intellectual norms

The heart that was about to jump out of Xia Xiaoli's chest fell back to its original place. From the moment Qiao Yu walked out calmly, he seemed to have found a support.

All the panic was gone. He knew that Qiao Yu might not be able to see him on stage, but he felt that calm eyes were for himself.

Qiao Yu silently resolved the jubilation with his extreme rationality and calmness.

He didn't start to speak until it was completely quiet. Lin Zhihua was still standing beside him. Qiao Yu bowed politely to him first, and said with a friendly smile, "Thank you, Professor Lin, for giving me such a great honor."

The tone was mild, compared with Lin Zhihua's enthusiastic emotions, he seemed so indifferent and distant, "honor", these two words immediately returned the relationship between the two to the point of friendship between gentlemen.

Then he turned his body towards the audience, retracted his whole frosty posture, like a melting glacier, and returned to his face with a relaxed and indifferent look, saying: "Professor Lin and I have been classmates and colleagues for many years. Professor Lin's professional achievements Everyone has seen it, and now he attributes all the reasons to me, and he is really ashamed."

"It's not so much because of me that Professor Lin began to understand and change his understanding of oriental culture and art, but rather because his blood as a Chinese is naturally awakening, and it is the charm of oriental culture that makes him more and more immersed in it. Among them, in between, I am at best an introduction."

"What I said may be called 'self-cultivation of an introduction'." Qiao Yu became more relaxed, returning to his previous speech style, and there was a burst of friendly laughter from the audience, but it was different from the inflammatory Boiling is very different.

Xia Xiaoli also laughed, he knew that Qiao Yu had completely controlled the scene.

Qiao Yu gestured to Cheng Yu, who was in charge of playing the projection on the side of the stage, and the projection behind him showed the topic of his speech today.

It is a purely technical theme, and the name carries the unique rigor of engineering. As soon as this cover picture came out, the experts and students in the audience were automatically brought into a calm and rational academic atmosphere.

At this time, he bowed slightly to Lin Zhihua who was on the side, meaning "I'm going to start the speech right away, you can step down now".

Lin Zhihua bowed politely to the audience and walked backstage.

Xia Xiaoli let out a sigh of relief.

Qiao Yu's speech today chose the field he is best at, not talking about feelings or ideals, and simply convincing people with technology.

The best technology is his ability to live and work. In today's speech, he discussed the infinite possibilities of future development based on the most cutting-edge bridge construction technology.

The research and development of new materials, the introduction of artificial intelligence, the breakthrough of the limit span... The experts in the audience concentrated their attention, and the students even started to take notes. This is a rare master class.

Xia Xiaoli can't understand the explanations and discussions on the technical level, but he likes this kind of industry characteristics that contain constant changes and infinite possibilities in the rigor. This is a very down-to-earth major, but it does not forget the Looking at the stars.

He felt that listening to Qiao Yu talk about these "boring" technical theories was more exciting than listening to Lin Zhihua talking about oriental aesthetics just now. Projected pictures flashed by, and numerical values ​​and professional terms that he couldn't understand, Xia Xiaoli felt that Qiao Yu's Every gesture opened up a corner of the future world for him.

As long as she is with Qiao Yu, with these like-minded companions at the scene, Xia Xiaoli is very, very looking forward to her future.

After Qiao Yu's speech was over, the joint academic exchange speech forum between the two universities came to an end. The audience applauded enthusiastically. The host of the TV station came to the stage. On the last day of today, he generously gave the students an hour to talk with all the students. Time for expert interaction.

Because of Qiao Yu's last speech, the students were still immersed in a professional academic atmosphere, and the questions they asked were all professional questions, which were extremely weighty. Even the interaction between teachers and students was the best since the forum started. The professors and scholars of Columbia University praised the professional thinking of Hongda University students.

Finally, in Zhou Yishen's short speech and a group photo of all experts, this academic exchange forum came to a complete conclusion.

But the entire joint academic activity between the two schools is not over yet. Xia Xiaoli has read the itinerary long ago, and knows that there will be five days of research and visits in various places, and finally Qiao Yu and Lin Zhihua will participate in the recording of "Tiangong Kaiwu".

This part is a relaxing itinerary for the members of both parties. Visitors come from afar, so they naturally want to see the representative works in the field of construction in China. The previous exhibitions and academic lectures are all theoretical, and each designer is more interested I love seeing things built in person.

