Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 160 Second Level Professor (111 211)

"House? Is it far from here?" Hearing Zhang Mingjie said that he would give away the house, Zhou Ming asked. Now he is used to living in this house and doesn't really want to move.

"In another community under construction, it hasn't been built yet, but you can choose first. They are all well-decorated, and they will probably be completed next year or next year. Once completed, you can move in directly." Zhang Mingjie road.

"You didn't read it carefully when you signed the contract, but we can't just let you get away with it. You've been working in the School of Numerology for a while, and you should have some understanding of the treatment of talents in our school.

When we hired you at the School of Biological Sciences this time, the salary offered by us is much more generous than that of the School of Science and Technology, and it is completely based on the level of leading talents. "

Zhang Mingjie said to Zhou Ming again.

"Leading talents?"

Zhou Ming was also a little surprised when Zhang Mingjie said that the Academy of Biological Sciences treated him according to the level of leading talents.

When Zhou Ming promised Zhang Mingjie to sign his name last time, he didn't pay much attention to the treatment given to him by the Academy of Life Sciences. He just checked to see if there were any loopholes in the contract.

After all, Zhou Ming is in the same school and enjoys two benefits, and these benefits are really nothing to him now.

As for the leading talents Zhang Mingjie mentioned, in the talent treatment of the University of Science and Technology, there are only three requirements for leading talents, and any one of these three requirements can be met.

The first is an academician of the two academies, the second is an outstanding talent of the "Ten Thousand Talents Program", and the third is a member of the Huaguo Academy of Social Sciences.

Needless to say, the academicians of the two academies refer naturally to the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering. There are not many academicians in the entire USTC, and some of the academicians are also dean-level figures, such as Li Mingzhi of the Academy of Sciences. The dean and the honorary dean of the Academy of Biological Sciences, Zhang Mingjie, are both academicians, but the executive dean of the Academy of Biological Sciences, Xue Tian, ​​is not yet an academician.

Regarding this point, Zhou Ming naturally did not meet this requirement.

The outstanding talents of the national "Ten Thousand Talents Program" are one of the sub-items of the National "Ten Thousand Talents Program". It is planned to support 100 talents, and a group of about 10 people will be selected every year.

The research direction of the "Ten Thousand Talents Program" outstanding talent applicants should be at the forefront of world science and technology, have achieved significant scientific research results, and have the potential to grow into world-class scientists.

The artificial intelligence that can accurately predict the protein structure with Zhou Ming as the main person in charge, as well as the proof of Goldbach's conjecture and the super soybean project that can produce 3000 jin per mu are all satisfied. "The research direction should be at the forefront of the world's science and technology. Major achievements, with the potential to grow into a world-class scientist" conditions.

It can even be said that Zhou Ming is already a world-class scientist, not what has the potential to grow into a world-class scientist.

However, Zhou Ming has not yet applied for this project, so although he meets the requirements, he is still not an outstanding talent of the "Ten Thousand Talents Program".

The member of the Huaguo Academy of Social Sciences is the highest academic title in the Huaguo Academy of Social Sciences. It is also an elite group in the field of Huaguo philosophy and social science research. It is a lifelong honor and its status is equivalent to that of an academician of the Huaguo Academy of Sciences.

If the academicians of the two academies belong to science and engineering, then the member of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences belongs to the liberal arts. The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences is the highest academic institution and comprehensive research center in the fields of philosophy and social sciences in China.

Zhou Ming is not very interested in philosophy. In the previous simulations, he has not studied philosophical issues. He only occasionally read some books related to philosophy, purely as a hobby to pass the time.

Therefore, although there is some philosophical knowledge in Zhou Ming's mind, it is just unsystematic and piecemeal knowledge.

Zhou Ming naturally does not meet the requirements for this third one.

And this was the reason why Zhou Ming was surprised. After all, his current conditions did not meet any of the requirements of the University of Science and Technology for leading talents.

"Professor Zhou, you are treating us too rigidly.

If a Nobel laureate does not meet the requirements of our University for leading talents, and we want to invite him to join our school, won't we list him as a leading talent?Could it be that he is not a leading talent?

