Chapter 171: Entering the International Academic Circle Alone
Chapter 171: Entering the International Academic Circle Alone (23)
Everything on Ludao has been arranged properly.
Xu Qingshan boarded the plane to Beijing with peace of mind.
He was wearing a simple solid-color T-shirt and overalls, but no one dared to underestimate this young man.
After all, what ordinary child can afford to fly business class?
Airplanes were not cheap in 09, and business class tickets had even less discounts.
The service is naturally really good.
When Xu Qingshan arrived in Beijing, he was still in full health. When he got off the plane, Chen Dayue was already waiting at the airport.
Far away.
Xu Qingshan saw two old men holding signs at the airport arrival gate.
This was the first time he met Chen Dayue and Xia Bican.
It’s just that I don’t know whether I should say this or not.
Xu Qingshan was carrying his bag and looking at the two teachers in front of him who were wearing the same glasses and had high foreheads. He felt that his two mentors looked like different species of squirrels.
One is a three-dimensional squirrel and the other is a two-dimensional squirrel.
"Qingshan! This way! This way!"
Chen Dayue kept stretching his neck and recognized his beloved disciple the moment he saw Xu Qingshan.
He was like an old father, meeting his children after a long absence and greeting them excitedly.
Xu Qingshan has a tall and straight figure and handsome appearance. Even if he is wearing simple clothes, he is still very conspicuous in the crowd.
"Wow, Qingshan is even more handsome than in the photo!"
Xia Bican on the side put away the sign and looked at Xu Qingshan who was walking over.
"Teacher, Teacher Xia."
Xu Qingshan came up enthusiastically and gave the two teachers a bear hug.
After all, they must have done a lot for themselves.
I have nothing to repay you for, just a hug.
Xu Qingshan's hug also prevented the awkward scene they had thought might happen from happening.
It feels like we've known each other for a long time.
"Let's go. I've prepared all the materials for you. We can go directly to the consulate. Have you bought the plane ticket?"
"I've bought it. I'm leaving from the Capital Airport tomorrow afternoon."
Seeing Chen Dayue constantly giving instructions like an old nanny, Xu Qingshan smiled and agreed to them one by one.
"Really don't need me and Lao Xia to send someone to accompany you? We can take leave."
Chen Dayue patted Xu Qingshan on the shoulder and asked with some concern.
"It's okay, teacher. There's always a first time for everything."
Xu Qingshan smiled.
"You guys must be very busy now, I can do it myself."
"Okay, let's go to the consulate."
Chen Dayue reached out to help Xu Qingshan carry the bag, and the two old men held Xu Qingshan on the left and right and got into the car. It didn't look like they were picking someone up, but rather arresting someone.
With the protection of two Peking University department heads and the intervention of the Peking University president, who also found an unknown big shot to spread the word, Xu Qingshan's documents were issued very quickly.
When I arrived at the consulate, it didn't take too much time and I wasn't troubled.
Xu Qingshan felt that this should have been arranged in advance.
However, the staff at the consulate were still shocked when they saw that Xu Qingshan was only 18 years old and was visiting as a scholar attending a conference.
night.
Chen Dayue and Xia Bican set up a table at the Donglaishun branch in Zhongguancun and treated Xu Qingshan to authentic old Beijing mutton hotpot.
"Come on, eat more. This is our special Beijing cuisine."
Chen Dayue kept putting mutton rolls into Xu Qingshan's bowl, leaving him no chance to let go.
His bowl was never empty.
"Come, dip it in sesame sauce, it's authentic."
"Thank you, teacher."
Xu Qingshan was quite well behaved when he came in front of Chen Dayue.
Chen Dayue didn't say anything else, he just kept asking about Xu Qingshan's well-being. Xia Bican, who wanted to talk to Xu Qingshan about academic issues, waited for a long time but didn't get a chance to say anything.
Until the evening, Xu Qingshan was sent to the hotel.
Chen Dayue, with his hands in his pockets, was walking home alone.
"After all, this kid is only eighteen. Why wasn't I so handsome and smart when I was eighteen?"
Chen Dayue said to himself.
"I hope he won't be affected by the outside environment and can keep his heart in China."
"But after all, it's inevitable to have one-on-one contact, alas."
Chen Dayue sniffed and looked up at the dim street lights.
"I don't know when Ding Jian will come back."
"Don't want to, go home."
Under dim street lights.
The man wearing glasses walked along the edge of the road with his hands in his pockets. His shadow was sometimes long and sometimes short, and it was not very clear.
There is no elevator in the family building.
He stepped hard as he went up the stairs.
The noise of leather shoes hitting the ground could be heard from a long distance away, and the corridor of the residential building also became brighter upwards.
Chen Dayue is a teacher first and a scholar second.
He worries a lot.
But there is not much he can say. Xu Qingshan actually does not have as many thoughts as he thinks. This trip abroad, no matter what, will not affect his determination to do scientific research, and will not make him think of staying abroad.