There was a celebration banquet after the speech forum that day, and high-ranking officials from the provincial department came. Naturally, Qiao Yu had to stay at the banquet, and Xia Xiaoli could only go back by herself.

He didn't go home, but went to school. There was evening self-study on Sunday night, but the day students didn't make it mandatory. Xia Xiaoli was so emotional at this moment that she felt that she couldn't stay alone.

When I entered the classroom, the evening self-study hadn't started yet, the familiar scene of papers flying like snowflakes, and the results of the weekly exam were being issued, when Jian Rong saw him in a pile of papers, he said, "Mr. Qiao is too good."

Ok?

Jian Rong gestured, took out his phone without brazenly, and said, "I watched the live broadcast this afternoon, and I have to say, I was shocked again."

"You should be there, how about it? Wouldn't it be better to feel the scene?" Jian Rong poked his arm and asked him.

Xia Xiaoli nodded vigorously. He felt that Jian Rong's feelings might actually be stronger. Although he was also emotional, after all, after being close to Qiao Yu for so long, he had already felt how powerful this person is. .

It's really not Versailles, but who told him to be with Versailles every day.

It's just that no matter how prepared he is, Qiao Yu can always break his expectations and surprise him.

"Speaking of which, I really envy you, being able to get so close to Teacher Qiao." Jian Rong said, unconsciously, Qiao Yu also became his idol.

"Well, I think I'm lucky too."

"You bastard, fools are blessed with fools."

Xia Xiaoli smiled, right? Everyone said he was stupid, but Brother Qiao didn't dislike him.

"The final exam is coming soon. The school said that there will be a general mobilization next week, and everyone will be asked to write down their ideal exam goals. Xia Xiaoli, I asked you several times and you didn't say where you want to take the exam. Now I don't think you need to ask. , It's too obvious, you want to take the Hongda Construction Engineering exam, don't you?" Jian Rong asked him.

Xia Xiaoli nodded slightly, and wanted to take the exam, but until now, his grades were not safe, and he was stuck when he entered the top 80s. The competition in the attached middle school was fierce, and the higher the ranking, the harder it was to break through.

Everyone is a top student, and everyone is working hard. After the midterm exam, Xia Xiaoli rushed to the 69th place this time in the monthly and weekly exams.

Jian Rong paused, and then said: "Xia Xiaoli, I know you have a goal, since you met Teacher Qiao, you have a goal, don't you?"

Xia Xiaoli opened her mouth, but said nothing, Jian Rong knew herself too well, maybe he had already seen it, but she just kept silent.

"It's good, I'm very envious. From the beginning to the end, the goal remains the same, and there are no distractions. Maybe I'm not this kind of person, but I really envy this." Passionate and angry: "I think you can do it, whether it's the college entrance examination or a male god...you can do it, come on."

Xia Xiaoli blushed a little after being punctured: ... I thank you, can you shut up?

Qiao Yu came home very late, and many officials from the Provincial Department came to the celebration banquet. This academic exchange event was held very successfully. The leaders of the Provincial Department highly praised Zhou Yishen, and Zhou Yishen focused on pushing Qiao Yu out. Let the provincial leaders who are not familiar with him have a deep impression on him.

In the past, Qiao Yu didn't feel tired at the construction site all night long, but after socializing this evening, he really felt tired. Fortunately, there was a long-sleeved and good at dancing Chen Ke who helped him a lot. This was the first time he came back to China Facing the situation formally, and also knowing that if he really succeeds as the dean in the future, these administrative tasks will be indispensable. He began to doubt whether he is suitable for these things. Chen Ke seems to be more suitable than him.

He is not an ambitious man, he looks down on power and money, and even has some paranoid idealistic tendencies. The current fame and money are just the additional effects of his professional focus and paranoia.

Arriving home in the early hours of the morning, people with a good capacity for alcohol also felt a little drunk. They saw a familiar note on the door, which was the report card that Xia Xiaoli had just sent, as well as a hand-painted smiley face.

Qiao Yu took it off and rubbed his temples to see the handwriting on it. It was ten rank higher than last time. This was the third report card he received, and Qiao Yu kept every one of them.

This is a gift from the kitten to him.

There was silence in the corridor, and the door of the opposite apartment was closed. Qiao Yu walked softly to the opposite door, resting her forehead against the door.

He didn't know what he was doing, what he was thinking, it seemed that he just wanted to stand leaning against him for a while.

