In 1978, I was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 143: One student is assigned one mentor just to build a lunar base earlier?

"No way?"

Luo Yang looked at Xie Wei with disbelief, "Many of the policies of the experimental class are based on your suggestions. Now there is a shortage of people in all aspects, and it will be difficult to have more people in the short term. The school can improve the level of talents..."

"Class teacher, I really have no other solution. The study pressure in our experimental class is already very high. Not only do we have to study intensively, but we also have to participate in very difficult practical training."

Xie Wei didn't expect that Luo Yang came to him just to ask if there was any way to further accelerate the growth of the students in the experimental class.

It's noisy.

If the speed goes any higher, I wonder how many people in the entire experimental class can endure.

"Class instructor, forcing things to grow is not a good thing. Especially since our class is training project leaders in various fields."

Seeing that Luo Yang was unmoved, Xie Wei hurriedly reminded him.

"You know about Yao Xinwei's situation, right?"

Luo Yang looked at Xie Wei, as if he wanted to see through Xie Wei's heart, which made Xie Wei dare not look at his eyes.

Without waiting for Xie Wei to answer, he continued, "Yao Xinwei was the last in the class, but after joining the computer engineering program, he changed a lot and achieved great results in such a short period of time... The other students in our experimental class all have good foundations..."

How can it be the same?
A good family environment brings more than just a good economic foundation.

Under the influence of two senior engineers since childhood, Yao Xinwei not only has a good foundation, but also has many opportunities to trial and error.

How many other students have been able to help them with their studies since childhood?
After entering university, many people not only have to rely on the state’s subsidies for college students to support themselves, but they also have to subsidize their families.

Xie Wei said nothing.

Yao Xinwei's situation is rather special.

"And Tang Long... I studied their growth paths in school. After they entered the project, they received more attention from their mentors, especially Tang Long. You led them step by step before. Even when you were not on the project, Kang Yi was always paying attention to them. He would help them solve any problems in a timely manner and give them more opportunities to get started..."

"???"

Xie Wei was puzzled and didn't understand what Luo Yang wanted to express.

"What do you think? If each student in the experimental class is assigned a mentor to guide them, will they grow faster?"

Luo Yang's words made Xie Wei's eyes suddenly widen.

Each person is assigned a mentor!
No joke?
But considering the other party’s identity, he is not only the instructor of the experimental class, but also the director of the school’s Academic Affairs Office!
"The principal disagrees?"

Xie Wei instantly understood Luo Yang's purpose in discussing this matter with him: his proposal to the principal might be rejected, but if Xie Wei, the principal's favorite, brought it up, and then Luo Yang or even some people he found spoke for him, Li Rui could not help but consider it.

"The school is short of people now..."

really!

Luo Yang's answer confirmed Xie Wei's guess.

"If there is a one-on-one tutor, you will definitely grow faster in learning. However, the students in the experimental class are currently participating in some basic projects... and there are 40 students in the experimental class now!"

There are 40 people, and they are involved in few projects, mainly in chemistry, computer, electromechanical, and radio.

It’s impossible to have a mentor for each of these projects, right?

"I think your idea that students can find their own interests in the process of getting involved in projects is very good. Yao Xinwei is the first one and he will definitely not be the last. Zhang Jingyan has made rapid progress since he went to the metal materials department. Feng Ke has also made amazing progress in the past few months since he followed Fang Pengju..."

Luo Yang looked at Xie Wei with a sincere expression.

His full-time job is the director of the school's academic department, and he is extremely busy with various things every day.

Just these few words made Xie Wei realize that the dean in front of him seemed to attach more importance to his identity as the head teacher of the experimental class.

Even though he was so busy, he still paid attention to every student in the class.

Maybe, just adjust these few majors?

"At present, not many students in the class have taken the initiative to stand up and say which major they want to choose..."

After thinking for a while, Xie Wei began to introduce the situation at that time.

When Tang Long was about to leave, Zhang Jingyan took the initiative to find him and said that he was not interested in chemistry and hoped to go to the Institute of Metal Materials. After Xie Wei agreed, Feng Ke and others also took the initiative to put forward their ideas.

