Chapter 290 This Is for Fairness!

In the past two days, Chen Yushan has been a little panicked.

Since the last time the chart was handed in, she has not received any new tasks from the instructor.

Although this kind of long-lost relaxation was not bad, but it was too relaxed and made her a little worried, wondering if she had offended Professor Passy somewhere.

Compared with tutors, students are definitely disadvantaged groups. If you accidentally offend your mentor, let alone whether you can live comfortably in the past two years, whether you can graduate smoothly after two years is a problem.

In particular, Professor Passy, ​​who was sitting in the office, frequently cast attention on her, which made her feel a little nervous.

Just when Chen Yushan was hesitating whether she should take the initiative to go over and ask, Ms. Passy finally broke the silence while looking at her for the Nth time.

"I heard that the Chinese New Year is on the 28th?"

This is……

Talking to yourself?

"It's different every year, but this year it is... What's wrong?" While answering the boss's question, Chen Yushan murmured in her heart.

Professor Michel Passy looked at her blankly.

However, at this moment, the crow's feet in the corners of her eyes suddenly burst into a caring smile.

Because the smile was too frightening, it almost didn't startle Chen Yushan.

Fortunately, she didn't really jump up, or she would really offend this menopausal old woman.

Professor Passy paused for a moment, his eyes drifted to the calendar on the desk, and he continued: "These days, you have worked hard. There are still two weeks until the Spring Festival. From today until the Lantern Festival in Huaguo, You can take a good rest."

Chen Yushan: "...?"

Could it be...

Want to give yourself a vacation? !

Happiness came so suddenly that Chen Yushan wondered if she heard it wrong.

She just called home yesterday, and she may not be able to go back to celebrate the New Year this year.

Several master students and doctoral students who were also sitting in the office were all looking at her with envious eyes.

Professor Passy has never talked to his students in this tone. For this strict woman, her students are her employees, and they are also cheap labor with a monthly salary of 300 US dollars.

Not to mention caring, the younger and more beautiful the student is, the more indifferent and harsh her attitude will be.

But now...

The sun is literally out in the west!

Pausing for a moment, the smile on Professor Michelle Passy's face became more and more heart-warming: "By the way, there is one more thing. I have reconsidered the paper on the research report on the development of the retail industry in India. You Your work played a big role in that paper, and a position of fourth author cannot reflect your contribution, so I decided to put you in the position of first author.”

Before recovering from the previous shock, Chen Yushan stared blankly at the professor, subconsciously said: "But professor, I just helped to collect documents and drawings..."

"Just?" Looking at her seriously, Michelle Passy's expression was unprecedentedly serious: "Miss Chen, I must tell you. For a thesis, the auxiliary work of collecting documents and drawing, and the paper's Writing is just as important, and this is definitely not something that can be summed up in a single 'just'. This is to be fair, and in this matter, I will stick to my decision to put you in the same position."

Chen Yushan: "???"

...

On the third weekend after New Year's Day, Lu Zhou took a flight to the west coast.

I don’t know if it’s because he saw his student’s name on the list of academic conference submissions. Mr. Francis, the president of the American Mathematical Society, sent him an invitation letter, eagerly inviting him to attend the academic conference held at Berkeley.

Originally, in Lu Zhou's itinerary plan, he did not plan to attend this academic conference.

However, Mr. Francis was too enthusiastic. Thinking that he would go to San Francisco anyway, Lu Zhou accepted his invitation and agreed to go there for a while. By the way, he also took a look at what his little apprentice's report would do. How about it.

After all, it was the first report meeting in her life, and Lu Zhou was still a little worried.

After the plane landed at San Francisco International Airport, it was Professor Tao Terence who drove over to pick him up.

Since the academic conference last year, the relationship between the two has been good.

Due to the wide scope of Professor Tao's research, he occasionally encounters problems in number theory or functional analysis that he can't figure out, so the two will discuss on msn. After learning that Lu Zhou was going to attend the UC Berkeley academic conference, Professor Tao immediately asked about his flight and said that he could come to pick him up.

