My art is too advanced.

Why are all the members of Chapter 375 academicians from foreign academies of sciences?

Whether they are students in the special class at Ningda University.

Zhou Yue had his own ideas about both the new students at Huaguo University of Science and Technology and those new students.

What they need to do is set the admission score for this school.

However, this matter has also been evaluated by professionals, and he has been aggressively poaching talent recently.

I called several academicians and asked them to come and support the construction of Huaguo University of Science and Technology, since they need many more academicians to build this place.

If an academician-level team comes, it will definitely involve a lot of people, so you have to make reservations in advance, otherwise you won't be able to poach them. Anyway, they have sufficient funding, and these academicians are willing to come, including some professors from Pinggu University.

Some academicians wanted to come and do part-time work, while others came directly.

There's nothing that can be done about it then. People will definitely criticize him behind his back. After all, every academician at every university is a treasure. If you just coax someone over like that, who else would they criticize if not you?

Doing part-time work is actually not bad, after all, I'm here mentoring some students.

There are also some academic problems that can be solved here, because the funding provided is substantial, and there are some preferential treatments when applying for national-level projects here.

For example, it might be easier to get projects approved, since their university has a very high rating, and most of the academicians are transferred from the state. As for the people he poached, they are basically academicians who are close to him.

These academicians are all quite accomplished, and I've had some connection with them at academic conferences or other academic exchanges.

There are also some foreign academicians who frequently submit papers to him.

These academicians also received his favors.

So I'm happy to come.

These foreign academicians are all highly skilled, basically no less so than some domestic academicians. In fact, foreign architectural standards have always been at the forefront. For example, they are the only ones undertaking some large-scale world-class projects, while China has never even come close to such projects before.

Zhou Yue has already done a better job on these world-class projects than they have, so there's no point in them staying where they are; they might as well come here.

Zhou Yue naturally welcomed them with open arms. This was not a matter of worshipping foreign things, but simply an acknowledgment of their level. Moreover, the fact that they came here must have taken a lot of determination. For example, when the University of Tokyo invited him and even offered him an exorbitant fee, he was unwilling to go abroad.

Working abroad presents significant challenges. While normal academic exchanges are generally not a problem, there may be instances of cultural or other difficulties adapting to the environment.

However, if you don't go abroad, your skill level won't keep up, so you'll have to give up some things.

……

"Brother Yue, why are there so many foreigners on your list?!"

"These foreigners are all professors from abroad. It is much more difficult to be evaluated as a professor abroad than in China. The fact that they are willing to come here is actually a contribution to us."

"Aren't you afraid they'll steal all our means of production?"

"Don't worry, because the most crucial things will definitely not be entrusted to them. Their level is very high. Just let them do their teaching work."

“We are good at academic issues.”

"As for things like data leaks, we don't really worry about that. Except for some large-scale national secret projects, everything else is relatively open and transparent. Except for some papers we publish that aren't in journals, everything else can be made public."

"These things can all be found in other papers, so we don't need to take too many confidentiality measures. In fact, everyone shares these things."

Lin Ning nodded. These foreigners certainly wouldn't explain the most in-depth and core architectural projects to them, but they would definitely be allowed to participate in normal academic exchanges. This is also why there are very few foreigners in national research institutions. After all, although science has no borders, scientists do. However, some scientists use their abilities to isolate these things.

Because some things can only be done by a few people, if you don't use them, who will?
Once you reach a certain level of skill, nothing else really matters.

"Let's see. We'll submit these documents and have them reviewed by the higher-ups. If they don't pass the review, then there's nothing we can do. Of course, some academicians will definitely remain."

These people are basically all academicians; there are fourteen of them in total.

They are mostly academicians from various countries, or world-class scholars.

"Wait a minute, how come I see my advisor up there?"

Lin Ning was truly shocked; he actually saw his former tutor from Imperial College London.

"This."

"This is also an academician of the Imperial Academy of Sciences. I talked to him when I attended a world-class academic conference, and I think he is a good person."

"Could it be your mentor?"

"Yeah, Yue-ge, you even poached my advisor!"

"I admire you."

Compared to China, where only a few academicians are willing to come, academicians from foreign academies of sciences have joined without hesitation when faced with these offers.

They genuinely love this subject, or rather, they have certain expectations for their own academic improvement. They believe that Zhou Yue can guide them better and elevate them to a considerable level, so they came without hesitation.

This university is actually quite open, and many aspects of its architecture are quite transparent.

Architecture is a science, and this university is making continuous progress in the development of science and engineering disciplines.

"Many times I've thought that Brother Yue really has personal charisma, that he can bring so many people together in this place, and these people are all so outstanding in the world."

"Brother Yue, you're truly invincible!"

That's what personal charisma is all about—being able to bring so many scientists together, all of whom have achieved corresponding results on the world stage.

