The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 208: Speech Red Envelope Problem
May 15, 1982, Yanjiagang Airport in Ice City.

Wang Duoyu brought Liu Xiaoli, Wang Meili, Wang Meihe and Wang Junhong to the airport to board a plane to Chengdu in the Sichuan province.

In fact, Wang Duoyu really wanted to choose a means of transportation like train, because the little guy was only over one year old and it was not appropriate for him to take a plane.

You have to know that today's airplanes are very noisy.

Even though Wang Duoyu had long wanted to take action on aircraft noise, the most important point was that there was still no way to solve it.

That's money!
To reduce the noise of civil airliners, it is not enough to just develop noise-reducing materials. It is also necessary to meet various technical standards and consider the manufacturing cost and operating cost of the aircraft itself.

So, after all, it’s still a matter of money.

Finally, the reason why Wang Duoyu chose to travel by plane was also due to time considerations. Secondly, he himself might not be able to bear the travel time of thirty, forty, or even fifty or sixty hours on the train.

What a waste of life.

The last point is that Wang Duoyu prepared a pair of noise-isolating headphones to prevent the little guy from being attacked by the roar of airplanes as much as possible.

But not long after the plane took off, the little one started crying.

Because the roar of the plane was still very loud, the little guy was very scared.

In addition to the noise, there is also the feeling of weightlessness during takeoff due to the rapid climb.

And this feeling is the culprit that causes the little guy to cry, because it makes him feel too insecure.

It wasn't until Wang Duoyu held the little guy and coaxed him for a while that he finally calmed down.

The little guy stopped crying, and Wang Duoyu and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

During the rest of the flight, even when encountering turbulence, the little guy didn't cry again.

I didn't see him cry until the plane landed.

In this way, the enhanced version of the noise-isolating headphones developed by Wang Duoyu is still very effective.

Of course, this kind of noise-isolating headphones only blocks external sounds, not all sounds, so that the little ones are completely in a zero-decibel environment. Moreover, this kind of headphones has no speakers and will not play any songs.

In this era, mobile music listening devices are just radios. Sony radios are very small and exquisite mobile listening devices, but you certainly can't use the radio on an airplane.

In addition, there were no Walkmans, MP3 players, etc., let alone devices like mobile phones.

So the noise-isolating headphones that Wang Duoyu made can only isolate noise.

The plane landed smoothly at Chengdu Airport. Wang Duoyu and his group stayed in Chengdu for two days. They went to the zoo to see the giant pandas and experienced the local hot pot.

Super spicy!

It’s numb again!

But you know what, the taste is really good!
Two days later, Wang Duoyu and his team headed to Jiuzhaigou, three or four hundred kilometers away.

In fact, they should have brought Lou Jianguo with them when they came to Sichuan this time, after all, he was a local.

However, Lou Jianguo was about to graduate and had been very busy recently, so Wang Duoyu did not tell him about this matter.

On the other hand, ever since what happened in the Mohe primeval forest last year, Yuan Jigang and his companions no longer dared to hunt with Wang Duoyu.

Although Wang Duoyu repeatedly emphasized that this matter had nothing to do with them, he even said that he would continue hunting in the future.

But Yuan Jigang and the others still didn't dare to say anything.

At the same time, Wang Duoyu himself was indeed very busy. In addition, Lu Ruoxi and Yuan Xueyi were still staying in Harbin Institute of Technology and seemed not to have given up. This made Wang Duoyu avoid participating in some group activities as much as possible.

It took Wang Duoyu and his team a day and a half to finally arrive at Jiuzhaigou.

Because the roads here are all mountainous and very difficult to walk on, you have to take a car, change to a horse, and then walk on the mountain roads, so it is really difficult to get to Jiuzhaigou.

However, any difficulty is worth it, especially after seeing the scenery of Jiuzhaigou, Liu Xiaoli and the other three exclaimed repeatedly, saying that they had really seen the world.

In fact, the scenery of Jiuzhaigou is indeed very beautiful.

Wang Duoyu had come here twice in his previous life, once before the earthquake and once after the earthquake.

The Jiuzhaigou earthquake occurred in 2017. The magnitude of the earthquake was 7.0 and the depth of the epicenter was 20 kilometers. The damage to the scenery of Jiuzhaigou was very severe.

Coming here again in this life, Wang Duoyu was even more surprised because there was no commercial tourism atmosphere.

