Chapter 180 I know you feel wronged but you have to help me
"It is true that the School of Materials Science and Engineering made a mistake regarding the signature. Lu Shan came here to assist with mathematics, so his name was not mentioned. But as I said just now, we will give him an internal commendation for his contribution." President Zeng emphasized the commendation again.
The more Xia Guangming listened, the more absurd it seemed to him. This Principal Zeng always talked about internal rewards, which was obviously avoiding the main issue.
So from the perspective of reason, Xia Guangming couldn't help but ask a soul-searching question: "Principal Zeng, do you think your statement can convince the public?"
After saying that, he hung up the phone without caring about Principal Zeng's reaction. Xia Guangming decided to call Lu Shan to inquire about the details of the situation. After all, he was so angry from the beginning to the end that he had not had a good talk with Lu Shan about the matter.
Before Principal Zeng sent his reply letter, he had a conversation with Chen Qiyi.
"President Chen, you are also a veteran of the school. I have no choice but to handle this matter in this way. I hope you can understand my difficulties." Principal Zeng played the sympathy card right from the start.
Chen Qiyi looked at him coldly: "What's the difficulty?"
Seeing Chen Qiyi talking to him, President Zeng finally found a way in. He started to talk: "You don't know, Jiangzhou University has been in a very difficult situation these years. The research funding is seriously insufficient. I go out to get projects and drink until I vomit to barely make ends meet."
"There are so many teachers in the school who need to eat and support their families, and the college needs to conduct scientific research and innovation. Everyone only knows how to stretch their hands and open their mouths, and they have no idea how hard it is to make money!"
"The state subsidies are not small, and the funds you have brought in are not much more. Besides, the school has its own enterprises and investments, which are all sources of income." Chen Qiyi sneered.
"Starting a business, making investments, and doing business are all risky. It is normal to make some gains and some losses. If the economy is not good, it is difficult to make any profit."
“If they are not making money, why not close those businesses?”
"We can't close it. We have to provide jobs for our old employees."
Chen Qiyi shook his head, not wanting to talk nonsense with Principal Zeng anymore. What about relocating old employees? It was obviously to give these people a job and a reason to continue to rehire them with high salaries.
The company is not making money? How can it make money with so much money?
The old staff cannot retire, so new staff cannot come in. Jiangzhou University is in a decadent state, and young talents cannot stand this atmosphere and naturally cannot stay there.
"Let's not talk about this. What does it have to do with what you did?"
"Of course! This way we can keep our achievements and reputation, and then we will have more opportunities to cooperate with the Academy of Sciences, our own companies can also participate, and companies in society will also cooperate with us. With more money, we will have funds for research, improve salaries, and attract more talents."
Chen Qiyi said indifferently: "It's not wrong not to come. If you come, your results may be stolen, and even your honor may be taken away."
Principal Zeng couldn't help but raise his voice: "Old Chen! You shouldn't say that! I'm considering the future development of the school! Besides, Lu Shan has ways to remedy the situation! Isn't this enough? Just help persuade Lu Shan."
"That's what Lu Shan deserves! You're denying Lu Shan's contribution. Is that appropriate?"
Principal Zeng quickly changed his perspective: "What's the point of Lu Shan holding the results! Can he maximize the application of materials by himself? We are helping him transform the results and better enhance the country's strength! Tell me, is this the truth?"
"There are many people who can help him transform his results. The Xiaguo Academy of Sciences is already prepared."
"That's the problem! The benefits didn't go to the school!"
"It didn't happen to you!"
"Dean Chen, I can't deny what you said. If the country and the academy are doing well, I will naturally be better. You also know that Lu Shan's materials cannot be fully utilized by one person."
"Don't worry about it. Just restore his reputation first! Humph!"
"President Chen, you need to straighten your stance and be highly united with the school to exert your strongest fighting power. What you are doing is tantamount to putting the school's reputation and interests in trouble!"
"What is wrong is wrong. If the school's direction is wrong, I can't stay consistent! Even if I am fired, I will never agree to the decision regarding Lu Shan! You are going too far!"
Chen Qiyi rolled up his sleeves and left.
"You!" Principal Zeng was very angry.
The two parted unhappily, and Chen Qiyi immediately went to find Lu Shan to tell him everything. After that, he warned him: "Don't be fooled, don't accept their conditions, otherwise, your achievements will become the achievements of the School of Materials Science and Engineering."
Lu Shan nodded: "Don't worry, I won't accept it. Three hundred thousand is nothing, I still have this little money."
Lu Shan smiled and said that Jiyue Technology was a money printing machine.
Chen Qiyi finally felt relieved: "It's rare that you are so young and you are not tempted by so much money! I will do my best to fight for your rights. If someone wants to talk to you, be sure to contact me and I will take care of it for you. At my age, they dare not do anything to me!"
Lu Shan smiled: "Don't worry! I will definitely inform you!"
Having lived two lives, Lu Shan was deeply touched. Zhou Wei from the School of Computer Science had always cared about him and told Lu Shan to ask him more if he had any questions. He and Chen Qiyi would try their best to help.
I am really lucky in my life to have met so many mentors who care about me.
