was contemplating the façade shape of the bungalow, when the mobile phone rang suddenly, and Ning Hao's train of thought had to be interrupted. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Hey, Director Zhou? Is there something wrong with you? When the phone was answered, his tone was very polite.

"Where am I? Oh! I've been at home for the past few days! Oops, jet lag! It's hard to die! ”

"Thank you for your concern! I'll pay attention to my body! ”

"Hmm, you have to go to work? Tut-tut, I'm so sorry! I thought that during the summer vacation, the teacher could also take a proper rest...... Well, I'm really embarrassed, because I've messed up the rules of the house! ”

"I'll be here in the afternoon, by all means! Sorry, leader! ”

Hanging up the phone, Ning Hao imagined the smug smile on Zhou Jian's face when he called the other party leader.

Pack up your things, start Polo, and the destination Qingyi Academy, the director is called, Ning Hao doesn't want to be lazy.

At 3 p.m., the Institute of Artificial Intelligence, on the fourth floor of the School of Computer Science, conference room.

Zhou Jian sat in the center of the long table, facing the door of the conference room, with a heavy and huge purple sand cup in his hand.

"Ahem", he cleared his throat, straightened his body, and said, "Everyone is here, let's start!" ”

"Today is the summer vacation, such a hot day, to bring everyone together, in order to promote the most important work in our institute, as you know, last year I took the lead in the Municipal Science and Technology Commission to apply for a scientific and technological research project, this project as the focus of our work this year, according to the tone set before, our capable forces have basically been voted over! In addition to the old professor and the two associate professors, all the lecturers and postdocs are in our project team! ”

"Let's talk about the current progress of the work! In clockwise order, Mr. Zhong, you say it first! Zhou Jian leaned back on the chair and looked at a slightly chubby middle-aged woman at the end of the table.

Mr. Zhong wears thick myopic glasses, cuts the student's head, and washes it very cleanly, because he has been baptized by electromagnetic waves in front of the computer for many years, and he is not good at maintenance, so his facial skin is dull and old.

At the beginning of the meeting, she buried herself in writing in a notebook, trying to record everyone's every word word for word.

Hearing Zhou Jian call her name, she raised her head: "The literature search assigned to me is almost complete, and I am now doing translation, and the two students I originally brought are now helping Director Zhou do experiments, so the translation is doing it myself, a little slow......"

"Teacher Zhong, hurry up! By mid-August, be sure to complete all the literature searches and translations! If there are difficulties, let's overcome them! As you know, there aren't enough people in the office! Zhou Jian frowned slightly.

Teacher Zhong nodded and continued to write the director's quotations in the notebook.

Next up was a young lecturer in his thirties.

Ordinary, this is all Ning Hao's impression of him, ordinary appearance, ordinary height, ordinary clothes, ordinary speech, such a person, put in the pile, absolutely unrecognizable at a glance.

His speed and tone of voice were also extremely ordinary: "The algorithm I am responsible for is halfway through, and according to Professor Zhou's arrangement last time, there should be no problem in releasing the results of my section in mid-August." ”

"Hmm! Good! Zeng Tong, you just hurry up! Next! Zhou Jian's attitude towards this ordinary lecturer is also very ordinary.

You have a relationship with Tongzi, Ning Hao laughed happily in his heart.

"I'm here," a slightly sharper voice took the initiative to say, "Two graduate students, dial one to our director Zhou, I have another one, manpower is definitely not enough, but the director said, overcome difficulties, so although it is very difficult now, I still take the director of the project as the top priority, I and my students, every day is to first engage in the director of the project, and then squeeze out time, and then attack our own project, after all, manpower is difficult!" ”

He spoke in one go, with a subdued tone and a bit of a foreign accent.

Ning Hao looked at the person who spoke with interest, a lean middle-aged man with hairspray spray on his head, quite particular, he revealed dissatisfaction in and out of his words, and emphasized many times that this project was Zhou Jiandi.

