From small town academic to chief scientist

The Chinese Academy of Sciences is located in Shangjing, not far from Shuimu University.

Although the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed rapidly in recent years, one thing is that its overall strength is compared to Beijing University, Shuimu University, and even Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Zhejiang University.

There are still some gaps.

Maybe they will catch up later, but there are still many talents in their mathematics institute.

At least in China, even Beijing University is out of reach.

It's just a little low-key.

Field professors and some senior academicians with qualifications can all be hired.

Some old academicians were recruited as mascots, and then helped the Chongqing High Court select academicians, nominate academicians, etc.

As for the math masters from Beijing University, Zhou Yi will also try to recruit a few.

For example, although Academician E Weinan has turned to artificial intelligence, poaching him is tantamount to strengthening the level of the entire artificial intelligence college.

You can also successfully gain his connections and influence in all aspects.

In the past two years at Shuimu University, Zhou Yi often traveled around and kept in touch.

Even discussed the BSD conjecture with Professor Tian.

Not long after, Zhou Yi met Professor Tianye.

Professor Tian Tian said with emotion:

"When your dean recommended you to come to me for graduate school, I was not even happy with it. But now it seems that I am not worthy."

Zhou Yi smiled awkwardly and said:

“Academician Yang from Chongqing Normal University also invited me to go to graduate school.

Most likely, he was a graduate student there. Unexpectedly, Teacher Qiu and Teacher Milno later invited me. "

Tian Ye said:

"Professor Zhou, why did you come to see me today? Go to Chongqing High Court?"

Zhouyi said:

"Yes, Ding Jian of Beijing University and Shan Peng of Shuimu University are willing to join us, as well as the golden generation of Beijing University."

Zhou Yi named a bunch of people.

Professor Tian Tian said:

"There are so many people, will it have any impact if I go?"

Zhouyi said:

“With a large number of people, there will be a collision of ideas. There are young people there, and the mentality is better when you go there, and the air is better than going to Beijing.

And the funding is no less than what you get at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. "

"Let me think about it again, Professor Zhou, how long will it take for you to leave?"

Tian Tian asked.

Zhouyi said:

"Late March."

"Well, I'll give you accurate news before you leave."

Tian Tian said.

Zhouyi said again:

"Professor Tian, ​​take me to Academician Yang Le's place. I would like to invite him to go too."

Tian Ye looked confused and said:

"Professor Zhou, are you poaching your teacher? This may not be easy. He is very old and is not suitable to leave Shangjing. Shangjing has the best medical care in the country."

Zhouyi said:

"Try it. As long as you can join the Chongqing High Court full-time, it doesn't matter if you don't come. Our Chongqing High Court needs a lot of foreign aid."

"OK."

Professor Tian Tian has very high attainments in number theory and BSD conjecture.

He was also invited to give a 45-minute report at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

The level is not low.

Not long after, Zhou Yi met Academician Yang Le.

Academician Yang Le said with emotion:

"When I first met you, I was at the ICCM International Conference of Chinese Mathematicians. I didn't expect that by now, you are already a great master."

Zhou Yi said very politely:

"As fate would have it, I'm relatively lucky."

"Want to invite me to Chongqing High Court?"

Academician Yang Le said as if he had seen through everything.

Zhou Yi did not hide anything and said directly:

"Yes."

The popularity of the Chongqing High Court remains high. We are not fools and there is no need to hide it.

Academician Yang Le looked at his room, exhaled a breath, and said:

"Old man, the Institute of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has been my lifelong endeavor. It has been more than 40 years since its establishment at that time, and I don't want to leave."

Hearing this, Zhou Yi and the other two people's hearts sank, but Academician Yang Le immediately said:

"But don't worry, I will go there on the day you officially list it. In addition, as long as I am alive, I will write an academician nomination for your Chongqing High Court and vote for the people of your Chongqing High Court."

Zhouyi said:

"Thank you, Mr. Yang, please take care of yourself."

Academician Yang Le said:

"In my later years, I have been committed to cultivating domestic mathematics talents. There is a high probability that I will not see the rise of mathematics in Daxia.

I hope you can lead the mathematical community of Daxia to rise again. "

Zhou Yi knew that this was the long-cherished wish of the older generation of mathematicians, especially Academician Yang Le, who had been busy with these things in his later years.

So he said very sonorously:

"Yes, Daxia's mathematics and technology will reach their peak during the Song and Yuan Dynasties."

The peak of Daxia's ancient science and technology was during the Song Dynasty.

Although he is very timid, his brilliant achievements in science and technology cannot be erased.

Qin Jiushao's algorithm could still be heard in algebra when Zhou Yi was an undergraduate student.

As for the rest, you can hardly hear the names of Daxia people.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Yi rushed to Beijing University.

With Academician Yang Le's help, Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past, Daxia Kingdom had to be divided into several hills, so it could be divided into 6 in total.

Shangjing University was founded by Mr. Chen Shengshen and Mr. Xiong Qinglai.

Even though Mr. Xiong Qinglai went from Shuimu University to Shangjing University, Shangjing University still has the biggest math problem.

