real Variable Functions", "Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics", "Abstract Algebra" and "Ordinary Differential Equations". door for the exam.

The two masters, Zhou Yi, are going to be trained to become masters in the direction of pure numbers, so during the interview, they will ask them about their intentions in a roundabout way.

PS: Master Apprentice Q2, leave a message to sign up, the name is not good, just PASS. Leave a message on 10.22 or before noon tomorrow, the plot will be written tomorrow, hurry up, don’t wait until it’s outdated, I chose four in the previous message, and remember to change the next time or this time if you didn’t choose a nice name (free word count.)
