When Zhuang Weiran left, Chen Zhong called Director Zhou on the phone, "Director Zhou, tell the professors in the Department of Mathematics that a brief meeting is going to be held now. Let them all come to the meeting."

Director Zhou hung up the phone and sent an email online to inform the professors of the Department of Mathematics to go to the conference room for a meeting.

Meeting at this time, it's hard not to wonder if it has something to do with Zhuang Weiran.Yesterday's academic report was going to be a success, and most people in Dragon City University were rejoicing.But there are still a small number of people who feel that Zhuang Weiran's big appearance again is very dazzling.What's more, they didn't attend this academic report at all.

He also said that Zhuang Weiran's academic report would be just to write proofs, knowing that he is very good, what's so interesting.Good research doesn't necessarily teach students.The thirty contestants who participated in the show before were pretty bad, and Zhuang Weiran didn't teach them well.

In the future, he will teach students in class. How can he, a great professor, teach... and so on. Anyway, he is full of sourness.

Even in this meeting, many mathematics professors who had opinions about Zhuang Weiran participated.

Director Zhou came to the meeting room first, and a professor in his fifties walked up and said angrily, "Isn't school starting yet? Another meeting?"

Seeing the angry look of the old professor, Director Zhou smiled, "Professor Feng calm down, isn't this the principal going to hold a short meeting? It won't take long."

"I know that the principal's grandson is amazing, Huaguo is No. 1 in mathematics, but there's no need to show off like this every day."

"Professor Feng, what you said is wrong. After all, Professor Zhuang is the pride of Huaguo's mathematics community. You speak like this, as if you are not a mathematics professor from Huaguo."

Li Fei sat next to him and concentrated on playing with the pen. He was almost regarded as Zhuang Weiran's diehard, belonging to Zhuang Weiran's school.

Professor Feng snorted coldly, and said in a strange way, "Who doesn't know that Principal Chen wants his grandson to continue to be the principal of Dragon City University, I think it's called Dragon City University, just change it to..."

"Cough cough." Director Zhou coughed lightly, "Professor Feng, what's wrong with you today?"

"Isn't Lao Feng just angry?" The old professor next to him said gently, "Old Feng has been a third-level professor for decades, and he hasn't been promoted yet. Let me tell you, Lao Feng, you, It's time to study the Millennium Prize problem. If it is researched, wouldn't it be the next level professor?"

Li Fei lowered his head and smiled softly.

"I can't study the Millennium Prize problem, but you can?"

"That's not right, old Feng, I don't have any opinion on Professor Zhuang." The man spread his hands and said, "Don't you have a big opinion on Professor Zhuang? I was thinking, or you also Study one."

"Yes, Professor Zhuang is indeed very powerful." The professor in his 40s walked over and said, "But he is too young after all, he has won the Fields Medal, he is also a professor at Princeton University, and he is also a dragon. We are chair professors and first-level professors of City University, aren’t we also afraid that Professor Zhuang will drift away?”

"I don't know if Professor Zhuang is floating or not, but I see a lot of people seem to have a problem with the mathematician who solved the Millennium Prize problem." One of the old professors with a smile on his mouth put down his reading glasses, "His academic achievements All can be seen, every time the academic achievements are in the first area of ​​SCI or even the core journals. Ask yourself, how many of your academic achievements can be published in the core journals?"

"Speaking of others here, why don't you speak in front of them?"

"Old Zeng, you can't say that. No matter how powerful Zhuang Weiran is, he can't take all the advantages, right? There are so many professors in the Mathematics Department of Longcheng University, why should Zhuang Weiran get two salary?"

"He has this strength, do you have it?"

After saying this, everyone's faces turned red, yes, Zhuang Weiran can solve the problem of the Millennium Award, can anyone else do it?

As a result, another person smiled and said calmly, "I heard that Professor Zhuang's next topic is Hodge's conjecture."

