Jiang Cheng went to his department head with a huge question mark, trying to find out whether what the girl who looked like an average student was saying was true or false.

As a result, it was clear that there was a gap between his performance and the expectations of the department head. Because the head of the department who was talking to him with a smile immediately collapsed after hearing the question he asked.

Fortunately, the director still remembered his identity, and the mentality that he couldn't be too harsh on this young man who could be regarded as leading overseas students back to China to serve the motherland, so that he could still control his emotions, and he said to Jiang Cheng in a good voice: "Oh...... You're talking about Shen Yiyi...... This girl is amazing...... Outstanding in all aspects of learning, thinking, and performance...... You're going to have to take care of her a little bit more in the future......"

Jiang Cheng saw that the head of the department did not answer his question directly, but said a bunch of things there that he didn't have, and he also felt a little wrong in his heart. He said to the head of the department: "Director, she is my student, of course I will take care of it." But I don't think I'll be able to get her a pass if she fails. She must take a make-up exam. This is a matter of principle. ”

The head of the department felt a little amused when he saw Jiang Cheng say this. Which student is this? That's Shen Yiyi. A prodigy who has been famous since middle school. And since she entered the Department of Electronics, looking at her previous grades, every teacher has also praised her learning, where will she fall to the point where she needs to be taken care of by the teacher to pass. This Jiang Cheng seems to be familiar with the previous school situation only on the surface, and does not go deep into the understanding of every student.

Therefore, the head of the department also said to Jiang Cheng seriously: "Xiao Jiang." You haven't been in school for a long time, so you don't know much about the school. I can say that Shen Yiyi, a student, will never need you to open the back door. That's why I said let you take care of her. Definitely not to ask you to help her cheat or anything. ”

Jiang Cheng asked, "Then how do you ask me to take care of her?" ”

Hearing this question, the head of the department didn't know whether to say that this Xiao Jiang was an elm head or something: "I mean, if she has any requirements for your class, you can just let her go, and you don't have to be too restrictive to her." ”

Jiang Cheng heard what the director said, and he really couldn't turn his brain. It is said that after he returned from the United States, he deliberately promoted the relaxed teaching atmosphere in American schools in his schools. So there are enough constraints on students. For example, Shen Yiyi's classmate, when he was almost late for class before, if it was the teachers when he was studying. Presumably, he would have stopped Shen Yiyi to criticize and criticize. But as Shen Yiyi's teacher, he Jiang Cheng gently let go of Shen Yiyi's classmates, and also told her not to be nervous, he would not punish her. Jiang Cheng thought that he was already very lenient with Shen Yiyi. At the same time, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with doing so. But. The director, a teacher who has been teaching in China, especially told himself not to be too strict with this classmate, which made Jiang Cheng feel a little subtle. This should not be the attitude of teachers in China in teaching. Haven't teachers in China always believed that being strict with students is responsible for them?

So Jiang Cheng felt strange at the same time, and at the same time, he also asked his own questions.

The head of the department had no choice at this time, so he had to regard it as a belated induction education for Jiang Cheng. He said to Jiang Cheng: "Xiao Jiang, you will know later." Shen Yiyi, a classmate, has a very smart brain and studies very hard. You can give her an occasional quiz during class and you'll know how she's doing. It can only be said that she has her study habits and study methods. So far, it's worked well, and the results have been good. So as teachers, we don't have to exert too much influence on her. I'm thinking about changing her study habits. Do you know? ”

Jiang Cheng saw that the head of the department said this, so he had no objection. Because he felt that what the director said made sense. Since Shen Yiyi has her own learning methods, as long as her grades can always be at the forefront, there is really no need to interfere more in her studies.

Seeing Jiang Cheng nodding and about to leave, the head of the department stopped him: "Xiao Jiang, wait a minute." Are you here to ask these things? ”

Jiang Cheng, who was stopped, only then remembered, no, what he asked before was actually whether it was true that Shen Yiyi said that she funded the school's scientific research. Why was the head of the department pulled the topic away, and I almost forgot about it?

So he walked back and asked the director, "Director, that's not right." You haven't answered my question yet. Did Shen Yiyi really fund the scientific research of many teachers in the school? ”

The head of the department nodded: "This thing is true. It's because you've only just entered the school, and you probably don't know too many teachers from various colleges. If you know them, you'll know about it from him. You know, in the past, if teachers in schools wanted to win projects, they generally focused on various scientific research plans of the country. That piece is what universities and scientific research institutes across the country are staring at, and it belongs to the state of more monks and less porridge, so there is a gap in scientific research funding in the school every year, and it is not small. However, since Shen Yiyi entered the school, the goal of those faculties is no longer just a national subject. Quite a few teachers began to pay attention to the research guidelines released by Shen Yiyi. Because those guidelines are directed to schools, the chances of success are higher, and the funds are more timely and flexible to use. ”

Jiang Cheng listened to the introduction of the head of the department with wide eyes. When he heard it, he felt amazing.

