Sixty-five, Zhang Yuanheng's struggle (II)
suffered two setbacks in a row, even if the skin was as thick as Zhang Yuanheng, it took a long time to barely recover.
But admitting defeat is by no means Zhang Yuanheng's style. As he wandered aimlessly around campus, he pondered what to do next: the astronomy department had already found someone to look for, and it didn't work out at all. Do you have to go directly to the principal and vice principal, as I said before?
Zhang Yuanheng immediately vetoed the idea. In a mere astronomy department, the guards are like thieves, guarding the office building so that they can't get into the water, and the president's office building will definitely not be able to enter.
Do you want to be like those civil sciences, squatting at the door of the astronomy department to set up a stall?
Just when he turned back and forth in his stomach, he unconsciously came to a secluded place, only to see the surrounding pines and cypresses, bamboo and wood, only the roadside sign read: Mid-mountain Ju West Gate, from this forward 1300 meters.
Isn't it the legendary academician building?
Zhang Yuanheng suddenly thought about it: I went to the office building of the Department of Astronomy before, but I didn't find anyone. I went to the teaching building and pounced on it again. Then why don't I go to the gate of the half-mountain residence and wait for the rabbits? Just now, the level of those rotten sweet potatoes and stinky bird eggs was so poor that I actually had eyes that I didn't know Mount Tai, and I think that only academician-level bulls can see pearls. An outstanding aspiring young man like me walks in the crowd like a firefly in the dark night, so vivid and eye-catching, and the academician will definitely be able to discover my existence at a glance! Then the academician specially recruited me to Jingshi University, accepted me as the successor of the mantle, received a bachelor's degree, stayed in the school to teach, became a professor in the thirties, married Bai Fumei, and embarked on the pinnacle of life. It's a little exciting to think about it!
Thinking to himself, he also quickened his pace.
There are still three or five hundred meters away from the half-mountain residence, and I saw a white-haired old man walking towards him, only to see that he walked steadily, in good spirits, with a modest and charitable smile on his face, and a crisp black suit and light gray and white striped tie revealed an elegant and wise atmosphere. Zhang Yuanheng was overjoyed: Could it be that my opportunity has come?
At that moment, he tried hard to stretch his height, tidied up his suit, showed a sweet and well-behaved smile on his face, and walked a few steps forward to greet: "Hello sir!"
"Good, good!" the old man smiled and nodded, "The young man looks so energetic and polite, not bad, not bad." ā
Zhang Yuanheng immediately saw the rod and went up: "Sir, are you alone? It's freezing and the ground is slippery, what should I do if there is a mistake? If you don't dislike it, I'll accompany you for a walk." It just so happens that I have just finished the business at hand, and now I am relatively free. ā
The old man replied, "Yes, I like to walk with you young people, and I can feel the vigor and high spirit of your young people." I think when I was younger, I was like you guys, I liked to run around and jump around. Not anymore, I'm getting older, so I can only walk around my home. This is a trivial matter, and I don't want to trouble the secretary and the staff around me. ā
If you live around here, isn't that a mid-level residence?
And the secretary and the staff? What does that have to be?
Opportunities are indeed reserved for those who are prepared!
Zhang Yuanheng's attitude became more and more respectful, and at the same time, he tried his best to search for good words in his stomach: "Sir, you are so low-key and simple, and you are willing to think about others, you can really be called a model teacher and a model scholar! I have seen some scholars, whose titles are not very big and their level is not very high, but they can't wait to raise their chins to the sky all day long, and when they go out, they will have luxury cars, and they will enter luxury houses, and their entourage will be like clouds and beautiful women will be like rain. Compared to your glorious bearing, it is like a world of earth!"
The old man's praise for Zhang Yuanheng seemed to be very useful, and his face was full of smiles. It took a long time to ask in a concerned tone: "Young man, look at you like a foreign colonel." Are you here for a lecture or a seminar?"
The test is coming!
Zhang Yuanheng modestly replied: "My name is Zhang Yuanheng, I am from Shudi Jiazhou Middle School, because I have successfully searched and found 9 asteroids, and 3 independently written papers have been published in international professional academic journals, including "EXPERIMENTAL_ASTRONOMY" with an impact factor of 2.3, I am fortunate to be qualified to be sent to Jingshi University, so I came to participate in the workshop. ā
As he spoke, he respectfully handed over the few magazines that had not been sent out just now to the old man for a look. The old man flipped through it casually, then nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you can publish papers in international academic journals at a young age, and you have great academic potential!"
Although Zhang Yuanheng was very surprised that he had turned to his papers and asserted that he was "good" and "had academic potential", he still did not forget to give himself extra points at the moment: "Thank you, sir, for the compliment! Although I am only a high school student, I have been obsessed with astronomy since I was a child, and I will use the professional equipment I bought to make astronomical observations every night, and I have also taught myself a lot of related mathematics and physics knowledge in advance. In January of this year, he joined the Shu Astronomical Society as a high school student and became the youngest member of the society. ā
The old man said again and again: "Very good! Very good! Jingshi University needs excellent academic seedlings like you!"
