Chapter 65 Borrowing People
Military training is still going on, the rainy day benefits have ended, and the next two days will be sunny.
In just two evenings, Monday and Tuesday, Xu Qingzhou finished a quarter of the thesis content.
Although this paper is more in-depth than the previous one, it involves a lot of things in the field of physics. Compared with the previous one, Xu Qingzhou feels more comfortable with it.
Dormitory 101 is the same as usual. Xu Zhengyang is working hard to pursue Dong Shan. Kong Xianbo is mysterious and busier than Xu Qingzhou. He runs outside with his computer whenever he has free time. Zhai Ziqiang is preparing for the class step by step.
Wednesday morning, professor's office.
The two students had left to eat, and Gu Zhizhong sat in front of the computer, staring at the paper on the screen meticulously.
Although he has reviewed it with a critical eye, hoping to find some loopholes to demonstrate his own value.
However, the calculations in the paper were meticulous and the reasoning process was logically clear. After checking the whole paper, changing the words in four places and adjusting several mathematical symbols, he felt like he had no idea where to start.
Gu Zhizhong was more and more amazed as he watched. He leaned back in his chair and couldn't help but sigh: "Young people nowadays are really amazing."
At this time, a tall and thin figure walked into the office without even knocking on the door. Gu Zhizhong frowned, looked up to see the person clearly, and then quickly relaxed.
Professor Zhao Shengwen from the School of Physics is not only a colleague of mine, but also an old friend for decades.
"Hello, rare guest. Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?" Gu Zhizhong stood up with a smile and made tea for his old friend.
Zhao Shengwen sat down on the sofa casually. "Look at what you said. Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?"
"What good can come of a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken?" Gu Zhizhong chuckled twice, not believing that his old friend came to see him specially. While speaking, he took out a small box of tea from the cabinet next to him.
"Where is the Dahongpao from last time?" Zhao Shengwen glanced at the small box.
"Don't drink it and go out."
"Hello, hello, this tea is not bad." Zhao Shengwen smiled apologetically, took a sip of tea, and then slowly said, "Actually, I came here today for something that I need your help with."
"When others ask for help, they at least bring something. But you always come empty-handed and even drink my tea." Gu Zhizhong scolded with a smile.
Zhao Shengwen rolled his eyes and said, "You are setting a trap for me. Last week I heard that a student sent you something, but you scolded him in your office."
Gu Zhizhong snorted twice before he started to ask about the main matter: "What's the matter? Why are you coming all the way here?"
"I'm here to borrow someone." Zhao Shengwen said directly.
"Borrowing someone? What to do?"
“My topic.”
Gu Zhizhong recalled for a moment and asked, "What is your topic, the electromagnetic properties and heat conduction analysis of superconductors?"
Zhao Shengwen nodded and sighed, "We plan to build a mathematical model for the electromagnetic field distribution and heat conduction behavior of superconductors first. The amount of calculation is too large, so we need to borrow someone from you."
"So urgent? I've read the plan. Doesn't it say that we won't start building the model until December?"
Zhao Shengwen smiled bitterly: "I also want to take it slow, but time waits for no one. Jinling University is also working on this project."
Gu Zhizhong understood instantly. Everyone was working on the same topic, so what they were competing for at this time was efficiency. Whoever finished it first would own the results and the funding.
Although he understood, he still said helplessly: "My students all have their own projects now, and I guess they can't spare the time."
"We don't need a doctoral student. Just pick one of the master's students you supervise." Zhao Shengwen drank tea.
"Master's student" Gu Zhizhong pondered for a while and shook his head: "They are also very busy these days, I'm afraid they can't come. The two who were just admitted this year still have a lot to learn."
"Old buddy, you have to help me with this!" Zhao Shengwen put down the teacup, a little anxious.
Gu Zhizhong touched the tea and smiled faintly: "I'm not saying I won't help." Zhao Shengwen was stunned, as if he thought of something, and rubbed his hands, "You won't do it yourself. Old Gu, I don't know how to thank you!"
"Wait, don't be moved yet, it's not me."
Gu Zhizhong waved his hand. He himself had a lot of things to do. "It's not possible for me to bring a few people with me, but I can recommend someone to you. If he comes, it should be no problem."
"Who?"
"An undergraduate named 'Xu Qingzhou', a mathematical genius." Gu Zhizhong introduced.
"Undergraduate?" Zhao Shengwen was stunned again, pondered for a while, and nodded, "Okay, the knowledge at the undergraduate level is almost enough."
"Then I'll call." Gu Zhizhong nodded with a smile, found the number Xu Qingzhou left, and dialed it. However, the call ended with a beep and no one answered.
"no one?"
"Look at my memory." Gu Zhizhong slapped his head and said, "He is probably in military training at this time, and his phone is on silent mode."
"Military training?" Zhao Shengwen didn't react and asked tentatively, "How old is he?"
Gu Zhizhong calmly drank a sip of tea and said, "Military training, of course, is for freshman year."
Zhao Shengwen stared, not wanting to drink his tea anymore: "Freshman! Lao Gu, are you kidding me? It's okay for a senior, but the freshman classes haven't even started yet!"
"Feel young?" Gu Zhizhong smiled faintly, pointed at his computer, and said, "Take a look at this paper first."
Zhao Shengwen had no idea what his old friend was up to, but he still stood up and sat down in front of the computer. He glanced at the title and summary, and asked in confusion:
"The application of Euler's formula in the representation of wave functions. When did you become interested in quantum mechanics like Lao Guo?"
Gu Zhizhong urged: "Stop talking nonsense and give me a review after reading it."
Zhao Shengwen stopped talking and focused his attention on the paper. He was soon attracted by the content of the paper.
Time passes minute by minute.
Zhao Shengwen stared at the paper on the computer for a long time and sighed, "It's very well written, with concise sentences, clear logic and depth. It shows that the author has considerable attainments in mathematics and physics."
Then he said with a bit of sourness: "The thesis of your graduate student?"
"Graduate student? Hahaha, this paper was written by Xu Qingzhou. Surprising, right? When I found out he was a freshman, I was also shocked. When we were freshmen, we were still playing in the mud, but he could already write a paper like this!"
"This was written by Xu Qingzhou?!" Zhao Shengwen was completely stunned.
Gu Zhizhong nodded, very satisfied with his old friend's expression. It was an honor for him as a teacher to see his students doing well.
Zhao Shengwen still found it hard to believe. He paused and thought of a reason. "Old Gu, tell me the truth, did you help him change a lot of things?"
"Change your ass, don't you know what kind of person I am?"
Gu Zhizhong said sullenly, "I really told you that this paper was completed independently by Xu Qingzhou. From beginning to end, I have revised no more than 10 places. Moreover, they were all minor issues such as punctuation and formatting!"
"This..." Zhao Shengwen turned around and looked at the paper with mixed feelings.
"This is the question I used to test him. He finished it in 50 minutes." Gu Zhizhong handed Zhao Shengwen the manuscript paper on which Xu Qingzhou deduced Euler's formula.
Zhao Shengwen was holding the manuscript paper.