Sitting in the car, Professor Tao asked with great interest: "I heard that you have been studying the Kadotani Conjecture recently?"

Lu Zhou smiled and replied: "Yes, you are also interested?"

"It's more than just an interest. I tried to study it a long time ago, but unfortunately I couldn't succeed. My intuition told me that this is a complex analysis problem. But after digging deeper, I found that it is not only an analysis problem, but even related to the Langlands program. There was a connection," said Terence Tao, who was driving, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "But there should be no problem with your ability, and now you have the most say in the direction of additive number theory. If even you can't solve this problem problem, I think this problem can really only be left to mathematicians two centuries later to solve."

Tao Zhexuan's statement is exaggerated, but it is not exaggerated. There are not many people in the direction of additive number theory. Among them, the more typical propositions are headed by Goldbach's conjecture and Waring's problem.

Now the Goldbach conjecture has become the Goldbach-Lu theorem. Unless someone has made outstanding contributions on the Waring problem, at present, among the new generation of mathematicians, no one can beat Lu in this field. Boat.

Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly, and explained: "You are exaggerating...and in fact, I am not doing this project, mainly my students are in charge. I just provide them with some directional suggestions , As for whether it will be able to achieve results in the end, I can’t say for sure.”

"Well, I thought you were studying this subject." Tao Zhexuan had a slightly regretful expression.

If Lu Zhou took the shot himself, he can look forward to it.

But now it seems that he doesn't have to expect too much.

...

The hotel arranged by the American Mathematical Society for this academic conference is near the Berkeley campus. As a scholar invited to participate in this conference, Mr. Francis has already reserved a room for Lu Zhou, and he can check in after registering at the counter.

After sending Lu Zhou to the door of the hotel, Professor Tao said goodbye to him temporarily after leaving a sentence of "go to my house when you have time" because he still has a class to attend.

After putting the luggage in the place where he was staying, Lu Zhou didn't stay in the hotel any longer, but turned around and went downstairs to call a taxi.

That Professor Sarot's research institute is just south of the San Francisco Bay Area, not too far from here, and he intends to resolve this matter as soon as possible.

While sitting in the taxi, Lu Zhou and Wulf made a phone call and agreed to meet at the entrance of the institute.

Originally, he thought that he would probably get there first.

As a result, when he arrived at the destination, Woolf was already waiting at the door.

Xiang Lu Zhou greeted him, and after Wulf greeted him, he said, "I didn't expect you to come here today. If you had told me a day earlier, I would have picked you up at the airport."

Lu Zhou said succinctly: "Because something happened suddenly, I temporarily changed the itinerary. Let's not talk about this, let's deal with this matter quickly."

Without stopping at the door, Lu Zhou asked Wulf to lead the way and walked towards the interior of the research institute.

Compared with those large research institutions, this private research institute is undoubtedly much smaller, only three floors in size, the location is too remote, and the nearby traffic is not very convenient.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

At least as far as the equipment on the list is concerned, this research institute has the conditions to complete the experiments that Lu Zhou needs to do.

Arriving at the office on the third floor, Lu Zhou was about to say hello to the person in charge here, and then he glanced at Professor Sarot sitting on the sofa.

The moment they met their gazes, the two were stunned at the same time.

Professor Sarot didn't expect that the boss who bought his research team turned out to be Lu Zhou, and after realizing this, he was pleasantly surprised and surprised at the moment.

And Lu Zhou didn't expect that this Professor Sarot turned out to be the "Lithium Air Boss" he met at the MRS conference. He just thought this name was a bit familiar...

Gathering his mind, Lu Zhou confirmed that he was not mistaken.

Then……

Without hesitation, he turned and left.

However, before Lu Zhou could take two steps, Professor Sarot's indistinct "cries of wolves and howls of ghosts" came from behind him.

"Wait! Wait a minute! Eight million, oh no, five million for you! Please don't go!"
