"Dean Sun, are you looking for me?"

Chen Zhou pushed open the door of Dean Sun's office.

In the office, in addition to Dean Sun, there are also Dean Zhou, who is familiar to Chen Zhou, and Yao Tongtong, a reporter from Yanjing Daily, as well as President Qiu, the president of Yanda University, whom Chen Zhou is not very familiar with.

As for President Qiu's impression, Chen Zhou only stayed at the opening ceremony and the last award ceremony.

Especially the moment when President Qiu gave him a prize of one million, he was really impressed!

Dean Sun looked at Chen Zhou who came in with a smile and said, "Have you seen the news?"

Chen Zhou nodded lightly: "I saw it." ”

When Dean Sun saw Chen Zhou's calm face, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Why are you acting like you haven't heard this?

Chen Zhou looked at Dean Sun, then at Principal Qiu, and grinned: "No, I'm still quite surprised, I didn't expect it." It stands to reason that a bunch of people are waiting for this place, and it shouldn't be my turn. ”

Dean Sun shook his head and disagreed with Chen Zhou's statement: "You can't say that, if you only look at your qualifications, it won't be your turn." But how many people have surpassed you in terms of seniority? In other words, you have surpassed those who have attained seniority. ”

Chen Zhou didn't speak, Dean Sun could say this, but he couldn't really pick it up.

After thinking about it, Chen Zhou said sincerely: "Principal, dean, thank you. ”

Dean Sun smiled, "Thank you for what?"

Chen Zhou replied: "If it weren't for your letter of recommendation, I wouldn't have been selected as a top-notch young talent this time." ”

When he said this, Chen Zhou's expression was very sincere.

He was really grateful to President Qiu and Dean Sun in front of him, and he also knew that the joint recommendation letter would definitely not be just Dean Sun alone, maybe it would be led by President Qiu.

Principal Qiu on the side had been observing Chen Zhou's expression, and then said loudly: "You are wrong. Every year, at the time of selection, behind each candidate, there is a letter of recommendation from an academician. Our joint recommendation letter can only be regarded as the icing on the cake. ”

"On the contrary, your Dean Sun is right, your academic achievements have made many professors ashamed. If you are pressed by seniority, it will be too much. ”

"Moreover, the original intention of the state's 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan' does not allow this phenomenon to occur. That would be contrary to the original purpose of the plan. ”

Dean Sun also smiled and said, "That's right, after all, it's your own ability to reach it, otherwise, no matter how many joint letters we write, it won't be useful?"

Chen Zhou smiled shyly, praising himself like this, he was embarrassed.

After a pause, President Qiu said: "If my guess is correct, since the last time I set you up as a model for college students in the new era, the country has already intended to make you a banner. ”

"Judging from this selection, your flag has become the vane of the country's 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan'. It will also inevitably bring positive feedback to the implementation of the national 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan'!"

Chen Zhou heard it clearly, he looked at Principal Qiu with some surprise, this praise really made Chen Zhou unexpected.

What is the national "Ten Thousand Talents Plan"?

It is the country's 10-year talent plan!

Chen Zhou asked himself how difficult it is to bring positive feedback to these plans based on his current self.

Now he is at most a signal.

Moreover, President Qiu's words contain a bit of a large amount of information.

Thinking that there was another person in the office, Chen Zhou couldn't help but glance at Yao Tongtong.

Yao Tongtong was also shocked at the moment.

Although everyone has guessed some from the list of young top-notch talents this time, they all think that this is a new trend guided by the state.

But hearing from Principal Qiu's mouth is something else.

Who is Principal Qiu?

President of Yan University, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

In the academic field of China, he is a real bigwig.

Compared with President Qiu, even a reporter like her, who specializes in running news and deliberately staring at news in the academic circle, has serious information asymmetry.

They can only guess, but from Principal Qiu's mouth, it will be eight or nine and ten.

Thinking of this, Yao Tongtong instantly came to his senses.

This is absolutely absolutely big news, as long as it is written, the year-end bonus or something, is it not easy?

However, Yao Tongtong also realized one thing, these conversations don't seem to be something she can listen to?

However, she really didn't want to miss such a plan to collect information and materials.

Yao Tongtong hesitated and said, "That, President Qiu, Dean Sun, I'll go out first, and I'll come back when you have a good conversation?"

Principal Qiu glanced at Yao Tongtong, smiled and waved his hand: "Reporter Yao, you don't have to go out, just don't write my original words in the newspaper." And, I believe it won't be long before these contents will be everywhere in the newspapers. ”

"Thank you, Principal Qiu. Yao Tongtong said gratefully.

