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

"This isn't appropriate!"

In Wang Donglai's office, after hearing Xu Songyao's words, Wang Donglai immediately raised questions.

"What's inappropriate about this? Your achievements in mathematics are already the best in the country. To be honest, if you weren't so young, you wouldn't just be a professor now."

"Besides, you may not be chosen as the question setter. Even if you are chosen as the question setter, it doesn't really matter. Relax and don't put pressure on yourself!"

Xu Songyao was full of confidence in Wang Donglai, and his tone was extremely proud. When he talked about the latter part, he said with relief.

"It's mainly because I've never taken the postgraduate entrance exam, so I don't know how difficult the questions are. If I were to set a question, it would be too difficult or too easy, which would be troublesome!"

Wang Donglai also expressed his concerns.

Hearing Wang Donglai's words, Xu Songyao smiled and shook his head, saying, "You don't have to worry about that. You are not the only one who sets the questions. Someone will review them when the time comes. The difficulty level will be determined by the leader of the question-setting group. If you are really chosen to set the questions, just set your questions and don't worry about anything else."

Having said that, Wang Donglai nodded and said, "Okay, since you've said that, I definitely can't refuse anymore!"

Xu Songyao smiled and nodded, and suddenly said, "Donglai, do you want to be the vice dean of the School of Advanced Mathematics?"

Wang Donglai's eyes moved, and he looked at Xu Songyao and said, "Uncle Xu, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. There's no need to beat around the bush."

Xu Songyao smiled awkwardly, a trace of embarrassment on his face, and said, "Donglai, the only two people who can be proud of in our school's Institute of Advanced Mathematics are you and Yitang. Whether in terms of age or academic achievements, you are the future."

"Without you, our school's advanced mathematics academy would not have achieved any results, and it would be great if it could continue to operate."

As the president of Tangdu Jiaotong University, Xu Songyao really wants to accomplish something.

For example, regarding the professional issues that Wang Donglai raised with him some time ago, Xu Songyao took decisive action after making a decision.

Just thinking about the problems encountered during this period will reveal how huge they were.

When Xu Songyao was the vice president of the Institute of Advanced Mathematics, the higher-ups agreed to Wang Donglai's proposal because of his outstanding achievements.

As a result, the School of Advanced Mathematics was established, with only two experts in this field, Wang Donglai and Zhang Yitang.

As for the rest, there is naturally no need to say more.

Sometimes, Xu Songyao wondered how nice it would be if Wang Donglai was just a math genius.

In this way, I can stay in the Institute of Mathematics and carry forward the mathematics major of Tangdu Jiaotong University.

Instead of being like it is now, with many talents and strong talents in mathematics, computers, applied physics, etc.

In this way, it is difficult for Wang Donglai to focus all his energy on mathematics.

For Tangdu Jiaotong University, there is a big problem, that is the lack of talent!

In fact, Wang Donglai understood what Xu Songyao really meant when Xu Songyao mentioned that he should be the vice president of the Institute of Mathematics.

"Uncle Xu, we are related, so if you have anything to say, just tell me!"

Xu Songyao took a deep breath and said, "In fact, I have discussed with Academician Tian from Yanda University, and we both have the same idea, which is to let you accept two graduate students!"

"The reason why I made this suggestion again is actually because I am thinking about you. Anyone who has made a breakthrough in the academic field will bring a few students with him. There is actually a trick to this."

"Once you become an academician, you can supervise doctoral students. You will also have a lot of projects under you, and it will be easier if you have students to do the work for you."

"I know you don't want to exploit your students, and you don't like this kind of thing. So you should accept students. Some good seedlings can definitely move to the next level after being trained."

"I still have great faith in your abilities. If you can train a few geniuses, it will be a good thing for the domestic mathematics community."

Xu Songyao has brought up this topic several times, but was rejected by Wang Donglai every time.

The reason why he hasn't given up is mainly because of Wang Dong's own reasons.

As Galaxy Technology expanded, Wang Donglai devoted less and less energy to research in mathematics, which can be seen from an obvious example.

That is, this year, Wang Donglai has not written a single paper on mathematics.