Certainly not.

The reason why the school came up with this is because in most cases, those who are not satisfied with the academicians of the two academies, the outstanding talents of the "Ten Thousand Talents Program" and the members of the Huaguo Academy of Social Sciences are indeed not in line with our school's view of leading talents. Using this rule can also prevent some people from gossiping.

But we say you are a leading talent, does anyone dare to gossip?You are in the three major fields of biology, artificial intelligence, and mathematics. No matter which field you are in, it is in line with the meaning of a leading talent. It is worthy of the name to say that you are a leading talent. "

Zhang Mingjie explained to Zhou Ming that he felt that although Zhou Ming did not meet the requirements of the University of Science and Technology for leading talents, it was quite normal to treat him according to the leading talents.

This is indeed the case. If a school does not make it clear about the talents who are treated differently, it is indeed easy to arouse some people's opposition.

Because if there is no standard, in the eyes of some people, the so-and-so hired by your school is not considered a leader at all, and even treats him according to the salary of a leader. There must be some dirty deal in the middle.

In the eyes of some people, this so-and-so's strength can be regarded as a leading talent, but you only give him treatment for an outstanding talent. You are suppressing talents, and it must be that this so-and-so has offended something Interested, there must be something shady about it.

As the saying goes, there can be no rules without rules.

However, Zhou Ming's achievements are well known to all. Even if he does not meet the conditions listed by HKUST for leading talents, no one will gossip when they recruit him as a leading talent.

If someone dares to gossip about this, I am afraid that there is no need for HKUST to refute it, and this doubter will be sprayed to death by the majority of netizens and other scholars in the academic circle.

After listening to Zhang Mingjie's explanation, Zhou Ming nodded to show that it was true, and then he said to Zhang Mingjie: "That is to say, the new house arranged by the school will take one or two years to move in? Then the house I live in is here. Can you still live as usual in a year or two?"

"Yes, that's right. Professor Zhou, you can rest assured that we can give you no place to live. And you won't have to pay the water and electricity bills during this period, as before.

However, after the house over there is built and you move in, we will arrange the house here for other professors. "

When talking about this, Zhang Mingjie just smiled.

He continued to say to Zhou Ming: "If Professor Zhou's house over there is built in the past two years, the speed of results can be the same as in the recent year, and the importance is similar, I am afraid that after the completion of the house over there, After the house is built, no other professors will be allowed to live in your house."

"Oh?"

Seeing Zhang Mingjie saying this with a smile, Zhou Ming was a little puzzled. He didn't arrange for other professors to live. Could it be that the school is planning to give this house to himself?

Zhou Ming didn't have so many requirements for houses. He only needed one house that he could live in. Why did he need so many houses?
His parents and grandparents didn't move to live in the city, even if Shen Qingqiu came to Luzhou to live with him in the future, he wouldn't need two houses!

Besides, even if Zhou Ming's grandparents were persuaded by Zhou Ming later and moved to the city, Zhou Ming would definitely buy them a house instead of living in the house arranged by the school.

Moreover, Zhou Ming doesn't live on rent, or having multiple houses is really useless to him.

Seeing Zhou Ming's curious face, Zhang Mingjie smiled even more happily, and then said to Zhou Ming: "What I mean is, Professor Zhou, if you can compare with the past year in the next one or two years, The same, the third line is blooming, and if we continue to work hard, I guess the school will keep the house you live in as a future attraction."

Hearing Zhang Mingjie's explanation, Zhou Ming didn't know what to say for a moment.

Zhou Ming also understands that the former residences of some well-known scholars are listed as tourist attractions, which is quite normal.

But now Zhang Mingjie said to his face that the house he is still living in will be used as a scenic spot in the future, which still makes him feel a little weird.

The former residences of celebrities that are generally regarded as scenic spots are after the death of those celebrities. Zhou Ming is only in his 20s now. Judging from the age he lived in the simulated world, if there is no accident, he still has more than 100 years to go. live.

