My art is too advanced.

Chapter 236 How many hundreds of millions will it take to keep Teacher Zhou? (Monthly vote requested!!!)

"Teacher Zhou, the research lab you wanted has been approved. The School of Arts has appointed distinguished professors and can recruit master's students." Dean Chen said.

"As for doctoral students, there may be some difficulties for the time being, but don't worry, Professor Zhou, we will work hard to achieve it as soon as possible."

Zhou Yue glanced at him and also smiled, "Then I'll trouble you, Dean Chen."

As for not giving him a place as a doctoral student, that's fine too.

Maybe he is afraid that it is easier for master's students to graduate, and feels that he may not have the ability to supervise doctoral students?
That's no problem.

The truth will be revealed with our own actions.

Zhou Yue said, "Now that things have been settled, I will give a lecture tomorrow. Everyone is welcome to come and listen."

"also."

Dean Chen nodded and also felt a little surprised.

Others must have concerns. After all, the title of distinguished professor is not just a title, but a real position of a fourth-level professor.

Professor of literature.

In terms of academic level, Dean Chen feels that Zhou Yue may not be able to meet the standards.

But there must be a foundation.

Moreover, Zhou Yue’s academic qualifications are sufficient.

Graduated with a PhD.

It may be abnormal for others to hire a professor in an interdisciplinary field, but it is also normal for Teacher Zhou?

In fact, Zhou Yue himself is a professor.

Zhou Yue didn't expect that Dean Chen had such great power.

For things that require procedures, I just help him get them done.

Moreover, it is not ambiguous at all.

Maybe he wanted to keep him.

Zhou Yue didn't think much about it.

After all, there is an academic lecture tomorrow, and then I will be able to let them see my level.

The news spread like wildfire.

Many people looked at him with great dismay.

Even Principal Yang called personally to inquire.

"Teacher Zhou wants to be transferred to the School of Arts? And he even got a professor title? Dean Chen applied directly to the province. I haven't even seen the documents."

"No, I just think that the study of oracle bones is very interesting. There is no special reason."

Principal Yang was silent for a while. "Teacher Zhou thinks that Ningda has reached the pinnacle in architecture, so he wants to expand in other directions?"

"If that's the reason, then I can report to the higher-ups and apply for new project start-up funds to ensure that we build some supporting facilities that are no less powerful than those at Jinghua."

Zhou Yue was also quite surprised.

Is Principal Yang planning to spend a lot of money?

It’s no worse than Jinghua, but it can’t be done with just a few hundred million.

He felt that Principal Yang was just promising him something.

After all, how could the higher-ups approve so much money?

However, Principal Yang is also anxious!

indeed.

Teacher Zhou no longer faces any major challenges in the field of architecture.

But it can’t be said to be business expansion?
Moreover, the expansion is so thorough?

Directly change the style.

Are you working on Oracle?
What's worth studying about that?
Don't say it's not worth studying.

Even if we really come up with some results, it’s useless!

Technology is the primary productive force!
Before, scholars in the humanities could be compared with scholars in science and engineering, but later, scholars in the humanities seemed to have disappeared, because in this era, it seemed that human beings did not need literature.

Literature is just a condiment and cannot be regarded as the main course in people's lives.

It is just a seasoning, or a simple feeling when climbing a mountain and looking far away, but it is not to say that literature is placed in a very important position. And oracle bone inscriptions?
This is even more of a surprise among surprises.

Even Teacher Guo came directly to look for him.

I wonder if he was stimulated by something to choose to study this kind of thing.

"Although I know your academic level is not good enough in the field of architecture, if you want to study new things, you can go across disciplines to study chemistry, theoretical physics, or mathematics. I know that your level in these three areas is definitely not low."

After all, this is also part of the discipline of architecture.

“But literature really has no future.”

"Look at Dean Chen. He has been studying hard all his life, but the money he earns may not be as much as one of our big projects."

"And the influence is not great. There is no point in studying old knowledge."

"In the past, Dean Chen always sat in the top seat during meetings, but in the past 20 years, even though his academic rating is still A+, his seat has been pushed back. When I was the dean, he even had to sit behind me."

"This is not a denial of his scholarship. Mr. Chen has always been highly respected. It's just that no one values ​​literature."

Zhou Yue also smiled and said, "Dean Chen can even apply for my title of professor of literature directly. I promised him that I would do a good job on this matter, so let's give it a try."

"If I really can't make any achievements in oracle bone script, then I will simply be a tutor in online literature research in the School of Literature."

"It's nothing, and it doesn't waste much time."

Teacher Guo seemed to be hesitant to talk, indeed.

Zhou Yue's time is very precious.

However, I have never seen him feel short of time.

No matter how big the project is, he can complete it in a short time.

"Okay, it's up to you to decide. But society doesn't really need literature these days, or even those ancient literary themes."

Teacher Guo left very quickly.

At this moment, Teacher Guo is already the vice principal.

Telling him this is just a friendly reminder.

“It’s a literary theme.”

That is, those about love, life and death, etc.

A proposition that has always appeared in literature.

"Life still needs these to spice it up."

However, literature is indeed becoming less and less, there are not so many writers, and their influence is even smaller.

But each generation has its own literature.

For example, online novels.

Many people still care about this kind of fast-paced thing.

The most fundamental thing is words.

Oracle bone script is the source of ancient writing.

Many things can be deciphered and analyzed from modern or ancient Chinese.

It relies on later characters and rhymes.

For example, some poems that do not seem to rhyme now, in a certain period of time, the antithetical words belonged to the same rhyme group.

So it is still necessary to do it.

Can't academics be abstract?

Zhou Yue didn't think much about it.

Even for the lecture tomorrow, I haven’t prepared anything today, and there’s no need to prepare at all.

No pictures are needed.

He has a lot of other things to do and there is no need for him to keep paying attention to this thing. It may be that other people felt a little emotional after hearing about it.

But despite his feelings, no one thought that he would not be able to achieve anything if he turned to studying oracle bone inscriptions.

Even Principal Yang thought so, and was willing to spend hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars to keep him and continue his research in architecture.