After saying that, she stood silently aside and continued to be an invisible person.

She still has this awareness.

However, she probably also knew the reason why Principal Qiu kept her.

When Chen Zhou saw Yao Tongtong's appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little funny.

Retracting his gaze, Chen Zhou looked at Principal Qiu, who was also looking at him.

Principal Qiu said again: "Chen Zhou, you don't have to be under pressure, I believe you enjoy this kind of pressure. ”

Chen Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "As long as the pressure is not too great, it's okay." ”

Hearing this, President Qiu and Dean Sun laughed in unison.

At the end, President Qiu said with emotion: "In recent years, the domestic scientific research environment, software and hardware are actually no worse than those abroad, and international exchanges have gradually become the norm, but there are still a large number of outstanding talents lost. ”

"In the past, graduated doctoral students always wanted to go abroad, because everyone thought that after going abroad, they would come back to have better treatment and support. And some of the good ones who have developed abroad are even reluctant to return to China. ”

"Now that there is the 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan', it can be regarded as calming the impetuous people's hearts. And your selection is to give the majority of outstanding talents a goal. ”

"Everyone has seen that age and seniority are not a problem. As long as you are good enough, you can be selected for the national talent plan. Enjoy the same treatment as foreign returnees. ”

"yes. Dean Sun also sighed with some emotion, "In the past, even if I had excellent professional performance, I could only evaluate my title, increase my salary, and apply for funds step by step. ”

"But now the implementation of the 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan' has given a new platform. Whether it is working conditions, career platform, living treatment, etc., they are the same as the talents of the 'Thousand Talents Program', and they are guaranteed by the state and enjoy the same treatment. ”

Hearing the words of President Qiu and Dean Sun, Chen Zhou couldn't help but think of the reporter's question at the award ceremony after he solved the hail conjecture.

The country is changing, but she needs to be given time.

Principal Qiu and Dean Sun glanced at each other, and both of them saw a look of relief on each other's faces.

"By the way, Chen Zhou, when the list of young top-notch talents is announced and the follow-up process is completed, you can apply for funding by yourself. Dean Sun reminded.

"Is there any funding for the project? This seems to be ......."

Chen Zhou originally wanted to say that the research he did seemed to be just a bunch of scratch paper and a bunch of refills.

But after hearing Dean Sun's follow-up words, Chen Zhou immediately stopped his words.

What Dean Sun said is that according to the provisions of the national "Ten Thousand Talents Program", the funding for the field of natural sciences is 1.2 million to 2.4 million yuan per person.

In addition, young top-notch talents are given the right to exercise autonomy and support them to carry out research on free topic selection, hold international and domestic exhibitions and performances, or participate in international cooperation, exchanges and training.

At the same time, the funds follow the selected candidates, and can nominally be managed by the university or the employer, but if the selected person changes the work unit, the funds will be transferred together.

This is also the reason why major universities and research institutions are vying for the selection of the national "Ten Thousand Talents Program".

Because the arrival of the selected candidates means a large inflow of funds.

Scientific research is often a lot of money-burning business, and sometimes it may not be possible to make this transaction.

However, in the second half of these words, Chen Zhou did not listen carefully.

But in the first half, Chen Zhou really listened to the 1.2 million to 2.4 million yuan of funds.

Looking at Chen Zhou's bright eyes, Dean Sun shook his head and smiled: "You kid, the reaction when you hear Qian is much better than before. ”

Chen Zhou smiled embarrassedly: "Dean Sun, it's not that I don't have money, but I am very happy to see that the country supports scientific research so much." ”

Dean Sun pointed at Chen Zhou speechlessly, and then asked, "You don't seem to have finished what you said just now, what do you say?"

"Uh......" Chen Zhou was a little embarrassed, but quickly said, "What I said seems to mean is that this seems to be the country that thinks too thoughtfully, and really attaches too much importance to talents, really attaches great importance to it." ”

Dean Sun looked at Chen Zhou and did not pierce this kid's words.

President Qiu didn't see Chen Zhou's thoughts, and said: "That's true, I believe that with the implementation of national policies, future talents will gather more and more." ”

Chen Zhou hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the principal is right. ”

Principal Qiu glanced at Chen Zhou with some surprise, thinking that this kid is so excited now?

As everyone knows, what Chen Zhou is thinking about now is, how to use so much money?

If you buy scratch paper, I'm afraid it's going to be a mountain......

