Chapter 22: Refusal
Wang Ning didn't think it was a good thing for Mo Wenyuan to find him at the beginning, even if he got good news from Mo Wenyuan.
His talents, or the talents he showed, were noticed by the school, which gave him a good privilege in one fell swoop. And this privilege can't hide his unhappiness after hearing the second news, Mo Wenyuan actually wants to be his teacher!
What is Teacher? Naturally, like the teacher in the school, the relationship between the individual teacher should be closer and stronger, and the students can learn from the teacher what is impossible to teach in the school. Therefore, this kind of teacher should not only teach students knowledge, but also give them some guidance in life.
More importantly, once a strong teacher-student relationship is established, students can tap into the power of their teachers' connections and thus gain more opportunities. This is the most important rule between teachers and students, and this rule has always existed since ancient times.
It is precisely because students can grow with the help of the teacher's strength and the teacher's connections that there is a saying that the teacher is the second father of the student.
Modern society is naturally not the same as in ancient times, and if you recognize a teacher, you will have a father. This is unrealistic, after all, the relationship between teachers and students in modern times is far from being comparable to that of ancient times.
Even so, the serious teacher-student relationship is still the most intimate layer outside of the family relationship. In the eyes of others, even if he is the spokesperson and heir of the teacher, he is also inheriting the teacher's connections and honor.
Whether it's academia or science, or any industry, the whole world follows the rules of seniority. An old man will always have more resources than a newcomer, and the same is true of academia.
No matter how important the topic, no matter how grand the research, it is very difficult for a newcomer to gain the approval of others. Especially in the academic world, where seniority is strictly prioritized, between an old professor and a young professor, many people will choose to believe in the old professor.
The level of professors, not to mention the contrast between professors and students, is simply heaven and earth. Many gifted students are eliminated without even having the qualifications to speak, and if they want to prove their own opinions and theories, wait for more than ten years.
Many seemingly high-end research inventions, some of which were called great, epoch-making or life-changing by later generations, encountered this kind of problem in the early days of the creation of Zào. It is not uncommon for their inventions and discoveries to be rediscovered after years or even decades of hiding, proving their greatness.
At this time, the power of the teacher is needed. With the help of the teacher's connections and status, young scholars can have the opportunity to speak. Whether it will be recognized or not, whether it will be questioned or not, whether it is qualified to speak is too important.
One of the most important benefits between teachers and students in academia is that they can use the aura of a teacher to give themselves a chance to speak, which is a very important opportunity. Not to mention that there are important journals, papers and the like, with the teacher's name in front, the chances of getting through guò will be greatly increased.
It is precisely because of the many benefits of having a teacher that there is a tradition of recognizing teachers in academia as well as in science.
After mixing in the education and academic circles for such a long time, Mo Wenyuan naturally has his own network of contacts and relationships, although these networks are not huge, they are far from being comparable to a student. Recognizing the other party as a teacher does not seem to have any disadvantages, and the complete advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Only Wang Ning himself knows that there is no so-called glory and flatness behind this mention yì, but there is a hidden murderous intention.
Wang Ning was already sure in his heart that Mo Wenyuan didn't want to be his teacher for the sake of his growth at all, but needed to use the name of the teacher to take out the first conjecture of Wei Gelie in his pocket, and when the time came, he would be swept away. The conjecture that he took out would become a stepping stone for Mo Wenyuan to step into the hall of flowers and honor.
This is not Wang Ning's malicious speculation, when he searched for Mo Wenyuan in his super brain, the first thing that jumped out was not the specific growth information of the other party, but a news five years later, Mo Wenyuan's encroachment on student research.
Like him now, five years later, a gifted student came to Yulan University, who had studied four years of university courses on his own in just six months and proposed an important research direction, along which some of the most difficult mysteries in mathematics had some clues to be solved.
This speculation was not taken seriously at first, and many professors thought it was just a frivolous conjecture of students. But Mo Wenyuan saw the value of this guess, so he directly accepted the student as his subordinate.
That student naturally didn't know Mo Wenyuan's thoughts, and it was naturally a pleasant thing for a student to become the head of the mathematics department, so he agreed very comfortably. After this, he had more resources to conduct research. Half a year later, one of the most important speculations in mathematics was finally found, and almost most of the mathematical models were verified.
The student immediately began to write his dissertation, and the discovery of mathematics was enough for him many honors and a bright future.
It was at this time that the student suddenly got into a troublesome matter. A woman suddenly ran to the school and said she had the student's child.
Young people are fun, that student was also in this age at the time, coupled with good family conditions, he naturally has women around him. The slightest mistake could have resulted in death, and the student was not sure if what the girl said was true. So, I had to appease her first and discuss how to solve the matter.
I guess that the student would not have thought that this was just the beginning of the trouble. The girl's classmates, friends, and family members appeared in front of him, some clamoring to beat him, some asking him to lose money, and some asking them to get married.
I am about to have such a bright future, and I am still so young, it is naturally impossible to get married. The student refused very directly, and was eventually beaten up by the girl's parents. Accidentally, the student was pushed down the steps and broke his calf bone.
This kind of thing happened, especially when the parents of the girls came to the school to make trouble. The school was under pressure to give the student a year off. In this case, the student naturally could not continue to write the paper, so he discussed with Mo Wenyuan to let him ghostwrite. Let the teacher Mo Wenyuan be the first author, and he himself will take a step back and become the second author.
Mo Wenyuan refused several times, but then reluctantly agreed. A few days later, he came up with a nice paper with his and the student's names on it.