However, despite its extraordinary origins, Beijing University has the most academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so it has an advantage in some aspects.

Therefore, when Zhou Yi goes to recruit people, it is better to invite them in person, which will show his sincerity.

Although Zhou Yi has the support from above, some rules still have to be followed.

In the entire academic world, in addition to hard power, there is also a focus on human relations, rather than fighting and killing.

When students from the Mathematics Department of Beijing University saw Zhou Yi coming, they felt as if they were seeing a god of plague.

As for the students from other departments, they were taking pictures of Zhou Yi.

Then make crazy pronouncements and other places.

Zhou Yilai went to Beijing Mathematical Institute, which has a lot of traffic.

Not long after, Zhou Yi met Academician E Weinan.

Zhou Yi was not sure about poaching him, but he wanted to give it a try.

Because Academician E Weinan served as the dean of Yuanpei College at Shanghai University and was also the deputy director of the Shanghai International Mathematics Center;

He is also the first director of the Shanghai Big Data Research Institute, with too many titles.

I also won the Maxwell Award, too many to count.

Zhou Yi's goal is not to poach him, and just don't cause trouble for himself in the future.

Sure enough, there was nothing wrong with the communication with Academician E Weinan.

But it still can't be dug out, and it seems that the academician's joining seems to be in vain.

However, it is not certain whether the level of these academicians is as high as that of the Golden Generation or Ding Jian.

Zhouyi then tried to poach academicians such as Wang Shicheng, but it still didn't work.

But just make a good relationship.

Next, Zhou Yi called Liu Gang and Professor Chen Xiuxiong from Huadong Normal University.

Professor Chen Xiuxiong finally declined Zhou Yi.

Because Academician Tian Zhen’s disciple is in Chongqing High Court,

Chen Xiuxiong, together with Donaldson, winner of the Fields Medal, the Crafford Medal, and the Shaw Prize in Mathematics, pointed out Academician Tian Zhen’s academic misconduct in 2017.

He also founded the Institute of Mathematics at Modu University of Science and Technology, and is also a professor at the University of Science and Technology of China.

So it is impossible to come to Chongqing High Court.

He felt sick when he saw Academician Tian Zhen's disciple.

In other words, Zhou Yi was generous and kind, and he was willing to poach Xu Chengyang.

As for their academic achievements, let’s give them a 50-50 split.

After all, Chen Xiuxiong won the Veblen Geometry Prize and proved Yau Shing-tung's conjecture.

Xu Chengyang won the Cole Algebra Prize.

When Zhou Yi returned to Shuimu University, Chen Danqi and others were waiting for Zhou Yi in Zhou Yi's office.

Zhou Yi sat on his chair and said:

"Has it all been done?"

Looking at the expressions of Chen Danqi and Zheng Keyu, this is obviously the result.

"It's done."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"Okay, let's talk next door."

After a while, eight people were in the 404 office. After Chen Danqi inserted the USB flash drive,

said:

"Open the USB flash drive and click on the only PPT in folder one."

After a while, under voice control, a PPT appeared.

Chen Danqi said:

"Professor Zhou, based on your idea, we made it quickly."

Zhouyi said:

"Just briefly introduce the methods and ideas, I think I will understand."

"Okay, Professor Zhou."

Chen Danqi said,

“As we all know, a common method to avoid radar signals interfering with communications is zero-space projection.

The principle is to use a zero-forcing precoder at the transmitting end.

The information of the effective interference channel matrix is ​​used to project the radar signal waveform into the null space area of ​​the interference channel through singular value decomposition, thereby eliminating the impact of the radar signal on the communication system.

The NSP method is adopted for the separate antenna deployment scheme, which effectively avoids mutual interference between the communication system and the radar system.

Another idea to suppress perceived interference is interference neutralization, which involves estimating and reconstructing the radar signal at the receiving end and then subtracting it from the received signal. "

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"Yes, this idea and method are correct. It seems that you are indeed on the right track, and you are better than the top artificial intelligence masters.

We already have the dean and deputy dean of the School of Artificial Intelligence at Chongqing High School.

You continue. "

Chen Danqi continued:

"At the beginning, C. Wang et al. proposed an FMCW interference elimination algorithm based on atomic norm minimization theory and semi-definite programming. The receiving end converts FMCW interference into a single-frequency signal.

The FMCW interference elimination algorithm of semi-definite programming here is replaced by the optimization method in Zhou's geometry.

The efficiency has been greatly improved, at least 10 times better than what he proposed. "

Zhou Yi's brain was running rapidly, consuming a lot of energy in thinking, while Peony was even simulating,

After a while, Zhou Yicai said:

"Your method completes interference spectrum estimation through AN minimization.

And combine the known radar waveform parameters to reconstruct the interference signal, and then eliminate the radar interference at the receiving end, right? "

Chen Danqi's eyes were full of shock and disbelief. The three of them thought about these methods for more than a month.

I also made it after listening to the suggestions of many of my subordinates.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi sat here and listened to her report. After thinking for a few minutes, he understood the principle.