"It's just because you guys live in the same dormitory and have a good personal relationship with each other, so they brought it up; other students..."

Luo Yang sighed.

He knew the situation in the class.

Xie Wei surpassed his classmates by a huge margin right from the beginning of the entrance examination, and during the learning process he demonstrated a level that his classmates could only look up to.

If the relationship is not good enough, who would dare to bring it up in front of Xie Wei?
A subsidy of 20 cents or half a pound of grain per day is very important to many people.

Most of the students in the experimental class were educated youth, and they had suffered when they were educated youth.

"How about I ask someone to do some statistics?"

Xie Wei thought about it and it seemed to be true. Mo Lingyu had mentioned to him vaguely before that some classmates in the class were not satisfied with the projects they were currently participating in.

At that time, Xie Wei did not think much about it, he just thought that the students participating in the experimental project were not satisfied with the daily subsidies.

"No, I will take the time to talk to every student. Only in this way can we really find out what majors they are interested in. Even for those students who don't know, we will make targeted suggestions based on their situations."

我们!

Luo Yang's words made Xie Wei realize that he was not the only one looking for him.

As for who that "we" was, Xie Wei didn't ask.

After communicating with Luo Yang and understanding his true thoughts and that he needed to talk to the principal himself, Xie Wei went directly to Li Rui's office.

"What are you doing here again? I have to tell you, we are really out of money now! Soon, the new students will report to school, and our new teaching building is not yet completed!"

Seeing Xie Wei, Li Rui's eyebrows twitched involuntarily several times.

Without waiting for Xie Wei to speak, he reflexively started to cry poor.

The principal's words made Xie Wei realize why Luo Yang took the initiative to talk to him about this matter.

According to the university's training plan, the first year is composed of public courses and a small number of professional basic courses; in the second year, it is basically professional basic courses and professional courses.

The situation of the experimental class is special. The common courses are advanced mathematics, chemistry, English, Russian and physics.

The content of these public courses is not basic, and is even more professional than the professional courses for professional students.

The current situation is also caused by the particularity of the experimental class - there is no division of majors.

Obviously, Luo Yang plans to let students choose their own majors. The experimental class will also only offer basic professional courses, while the professional courses will be taught by the tutors.

Or let the students learn on their own, and the tutor can answer questions and explain more professionally while leading the project.

"how?"

Seeing Xie Wei's eyes flickering there, it was obvious that he was not holding back his fart. Principal Li, who had suffered many losses from Xie Wei, asked hurriedly.

"Principal, this is it..."

Before coming, Xie Wei had organized his words and thought out his words.

He first used the fact that Yao Xinwei had developed a low-end chip that could reduce the cost of calculators.

"A new chip? It costs money again?"

Before Xie Wei could finish, Li Rui interrupted him with dissatisfaction, "Xie Wei, you said before that the technology research and development that is closely related to the future of the School Enterprise Office will be paid for by the School Enterprise Office... Calculate it yourself, from the establishment of the School Enterprise Office to now, how much funding have you asked from the school to the School Enterprise Office and its subordinate factories?"

Principal Li's face was filled with anger at this moment.

It was agreed that the school-enterprise office would pay profits to the school, which amounted to several million every year.

Principal Li, who loves money like his life, was tricked by Xie Wei, but the result was...

"Principal, this time we really don't need any money. The 1328 chip is modified based on the HZ80 chip. It has been handed over to Factory 14 for small-scale production. When the time comes, it will be directly used as the core processor of low-end calculators..."

It really doesn’t cost any money.

"you sure?"

Li Rui looked alert and didn't believe Xie Wei's words at all.

Every time this guy is eloquent, he says he doesn't want money at the beginning, but as he speaks, he finds himself in a trap.

Li Rui had reflected on this many times. After all, he was a veteran, so why was he always tricked by Xie Wei and had to pay money in the end? He never got a clear answer.

In the end, I can only think that it was because I was too partial to and too indulgent towards this kid.

"Two hundred percent sure. We have spread our wings too wide before. If we continue like this, not only will we not be able to use the school-enterprise office to help the school make money, but we may even have too many projects and none of them will bear fruit, which will drag down the school's funding."

