An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 264 Are You Serious?

"Are you interested in brain-computer interface technology?"

Office of the Dean of the Soft Engineering Institute.

Hearing Hao Yun's question, Dean Li Guoping stopped what he was doing, with a hint of interest on his face. After looking up and down at the student standing at the desk, he spoke in an incredible tone.

"I didn't expect you to be so interested in academic things... I thought you kid is not interested in these things now that you have made a lot of money."

Hearing this ridicule, Hao Yun coughed dryly and said.

"How come? These things are more challenging than making money."

"What you said, I don't know whether you are flattering me or pretending to be coercive," Dean Li Guoping cursed with a smile, and after a pause, he continued in a serious tone, "Currently, brain-computer interface technology It is still at the PPT stage, if you are interested in the commercial application prospects of this technology, I can only tell you that it is too early."

Hao Yun asked.

"But I heard that recent research in this area seems to have made new progress?"

Dean Li Guoping said with a faint smile.

"It seems that you did some homework before you came here."

Looking at Hao Yun who smiled embarrassedly, he nodded and continued.

"That's right, there are indeed rumors about this in the academic circles recently. The Institute of Neuroscience of the Xia Ke Academy and the IDG Institute of Brain Science of the Academy of Human Sciences discovered a special carbon nanomaterial when they were studying 'imitative neuron materials'. materials that allow neurons to fully grow and form new synapses."

"Related papers were published in international authoritative journals in July last year. Initially, this technology was widely regarded by the academic community as the best solution for 'neural prosthetics' and 'damaged nerve repair', but followed by an The report on the field of brain nerves has made domestic electronics industry giants who study brain-computer interface technology interested in this technology.”

"So during this period of time you can see that many academic conferences and seminars are discussing this topic. On the one hand, the prospect behind this research is broad, and on the other hand, there are many big money who are willing to pay for these related researches. After all, doing research also requires money, no matter how relevant it is, you can get investment for your project by making a few PPTs, and such opportunities are rare in normal times.”

After listening to Dean Li Guoping's words, Hao Yun nodded thoughtfully, and continued to ask.

"That is to say... you are not optimistic about this technology?"

"I'm not not optimistic, I just think it's not the time yet," Dean Li Guoping sighed and continued, "If you're asking about the prospect of commercial application, I can tell you clearly that it will be impossible in ten or twenty years. Seeing results."

"But if you ask me about the research prospects of this direction from the perspective of a student, my view is more optimistic. At least in the next ten years, this is likely to be a popular research direction."

"Our Jiangcheng University Soft Engineering Institute's research in the field of neural networks is one of the best in Xiaguo and even the world. No matter which technical route is used for the brain-computer interface, the entire neural network still depends on us to build."

Hao Yun nodded, and continued talking thoughtfully.

"If I want to know about the research progress in this area... Do you have any good suggestions? For example, which professor's research should I pay attention to, or which journal should I follow?"

"Haha, it's okay to pay attention to which professor's research, even if I tell you, do you understand? It's okay, these things are too early for you! You'd better get a solid foundation of undergraduate knowledge first!" Dean Li Guoping laughed and continued, "But if you're really interested, I have a suggestion."

Hao Yun smiled embarrassedly at Dean Li's ridicule, but continued to ask.

"What advice?"

"Exactly three days later, our school will hold a seminar on brain-computer interface technology. The level of the meeting is not low. If you are interested in the research, just go in and listen and ask more questions. I am not an expert in this field, so I can't help you too much, but many professors in this seminar are top experts in this field. You can talk to them more."

After hearing these words, Hao Yun showed a joyful expression on his face, and quickly thanked him.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Dean Li Guoping waved his hand and said with a smile.

"You're welcome, it's not a trivial matter!"

Although he didn't seem to care, from the expression on the old professor's face, Hao Yun could clearly feel that he liked his "teacher" very much.

After thanking Dean Li, Hao Yun left the office in a happy mood.

