Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Princeton’s dormitory is downstairs.

A silver white car appeared at the corner and stopped at the main entrance as the lights flashed.

Reaching out and getting off the car key, sitting in the driving position of Qin Yue, looked aside and said.

“Arrived.”

Solved seat belt, Xiaotong very politely thanked, “Thank you for picking me up.”

Qin Yue laughed and said casually: “You’re welcome, do you need me to help you carry your luggage?”

When he was studying at Princeton, he was not taken care of by Lu Zhou. Now it is his turn to repay the mentor’s kindness. At least in his opinion, this little thing has nothing to do with it, it is what he should do.

However, there is only one point that Xiaotong and her brother are too similar, that is, they are not willing to use their own things to trouble others. Therefore, after hearing Qin Yue’s proposal to help carry out luggage, Xiaotong almost ignored it and euphemistically declined.

“No, I can do this little thing myself.”

Did not insist on having to help, Qin Yue nodded: “Oh, then I will not bother to disturb, if there is anything I need to help tell me.”

“Okay, then let me go first.”

“Slow down.”

After saying goodbye to the former student of the Elder brother and the Qin Professor who is now teaching at Princeton, Xiaotong first went to the board to collect the keys, then stepped on the stairs, and squatted lightly. The suitcase of things went upstairs.

This student apartment is applied online. The furniture is very complete, basically it can be accommodated with a bag.

After staying in the room, Xiaotong took about two hours to simply clean up the room, and then took his own information and went to Nassau Hall, which is not far from here, which is the administrative building of Princeton. admission procedures.

For Princeton, she is not unfamiliar, or even familiar.

A few years ago, it was probably the summer vacation she had just finished the college entrance exam. She had stayed here for two months until the summer vacation ended and went to National Quemoy University to report back.

She also vaguely remembered that the Elder brother, who was a professor at Princeton, had a small assistant who looked very cute and soft, and was probably not much older than her.

Only because the little assistant was too afraid of life, she tried to take the initiative several times and did not establish a profound friendship with her.

“I don’t know if she is still there.”

After completing the entrance procedure, Xiaotong, who returned to the apartment, leaned back on the soft bed and stretched out.

“If it’s still, it would be nice if she could make friends with her… But she said she probably didn’t know me? After all, for so many years.”

The exhaustion of the road rushed to the brain, and it didn’t take long for the room to have a steady breathing sound.

Sitting in the plane for a whole day, and taking the car again, now I can sleep in the bed of the right child.

Thinking about the future campus livelihood, she felt that she slept very well, until the next morning at six or seven o’clock, before she yawned and climbed up from the bed…

Looking at the calendar in the mobile phone that has opened a new page, went to the bathroom to wash Xiaotong, opened the computer and sent an email to her future instructor Krugman Professor.

Almost as soon as she had just prepared breakfast for herself, a reply letter flew into her mailbox.

“Is Princeton’s Professor so efficient?”

It was a little surprised to open the e-mail. She had already prepared for the report in the mentor for two days. I didn’t expect it to be received in less than an hour.

The content of the email is very short and can be summarized in a few words. Probably, she is welcome to choose Princeton. If she is ready to start her doctoral career, she can come to his office to report.

At the same time, the address of his office is attached to the mail.

Although I have seriously considered whether I should wait for two days to wait for my livelihood to settle down, but I think I have completed the admission registration, it is better to go to see the tutor as soon as possible, and by the way, leave a positive good for the tutor. impression.

So, I remembered the address, and Xiaotong, who had finished eating breakfast, simply cleaned up the tableware and changed the body to clean and clean clothes.

With her own good memory, and did not spend a lot of effort, she quickly found her instructor Krugman Professor’s office in the Economics Institute.

And just as she had just pushed the office door open, a warm voice came from behind the door and almost didn’t scare her unprepared.

“Welcome to Princeton! Xiaotong fellow student from China, is the livelihood here still used to it?”

After a half-step jump like a frightened bunny, confirming that this face is consistent with the Krugman Professor on the photo, she decided to calm down and coughed.

“…I have lived here for a month, and it is not the first time I have studied abroad. In short, I am quite used to it.”

Krugman Professor curiously asked: “I have lived for a month? But I remember that you are an undergraduate at National Quemoy University, a master at Oxford… Is it a student exchange?”

“Hey, don’t count it… overseas visits?” I didn’t expect the tutor to be so clear about my investigation. Xiaotong didn’t know if he should be flattered for a while, or he said that he was surprised.

“Oh,” Krugman Professor showed a blank expression on his face, and then laughed heartily. “That seems I don’t have to worry about getting lost on campus. Many students who come to this place for the first time will come across this.” Kind of confusion, there is no obvious boundary between the town and the school. It is easy to stroll around and actually has gone out of school… Wesley, you are familiar with the work here, I suddenly There is a call to pick up, I will hand it over to you first.”

“Good Professor.” A thin, doctoral student with a freckled face on his face came over and pushed the thick-rimmed glasses on the bridge of the nose. Looking at the slightly irritated Xiaotong, he extended the right hand. “Wiesell, I am a doctor, I am very glad to meet you.”