The original appearance seemed even more flawless, freeing his mind and instantly freeing him of stress.

Click!

Under the film camera, the figures of Wang Duoyu and others were captured by the lens.

In the next few days, Wang Duoyu and his friends wandered around Jiuzhaigou, strolling along the small paths.

Although the roads here are very small and you have to ride a horse, the scenery is indeed breathtaking.

Therefore, even if some minor incidents occur during the game, they are acceptable.

At this time in mid-May, the temperature in Jiuzhaigou is neither too cold nor too hot, which is very suitable for travel.

After traveling for more than a week and experiencing some of the local wild delicacies in Jiuzhaigou, Wang Duoyu and his friends finally returned home.

That's right, he came here purely to relieve stress, not to hunt.

After the trip, Wang Duoyu and his friends returned to Chengdu, stayed there for a day, and then went to the mountain city of Chongqing.

"Boss, has there been any comment from above regarding the Three Gorges Dam project downstream? It's been all these years, and nothing has been finalized yet?"

While visiting the mountain city, Wang Duoyu stood by the river in front of the Liberation Monument, looking at the surging river in front of him, and suddenly asked.

Lin Dehong came along on this trip and accompanied him throughout.

Hearing Wang Duoyu's words, Lin Dehong shook his head and said:

"The Three Gorges Dam involves so many things; it's not something that can be built just like that."

Wang Duoyu certainly knew this, because someone had said that if the Three Gorges Dam was really built, and someone were to use a nuclear bomb to blow it up, the plains in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River would be in tatters.
Therefore, from the "National Construction Strategy" proposed by Mr. Sun Yat-sen, to the many times we sent expert teams to survey in the 1950s, to the present day, we still have not made up our minds.

It’s just because the Three Gorges Dam involves so much.

"Well, actually, I do have a few immature suggestions. Let's talk about them when we get back."

Hearing Wang Duoyu's words, Lin Dehong was stunned for a moment: "No, Duoyu, why are you like this? You're just talking in the middle of something and you're really going to drive me crazy."

"Leader, if I tell you now, can I still continue traveling?" Wang Duoyu rolled his eyes at the other party and turned away.

Liu Xiaoli and the others immediately covered their mouths and laughed secretly, especially after seeing Lin Dehong's dark face, they laughed even more happily.

In the following time, Wang Duoyu and his team stayed in Chongqing for almost five days. As June was approaching, they went to Shanghai.

Now that you're out, why not go for a walk?

Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to spend the money.

Shanghai in 1982 was big, but very backward.

Currently, Puxi has relatively good economic development, while Pudong is still a wasteland with few people.

Standing on the Bund and looking at Lujiazui on the opposite bank, it is really desolate.

Liu Xiaoli and the others all focused their attention on the Republican-era buildings on the Bund, including the HSBC Building, the Asia Building, the Shanghai Club Building, etc.

These buildings have different styles and are characterized by the times.

After a day of sightseeing in Shanghai, I don't know where Fudan University got the news from, but they actually contacted Wang Duoyu and invited him to give a speech at Fudan.

Su Buqing personally came to the hotel where Wang Duoyu and his friends were staying to invite them. His attitude was so sincere that Wang Duoyu had no reason to refuse.

Before, whether he was in Chengdu or Chongqing, the universities there seemed to be blind, or maybe Lin Dehong and his team did a good job of keeping it secret, so those universities did not come to disturb Wang Duoyu.

Of course, Wang Duoyu guessed that these universities might really not know, or they might know but did not dare to disturb Wang Duoyu.

The reason is very simple. Wang Duoyu's position is too high, so he probably won't come to their schools to give speeches.

A notice was posted on the bulletin board of the Department of Mathematics teaching building at Fudan University.

As soon as this notice came out, the broadcast came along and the entire mathematics department was in an uproar.

"Director Chen is so awesome! He actually invited Professor Wang, a math expert, to come here."

"Oh my god, this can't be true? Then I have to hurry and grab a good seat."

"This should be true, but why did Professor Wang come here so suddenly? I'm not prepared at all. What should I do?"

The entire Department of Mathematics at Fudan University is a mess.

When Wang Duoyu arrived at the auditorium, it was already crowded.

Su Buqing is now the president of Fudan University, and the head of the Department of Mathematics is Chen Chuanzhang.

The two of them are now accompanying Wang Duoyu, introducing him to some professors from the Department of Mathematics at Fudan University.