But Xu Qingshan naturally didn’t know that Chen Dayue was thinking so much.
7 month 13 day.
He was already on an intercontinental flight to Canada.
When we landed, people from the organizing committee came to pick us up.
only.
Xu Qingshan's rank was relatively low and his treatment was relatively ordinary. Only a girl wearing an ICML conference printed T-shirt came to receive him.
"Hello, is this Mr. Xu?"
"It's me, what's your name?"
The white girl in front of Xu Qingshan looked quite young, with a very classic white appearance, blonde ponytail, amber eyes, and some freckles on her nose and cheeks. She seemed to be a college student who came here as a volunteer.
"You may call me Olivia, sir."
Olivia had very long eyelashes, and when she blinked her eyes it looked like a moth flapping its wings. When she looked at Xu Qingshan, there was light in her eyes.
After all, she came to be a volunteer for the academic conference and wanted to interact with the most intelligent people in the academic field in the world and ask them some advice on learning problems.
When I just saw Xu Qingshan.
Olivia’s first reaction was… He’s so handsome!
The second reaction was, how come Mr. Xu is so young? Can his academic attainments really be so high?
Then her mind started to work. When Xu Qingshan walked up to her and saw his scholarly aura, she suddenly understood.
I have just received a call from a young, handsome, wise and talented scholar!
Olivia felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
But the Mr. Xu in front of him did not even linger on his perfect body that he was so proud of, but instead kept looking into his eyes politely.
This made her unable to control her heartbeat.
"Thank you, Miss Olivia. How should we get to Montreal next?"
There are not many direct flights from China to Montreal at present, and they are not available every day. Xu Qingshan chose Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.
He had communicated this with the organizing committee in advance.
That's why Olivia came to Ottawa to pick him up.
"I drove here, and we drove straight to Montreal."
“Isn’t there a subway in Ottawa?”
Xu Qingshan was a little surprised.
This is the capital of Canada!
Olivia explained a little sheepishly.
"Ottawa's light rail only has Line 1, and Line 2 has never been built. People usually travel by taxi around the airport."
"I see."
Xu Qingshan secretly added in his heart, no wonder Teacher Chen called Ottawa "Ottawa Village" before coming here.
"Mr. Xu, come this way."
Olivia took the suitcase from Xu Qingshan. Xu Qingshan carried his briefcase himself, and the two walked out of the airport.
"Is this your car?"
Xu Qingshan raised his eyebrows and looked at the very flashy fiery red sports car in front of him.
"Pontiac Firebird, isn't it nice?"
Olivia patted the front of her beloved car and showed off to Xu Qingshan.
“It’s quite unique.”
At that time, sports cars in the country were not as common as they were later. This was the first time Xu Qingshan saw a sports car after his rebirth, and it was such a unique American muscle car.
The main reason is that Olivia looks more like a European or American girl next door. Although her curvy body hidden under the ICML volunteer T-shirt is very mature and full as if it is about to ooze juice, her baby face really makes it impossible for people to associate her with this somewhat wild American muscle car.
Olivia took the initiative to help Xu Qingshan put away his suitcase, stuffed his briefcase in the corner, and opened the car door for Xu Qingshan.
"Welcome aboard, Mr. Xu, fasten your seat belts, we are ready to take off."
"take off?"
"Whoops!!!"
Xu Qingshan had just sat down when the huge push on his back left him no chance to react. He subconsciously grabbed anything he could hold on to beside him.
It feels a bit slippery to the touch, but it is quite soft and elastic.
"Xu, is this your first time riding in a car at this speed?"
Olivia's face was full of excitement, and she turned her head from time to time, trying to see the nervous expression of the elegant man next to her.
Unfortunately, although Xu Qingshan made some movements with his hands, the expression on his face was very calm.
"It's the first time I've been in a car driven at this speed by a girl."
Xu Qingshan withdrew his hand. He was caught off guard just now. It is better to be polite when going out.
"If you want, I can drive you from Montreal to Toronto after the meeting. I study computer science at the University of Toronto, and I'd like to invite you to visit my school."
Xu Qingshan was slightly surprised that this seemingly slightly infatuated girl was actually studying at a world-renowned university, and he secretly marveled at her enthusiasm and directness.
"I'm honored, but I still have some work to do in China. If you come to China, please contact me."
Xu Qingshan still rejected the girl's invitation.
However, Olivia did not show any emotional fluctuations, she just drove faster.
This made Xu Qingshan suspect that she didn't want something to happen between him and him, but wanted something to happen between him and him.
Speed and passion all the way.
Xu Qingshan walked a little lightly and checked into the hotel near the venue where he would stay for the next four days.
The conference hall was very clean, and Xu Qingshan could see many scholars with elegant temperaments. Although he didn't know any of these people, he could tell they were big shots by the way they were surrounded by people.
As for yourself?
A lone man was carrying a briefcase.
Xu Qingshan stood at the entrance of the venue, about to begin his first international academic experience.