"There are a few more things I want to tell you. One is that the house allocated to you by the school has no other requirements, and you don't need to stay in the school for long. It can be transferred to you after it is completed." Zhang Mingjie said to Zhou Ming.

"There is also the matter of salary. Your annual salary during the salary and employment period is 200 million yuan. In addition to the house, there is also a one-off payment of 300 million yuan for settling down, and it will solve your future spouse's work and children's schooling issues.

As for doctoral supervisors and allocation of enrollment plan indicators, we have discussed this point last time, so I will not talk about it this time.

The college will soon post some of your information on the official website of the College of Biological Sciences, as well as your requirements for recruiting graduate students. We will talk about this in detail later.

As for the scientific research funding, your current position is a professor of the School of Mathematics and a professor of our School of Biological Sciences, so the funding is also calculated separately.

Your scientific research projects in the School of Biological Sciences are all natural sciences, and the natural science funding we give you is 3000 million yuan.

Of the 3000 million yuan, 2000 million yuan belongs to scientific research funds, and 1000 million yuan belongs to college construction funds.

These are all clearly stated in the contract that Professor Zhou signed before. "

Zhang Mingjie then explained to Zhou Ming about his salary and treatment, which is not unreasonable for a school like HKUST.

"Well, I've learned about this before. Let's talk about recruiting graduate students.

In fact, I don’t have any requirements for recruiting graduate students, any direction is fine, as for the number of recruits, it’s still the same as I told you last time, one doctoral student is enough, and two master’s students..."

When he got here, Zhou Ming suddenly stopped. He seemed to have thought of something. His expression changed, and he changed his mind. He said to Zhang Mingjie, "It's better to have more doctoral students, and more graduate students. It's best to come this year." You can participate in projects, and I happen to have several projects this year.”

When Zhang Mingjie heard that Zhou Ming had changed his mind, he didn't know what Zhou Ming suddenly thought of, so he didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, Zhou Ming's recruiting more graduate students would be a good thing for HKUST.

The reason why Zhou Ming temporarily changed his focus was because he had just thought that the experimental tasks required by the life simulator could be carried out at the same time. He recruited more doctoral and master's students and divided them into several groups.

Several master's students are paired with a doctoral student, and most of the experimental process is handed over to them. It is enough for Zhou Ming to participate in some main processes. In this way, Zhou Ming's life simulator tasks should be able to progress much faster.

As for whether this counts or not, Zhou Ming doesn't know this week. Anyway, it's okay to try it. If it doesn't count, just change the experiment and do it one by one.

"That's fine, but I think there is still something to write about the direction of admissions.

Didn't you say that there are several projects this year?
Since there are projects and they are prepared to participate, it is better to recruit graduate students in majors related to the projects.

After all, if your project is related to corn, and you recruited graduate students to study biomedicine or use biological methods to deal with water pollution and air pollution, it must not work, right? "

Zhang Mingjie persuaded Zhou Ming again that Zhou Ming said that any direction is fine, which naturally means that any major in biology is fine, and it is impossible to say that all majors are fine.

But even so, in today's technologically advanced era, each major is subdivided into many different majors. If you really want to follow Zhou Ming's words, you will be able to attract a research project that is different from his research project. It is a kind of torture for both the graduate student and Zhou Ming to hire a graduate student.

"Hmm...then synthetic biology, cell aging... let's recruit graduate students from these aspects. The biological projects I will carry out this year are almost all of these."

After listening to Zhang Mingjie's persuasion, Zhou Ming thought about it and said to him again.

When Zhang Mingjie and Zhou Ming were talking, Xue Tian, ​​who had been unable to get in the way, had already finished drinking the whole cup of hot water that Zhou Ming had just poured for them, and was about to pour himself a cup of hot water.

Just when Xue Tian got up and was about to pour hot water for himself, he caught a glimpse of a closed book on Zhou Ming's desk when he passed by the door of Zhou Ming's room.

When Zhou Ming came out to open the door for Xue Tian and Zhang Mingjie, he did not close the door to his room, so Xue Tian could see the book on the desk in Zhou Ming's room.

