When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 288 Nine schools alliance, jointly cultivate top talents

Alexander was able to become a reviewer for Science. Although he was not a reviewing editor, it still took some ability to get this position.

Lithium-sulfur batteries are a technological breakthrough in new materials, but Alexander's expertise is not in this area.

However, when seeing Wang Donglai's paper at this moment, even though Alexander did not know much about this aspect, he had a strange sense of sudden enlightenment when reading this paper.

It seems that based on this paper, lithium-sulfur batteries can be re-developed.

This feeling came strangely into Alexander's mind.

However, Alexander was not confused by this strange feeling. He understood clearly that this was a complete illusion.

It took Alexander nearly an hour to read the paper, and he let out a long sigh.

Just as he was about to express his emotion out loud, Hans beside him also let out a slight exclamation.

"Alexander, what is the title of the paper you are reviewing?"

Hearing Hans' question, Alexander didn't think much and said, "Study on the influence of specific surface area and pore size of hollow carbon spheres on polysulfide compounds!"

"what happened?"

When Hans heard the name, he took a serious look at his computer interface, as if he wanted to figure out the title of the paper written on it.

"Alexander, do you believe there is such a genius in this world who can do everything?"

Hans asked Alexander seriously.

When asked this by Hans, Alexander was even more confused and had no idea what it meant.

However, after thinking about it, he said aloud: "I think there should be!"

“People like Edison and Einstein definitely count!”

"But what's wrong with you that you suddenly ask such a question?"

After receiving Alexander's answer, Hans sighed and said, "I also reviewed a paper, which is also related to lithium-sulfur batteries. The author is Wang Donglai from China!"

Hans no longer concealed the matter and told it directly.

"What? This is impossible!"

"Wang Donglai actually submitted two papers at once. Isn't he a mathematician? When did he become an expert in materials science?"

Alexander exclaimed, shocked by what Hans had revealed.

He has read a paper submitted by Wang Donglai, and judging by his academic knowledge level, it is definitely worthy of being published!
Now, I heard Hans say that he also reviewed a paper on lithium-sulfur batteries.

Alexander knew exactly what this meant.

Lithium-sulfur batteries may really have a huge breakthrough!
With this thought in mind, Alexander's heart suddenly became hot.

"Hans, we may be witnessing a technological breakthrough that will revolutionize the industry!"

Alexander said this to Hans with a tone of uncontrollable excitement.

Hans was also a smart man, and he reacted quickly after hearing this.

The next second, the two of them tacitly focused their attention on their respective computers.

Alexander read Wang Donglai's paper carefully again and memorized the general ideas in his mind.

As Hans read the paper, the joy on his face became more and more intense.

after an hour.

Hans also finished reading the paper. His expression had long since calmed down, but judging from his bright eyes, it was obvious that he was still affected.

“It’s hard to believe that lithium-sulfur batteries have achieved such a breakthrough!”

Hans sighed softly.

"Yes, there are countless universities and research institutes around the world that are researching lithium-sulfur batteries, and they have just been developed. If the news gets out, who knows how much of an impact it will cause!"

Alexander also sighed, but the next second, he changed the subject and said, "However, I am more curious about how much benefit this technology will bring to Professor Wang Guo from the East. One hundred million, two hundred million?"

In Bald Eagle, it is not uncommon to become wealthy through academic ability.

On the contrary, this kind of thing is very common.

After reading the paper, Alexander was very clear about one thing, that is, Wang Donglai had made a major breakthrough in the research of lithium-sulfur batteries.

To take a step back, even if the research and development is not truly successful, just based on this paper, it is possible to raise a large sum of money from an investment company or apply for a large amount of research funding.

In short, in one sentence, there will definitely be no shortage of money.

"What currency are you talking about? If it's US dollars, then it's impossible, but if it's Chinese dollars, then it's very possible!"

Hans' tone unconsciously revealed a condescending attitude, as if he didn't take currencies other than the US dollar seriously at all.

