Yang Kaining originally thought that Ding Yue's Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences was just a little-known private university in China.

Now it seems that this private university is not simple!

First of all, their principal Ding Yue, the young man standing in front of Yang Kaining at this moment, is actually a genius in the field of physics, and has developed the third-generation semiconductor gallium nitride material technology for China together with several professors from Jiangnan University of Science and Technology.

Yang Kaining thought that it was just Ding Yue, but what he didn't expect was that the computer science department of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences actually came to Zurich, Switzerland to participate in the ACM International Collegiate Programming Competition?

Yang Kaining naturally knows that this ACM competition is a very important competition for global college students majoring in computer science.

Although Yang Kaining teaches biological sciences at ETH Zurich, ETH Zurich's computer science major is actually quite good.

This time, the ACM International Student Programming Competition was held in Zurich, and a team from the Computer Science Department of ETH Zurich participated.

And as far as Yang Kaining knows, the qualification for the global finals of the ACM International Collegiate Programming Competition is not so easy to obtain.

"Principal Ding, you just said that your school came to Zurich to participate in the ACM competition?"

Yang Kaining looked at Ding Yue with some incredulity and asked.

Ding Yue nodded confidently, and then briefly introduced the members of his team from Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences to Professor Yang Kaining: "These three are the three-person team of our Department of Computer Science of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, who came to participate in the ACM competition here. ”

"But as far as I know, the ACM competition is limited in every state and country, and your school ......."

Yang Kaining was puzzled.

Although Xia's comprehensive national strength is increasing dramatically and its status in the international community is also increasing, it is obviously impossible for a university to come to Zurich to participate in the ACM competition, right?

There must be a quota in Xia Kingdom, and there should not be many places, after all, even the quota in the whole of Europe seems to be no more than ten.

"Hahaha, Professor Yang, you are right, our country participated in the ACM competition this time, and there are a total of three places. ”

Ding Yue burst out laughing.

Ding Yue obviously knew that Professor Yang Kaining couldn't believe that his Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences could still have the qualifications to come to Zurich to participate in the ACM competition.

"Of these three places, Haicheng Jiaotong University occupies one, Northwestern University of Science and Technology occupies one, and this last one is our Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences. ”

When Ding Yue said this, he was not proud at all, but seemed very modest and calm.

After Professor Yang Kaining heard this, he immediately frowned, feeling that this is too incredible, right?

There is no doubt about the quota of Haicheng Jiaotong University, and Yang Kaining knows that the computer major of Jiaotong University in China is particularly powerful.

Northwestern University of Science and Technology is also a key university in China, and it is understandable that talented students majoring in computer science may be able to get a place this year.

But!

It's just Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, a domestic private university that Professor Yang Kaining has only heard of today, and can actually get a place?

"Principal Ding, your school's computer science major is very good? ”

Professor Yang Kaining asked curiously.

"Actually, it's okay, the main thing is that a few of them are really good. As Ding Yue spoke, he looked at Xu Bin, Chen Jun and Ouyang Chen.

The three of them are basically the ace elites of the computer science department of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

If the computer science department of Fog City University of Arts and Sciences did not have the three of them, it would be equivalent to a pheasant university's computer science professional level.

Professor Yang Kaining looked at Xu Bin and the others, his eyes were full of expectations.

Perhaps in Professor Yang Kaining's view, he actually hopes that the domestic university team can achieve a good result in this ACM competition.

However, Professor Yang Kaining did not say so.

This is just a speculation by Ding Yue, after all, it is possible that Professor Yang Kaining supports ETH Zurich.

"I didn't expect President Ding, your Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences is also full of talents, and to be honest, being able to qualify for the ACM competition is actually quite powerful. ”

Professor Yang Kaining and Ding Yue walked side by side on the campus of ETH Zurich, chatting about Fog City University of Arts and Sciences.

Professor Yang Kaining was even more surprised when he learned that Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences was still a private university that had only just opened.

He never thought that the private education in China was already of such a high standard?

In fact, Professor Yang Kaining ignored many elements, that is, most of the private universities in China are actually still the same hanging sample.