Zhang Yuanheng was overjoyed, and was about to meet the poor dagger, when the old man's attitude suddenly became serious: "Young man, although you are smart and precocious, and have great prospects, you must pay attention to learning methods. If the method is not right, the hard work will be fruitless, and it will easily become the Fang Zhongyong in the story!"
Zhang Yuanheng immediately listened to it: "Please give me advice!"
The old man said: "Now young people are superstitious about Zeng Wenzhenggong's words, saying that 'teenagers are like grabbing the ground', blindly greedy for more and faster, always hoping to read more books while they are young, and then slowly reminisce and chew later." I don't know if this applies to liberal arts, but it is definitely wrong for us to study science and engineering and engage in research!"
"Oh?"
The old man continued: "When I was a child, I grew up in a remote rural area, and my family background was not good, and the learning environment and conditions were quite poor, and I couldn't find a decent reference book. Later, after studying hard, I finally got out of the way and was admitted to college, and when I went to college, I found that there were so many in the library, so I couldn't wait to read it, and I invisibly formed a bad habit - greed. ā
"And then?"
"If you have studied advanced mathematics, you should know that there are many derivations in mathematics and physics, which are quite tedious and difficult to understand, and you need to be patient to deduce step by step. But in order to be fast, I was unwilling to seriously push it myself, so I quickly finished reading the book. After reading the book, it seems that you know a lot on the surface, but you will soon forget. When you need to use it to solve a problem, you have to start all over again, and you have to learn it step by step. In other words, greed for more and faster seems to be very efficient, but in fact, it has taken the wrong road!"
"Really?"
"Of course, if we engage in research and do academics, and keep up with the forefront of the world's science and technology, we need to come into contact with a large number of books, documents and materials, which belong to the category of extensive reading. However, things that are closely related to the work you are engaged in must be studied carefully and step by step, and you must not be greedy, so that your work is like a castle in the air without a foundation and may collapse at any time. Especially for the content of mathematics and physics, chemical engineering, etc., we must experience it with our hearts, analyze it with our brains, and we must not be afraid of trouble to deduce and deduce it step by step. Only in this way can we learn and understand knowledge, discover and raise problems, and grasp the ins and outs, solutions, and development trends, so as to carry out our own creative work and climb to new heights along the ladder of science. ā
"That's right!" Zhang Yuanheng felt that if he continued to listen to it like this, he would soon become a joke in cross talk, so he hurriedly took advantage of the old man's ventilation time to ask: "Sir, your profound and transparent thoughts, wise and witty words, and commanding points from a high position have made the younger generations suddenly open up and benefit for life." It's just that the younger generation is ignorant and hasn't asked your old Gao surname yet?"
The old man did a Tai Chi: "You eat an egg and think it tastes good, so why do you need to know the hen that lays the egg?"
Zhang Yuanheng didn't give up, and asked again: "Then you should always be an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, right?"
"Haha, it's just a name. ā
Just when Zhang Yuanheng was searching his intestines and thinking about how to impress the great god in front of him, a loud shout suddenly came from behind him: "Old Li Tou, what are you doing there?"
The loud voice and fierce attitude not only scared Zhang Yuanheng, but the old man known as "Lao Li Tou" was also scared to the neck, and his original calm and elegant temperament disappeared without a trace. After a long time, he turned his head to look at the menacing security guard, and replied sneeringly: "I am guiding this child's academic experience and learning methods." Why?
"Mentor fart! You are an elementary school teacher who has never gone to college, and you have a hairy academic experience? Hurry up and let me see you again, believe it or not, I will send you to prison, and let you go to the number to instruct others to learn methods!"
"Send me to a prison cell?
"Why? With the Criminal Law!" The security guard triumphantly took out a book from his body and read it word by word: "Article 279 of the 'Criminal Law' stipulates that a person who pretends to be a staff member of a state organ to swindle and deceive shall be guilty of the crime of swindling and deception and shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, short-term detention or controlled release, and if the circumstances are serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than 10 years." How dare you pretend to be a professor at Jingshi University and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is it enough to send in and drink a pot?"
"Me!"
"Don't get out of here!"
Old Li ran away in a gloomy manner. Zhang Yuanheng watched the farce in front of him dumbfounded, and then asked in disbelief: "Is he?"
Only then did the security guard put away his fierce appearance and explained: "You say Lao Li Tou? He is an elementary school teacher in the county around the capital, and he doesn't know what to think, so he can't stay at home well after retirement, so he wants to come to our Jingshi University to pretend to be a big-tailed donkey, saying that he is a professor and academician, and coaxing those who don't know the details to play." Fortunately, he is just having a good time, he doesn't make money, he doesn't cheat, otherwise he would have been arrested a long time ago!"
"Look, he doesn't speak like he'sā"
"Doesn't look like a liar?" the security guard shook his head, "and a liar won't have a word engraved on his face." On the contrary, the more liars are, the more they pretend to be real. Like Lao Li Tou, there are thousands of biographies of all kinds of scientists in his family from ancient times to the present, from home to abroad, and the clothes on his body and the hairstyle on his head are all specially taken care of according to the appearance of school professors.
Zhang Yuanheng visited the battle for the third time and failed!
