From small town academic to chief scientist

When Professor Lepichon and the other three heard this, they instantly looked embarrassed.

Can you guys stop being so direct and shameless?

After all, he is also a figure like the patriarch in his own country.

Have you considered the impact of saying it so directly?

Professor Le Pichon said:

"Are you planning to switch to studying the Earth's expansion theory? Oh no, I think it's more appropriate to call it the dark energy expansion theory."

Academician Zheng said:

"We also held a huge academic conference before, preparing to overturn Zhou Yi's paper in one fell swoop."

Professor Lepichon said:

"Then what?"

Academician Zheng said with a hint of emotion:

"Professor Zhou Yi is indeed a top-notch mathematician, with perfect logic and perfect theory. We can't even find any faults with various geological theories."

The three professors, Lepichon and Morgan, were silent for a while, and so were they.

Academician Zheng continued:

"If we hadn't had a relatively high prestige, my apprentice Sun might have already studied the theory of dark energy expansion."

Professor Lepichon said:

"But we still haven't discovered dark matter and dark energy after all."

Academician Zheng said:

"That's a matter of time. If you remember to call me, I'll tell you the news. I heard that Professor Zhou is preparing to launch an enhanced version of the 'Wukong Plus'."

The three professors Lepichon were silent when they heard this. Of course they knew what the Wukong was.

The world's most advanced dark matter detection satellite, I didn't expect to launch an enhanced version of the dark matter detection satellite now.

It seems that Zhou Yi is fully confident.

Professor Lepichon said very politely:

"Okay, thank you Professor Zheng. We will keep in touch when we have time."

"Okay, let's talk more when you have time, Professor Lepichon."

Academician Zheng also said very politely.

After hanging up the phone, Academician Zheng said alone:

"It's really strange that the originator of plate tectonics actually called me. It seems that geodynamics will change in the future."

"I have to make some changes, otherwise I will be eliminated sooner or later."

At this moment, two Yangtze professors came in from outside.

He said to Academician Zheng:

"Old Zheng, we have prepared how to attack Zhou Yi's paper, starting with dark matter and dark energy, to ensure that Zhou Yi cannot step down."

Academician Zheng looked at the two fools and scolded his mother in his heart, thinking, "Don't take me with you."

Your originator has given up, but I, a young academician, don't dare to rush like this.

"Ah, you guys came just in time. I plan to change my direction in the future and study Professor Zhou Yi's theory of dark energy expansion."

Professor Yang and Professor Zhang looked confused. Weren't you our leader back then?

Why did you suddenly change your mind and become the eldest brother?

"Academician Zheng, what are you doing?"

The two said in surprise.

Academician Zheng said with a serious face:

"Professor Zhou is an academic pioneer and academic master in our country of Daxia. I plan to study geodynamics with Professor Zhou."

Two people:? ? ? .

That's not what you told us in the first place.

The two looked at each other, seemed to have made a decision, and then said:

"In that case, let's take our leave first."

To be able to get into this position, everyone is not a fool and knows how to choose.

The boss surrendered, but the younger brothers had better forget it.

Zhou Yi is not clear about the thoughts of those who engage in geodynamics.

Because in Zhou Yi's view, geodynamics ends here.

The study of geodynamics is just to solve the impact of earthquakes on CEPC. Now the experience in various disciplines is indispensable.

Once the problem is solved, there is no need to be obsessed with this subject.

People in the geodynamics community are generally still studying Zhou Yi's paper.

Because Zhou Yi proposed several development directions in chemical geodynamics.

Not only chemical geodynamics is being studied tirelessly, but people in other fields are also studying it.

Zhou Yi proposed eight new research directions in chemical geodynamics.

It can also be regarded as an opportunity for PhD students in plate tectonics to graduate.

Let them switch to chemical geodynamics and still have a chance to graduate.

Academician Zheng originally specialized in chemical geodynamics.

Now Zhouyi has given eight directions. If you dig deeper, you will not only get results, but also

Maybe he can be one step ahead and become a super master in this field.

