Chapter 50: We're Competitors!

"A-level difficulty?"

"Complete the research and get an extra 1,000 Teaching Coins?"

After establishing a new R&D task, Wang Hao immediately noticed the most critical sentence--

[Complete A-level difficulty research, and get an additional number of teaching coins: 1000.] 】

The previous task did not have an 'extra teaching coin' reward, and only the task settlement could convert the excess inspiration value into teaching coins, and when the difficulty reached the level of A, it could be directly rewarded with teaching coins.

"The difficulty has increased, and it is really different!"

For a long time, the teaching coins have been accumulated slowly, and the speed of accumulation is also a little pitiful, especially after the end of the course, the number of teaching coins obtained by talking to others every day is extremely limited.

For example, if you stay in the office all day and chat with other teachers, you can occasionally get teaching coins, but at most, you only get five, which is only half of the limit for the day.

Establish a C-level and D-level R&D task, you can get some inspiration points related to it by reading books, studying, and talking about research problems, and complete the research alone to convert all of them into teaching coins.

However, the acquisition and conversion efficiency is still very low.

C-level and D-level research results, like chicken ribs, 'tasteless food, discarded pity', at most one or two SCI papers, but almost no impact, and he published enough SCI.

At the same time, for the study of C-level and D-level difficulty, the ratio of task settlement to teaching currency is 'discounted'.

For D-level research, 400 inspiration points can be exchanged for 100 teaching coins.

Usual study and research also need to consume learning coins, because of the continuous consumption of teaching coins, in recent times, teaching coins have been 'making ends meet', and even self-sufficiency can not be done.

Sometimes, when I try to study and research, I don't use teaching coins to improve my concentration.

Then, it was quickly abandoned.

Using the teaching coin to enter the focus mode, a bit like 'krypton gold', or even like 'addiction', the focus mode can improve the concentration of thinking, but also improve the brain's thinking activity, whether it is learning or doing research, the efficiency will be greatly improved.

The efficiency of learning and research can be increased by two or three times, and the feeling is completely different.

Because of this, the number of teaching coins has not been able to rise, and now it is only '361' points, and if you want to reach tens of thousands of points by slowly accumulating, you don't know what year and month it will take.

Now, suddenly, there is hope.

A-level research tasks, get an extra thousand learning coins, as long as you complete a few A-level research, the teaching coins can be close to 10,000, right?

"A-level, get an additional 1,000 teaching coins, plus settlement and exchange, complete a few A-level research, and you can accumulate more than 10,000 teaching coins."

"What if it's higher? S-class? Maybe two thousand will be rewarded? 5,000 Teaching Coins? ”

Wang Hao thought about it, and then found that he had to face the reality, the research of A-level difficulty will definitely be much more difficult, and it is not so easy to complete.

I just don't know how much inspiration can be improved by making a presentation at the STACS conference?

……

Tired all the way.

Marseille is the final destination, which is far enough away, and it takes a little longer to change flights at Milan airport.

When the plane arrived at Marseille airport, Wang Hao felt groggy, he forced himself to sleep most of the time, and lay on the seat with his eyes closed, but he still felt tired.

Fortunately, it has arrived.

After getting off the plane and following the crowd out of the airport, I felt a little refreshed and in the mood to look around.

Marseille, the third largest city in the country after Paris and Lyon, has a population of more than 800,000 and a metropolitan area of less than 2 million.

Wang Hao and Ruan Hailong first went to the hotel, put away their luggage, ate something, and then went directly to the conference hall of Shano Park.

STACS is a conference on computer theory and algorithms, which is classified as an international A-class academic conference, and can be called a top computer conference because of its professionalism and influence.

Internationally, there are many class A conferences on computer science, STACS is only a professional conference in one direction, the scale of the event is not large, hundreds of papers are submitted, 20 or 30 papers have been submitted, the number of scholars participating is two or three hundred, and the official report time of the conference plan is two days.

If there is a longer report in the meeting, it may also be extended by half a day or a day, as appropriate.

Wang Hao and Ruan Hailong went over together, showed the relevant certificates, and received their own information cards.

Ruan Hailong also went to the electronic bulletin board, looked at the meeting report arrangement, and then came back and said, "Yours, the second venue, the first one in the afternoon the day after tomorrow!" ”

"The first one in the afternoon the day after tomorrow?"

Wang Hao couldn't help frowning, the first session in the afternoon was not a good time, and it could even be said that it was 'one of the worst'.

