I Have a Research Support System

Xu Qiu and Han Jiaying went to other venues to listen to several reports.

At around six o'clock in the afternoon, today's meeting was almost over, so they contacted Wu Feifei and gathered at the entrance of the venue.

Today's report, after listening to it in general, is still rewarding.

However, this kind of harvest is more of an enrichment of experience and an expansion of vision.

To say that it can really improve the current scientific research level quickly and significantly, it is not necessarily true.

Because what is recorded are relatively trivial and unsystematic inspirations and opinions given by others, which cannot be directly applied to one's own scientific research work.

Of course, these trivial inspirations and viewpoints may one day collide with my own inspirations during experiments, produce wonderful reactions, and then take my work to a higher level. That is also very possible.

This is the same as knowledge, there is never too much, read more miscellaneous books when you were a child and in college, and after graduation, you will have an extra way to write online articles and make a living.

After the three of Xu Qiu got together, the first thing they discussed was what to eat for dinner, mainly because they ate donuts at noon, they were not full, and now they are a little hungry.

After some discussion, they decided to try the mobile food truck parked next to the venue.

There are a total of three dining cars here, with a distance of tens of meters between each other.

Xu Qiu made a general investigation and found that the food trucks sell different types of meals, two of which mainly sell hamburgers, hot dogs and sandwiches, and one mainly sells beef rolls.

Considering that it is rare to eat beef rolls in China, but it is relatively easy to eat hamburgers, hot dogs and sandwiches, they finally chose the dining car of beef rolls.

A chalkboard hangs outside the truck, with prices written on it in colored highlighters:

The cheapest beef roll is $6, and the more expensive ones are $7, $8... all the way up to $10.

Compared with the donuts I ate at noon, the price of the beef rolls is still a bit expensive, but it is acceptable. After all, people in the beautiful country have to accept the prices here.

As for the difference in the price of different beef rolls, it is mainly due to the difference in ingredients. If additional beef and cheese are added, the price will be higher.

Some are similar to the dark dishes outside the school gate at night in China. There are stalls selling grilled cold noodles and pancakes. The cold noodles or pancakes alone are about five or six yuan. If you add tenderloin, add 2 yuan more and add eggs.

It’s just that in China, the price of the single plus is usually listed separately, but the price of the beautiful country has been calculated in advance, saving the additional steps of calculating the price. Maybe this is because the beautiful people are not good at mathematics?

In addition, in supermarkets and other stores that are easy to pay electronically, they like to "deceive people" by marking the price as US$0.99 or US$9.99, while restaurants that are easy to receive cash are more "honest" and the price is marked Usually it is an integer, otherwise it would be troublesome to pay a few cents for each order.

In the end, Xu Qiu spent $33 and bought three $10 deluxe beef rolls, all of which were "calorie bombs" with double beef and double cheese.

The portion of the beef roll in hand was quite large, and Xu Qiu couldn't hold it with one hand.

To be honest, if you want to buy such a luxurious version of beef roll in China, it is estimated that you will have to spend 30+ soft sister coins.

Xu Qiu took a bite, and the juice overflowed. The beef roll was filled with miscellaneous things, including beef, peas, lettuce, shredded cheese, onions, pickles, and an unknown sauce. It's unpalatable.

I don't know if it's because of luck, but when Xu Qiu came to Beautiful Country, he ate at three restaurants in total. Whether it was the Mexican food that Wei Xingsi had as a treat, the donut shop that he ate at noon today, or the beef roll at night, he didn't feel like he was offended.

That is, the calories of the dishes are generally relatively high.

Xu Qiu didn't really mind this, but he could hear Wu Feifei and Han Jiaying muttering: "It's a sin, I must eat something lighter next time... Aww, it's so delicious."

At about seven o'clock in the evening, the three returned to the hotel.

Today is the first day of the MRS conference. There are no activities in the convention and exhibition center at night, but starting from tomorrow, which is the 3rd, the schedule will be more abundant.

In addition to the normal meetings during the day, a number of activities will take place in the evening, including:

Poster session (poster exhibition), vendor exhibition (supplier exhibition), and even job fair (recruitment fair).