The feeling for Chen Danqi is that she seems to be back when she was a graduate student, and she would meet in groups every week to report her study progress to her boss.

But Zhou Yi is not her teacher, and she is no longer a graduate student.

The content they are currently researching is the key to the future intelligent era. They did not expect Zhou Yi to be so perverted.

Chen Danqi was silent for a long time, and then said with more respect:

"Professor Zhou, you are right. This algorithm basically revolutionizes the transmission performance of OFDM communication receivers in the communication-aware integrated system."

Zhou Yi nodded and praised:

"As expected of a member of the Shuimu Yao class, Zheng Keyu, it's your turn."

After speaking, Zhou Yi looked at Zheng Keyu and Chu Li.

The apprentice he brought out by himself must not embarrass Zhou Yi, otherwise Zhou Yi will really be embarrassed.

Zheng Keyu said:

"Junior Sister Chu Li, let's talk, hehe."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"Chu Li will tell you."

After Chu Li inserted the USB flash drive and opened her PPT, she began to say:

"Teacher Zhou, we also used the optimization method in Zhou's geometry.

Z. Geng et al. once proposed a beam forming interference suppression method, which uses a coherent phase encoding MIMO radar system to perform beam forming and interference suppression processing to eliminate interference in the main lobe and side lobe directions of the radar beam.

B. Li et al. proposed a method for matrix-based MIMO radar systems and MIMO communication systems to negotiate spectrum usage in a collaborative manner to alleviate mutual interference.

We found that the optimization methods they used were not as good as those in Zhou geometry.

So after we improved, we also made transformative breakthroughs.

After the improvement, we jointly designed the communication system and radar system, giving priority to the radar sampling scheme and the communication system precoding matrix. "

Zhou Yi took the words and said:

“This method can minimize the interference of communication signals to radar while meeting communication rate and power constraints.

You have also made great progress. It’s good to start the next project.

You can publish articles in this direction, directly to Chongqing High School, and it can be counted as the doctoral thesis for the four of you. "

Communication perception integration theory and technology involve four directions:

The communication-aware integrated interference control is divided into three small directions:

It doesn't matter if it sends out a direction.

If the three small directions cannot be combined into one, the effect will only be greatly reduced.

So Zhou Yi is not worried either.

Only four people said very happily:

"Okay, Teacher Zhou."

Because it means they can graduate with a PhD.

Including the time they came in advance, it only took less than a year and a half to graduate with a PhD.

It can be regarded as a fairy speed.

Chen Danqi and others on the side were very envious. As expected, only a master can cultivate a master.

Zheng Keyu, Chu Li, Bai Yuting, and Wang Guangzhou obviously already have a touch of boss temperament.

Zhou Yi thought for a while and asked:

"Are you going to get a diploma from Chongqing High School or a diploma from Shuimu University?"

The four of them looked at each other, not knowing how to make a decision.

Chongqing High School now belongs to Shuangfei, while Shuimu University is indeed among the top universities in the country.

This choice seems to be an easy one.

The four of them were stunned for a moment and said in unison:

"Teacher Zhou, we want a diploma from Chongqing High School. After this paper is published, the diploma will be basically useless to us. Moreover, we are rich and do not need a doctorate degree and diploma from Shuimu University."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"In the future, Chongqing High School will not have a lower status than Shuimu University. Now it will continue to assign tasks and work on the remaining directions of communication perception integration theory and technology.

This time, it is much more difficult than last time. Instead of being responsible for a small direction, each team is responsible for a big direction. "

Chen Danqi said excitedly:

"Good Professor Zhou, we have almost mastered the theory now, and have done two large-scale systems in practice, so we can be responsible for a piece of content alone."

Zhouyi said:

“Yes, 6G is basically divided into ten major projects.

The large project we are responsible for is divided into four small projects, and the four small projects are divided into several sub-projects.

Slowly work from sub-projects to the top step by step, first complete a small project, then complete multiple small projects, and finally the entire large project will be solved by us.

Accumulate enough experience and theory here to solve all 6G projects. "

Progressing layer by layer, step by step, Zhou Yi thinks is the best way to train them.

By then, all seven of them will be able to stand alone, no less powerful than Academician E Weinan.

Then if everyone pursues different general directions of artificial intelligence, wouldn’t they be able to monopolize multiple directions of artificial intelligence?

By then, the entire field of artificial intelligence will have to look at Zhou Yi's face.

The seven people also knew that Zhou Yi was training them, and they all said:

"Thank you, Professor Zhou."

Zhouyi said:

"Well, we are all our own, no need to say thank you. I also pack up and prepare to return to Chongqing High Court at the end of the month. It is time to leave Shuimu University."

There was a hint of excitement in the eyes of the seven people, which meant that they were alone in creating a new world.

It has the same meaning as if academicians from one of the top six universities in mathematics go to other universities.

In the hands of others, there are still too many constraints. Even if the Chongqing High Court is now remote, it will be a super holy place for the entire artificial intelligence and mathematics circles in the future.

If Zhou Yi is the originator, then they are the first generation direct disciples.
