Chapter 527: The Foundation Is Not Charity

After the official start of school, the biggest change was that Shen Yi had an intersection with the boys in the class at the beginning. There are multiple reasons for this. The change in the curriculum of the school in the third year is also one of the main reasons.

The freshman and sophomore years are mainly basic courses. The basic course is still based on the inculcation of knowledge. How much the student listens to during the class depends on the individual's ability to absorb it. So at that time, Shen Yiyi played the role of a lone ranger. She doesn't need to have anything to do with her classmates, she can also learn her courses well, and at the same time, she can defend her reputation as a prodigy at the end of the final assessment.

In the third year, in addition to starting professional classes, the school reminded students to start preparing papers in advance. Because there are no classes at all, the time for students to write papers is only the last half of the senior year. At that time, everyone should have not found a job and are in a hurry to find a way, and if you find a job, you should start going to work early. At that time, the graduation thesis was already a pure grade, and there was no quality to talk about. And such a paper is obviously a "scum" paper that cannot reflect the level of Tsinghua University in the eyes of the teachers in the school. In the past few years, teachers at Tsinghua University have reflected on the previous arrangement of starting to write graduation theses in the fourth year.

Therefore, from the beginning of the third year, the teacher will ask the students to start thinking about their own thesis topics from now on, and discuss the structure and basis of their thesis. However, at this time, the school did not have a special curriculum to teach students what kind of graduation thesis is qualified. The only way for students to learn is to think about how to write their own essays. In such a situation, students themselves often have doubts when thinking. When in doubt, it is very important to communicate and discuss with each other.

The school's leaders have inadvertently practiced Western-style open teaching.

Tsinghua students have a good background. They can also find some inspiration for their own writing in the excellent graduation theses of previous graduates in the school library. However, the importance of choosing a topic for an undergraduate student's graduation thesis is self-evident. After all, there is a limit to the resources available for undergraduate dissertations. Time is also limited. It is better to wait until the master's and doctoral students' level to study the topics that are too ambitious and difficult. But where can students who have not undergone complete thesis training have such awareness? Fortunately, they spontaneously formed a group and found a classroom after school to discuss the thesis.

Shen Yiyi is an experienced person. In her previous life, she could be regarded as having written a lot of papers, large and small. It is precisely because she became a member of this group that after the initial discomfort, the third-year students of the Department of Electronics at Tsinghua University were able to find the "spectrum" of writing their papers by themselves.

Of course, Shen Yiyi became a member of the group. It was also due to the invitation of the students.

After the patent of the course results, those boys did feel that the relationship between themselves and Shen Yiyi seemed to be closer. This is a Foundation person, and to some extent, it can be said that it can be said that it is a person in a boat. So. They also invited Liu Yihao, who seemed to have a good relationship with Shen Yiyi, as a representative, and invited Shen Yiyi to join a team formed by everyone to prepare the thesis. In fact, they are still very superstitious about Shen Yiyi's mind. This myth of admission is widely spread on campus, and Shen Yiyi's continued position at the top of the grade list after admission also proves her strength. The students believe that with the addition of Shen Yiyi and Liu Yihao, two of the best masters in the class. Same as when the course was designed. Their graduation project will definitely create a legend for Tsinghua University's undergraduate thesis.

For everyone's trust, Shen Yiyi can't ask for it. She has always wanted to envelop these rare talents around her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have to figure out how to make a fund as a connection between them. Now that she has this opportunity, of course she agrees. Even if it wasn't Liu Yihao, but any other classmate, she wouldn't say no.

Moreover, because everyone discussed the paper together, she would not go back to the dormitory too early to find herself bored. Because now there is a person in the dormitory who somehow opposes him, and he is a little awkward to get along.

It is also because everyone began to discuss how to write various papers. The enthusiasm is very high, which directly leads to the recent actions of the big guys are relatively consistent. For example, go to dinner together. Let's go to the library or something. The boys also played less often. Because to reserve more time for brainstorming.

Of course, somewhere Shen Yiyi didn't know, she was also recorded again.

When discussing topics with everyone, Shen Yiyi seemed to have returned to the time when he was involved in the big projects before. For example, when I was doing paramotor in Shenyang. Another example is when I completed that coursework with everyone before. This collision of sparks of wisdom made her feel very energetic. In contrast, the design of the self-propelled balance bike is more like an imitation project that she has contracted, and there is no creativity that excites her.

In the initial discussion, everyone had a whimsical idea of the topic of their paper. Shen Yiyi felt that some of the ideas were still very creative. And a few of them really represent the future development trend of science and technology, and the design will be popular in later generations.

It's just that, in her opinion, such a topic always seems too big for undergraduates to write. Shen Yiyi reminded them: "Undergraduate essays are generally no more than 10,000 words. Do you really think this can be solved in this space? Or do you just want to do a review paper? That kind of thesis doesn't meet the requirements of a graduation thesis! ”

The ideal is very full, but the reality is cruel enough.

If your own vision cannot be realized, of course, it will make the students a little disappointed. Some of them also asked Shen Yiyi: "Shen Yiyi, isn't our newly established fund just to support students' scientific research ideas?" Can you fund my paper? ”

That sounds like a good idea. Many other students were also eye-catching. But Shen Yiyi refused mercilessly.

"If you mean your dissertation, then I wouldn't agree to fund it." Shen Yiyi was very determined not to give the other party any hope. "Because with the length and depth of your paper, investing in your research will not create the desired benefits."

Seeing that the other party was a little disappointed, Shen Yiyi patiently explained to him.