Xie Wei spoke very sincerely.

He also said that it was because he discovered the problem that he did not agree to Feng Bingyi's request for him to participate in the Changkong-1 UAV improvement project.

"Well, you finally realized the problem."

Principal Li looked pleased.

The vigilance on his face did not relax at all.

Wasn’t Xie Wei like this every time before?
They first find all kinds of excuses in a sanctimonious manner to make you let down your guard, and then directly ask for money when you are most relaxed. They also emphasize how serious the consequences will be if you don’t give them the money, and even the previous investment will be wasted.

"but……"

really!

Principal Li's heart twitched.

Before he could speak, Xie Wei changed the subject, "Although we don't need more funds now, we need more people to conduct further research..."

"If we can hold on for a few more months, the class of 79 will enter the school, and the problem of staff shortage will be solved."

Principal Li didn't respond to Xie Wei's words at all.

"..."

Xie Wei looked at the old man speechlessly.

Am I really that excessive?
"Principal, the basic work can be easily solved by manpower. But what we need are some leaders who are creative, imaginative and experienced!"

Xie Wei said with a wry smile.

VIP?

Seeing that Xie Wei finally showed his true colors, Principal Li breathed a sigh of relief. "Who do you want to transfer to the project? I'll go and say hello!"

Just don't charge any money.

In the eyes of Principal Li, no matter what request Xie Wei made, as long as it did not require money, it was acceptable.

"I'm not transferring anyone to the project. Our projects are just small projects for the school. The professors and teachers in the school are all very busy..."

"so?"

Principal Li became alert again.

"I want to speed up the learning progress of students in the experimental class." Xie Wei knew that Li Rui had been guarding against him asking for funding when he least expected it. He felt helpless because the old man simply would not give him the funding he asked for directly.

After he told him his purpose, Li Rui just stared at him without saying anything.

"In the first year, students learn general courses and a small number of professional basic courses. In the second year, students start to focus on professional basic courses and professional courses. The experimental class is different from other classes with clear professional divisions..."

Li Rui frowned.

Didn’t Xie Wei say before that people in the experimental class have strong learning abilities and there was no need to divide them into majors first. Instead, they should be exposed to the basics of various majors first and then choose their majors?
Isn't it about interdisciplinary?

Now you're bringing this up again!
I'm afraid I'll first ask myself for something that's very difficult to do, and then ask for money...

"Here's what I think. We should first investigate and collect statistics on students' interests. If they don't have a clear goal, the school will assign them a major... However, the school needs to assign experienced tutors..."

"no problem!"

Li Rui agreed without hesitation.

Arrange a tutor!
There are quite a few tutors in the school. Usually, they not only do research on projects, but also need to supervise students.

For a mentor, it is the same whether he is herding one sheep or a flock of sheep.

"Okay, I'll talk to Director Luo and have him come up with a plan. What do you think?"

"No problem! Luo Yang is the dean of studies, and this is what he should do."

Li Rui just wanted to get rid of Xie Wei as soon as possible, fearing that this guy would change the subject and say that this was some kind of exploration project that required matching funds.

Seeing that Li Rui agreed readily, Xie Wei did not leave.

"Anything else?"

Li Rui was dissatisfied.

I don't want to deal with a sinister guy like Xie Wei who is disguised as a young man but has so many tricks up his sleeve.

But there is no way.

The students are their own.

"Principal, I'm afraid Director Luo won't believe it. How about you write a note and stamp it?"

Li Rui wrote a note without saying anything, then took out the official seal from his trouser pocket, blew on it and stamped it on the note.

Xie Wei took the note with the official seal on it, turned around and left without stopping for a moment.

Looking at his smooth movements, Principal Li was stunned for a long time, not knowing for a moment whether Xie Wei would turn around quickly.

It was not until Xie Wei's figure disappeared at the door for a while and Yuan Zhenyue came in with a batch of documents that he came to his senses and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, I knew you would have no problem finding him!"

Luo Yang was very excited when he saw the approval note in his hand.

