Chapter 157: Interview
"The country has its own laws, and the team has its own rules. ”
"Shen Qi, do you think that the Yanda track and field team will come if they want to, and leave if they want to?" said Teacher Wu loudly.
"I'm sorry Mr. Wu, I apologize for my rude behavior yesterday. Shen Qi also realized that it was wrong to run away without saying hello yesterday.
Being honest with each other is the most basic quality of interpersonal communication, Shen Qi said bluntly: "Teacher Wu, I will have mathematical inspiration as soon as I run, but inspiration is fleeting, so I need to record inspiration at the first time, a good brain is better than a bad pen." ”
"Although I am a PE teacher, I am not bad at math and I have a lot of respect for mathematicians. "Yan students put their studies first, and Mr. Wu can understand it.
Mr. Wu also knows that most of the members of this track and field team will eventually choose their major firmly between sports and their majors, and do not want to become professional athletes. Some students take track and field as a hobby, and playing tickets can play at a professional level, which is their ability.
Students who have the ability should not be persecuted, but should go with the flow. Teacher Wu and Shen Qi have three chapters, first, it's okay to find inspiration, but you have to say hello before you run away. Second, train well when you come. Third, Shen Qi is not required to come every day, at least three days a week, and the cumulative training time of a day is not less than 3 hours.
"Can you do it?" asked Mr. Wu.
"Long live understanding. ”
Teacher Wu is benevolent and righteous, Shen Qi has no reason not to choose respect, he won't run away today, stay in the team to train long-distance running, and practice until eight o'clock in the evening.
Sports XP +1

Through Mr. Wu's professional guidance, Shen Qi realized that seemingly simple long-distance running is also skillful.
When running on the way, the foot landing cushion needs to minimize drag and reduce the loss of horizontal speed.
Therefore, when the foot hits the ground, the thigh should be actively pressed down, and the ankle, knee and hip should be quickly bent to cushion.
The toes should always be in the direction of the run to avoid inward and outward deviations, which are very important in long-distance running.
Teacher Wu calculated the group data and told Shen Qi that if the athlete with a foot length of 28 cm deviates 20 degrees when he lands on the ground, he will lose 1.68 cm per step compared to the non-biased one. If the average stride length of an athlete is 1.8 meters, then 10,000 meters will have to run 93 meters more, close to a quarter of a lap, which is terrifying.
Shen Qi understood in seconds, and also realized two truths, first, whether it is an outer character or an inner character, it is not suitable for long-distance running.
Second, who said that the physical education teacher was not good at math, I Shen Qi was anxious with him.
Data-based athletics, quantitative running, this is very much in line with Shen Qi's appetite, today's mathematical inspiration has not been recorded, but Shen Qi has found an interesting way to play.
When he returned to his dormitory in the evening, Shen Qi received a new email, from Xu Weini, editor of "Mathematical Review".
"Editor Xu asked me to go to the editorial office of the Review of Mathematics to discuss my paper, but I was just about to talk to the editor, a paper stuck me three times, what is the situation? ”
On the morning of the next day, Shen Qi came to the building of the Academy of Mathematics as promised, and the editorial office of "Mathematical Review".
In a conference room, Shen Qi met with editor Xu Weini.
"Coffee or tea? The coffee in our editorial office is great. Xu Weini asked.
"A glass of plain water would have been fine, thank you. Shen Qi said.
There was a water dispenser in the conference room, Xu Weini took a disposable paper cup and took a cup of boiled water and handed it to Shen Qi: "I have learned your basic information, a first-year student in the Department of Mathematics of Yan University." ”
"That's right, Editor Xu, let's get straight to the point. Shen Qi knew that the people who could work in this building basically had a background of graduating from Yan University. Editor Xu is estimated to have graduated from several colleges, so I should call her senior sister according to my seniority? But Editor Xu's tone and demeanor are more official, and he doesn't care if I call me junior brother, so let's do business.
Xu Weini opened the folder and took out a bunch of documents and put them on the table: "This is Shen Qi's paper, "Analysis of Generalized Nonlinear Complementarity Problems Constrained by Linear Inequality", as well as the feedback from the reviewers and authors on their respective three editions. ”
Shen Qi looked at the pile of documents, and his head was big: "Editor Xu, who is this reviewer?"