This would have been impossible last year.

At the same time, as Wang Donglai shifted his energy from mathematics to other fields, the influence of Tangdu Jiaotong University's mathematics major was also declining rapidly.

Although they knew that this was normal and that all these professional influences came from Wang Donglai, after having experienced that feeling and going back to the past, this gap was not only something that the mathematics students and professors at Tangdu Jiaotong University, but even Xu Songyao found a little uncomfortable.

After all, it was because Wang Donglai’s talent was simply too amazing.

If an ordinary person has one of these qualities, he or she can be considered a gifted person.

But this was not the case for Wang Donglai.

Everyone, including Xu Songyao, firmly believes that under the leadership of Wang Donglai, the mathematics major at Tangdu Jiaotong University will definitely become world-class.

Therefore, everyone holds out a glimmer of hope for the launch of the academic journal "Mathematical Futures" to be on par with the world's top journals.

however.

Wang Donglai is too talented.

Artificial intelligence medical assisted diagnosis system is fine.

Beautiful shot!

The research and development of the artificial intelligence mobile assistant fully demonstrated Wang Donglai's abilities.

Mathematics is the foundation.

Artificial intelligence is an application.

If people were given a choice, definitely not many people would choose mathematics and abandon artificial intelligence.

In this way, seeing Wang Donglai's breakthrough in the field of artificial intelligence, Xu Songyao naturally would not suggest that Wang Donglai focus on mathematics.

The next best option is to let Wang Donglai supervise the graduate students.

The reason why universities such as Yanda and Wudaokou have achieved such achievements in the field of mathematics.

It is not the credit of one person, but the result of the joint efforts of two or three generations.

Therefore, Xu Songyao's insistence on having Wang Donglai supervise graduate students was actually based on this consideration.

While Wang Donglai is still young, he should train some graduate students. With his ability and teaching level, he will definitely be able to cultivate qualified and outstanding mathematical talents.

This will also solve the problem of lack of young talents in the Institute of Advanced Mathematics.

Seeing Xu Songyao's serious expression, Wang Donglai started thinking immediately.

After a moment's silence, he asked, "Uncle Xu, does Yanda also want me to recruit graduate students?"

Xu Songyao explained, "That's exactly what Yanda means. As long as you can train a few graduate students at Yanda, Yanda will help you apply for nomination as an academician."

Wang Donglai nodded and said, "Sure enough, there is no clean place in the adult world, and the same is true in the academic circle!"

"Uncle Xu, I agree to supervise the graduate students!"

Hearing this, Xu Songyao's face suddenly brightened up, and he was about to speak, but was interrupted by Wang Donglai.

"However, I will decide for myself which graduate students I will recruit this time."

The joy on Xu Songyao's face froze, and he was obviously embarrassed by Wang Donglai's request. However, after just a moment, Xu Songyao nodded and agreed, saying, "I agree to this request."

At this point, Xu Songyao suddenly had an idea. He looked at Wang Donglai with shining eyes and said, "Donlai, why don't you just hold a math competition in your name? You set the questions yourself. If anyone can complete the competition, you can accept them as graduate students."

"Even if you don't accept them, you can still invite our school."

"After all, to be able to solve the problem you assigned, he must be a genius in mathematics."

Hearing Xu Songyao's words, Wang Donglai shook his head without thinking and said, "Forget it. There are already many mathematics competitions in China. I have already reached a cooperation with Professor Qiu and changed the Qiu Competition. It would be redundant to have another competition named after me."

"Ugh!"

Xu Songyao understood this logic, but he just didn't think about it at the moment. After being rejected by Wang Donglai, he figured it out and sighed softly.

"In that case, forget it."

"How many graduate students are you going to bring with you this time?"

Xu Songyao looked at Wang Donglai curiously and asked.

Wang Donglai thought for a moment and said, "Three!"

"Well, three is good too."

Xu Songyao nodded and said.

In fact, Wang Donglai's sudden change of mind and agreement to supervise graduate students was not a promise made by Yanda in the future.

Nomination for academician selection.

Is this important?
In fact, it is very important. Without nomination, it is absolutely impossible to become an academician.