In fact, Wang Duoyu had seen some of these people before, but he had only seen them before and did not know them.

Because when Wang Duoyu held lectures at Peking University and Harbin Institute of Technology, Fudan University also sent a lot of people to attend.

Of course, the people introduced now are actually of no use, because Wang Duoyu will not deal with them.

After all, Wang Duoyu has very few opportunities to deal with these people.

After the introduction, the speech officially began.

"My visit to Fudan University was a surprise. I came to Shanghai to relax, but I didn't expect President Su to be so welcoming. That's why I came here today."

"When I was at Harbin Institute of Technology, I almost never gave speeches because I didn't like to talk about empty things with everyone. So I just let everyone ask questions and I answered them here."

"Today's speech is divided into two parts. In the first part, I will briefly talk about the books I read before and after entering Harbin Institute of Technology. I will briefly talk about some of the books that have been very helpful to my growth."

"The second half will be open for questions, so you can prepare your own questions while I'm speaking. Of course, I hope your questions won't be too general or overly broad, but rather more practical."

After a brief explanation, Wang Duoyu began today's formal speech.

Since Su Buqing invited him so sincerely, and there was a red envelope to be received, Wang Duoyu was of course happy to help.

Last December, at his son's first birthday party, Chen Shiing-Shen gave him a red envelope of US$3,000, hoping to invite him to give a speech at Nankai University on the occasion of his son's first birthday party.

Since then, many people seem to have roughly understood Wang Duoyu's "performance price", which is very expensive, but definitely worth the money.

The red envelope that Su Buqing gave was not in US dollars, because he didn't have much US dollars, so what he gave was talent!
Because Wang Duoyu is not short of money, but Su Buqing and others are short of money, so instead of giving money, it is better to give people.

All 25 places for undergraduate graduates in science and engineering at Fudan University were given to Wang Duoyu.

It is now the beginning of June. In fact, these graduates have already been reserved by major ministries and scientific research institutions, because these are the candidates who took the college entrance examination in 1977 and 1978, and are naturally completely different from the previous workers, peasants and soldiers.

However, Su Buqing and his team certainly had other 'hidden places', and after some searching, they were able to squeeze out 25 places.

Just like the planned economy in the past, the production task assigned by the higher authorities is 100, but in the actual production process, more than 100 will definitely be produced, but 110 or 115 will be produced.

If there are any unqualified products later, or if there is an urgent need for more products, then the extra products than planned can come in handy.

It was precisely because of the "red envelope" given by Su Buqing that Wang Duoyu readily agreed. Otherwise, he would not have come to Fudan to give a speech.

Whatever people do, there is a purpose.

It seems like Wang Duoyu came out to play this time just to relax.

At the same time, it was also sending a signal to Lu Ruoxi and Yuan Xueyi that he really didn't want to struggle anymore, so please let him go!
Although with Wang Duoyu's current status, the families behind Lu Ruoxi and Yuan Xueyi have no influence on him at all.

They might even be trying to please Wang Duoyu, but he really didn't like this kind of persistent approach, and he was indeed scared.

If he were to date someone like Lu Ruoxi, they would definitely get married, but he was afraid of getting a marriage certificate.

Because once the marriage certificate is obtained, it is almost impossible to divorce. Even if he encounters any cold violence in the marriage relationship, he has no choice but to endure it.

But I can't leave you, and that's the most frustrating thing.

In later times, he was still very young at the age of twenty-six, and he didn't want to be trapped by these things.

In the auditorium, Wang Duoyu stood on the podium, sharing his growth experience with a smile, and spoke of his books one after another.

The Fudan students were all busy recording the names of the books.

But as Wang Duoyu introduced the books he read after entering Harbin Institute of Technology, they suddenly became numb.

After entering Harbin Institute of Technology, Wang Duoyu read more books, most of which they had never heard of because they were foreign works.

As a nationally renowned university, Fudan University Library also has many very professional books and is very comprehensive.

Because Fudan University also orders some professional journals, magazines, and books reprinted from abroad every year, these books are translated with the help of professional translation agencies in Beijing.

There are many institutions in Beijing, including some that specialize in translating foreign information, professional magazines, etc.

These institutions receive a large number of foreign journals and magazines every day. These are reprinted and republished magazines, and do not require the use of foreign exchange.

But these are not the latest journals or magazines. Some of them are cutting-edge scientific works from three or four years ago, or even five or six years ago.