Only Ding Yue's Foggy City University of Arts and Sciences does have unique signs now.

"Maybe we were lucky. ”

Ding Yue said modestly: "There are still quite a lot of colleges and universities in China that are strong in computer science, and it is really unexpected that we can get a place this year." ”

Ding Yue will still say polite words.

Soon, Professor Yang Kaining did not continue to talk to Ding Yue about this topic, but continued to talk about ETH Zurich.

This top university, which is ranked sixth in the QS World University Rankings, has many world-class majors, which Ding Yue is very interested in.

Among them, physics is the same as Ding Yue's major.

There are also biological sciences and the like, about the situation of biological sciences, Ding Yue can directly consult Professor Yang Kaining.

As for the rest, Ding Yue actually wanted to take a look at the relevant research results, but Professor Yang Kaining said that these were relatively confidential, and there was no way to take Ding Yue to visit, at most he could only visit the periphery.

Ding Yue also understands this.

After all, the professional technology or academic-related research of any university is basically a very core content, and it is generally not allowed to be seen by outsiders.

If it was Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, Ding Yue would do the same, and it is completely understandable to think about it from another perspective.

In the end, after an afternoon of shopping, Ding Yue basically understood the general idea of those ace majors at ETH Zurich, which was a little higher than what could be found on the Internet, but it could not reach the core content of other ace majors.

In fact, Ding Yue didn't plan to come to ETH Zurich to get a glimpse of anything.

The main thing is to see how people's science city is built.

To sum up, it is necessary to have some cutting-edge majors, which must be developed and then have strong enough scientific research capabilities.

For example, physics, chemistry, biological sciences, medicine, etc., if these are strong enough, there is no problem in building a science city like ETH Zurich.

"Professor Yang, to tell you the truth, we at Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences also want to build a scientific research base center, so I came here today to learn from ETH Zurich, but after learning from you, I found out that we have a long, long way to go. ”

Ding Yue said to Professor Yang Kaining with emotion.

When Professor Yang Kaining heard this, he said with a smile: "President Ding, you Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences are still young, step by step, I believe that our Xia Kingdom's college education career will one day be able to step onto the international stage." ”

Ding Yue could hear that Professor Yang Kaining's words carried a kind of "hope", whether the hope could be realized, or whether Professor Yang Kaining could see the day when it could be realized, was a question.

Qinghua Yanda, the strongest in Xia Kingdom, is still a little difficult to rank among the top in the global comprehensive strength ranking.

But the ranking is certainly not bad!

"Professor Yang, there will be a day. ”

Ding Yue smiled confidently.

As long as everything goes smoothly at his Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, perhaps in the next few decades, this Xia Guo private university, which no one has ever heard of before, will be able to stand on top of the world.

Regarding Ding Yue's confidence, Yang Kaining just smiled.

Maybe this young man has great goals in mind, but Yang Kaining said that he may not see that day, after all, he is already in his fifties.

Under the leadership of Professor Yang Kaining, Ding Yue and a group of people from Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences visited the new campus of ETH Zurich, known as Science City.

In the evening, the group left and returned to the hotel in the city.

"Abin, the three of you give me a good rest tonight, tomorrow's ACM competition, take out the majesty of our Xia Kingdom, and let the gringos see who is the leader in the computer world!"

Ding Yue admonished Xu Bin.

"Come on, Brother Yue, look at it. Xu Bin nodded.

Then everyone had dinner, and they all went back to their rooms, Ding Yue also returned to his room, took a hot bath, and Ding Yue was ready to rest on the Internet for a while.

After a day of shopping, I was indeed a little tired.

However.

Just when Ding Yue was lying on the sofa with his mobile phone, Xu Bin made a voice call.

"What's wrong, Abin?"

Ding Yue answered the voice call and asked immediately.

"Forget it, I'll come to your room and tell you in person. Xu Bin seemed to be a little impatient and said, "I'll call Chen Jun and Ouyang Chen as well." ”

Well?

Is there something going on?

Ding Yue suddenly became a little nervous.

It's the night before tomorrow's ACM race, so could it be that something big is going to happen?

