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

Chapter 59: The despised Peking University, a part-time intern researcher at the Institute of Mathematics?
After Wang Duoyu introduced Lin Dehong's identity, Shen Jiannan and the others immediately had two words written on their faces: embarrassing!
Xing Yongfu, Shen Jiannan and others thought that Lin Dehong was from Harbin Institute of Technology and came to compete with them for Wang Duoyu. Who made the latter's first choice Harbin Institute of Technology?
Despite the awkwardness, Shen Jiannan quickly recovered and looked at Lin Dehong, asking, "Hello, Chief of Staff Lin. I wonder what brings you to Mr. Wang? Could you please wait a moment? We have something urgent to discuss with him. After we're done, you can talk to him. Is that okay with that?"

"That's definitely not possible!" Lin Dehong shook his head, refusing to give in. His attitude was very tough, but he still explained:
"Comrade Wang Duoyu previously helped our troops complete the design and development of a firearm. Now they've sent a specialist to inspect and verify it, so he has to be on site."

hiss!
Shen Jiannan and Xing Yongfu both gasped and looked at Wang Duoyu with incredible shock in their eyes. Tao Fangqi was also slightly surprised when he heard this, because he had heard Lao Yuanchang briefly talk about Wang Duoyu's performance in the Bingcheng Steel Plant before, so he knew something about the situation.

But Tao Fangqi had not expected that Lin Dehong attached so much importance to Wang Duoyu. After all, the inspection commissioner sent from above would definitely not be just a leader, but would bring a team of firearms experts. As a firearms designer, Wang Duoyu would definitely need to be present to provide technical-related answers. In other words, the firearm designed by Wang Duoyu was probably not that simple.

"Staff Officer Lin, I wonder if we could come along for a tour? Don't worry, we're professors from Peking University, and this is Professor Tao Fangqi from the Institute of Mathematics and Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. We're all aware of the military's confidentiality regulations and will guarantee no leaks."

Xing Yongfu asked, because he already knew that he might not be able to convince Wang Duoyu today, because Wang Duoyu would definitely leave with Lin Dehong soon. In this case, it would be better to go with the flow and follow the latter to the army.

In this way, even if Harbin Institute of Technology knew the news and rushed to Qingshan Township, it would definitely be empty-handed.

Lin Dehong was about to speak when Wang Duoyu spoke first. "Teachers, I've made it very clear just now. I don't want to repeat myself. Harbin Institute of Technology has always been my first goal. Even if I don't go to Harbin Institute of Technology, I will go to the National University of Defense Technology or the Beijing Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, not Peking University."

One of the Seven Sons of National Defense is Wang Duoyu's goal. Although Peking University is the top university in the country, it is a comprehensive university and is too famous, which makes it difficult for him to concentrate on his work.

Upon hearing this, Shen Jiannan and Xing Yongfu looked at each other and saw the helplessness and confusion in each other's eyes. When had Peking University ever been so despised?

Tao Fangqi said at this time, "Student Wang, I still hope you will consider our Chinese Academy of Sciences again. Your mathematical talent should not be wasted on other subjects such as mechanical engineering."

Wang Duoyu was silent for a while, then suddenly made a request: "Professor Tao, to be honest, I'm very grateful for your recognition of me and for inviting me so many times. If I didn't already have a goal, I would really like to join the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Otherwise, could you please report to your superiors and ask if I could just become a part-time intern researcher? I don't want to be trapped in the Chinese Academy of Sciences office, because even theoretical mathematics research can't be accomplished behind closed doors."

"This..." Tao Fangqi was immediately embarrassed. There had never been such a rule since the Institute of Mathematics was founded in 1952. Director Hua Luogeng was very strict about the rules of the Institute of Mathematics.

On the eve of the formal establishment of the Institute of Mathematics, Hua Luogeng, who had already been appointed as the director, elaborated on the Institute's goals, management policies, research directions, talent training and other systematic issues in a work report on the upcoming Institute of Mathematics and put forward opinions. There are three research directions: basic mathematics, applied mathematics and computational mathematics.

Given these three research areas, the Institute of Mathematics has historically had a limited number of researchers. This year, the Institute admitted only 24 master's students from a pool of 1,500 applicants. Including senior researchers like Chen Jingrun, Yang Le, Wu Wenjun, and Zhang Guanghou, the total number of researchers at the Institute of Mathematics is less than 100. Given this, Wang Duoyu is actually seeking an exception and becoming a "part-time" intern researcher. Wouldn't Director Hua Luogeng approve?
However, Tao Fangqi had no other choice. If he did not agree to Wang Duoyu's request, the Institute of Mathematics would be destined to lose Wang Duoyu as a researcher.

"Okay, I will explain your situation and application to Director Hua, but you must promise me that you will complete a paper every year, or participate in a research project at our Institute of Mathematics. At the same time, you must stay at the Institute of Mathematics for a full month every year."

Hearing the other party's words, Wang Duoyu slowly shook his head and said:
"Professor Tao, I suggest you apply to your superiors first. Otherwise, everything you just said will be useless. I can't guarantee you'll write a paper every year. Sometimes I have free time and I might write many papers on my own initiative, but if I'm busy with other things, I might not be able to write a single paper in a year, or even two."

"Oh, by the way, I have two papers at home right now. I was planning to submit them to Science China Mathematics in a couple of days. Since you're here, Professor Tao, I'll hand them over to you. If they're accepted, I'll have the journal send me the royalties."

Although the royalties are not much, they are the fruits of his labor and he certainly cannot just refuse them.

"Okay, no problem. How about we go back and get the paper first?" Tao Fangqi was overjoyed. The reason why he was so stubborn in letting Wang Duoyu enter the Institute of Mathematics was not only because he didn't want him to waste such mathematical talent, but also because he hoped that he could contribute more mathematical research results.

As a professor of mathematics, Tao Fangqi is 52 years old this year. He is no longer at the age of staying up all night to do scientific research. Now is the time to recruit students and have his students all over the world.

But there are not many talented students. For example, this year a total of 1500 people applied for the postgraduate entrance examination of the Institute of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but the institute only accepted 24 people.

Tao Fangqi recruited three of the students, but none of these three, or even the other twenty-one, could compare to Wang Duoyu.

"Leader, is it okay for me to go home first?" Wang Duoyu nodded to Tao Fangqi, then said to Lin Dehong.

Throughout the entire process, both Shen Jiannan and Xing Yongfu were ignored.

PS: If it's not popular enough, it has nothing to do with me. I haven't even put it on the shelves yet. I update at least 6K pages a day, and sometimes 8K. That's more than % of authors, right? This book's stats are average, but I put a lot of effort into writing it. Everyone has their own preferences, so I still hope you can support it. Thank you!
PS: Don’t say I won’t update. If the monthly votes reach 500 before the end of today, I will update immediately!