However, today the kitten in the room didn't wake up in the middle of the night, and then opened the door and said sleepily, "Brother Qiao, you are back." Never knocked down.

After a while, I staggered back to the door of my house, pressed the password several times to get it right, entered the room and didn't even have time to take a shower, and fell asleep lying on the bed with my clothes closed.

When he woke up the next day, the sky was bright, and he didn't hear Xia Xiaoli's voice going out to school, but he still held last night's report card in his hand.

The note screeched, and Qiao Yu squinted to look at the line of numbers again, and put it into the first drawer of the bedside table.

He has no class today, and the class time for the next week has been adjusted because he has to go out to accompany him on a visit.

I got up, took a shower, and made something to eat. It was almost noon. The bus for the inspection was booked at [-]:[-] pm, and it departed directly from the hotel where the Columbia delegation stayed.

He took a look in the work group. Those people should still be hungover, and the group was very quiet.

He is the leader of the group, so at the risk of being complained by the group, he sent a reminder of today's itinerary to the group, then Aite everyone, and then sent a separate message to Chen Ke, asking him to go to the design institute in advance Meet up and sort out the things to be arranged in the college and the work on the way to the inspection.

He will be outside for about five or six days. Qiao Yu simply packs up his belongings. It is the middle of winter, so he saves his suit and leather shoes. A thick coat can be used for all formal occasions. He only needs to bring a change of clothes inside. The nature of work makes business trips a common occurrence, and packing things is handy.

But before going out, he stood at the door and paused, thought for a while, then turned around and went back to the house, found a card, drew a fat and simple raccoon cat on it with a marker, and drew another A big hand was rubbing the cat's head, and then wrote: "Go and go back."

Qiao Yu pasted the card on Xia Xiaoli's door. This was the first time he communicated with him in Xia Xiaoli's way.

After doing this, I felt that it was appropriate, and I closed the door and left with my luggage.

When Qiao Yu arrived at the Design Institute, he found that Zhou Yishen was also there. This time, Zhou Yishen put Qiao Yu at the forefront of the entire academic forum, giving him the most opportunities to show up. In addition to his performance at the banquet last night, it was clear that it was for the school leaders and The leaders of the provincial department expressed their hearts that this is his promising successor.

Qiao Yu knew it well, but Zhou Yishen didn't tell him these things publicly, and he couldn't express his thanks verbally, that would be too official. Zhou Yishen saw him and told him to go to the office.

"Will that Professor Lin cause trouble to you?" Zhou Yishen asked him gently.

In fact, Qiao Yu felt a little ashamed. Lin Zhihua made such a sudden speech yesterday. It was still being broadcast live at the time. Lin Zhihua's last sentence was intercepted by someone alone, and it was already uploaded on the Internet overnight.

Qiao Yu is a school teacher, and this kind of spread has a very bad influence on him. To put it bluntly, if people with ulterior motives lead the rhythm, it will also affect the reputation of the entire Hongda Construction Engineering, so he said: "Yes. I personally won't cause trouble, but I'm afraid that what he said yesterday will have an impact on the reputation of the school and the courtyard, and I didn't handle it well."

Zhou Yishen waved his hand: "It's none of your business. At the celebration banquet last night, after you left, the leader of the provincial department asked a few words casually. I said that Professor Lin is a foreigner in his heart, and Westerners are more exaggerated in their speech and actions. Free and easy, he and Mr. Qiao were young classmates, and they were speaking on the same stage at this time. When he was excited and full of emotions, it was natural to describe it that way. The word in his mouth did not mean what we understood."

I didn't know there was such a show at the banquet last night, Qiao Yu was very grateful, "Thank you Zhou Yuan."

"Don't be polite to me. Professor Lin didn't even say hello, and he suddenly made things difficult for you. This matter has made me suffocated. I must find a way to get you out. You don't have to worry about the leaders in the school and the hall. , They very much agreed with my statement, Deputy Director Xu said on the spot that they would deal with the negative news on the Internet, and not allow us to be wronged."

So that's the case, Qiao Yu thought, no wonder the intercepted video could no longer be found after swiping through various platforms today.

Zhou Yishen told him: "However, you should pay attention to this inspection. The local leaders in various places are also with you. If Professor Lin does anything out of the ordinary, you have to be careful."

"Okay, I understand, things like this won't happen again."

When he came out of the office, after Qiao Yu and Chen Ke handed over the affairs of the college, seeing that there was still more than an hour before departure, he thought that some things had to be resolved.
