Chapter Eighty-Four: Uncomfortable

"You can rest assured, miners are very normal terrestrial creatures, and they just do quantitative modeling, which is usually Stochastic Calculus and Statistical Learning.

Before 2000, random calculus was the only important method of financial research, and our Stanford professor Kenneth won the Nobel Prize for his research. (Note 1)

In recent years, statistical learning has slowly become mainstream. Statistical learning is mainly big data and machine learning.

Most of them have been solved by computer programming, and the amount of manual calculations has become less and less. Qi Yi made a relatively detailed introduction.

"You still learned computer programming?" Yan Yun hadn't heard Qi Yi mention this matter before.

"In Stanford, even if you are a liberal arts student, you can also learn programming, after all, it is a school in Silicon Valley, and if you don't learn some programming, the whole college life will feel incomplete. Qi Yi smiled very gently, today's Yan Yun had already made a fuss about the whole hamburger time.

"I decided. After Yan Yun said this, he turned his head to his burger.

"What to decide?" Qi Yi didn't know where Yan Yun suddenly wanted to take the topic.

"I decided to eat my burger well, and I will never study your position in the investment bank of Huajie again, and after studying for a long time, I still don't know anything. Only food can relieve the depression in Yan Yun's heart at this time.

"That's because you're using the wrong method. Qi also objected to Yan Yun's words.

"What's wrong?" Yan Yun didn't know.

"If you hadn't called your cousin and asked me directly, you would have figured it out a long time ago. This sentence is Qi Yi's "concluding statement" on the issue of position.

"Oh~ So you're eating this kind of vinegar?" Yan Yun wanted to give Qi Yi a roll of his eyes.

"Your grandfather likes to drink some vinegar when he's old, isn't it?" Qi Yi said about his grandfather, but his tone was full of childishness.

"I really convinced you, I didn't take the initiative to call, I was forced by my aunt.

My aunt asked me to persuade my cousin to hurry back to China, and then I asked about these things by the way.

Actually~ you should think the other way around. Yan Yun said to Qi Yi in a somewhat playful tone.

"What's the opposite?" Qi Yi waved Yan Yun's hand that was grabbed by him, and kept the same posture all the time, making Yan Yun's hands sore for a while.

"You should think that even if I was forced to call my cousin, the content of the conversation was still about you~" Yan Yun winked at Qi Yi.

"Uh, why am I always abused by you and don't know how to respond?" Qi Yi said, but the happy smile on his face was revealed.

"Cut, learn me to speak again. Didn't you say before that you want to learn from me because you can't see each other?" Yan Yun's face was full of contempt.

"When we met, I was so happy that I couldn't remember what I had said before. I just like to learn from you to speak~" Qi Yi felt that even if Yan Yun put on a contemptuous expression, he was very cute.

After eating Shake Shack, Qi also sent Yan Yun to check in at the Conrad Hotel on Wall Street.

Before the hotel arrived, something happened that made Qi Yi particularly depressed and somewhat humiliating.

Qi Yi talked to Yan Yun for a long time about Shake Shack, and took Yan Yun to the store on Eighth Avenue for such a long time.

As a result, Battery Park City (BPC, Bartley Park), home to Conrad New York, has a new Shake Shack branch. (Note 2)

However, because this store is so new, it has only been open for less than a month (it opened on May 31, 2011), so it is impossible for Antonio, a "hot dog maniac" who has been in Stanford, to know to take Qi Yi to this new store to eat.

When Qi Yi asked Ian and his two assistants on the helicopter today what restaurants in New York were better, they didn't ask about a restaurant of the burger level at all.

Even if it's three times the price of a McDonald's burger, that's just a few dollars a burger.

Qi Yi's original plan, even if he didn't take Yan Yun to a candlelight dinner, at least he would go to a more decent high-end restaurant.

Just when Qi Yi was depressed and wanted to wait for how to face Yan Yun's questioning, Yan Yun had already seen BPC's Shake Shack and asked:

"Eh, why is there a Shake Shack here? And there's no queue anymore. Is this burger joint different from McDonald's, the chef of each restaurant is a very important role, and if the chef is different, the taste is different. It's a bit similar to the Nando's I took you to eat before?"

"Probably. Qi Yi felt ashamed, and Yan Yun helped him find an explanation that he couldn't even think of.

When Qi Yi answered "maybe", he was actually very weak-minded.

He ate Shake Shack twice, both of which were the Eighth Avenue one, and there was no say without comparison.

Qi Yi was originally ready to be counted down by Yan Yun, and he actually didn't mind Yan Yun's counting.

What made Qi Yi depressed was not the number itself.

If Qi Yi knew that there was also a Shake Shack here, he would take Yan Yun directly and come over to eat after checking in.

This can not only save a lot of time on the road, but also allow Yan Yun, who has just gotten off the plane, to go back to the hotel to clean up and rest for a while.

Qi Yi's frustration is that his food strategy is really not in place.

Next, he had to redouble his efforts to help Yan Yun make a food map of New York.

Qi Yi's self-blame was actually a bit too much, firstly, he himself had just arrived in New York, and secondly, Yan Yun was a surprise attack, and he did not tell Qi Yi that he was coming.

…………………………

Check-in is a very simple thing, but things start to get less simple after check-in.

The last time Yan Yun went to the hotel of the Crown Casino in Melbourne to find Qi Yi, the two were still "high school classmates", and at most they were "ex" relationships.

This time, Qi Yi sent Yan Yun to check in, and the relationship between the two has changed from "ex" back to the present.

It was impossible for Qi not to send Yan Yun to the room.

But when I got to the room, the atmosphere started to get a little awkward.

Qi Yi and Yan Yun are two innocent "children" who have been in love for a year in high school and have never even held hands.

The beauty of ten fingers interlocking, Qi Yi has only experienced it for two days.

Of course, Qi Yi knew that now was not the time for him to cross the bottom line.

But before the bottom line, there are still a lot of things that should be done in high school, and he hasn't done it yet.

After Qi Yi arrived at Yan Yun's room, there was no place on his body where he felt comfortable.

Note 1:

Kenneth passed away in early 2017.

He won the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1972 for his use of a new mathematical model to explore the "General Equilibrium Theory", and is still the youngest Nobel laureate in economics in history.

Note 2:

In addition to the regular menu, BPC's Shake Shack also has three single-store exclusive menus: all-nut street, Loer est side and Donton Butter Bron.

It's close to Wall Street, and there are more gimmicks.