Professor Feng patted the table and sneered, "He Zhuang Weiran really thinks that he is the reincarnation of Gauss? He has been touted by several media, so there is no way to find it? Hodge guessed, hey, I want to see it. When will a professor Zhuang Da be able to make Hodge's conjecture."

"He might be able to solve it. You can't talk too much. After all, he is Professor Zhuang, isn't he?" The man smiled coldly, as if he was mocking, and seemed to be adding to the already angry face. fire.

From what Li Fei heard, it was just malicious.He is inciting other people to fight with Zhuang Weiran's snipe and clam, and he, a fisherman, will naturally be able to succeed.

Especially this Professor Feng, who usually likes to complain.After so many years, he is still a third-level professor.He has never been awarded a professional title. It is really impossible to say how good he is academically.

Academically, they are half-baked, but their lives are higher than the sky. They always feel that they have not been promoted because their talents have not been displayed. There are quite a few people like this.Not to mention Zhuang Weiran, he is also full of complaints about Director Zhou and Principal Chen.

This kind of person is not something you can't afford, and it's not that you can't.He gives people the feeling that he is full of negative energy, and if he is close to him, he will become unlucky.

As for the yin and yang, who fanned the flames, it was even more unpleasant.At this time, many old professors and Director Zhou frowned slightly. Isn't this encouraging Professor Feng and Zhuang Weiran to fight?

We have worked together for so many years, but they still don't know the level of Professor Feng?

Professor Feng's academic research and teaching of doctoral students are sufficient.But I can't teach good doctoral students. Zhuang Weiran is a top international mathematician and is known as the No. 1 mathematics in Huaguo.In terms of mathematics, many old professors and even academicians are ashamed.

Letting Professor Feng go to fight Zhuang Weiran in the ring is not a matter of making Professor Feng lose face, it is simply driving such a proud and arrogant person like Professor Feng to a corner.

Borrowing a knife to kill someone, this is it!Everyone was heartbroken and looked at the forty-something professor who spoke just now.

Li Fei said with a smile at this time, "So, it seems that Professor Lin is confident to solve Hodge's conjecture before Professor Zhuang?"

"Where, where." Professor Lin said with a smile, "I can't even understand Professor Zhuang's thesis. How can I solve Hodge's conjecture before Professor Zhuang? But Mr. Feng has a problem with Professor Zhuang?" ?Maybe Mr. Feng can solve it faster than Professor Zhuang."

Professor Feng's face was flushed red, and he felt that he couldn't get off the stage.

Professor Zeng laughed, "Why hasn't Principal Chen come yet? Almost all the professors from our mathematics department are coming, right?"

"I guess it must be about Professor Zhuang." Professor Lin was still fanning the flames, "No way, who would let Professor Zhuang win both the Fields Medal and the Craford Mathematics Prize? Our mathematics department , the world is about to change. In the end, it is probably Professor Zhuang's world."

"Xiao Lin, you have a lot of complaints." Professor Zeng held the thermos and kept spinning it, "Why, are you not satisfied with Professor Zhuang?"

"Don't be in a hurry to deny it. From your tone, I'm dissatisfied with Professor Zhuang, right?"

"Where is it, Mr. Zeng, you are always an academician. But your treatment in Longcheng University is not as good as that of Professor Zhuang, am I wondering?"

Professor Zeng was expressionless, "So, Professor Xiaolin is still fighting me?"

"That's not it."

"No need." Professor Zeng said with a smile, "I'm ashamed to be inferior to Professor Zhuang. He has this treatment because he is good. It's not something anyone can give it if they want."

"Anyway, I have no objection to Professor Zhuang's treatment. If anyone of you has any objections, just respond. It's not like you can't find the principal's office."

"That's what I said, but special circumstances must also be taken into consideration. The old principal and Professor Zhuang are close relatives after all. It's not incomprehensible that our old dean is a little bit biased towards Professor Zhuang."

