Chapter 262 Roll it up!

When they walked into the meeting room, no one dared to ask Qiao Yu, who had arrived in advance and was sitting on the podium and throwing a tantrum.

This naturally includes Zheng Zefeng.

He originally wanted to go up and say hello to Qiao Yu, but seeing the young man's unhappy face, and because the door downstairs had been closed and no one was let in, everyone came up together, so he held back and didn't say hello.

Qiao Yu seemed to be in a bad mood to begin with. If he went to say hello at this time, he might get into trouble. There was no need for that.

Didn’t you see that everyone else just lowered their voices and even walked carefully to avoid attracting attention with their loud footsteps? It’s better not to stand out at this time.

Qiao Yu had never noticed that he was now quite imposing when he got angry. Even the professors had begun to subconsciously ignore his age and focus on his dignity.

Fortunately, after seeing the professors quietly walk into the conference room, Qiao Yu quickly calmed down and put those messy thoughts aside.

In the eyes of outsiders, Qiao Yu’s greatest strength is probably that although he often uses his fame and achievements to bully others, he never uses them to show off his superiority.

In Qiao Yu's opinion, this is a very stupid behavior. After all, the people who will help him in the future are all good people. He also hopes that the people around him will regard him as a good person.

This way, when you want to do something bad to someone, you can usually hit the target with one strike. This is the life lesson Qiao Yu learned when he learned that those who are righteous will have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous will have few supporters.

If you want to show off, feel superior, and satisfy your own vanity, that's something you do in front of outsiders.

This is the same reason why rich people who want to live safely should not be too harsh on their bodyguards.

"Is everyone here? I'll get straight to the point. The research center originally meant that once the results are out, they should be announced directly on the official website.

If everyone can check the admission results of the project team directly on the official website, there is no need to hold this meeting. But I think this is not a good idea, so I applied for this meeting with the center.

Firstly, I want to meet you all and express my gratitude to you all. You all hope to be admitted to the subject I applied for, which in itself is a sign of your trust in me, so I thank you all very much!
The second is to match your names with the test papers. After all, if you can pass the preliminary selection or be recommended, you must be the best in your field. And you all know my situation.

Many people didn't treat me as a human being, so there are many projects in the future. Although most people were not selected for this project this time, next time I will give priority to those who performed well in this assessment.

Well, this meeting was held specifically to tell him these two sentences. Next, I will directly announce the list of people who will be selected for this project team.

Mathematical theory expert: Professor Zheng Zefeng, this exam score is 62.5 points. Quantum physics theory expert: Professor Zhang Xiaoli, this exam score is 66 points. Algorithm engineering expert: Professor Luo Qixun and Professor Lu Zhongwei..."

As soon as the first four names were announced, everyone else felt disappointed.

After all, according to previously announced information, there are only five official places for this project, including the host.

Who knew that Qiao Yu didn't pause at all and continued to announce the list of selected candidates.

"Quantum communication experts: Professor Zhang Jiaze and Professor Lu Yanwei; artificial intelligence expert: Professor Zeng Jingwen. And the person who is mainly responsible for quantum simulation and data analysis: Professor Hu Xingyao.

Finally, we have Professor Chen Qian, a specially-appointed expert in the field of high-energy physics and optics. Please stay. As for the professors who are not selected for this project team, please go to the next meeting room to fill out a questionnaire.

The key is to write down your past learning and academic research experience, achievements, and specialties as detailed as possible. This way, we will give you priority when we have the next project or when this project needs to expand enrollment.

After filling out the questionnaire, everyone can move freely. If you don't plan to leave Beijing today, you can join us for the dinner we'll prepare in the Yanbei University faculty cafeteria."

Five minutes into the meeting, the meeting was over.

Qiao Yu also let professors from all over the country witness the extremely high meeting efficiency of the Chinese post-00s.

And no one has any objections.

The professors who were selected for the project team were very happy. Even those who were not selected felt that there was still hope.

After all, the Natural Science Foundation had only given five places, but Qiao Yu recruited eight people at once. Including the host, there were nine people, which was a serious excess.

At this time, the selected candidates may still feel a little worried, fearing that they will exceed the standards and enter the project team, but their superiors will not recognize it at all.

But for the professors who were not selected, this actually shows that there are still great opportunities in the future. Qiao Yu probably didn't do this just to reassure them.

Just like what Qiao Yu said just now, if the purpose was to fool them, there was no need to go through so much trouble.

As long as they accept the research center's suggestions and follow the usual practice of directly announcing the results on the research center's official website, there is no need to call them over to listen to these words.

Soon, most of the people in the meeting room left on their own and went to the next meeting room to fill out forms. Only the eight people left by Qiao Yu were left in the meeting room.

"Does anyone have any questions?" Qiao Yu asked directly and concisely as before.

Soon someone raised his hand.

"Professor Zeng, go ahead."

"Qiao... um, Mr. Qiao, I want to ask, the National Natural Science Foundation previously allocated five people for our project, and now it is nine. Will the four extra people be recognized by the higher authorities? Or are only four people formal project team members, and the others are just non-staff members?"

"I was going to tell you all about this even if you didn't ask me. Don't worry. Since I think the project team needs so many people, there must be a reason.

We are all official members of the project team. I believe that as long as we work together, we can achieve results! I will definitely communicate well without mentioning the above.

Don't worry if the communication is not good! Anyway, we are talking behind closed doors today, so I think we can make things clearer.

I have always believed that we don’t need to talk too much about empty things when doing scientific research, such as winning glory for the country, which is the inevitable result of our success. What everyone wants now is to produce more results and publish more articles so that the future can go more smoothly. So no matter whether the higher-ups can give us so many places, I have to promise you here that if you follow me, you will definitely get results. There will be so many articles in Zone 1 in the future that you won’t even bother to sign your names. Those top journals are your future.