After the translation is completed by these institutions, it will be handed over to the printing factory for printing, and then distributed to major scientific research institutions, universities, etc. across the country. Fudan University specifically orders such books.

However, these books often gather dust in libraries, and few students can understand them.

why?
Because before 1977, those were all workers, peasants and soldiers who came to college, and their talents and knowledge were very average.

These workers, peasants and soldiers who were recommended to go to college without taking the college entrance examination are of varying quality. It is very good for them to understand the basic theories, not to mention wanting to understand those cutting-edge scientific and technological works.

The college students sitting in the audience at this time had experienced the college entrance examination and had a very solid foundation, but when they heard the magazines introduced by Wang Duoyu, to be honest, they had read them, but not all of them.

For example, in March last year, Qi Youhui, a graduating student from Fudan University, went to Harbin Institute of Technology for an interview.

However, when he participated in the interview with students from Harbin Institute of Technology of the same period, he could clearly feel some differences, that is, his knowledge was not as broad as that of students from Harbin Institute of Technology.

If students from the Department of Mathematics at Fudan University are compared with students from the Department of Mathematics at Harbin Institute of Technology, the gap will be even more obvious.

The original admission scores of students from the two schools were actually not much different.

But after entering school, there will be a gap.

At Harbin Institute of Technology, these students can not only communicate with foreigners on a daily basis, but also occasionally take basic courses taught by top mathematicians such as Wiles. At the very least, they can go to the lecture hall to listen to Wang Duoyu's communication class.

Fudan University cannot match these soft powers alone.

In addition, these students can also participate in some scientific research projects within the school. Although they are mostly doing odd jobs, there are always some professors or researchers who like to assign some more basic tasks to these students.

Because these undergraduates are very "cheap".

The key is that they are very proactive.

So for now, Fudan University has been left behind by Harbin Institute of Technology, and in a few years, the gap will be even bigger.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Wang Duoyu has finished sharing some of his own ideas.

Book sharing can actually best illustrate some issues. He briefly explained some of the books he has read, and also focused on sharing some books that he believes have had a great impact on him.

After the sharing session, the next step was to ask questions. Wang Duoyu was not too disappointed by the questions raised by the students, but he was not very happy either, because he had been mentally prepared.

The questions raised by Fudan University students are actually very different from those raised by Harbin Institute of Technology students.

Wang Duoyu had clearly said that they should be down-to-earth and not raise overly broad questions, which would not help them at all.

After the speech, Wang Duoyu had dinner at Fudan University before returning to his hotel.

At this time, there were already several guests waiting for him in the hotel.

Leaders from several schools including Shanghai Jiaotong University, East China Normal University, Tongji University, and East China University of Science and Technology all came over, wanting to invite Wang Duoyu to give a speech at their school, and the "red envelopes" were already prepared.

It is obvious that these school leaders are not fools.

After learning that Wang Duoyu was going to Fudan University to give a speech, they were all very happy.

Especially Shanghai Jiaotong University, they and Fudan University can be described as two bickering rivals, just like Peking University and Tsinghua University in Beijing, they compete with each other and must strive for the first place.

Fudan University has taken the lead in this wave, so Shanghai Jiaotong University must take it back.

So in order to please Wang Duoyu, the president of Shanghai Jiaotong University not only gave out a red envelope of real money, but also promised thirty places for graduates.

This is definitely a big deal.

Is it worth going to such great lengths just to invite Wang Duoyu to give a speech at school?

Again, the calculations among top universities to outdo each other take decades or even hundreds of years.

Temporary wins and losses are nothing. The one who laughs last is the real winner.

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Wang Duoyu only accepted the invitation from Shanghai Jiaotong University. As for schools like Tongji University, he really had the will but not the ability.

However, he did suggest that students from these schools come to Harbin Institute of Technology for "further studies" during the winter and summer vacations every year, to experience the learning atmosphere of Harbin Institute of Technology, or participate in some scientific research projects of Harbin Institute of Technology.

The specific details on how to do it and what regulations to set can be discussed with Secretary Liu Deben and President Lu Gongliang. Wang Duoyu will not be involved in these matters.

Everyone was very happy to hear this proposal.

The president of Shanghai Jiao Tong University even directly stated that their school would strive to be the first school to establish such a cooperative relationship with Harbin Institute of Technology.

The next day, Wang Duoyu visited some architectural relics of the revolution and gave a speech at Shanghai Jiaotong University in the afternoon.