"Xiaolin, I'm much older than you, so I'll call you Xiaolin. Professor Zhuang was a chair professor at Princeton University before, and he was also a professor at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study. The salary is much better than that of Dragon City University. He left the good life of Princeton University, ran back to China, and didn’t go to Beijing University and Jinghua, which had higher salaries, but came to Longcheng University. Wasn’t it because his grandfather was the old principal? , this is the only compensation that Professor Zhuang can make."

"Xiao Lin, if you have this ability, let alone Principal Chen, I'm partial to you. You should see if you have this ability to make people like it." Zeng Lao said unceremoniously, "Why don't you also make a The Millennium Prize conundrum?"

"How about, Xiao Lin, look at this, you go to Princeton University to be a chair professor first, and by the way, become a professor in the School of Mathematics at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study. After you come back, we will give you the same treatment as Professor Zhuang?"

Professor Zeng is one of the oldest professors in Longcheng University and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He is very prestigious among professors.

He is so straightforward against Professor Lin, he is undoubtedly on Zhuang Weiran's side.

"Oh, it's so lively." Chen Zhongxin knew that everyone must be talking about Zhuang Weiran just now, but he smiled as if nothing happened just now.

Professor Lin snorted coldly and said nothing. Professor Feng always felt that Professor Zeng was referring to Sang and Huai, and he was very upset.

Chen Zhong sat in the first seat, looked at everyone's expressions, and said with a smile, "What's the matter? I think everyone is very unhappy?"

Director Zhou said with a smile, "It's nothing, everyone is just arguing, President Chen, if you have something to say, just say it."

"Okay, let me make a long story short." Chen Zhong didn't say much, and handed Pierce's recommendation letter to Director Zhou, "Everyone can take a look, this is a recommendation letter from Princeton University. A student named Pierce wants to We are Ph.D students at Dragon City University."

Professor Lin said with a sneer at this time, "I'm afraid you want to follow Professor Zhuang to study for a doctoral degree?"

"That's right." Chen Zhong admitted directly, "I really want to do a Ph.D. with Xiaozhuang. Why, does Professor Lin have any different opinions?"

"No, principal. I don't dare to have any opinions. They are here for Professor Zhuang, and I have no choice but to do otherwise."

"Oh?" Chen Zhong smiled, "Listen, there is resentment!"

"Don't dare." Professor Lin hurriedly stopped, "I just want to say, our school has never had such a rule, right? How can this student from Princeton University go to Dragon City University to study for a doctorate?"

"It's abnormal."

Professor Feng echoed, "It's quite abnormal." Professor Feng had already figured out what Professor Lin was thinking just now, but in order to hate Zhuang Weiran, he had to bite the bullet and agree with Professor Lin.

"This matter is related to Professor Xiao Zhuang, why didn't you see Professor Xiao Zhuang?" Suddenly someone asked, "Professor Xiao Zhuang is not so good, so many of our professors are here, he can't even take a look? "

"I didn't let him come." Chen Zhong put his hands on the table and said with a smile, "I thought, according to the principle of avoidance, if this student wants to study with him, it's better not to let him come. .”

"Speaking of which, Principal Chen is more thoughtful." I don't know if everyone misunderstood what the man said, and I always felt a little yin and yang, but the smell was not as strong as that of Professor Lin.

Principal Chen knew very well that there were many people who were not convinced by Zhuang Weiran, and these people only spoke out, and some did not.

Thinking about it, it's not surprising that so many people have opinions on Zhuang Weiran.There are always people who will be hostile to others because of some inexplicable thoughts.What's more, Zhuang Weiran stood too high and was too conspicuous.

"There are also two emails, which were sent to Zhuang Weiran by Professor Deligne of Princeton University and Professor Wiles of Oxford University, both of which are emails recommending this student."

Professor Lin couldn't help but said, "Who knows if it will be fake."

