Time Travel: 2014

Eve Carley seemed to know that would be the case.

Eve Carly said that she will recently come to Shuimu University in China with a delegation from MIT for an academic visit.

She hopes to have the opportunity to meet Lin Hui during her academic visit to China.

She had some doubts and hoped to be answered by Lin Hui face to face.

Well, are high-end academic exchanges so simple and direct?

Lin Hui remembered that this Eve Kali's signature was "Dr. Eve Kali".

Is it okay to explain a doctor’s doubts in person?

But it's nothing to be ashamed of.

If you ask Lin Hui to explain advanced mathematics questions to others, Lin Hui may not be able to explain them clearly.

But let Lin Hui tell others about generative summary algorithms.

Even with the advent of technology, Lin Hui could still tell his face that he was ugly.

There is no way, as the saying goes, there is a sequence of learning, and there is a specialization in the art.

The first step is the guide.

And it’s not just about generative summary algorithms, a small category of natural language processing that Lin Hui is very good at.

Lin Hui has also been involved in some other categories of natural language processing.

In addition, Lin Hui is also true in many fields related to AI.

In the past few years of working, Lin Hui except for the initial rotation.

Most of the rest of the time is spent dealing with various algorithms (mainly related to AI).

Every day is boring reading papers, modifying models, adjusting data, and typing code.

Now, seven years ago, these once bitter days have turned out to be blessings.

Anyway, in this time and space, no one should know this better than Lin Hui.

Judging from the itinerary introduced by Eve Carly.

This group of people from MIT will fly to the Imperial Capital on the afternoon of the 22nd.

Coming in such a hurry, Lin Hui even suspected that this group of people came just for him.

This can't help but surprise Lin Hui.

Lin Hui knew that his work on generative summarization algorithms would be noticed by the research team in natural language processing.

But I didn’t expect Waiguo’s team to respond so quickly.

But that's not a bad thing.

Timely contact with some academic teams can accelerate Lin Hui's academic growth and reputation.

Lin Hui certainly knew that these crooked teams coveted advanced technology.

But Lin Hui also had an agenda.

Lin Hui hopes to gain a greater say in academic matters as soon as possible.

Once you have the right to speak, you can do many things at your fingertips.

Otherwise, even if you have an insight into the future direction, it will be difficult to become an industry leader.

Imagine how funny it would be for a student who has just graduated from high school to jump up and say that so-and-so is the cutting-edge direction.

Anyway, Lin Hui felt that he must gain the right to speak academically as soon as possible.

If it really doesn't work, you can spend money on an honorary doctorate.

Anyway, Lin Hui is basically not short of money now.

But compared to a real degree, this is just a poor choice.

After reaching a higher status in the future.

Honorary doctorates and the like are easily criticized.

…

The Waiguo people's academic visiting team will arrive in the Imperial Capital tomorrow afternoon.

Doesn't this mean that if Lin Hui agrees to meet Eve Carly, the two of them can meet in a week at most?

However, Lin Hui did not object to Eve Carly's request to meet.

Judging from the content of the email sent by Eve Carly.

Almost the entire email is devoted to academic issues.

Anyway, Lin Hui felt that this person should be a pure person.

Lin Hui likes to deal with pure people.

Moreover, Lin Hui also hopes to get some news from Eve Carly.

After all, not all scientific researchers publish their academic results in the form of papers.

If Lin Hui doesn't obtain some inside information through various means.

It will be funny if you accidentally bump into someone else's car when doing transportation knowledge in the future.

In addition to begging to meet Lin Hui.

In the email, Eve Carly also invited Lin Hui to study at MIT.

As if she was afraid that Lin Hui would not believe her sincerity, she also attached an invitation letter to the email.

Lin Hui looked at the attachment and found that there were actually two invitation letters.

One was an invitation to enter MIT to study as an undergraduate in the computer science department.

Another one actually invited him to study for a master's degree in computer science at MIT.

Could it be that he was invited to study for a bachelor's degree and a master's degree together?

No, if that's the case, it seems that an invitation letter is enough.

Lin Hui thought for a while before he figured it out.

It turns out that these crooked people haven't figured out whether they are undergraduates or high school students.

So I simply sent two invitation letters directly.

Uh, are you so thoughtful?

To be honest, Lin Hui was very excited when faced with these two invitations.

Let’s not talk about a master’s degree from MIT.

Just the invitation to enroll as an undergraduate at MIT was tempting.

You know, if international students apply for the MIT undergraduate computer science major, they need to get a score of 1550 or above on the SAT test.

The total score for the SAT is only 1600.

Calculated only by scoring rate.

Getting a score of 1550+ on the SAT is almost the same as getting a score of 726.5 or more on the domestic college entrance examination.

The most important thing is if you want to get admission to a top international school like MIT.

In addition to getting high scores, you must also have other outstanding strengths.

For example, winning rankings in international competitions such as IMO, or being outstanding in sports, etc.

In short, the qualification for admission to MIT, which others seemed to require a lot of effort to obtain, was now in front of Lin Hui.

This is certainly tempting.

Despite this, Lin Hui was not blinded by this temptation.

Although MIT is good, there is one biggest problem before him:

——Language barrier.

Although Lin Hui’s English expression is still passable, his English listening skills are also acceptable.

But the language barrier is still a big problem.

After going abroad, Waiguo's pronunciation is not everyone's standard listening accent.

Isn’t it embarrassing not to be able to understand what others are saying?

In addition to language barriers, you will also face new environments.

Although Lin Hui has a lot of information in his mind.

But Lin Hui almost turned a blind eye to the local information in country m.

Just for the computer science major at MIT.

Although Go Waiguo is still learning computers.

However, there are many differences between Waiguo's computer curriculum and domestic undergraduate accounting majors.

Lin Hui was not sure that he could still overcome all obstacles in Waiguo.

As for skipping undergraduate studies and going directly to graduate school?

It would be terrible if you accidentally encounter a shady boss.

Lin Hui did not want to be an academic mole in the past.

I have to say, this is a really troubling question.

Fortunately, the invitation letter sent by MIT stated that you should respond before the end of July.

Lin Hui does not need to respond to this invitation immediately.

Maybe wait until the time comes to contact Eve Carly.

Lin Hui can better understand where he will go from now on.

…

Finished replying to the email from Eve Carly.

Lin Hui stopped replying to the email.

After casually watching TV for a while.

Lin Hui went to sleep.