These days, joining any university would likely cause a huge stir, so it's unexpected that we're all gathered here. "I'm not giving them much today, just enough to guarantee their research funding. Let them research whatever they want, and I can offer some guidance. There are actually quite a few professors from the University of Tokyo among them."

"It is clear that the University of Tokyo has a high regard for me, and many of the scholars there have benefited from my kindness."

Zhou Yue also spoke with a smile.

In short, it's awesome!

For the next period of time, he was basically busy with the affairs of the college. He had turned down most of his other positions, and he had also completed some of his own work.

Some of these tasks were things he urged others to do, while others were things he did himself. These included the design of some large projects, the advancement of some projects, and various project applications or the completion of research projects.

After finishing all these things, he sat comfortably in his office at Huaguo University of Science and Technology.

The construction here is basically complete.

There's nothing that requires special attention.

Moreover, even though there is a lot of formaldehyde in the office, someone still has to absorb it, right?

All he could do was open the windows, add more plants, and spend less time inside.

They even all live outside the school.

There's no way around it then. Many things have to go through the offices of Huaguo University of Science and Technology to get out, such as some documents and special projects.

"It's so difficult."

No one came to keep him company; he did most of the work by himself.

June arrived quickly, and almost everyone took the college entrance examination and filled out their college applications.

Zhou Yue was also quite excited as he looked at the data on the application form, because the cutoff scores they set were not much lower than those of Jinghua University.

However, the number of applicants is comparable to that of some top universities, which means that many students have chosen them over Jinghua University.

This was actually a huge surprise for them.

They had even prepared for the possibility that no one would care. Of course, they wouldn't be completely ignored, since there would definitely be some insightful people who could see how much manpower and resources their country had spent on building this university, and they all wanted to help build it up.

With so many resources being allocated to it, a top-tier university of great scale, comparable to those established universities, may soon be created.

This is the result of national training, and their teaching staff and their teaching level are also presented on their official website.

Putting aside everything else, the faculty of their architecture school is basically the best in the world.

This is by no means an exaggeration, including Zhou Yue.

This is the soul of the School of Architecture. Although he doesn't hold any official position in the School of Architecture, he is actually considered a teacher because the Tianyue Class still exists.

He is the class teacher, so the official website lists him directly in the teacher category. He is quite satisfied, after all, his most important contribution to the profession is still being a teacher. Even though his academic achievements are already piling up, he still feels that teaching and educating people is definitely more suitable for him.

Moreover, this class has taken a lot of his time. Even now, he needs to connect this class with Huaguo University of Science and Technology and have them select some people to join this class. After all, the scores of the participants in this class were very high, no lower than those of these people.

Actually, this is the third cohort of recruits, and there will definitely be some students from Ningbo University who will be admitted.

Since the two universities are mutually training each other, Zhou Yue is considering whether to issue these people two degree certificates. Of course, two would be too irregular, so he decided to let these people choose whichever they want, either degree certificate from one university is fine.

He now has a very high level of authority and is fully qualified to decide these issues, so he doesn't need to have too many concerns. He can do whatever he wants, and he is an absolute authority in the construction industry, even more so than academicians.

Besides him, there are some domestic academicians. Some of them were transferred from Peking University, and some were recruited from other universities. Although some of them are part-time academicians, those who can be included in this list can basically fly over at any time, so there is no need to say more.

There are also some foreign academicians. These foreigners are mostly engaged in teaching, while others are in academic or research positions, but none of them have been able to reach the position of head of a teaching and research office.

So these people are actually quite easy to manage; their level of achievement depends on their abilities.

But the skill level...

Who can surpass Zhou Gao in this regard?
These people felt it was already a great honor to receive even a little guidance from Teacher Zhou, and some even harbored a pilgrimage-like mentality towards him.

And then there's the art academy; he's the dean of the art academy.

However, the art academy did not conduct early admissions this time.

In other words, the students in this cohort of art students are basically all enrolled through the national unified entrance examination. They are learning from scratch, unlike art students who are learning art theory from the beginning. They are aware of this, as the courses offered are quite transparent. The professors in the art academy are all from the three major art academies.

This was achieved with the help of the state; otherwise, they simply couldn't have recruited so many people.

Principal Gao made a lot of effort in this process, as it certainly takes a lot of time and energy to establish this art academy.

Principal Gao understood this better than anyone else, since starting from scratch would definitely take a long time.

He was also curious to see what kind of future Professor Zhou could make this art academy. Of course, it was still in its early stages, and no one would be too demanding of him.

and.

Teacher Zhou's artistic level is actually quite remarkable. After all, if architecture is considered art, then he is definitely an art master, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a grandmaster in this field. He has also appeared on a nationally renowned television program on topics related to the history of painting. There is no need to say more about his other skills.

The artistic level is certainly not a problem, but developing an art academy is definitely not something that can be solved by just having a certain level of skill; much more effort will definitely be needed.

For example, cultivating more masters and more high-level scholars.