"Director, is this true? Does this Shen Yiyi really have so much money, and he also invested it in the school? Is it open to every teacher? ”

The head of the department shook his head: "It is certain that Shen Yiyi is rich. I also heard that she made a lot of money from overseas investment before, and then opened a company with someone else and made a lot of money. However, she invested money in the school, not just donation. In fact, she is doing commissioned research. It had to be a research assignment that she had posted, and someone had to undertake it to get funding. And because it was a research done with her funds. The ownership of the results is still hers. This is clearly stated in the contract. And you ask if every teacher can apply. Of course, there is no limit to the application. But the direction of research is limited. She will only invest money in areas that she is willing to invest in. ”

Jiang Cheng understood what the director meant. In fact, what Shen Yiyi did was similar to what some foreign capitalists did. The so-called scientific research grants. In fact, it is also commissioned scientific research. In fact, he just needs to figure out what Shen Yiyi said is true. As for why Shen Yiyi has so much money, he thinks that he was born with a golden spoon. He's past the angry youth who doesn't like anything. Jiang Cheng recognizes himself to accept the reality of society maturely, that is, some people are born from a higher starting point than you.

However, Jiang Cheng simply thought of Shen Yiyi as the second generation of officials or the second generation of riches, so he relied on his elders to get such a huge wealth. This is undoubtedly at odds with the facts. Shen Yiyi relied on his own ability and wisdom, and of course, he had to add a little luck to have today's wealth.

The head of the department looked at Jiang Cheng and listened to his introduction thoughtfully, and suddenly asked Jiang Cheng with a little hope: "Xiao Jiang." Tell me, what did Shen Yiyi find you for? You don't think you told us what she was here for. ”

Jiang Cheng said, "Oh. She found me. She said she wanted me to participate in one of her studies. ”

The head of the department suddenly widened his eyes: "What? Are you saying that Shen Yiyi asked you to participate in her research? That's a good thing! ”

Jiang Cheng was confused by the excited look of the department head. Is it necessary to be so excited to be so excited about inviting yourself to participate in a study?

Jiang Cheng nodded: "Yes." She said let me think about it before answering her question if I would like to participate in one of her research projects. ”

The head of the department said a little impatiently, "Then what else are you thinking about?" Say yes right away. Xiao Jiang, let me tell you. If you missed such an opportunity. That's what you really have to regret. You listen to me, hurry up to Shen Yiyi, and say that you have thought about it and are willing to participate in her project. Be sure to hold on. Otherwise, if she finds another teacher to work on, you won't have anything to do. ”

Jiang Cheng still couldn't figure out why the head of the department was so anxious to agree to Shen Yiyi's invitation. However, he still knew that the leader's words should be obediently listened to in the end. So Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Okay." I know. ”

Seeing that Jiang Cheng still didn't understand the key points in this matter, the head of the department had to think about it a little more thoroughly: "Xiao Jiang." Do you think it doesn't matter if you participate in Shen Yiyi's project or not? Anyway, you can try to apply for a national project again. This can also be awarded for participating in national projects. After that, it's all qualifications. Participating in a business project like Shen Yiyi's classmates is not his own. Nothing interesting, huh? ”

He saw Jiang Cheng nodding faintly, and then continued: "If you talk like this, you don't know the mystery at all. Let me tell you, Shen Yiyi's business project is not just a commercial project. Shen Yiyi's material support for the school's scientific research is certainly valued by the whole school, but compared with money, Shen Yiyi's insight into the development of science and technology is what everyone really values.

Because of the huge pressure on the state's scientific research funding, those small bureaucrats who manage the funds but have little understanding of technological development often choose projects that are not technically difficult but can produce results in a short period of time. The final result of those projects is either a paper or a small prototype. However, the real role it plays in the development of the country's science and technology is like scratching the itch in the boot. Because if you don't face up to the real science and technology that will make breakthroughs, and if you don't face up to the fact that it won't produce results in the short term, you won't get it. But the bureaucrats who have the money don't understand this, or for some purpose, pretend not to understand it.

Sometimes, in order to silence people's mouths, they will arrange one or two similar topics, pretending to see the key technical crux. However, the funds given are only enough to write a paper or hold a review meeting. This kind of project arrangement, it is completely a show. So you can get awards and promotions from national projects, but it is difficult to get academic improvements.

But Shen Yiyi is different. The topics she is working on are really technologies that bureaucrats don't dare to risk supporting, and they are also technologies that will affect a key point in a scientific and technological breakthrough. She won't ask for unrealistic short-term results, but she will point you to the solid progress you need. You must know that only by doing a really difficult subject can your scientific research level be improved faster, and when you really make a breakthrough, you can truly leave your own great mark in the history of science.

So Xiao Jiang, don't give up such a good opportunity. You must know that not all people can let Shen Yiyi invite him personally. I believe that she must have started a very meaningful project before she thought of finding someone to participate in it. Otherwise, the topics she invested in before would have already taken up a position in a carrot and a pit, and it would be impossible for her to come to you. You have to take advantage of the opportunity. ”

The advice of the head of the department can be described as sincere. Jiang Cheng was indeed moved by the words of the head of the department. Although what Shen Yiyi said to himself was confirmed on the one hand, the comparison between Shen Yiyi's funded projects and state-funded projects by the head of the department moved Jiang Cheng even more.

Jiang Cheng returned to China to teach, not for personal fame and fortune at all. He is to truly contribute to the country's scientific and technological progress. Of course, I didn't know much about the current situation of scientific research in China. Now with the introduction of an insider like the head of the department, Jiang Cheng really clarified the direction of the subject he wanted to participate in.

He didn't come back to China to do superficial work. He has to have the courage to take on the difficulties and rise to the occasion. The answer to choosing one's own topic based on such criteria is, of course, self-evident.

Jiang Cheng said firmly to the head of the department: "Thank you for the teaching just now. Although Shen Yiyi hadn't told me what kind of project she wanted me to participate in, I had already decided to go to her to sign up for the project immediately. (To be continued.) )