"Teacher Hong, you see that you are making trouble again! How could this project be mine alone? Yes, the first signature on the paper will be me, but isn't that a last resort to meet the requirements of the project declaration? The lead must be the first author! Everybody's in it for the honor, isn't it? "Zhou Jian is not stupid.

"Yes! Professor Zhou is right! I have no opinion! Eh, do you hear my opinion? "When Mr. Hong speaks, it's like a machine gun.

No one accosted him, so the topic stopped, and others spoke one after another.

Ning Hao judged that the only three lecturers in the institute were Zhong, Zeng, and Hong, and two other postdoctoral fellows, and Zhou Jian was the only professor currently on the job, and they formed a project team.

I heard that there is an old professor who has retired and rehired in the institute, and Zhou Jian does not dare to call people to come immediately. Two other associate professors did not join the project team.

At the end, the director concluded: "After the exchange just now, I am very worried that if everyone continues to work on the project in the current state, the result will definitely be quite different from my expectations!" Barrel theory, you know? The success of the project is not determined by the best people, but by the worst plank! ”

When it came to the barrel theory, Zhou Jian raised his eyebrows slightly, a little proud.

"So, that's why I'm asking everyone to stick to work during the summer vacation! Can't be lazy! We can't let others look down on us and say that we are scattered! The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, his fingers matching his tone, tapping on the table.

Then, he said a little politely: "So, our returnee teacher Niu Ning is not used to it, right?" Teacher Ning! ”

Ning Hao perked up and responded: "It's me who didn't figure it out!" ”

"Well, Mr. Ning, you see, our institute is full of elite soldiers, and the scientific research atmosphere is very strong, everyone works hard together, you three associate professors, it will be a matter of time before you are promoted to professor!" Zhou Jian blew the tea leaves floating in the cup, full of confidence.

After taking a sip of tea, he got up and said, "Okay, let's all go get busy!" Hurry! Teacher Ning, wait a minute, let's discuss and see if you can participate in my project! ”

Ning Hao consciously sat down next to Zhou Jian, and without waiting for him to speak, he spoke first: "Professor Zhou, I just want to find you!" Yesterday I received a call from a friend of the Future Technology Laboratory in France, you know, the lab is very stubborn, it never publishes papers in English, only in French journals, so the attention to them in China has not been very high. ”

Zhou Jian looked at him in a daze.

Ning Hao's expression relaxed, and he said lightly: "Do you say it's a coincidence? My friend knew that I had arrived at Qingyi College, so he paid attention to it, and he found a miraculous thing, saying that there was a paper in a core journal in China, and the content was strikingly similar to one of their French papers! The author of the domestic paper is you! You see, is it a coincidence? ”

Then, with some embarrassment, he continued: "Actually, I always feel that I am a little unlucky! I've talked to several tutors whose papers have been plagiarized by others! I guess some low-level gringo copied your article! You see that I have just arrived under your hands, and I hope it doesn't bring you bad luck! Take a look at it, if they really copy it, let's be ready to fight back against them, we can't get used to these people messing around! ”

Of course, Zhou Jian was not confused, his face was red for a while, white for a while, and said stupidly: "Ah? I'll have time to check it out, won't I......"

"Oh, by the way, you just said that you want to arrange work, as an associate professor, the work assigned to me by the institute according to the normal procedures must be of quality and quantity! Big classes and small classes, never treat students badly! We will also publish research results on a regular basis to add luster to the institute! As for your project, how do you arrange it? ”

Listening to Ning Hao's illogical statement, looking at his handsome face, Zhou Jian had countless wild horses roaring past in his heart.

After a while, he whispered: "Oh, in fact, so many colleagues in the institute help, I don't need to add people to that project!" Talents like Mr. Ning should not be set on these small projects, if you are busy, the project will not be taken care of! Dean Zhang also said hello, saying that there is no need to force Teacher Ning to take classes during the holidays! ”

"Oh! Thank you, Professor! Don't worry, I will do my best to teach and research! Ning Hao sincerely stated.

Walking out of the door of the conference room, Ning Hao recalled the more than ten plagiarized papers of Zhou Jian that he had found, and said to himself silently: Let's do this first!