"Professor Deligne and Professor Wiles are currently in Dragon City. If you want to ask for a certificate, just ask the two professors." Chen Zhong said with a smile, "It is true that there is no such precedent in Dragon City University, but they are not far away. Wan Li came to Dragon City University from Princeton University to study for a Ph. There are only advantages and no disadvantages in college."

"I would rather not even get a doctorate from Princeton University, but come to Dragon City University to study for a doctorate. I don't need to elaborate on what that means?"

Everyone is silent, which is a good thing for Longcheng University.But all the benefits were taken up by Zhuang Weiran, which made Professor Lin, Professor Feng and some other professors who did not express their feelings very upset.

No matter how powerful Zhuang Weiran is, he is only a 20-year-old brat.They started in their 40s, and it took a lot of hard work to become a professor. Zhuang Weiran made a few conjectures and proved it, and became a professor directly.It's fine to be a professor abroad, but when I return to China, I can firmly suppress them all.Who can be happy, they are not all people like Professor Zeng, who think that their academics are not as good as others, so they should belong to them.He is a person who has just come to Longcheng University for less than two months, and his qualifications can't be said.

It's a strange thing to be happy if this keeps pressing them down.

Director Zhou continued, "I think it's pretty good."

"It's pretty good, but why do you want to study with Professor Zhuang? Will Princeton University establish some contact with our school in the future? The school really doesn't have such a precedent, and it's not easy to set such a precedent. That is to say, we have to admit that he has become a doctoral student at Princeton University. The problem is that the way Princeton University screens doctoral students is different from our Dragon City University. How can we ensure that other doctoral students will not make trouble?"

"Professor Zhuang has just arrived at Longcheng University. He has not been a professor for a few days. His students from Princeton University have rushed over. What will the other doctoral students think? What would you say about us?"

Director Zhou was so quarreled that his brain ached, "I don't think who dares to say that?"

He roared, and no one spoke.You look at me, I look at you.

"I heard you mean that the doctoral students of Princeton University are not qualified to be doctoral students of Dragon City University, is that true?"

"Director Zhou, you completely misunderstood what I meant. I meant that other doctoral students have worked so hard to get into Dragon City University. Such a person doesn't need to take the exam and just came to study for a doctorate. Do you think other doctoral students have no objections? ? If something goes wrong, everyone will not look good."

"What can happen?"

"Let's do this." Professor Zeng said, "If more than half of those who agree, raise their hands, let him come to Dragon City University to study for a Ph.D. Now, do you have any objections?"

"State your opinion." Director Zhou raised his hand first, followed by Li Fei.Then Professor Zeng raised his hand, and Chen Zhong also raised his hand.Scattered hands were raised, and after a calculation, it was indeed more than half.

"This is the end of the good meeting." Director Zhou looked at everyone, "Since more than half of them have agreed, if your doctoral students have any opinions on this Pierce coming to Dragon City University to study for a doctorate, let them come to the office to find me."

"You can find me." Li Fei said with a smile, "I will explain clearly to them."

"I'm old. I can't do much academic work anymore, but I still ate a lot." Professor Zeng shook his head with a regretful expression on his face. "If anyone refuses to accept it, let them come to my office. Talk to them about life."

Everyone was silent, since the people in front had already spoken, it was obviously a done deal.

After Chen Zhong left, Director Zhou also left with a cold face.Li Fei smiled at Professor Zeng, "Thank you, Professor Zeng." He left with his things, and Professor Lin stood up and said to Professor Zeng, "Mr. Zeng, I still don't quite understand, don't you have some complaints about Zhuang Weiran? ?”

"I don't think it's a very good thing for him to be ambitious at a young age. He needs to settle down. Study academically." Professor Zeng said blankly, "It's not that he is better than me."

After speaking, Professor Zeng left the office, leaving Professor Lin stomping alone.

Zhuang Weiran is really too dazzling. He used to be one of the most promising professors in Longcheng University. Zhuang Weiran's arrival made him see no hope at all.

This guy, why don't he go to Beijing University or Jinghua, he has to come to the three-acre land of Longcheng University.