However, this is not the case for Wang Donglai.

In terms of achievements, in the field of mathematics, he won the Fields Medal, the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, and the Abel Prize.

In other fields, he also won the Adams Chemistry Award some time ago.

It’s not that Wang Donglai only won these four awards, but that the other awards were not valuable enough and were far inferior to these four awards.

With such academic achievements, Wang Donglai naturally would not worry about not being elected as an academician.

When he makes a breakthrough in the semiconductor field, he will at least receive the country's highest science and technology award.

By that time, even if he wanted to avoid becoming an academician, it would probably be impossible.

Netizens who know his achievements will not agree.

The overwhelming public opinion will also make him deserve this honorary title.

Therefore, Wang Donglai was not very eager to receive the title and honor that the scholar was looking forward to.

What belongs to him will not run away.

Training a few graduate students is a good thing both for Tangdu Jiaotong University and for the domestic mathematics community.

Wang Donglai naturally would not refuse such a thing.

As for supervising graduate students, which might affect his own time, Wang Donglai had a general idea in his mind.

However, what disappointed him was that the system did not respond and no task was issued.

However, this feeling of disappointment only lasted for a moment before it was driven away from Wang Donglai's mind.

Whether there are tasks or not is secondary.

The main thing is to train a few capable helpers.

If human civilization wants to move beyond the earth, it still has a long way to go, and there are still many scientific problems that need to be solved.

No matter how strong Wang Donglai is, his day only has twenty-four hours and he is still a mortal.

The technical accumulation that needs to be completed must also be completed.

The prerequisite technology must also be mastered.

At this time, Xu Songyao suddenly asked, "Donglai, are you planning to recruit graduate students at your school, or at Yanda, or both?"

The reason why Xu Songyao asked this question is actually very simple.

Because it is almost September, schools are about to start, the research exams are long over, and this year's first-year graduate students are about to enter school.

However, if Wang Donglai wants to recruit graduate students, there will be some trouble.

But it's just a little bit, not big.

After all, Wang Donglai's academic achievements and academic reputation are there. As long as the word gets out that Wang Donglai wants to recruit graduate students, I'm afraid the students who sign up will line up for dozens of meters.

However, Wang Donglai's answer surprised Xu Songyao.

"Uncle Xu, I am going to hold an exam for all colleges and universities across the country. I will set the questions. If you are interested in applying for my graduate program, you can take this exam. At that time, I will select you based on your test scores!"

When Xu Songyao heard this, he suddenly felt overwhelmed.

The postgraduate entrance examination is unified nationwide and is also a formal national examination.

After all, postgraduate qualifications are also formal degree qualifications recognized by the state, so they naturally need to be managed more strictly.

Wang Donglai now proposes to set his own questions and recruit graduate students through examinations from universities across the country.

This is simply unheard of.

Just by thinking about it, Xu Songyao could feel the difficulty of this matter.

However, when Xu Songyao thought about how he had finally persuaded Wang Donglai to supervise graduate students, but in the end he couldn't even solve this problem, he felt a little annoyed.

After hesitating for a long time, Xu Songyao finally agreed and said, "I agree to this matter, but I still need to write a report to communicate whether the higher-ups agree or not. What do you think?"

Wang Donglai naturally understood that his request was somewhat embarrassing, so when he heard Xu Songyao say this, he nodded and said, "Uncle Xu, thank you for your help."

"It's not a big deal. If the higher-ups approve it, it will be a good thing for the school. If someone passes the exam and is chosen by you, he or she will be a math genius among all the universities in the country. Then, he or she will study for a master's degree with you and become a student of our school."

"To put it in a disguised way, it's just that we have recruited a math genius for our school. I am very happy about it. How can it be considered a big deal?"

"But I'm worried that the higher-ups won't agree with this approach."

"No, we still have to go to the capital to find someone for this matter!"

As he spoke, Xu Songyao frowned and thought about how to report to his superiors and seek their approval.

soon.

The news that Wang Donglai was going to supervise graduate students quickly spread in the university circle.

For a time, it attracted countless attention. (End of this chapter)
