I Have a Research Support System

Xu Qiu came to the property in the North District, showed the admission notice, and received an access card, a room card, and a key, which corresponded to the door of Building 16, Room 402, and Room 402A in the North District.

Among them, the keys are ordinary copper keys, unremarkable, the kind that costs 20 yuan on the roadside for one and free two;

The access control card is temporary, with a white plastic card surface, with "16-402A" scrawled on it with a blue marker pen, and it needs to be returned to the property after the student card is completed;

The room card is quite special. It is a rectangular piece of metal with a length and width of about 5*2 cm. Card, I don't know how to use it yet.

Walking out of the property, Xu Qiu looked at the map next to the door, and then walked along the road to the front of the No. 16 dormitory building. This place is relatively close to the cafeteria, and the location is not bad.

Unlike the undergraduate dormitory, there is no dormitory aunt downstairs in the graduate dormitory in the North District, it is directly an iron gate.

This kind of iron gate is adsorbed by electromagnetic force, and it can be opened by pulling it hard.

When I was an undergraduate, Xu Qiu heard that there was a violent person who opened the door of the dormitory without bringing his card when he went home at night. Later, it seemed that the person was fine, at least he was not punished by the school. As for whether he was notified I don't know about criticisms. After all, the movement of forcing the door to open is quite loud, and the impact is not very good.

After unlocking the access control, Xu Qiu walked up the stairs to the fourth floor.

The dormitory building here was built relatively early. It is a small six-story building. Each floor has two rooms on the left and right, numbered "X01" and "X02", and there is no elevator.

It is said that the conditions of the dormitories for international students are much better. There are elevators, well-decorated, large areas, private bathrooms, air-conditioning, cable TV, and fast internet speed. Of course, the corresponding accommodation costs are also high. It's all calculated according to the sky.

Single room, long-term international students are 90 yuan per person per day, short-term exchange students are 100 yuan per person per day; double rooms, long-term international students are 60 yuan per person per day, short-term exchange students are 70 yuan per person per day.

Calculated based on three hundred days a year, the most expensive one is thirty thousand a year.

Calculated in this way, it seems to be quite cheap. According to the market in Shanghai, renting a small house will cost three to five thousand a month.

Before coming to room 402, Xu Qiu observed that the door lock was turned to open, but he didn't see the position of the keyhole, so he tried to turn it with his hands but it couldn't turn, so he put the metal piece directly on the doorknob Tried brushing, but no response.

After carefully observing the doorknob for a while, Xu Qiu finally found Huadian. There was a groove on the top of the doorknob. The size of the groove was exactly the width of the metal sheet.

Insert the card, turn, and open the door.

There is no smell of dust and the room is bright.

Consistent with the previous information, the dormitory is a suite structure, with three small rooms A, B, and C, a common living room outside, and a public toilet with a bathroom and two pits, providing 24-hour heating water.

The doors of the three rooms A, B, and C are all open, and there is no one inside, and there is no luggage brought over.

Among them, rooms B and C are rectangular apartment structures with an aspect ratio of about 2:1. The two rooms are parallel to each other, and the internal layout is exactly the same. There are two floor-to-ceiling beds with only bed boards, two desks, and There are several cabinets, and at the end of the room is a public balcony where clothes can be dried.

Room A is independent, with a nearly square shape and the same amount of furniture as the other two rooms. It also has a small balcony, but it is embedded in the building, and the lighting is not as good as the balcony next door.

Xu Qiu was the first to arrive, which is normal. The dormitory information was just released on Monday today. He was the first group of people who saw it, and he chose to act immediately. Some people may not have arrived at school yet.

He wandered around in the dormitory, tried the key in his hand, and it could open the door of Room A normally, then returned to Material One by the same route, and was about to call for someone to carry the luggage together.

At this time, Han Jiaying had already gone to the Xiancai building in Handan to help him with the DSC experiment. Except for her, everyone else was in 216, either coding, doing experiments, or paddling for fish.

Xu Qiu thought about the matter of carrying the luggage, and only called Duan Yun and Sun Wo to help. For the girls, he couldn't bear to ask them to do physical work.

In return, Xu Qiu invited everyone to drink milk tea, and ordered a cup of her favorite matcha latte for Xuemei, which was sweetened with coconut fruit, and noted that the store put less coconut fruit.

Xu Qiu's main luggage was passed down from his undergraduate studies, and it wasn't much, only six woven bags.

Moreover, during the summer vacation, the school has thoughtfully stored the luggage of the graduate students of the school in the warehouse of the property in the North District, and they can be picked up directly in the past.

So, the three of them went straight to the property in the North District. One of them picked up two woven bags and helped Xu Qiu transport them to the dormitory.

After putting down their luggage, the three of them found a bed and sat down to rest while chatting.

Duan Yun looked around for a while, and said: "The structure of your dormitory is very similar to mine, the difference is that I have a single room, haha."

Sun Wo answered, "My room is in 301C, Building 18, and it should be similar to this side."

"Hmm... the dormitories in the North District of Handan should be similar." Xu Qiu was stunned for a moment. If Sun Wo hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten that he and Sun Wo were students in the same class.

Duan Yun asked: "Is there any other luggage that needs to be carried? We will help you solve it all at once."

Xu Qiu thought for a moment: "There is also some luggage, which is placed in the rental house. There are not many things. I will do it myself." There are mainly some clothes to bring back. As for the bed, he intends to directly Give it to cheap roommate Hao Ren.

Duan Yun nodded: "Then Sun Wo and I will go back to the material later."

Xu Qiu sincerely thanked him.

The three rested for a while and parted ways.

Xu Qiu went to the rental house again and packed all the clothes back in a woven bag.