The first session on the afternoon of the second day, still in the 'second venue', was even worse and could be classified as 'not at all favorable'.

Ruan Hailong said comfortingly, "It's good to be able to make a report." I also submitted, but I didn't even pass the first trial, like this kind of A-level meeting, the rejection rate is too high, even higher than the A+ meeting. ”

"Moreover, your research will definitely not be favored, and if I were the organizer, I would have arranged it like this."

He said it very bluntly, but it was from the heart.

There is a lot of research on the 'multiplication algorithm for large numbers', but it is already remarkable to be able to 'improve'.

The conference submission is not to send all the content, but just to introduce the results, briefly talk about the process, all the research content, especially involving algorithms and computer expression, are very complex, and it is impossible to write all the details in a paper of dozens of pages at most.

A scholar who is not very well-known can submit a paper on 'multiplication algorithm of large numbers', and it is already very good to pass the review.

The conference organizers will certainly think that the study is at best an improvement on the 'multiplication of large numbers', i.e. a little more efficient, or at all, uncertain whether the study is correct.

Therefore, the timing of the report must be placed at 'one of the worst times'.

As the two of them were talking and walking out, they saw three people walking together, all of them Chinese faces, so they paid more attention.

Wang Hao noticed that one of the people with a Mediterranean hairstyle seemed to be somewhat familiar.

The person with the Mediterranean hairstyle also looked over at the same time, stared at Wang Hao for a long time, and shouted tentatively, "Wang Hao? ”

Wang Hao pointed to himself and walked over, he said with some uncertainty, "You are ......"

I still haven't remembered it for a long time.

"Teacher Sha!"

"Oh~~~"

Wang Hao suddenly realized, "Teacher Sha! He finally figured out the information about the Mediterranean hairstyle from memory.

Mr. Sha, whose name is Sha Mianzhi, is the teacher of the professional course "Linear Model", and he has only taught more than a dozen classes, and he has no contact with others, so naturally he has not had much impact.

Sha Mianzhi remembered that Wang Hao was also after Wang Hao stayed in school, and the material experiment news had an impression, and he knew that it was a former student who felt a little sorry.

Some time ago, Wang Hao also appeared on the Internet hot search, published ten papers in more than a month, and was named and reported by "Xinhua Daily", and many faculty and staff in Donggang are talking.

Sha Mianzhi taught Wang Hao to pay more attention, but he didn't expect to see Wang Hao again at an academic conference in Marseille.

Being in a foreign country, teachers and students feel closer to each other.

Although Wang Hao was 'dismissed' by Donggang University because of problems in the experiment, in fact, the ordinary faculty and staff of Donggang University only listened to and talked about Wang Hao's affairs.

Sha Mianzhi introduced his peers, one is a collaborator of the research, Wang Mingkun, a professor at Donggang Normal University, Wang Mingkun is younger than Sha Mianzhi, about forty years old, but the middle-aged fat is more serious, and he looks a little fat.

The other is a doctoral student led by Sha Mianzhi, whose name is Xu Jie, who is twenty-five years old.

Sha Mianzhi gave Xu Jie a key introduction, obviously very optimistic about Xu Jie's potential.

After a few people introduced each other, one of the people went to sign in, and then came back to look around the venue, the venue is in a famous park in Marseille, and the environment outside the venue is also very good.

Walking, watching, talking.

Sha Mianzhi talked about Wang Hao's departure from Donggang, and also shouted a few words of grievances for him, "I can't say anything about this." But I don't think it's right for the school to just dismiss him. Even if the experimental data is wrong, what about the others? This kind of problem is certainly not your responsibility alone. ”

"Alas~~" Sha Mianzhi said and sighed.

Similar things can only be said by others, the dismissal of Wang Hao is the decision of the school leadership, what can be done?

"It's all gone, don't mention it."

Wang Hao waved his hand absently, and also asked about the intention of Sha Mian's pedestrians.

"Make a report!"

Sha Mianzhi talked about this and the spirit, "Our results at the beginning of this year, the research on IO, there is no problem at all in submitting the A+ meeting, but we have our eyes on STACS. ”

Wang Mingkun also said excitedly, "This time we are going to go back with the best paper award!" ”

"Uh~~"

Wang Hao asked, "Mr. Sha, STACS will only select the best one, right?" ”

"yes, that makes sense!" Sha Mianzhi nodded affirmatively.

Wang Hao hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, "Then this time, we are competitors!" ”