Academician Zheng watched them leave and said:

"No wonder even Professor Le Pichon wants to change sides,"

After saying that, Academician Zheng started to read the eight questions of Zhouyi, and then he was going to choose a direction to start with, or ask Zhouyi for advice.

Which direction is more likely to yield results?

“The first is the geochemical composition of the original mantle (whether it was more depleted than now assumed);

The second is the proportion of normal MORB-type mantle in the entire mantle (whether there are geochemical differences between the upper and lower mantles);

These two directions are not suitable for me, so look back.

Hey, the eighth direction seems to have great research value. I need to find an opportunity to ask Professor Zhou. "

Shangjing is now covered in snow and is very beautiful.

In addition to studying the ABC conjecture every day, Zhou Yi takes Xia Xue around for fun.

Shangjing is really beautiful when it snows.

The Forbidden City also directly became the original Forbidden City.

The current Forbidden City was built by Mie Qing on the ruins of Dameng Palace.

Although it is not as grand as the Ming Dynasty, the prosperity of the Ming Empire during the period of Emperor Zhu Di can still be vaguely seen.

The seven voyages to the West and the submission of all countries were no less than at the peak of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

As time passed and the New Year approached, Xia Xue also muttered to go home.

Zhou Yi also felt the need to go home. Since the Qingming Festival, he has not seen the two elderly people at home.

Xia Xue also misses her parents at home.

Moreover, it is 2024, Zhou Yixu is 21 years old, and Xia Xuexu is 20 years old, so preparations for the Three Books and Six Rites have to be started.

Three books, six etiquette, and eight carriages of sedan chairs, Zhouyi will definitely not fall behind.

On February 4th, just after the beginning of spring, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue took a plane back to Yuzhou.

After returning to Yuzhou, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue did not go back immediately.

Instead, I went to visit the teachers who were at Chongqing University.

Xia Xue's dean at the School of Liberal Arts, Zhou Yi's former teacher at the School of Mathematics,

All have to visit.

Zhou Yi was carrying large and small bags, all of which were specialties from Shangjing.

Because these old men have weird tempers, anyone who gives them gifts will be scolded.

Zhou Yi was not sure whether he would be scolded.

It didn't take long to get from the airport to Chongqing University. Zhou Yi took a taxi directly.

Chongqing University also allocated an apartment to Zhou Yi.

After putting away most of the gifts,

Zhou Yi and Xia Xue brought some gifts to the home of Dean Bao, the dean of the School of Liberal Arts.

Dean Bao looked at the two of them and said with a smile:

"Rare guest, rare guest. I didn't expect you to come to my place."

Zhouyi said:

"The Chinese New Year is approaching, and this is Xia Xue's first year in Shangjing, so I bought some Shangjing specialty roast duck and sent it to me. I hope Dean Bao won't postpone it."

Bao Jingnan said:

"Let's go inside and talk. Although it's the beginning of spring today, it's still very cold, and it's even more humid in Yuzhou."

After a while, Xia Xue and Zhou Yi entered the room.

Bao Jingnan said:

"They all went out to visit, and I was reading at home. I hate going out during the Chinese New Year and holidays because too many people ask me to do things, haha."

Zhou Yi and Xia Xue also knew that the dean of a college in a 985 university had an extraordinary status.

Some people ask for help.

"Then it's just a coincidence that we came today."

Zhou Yi said,

"This is a little bit of caution on our part, and we hope you won't delay it."

Zhou Yi and Xia Xue remembered the help Bao Jingnan gave Zhou Yi and Xia Xue.

Bao Jingnan said:

"Haha, if someone gives me something, I will definitely refuse it, but I won't because you have a higher status than me and I don't need to avoid suspicion.

Secondly, I also like to eat roast duck, and I also want to show it off to my friends, haha. "

Hearing this, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s good that I wasn’t rejected.

Xia Xue said with great respect:

"Dean, as long as you like it."

Dean Bao asked:

"How is your studies at Shuimu University going?"

Xia Xue said:

"Fortunately, the book I wrote is already in the review process and should be published next year. As for graduation, it may take about a year."

Bao Jingnan nodded and said:

"Then you want to go back to Chongqing University to teach? 985 undergraduate degree, PhD from Shuimu University. Although you have not gone abroad, you came from our Chongqing University, so it is not so strict."