Returning to the dormitory again, he found that there was still no one in rooms B and C, but there was a noise coming from room A.

"A new roommate? Who could it be?" Xu Qiu muttered inwardly. After knocking on the door three times, he pushed open the door of Room A.

Taking a closer look, it turned out to be Sun Yifan, an old acquaintance, bending over to make the bed.

Xu Qiu and Sun Yifan are fairly familiar. When they were sophomores, they used to do experiments together in the experimental class.

However, after Xu Qiu joined Wei Xingsi's research group, he had relatively few contacts, and only met a few times in the Zhangjiang Microelectronics Building.

Sun Yifan is a student in the Wanyousheng group. It is said that he originally planned to study for a three-year master's degree in science, but later he became a direct Ph.D. student.

"Sun Yifan?"

"Xu Qiu?"

"I didn't expect to share a dormitory with you, what a coincidence." Sun Yifan greeted with a smile.

"It's really a coincidence. I thought you would choose Zhang Jiang as your dormitory." Xu Qiu also responded with a smile.

"Isn't this about to move? I'll stay in Handan first. The mobility is relatively high. There are school buses going directly to Jiangwan and Zhangjiang campuses." Sun Yifan explained, and then asked: "By the way, your group Has the Jiangwan laboratory started to be renovated?"

"Now the water, electricity, and gas are all installed, and the fume hood is the only thing missing." Xu Qiu threw the woven bag in the open space and began to make the bed.

"It's so fast, and the decoration progress of our group is really slow. We haven't started yet. I don't know when we will be able to pass." Sun Yifan sighed. The interview, and then entrusted the decoration to a post-doctoral brother in the group, and that post-doctorate lived in Zhangjiang, and he was not happy to let him run back and forth between Zhangjiang and Jiangwan, so he kept procrastinating."

"Perhaps the postdoc in your group wants to wait until he leaves the station before moving to the lab. After all, the postdoc is only two years old." Xu Qiu guessed, and then continued: "Our supervisor has been pressing him hard. In the past two months I ran the bend of the river more than ten times."

In fact, Xu Qiu knew that Wan Yousheng's behavior was the norm for mentors, and there were not many mentors like Wei Xingsi who were comprehensive in every aspect.

Moreover, Mr. Wei mainly relied on the passion he had when he just returned to China. Now the passion has faded away, and there is a lot of salt. It can be seen from his attitude towards Sun Wo. In the past, when Chen Wanqing first joined the group, If there is no result, there is a high probability that they will stare at the experiment every day, and will not directly raise them as they are now.

"How big is your Jiangwan laboratory?" Sun Yifan asked casually.

While spreading the sheets, Xu Qiu replied, "There are two laboratories in total, about 120 square meters in total."

"Oh, that's about the same as ours." Sun Yifan nodded: "We are also two laboratories with a total area of ​​more than 100 square meters. The people in the group have been reluctant to move because the area of ​​Jiangwan is small compared with Zhangjiang. A lot, the instrument may not be able to put it down."

After a pause, Sun Yifan said with a smile again: "I saw your articles on the website of the department before, one AM, one "Nature Communication". I wrote an article on Small, and it’s still at the bottom of the list, so you’re probably going to win the national award right after the start of school.”

Small is a journal under Wiley, literally translated as "Small", which mainly collects nano-related work. Duan Yun published two small articles in the field of thermoelectricity. The grade of the journal is similar to that of JMCA and CM. belongs to the weak area.

"It's okay." Xu Qiu replied calmly. At present, his AM and NC are posted on the official website of the Department of Materials Science and Technology.

He recently counted, and now there are two AM articles, two AEM articles, one NC article, one Angew article, and one ACSEL that has not been released for the time being. In total, seven articles are written by one district, and it will be completed soon. The advanced task of the system.

As for the National Award mentioned by Sun Yifan, it seems that the selection time is almost here, and scholarships are usually announced after the National Day holiday in October.

There are two types of scholarships available for graduate freshman admission.

One is the normal scholarship for freshmen. Except for the professional master’s degree, everyone has a share, and it is awarded according to the nature of the student source. Students like Xu Qiu who are directly studying in the school’s department are the most high-end, but the money is not much, only a few thousand yuan;

The other is the national award. You can apply for a separate application. As long as you want to apply for a professional master’s degree, you can also apply. Of course, you will basically not be able to win the application, because the evaluation of the postgraduate national award is based on the article. To continue to develop in the scientific research circle, naturally there are no articles.

Generally speaking, the path of the national award is still relatively difficult. The more money is given, the more competitive pressure will naturally be.

Even if normal doctoral students want to win the national award, they usually have to wait until the third year of Ph.D., and some people will deliberately suppress the articles during the second Ph.D., and then save the articles of Ph.D. year award.

As for freshmen of the five categories of master's degree, science master's degree, direct doctoral degree, combined master's and doctoral degree, and ordinary doctoral degree, students who are combined master's and doctoral degree students, if they can publish two or three articles in one area and one author during the second year of master's degree, they have the opportunity to send doctoral students It would be very difficult for the other four types of freshmen to get rid of them.

Especially direct Ph.D. students, after graduating from undergraduates, they have to directly compete with all doctoral students in the entire department for the National Award quota, which is very difficult.

As far as Xu Qiu knows, in the past five years, there has been no precedent for a direct Ph.D. student in the Department of Materials to win a national award.

However, is Xu Qiu a normal person?

of course not.

He silently counted his academic achievements, and added in his mind: "There is no precedent, let's create a precedent."

PS: 22.8W words were updated this month, and 4.8W were actually added. There will be a few days of updates starting at midnight tomorrow. By the way, ask for a monthly pass for next month in advance.