Just as he was about to go back to the dormitory, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at it. The caller was a senior.

After pressing the connect button, Hao Yun brought the phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

"Have you gone back to school?"

"I came back a long time ago... you have a cold?"

I don't know if it's his illusion, but I always feel that the voice on the other end of the phone is a bit nasal.

"Cold? No... I just arrived at school and haven't had dinner yet. Do you want to join me?"

"Okay, I just didn't eat, so see you at the school gate?"

"Well! Wait for me!"

After hanging up the phone, Hao Yun went to the school gate.

Originally, he thought he would have to wait for a while, but he didn't expect that when he arrived, the senior was already waiting for him at the school gate.

It was February, and the weather in Jiangcheng was still very cold.

She was wearing a khaki coat, a cute knitted hat on her head, and her chin was buried in a beige scarf, revealing only her pretty nose and a pair of watery eyes.

Breathing the white mist into her hands and looking around on her toes, she found Hao Yun who had just walked to the school gate in an instant, her eyes lit up immediately, she straightened her right hand and waved to signal that he was here.

Walking forward with a smile, Hao Yun was about to say hello, but he noticed the strangeness on her face, and he couldn't help but asked slightly in a daze.

"What's wrong with you?"

Although there was some light makeup on his face, he could still clearly see the dark circles under his eyes and the redness in his eyes that couldn't be hidden.

"Huh? Is it obvious?"

Looking at the senior who hurriedly took out the small mirror from her bag, Hao Yun thought that if he told the truth, the dinner might have to be postponed for several hours, so he comforted him with a white lie.

"Actually...it's not that obvious. You can't see it until you walk in. By the way, what's wrong with you? Could it be a conflict with your family?"

"How is that possible?" Lin Mengmeng who put away the mirror chuckled, and gave him a resentful look, "Hmph, you still have the nerve to ask this, and it's not your fault."

"Blame, blame me?" Hao Yun was stunned.

It's really people in the library, and the pot comes from the sky.

He's been thinking about that brain-computer interface these days, there's no reason to offend this aunt?

Seeing Hao Yun's bewildered expression, Lin Mengmeng curled the corners of his mouth in relief and said in a low voice.

"It's the game you made... I played with Jiaojiao all night yesterday. To be precise, I watched her play. Anyway, the ending really made Jiaojiao cry. I comforted her for a long time in the morning. Just put her to sleep."

Although this was not the first time he had heard the ending of someone spit out the scars of the sky, he never expected that the senior who had never played PC games would be so devoted to it, even playing all night.

"You played all night? So now you—"

"It's okay, I've slept through the morning."

After a hutch, Lin Mengmeng continued to speak helplessly.

"It's just that the schedule is messed up, and it will take a few days to adjust."

As she said that, she suddenly changed the topic, stretched out her hand and pulled Hao Yun's sleeve with a happy smile.

"Let's go, let's stop standing at the school gate, I'm starving to death! I heard from my roommate that there is a nice hotpot restaurant near our school, and I'm treating you today!"

The school gate is really not a place for small talk.

Firstly, the flow of people here is not small, and secondly, the two of them are considered half-public figures in the school.

Hao Yun didn't mind what others said about him, but if there was any gossip, it would be bad for the girl after all, so he nodded and said with a smile.

"That's fine."

"It's rare that you are so generous, so I won't compete with you for the order."

Lin Mengmeng punched Hao Yun's arm with his small fist and protested.

"What is rare! Am I usually not generous?"

Hao Yun smiled, and instead of arguing with her about this issue, he said jokingly.

"Great and generous, I have always been very generous, how about I come to you every night for dinner?"

It was originally just a joke among friends, but what he didn't expect was that the senior sister who heard this sentence suddenly blushed inexplicably, and her expression became coy.

"Are you serious?"

That voice was clearly not joking.

The February wind continued to blow.

However, Hao Yun, who was standing in the wind, didn't know how to answer...