Xia Xue shook her head and said:

"Thank you, Dean Bao, for your kindness. I have no plans for the time being."

"It's such a pity. You can also ask Zhou Yi to establish some literary schools in the Chongqing High Court to specialize in the study of literature in Daxia and other countries in the world.

For an institute of advanced studies, it is not scientific just to study science and engineering. Literature must also keep up. "

The three chatted for a while before getting up

Bao Jingnan thought of something and suggested.

When Zhou Yi heard this, he realized that this was indeed the case and said:

"Dean Bao's words make sense. I'll go back and think about it."

"Well, let's be like this. I won't let you eat anymore. Judging from your appearance, you still have to visit others."

Bao Jingnan said.

Zhou Yi had an embarrassed look on his face. These old guys had indeed matured with age. It was obvious at a glance.

Zhouyi said:

"Yes, I'm going to visit our dean and Professor Tang."

"Okay, that's it."

Zhou Yi and Xia Xue said:

"Dean Bao, take care of yourself, we'll leave first."

After that, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue stood up to say goodbye.

After leaving Bao Jingnan's house, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue went back to get gifts and went to Miao Lai's apartment.

Professor Tang Ping happened to be there too, saving Zhou Yi and Xia Xue a lot of effort.

You can run less often.

Not long after, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue arrived at Miao Lai's office.

Everyone chatted with each other for a long time, and Miu Lai and Tang Ping were very emotional.

I thought a unicorn would appear, but a real dragon appeared in Shuyuan.

Shocked the entire world of mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

As a result, Miao Lai and Tang Ping often brag in front of some academicians from time to time.

I'm counting the Book of Changes.

When we first read the Book of Changes,

Zhouyi is from the School of Mathematics at Chongqing University.

Three sentences cannot leave Zhouyi.

"Stay us here for dinner tonight."

Miu Lai said very happily,

If his subordinate Shuo Bo came to see him, he would probably ignore it, but they really liked Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi and Xia Xue did not refuse and said:

"good."

In the evening, Professor Tang Ping and his family also came to Miao Yuan’s home.

We had a happy meal and drank the wine collected by Miao Yuan.

After saying goodbye for the last time, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue originally wanted to go back to their undergraduate dormitories.

But remembering that at this time, they had all gone home and returned to the apartment again.

The principal is also very attentive and often has the room cleaned and provided with all kinds of bedding.

Xia Xue looked at Zhou Yi adjusting the bedding and asked with a hint of shame:

"Sleep separately?"

Zhou Yi nodded naturally and said:

"Well, let's go back early tomorrow and hire a taxi. We have quite a few gifts."

Xia Xue looked at Zhou Yi's clear eyes, couldn't help but smile, and said very gently:

"good."

The next day, Zhou Yi and Xia Xue started their journey back home with their large and small bags.

On the way back to his hometown, Zhou Yi felt that the changes had been great. The road to Mudan Mountain was actually very wide.

There are 5 parallel lanes and buses stop there.

It makes Zhou Yi feel that things have changed so quickly in less than a year.

Just when Zhou Yi returned home, international geodynamics reporters and Daxia geology reporters had also hurried to Yuzhou.

When he learned that Zhou Yi and the others were going home, he couldn't help but secretly cursed for taking another step too late.

Then he hurried to Zhou Yi's hometown.

When Zhou Yi and Xia Xue returned to their hometown, they were stunned.

Because my hometown has changed a lot, teaching buildings have been built on the mountain.

Very antique,

It is completely built according to ancient architecture.

There are also many excavators working on the construction site.

It is less than five miles away from where Zhou Yi lives.

Zhou Yi said with a dull look:

"I asked where the Chongqing High Court was built, and it turned out that it was built in my hometown.

Mr. Wang, they had a hard time hiding this from me. "

Xia Xue also looked dull and said:

"Wouldn't it be good to build the Chongqing High Court here?"

Zhou Yi looked at it and said:

“Many hills have been included, and areas that were originally part of the scenic area have also become the school’s back garden.

