Hammer of Technology

"Thank you boss! Then I'll go first!"

"roll!"

……

Seeing Yu Xingwei go out, Lu Changbin couldn't help laughing while sitting in his seat.

Leaving aside his knowledge, at least his disciple luck really has nothing to say.

Of course, to be admitted to his Ph. D., there must be some real talents. Coupled with this unnatural luck, as long as you don't die during your Ph. D., it is not a big problem to stay in school as an associate professor after graduation.

So let me introduce it to him, it's nothing.

It's just that Ningwei is here, what a pity, are young people these days even interested in dating?

But it's a pity that at that moment, it was an idea that came out of nowhere, and it's normal to be rejected.

The next moment, he smiled and picked up the phone.

"Hey, Lao He, how is the laboratory recently? Did you succeed in the selection of the results at your last meeting?"

"The selection hasn't started yet. Lu Changbin, why do you suddenly care about our project?"

"Nothing, just want to ask, the SODA conference will be held at the end of the month, will any of you attend this year?"

"No! What? Has someone in your lab submitted a conference paper?"

"I didn't vote, but a little guy's paper was spotted by a convener of the conference, and I hope to invite him to attend the conference and give a report. Hey, the child is young, and I want to attend a domestic conference again. I was thinking of you If there are also people who can participate in this conference, they can make a companion, this is all right, I can only find a way to find someone to accompany me in the laboratory..."

"Beep beep..."

------------

108 I can see your happiness, but you don’t understand mine

When Yu Xingwei returned to the laboratory, Ning Wei had already buried himself in sorting out the data of the turbulence algorithm.

This made Yu Xingwei feel a little ashamed.

These days he is still lax in the laboratory. Although he packs the data to the server on time according to the laboratory operation regulations every day, he has not done data analysis for several days.

It's the Chinese New Year, and the people on duty are still a little slack after all.

"Mr. Xiao Ning, let me do this kind of thing. You just rushed back, go and rest first." Yu Xingwei said immediately.

"It's okay, I haven't been back to the laboratory for a long time, but it feels kind to do this. If you are okay, tell me what this kind of academic conference is like? There are some things that need attention." Ning Wei didn't even look up. replied.

"This..."

Yu Xingwei was a little shy. He had never participated in this kind of top international academic conference. Fortunately, he had accompanied his tutor to some top domestic conferences during his graduate student period. Heard some things, so there would be nothing to talk about.

"Generally speaking, the first day of this kind of international academic conference will be arranged in a relatively large conference hall, and all participants will gather in this conference hall to listen to the speeches of special guests. I have never participated in SODA, but generally Speaking of guest reports, it should also be limited to about 45 minutes, 30 minutes for everyone to listen to what you have to say, and 15 minutes for people to ask questions. Generally, guests need to answer two or three questions. I feel like a graduate student At the end, the defense part is almost the same.”

"Because there are quite a lot of people on the first day, there will usually be a relatively grand dinner in the evening. This is the most important social occasion of the entire conference, and you may meet various star academic leaders. Wait until the second day , everyone discussed their areas of interest in their own small conference rooms. The conference organizer will send you a brochure, and you can go to which conference hall to participate in which topic you are interested in. After the meeting, everyone disbanded. That's probably it."

"By the way, when the invitation letter comes, you will have two choices when you go to the official website to register. One is oral, and the other is poster. You are invited to make a report. Don't make a mistake. Choose oral. By the way, the conference may still have to review manuscripts!" Yu Xingwei reminded.

He doesn't have much experience, so the few words he understands are finished.

"It's gone? It's that simple?" Ning Wei asked in a muffled voice.

"Wait, what's so simple? SODA is similar to STOC, and both belong to one of the world's most difficult computer algorithm academic conferences. Although you are a special guest, you may also encounter very tricky questions during the questioning session. If you can't explain Well, if it gets out, it will be ridiculed by academic leaders all over the world. You still have to prepare seriously." Yu Xingwei emphasized seriously.

There's no way, he and Ning Wei are completely bound together now, and it's a relationship where one prospers and the other loses. If there is anyone who doesn't want Ning Wei to have problems, it's probably him.

"Don't worry, I have experience in dealing with this kind of defense." Ning Wei stopped what he was doing, and glanced sideways at Yu Xingwei.

"What kind of experience do you have in this field without graduating from a bachelor's degree?" Yu Xingwei asked curiously.

Ning Wei showed a look of memories, and said leisurely: "It was last October, the first SCI article in my life was published on "Nature", and it was less than half an hour before a teacher who had influenced my life. I was called by our Dean Kong to the conference room above the administrative building of the number institute, and a dozen professors surrounded me to ask various questions, and the cross-examination took about three hours."