"I'm not saying that the topic of your dissertation isn't worth writing. Contrary. The title of your dissertation reflects your keen insight and genius imagination. I believe that in another decade or so, your topic will definitely bear fruit. Shen Yiyi first affirmed the significance of the other party's topic. Of course, the blossoms in front often mean a ruthless turn in the back.

Sure enough, Shen Yiyi continued: "However, it is precisely because this topic is too rich in content and too advanced, that you can't complete it alone." If you insist on doing it. That would only be a superficial first step. It is okay to write an undergraduate dissertation with such results. However, research that cannot be turned into real results is not supported by the fund we have established. Because our fund is a venture capital fund, not a charitable fund. Even if we can afford to risk failure. But at least in the selection of objects, let us see the hope of success. And your topic, obviously, has no hope of success at the moment. ”

If Shen Yiyi wants to make this venture capital fund a link between everyone, then it must be able to bring sustainable returns to the members. Obviously, doing charity and donating will only waste the fund and not create value. So. Something like that. She has to block it as soon as possible.

Liu Yihao saw that the atmosphere seemed to be a little stiff, so he came in and said, "Yes." If you can't produce a product that can be sold for money in the future, it will be equivalent to using up part of our fund in one fell swoop. That would be in vain, everyone agreed not to divide the money first, and kept the good intentions to do more meaningful things. “

The classmate said to Liu Yihao disapprehantly: "It's okay." You don't have to persuade me. I can get it. I'm just a little sorry for my topic, which seems to be a bit empty and has no urgency. If only I could come up with a similar design for the project at the time. That kind of topic is in line with our fund's funding criteria. “

Liu Yihao saw that the other party understood everything, and he was relieved. He turned back to Shen Yiyi and said, "Fortunately, our team members are able to understand each other. No vexatiousness. But if there really is a topic that can produce results in the short term, our fund can still support it, right? “

Shen Yiyi looked at Liu Yihao's eyes. Without hesitation, he said, "Of course it can be supported." We set up the Fund to support the development of valuable technologies. So we have a classmate who has such a technical need, why don't we invest in him? But again, the topic should meet the criteria we support. “

Seeing that the students around him thoughtfully began to hold paper and pen again, pondering and meditating on what topics meet the conditions for funding that Shen Yiyi said, Liu Yihao asked Shen Yiyi: "If you design a big project around a topic that can be transformed into results, everyone can contribute part of their strength." So in this case, does everyone's question meet your requirements? “

Shen Yiyi's eyes lit up. In fact, Liu Yihao said this method, she herself has thought about it. Divide a large project into several sub-projects, and each sub-project can be completed by each student independently. And the results completed by each student are put together to become a technology that can be productized. In this way, it is true that each student's project can theoretically be eligible for funding. But Shen Yiyi didn't take the initiative herself, and she also had a reason.

The first is that she is too lazy to think about such a subject. Because it is not easy to find a project that requires a lot of work and can become a reality. If it were really that simple, there wouldn't be a bunch of "junk patents" that can't be commercialized every year. Moreover, even if he found it, Shen Yiyi would have to bother to decompose so many sub-topics according to the number and ability of everyone in his team. It's also very brain-draining. Shen Yiyi felt that there were many things, and he didn't want to bother too much about this matter.

In addition, if there is such a big project, it is true that every student can get project funding. However, this also means that the part of the funds that everyone has saved will be paid for each person's project immediately. In this case, the VC fund can be used up all at once. She originally wanted to win people's hearts by setting up this fund, if the fund was spent all at once, wouldn't it be a good dream that only lasted for a short time? Of course, theoretically, as long as the project is successful, the money paid should be able to be returned immediately, but after all, the risk of spending it all at once is really too big. Therefore, Shen Yiyi was against such a situation from the bottom of his heart.

However, now facing Liu Yihao's question, as well as the friends who heard Liu Yihao's question and had hope flashing in their eyes, Shen Yiyi felt that he couldn't avoid this question.

Someone was already there and chimed in, "yes, if we find such a big topic, wouldn't we all be able to do our graduation thesis more meaningfully?" I said Shen Yiyi, and Liu Yihao, you two have the best brains, think of one. We all want to work with you to create a perfect research result like we did when we did the course design. ”

"yes!"

"yes...... Think about it! ”

For a while, the applause came and went.

Shen Yiyi looked at Liu Yihao one by one. And Liu Yihao looked at Shen Yiyi hopefully. Liu Yihao felt that Shen Yiyi's knowledge was far beyond that of his own group. And people should have been exposed to more research than themselves since childhood, so of course they should have more ways than people like themselves.

Shen Yiyi said to everyone a little angrily: "You guys, this can be regarded as a slander against me, right?!" All right. Let me think about it, is there any valuable subject that can be done? ”

In his heart, Shen Yiyi also made a note to Liu Yihao. This guy may have spoiled his own good deeds. If the fund really collapses by then, see how you deal with him!

But that's another story. Of course, Shen Yiyi himself didn't want the fund to collapse before it was established. So of course she will try her best to find a good and valuable topic, and try to make everyone equally successful in this topic. (To be continued.) )

PS: These words don't cost money. Yesterday's chapter number was wrong. But today will be wrong. So with two 527 chapters, it's good for everyone to ignore it.

The background of the new update at the starting point,I'm not familiar with it yet.,That's why I found out that the author's words were put here.。 Thank you all for your monthly passes and tips these days. Thank you to all of you who left a message in the readers' area.