"Huh?" After seeing the book, Xue Tian had a hint of surprise on his face, and let out a light eh. He walked closer unknowingly, and finally saw the cover of the book clearly.

"Classical Electrodynamics by John David Jackson? Second edition."

After seeing the cover of the book on the desk in Zhou Ming's room, Xue Tian gently read the title written on the cover of the book and the author of the book.

When Xue Tian walked back to Zhou Ming's side, Zhou Ming was still talking to Zhang Mingjie. After Zhang Mingjie finished speaking, he said to the proof: "Professor Zhou, when I was about to pour water, I took a look at your room just now. When I came to a physics book, I took a closer look out of curiosity and found that it was "Classical Electrodynamics" by John David Jackson.

Is Professor Zhou doing research on physics recently? "

Because Xue Tian and Zhang Mingjie did not participate in Zhou Ming's academic report on the proof of Goldbach's conjecture held at HKUST on February 2, and they did not see Zhou Ming and a group of bigwigs in various fields of mathematics They communicated with each other, so they didn't know that Zhou Ming already had a certain understanding of mathematical physics, and even pure physics.

Therefore, after hearing what Xue Tian said, Zhang Mingjie also looked at Zhou Ming curiously, and asked Zhou Ming in the same way: "Professor Zhou is preparing to enter a new field of research?"

If it was Li Mingzhi who read the "Classical Electrodynamics", he must not be as surprised as Zhang Mingjie and Xue Tian. There is a lot of understanding in this aspect, but it is relatively clear.

"Well, yes, this book is almost finished." Zhou Ming explained.

Of those fifty books, some Zhou Ming prepared electronic versions, and some prepared paper versions. Fortunately, he put all the other paper versions in the bookcase, and Xue Tian didn’t see them. If he saw them all Now, it will definitely be more surprising than now.

"Actually, I have always been more interested in physics, but recently I have read more books on physics." Zhou Ming explained again.

Zhang Mingjie and Xue Tian came here today to inform Zhou Ming of some news, and now they have said almost everything they need to say, so they left here without chatting with Zhou Ming for a long time.

As for Zhou Ming reading physics books, he is still interested in physics. Perhaps it is because Zhou Ming has already crossed the three major majors of biology, artificial intelligence and mathematics. One more will mean that the number three becomes four. After Tian was surprised for a moment, he didn't have much other reactions.

To be honest, even if Zhou Ming really achieved something in physics research in the next two years, Zhang Mingjie and Xue Tian should be surprised.

But if they think it's impossible, then they definitely won't have such an idea. When this kind of thing happens to other people, they may think it's impossible at first, but it seems that there is nothing wrong with it happening to Zhou Ming. possible?

After sending Zhang Mingjie and Xue Tian to the door and watching them leave, Zhou Ming closed the door.

Looking at the time, Zhou Ming realized that it was almost time for lunch, so he rested for a while, swiped his phone, and sent Shen Qingqiu a message.

After lunch, Zhou Ming continued to read.

Time flies, and one afternoon has passed.

More than ten days into the night, the "Classic Electrodynamics" that was left was finally solved by Zhou Ming.

Opening the interface of the life simulator, Zhou Ming was very happy when he saw that the task progress of the book had also jumped to 2/50.

Zhang Mingjie and the others were quite efficient. The next morning after they left Zhou Ming, the official website of the School of Biological Sciences of HKUST announced that Zhou Ming had become their new professor.

In addition to the announcement that Zhou Ming became a professor of the School of Biological Sciences of the University of Science and Technology, Zhou Ming's information was also added to the faculty information on the official website of the Department of Biology and Medicine of the University of Science and Technology, and Zhou Ming's required majors were also stated as Zhou Ming said yesterday.

About Zhou Ming becoming a professor of the Department of Biomedical Sciences of the University of Science and Technology, and even becoming a second-level professor, this matter was quickly posted on the Internet by a large number of netizens, and it aroused some discussions again for a while.

However, because Zhou Ming's previous hot searches were much bigger than this one, the popularity of this matter was not very high.