"And then?" Yu Xingwei, who heard this for the first time, continued to ask like a curious baby.

"Then? Then several professors either added me on WeChat in person or in person, told me their recent research directions, and then asked me if I was interested in following them directly. If I am interested, they will help me directly call Report the application quota." Ning Wei replied honestly.

"I..." Yu Xingwei suddenly wanted to slap his own mouth twice, his mouth is so cheap, why not ask this?

It's hard to guard against, and I was accidentally pretended to be by the undergraduate student in front of me.

But one thing to say, if you put yourself into it, it's quite comfortable.

Think about it, there is no need for exams for direct Ph. D., more than a dozen professors stand there with the signs of their respective research directions for him to choose, or wait in line one by one for him to interview the tutor, well, it's a pity that the protagonist is not him.

"Brother Yu, what's the matter with you? Can we still have a good chat?"

Yu Xingwei was suddenly depressed, but Ning Wei just felt baffled.

……

Although he will be hit from time to time, but there are more people in the laboratory, he still seems to be more popular, and the work is not tiring.In this way, before the two of them finished processing the data of these days, Lu Changbin called Ning Wei and notified that the invitation email had been sent to their mailboxes.

"I'll go, the efficiency is so high? I thought I would receive the invitation letter at least tomorrow." Yu Xingwei said a little excitedly.

He was very excited when he received the invitation letter for the first international top conference.

The hand that touched the mouse trembled a little.

"Yes, I used to think that Westerners are very inefficient, but it may also be our prejudice. As far as the review speed of several papers I have experienced, their efficiency is actually quite fast." Ning Wei is very natural He replied and opened the mailbox.

Hearing this, Yu Xingwei paused again, opened his mouth, and said "Survivor's Deviation", brewed in his mouth for a long time, and finally swallowed it back into his stomach.

Why some people are fast and some people are slow, he still has some idea in his heart.

Ning Wei's words reminded him of about a year and a half ago, when he was still in graduate school, he still remembered the paper that he and his boss had submitted to a journal in the first district. After about two months, it was returned directly depression at times.

However, before he swallowed the sentence of MMP with peace of mind, Ning Wei, who didn't notice the strangeness, suddenly asked again: "Hey, Brother Yu, it's not like you said you have to choose oral and poster here. It’s enough to fill in my name and some basic information, what’s going on here?”

Yu Xingwei froze for a moment, then stretched his head to take a look. The interface opened by Ning Wei was completely different from the interface he had applied for the conference before, and there were not so many complicated options.

"This one……"

Before the words were finished, the door of the laboratory was pushed open, and Lu Changbin walked in.

"They're all there, have you received the invitation emails? I'm afraid you are inexperienced, so let me help you check if you have filled in the information correctly." Lu Changbin said.

"Exactly, Director Lu, Brother Yu said that there should be an option for oral and poster here, but why is there no application interface for me?" Ning Wei pointed to the screen and asked.

Lu Changbin glanced at Yu Xingwei, and replied: "It's normal for Xiao Yu to make a mistake. This is an exclusive interface for you to invite guests. Generally, if you want to choose the option Xiao Yu mentioned, you need to sign up yourself, and the treatment for both is the same. It’s not the same. For example, if they choose oral, they need to submit a speech in advance to the conference for review, but you don’t have to. And if you sign up by yourself, you need to pay a certain fee, and you don’t have to.”

"Understood." Ning Wei nodded, this is easy to understand, VIP treatment.

"Ahem..." Yu Xingwei coughed twice in embarrassment.

"Oh, Xiao Yu, yours is the same, please pay attention not to fill in the wrong basic information."

In this way, under the guidance of Lu Changbin, the two of them completed the registration in less than 10 minutes, and the system automatically generated the invitation letter.

"By the way, Ning Wei, do you have a passport?" Lu Changbin then remembered the most important question.

"Yes, I was admitted to Jiangda University in the third year of high school. As a reward, my mother took me on a seven-day trip to Thailand and did one, but it was at home."

"As long as you have it, it will take less than two days for the courier to arrive, so let your family send it as soon as possible. You first fill out the DS-160 application form, and make an appointment for an interview. The electronic photo will be the one on the laboratory's uniform card, and the other one will be It can be used, and the embassy for visa application chooses the capital city..."

Just like that, Lu Changbin stayed in the laboratory for another ten minutes, supervised the two people to fill out the application form and submit it successfully, and then said: "Okay, it's almost done, let's go, I invite you to dinner today, as a welcome for Ning Wei. "

……

After a meal, it was already eight o'clock in the evening when I returned to school.

Under the strong request of the two, Lu Changbin's car drove to the school gate and put them down. Yu Xingwei ate too much instant noodles in the past two days. Back to the laboratory for a walk, just to digest.