Immediately, Chen Zhou thought of one more thing, and he asked out loud: "President Qiu, Dean Sun, I will graduate soon, and I will go to MIT to study, will this affect the young top-notch talents this time?"

Principal Qiu shook his head: "No." You're on a joint training program, and in a way, at MIT, you're an exchange student. When the time comes, after graduating from MIT, you will receive a Ph.D. from both Yan University and MIT. ”

Chen Zhou probably understood, which probably meant that MIT was only responsible for training, and he was actually a student at Yan University.

I don't know if MIT knows about this operation......

Dean Sun looked at Chen Zhou and said, "In fact, with your current academic achievements, it is okay to graduate directly from Yan University. ”

Chen Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is it a double doctorate degree from the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Physics?"

Hearing Chen Zhou's question, Dean Sun shook his head for a moment: "That's not it, it's just from the Department of Mathematics." ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhou said with a smile: "Then forget it, and if you don't go through a complete study, there will be regrets in life." ”

Dean Sun shook his head and chuckled: "I know that you kid has his own ideas and can follow his own plans, so I'm just saying it casually." ”

Chen Zhou smiled and did not speak.

Glancing at Chen Zhou, Principal Qiu wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

Dean Sun was the same, just looking at Chen Zhou, and didn't say what was in his heart.

What Chen Zhou's future will be, no one can say.

Moreover, the choice is always in Chen Zhou's own hands.

After spending two hours in Dean Sun's office, Chen Zhou left.

President Qiu and Dean Sun talked to him a lot, and basically explained the matter of young top-notch talents thoroughly.

I have to say that Chen Zhou is probably the happiest.

Compared to the other inductees, who can have two academicians and explain to themselves what the plan is all about at the same time?

Moreover, all kinds of details are explained to you clearly.

Of course, from this conversation, including Dean Sun's seemingly "casual" doctoral graduation, Chen Zhou also thought a lot.

He also knew what the two old men were worried about.

Shaking his head slightly, Chen Zhou stopped, turned around and asked, "Reporter Yao, let's find a location?"

Yao Tongtong came out with Chen Zhou, and this interview was only with Yan Da.

After the last time the paper on Cramell's conjecture came out, Yao Tongtong asked Chen Zhou to do an exclusive interview.

It's a pity that Chen Zhou is too difficult to make an appointment, and the reason is either to accompany his girlfriend or on the way to accompany his girlfriend.

In this regard, Yao Tongtong was very speechless, but there was no way, he couldn't come to Yan Da to squat again, right?

Yan University has banned this matter since the last incident of reporters entering the school.

Chen Zhou didn't know Yao Tongtong's thoughts, and if he knew, he probably felt very innocent.

I am indeed accompanying my girlfriend, or I am on the way to accompany my girlfriend.

It's just that the place to accompany my girlfriend is in the library.

The two went to a vacant classroom, and the interview began.

Yao Tongtong asked directly: "What do you think of being selected for the national 'Ten Thousand Talents Program'?"

Chen Zhou replied: "It's an honor. ”

Yao Tongtong waited for a while, and saw that Chen Zhou had indeed finished speaking, so he continued to ask the next question.

There is no surprise that, as in every previous interview, this answer is always so concise.

At the end, Yao Tongtong asked, "Then what do you think of the national 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan'?"

Hearing this question, Chen Zhou organized the language a little before saying: "The 'Ten Thousand Talents Plan' has set a weather vane, mobilized the enthusiasm of domestic high-level talents for innovation and entrepreneurship, and led everyone to work in the direction of building an innovative country." ”

"The country's emphasis on talents is unprecedented, and it is the right time for all kinds of talents to innovate, and it is the right time to realize the dream. We should take the initiative to integrate our dreams into the magnificent cause of the country's future and strive to write our names in the glorious annals of the country's great future. ”

Yao Tongtong glanced at Chen Zhou with some surprise, this seems to be the first time he has said so many things in addition to academic knowledge, right?

At the end of the interview, Yao Tongtong said politely: "Thank you for accepting my interview. ”

Chen Zhou naturally replied politely: "You're welcome." ”

After speaking, Chen Zhou prepared to go back to the library.

Looking at Chen Zhou, who was about to leave, Yao Tongtong hesitated and asked, "Can I ask you a question alone?"

Chen Zhou stopped and turned around suspiciously: "What's the problem?"

"Will you return to China in the future?" Yao Tongtong stared at Chen Zhou tightly, not wanting to miss the slightest expression on Chen Zhou's face.

Chen Zhou looked at Yao Tongtong and smiled softly: "Do you still need to ask?"