When you have achieved something, find ways to protect it, don't take credit for it, don't be greedy for fame, and treat yourself like a younger member of the family.
"Anyway, just forget about the group of people from the School of Science, Materials and Chemistry! Let them perform on their own. They are a bunch of clowns and will be exposed soon."
"I will listen to you and do my research with peace of mind. I have been very interested in the Catalan conjecture recently and I am thinking about it."
"Really? That's great, I won't bother you anymore." Catalan number is a number series in combinatorial mathematics that often appears in various counting problems. It is named after the Belgian mathematician Eugene Charles Catalan.
The first few items are: 1, 2, 5, 14, 42, 132, 429, 1430, 4862, 16796, 58786, 208012, ...
We assume f(n) = the number of pop sequences with n sequences. At the same time, we assume that the sequence number of the first pop from the beginning to the first empty stack is k. In particular, if the stack is not empty until the end of the whole process, then k = n.
In essence, it is the application of the recursive equation, applied to the order of popping stacks, triangulation of convex polygons, and forming binary trees of given nodes. There are many more specific applications, and computers are an important aspect of it.
Lu Shan said jokingly, "Otherwise you will tell me that you are not paying attention to your major courses."
Chen Qiyi was very happy. He was most happy that Lu Shan could do more research in mathematics.
Chen Qiyi once again brought up a commonplace statement: "Mathematics is the foundation of all science and engineering."
……
Chen Qiyi's prediction was correct.
Soon, when Lu Shan was doing research, he received an email inviting him to attend an academic seminar with the Materials Chemistry Team. Lu Shan immediately understood what these people meant. What academic seminar? It was basically a meeting to throw bones at him to shut him up.
Lu Shan ignored these people and buried his head in research. These people had no sincerity at all. They sent an email in the morning and had a meeting in the afternoon. If you don't pay attention, you will miss it in a few minutes. Why go to such a meeting?
Lu Shan did not reply to the envelope, so the School of Materials and Chemistry had to send a text message to notify them, but there was still no response. Then they called, but still no one answered. This made the Materials and Chemistry team furious.
"Don't worry about him, he will come naturally when the time comes." Shen Yanchun was a little unhappy. This Lu Shan was really ignorant.
Unexpectedly, when it was time for the meeting, the entire materials and chemistry team was present, and everyone's expressions were clearly not right.
"Lu Shan is so arrogant! Does he know how much sacrifice we have made? He is the last one to come!" Tan Ming said directly.
The materials and chemistry team was completely blown away.
"That's right! Three hundred thousand! Is that your attitude?"
"It was Dean Shen who sent him the notice personally. He must have deliberately not come!"
"Call again!"
As he was speaking, someone actually took out his cell phone and made a call. The call was connected, but no one answered.
"Too crazy! What's so crazy about it!"
"We're not happy to give it yet!"
"If you don't come, we'll leave!"
Shen Yanchun looked unhappy. Such students really didn't know what was good for them. But he still appeased the members. After all, this meeting would be meaningless without Lu Shan.
After waiting and waiting, half an hour after the meeting started, Shen Yanchun could no longer bear it and directly announced the adjournment of the meeting.
"Dean Shen, I've said it before, don't give him any subsidies. People like him are ungrateful and want to take all the credit." Tan Ming persuaded. He didn't want Lu Shan to show up in the first place.
Shen Yanchun's face turned pale, but he did not act on impulse. He showed his attitude and said that if he did not accept it, it was Lushan's problem. So Shen Yanchun informed Principal Zeng about the matter.
Principal Zeng felt upset after hearing Xia Guangming's phone call. After all, he had done something wrong, and it was uncertain about his future development in the education or academic circles!
This time, Principal Zeng was not angry with Lu Shan. Instead, he wanted to go find Lu Shan together with Shen Yanchun.
"We all understand that Lu Shan is upset. If it were you, you would definitely be unhappy too. How about this, we go to him in person. This will show our sincerity and prevent others from making excuses."
Shen Yanchun was helpless, thinking that Principal Zeng must be getting old and confused, and actually planned to lower himself to him.
Little did they know that Principal Zeng was also a person who valued substance over appearance. If he could keep Lu Shan and get results, what would he lose in the future? Appearance was worthless.
The two people came to Lu Shan's studio. At this time, Lu Shan was concentrating on looking at the results of computer calculations and constantly recording something. He didn't notice that Principal Zeng and Shen Yanchun had come here.
Lu Shan turned around only after Shen Yanchun spoke. After he explained the whole story, Lu Shan understood.
"Sorry, my phone was on silent just now. After all, calculations require concentration..." Lu Shan said with a little apology.
Principal Zeng lamented that only such pure people could produce such brilliant results.
Just as he was about to speak, Chen Qiyi walked into the laboratory and looked at Principal Zeng and Shen Yanchun warily, like an old hen protecting her chicks.
Shen Yanchun smiled widely: "Dean Chen, we are here to tell Lu Shan some good news."
"Go ahead, I'm not stopping you."
"Well, it's like this. We have an academic seminar and we'd like Lu Shan to attend." Shen Yanchun didn't dare to state the conditions directly, as Chen Qiyi would definitely go crazy.