By then, even if the principal wants to object, he won’t be able to do so.

Seeing that Luo Yang was extremely excited, the old man brought it up with the principal. The old man did not object at all. It was obvious that Luo Yang had not mentioned it to the principal before.

Xie Wei couldn't help but doubt Luo Yang's real intention: "Class teacher, are you really going to assign a tutor to each of our students?"

"It's not just a matter of assigning tutors. If we want the students in the experimental class to grow faster, we must let them participate in the most advanced project research. Only in the most advanced cutting-edge technology research projects can they gain the most knowledge and grow faster. This way, we won't waste the talents of our students in the experimental class..."

Nima!

Xie Wei almost swore.

I was tricked by Luo Yang.

He immediately realized why Luo Yang asked him to tell the old man about this matter instead of asking anyone else in the school to bring it up.

The old man had told him in person about his future development path and how he would upgrade if he stayed in school; and Luo Yang took advantage of this, otherwise the principal of any school would not agree to let a student who has not even reached sophomore year be exposed to the school's most confidential research topics!

Harbin Institute of Technology is not an ordinary school.

This is a military academy, and there are many cutting-edge military technology research going on in the school.

Many students in the experimental class may enter these projects to study, and then...

"Don't worry. The students who are still in the class know that it is difficult to go abroad again... They are all like you, with very high learning talents. I can't wait for them to follow the previous plan and first accumulate experience in basic projects with low requirements, and then enter the same basic research project..."

Facing Xie Wei, Luo Yang did not hide his purpose.

“Although it is safest to accumulate experience in basic research, it takes too long. In the previous course setting, we were worried that it would be too difficult and would make many people lose interest in learning and dampen their enthusiasm. Practice has proved that we were overthinking. Huge pressure will give real talents greater motivation to study!”

"It's an experimental class!"

Xie Wei had no chance to refute Luo Yang's words.

So far, the current Harbin Institute of Technology has become increasingly different from the Harbin Institute of Technology that I once remembered.

The experimental class of 78 is just the beginning.

In the future, there will be experimental classes at each level, selecting the best students who were admitted to the school that year, and then according to the current training model, they will be trained with a super luxurious teaching team and top-level resources starting from the freshman year!
"Why didn't you communicate with us before? It's too late to say anything now."

Looking at Xie Wei, Du Guowang sighed.

"It's actually no big deal. Even if it doesn't work out, it will be very beneficial for the students in the experimental class to be exposed to advanced technology in advance and to their future growth. And once it succeeds, these young people who have been standing on the shoulders of their mentors from the beginning will go further than us in the future!"

Liang Hongbin on the side refuted Du Guowang.

Although Du Guowang is the director of the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Department, he still has no access to some advanced military projects.

The Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering is more responsible for supporting other projects in subdivided technical fields. Only the core members of the research team know what direction it is used for.

我们!

When Xie Wei heard the word "we" from Liang Hongbin's mouth, he instantly realized that he was also involved in this matter.

"Yes, it was me who suggested to Luo Yang that you go find Li Rui."

Facing Xie Wei's puzzled look, Liang Hongbin did not hide anything. "Whenever we ask him about it, that old man Li Rui will directly refuse. Although he usually seems unreliable, he is more cautious than anyone else. Especially Wei Bingkun from your class, who directly chose to go abroad..."

If Liang Hongbin hadn't mentioned it, Xie Wei would have almost forgotten who Wei Bingkun was.

"What does this have to do with Wei Bingkun going abroad? He has no contact with the project."

Xie Wei could understand the concern that Wei Bingkun's going abroad might lead to the leakage of some cutting-edge research to foreigners.

But didn’t Wei Bingkun have any involvement in any project at all?

As mentioned before, students who have only been exposed to military technology programs are not allowed to go abroad.

"Xie Wei, you have been in the experimental class for such a long time, you should know that many of the students who were admitted to the experimental class have parents who are senior intellectuals, or have senior intellectuals around them..."

Liang Hongling took a sip of wine before speaking to Xie Wei with a serious face.

As soon as she said this, Xie Wei understood.