This is how it was advertised in the publicity, and Xu Qiu is not very clear about the specific form of the event.

After taking a shower in the hotel, Xu Qiu took out the MRS conference brochure, and then spent half an hour confirming the plan for listening to the report tomorrow - he and his juniors will move around 4 lecture halls and listen to 12 reports, most of which are Most of the reports are related to organic photovoltaics.

After making the plan, Xu Qiu lay alone on the big bed in the hotel, guarding the vacant room, a little bored.

He saw the TV on the cabinet, so he found the TV remote control, intending to watch the TV channels of the beautiful country, and see the difference between them and the domestic TV channels.

Generally speaking, when it comes to international relations, the content of media reports will beautify one's own country while vilifying other countries that are competitors.

It's also normal. In fact, this is a form of modern warfare. A war on ideology is a war without gunpowder.

If the will of the people in a country is disintegrated by the enemy, then the country will collapse on its own.

National self-confidence, especially the national self-confidence of the people at the bottom is very important, because they are the easiest to be manipulated, the most impulsive, and the largest number.

Those who are middle-class people often have certain social resources and have received a certain amount of education. They will be relatively rational, or "weaker". A decisive way to give up the chance of gene continuation, and less likely to take extreme behaviors of retaliating against society.

Therefore, although we would laugh and say that a certain 7 o'clock program summed up as nothing more than "the leader is very busy, the people at home are happy, and the lives of people abroad are in dire straits", but from the perspective of the country, this is what the official media must do .

TV on...

Xu Qiu was already mentally prepared, but he was still shocked.

The screen that popped up on the homepage was actually a restricted-level picture, two white girls, the picture was hazy, like looking at flowers in a fog, I don't know what they are doing...

Just use this to test the cadres?

So, with the purpose of learning, Xu Qiu clicked play, and then a paid page popped up: a single playback of the movie requires a payment of 29.99 US dollars, and if you register for a membership of 59.99 US dollars, you can enjoy it for a day...

Are foreigners like this?

At this time, the door of the room was knocked suddenly.

Xu Qiu hurriedly turned off the TV, then put on his slippers, walked to the door, looked through the cat's eyes, found Han Jiaying outside, and opened the door.

The junior girl seemed to have taken a bath, with light makeup on her face, perfume on her body, and a leather pajamas.

Xu Qiu hung the "Do Not Disturb" sign outside the door, and put on the metal anti-theft chain on the door, then locked the door, and then asked knowingly, "Why are you here looking for me?"

Han Jiaying said solemnly: "I just want to discuss with senior brother... our schedule for tomorrow."

Xu Qiu let out an "Oh" and reluctantly believed what the school girl said, then took the plan he had just written from the coffee table next to him, sat on the edge of the bed, and explained: "I have already made the schedule for tomorrow, let's go together The four exhibition halls are respectively..., and a total of 12 reports were listened to..."

Just halfway through speaking, Xu Qiu felt something was wrong. A pair of obstacles appeared in front of him, blocking the light, and he was about to take action, but it was too late.

Han Jiaying launched an attack from Xu Qiu's front and pushed hard: "Hey, I'm going to be on top today."

The school girl had a fulfilling night as she wished...

In Xu Qiu's heart: "Hey, boys are away from home, so you still have to take care of yourself."

The next day, Xu Qiu woke up around six o'clock in the morning. Last night, his sleep quality was not bad. The junior girl felt the movement and woke up.

After the two washed up one after another, they ate eight-treasure porridge and instant noodles for breakfast.

Most people in the beautiful country cook breakfast by themselves, and it is difficult to find breakfast shops on the street.

Therefore, foreign tourists like them who travel for a short period of time can only solve it by themselves and eat some convenience food for breakfast.

In fact, you can also eat hotel buffet, but the price is too expensive. A four-star hotel like Hilton costs dozens of knives for a buffet. In order to save money, they booked a room that did not include meals.

After breakfast, Xu Qiu put $5 under the pillow as a tip.