As for Ning Wei, he simply didn't visit the campus during the winter vacation and wanted to experience it.

The campus during the winter vacation is indeed a little different from usual. The cold night makes the school look more solemn, especially when passing by the old buildings of the Republic of China, without the noise of people around, the heavy sense of history comes to the face.

"Mr. Xiao Ning, I feel that when you come back after a year, your whole temperament has changed."

Just as Ning Wei was feeling this rare experience with his heart, a faint word came from the people around him.

"Ok?"

Ning Wei touched his face subconsciously, turned his head to look at Yu Xingwei, and asked in doubt: "Is it so obvious? Has it become more handsome?"

Yu Xingwei blinked, thought for a while, and finally nodded very spinelessly.

"Maybe it's because I've become more confident recently, so that kind of temperament has come up. I think Brother Yu, you can also be more confident in the future." Ning Wei explained.

We are all men, and there is no need to be shy when we are praised.

Yu Xingwei was silent, he really wanted to be more confident, but where could he be confident?

"By the way, Brother Yu, have you ever been to America?"

"I have never been to the United States, but I have been to Lombardy in Italy. That was when I was in high school, and I went to participate in the International Informatics Olympiad." Yu Xingwei replied.

"Ah? Brother Yu, you still have such a glorious history? I remember that only four people can go to each country in the Informatics Olympiad, right? If you take any trophy, you can be sent to Qingbei, right?"

"Ahem...don't mention it. Back then, I had the worst grades and was the last one in the team. But in the end, I was recommended to the University of Science and Technology of China, and then to the University of Science and Technology. When I was about to graduate with a master's degree, my little boss recommended me to Lu Director, and then I took the exam for Director Lu's doctoral student. Then I knocked you down."

Under special circumstances, Yu Xingwei summarized his life experience and told Ning Wei.

Ning Wei nodded, feeling a little emotional in his heart, and said, "Hey, sure enough, this is the normal life of a top student! I, last year, wanted to keep a graduate degree in this school and get a master's degree, but I was disgusted, so I didn't like it. We can only wait for the hard exam this year."

Yu Xingwei was stunned for a moment, and then his heart began to bleed...

"Boss Ning!"

"what happened?"

"Can you teach me, how do you manage to make people feel so sincere in your tone even though you are in Versailles, and you can't find any flaws at all? I really want to learn!"

"Huh? What Versailles? What I said is the truth! Don't you know that I want to apply for graduate school, but the paper application materials I submitted were lost by the research teacher, and I missed the graduate school. I can only rely on this year's hard exam gone."

Yu Xingwei was speechless for a moment.

That's right...

Ning Wei is telling the truth...

So when a person is good enough, do people all over the world have to cooperate with him to act aggressively?

I don't know if Mr. Xue, who is completely famous in Jiangda University by throwing away materials, is doing well recently.

so envious……

Fortunately, the laboratory building has arrived.

"President Xiao Ning, see you tomorrow!" At this moment, Yu Xingwei just wanted to escape.

"Brother Yu, see you tomorrow!"

……

Lying on the bed, thinking about what happened today, Yu Xingwei tossed and couldn't fall asleep. Finally, he took out his mobile phone and found that the group of master and doctoral students in the laboratory was very lively at this time.

Oh, it's the third day of the Lunar New Year, and a group of people are having a great time paying New Year's greetings to each other.

Unable to watch it anymore, Yu Xingwei decided to get involved: "Hey, seeing that you all went home for the New Year holiday, I'm envious and jealous! I'm still in the lab because of the hard work."

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

After a brief silence, many pictures and videos showing food, movie tickets, and New Year's fireworks began to circulate in the WeChat group.

And with it a lot of comfort.

"Xiao Yu, it's okay. There are many kinds of instant noodles in the laboratory. I'm really hungry. We can share the food pictures with you."

"Yes, we can share all the warmth and excitement we are experiencing with you, and show you our river beach fireworks show on the first night of the first day of junior high school here!"

"Xiao Yu, don't cry. We can't feel the wonderful life alone in the laboratory. Going home during the New Year is actually spending time with parents every day, shopping, watching movies, and playing board games with friends. So boring."

"Yeah, you are so free during the Chinese New Year, how can you look like me? When you get home, you will have one after another drinking party, which will hurt your health."

"I'm envious of Brother Yu's good figure. Once I pass this year, I will gain at least three catties!"

……

This is probably the truest classmate friendship.

When you find your wound, you must be distressed to help you sprinkle salt and kill bacteria...

Not to mention that Yu Xingwei is a special guy, with two top publications and two works, how admirable his classmates are!

Yu Xingwei quietly watched these guys speak, post pictures, and post videos, all of them exhilarated.

Then I started to edit the text quietly.