This is indeed the case. As a Bald Eagle man, Hans has had this idea since he was a child.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Now there is another question. These two papers were submitted by the same person and their contents are somewhat related. Although they have different directions, from an academic perspective, these two are both high-quality and excellent papers. It is inevitable that they will pass the review."

“So, should we choose one review editor or two, and which editor should we choose?”

Although Alexander asked the question, he also gave an answer at the same time, and his meaning was very clear.

That is, the preference is to send two papers to one review editor for review and selection.

Hans could also hear what Alexander was thinking, but he didn't care.

As long as the content of the paper is true, that's enough.

He could make a fortune in the stock market by using this foresight advantage.

Compared with academics and money, it is obvious which is more important.

"This question is very simple. There are many scholars and professors who study this field. I think both Professor Warren from Cambridge and Professor Mark from MIT can serve as review editors."

After listening to the two names Hans gave, Alexander thought for a moment and made a decision, saying, "I think we should choose Professor Mark. Professor Mark's research direction is closest to lithium-sulfur batteries, and his academic level is also the highest."

"Okay, let's do it!"

Hans nodded and agreed.

The next second, the two of them operated the computer, approved Wang Donglai's two papers, and sent them to Professor Mark for further review.

The two were not worried about whether the two papers could be published.

If even the breakthrough paper on lithium-sulfur batteries cannot be published, then there probably won’t be many papers that can be published.

……the other side.

After submitting the paper, Wang Donglai no longer paid attention to this matter.

The paper is only part of it. It will take time to truly implement the relevant technology and apply it on a large scale.

This involves adjustments to the industrial chain, changes in production lines, and so on.

Just leave these matters to Galaxy Technology.

Wang Donglai founded Galaxy Technology not to get rich, nor to enjoy the pleasure of accumulating wealth.

Instead, he wants to achieve his goals through galactic technology.

This has never changed from the beginning to the end.

Therefore, he had already figured out how to deal with the breakthrough in lithium-sulfur battery technology.

That is patent licensing, licensing the technology to domestic companies, allowing them to quickly advance this technology and make it mainstream in the market.

This decision may seem a bit wasteful, and you may not earn as much as if you did it yourself, but it can save you a lot of time and financial pressure.

Becoming the supreme father of major companies through the control of patents is the real way for technology flow to unfold.

In Wang Donglai's plan, lithium-sulfur batteries come to an end here.

Next, his energy will be focused on high-tech fields such as artificial intelligence, semiconductors, and aerospace.

In these areas, only the national team can usually handle the situation.

In China, apart from the field of artificial intelligence, Internet companies can still try one or two, but they have no access to anything else.

However, Wang Donglai is not worried about any restrictions.

In terms of artificial intelligence, I have already recruited and formed a team and started with the artificial intelligence medical assisted diagnosis system project.

The accumulation of technology and data are secondary. The most important thing is to improve production efficiency through technological innovation and give those above you a reason to support you.

True artificial intelligence technology requires the cooperation of the semiconductor industry.

It also requires massive amounts of data confidence, such as large language models and other large models.

Only by feeding on massive amounts of information can qualified artificial intelligence be created.

The semiconductor industry is even simpler.

All we need to do is break the foreign monopoly and achieving localization will be a victory.

From photolithography machines to photoresists, to design software, and so on, from software to hardware equipment and facilities, once localization is completed, it will save the country trillions of foreign exchange.

At the same time, it will add trillions of dollars of consumer demand to the country.

The number of jobs that can be created and the amount of wealth that can be distributed is simply countless and unimaginable.

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world!
When I learned this sentence from a book, I wonder how many young people have set such an ambition.

However, there are very few people who can do this, and the vast majority of them can only do the first sentence, and very few can do the second sentence.

Wang Donglai has a system and unlimited possibilities. The only thing that can restrain him is the ideals and beliefs in his heart.

As it happens, this is one of them.

Tangdu Jiaotong University.

In Xu Songyao's office.

"Dongla, how do you feel about the open class?"

Xu Songyao chatted with Wang Donglai in a gentle tone, and the topic was Wang Donglai's open class at Tangdu Jiaotong University.