In spring, students may be able to enjoy the flowers directly in the back mountain. "

Xia Xue said:

"They're so good to you."

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"No wonder the roads along the way are so wide. As for whether it is too remote, aren't the Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University in the same town?

How can I achieve results if I am so restless and restless all day long in academics? Moreover, some of the CEPC courses are still being repaired here.

In the future, the center of CEPC will also be established here, and by then there will be a university with about 100,000 students.

I'm afraid it will become a very prosperous place. "

Xia Xue blinked her beautiful eyes and said:

"I'm afraid there will be an airport built later, or even a dedicated high-speed rail line. It's not impossible."

Zhouyi said:

"Go home first. It's too cold in the wind here, and it's still too cold in the mountains."

Just when Zhou Yi and Xia Xue were carrying large and small bags,

Reporters have arrived in a hurry.

"Professor Zhou, we are reporters from a certain country. Can we interview you with a few questions?"

"Professor Zhou, we are reporters from the Geological Society. Can we interview you for a few questions?"

Zhou Yi looked at the vehicles behind him and couldn't help but said:

"These reporters have noses sharper than dogs, and they can even track us down.

It's better to deal with them here, otherwise the whole village will not be peaceful. "

Not long after, Zhou Yi accepted an interview.

A reporter asked:

"Professor Zhou, do you want to switch to geodynamics in the future?"

Zhouyi said:

"No, I will still delve into the three fields of mathematics, physics and artificial intelligence. Geodynamics is just a casual play."

The reporters present all asked questions:? .

Just for fun and become the founder of this field?

You know interviewing.

Not long after, the reporter asked for a while and proposed to go to Zhou Yi's village to shoot, but Zhou Yi declined in the end.

"It's not appropriate to disturb the villagers, and the Chinese New Year is about to come. Please calm down for a while. Isn't it enough to ask so many questions?"

Zhou Yi finally said sternly.

After all, the reporters from the Geological Society belonged to the official media. Seeing that Zhou Yi was a little angry, he persuaded the reporters next to him to give up.

However, the moment Zhou Yi stepped into the village, the reporters couldn't wait to start editing.

In less than ten minutes, some clips of Zhou Yi’s interviews were posted online.

Academician Zheng and others have not returned home at this time.

Because of the eight research directions proposed by Zhou Yi, he is leading the team's research.

After seeing the video of Zhou Yi's interview, I couldn't help but feel blue veins popping out.

"Just for fun, why don't you kill people like this?"

Not only Academician Zheng saw this video, but Professor Lepichon and Professor Morgan in the U.S. and MacKenzie at the University of Cambridge also saw this video.

Veins suddenly popped out.

Damn it, just playing around is more than what we will study in a lifetime?

Do you want to be so cruel?

The words of those math PhDs seemed to echo in their ears.

A lifetime of qi-nurturing skills was directly shattered by Zhou Yi's few words.

There are a lot of comments online.

[What you try your best to do all your life is not as good as Professor Zhou's casual play. 】

[Just playing with Grandmaster? 】

[There are still people studying geodynamics, an unpopular subject. It’s a dog-headed thing. 】

[It seems that the eight directions of chemical geodynamics can really be studied in depth, and articles can really be published! 】

Many netizens also assisted Aite Zhouyi in scientific research.

[Professor Zhou, are you really just having fun? 】

[Professor Zhou, will you continue to study geodynamics in the future? 】

[Master Patriarch, geodynamics really cannot live without you, we need you. 】

[Master Patriarch, come back and propose a few more research directions. We really want to graduate. 】

Mudan immediately told Zhou Yi the news, and Zhou Yi directly asked Mudan to reply.

[It’s really just for fun, don’t @, I’m really not familiar with geodynamics. 】

Zhou Yi's words made countless students in this direction wail.

[Master Patriarch, woo woo woo, please take me away. Do you know the economic value of this? It’s many, many billions. 】

[Master Patriarch, please, please lead us to charge again. I'm afraid those old guys can't compare to you. 】

[Grandmaster, geodynamics cannot live without you, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem. 】

[Master Patriarch, we are the most pious. I have set up a sign for you. Please don’t abandon us. 】