"Hey, you're luring me into breaking the rules. Xu Weini smiled but did not answer.
"Chinese?" Shen Qi asked.
"Of course. ”
"Southerners or northerners?" Shen Qi asked again.
"I don't know. ”
"Man or woman?"
"No comment. ”
"Then I always have the right to know which university or research institution the reviewer is from, right? Editor Xu, if you want to find a primary school math teacher to review my manuscript, I will definitely not accept it. ”
"Hey, Shen Qi, when you first submitted, I asked you to recommend a few industry experts, and we tried our best to invite one or several experts from the list of experts you recommended as your reviewers, which is the author's right, but you don't use this right. Therefore, my journal has arranged experts to be the reviewers of your paper, and now you ask me who the experts are, I really can't answer you, please forgive me. Xu Weini spoke without leaking.
Li'er is this Li'er, Shen Qi doesn't bother with the identity of the reviewer, he said: "Editor Xu, just say it directly, what should I do next?"
"It is recommended that you revise your manuscript based on the reviewer's comments. Xu Weini said, "Shen Qi, you don't want a paper to be published for a long time, do you?"
Shen Qi handed a document to Xu Weini, which was a draft of his feedback: "Editor Xu, you see, I have written very clearly that in specific cases, this problem can be transformed into an unconstrained minimization problem of an equivalent semi-smooth equation system. ”
Xu Weini: "Huh?"
"So you think I'm wrong?" asked Shen Qi.
"Come, drink water. Xu Weini picked up Shen Qi's paper cup and refilled the boiling water for him.
"Thank you. Shen Qi took the water cup and said: "In the review comments, the reviewer did not directly answer my question, but gave a new algorithm and asked me to overhaul according to this new algorithm, which I am a little unconvinced." For example, I bought a Mercedes-Benz to give to you, but you told me, don't don't, I don't want Mercedes-Benz, Mercedes-Benz has problems, problems, and is not safe, I want BMW, BMW is beautiful and safe. ”
"Then please tell me clearly, what is wrong with Mercedes-Benz, is it a chassis problem or a body problem? Is the airbag quality not up to par or the brakes are failing?"
"I asked three times in a row, just to know the truth, to improve it, to make you happy, to give you safety. However, your answer three times is the same, don't don't, I don't want Mercedes, I want a BMW, you have to buy me a brand new BMW. ”
"If it were you, I would ask you if you were angry?" Shen Qi persuaded people with virtue and reason, and reasoned with Editor Xu.
Xu Weini actually didn't know much about the logic of Shen Qi's thesis, after all, the professional direction was not right, but she understood Shen Qi's analogy: "There is really a man who gives me a luxury car, BBA level, it doesn't matter if he is a Mercedes or a BMW, get in the car first, and then drive away." ”
"This ...... You are such an editor Xu?" Shen Qi was speechless.
"However, writing an essay is not as simple as giving a luxury car to a girl and making them happy. Xu Weini looked at her phone, got up and said, "Shen Qi, you rest for a while, I have some work to deal with temporarily, and my colleague will come in and continue to negotiate with you later." ”
"Oh. "Shen Qi is a little unhappy, you invited me to come, about the academic details in the paper, don't talk a word, try to talk about some processes, rules and other relatively empty things.
Shen Qi, who was keenly observant, saw through some temptations that Editor Xu didn't understand his paper very well, and she was just a middleman, just coordinating in the middle. You can't confront the reviewer face to face, and the editor can't give an explanation, what do you say?
After a while, a middle-aged man came in, not tall, not short, not fat or thin, looking mature and steady, with the calm temperament of a successful man.
"Hello Shen Qi, I am Xu Weini's colleague, and I am in charge of the thesis review. The middle-aged man said.
"Hello editor. "Shen Qi doesn't know what this person's surname is, it should also be an editor?
The middle-aged man didn't grind, he said straight to the point: "Shen Qi, I have read your paper, I only ask one question, the local convergence rate of your algorithm depends on the generalized Yacobi matrix of the potential function, so how to get the local convergence speed of Q-superlinear?"
Shen Qi was shocked, and his hairstyle was a little messy.
Editor Xu's academic level in the professional field is average, but this male editor is definitely a master!
