I Am the President of the University

Chapter 796 Struggle for the rise of Chinese mathematics

"Hello, Professor Xu, I am Sun Zheng."

Xu Chenyang raised his head and took a brief look at the plainly dressed young man in front of him with a reserved face. It reminded him of himself who was just as nervous when he first entered Peking University, and he couldn't help but feel good about him.

"Hello, classmate Sun, please take a seat." After saying that, he greeted the waiter in the store and ordered a cup of coffee for Sun Zheng.

"Your counselor should have also informed you, right? According to the relevant regulations of the school, I will be your tutor from now on, responsible for following up on your study progress and course selection guidance."

The number of teachers at Guanghua University this year is no better than last year. As the top source of students, Guanghua College has been able to achieve one tutor for one student.

If the principal hadn't been too busy, he would most likely be in charge of Sun Zheng himself.

"From now on, we will hold regular meetings every Saturday afternoon to report on your study status for the week. Of course, if you encounter any math problems, you can come to me directly in the teaching building or expert building of the School of Mathematics." Xu Chenyang said warmly.

He actually quite likes Sun Zheng's ability to pursue the path of mathematics. After all, the domestic mathematics community is in turmoil. The middle-aged generation is still supported by people like him, Liu Ruochuan, and Zhang Wei, while the younger generation... is just Wei Dongyi for the time being.

Thinking of Wei Dongyi, Xu Chenyang had a slight headache. Wei Dongyi was talented in mathematics, but his language skills were too poor. Even if mathematicians valued talent more, they still needed to communicate with others and even go to conferences. report on.

Even in the future, as a professor in the Department of Mathematics, I will have to teach students how to do it if they cannot understand it.

In this way, the other party can only become a scientific research scholar.

It is not unusual for Sun Zheng to get perfect scores in the college entrance examination. Every year, many freshmen admitted to Peking University can achieve this.

But it’s rare to get a perfect score in Science Comprehensive Science, and it’s even rarer to get a total score of 735.

This shows that Sun Zheng's learning ability and talent are quite high.

"Okay, Professor Xu." Sun Zheng sat upright.

At this time, the coffee also arrived. After thanking the waiter, I picked up the coffee with both hands and took a sip. My tense nerves were much relieved.

During the class meeting in the morning, the counselor announced each person's corresponding tutor, and posted the list in the notification group, asking them to add their tutor's WeChat account today.

When Sun Zheng saw the name of his tutor, he didn't feel anything. After all, he was just an ordinary high school student before and knew nothing about academia. The only mathematicians he knew were from textbooks, such as Hua Luogeng and Chen Shengshen. , Chen Jingrun, Qiu Chengtong and others.

It wasn't until some research on Baidu that I realized that Professor Xu Chenyang was also quite powerful. He was known as the head of the golden generation of Peking University and is now a representative figure among young and middle-aged people in the domestic mathematics community.

I just didn't expect Professor Xu to be so approachable.

"Does that start next Saturday?"

"Next Saturday?" Xu Chenyang looked strange.

He shook his head and said: "Next time it will be after the National Day."

"After National Day? Isn't it every week..." Sun Zheng looked stunned, and his head was getting more and more confused. Didn't he agree to do it once a week?

Xu Chenyang hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Well, I guess you will receive a notice tonight. The freshman ceremony will be advanced to September 4th. The military training mobilization meeting will be held on the 5th. The military training will start on the 6th. The military training will be over. It’s the National Day holiday.”

"Professor, I remember that Guanghua's military training lasted for two weeks, wasn't it? This..." Sun Zheng asked in confusion.

Not only the military training at Guanghua University lasts for two weeks, but also the military training at many domestic universities basically lasts for two weeks.

Sun Zheng is looking forward to this military training. After all, Guanghua University has conducted military training in the army since last year. That is the real military training.

"It's a bit complicated. It won't be easy to explain for a while. You'll know when you come back for the National Day." Xu Chenyang had no choice but to deal with it, as it was hard to reveal the new dormitory management plan.

"Oh." Looking at Professor Xu's mysterious look, could it be that the school is going to make some big noise?

In any case, he is quite happy that the military training time has been extended.

After all, for most people, military training may be only once in their lives.

Then we chatted for more than half an hour, discussing subjects and studies.

By the time Sun Zheng left, it was already past 3 p.m.

"3:17."

Lu Zhou glanced at his watch and walked into the coffee shop.

He stood at the door and took a cursory glance, then walked straight ahead.

He walked over to a table and sat down.

"professor."

Xu Chenyang put down the pen in his hand, looked at the person who came, and couldn't help but smile.

"Xiao Lu, you have made quite a stir in the United States this time. This time you have made a name for yourself in the domestic mathematics community."

For an undergraduate to be the first author and publish a paper in one of the four major journals of mathematics, it is terrifying even internationally, let alone China.

If it were more than ten years ago, we would have graduated directly on the spot + specially appointed full professors and doctoral supervisors.

Lu Zhou heard the ridicule in Xu Chenyang's tone and said helplessly: "Professor, please let me go."

He somewhat underestimated the impact of the paper.

After he returned to school from the United States yesterday, he didn't know who spread the news. A group of boys rushed into his dormitory and made a mess.

"You have to get used to this, you won't be able to avoid this situation in the future."

Xu Chenyang smiled and continued to ask: "How did you feel about going to MIT this time? Did you gain anything?"

“I feel like I was too far away from the world before.”

Lu Zhou's eyes were complicated and he sighed: "As for the gains, maybe I got the approval of Professor Stephen and Professor Edward, and got a few offers, but my study abroad plan has to be advanced."

Another thing that surprised Lu Zhou was that the students at MIT, no matter how careless they were, had outstanding abilities.

For example...the principal entrusted Brother Cao Lihao to take care of them.

This Brother Cao seemed to be unreliable, but once he encountered a problem that he couldn't solve. Brother Cao solved it after just one look, which shocked Lu Zhou.

Sure enough, it is not easy to get into MIT.

"The more qualified people are, the more they want to study abroad. Only by going to other countries and higher institutions will they not be stuck in the same place. Moreover, it is forbidden to keep academic circles behind closed doors. Go out and communicate more."

Xu Chenyang supports studying abroad, but some keyboard warriors on the Internet often regard studying abroad as unpatriotic. This is actually a very narrow sense of patriotism.

To be truly patriotic, you should devote yourself to national construction and influence others with your own actions, rather than being patriotic on the keyboard.

But Xu Chenyang also knows that many international students never come back after seeing the colorful world outside.

Xu Chenyang is not this kind of person, so after completing his studies, he rejected invitations from prestigious universities such as Columbia University and Harvard University and resolutely embarked on the road back to China.

"I shouldn't say more. Everyone should make their own decisions in life, but I still hope that at a future international conference of mathematicians, you will take the stage to give a report as a Chinese mathematician." Xu Chenyang Seriously.

"Professor, I will definitely return to China." Lu Zhou said with a serious face.

"No matter what happens in the future or what achievements I achieve, it will not change my identity as a Chinese, nor will it change my determination to return to China!"

"I will fight for the rise of Chinese mathematics throughout my life!"
