Xu Xincheng and Liu Tingbo glanced at each other and couldn't help but be taken aback.

The model of the seminar that Pang Xuelin refers to is very similar to that of Grothendieck when he founded the Algebraic Geometry Seminar at the Institut Supérieure des Sciences in France.

That seminar laid the foundation for algebraic geometry, and the various discussion papers and papers were later integrated into SGA, one of the three classic works in the field of algebraic geometry today.

If we pull the time forward, in the thirties and forties of the last century, there was a similar scene in Jiangda.

It was a seminar on function theory chaired by Mr. Chen Jiangong and a seminar on differential geometry chaired by Mr. Su Buqing.

Mr. Chen Jiangong and Mr. Su Buqing used this method to rapidly advance the young teachers, graduate students and senior students of Jiang University to the forefront of the development of mathematics in the world, and cultivated a large number of well-known scholars.

In the forties of the twentieth century, the school of differential geometry of Jiang University, the Chicago school of the United States and the Roman school of Italy stood in the international mathematical community.

As a mathematician, Liu Tingbo is well aware of the influence of the Ponzi geometry theory system invented by Pang Xuelin.

Judging from the feedback from the mathematical community in the past few days, Ponzi geometry has been generally given a very high evaluation, and many people believe that the emergence of Ponzi geometry has pushed the development of algebraic geometry to a new era.

If this trend continues, as long as Pang Xuelin continues to stay at Jiang University, the Department of Mathematics of Jiang University will not be able to reproduce the grand occasion of the differential geometry school in the thirties and forties of the last century.

Liu Tingbo was a little excited: "This is a good idea, it should attract many top talents to come and participate in our seminars, and if we do a good job of service, we may be able to let those top scholars stay at Jiang University in the future." ”

Xu Xincheng nodded and said: "What Lao Liu said is that this idea can be tried, I think this can be led and organized by the Academy of Mathematics, Professor Pang, the specific management of the seminar can only be handed over to you." ”

Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "I can't shirk my responsibility!" ”

"By the way, Professor Pang, there's one more thing I don't know whether to say or not."

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned, and wondered: "What's the matter?" ”

Xu Xincheng said: "I heard that you are going to study another major in materials, and you have also designed an experiment to prepare carbon nanotubes, even Li Changchun is amazed?" ”

Pang Xuelin said: "Is there such a thing, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Xu Xincheng smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, what I want to say is that you don't have to go to the School of Materials for that project, I will give you a special approval of three million scientific research funds, if it's not enough, you can continue to look for me!" ”

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned: "I don't need so many ......"

Liu Tingbo on the side gave Pang Xuelin a look and said, "That's good, Professor Pang, you don't have to worry about the experimental funds, the school will definitely not lose you." ”

Pang Xuelin immediately stopped talking.

Xu Xincheng said with a smile: "Professor Pang, then it's decided, the three million funds will arrive in your account as soon as possible!" Okay, if there's nothing to do, I'll leave first, and you and Lao Liu have a good chat about the next report meeting. ”

As he spoke, Xu Xincheng stepped forward and patted Pang Xuelin on the shoulder and walked out of Liu Tingbo's office.

Seeing Xu Xincheng walking away, Liu Tingbo said: "Professor Pang, you can hold the three million with peace of mind, your two achievements, to be honest, a reward of 10 million is nothing." But the school is worried that some people will gossip about directly rewarding so much money, after all, we don't need too much money to engage in mathematical research. It just so happens that you have a project in the School of Materials, and it will be given to you in the form of project funds, which can be regarded as a compensation for you. ”

Pang Xuelin couldn't help crying and laughing, he really wanted money, and when the high-purity carbon nanotube project came to fruition, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get money from the state?

However, he also understands that if he really wants to make a difference in the field of carbon nanotubes and graphene, the funds required will be an astronomical amount, and the three million is better than nothing.

Then, Pang Xuelin chatted with Liu Tingbo about the report meeting, and then returned to his office.

As soon as I turned on the computer, a TXT document popped up on the desktop of the computer, and a line of words appeared on it: "Professor Pang, MOSS requests to talk to you!" ”

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned, smiled dumbly, and responded on the document: "MOSS, is there something wrong?" ”

During this time, although MOSS took over Pang Xuelin's mobile phone operating system and computer operating system, Pang Xuelin did not feel any difference between his mobile phone and computer except that his mobile phone and computer had become extremely smooth.

In the daily office, MOSS also helps me to deal with daily documents and emails, and most of the other time, MOSS has a low sense of presence.

This is the first time it has taken the initiative to stand up and talk to itself.

Soon, a line appeared on the TXT document again: "The performance of the cooling system of the computing cluster is insufficient, and the cooling system needs to be further installed, in addition, after half a month of machine learning, the data capacity of the storage system has reached the limit, and it is recommended to further upgrade the management node, computing node, and storage node." ”

Pang Xuelin: "......"

I just got a prize of 1.5 million US dollars from the Clay Institute, which was converted into nearly 10.5 million yuan, and after deducting taxes, there was only more than 8 million left.

Pang Xuelin even wondered if MOSS knew that he had won the bonus, and he was specially stuck in time to ask for money.

How do you feel like you're a debt collector?

"Well, MOSS, how much will it cost you to upgrade, make a list, and don't forget the cost of the grid retrofit! Oh, by the way, the upper limit of funds is 3 million RMB! ”

"Oh!"

MOSS seemed a little disappointed, but soon it had a full list again.

What makes Pang Xuelin strange is that the list listed by MOSS this time not only includes all kinds of equipment needed by the data center, but also many strange things.

For example, various models of industrial robots, drones and automatic charging equipment, these things alone are worth nearly a million.

"MOSS, WHAT DO YOU WANT ALL THIS STUFF FOR?"

Pang Xuelin was a little strange.

A line appeared on the TXT document: "Professor Pang, since you are not in the riverside villa most of the time, and MOSS is not suitable for contact with others, with these things, MOSS can maintain itself." In addition, drones can also carry out security patrols to prevent people from entering the villa and pose a threat to MOSS. ”

Pang Xuelin replied: "Okay, but this upgrade, I'm afraid there is no way to complete it by me alone like last time, just installing the cooling system, you need a construction team with high qualifications, in addition, after the upgrade, the power consumption will increase a lot, when the time comes, you need to communicate with the power supply bureau, change the transmission line, you may have to stay in the small black room for half a month......"

The sound of the computer fan suddenly increased, and MOSS seemed to be thinking about something, and after a long time replied, "MOSS is acceptable!" ”