“…I am very glad to meet you, Lu Xiaotong.”

Politely shook hands, Xiaotong said cautiously.

“Lu Xiaotong, are you? Come with me.”

Wistel nodded, then took Xiaotong to an empty desk in the office by the window. “This is where you work and study. If there is anything you don’t understand, ask me. You can also ask Krugman Professor directly… or other people in the office, we will try to help you, but the vast majority of cases still depend on you.”

Xiaotong: “…thank you.”

“You really should thank me. I have already got off work yesterday. I was called back by the Professor to clean up the station. I said there was a freshman rating.” Looking at the Professor who went out from the office to answer the phone, Wisl shrugged. I made a helpless expression. “In general, cleaning up the things that the last master didn’t take is a newcomer’s job, at least for us… but Krugman Professor seems to value you very much.”

I heard that I had inadvertently added such a big trouble to others. Xiaotong suddenly said a little embarrassed: “If there is such a thing in the future, please tell me, I can do it myself.”

“It’s okay, this little thing has no feet,” he waved his hand, and Wiss said casually. “I will introduce you to the rest of the office.”

“Ok……”

Just as Wisl was about to introduce the rest of the office to the freshman, the office door was opened again, and the Krugman Professor, who had previously called, walked back with a smile.

“The phone is finished! Give it to me here, Wisdom, go ahead and do your own thing.”

“Oh… okay,” some of them are stunned by their own Boss today. They were very enthusiastic about Santa Claus in the early morning, but Wisl did not dare to ask, just nodded, and this The newcomer said, “Then I will go to thesis first… I will introduce you later.”

“Well, trouble.”

A little bit eager to face the Senior Brother nodded, Xiaotong then looked towards the face of a warm-faced Krugman Professor, a look of question marks, a bit too clear about the situation.

What is this special welcome prince of Princeton?

Why didn’t you listen to the Elder brother at all…

The face with a sly smile came over, Krugman Professor looked at Xiaotong, and asked the temperature.

“Your graduation thesis I have read it many times and wrote very well. Although there is a little bit of paralysis in the theoretical part, it is quite difficult to write such thesis at your age, even in Princeton. Places, such innate talent is rare.”

Clearing the throat, he continued.

“Since the theoretical knowledge you have mastered a certain trick, then I will pay more attention to the cultivation of your other aspects of ability… Speaking, Xiaotong, what academic conference have you participated in before?”

Xiaotong: “I have been to the tutor… but I have not published an article on it.”

Krugman touched his beard and asked: “Is it a top meeting?”

Xiaotong said with apologetic: “There is not yet…”

Unfortunately, her former teacher, Foster Professor, is not a particularly well-known big cow in the field of macroeconomics. Most of the opportunities offered to her are not in the academic world, but with her Senior Brother Senior Sister. We are mainly focused on internships at major investment banks.

At that time, Xiaotong had not made up his mind to develop in the academic world. Therefore, he did not pay special attention to the top-level conferences that were well-known in this profession. He only followed the instructors to several more general meetings.

“Don’t you go there? That’s just right!”

Didn’t mind Xiaotong’s experience that he hadn’t participated in the top meeting before, Krugman’s Professor eyes shined, like thinking of a brilliant idea, he just laughed and started, and said: “There will be a macro economy in Shanghai next week. The exchange meeting of the academic direction. Participation in the top meeting is an important academic qualification. Even if you don’t publish the article above, it will be very rewarding for you to listen to, and there are also some academic awards for young Scholar and PHD and master. If you haven’t participated in the summit experience before, just go see the world with me.”

Almost in this sentence, the moment of export.

Xiaotong noticed that all the doctoral and master’s students in the office, including the Senior Brother named Wisdom, had a clearly envied expression in their eyes.

As a Nobel Prize-winning Scholar, a macroeconomics big cow who has created an era, Krugman Professor usually attends the conference and rarely takes the student together, unless he is a student whom he particularly values, or this The student just published an article at the meeting.

And this guy…

It’s been less than a day since the report, and even less than an hour from entering the office, it has been treated like this “private level”…

It is so extraordinary that it is enviable!

Being looked at by these sights is not comfortable, Xiaotong has some embarrassed resignation.

“But… I am completely unprepared, or you still bring others -“

“It doesn’t matter! It’s just a long experience in the past, you don’t have to be prepared,” Without the slightest hesitation interrupted Xiaotong’s words, Krugman Professor continued, “One day you have to publish an article at this top conference, now Familiarize yourself, even if you are only familiar with the process of the next meeting, it will be of great help to your future academic path!”

I heard that the instructor said so, Xiaotong couldn’t say the words of resignation.

In fact, there is such an opportunity, of course she is not willing to miss.

The only thing that made her feel a headache was that she had just flown from the plane over Shanghai. If she followed the mentor to open this meeting, it would mean that she would fly back again…

When I think that I have to toss in the sky for more than twenty hours, Xiaotong is not good for the whole person…