I cannot guarantee that everyone in our project team will win various academic awards. But I am 100% confident that in addition to me, our team can produce at least one or two more Nobel Prize and Philidelphia Medal winners. As for other minor awards, I will not talk about them. "

Qiao Yu said this in a resounding and confident voice.

It's very impressive, and considering Qiao Yu's status as a newly crowned Fields Medal winner, it's a heavy promise.

If we think about the unique live broadcast of the invasion this morning, no, it should be said that it was a live broadcast of technical testing at the invitation of the three major cryptocurrency exchanges in the United States, the credibility is even higher.

The project team hasn't even been formally established yet, but we have already achieved this. No one dares to imagine how far we can go.

So everyone's emotions were really stirred up. Especially those who were engaged in quantum physics, most of their eyes began to light up. After all, the Nobel Prize has no age limit.

Of course, mathematical scholars like Zheng Zefeng will not be disappointed.

Although I have no hope of winning the Fields Medal, as I will be too old in four years, I can still look forward to winning the Wolf Prize and the Abel Prize.

"Okay, I've finished my words of encouragement. I believe everyone has no problem with this. Now comes the ugly words! Although I am a junior in terms of age and qualifications, I don't have much experience.

But since I am the host of this project, I must be responsible for it. Just like I said just now, we want to win a big prize, so we need everyone to produce outstanding results as soon as possible.

So my requirements are very high. The tasks that each of you needs to complete in the near future will be sent to your email after the meeting. I hope that everyone can get into the state from the moment they check their emails.

Especially those tasks that require a lot of calculations and verification. We must ensure that they are completed on time and in full. If you encounter any problems with the research tasks, you must communicate with me in time. If there is no communication and it cannot be completed on time, I will say sorry here.

I will not be like other project leaders who, after deciding on a candidate, politely allow someone to slack off. As I said just now, I am still a new academic and I don't know anything about the social etiquette of the academic world.

The tasks assigned to each of you are very important and are an indispensable part of the entire project. I am a person who cares about face. If I promise someone that a project will be completed within a certain time frame, it can only be completed ahead of schedule and absolutely not delayed.

So if anyone slows down the progress of the entire project, I will report it directly to the higher-ups and ask the project team to replace the person as soon as possible. In short, the project team members are not fixed, and they can leave at any time if they don’t meet the minimum requirements! ”

Qiao Yu began to make demands to the professors selected for the project team without any hesitation.

Being young does have its advantages. For example, you are really inexperienced in the world, so you don't have too deep a relationship with anyone. When you have a falling out, you don't have to consider who is behind you or whether it will make others lose face.

If you are not convinced, you can come and bite him. Zheng Xiwen will help him to withstand physical attacks, and as for magic attacks, his mentor and grandfather are still alive...

Especially his grandmaster's grandfather, Mr. Yuan, who has a high enough status in the underworld, and can swallow his pride when he wants to scold people. He can even scold his students to the point that they doubt their lives. There is no need to doubt his fighting ability.

Most importantly, Master Yuan loved him very much and gave him whatever he wanted. If anyone in the Chinese academic world dared to be sarcastic to him, he would not have to complain. As long as his master heard about it, he would definitely not let the person go.

In addition, the importance of his project is obvious, so as long as he stays in Beijing and does research honestly, he can be said to be invincible.

As for the professors below who had just become excited, they were now looking at each other in bewilderment.

As expected, geniuses learn everything without a teacher...

He is so young, but he has already mastered the carrot and stick approach so skillfully.

Before I could even get fully excited, a blow came directly down on the head.

After all, it would be embarrassing to be kicked out of the project team just because you fail to complete the task.

And he was kicked out of a world-renowned project team. If he was really kicked out, not only would he not be able to enjoy the benefits of being in the project team, but he would probably be labeled as a fake wherever he went, and it would be twice as difficult to apply for projects again.

Before the smiles in the conference room could even fade away, everyone's expressions turned serious.

"Of course, don't worry. I won't be so harsh and assign you impossible tasks. You can ask my senior brother Chen, Professor Chen Zhuoyang of Nanzhou University, how we cooperated.

Basically, the tasks I assigned to him were all within his capabilities. As long as he puts his heart into it, he can definitely complete it! And as long as he completes it, he will get a reward! Now my senior brother Chen only publishes papers in top journals. And this year, he will definitely get a Chern Prize...

Well, today's meeting is over. When you go back, check your emails. There are not only detailed tasks but also the time for two fixed communication meetings per week. In short, all the items specified in the email must be completed. I won't waste your time talking nonsense here.

In addition, as I just mentioned, the research center has prepared a dinner in the faculty cafeteria tonight to celebrate the official establishment of our project team. I hope everyone will come. But it’s best not to drink, because my idea is that everyone can officially enter the working state from tonight..."

After making all the harsh words and demands, Qiao Yu simply ended the meeting. He did not stay to talk to the professors.

The youngest of these professors are his uncles and are all adults. They must have good psychological adjustment abilities and do not need him, a minor, to help them relieve stress.

And he had another problem to deal with.

At least we have to send that great Chief Engineer Yu away before tonight's banquet.

After all, he had to get rid of the old engineer as soon as possible because he still had a lot of things to plan.

For example, how to sign contracts with technology companies, financial exchanges, and cryptocurrency exchanges, and the logo of Xiyu Technology Company also needs to be finalized as soon as possible...

He can't just count on his mother who is too lazy to take care of things, right?
Look at him, a minor who is just in his early seventeens is so busy. How can those professors who are already in their early forties have the nerve to sit around and relax?

So roll up, everyone must roll up!