During such a long period of time, Wang Donglai has given many open classes, and the number of students attending his classes accounts for almost more than one-tenth of the total number of students in the school.

As what Wang Donglai explained in class became more and more profound, there were not many students who could persist in attending the class.

Many undergraduates majoring in mathematics find it very difficult, and only some who are truly talented in this area, as well as some masters of mathematics, can barely keep up.

Some people agree with Wang Donglai's teaching method, while others oppose it.

At this moment, when Xu Songyao asked this question, he did not mean to criticize Wang Donglai.

Wang Donglai also understood this, so he smiled and said, "It's OK, but this is a slow process, and you won't see much results in a short period of time!"

Although he knew that Xu Songyao would not be impatient, Wang Donglai still gave a warning and said this.

"I know this. It takes ten years to grow a tree and a hundred years to educate a person. School is a place to cultivate talents. The idea of ​​quick success and instant benefits will not work well. I don't force myself to get good grades."

"The way of the university is to manifest the bright virtue, to love the people, and to stop at the highest good."

"The ancients had already summed it up thousands of years ago and passed it down. We, the descendants, should inherit these things. There is no need to blindly learn from the West."

"In ancient times, those who wished to make the illustrious virtue known to the world first governed their country. Those who wished to govern their country first put their family in order. Those who wished to put their family in order first cultivated themselves. Those who wished to cultivate themselves first rectified their hearts. Those who wished to rectify their hearts first made their intentions sincere. Those who wished to make their intentions sincere first acquired knowledge. Acquiring knowledge lies in investigating things. After investigating things, knowledge is acquired. After obtaining knowledge, intentions are sincere. After intentions are sincere, the heart is rectified. After the heart is rectified, the body is cultivated. After cultivating oneself, the family is in order. After the family is in order, the country is governed. After the country is governed, the world is at peace."

"In fact, the ancients have already given the answers, but we, the descendants, do not use them. Instead, we abandon them and blindly learn from foreigners without paying any attention to the differences in national conditions and cultures."

"I can't control other places, but at Tangdu Jiaotong University, I will stick to it for one day as long as I am in charge!"

Xu Songyao's words were heartfelt and sincere, and were obviously what he really meant.

Wang Donglai nodded and said, "As our country becomes stronger, we will sooner or later become stronger in all aspects, including economy and culture, and we will no longer blindly learn from the West!"

Xu Songyao nodded gently, and did not say anything more about this issue. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "The exchange study has been confirmed. After the beginning of the year, you will go to Tsinghua and Peking University for two months for exchange study."

"In 09, after discussions and consultations, nine domestic universities unanimously agreed to sign the "First-Class University Talent Training Cooperation and Exchange Agreement" in accordance with the principle of 'complementing each other's strengths and sharing resources', and prepared to jointly cultivate top talents."

"There are regular exchange mechanisms for undergraduates and postgraduates, as well as for scholars and professors from various schools. This time, Peking University is using this as an excuse to invite you to come to Peking University for exchange and study."

"In addition to Tsinghua and Peking University, several other universities are also open for exchange. University of Science and Technology of China, Harbin Institute of Technology, Shanghai Jiaotong University... are all on the exchange study list. You can think about it carefully and see if there is anything else you want to exchange and learn. You can take this opportunity to exchange and learn."

If Xu Songyao hadn't mentioned it, Wang Donglai would have almost forgotten about it.

Previously, Peking University asked Academician Huang Yun, chairman of the Chinese Mathematical Society, to recruit Wang Donglai to Peking University. After being rejected, he raised this matter.

Wang Donglai doesn’t care. It’s okay to communicate and learn with others, or it’s okay not to go.

Others worry about working in isolation and getting stuck in a dead end.

Wang Donglai didn't have to worry. What's more, with his learning ability, it would be faster for him to read books in the library than to exchange and learn together, so to speak, so that everyone could learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses and make progress together.

Thinking of this, Wang Donglai did not show it, but nodded and agreed.
