Chapter 1522: Incredible
After about a minute or two, I heard a sudden exhalation from the other end of the phone, and the old gentleman seemed to react, and smiled: "The society you said, I know, and I will participate in it when the time comes." ”
"Okay, okay, we'll send you the details of your participation in the box later. After getting the confirmation, Ye Xing put down the phone.
Liu Yan on the other side looked like a ghost, and they all said that this old man had a ridiculous temper, but he felt that he didn't have any temper, and he agreed to Ye Xing to come to the academic conference so easily? Is it because he just woke up and hasn't reflected what Ye Xing is talking about?!
Although she felt a little incredible, Liu Yan quickly sent the information about the academic seminar, and the old gentleman even replied to the email, saying that he would definitely participate on time.
With Ye Xing's good start, Ye Yixue volunteered to make a second call.
She deliberately chose an old expert with more status than Jin Qizhang, and wanted to try to challenge the difficulty, but after a phone call, the other party didn't have much reaction at first, but after listening to Ye Yixue's introduction, she said that she would definitely participate on time.
Liu Yan was a little dumbfounded, has it become so simple to invite old gentlemen to the meeting now?
So she didn't believe in evil, so she called in person, and this time the invited person was an old expert who had not appeared in any academic symposium for seven or eight years.
"Mr. Wang Renyu, we would like to invite you to this year's National Colloquium on History and Religion. ”
Before he finished speaking, there was a laugh from the other side, followed by the voice of an old man who was full of energy: "Okay, little girl, I will definitely go to participate when the time comes." ”
Putting down the phone, Liu Yan pinched herself in disbelief.
"This is no longer a monodisciplinary seminar, and these old gentlemen are not simple historians and religious scholars, but some of them are sociologists and some anthropologists. They are all big names in various fields. ”
"It seems that our school really has a face. Ye Xing said indifferently. For him, it doesn't matter who comes or doesn't come.
"I don't believe it, unless the old gentleman agrees too. Liu Yan found a phone number in the contact book, this old gentleman is definitely one of the best in the academic world of Chinese history, but all the books published by his old man are all must-read books for historical researchers, and the old man is now over eighty years old, and has basically quit the academic world, Liu Yan doesn't believe that their school can move.
However, it turned out that Liu Yan's idea was completely wrong, and after a phone call, the old man immediately said in person that he would come to this meeting.
After an afternoon, Liu Yan felt as if she had arrived in another world.
Although Huaihai University is the first regular university in Huaihai City, there is still a certain gap compared with Tsinghua University and Peking University, these old professors, old experts, and old scholars are very high in academic status, and they may not even go to Tsinghua University and Peking University's invitation, but they did not expect to agree to their invitation.
An academic conference may be a very simple thing for the participants, after all, they only need to simply present their results. However, for the organizers, the work behind the event is the most complicated.
The seminar held by Huaihai University was mainly aimed at history, so most of the work naturally fell on the teachers and professors of the history department.
But there are not many teachers in the history department, and most of the professors are already sixty years old except for Ye Xing, so they can't do anything at all. So the burden could only fall on the only few teachers and Ye Xing, and even many students were appointed as greetings.
Among them is Ye Yixue.
Although the job is not easy, it is a very valuable opportunity for students of the School of History, and most people cannot envy it.
Because this academic seminar is full of celebrities in the circle, it is of great benefit to be able to meet them in advance for further study in the future.
The busiest among all the people is Liu Yan.
Isn't there a saying that with great power comes great responsibility?
Don't look at Liu Yancai not long after becoming a teacher, but after all, she has been the president of the student union, and her leadership and communication skills are stronger than many teachers. As a result, a lot of work that teachers can't do falls on her shoulders, such as the work of booking tickets.
The seminar was held by Huaihai University, and the invitation letter was also sent by Huaihai University.
Therefore, the school has to book air or train tickets for these experts and scholars from all over the world.
Originally, this work was not Liu Yan's responsibility, but another teacher from the School of History was in charge, but by coincidence, the other party caught a cold, so he handed over the ticket booking work to the students. Most of the students in the School of History have a good relationship with Liu Yan, so after booking the tickets, they naturally handed them over to Liu Yan.
It was impossible for Liu Yan to collect the information on the booking of the tickets, she still had to check, and it would take more than half a day just to check these tickets.
And after checking, it doesn't count, there are always students who make mistakes, and once the mistake is found, Liu Yan has to refund the ticket and rebook.
In addition to booking tickets, Liu Yan is also busy sorting out.
Because it is an academic discussion, the invited experts and scholars inform Huaihai University of the results of their research in advance, so that Huaihai University can make arrangements in advance. Some of the research results of experts, as well as some recommended students, published some discussion issues, these manuscripts cannot be put together, they must be classified, otherwise they will be messed up.
With that done, it's time to arrange the binding of the conference papers.
She needs to be present in person, check them one by one, and after everything is done, she has to arrange various conference rooms, because this kind of academic discussion and research meeting does not end in one day, so it is different when and in which conference room, whether it is a small student seminar or a large presentation of results.
In addition to the above, in the end, Liu Yan also had to think about where to take these experts and scholars to visit after the conference, after all, she can't always have meetings and visit schools all day. People come from afar, at least take them to feel the local culture.
It's not tiring, it's just a bit brain-draining.
Although there are a lot of places of interest in Huaihai City, but these are quite famous experts and scholars, what the market has not seen, even if they are the first time to come to Huaihai University, it does not mean that they have not been to Huaihai City, those particularly famous attractions everyone must have seen, if you go again, I am afraid that some people will feel very bored.
Liu Yan thought about it for an afternoon, she couldn't go to a place that was too famous, and she couldn't go to a place that wasn't famous, so she couldn't take these scholars to visit the garden downstairs in her community!
In the end, Liu Yan really didn't know where to go, so she simply called Ye Xing to help with the reference, but Ye Yixue, who didn't expect it, also followed.