Because the students who are most concerned about this matter are those students majoring in biology, so after Zhou Ming's information was posted on the official website, and it was confirmed that he was already a professor of the Department of Biology and Medicine of HKUST and recruited graduate students, Zhou Ming's e-mail address was deleted on the same day. Received emails from graduate students who wanted to be him.

In fact, Zhou Ming's email address was published on the official website of the University of Science and Technology early in the morning, but it was previously published on the School of Mathematics. Even if students majoring in biology knew her email address, they could not contact him.

After all, Zhou Ming was not a biology major before. Why would those biology majors contact Zhou Ming?It’s impossible to change your major and study mathematics with Zhou Ming, right?

Moreover, it is not that you can enter if you want to turn around.

While checking the mailbox at night, Zhou Ming also found some emails from students. The contents of these emails were almost the same, first they talked about Zhou Ming, and then they wanted to become Zhou Ming's graduate students, what should they do.

As for these emails, Zhou Ming also replied one by one. As for the content of the replies, they were all the same, that is, let them study hard, and he didn't have any special requirements.

In the following time, Zhou Ming would receive several such emails almost every few days, and Zhou Ming's replies were all the same.

Time passed so quickly, and soon came the 21st.

Today is Zhou Ming's first day at work. During the past few days, Zhou Ming will be reading in his room every day. Finally, he has advanced one more task in the life simulator, and the progress has reached 3/50.

Now, with only 10 experiments and 47 books left, Zhou Ming can complete the task of the life simulator and use the life simulator to simulate again.

On the first day of work, Zhou Ming is now facing a decision. He is currently working as a professor at the School of Mathematics and the Department of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Science and Technology, and receives two salaries at the same time, and he has two offices at the University of Science and Technology.

So, which office should Zhou Ming go to?
There are some things that are useless to entangle with. In the end, based on pragmatism, Zhou Ming chose to go to the office of the Department of Biomedical Sciences for a while.

After all, Zhou Ming's recent project is about biology. Since he doesn't plan to start a mathematics project recently, he naturally won't stay with the Mathematics Academy.

However, before going to the Department of Biomedical Sciences, Zhou Ming went to the number hospital first to explain the situation with Li Mingming, the dean of the number hospital.

"Why did you come to me on the first day of work today? What's the matter?"

Seeing that Zhou Ming, who usually looks for him on his own and has never come to his office to look for him, actually showed up in his office on his first day at work today, Li Mingzhi found it very strange.

Li Mingzhi thought that Zhou Ming had some new ideas so soon, so he felt strange and asked Zhou Ming with a sense of expectation.

"I accepted the recruitment of the Department of Biomedical Sciences a few days ago, and now I am also a professor at the Department of Biomedical Sciences. I don't think I have anything to do with the Department of Biomedical Sciences recently, so I am planning to stay at the Department of Biomedical Sciences recently. I just want to come here. Talk to you."

Zhou Ming saw the look of anticipation on Li Mingzhi's face, and felt a little embarrassed, but in the end he told the matter.

Hearing what Zhou Ming said, a trace of disappointment flashed across Li Zhizhi's face, but this disappointment was only fleeting, and it was hard for people to notice it.

Li Mingzhi laughed and said to Zhou Ming: "So that's what happened. It's okay. You can just stay there. However, this semester, we have your class here in the School of Mathematics, one class a week. Don't forget this." .”

"Dean Li, I know this. Don't worry, I will never forget it." After Li Mingzhi finished speaking, Zhou Ming also said hastily.

"That's right." Soon, Li Mingzhi said to Zhou Ming with a curious expression on his face, "The Academy of Biological Sciences recruited you this time because of the super bean in your experiment field, right? I heard that they seem to give you I applied for a second-level professor and passed, right?"

Zhou Ming nodded, and replied: "Yes, when I told Dean Zhang that we could send experts to check and accept, I mentioned that the super beans in my experimental field can produce 3000 catties per mu.