After the meeting, he did not stay at Shanghai Jiaotong University for dinner, but came back to have dinner with Liu Xiaoli and others.

The next morning, Wang Duoyu returned home.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at Yanjiagang Airport in Ice City.

I went out for a walk and more than half a month passed.

It was May 15th when I left, but it was already June 5th when I returned to Harbin Institute of Technology.

After coming back, Wang Duoyu did not rest. The next day, June 6th, he went back to the office early in the morning after breakfast.

Just as he was about to leave, Liu Deben and Lu Gongliang arrived at his door.

"Duoyu, you're back. Did you have a good rest last night?"

After meeting and exchanging a few pleasantries, Liu Deben and the others invited him to go back to the office with them. Along the way, they just chatted about Wang Duoyu's travels.

And we talked about some recent changes in Harbin Institute of Technology, just chatting, not talking about business.

After arriving at the place and sitting down, Liu Deben immediately got straight to the point.

On the day before Wang Duoyu left last month, Liu Deben mentioned to him that Harbin Institute of Technology would set up all majors in engineering and science. That is, Harbin Institute of Technology would have all the cutting-edge technology majors in science and engineering at home and abroad.

At that time, Wang Duoyu directly stated that this matter was a bit serious and he would talk about it after he came back.

Now that he has returned from his travels, isn't it time to tell him?

"Secretary, I know you've already applied to the higher-ups. The reason you came to me is simply to ask me to help write a letter to them, to give you some leverage to persuade the higher-ups, right?"

Wang Duoyu said:

"Actually, this sounds very troublesome, because it involves so many aspects, and there's no guarantee that any students will enroll in such a major. On the other hand, considering that establishing these majors will increase our school's enrollment, other schools like Peking University won't be happy about it, right?"

Liu Deben and Lu Gongliang nodded repeatedly with serious expressions.

Liu Deben and his companions were not worried about the above point. After all, the college entrance examination candidates did not understand these things. Those who were willing to apply would study, and those who were not willing would not study.

As for the fact that this major is not very popular, resulting in very few students enrolling in it, will it be cancelled?
Of course not, because there is a word called adjustment. What's more, the admission score of Harbin Institute of Technology is high, so how could no one apply?
On the contrary, the latter point is the problem that Liu Deben and others are worried about.

The current president of Peking University is Zhang Longxiang, who has extensive experience and is a top talent in chemistry and biology, but he has now moved to an administrative position.

Since he is a top talent, his brain must be more than enough.

Moreover, Zhang Longxiang is 66 years old this year. Although he is old, he is definitely in his prime.

Even though the rise of Harbin Institute of Technology is unstoppable today, Zhang Longxiang will still try to find ways to stop it. For example, he is the biggest obstacle to Harbin Institute of Technology's plan to set up all majors in science and engineering.

There are only so many top scorers in the national college entrance examination every year. It is one thing that most of the mathematics top scorers go to Harbin Institute of Technology, but now Harbin Institute of Technology is trying to make some tricks to get rid of other talents. How can this be allowed?
The Department of Mathematics at Harbin Institute of Technology is the best department in the country, no doubt about it. Even if we look around the world, only Princeton University and Moscow State University are qualified to compete with it, and no other university can.

So Peking University has no way to defeat Harbin Institute of Technology, but in other science and engineering disciplines, such as mechanical engineering, materials science, physics, chemistry, etc., Harbin Institute of Technology has no chance of surpassing Peking University.

Seeing Liu Deben and Lü Gongliang nod, Wang Duoyu continued:

"Actually, this is a very simple matter. You can tell the higher-ups that Harbin Institute of Technology, as one of the Seven Sons of National Defense, must be number one in the country in science and engineering."

"In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor died for his country and the Son of Heaven guarded the national border. Harbin Institute of Technology, located in the north, shoulders the heavy responsibility of national defense. We not only cultivate talents for the country and society, but also need to complete more scientific research tasks and become a leader in national defense science and technology."

"Didn't I bring back the Mach 5 fighter jet project last month? This project is a huge one hosted by Harbin Institute of Technology, involving talents from all walks of life. Secretary, you can use this as an excuse."

"Furthermore, Harbin Institute of Technology will certainly continue to earn more foreign exchange every year, which will not only promote the development of our national economy, but also ensure that we will not neglect our national defense science and technology construction. Walking on two legs is definitely better than walking on one leg. We must grasp both hands and make both hands strong."