Ding Yue was about to ask on the voice call, but Xu Bin hung up.

After about five minutes, Xu Bin took Chen Jun and Ouyang Chen to the door of Ding Yue's room.

Knock knock!

Hearing a knock on the door, Ding jumped over and opened the door.

"What's wrong?"

Ding Yue asked Xu Bin, Chen Jun, and Ouyang Chen to call in, and saw that they all had their own laptops.

You know, their laptops are their "treasures", and they usually take them with them when they go out on a mission.

"It's infuriating, this shitty gringo!"

As soon as Xu Bin walked into the room, he said angrily.

"Huh?"

When Ding Yue heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

Then when I saw Xu Bin scolding and scolding and talking about gringos, I could probably guess some clues.

Isn't it a gringo who is doing something?

This is Zurich, Switzerland, Europe, not domestic, Ding Yue and others are out of the house, and they are also participating in international competitions such as ACM, and it is normal to encounter some gringos doing things, especially gringos from other universities who also participate in ACM competitions.

"That University of Pennsylvania!"

Xu Bin took a deep breath and said to Ding Yue: "I said on Twitter that our Xia Kingdom's computers are lagging behind the world level, and it is simply humiliating to participate in the ACM competition!"

"Humiliating yourself?, the gringos of the Eagle Sauce Country will use the idioms of our Xia Kingdom?" Ding Yue couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

"Brother Yue, you can still laugh!" Xu Bin said angrily.

"By the way, how did you know that, you followed the University of Pennsylvania's Twitter account?"

Ding Yue asked curiously.

"It's not. Xu Bin immediately shook his head and explained: "They University of Pennsylvania directly challenged our Xia Guo universities participating in the ACM competition this time, and we were strolling around ETH Zurich in the afternoon, I don't know yet, I also told me after I came back, people from Northwestern University of Science and Technology told me." ”

After Xu Bin returned to the hotel, before he could take a shower, he saw a message sent to him by the head of the computer team of Northwest University of Science and Technology.

As soon as Xu Bin saw this news, he was directly angry.

This computer team from the University of Pennsylvania is a provocation by Chi Guoguo!

"What's the provocation?"

Ding Yue was quite curious, he could actually make Abin so angry.

But in fact, Ding Yue felt that this was more like intentional.

You said that the team from the University of Pennsylvania had nothing to do to provoke the three universities in Xia Guo?

Obviously, he deliberately engaged in the mentality of colleges and universities in the three countries of the Xia Kingdom.

Of course, this is just Ding Yue's speculation, and what is going on depends on Xu Bin.

"It's just that the team from the University of Pennsylvania is disrespectful to our participating colleges and universities in Xia Country, and that we can't even handle the procedures of their schools, so why should we participate in ACM!"

Xu Bin was so angry that his teeth itched, and then he said indignantly: "I still don't believe it, I have to break this program of their University of Pennsylvania for him tonight!"

"Director Xu, you are calm, this procedure at the University of Pennsylvania is not simple, and it will take a lot of effort if we want to break it. ”

Ouyang Chen hurriedly persuaded Director Xu.

However, Xu Bin definitely can't swallow this breath, how can the husband endure it in the face of the provocation of the gringos?

When Ding Yue heard Ouyang Chen say this, he immediately felt that his guess just now was right.

"You just said that it is not impossible to crack this program at the University of Pennsylvania, but it will take a lot of time and effort?"

Ding Yue immediately looked at Ouyang Chen and asked.

Ouyang Chen nodded: "Yes, President Ding, with Director Xu's strength, I think it is possible to break this procedure of the University of Pennsylvania!"

"Hear that, Brother Yue, watch me slap the face of the University of Pennsylvania when the time comes!" Xu Bin said with full of fighting spirit.

"Hahahaha!"

Ding Yue laughed out loud in the next second: "Abin, is this, do you still need to break it? The University of Pennsylvania is deliberately provoking us, if you go to break their program, you will be fooled." ”

"yes, provoke us...... Wait, deliberately?" Xu Bin suddenly calmed down when he heard this.