However, Dean Zhang didn't believe it at the time, and insisted on going to the experimental field with me to have a look, and then I told him the address of the experimental field, and then signed an employment contract in the experimental field. "

When Zhou Ming said this, Li Mingzhi showed a smile. His smile didn't look like a normal smile at all, it seemed like a smirk.

"Hey, Dean Zhang must not believe what you said at the time, thinking that you were compiling data, and wanted to expose you face to face in the experimental field, so that you would not let the matter go to the top.

Although Zhang Mingjie is the honorary dean, he is quite a responsible person.With him at the School of Biological Sciences, I feel relieved. "

After Li Mingzhi finished speaking, Zhou Ming went on to say: "After signing the contract, Academician Zhang and Dean Xue went to my side the next day and specifically notified me, saying that they submitted the offer to hire me as a member of the University of Science and Technology's Department of Biological Sciences. The professor of the college, and the evaluation of me as a second-level professor have passed overnight."

"I originally thought that after you started school, I would rate you as a second-level professor. After all, some people might say something about your proof of the twin prime number conjecture, but Goldbach's conjecture and the twin prime number conjecture are not the same concept at all. Applying for a second-level professor will definitely pass.

I just didn't expect the Institute of Biological Sciences to move so fast, but it's just right, so we'll do it for you later.

If you go further up, you will be a first-level professor, and there are not many first-level professors in our University of Science and Technology. "

Speaking of this, Li Mingzhi looked at Zhou Ming with an expression full of expectation, and said to him: "However, with your qualifications, if you continue to develop at the same pace as last year in the next few years, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. Became the youngest first-level professor in Huaguo.

And not only is he the youngest first-level professor, he is probably also the youngest academician.

Last time your academic report was over, after you went back to your hometown, I chatted with Professor Qiu again.He is full of praise for you, at least two of the three sentences are praises of you.

If you really want to select academicians, we people will definitely help you. "

What Li Mingzhi said has something to do with Huaguo's academician selection rules.

Academicians of Huaguo Academy of Sciences are elected every two years. Candidates are recommended. Individual applications are not accepted. Candidates are nominated by elected academicians. Generally, at least 3 academicians can nominate a candidate.

In recent years, in order to rejuvenate, more stringent regulations have been imposed on the recommendation of older scientists.

In other words, if you want to become an academician, you must be nominated by someone who is already an academician, and at least 3 academicians are required to jointly nominate a candidate.

Zhou Ming now knows a lot of academicians, including Li Mingzhi, Zhang Mingjie, Huang Zhixing, Qiu Chengping, etc., and they cover a wide range of fields.

It can be said that in whatever field Zhou Ming is currently researching, he knows some academicians in this field, and the relationship is not bad.

"Dean Li, I'm only 23 years old now, and I'm afraid it's too early to be an academician." Zhou Ming said modestly.

"Hey, it's too early for anyone else. If someone told me that someone in China was in his 20s and wanted to be elected as an academician, I could only say that he lost his mind and went crazy.

But now, if someone says the same thing as me, then I really think about it, because you do have the possibility.

By the way, you just said that you have some business with the Academy of Biological Sciences recently. Is there any new project about biology?Can you give me a little advance notice?How does it compare to your super bean? "

In the end, Li Mingzhi still couldn't restrain his curiosity. He usually doesn't gossip so much, but every research of Zhou Ming is so unusual, he really wants to know something.

Zhou Ming didn't say it clearly, but said to Li Mingzhi mysteriously: "This project this time is bigger than Super Beans, and you will know when the time comes."

Li Zhiming knew that Zhou Ming always liked to play tricks, and it was even more itchy to be told by Zhou Ming, but he didn't ask too much about this matter, but asked about mathematics.

"Then when are you going to study mathematics again? You said last time that you won't be able to do it in the short term. How long is this short term?"

"It depends on when my other studies will end, but it will definitely start within this year. Don't worry about that."

"Have you figured out what direction it is? Is it the Hodge theory suggested by Faltings and Deligne before?"

When it comes to mathematics, Li Mingzhi is most interested.

"I haven't thought about it yet." Zhou Ming said truthfully.