"For example, if Yao Xinwei's parents helped him get an opportunity to study abroad, could the school withstand the pressure from the higher-ups? Of course, this is just an example. The vast majority of senior intellectuals have a high level of awareness, but there are some..."

Liang Hongling spoke a lot more today than before.

What he said was something that Xie Wei had never even thought of.

Since I came to this era, I have come into contact with senior intellectuals like Du Guowang, all of whom are both red and professional, and none of them cares about personal honor and disgrace.

"Such a plan carries a great risk. The school can withstand the pressure, and students will eventually be assigned to relevant units. The more advanced the technology they are exposed to in school, the more important the unit they will be assigned to in the future, and the more critical the projects they will be exposed to... If such people go abroad to study and don't come back, the consequences will be... So if we bring it up, the principal will definitely not agree."

Liang Hongbin patiently explained to Xie Wei.

The benefits of such a training model are enormous, but the risks are also huge.

Xie Wei was even more puzzled as to why Li Rui would agree when he asked.

"As long as you don't go abroad, any loss is acceptable."

Liang Hongbin's words left Xie Wei speechless.

What does this have to do with yourself?
"Third-generation aircraft, drones, super-high-speed missiles..."

"..."

Xie Wei was stunned.

Even though I have brought it up, I can explain it by saying that I was just making it up, although few people believe me.

"You are only a freshman now. The school has never thought of cutting-edge technology before. Because of your presence, not only has research started, but it is also in the school. If you continue, even if you don't stay in school after graduating from graduate school, how many secrets do you think the school still has for you?"

Liang Hongbin's words made Xie Wei's face become serious.

Obviously, the school is still worried about me not going abroad.

However, the school did not force me in any way. Instead, it used these methods to continuously strengthen my sense of belonging to the school.

Even after knowing the purpose of the school, Xie Wei couldn't resent anyone.

Why hate?
All kinds of resources are tilted towards themselves regardless of cost; the same goes for various policies.

Under such circumstances, if Xie Wei still ran away, it would not prove that the school had completely failed, but would prove that people like Xie Wei would run away no matter what.

"You don't have to feel pressured. The school has all your detailed information since you were born. You worked as a technician at Hongguang Factory for five years, and it was not until the college entrance examination two years ago that you started to work hard... From the beginning, even though you turned the situation around at Hongguang Factory, you still didn't care much about things... When you came to school, did you really work as hard as you could? Did you really show your abilities to the fullest?"

Liang Hongbin's voice was very soft.

But it was like a heavy drum strike, hitting Xie Wei's heart heavily.

He never thought that the school had been worried about him, only because he had changed so much and the various purposes of doing things after traveling through time were very strong, making the entire school unclear about his true purpose and worried.

The reason for applying to Harbin Institute of Technology but ending up at Harbin Institute of Technology is totally untenable.

Despite such concerns, the school continued to allocate various resources to him and even allowed Xie Wei to do whatever he wanted.

Xie Wei, who had experienced it, knew very well how great the risks were.

“I will not go abroad.”

Xie Wei once again emphasized, "The reason why we chose Harbin Institute of Technology is not only that Harbin Institute of Technology has a complete military industry foundation, but also that Northeast China has the most concentrated military industry system in China. In the 70s, Harbin Institute of Technology moved south. Although Changsha Institute of Technology inherited most of it, many majors were moved to other colleges..."

By now, Xie Wei has already understood that Liang Hongbin represents the school.

It's unreasonable not to give a reasonable reason.

I can't always say that the reason I chose Harbin Institute of Technology is because in the future, Harbin Institute of Technology will be the world leader in the aerospace field among all universities, especially in the domestic exploration of the universe, and there will be no project without the presence of Harbin Institute of Technology.

In his era, Harbin Institute of Technology made an extraordinary contribution to the development of seventh-generation fighter jets capable of traveling through space and the atmosphere!
This thing was actually originally designed to transport supplies from Earth to the lunar base.

The lunar base was designed by Harbin Institute of Technology...

I did all this just in the hope of building a lunar base as soon as possible.

The reason is that Xie Wei himself also wants to visit the lunar base, but in his previous era, he had no chance at all.

And now...