"As for asking me to write a letter, that's not a big problem. I will definitely help."

After Wang Duoyu finished speaking, Liu Deben and the others were skeptical, but the former no longer wanted to continue discussing this topic. Instead, he talked about the cooperation plan he mentioned to the leaders of Shanghai Jiaotong University and other universities when he was visiting Shanghai.

This matter is all beneficial to Harbin Institute of Technology.

Because Harbin Institute of Technology now has many scientific research projects, but it lacks talents.

There will be many benefits if we can establish cooperative relationships with universities such as Shanghai Jiaotong University and Fudan University.

In addition to talking about these things, Wang Duoyu and the other two chatted for about half an hour until there was a knock on the door. At this time, Wang Duoyu saw the big clock hanging on the wall, which pointed to ten twenty-five.

Half a morning passed just like that.

The person who came in through the door was Lin Dehong. He wanted to chat with Wang Duoyu.

In this case, Wang Duoyu had no choice but to leave first.

Wang Duoyu returned to the office in the mathematics department's teaching building with Lin Dehong. Just as Wang Duoyu sat down and the tea was not even brewed, Lin Dehong was ready to leave.

The latter came to him for two things: one was some suggestions on the Three Gorges Hydropower Station, and the other was about the Mach 5 fighter project.

The first thing was easy. Wang Duoyu directly took out a notebook from the bookshelf and tore off a few pages of paper from it.

These were some words he had written down while reading a book, and they were some immature suggestions for the Three Gorges Hydropower Station.

It’s an immature suggestion, and it’s true.

Because there are many books on Wang Duoyu's bookshelf, when he browses through the materials, he will delve into some of the content he likes.

The Three Gorges Hydropower Station project is of great importance, so of course he is also very interested in it.

why?
The reason is very simple. Our country is currently facing a shortage of electricity and the power transmission technology is very backward.

The electric bicycles produced by Diao Pai Company have good sales in foreign countries, but their sales in China are far lower than those in foreign countries. This is mainly due to power issues.

If we do not help to solve this problem, it will be difficult for products developed by Harbin Institute of Technology to have good sales in China in the future.

The country has a large population, which forms a huge base.

If this basic base can be developed and has sufficient purchasing power, Wang Duoyu will not be too worried even if the foreign market is lost in the future.

This is what is called "If you don't plan for the future, you will have immediate worries."

The second thing is even simpler. The Mach 5 fighter jet project has been approved, and the funds have not yet arrived, but Harbin Institute of Technology has already started to implement it.

A lot of the funds were advanced by Harbin Institute of Technology.

Because it is graduation season now, Harbin Institute of Technology must be trying to recruit talents. Otherwise, how can so many newly established projects be run without enough people?
The material of the engine, the most critical device in a fighter jet, is the most important part.

Therefore, the Department of Materials Science and Engineering of Harbin Institute of Technology took on the most and heaviest tasks.

Various new material research and development projects, such as carbon composite materials, new ultra-high strength steel materials, high-temperature alloy materials, ceramic-based composite materials, new intermetallic compound materials, resin-based composite materials, metal-based composite materials, etc.

These materials may be used in future aero-engines or other applications. In short, it is better to be prepared.

The aviation engine materials needed for Mach 5 fighter jets have very high requirements for high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, conductivity, wear resistance, thermal expansion coefficient, damping performance, and strength.

Taking metal matrix composite materials as an example, they are widely used in key components such as compressor blades, turbofan blades, and sealing elements.

This is because metal matrix composites have many excellent properties, such as high transverse and shear strength, good toughness and fatigue performance.

Therefore, the Department of Materials Science and Engineering of Harbin Institute of Technology has indeed shouldered a very important responsibility.

It is definitely impossible for a team of professors and experts like Lao Yuanchang to undertake numerous scientific research projects while also balancing teaching tasks and assisting in promoting the research and development of these new materials.

Therefore, the introduction of a large number of talents is inevitable.

At the same time, it is also necessary to continuously expand the enrollment scale in the future after this year and next year, so that Harbin Institute of Technology can cultivate top talents on its own.

The two things that Lin Dehong came to discuss with Wang Duoyu were quickly resolved, so he sat down for a while and then got up and left.

Seeing this, Wang Duoyu did not try to keep the other party.

But most of the morning had passed, and now he could only flip through the book. Forget it, he decided to go see Yang Nianzhen and the others.