Generally speaking, if you tip in a beautiful country hotel, low-star hotels or motels are one dollar per person, and high-star hotels such as four-star and five-star hotels are two dollars per person. If the room is messed up , need to give more appropriately.

Like this time, because Xu Qiu and the others made a mess in the room last night, he gave an extra dollar.

In addition, although the state-owned tipping culture is beautiful, Shi Zang who stays in the hotel will generally tip more implicitly. He will not directly put the tip in an obvious place, but will put it in a more hidden place, but the hotel cleaning staff will definitely be able to see it. place, such as under the pillow.

This was what Xu Qiu heard from Wei Xingsi, and he didn't quite know why, probably because he wanted to surprise the cleaning staff of the hotel?

Also, this also reflects that Mr. Wei has stayed in hotels in the beautiful country, and he knows all about such things.

The first report this morning starts at eight o'clock.

Therefore, Xu Qiu and Han Jiaying didn't stay in the hotel for morning exercises, they went out at around 7:50 in the morning and went directly to the venue.

They also did not choose to go with Wu Feifei, they just sent each other a message to confirm that they were not lost.

Listen to the report...

Listen to the report...

Listen to the report...

After three reports, there is a half-hour break.

This process is called "coffee break". At this time, free coffee is provided in the venue, which is somewhat similar to the inter-class activities in elementary school and high school.

Xu Qiu and Han Jiaying went to a nearby coffee supply point and happened to meet Feng Shengdong.

However, they just greeted each other, greeted each other with a cup of coffee, and then left separately. Because the meeting schedule was still relatively tight, there was only half an hour of rest time, and the next meeting was about to start again.

Before, Xu Qiu thought that participating in the conference and listening to reports was a mental job, but now it seems that it is more like a physical job.

Listen to the report...

Listen to the report...

Listen to the report...

After finishing the six reports in the morning, Xu Qiu, Han Jiaying and Wu Feifei gathered to discuss the important issue of what to have for lunch.

After some deliberation, it was finally decided to have pizza for lunch.

They did not choose to chain to the domestic "Pizza Hut" (B Hut), but chose another "Downtown Pizza Lounge".

When he came to the store, Xu Qiu found that there were quite a lot of people inside, and the store was relatively large. There were about 30 tables, all of which were already full. Some people were standing and eating while holding pizza boxes.

It seems that pizza is still relatively popular in the beautiful country.

Of course, it may be more popular with the participants.

After all, during the MRS conference, the structure of the main consumer group around the venue may no longer be the locals of Phoenix, a beautiful country.

The smallest pizza in the store is 6 inches. If it is sold alone, the cheapest price is 6.99 dollars, and the price will vary with different tastes.

If the size increases to 9 inches, the price will increase by $3 to $9.99;

Further increase to 12 inches, the price increases again by 3 US dollars to 13.99 US dollars;

For 15 inches, the price continues to rise to $16.99,

Proportional to price, a 12-inch pizza costs about the same as two 6-inch pizzas, even though the former is four times the size.

This is probably the characteristic of the beautiful country. The more you buy, the greater the discount.

Just like Coke, families in the beautiful country rarely buy a bottle of Coke at a time, and usually buy a dozen at a time, because it can have a discount close to 50%.

In addition to pizza, there are also beverages such as coffee and cola sold here.

However, the price is more expensive than that of the donut shop yesterday, and the cheapest one is $1.99, but with a set meal, the price can be reduced by $1.

In the end, the three ordered three 9-inch pizza packages with different flavors, the flavors were Pepperoni (sausage), Mushroom (mushroom), and Mozzarella (Margherita), and added two cups of coffee and a cup of Coke. The total consumption was 41.77 beautiful knife.

The difference between the three pizzas is mainly that the toppings are different. The common ingredients are cheese, cherry tomatoes, tomato sauce, basil leaves, sausage pizza has sausage, mushroom pizza has mushrooms, and Margherita has nothing, but it is used Cheese seems to be different from the first two.

The taste of the pizzas is very good, but the portions are a bit big. Three people ate three pizzas, and in the end they were very stuffed, and there were still six quarters left to eat.

PS: Ask for a monthly pass, now the monthly pass is 790, just ask for a thousand.