In April this year, the seventh and eighth issues of "HIT Mathematical Journal" were published, and the ninth issue is also under intensive review.

It has been a year and a half since the visiting scholar exchange group came to Harbin Institute of Technology at the end of the previous year. During this time, Harbin Institute of Technology has finally ushered in a surge in papers.

Rong Guangxia and the other six were also holding back their big moves, but they couldn't make it in the ninth round. However, they would definitely have no problem making the tenth or eleventh round.

In the afternoon, Andrew Wiles personally took the thirteen papers he had reviewed to Wang Duoyu's office.

"Professor Wang, these are the papers we reviewed for this issue. There are thirteen in total, and they are all of very high quality."

Hearing the other party's words, Wang Duoyu smiled and nodded.

This is really a good thing.

Andrew Wiles's position as editor-in-chief of the journal immediately reduced Wu Congxin's workload and made the journal more formal and standardized.

All work is done according to the process, which is perfect.

Wang Duoyu did not waste time. He looked through the six papers this afternoon. To be honest, he was quite surprised when he saw the papers by Maxim, Jean Bourgain and others.

Maxim submitted a paper of very high quality, arguably the best among the thirteen papers.

Jean Bourgain also submitted a paper, and its quality seems to be very good.

What surprised Wang Duoyu the most was Zelmanov, who is currently a professor at the Institute of Mathematics in the Polar Bear Empire. Logically, he should not have submitted articles to the Harbin Institute of Technology Mathematical Journal.

After all, the Polar Bear Empire also has its own journals, so there is no need to submit to Harbin Institute of Technology.

Besides, to be honest, the current international context is very complicated.

Even Maxim came to Harbin Institute of Technology with a special mission.

But now it seems that Zelmanov did this for some unspeakable reason.

No matter what, if the other party dares to submit an article, Wang Duoyu will of course accept it.

"Perhaps we can try to persuade him to come to Harbin Institute of Technology?"

Thinking of this, Wang Duoyu picked up his pen and started writing the letter without saying anything.

Zelmanov was born in 1955, just one year older than Wang Duoyu.

The fact that he is already a professor at the Institute of Mathematics of the Polar Bear Empire Academy of Sciences at such an age is enough to show that he has great talent.

But it is still very difficult to win the Fields Medal.

Given his age, he could have won the Fields Medal in 1986, 1990, and 1994. There is no other possibility.

Forget about 1982, Zelmanov was no match for Wang Duoyu, Alain Conne, Shing-Tung Yau and others, and he might not have been successful in 1986 either.

The current consensus in the global mathematics community is that the 1986 Fields Medal is likely to be won by Wang Duoyu and his disciples.

Although it sounds outrageous, who knows?
Anyway, the actions of people like John Milnor, Shing-Tung Yau, and William Thurston are already very intriguing.

If it was in 1990, that’s too far away. Who knows if there will be any complications?

If he had wasted time until 1994, Zelmanov would have had to fight a desperate battle. By then, he would have been in his thirties and might not have been in such good physical condition.

So the best way is to prepare in advance.

"Hello, Professor Zelmanov."

Wang Duoyu wrote on the letter that he had met the other party at a lecture at Peking University in 1979, and the other party had asked questions during the question-and-answer session.

Although it was just a chance encounter, it was enough.

Wang Duoyu read through the papers of several other mathematics doctoral students except Zelmanov, and finally eliminated two papers of lower quality.

There are eleven papers left in total, so they can be published in two issues.

In other words, the papers for the ninth and tenth issues are ready.

If it remains so productive, then the "HIT Mathematical Journal" may really become a monthly journal.

However, this is quite normal.

As more and more top mathematicians gather at Harbin Institute of Technology, "Harbin Institute of Technology Mathematical Journal" will definitely become the first choice for many mathematicians and mathematics doctors to publish their papers.

After all, who doesn't want to compete with the world's top mathematicians?

After finishing these tasks, Wang Duoyu started his own work.

June is the end of this semester and the final exams are not far away.

After Wang Duoyu returned to Harbin Institute of Technology, he devoted himself to his work, and Liu Xiaoli successfully stayed in his home.

About half a month later, the two sisters Wang Meihe and Wang Meili suddenly asked to move out on this day, which confused their ninth brother.

Everything was fine, why do you suddenly want to move out?

Could it be that Liu Xiaoli wants to burn her bridges after crossing them?
