Jiang Yubai has always hoped to be recognized by his competitors.
Lin Zhixia didn't hide it at all, nor was she embarrassed. She just said directly that he was great, he was super great.
Her praise came suddenly and without any preparation.
Jiang Yubai spent a whole day trying to calm down.
He even told himself that what Lin Zhixia praised was not Jiang Yubai himself, but the leader of the Earth Legion in the "Exploring the Universe" comic series - that "Jiang Yubai" who could lead thousands of troops and bravely cross the vast horizon.
The plots in the comics can't happen in real life. When Jiang Yubai was six years old, he was still very excited about Ultraman Tiga. He would imitate Ultraman by crossing his arms and pretending that he could emit cosmic laser rays.
How immature and irrational he was back then.
Now, at nine years old, he is more stable.
Jiang Yubai knew that if he wanted to gain the respect of others, he had to rely on his own efforts.
In order to leave a deep impression on Lin Zhixia, Jiang Yubai made sufficient preparations in advance. He searched the Internet for the definition and concept of "physical oceanography" and downloaded four papers published by Professor Shen Zhaohua this year.
He printed out the paper, bound it into a book, and put it in a transparent plastic file bag. He carried his school bag, dressed neatly, and held the plastic file bag in his hand, just like an emerging scientific research talent.
His uncle Jiang Shaoqi joked: "You are worthy of being my nephew. At such a young age, you like science..."
Jiang Yubai looked up at his uncle: "Do you like science too?"
Of course not.
Jiang Shaoqi is completely clueless when it comes to mathematics and physics.
As the principal violinist of a top orchestra, Jiang Shaoqi's lifelong pursuit is only the perfect art of music. He tirelessly practices his playing skills, and when he is free, he also composes his own music.
In addition to the violin, he is also good at playing the piano and harp.
He has so many shining advantages that are enough to cover up his small flaw that he gets a headache when it comes to mathematics.
He said to Jiang Yubai, "Xiao Jiang, if I hadn't come today, your father would have asked your tutor or bodyguard to accompany you to visit the university city. How could they be as talkative and cheerful as me? Now that I say this, do you think that I, your uncle, am simply the best uncle in the world!"
Jiang Yubai just felt that he was very confident.
Jiang Shaoqi couldn't hear Jiang Yubai's complaints. He hooked his finger on the car key and followed Jiang Yubai into the parking lot.
Today, Jiang Shaoqi drove his car over - it was an ordinary Porsche Cayenne.
Jiang Yubai quickly got into the car and sat upright. It was only at this moment that he told his uncle the truth: "The person Professor Shen invited... was not me. She invited my deskmate, and my deskmate brought me along."
"What?" Jiang Shaoqi was extremely surprised.
Jiang Yubai also told him: "My deskmate is nine years old this year. She is a genius with an IQ of over 174. You should be mentally prepared."
"Are you exaggerating?" Jiang Shaoqi questioned again.
Jiang Yubai told his uncle seriously: "I didn't lie. When you meet her, you will understand what I mean."
Although Jiang Yubai appeared determined, Jiang Shaoqi still didn't quite believe what his nephew said.
What does an IQ of 174 mean?
The IQ of ordinary people is generally between 90 and 110. If it is over 140, you are considered a genius... If it is over 174, are you still a human being?
Jiang Shaoqi guessed that the so-called "genius deskmate" was probably a child with a slightly quicker reaction and a smarter brain.
However, Jiang Yubai's unfounded boasting did arouse Jiang Shaoqi's interest. Jiang Shaoqi wanted to see what kind of personality this kid had who Professor Shen Zhaohua specially invited as a guest.
At 8:30 that morning, Jiang Shaoqi and Jiang Yubai arrived at the university town.
Jiang Shaoqi held Jiang Yubai's hand and walked into the university.
A thin mist covered the whole city in the morning, and the air was filled with cool humidity. Jiang Shaoqi was looking at the scenery of the university town when he suddenly heard a girl shouting, "Jiang Yubai, Jiang Yubai, you're here!"
The sound is soft, sweet, and a little childish, reminding people of summer dessert milk cake.
Jiang Yubai immediately let go of Jiang Shaoqi's hand, showing a proud and independent temperament. He faced the direction where Lin Zhixia was running and responded very calmly: "Good morning, Lin Zhixia."
Today, Lin Zhixia was wearing a light pink coat and a light grey scarf. She jumped over and greeted Jiang Shaoqi politely: "Hello, my name is Lin Zhixia. Lin for forest, Zhi for knowing, Xia for summer. I am Jiang Yubai's classmate and also his deskmate. I have known him for more than four months...almost five months. He is my good friend."
Jiang Shaoqi looked at the pretty girl in front of him, his surprise was beyond words.
Is this the legendary genius with an IQ of over 174?
Seriously…
There is no sense of genius at all.
Jiang Shaoqi looked at Lin Zhixia with eyes full of inquiry and suspicion.
Lin Zhixia's father gently held his daughter in one hand and asked politely, "Hello, are you Jiang Yubai's father?"
Jiang Shaoqi was shocked: "Me? I'm only 24 years old, how can I have such a big son? I'm not married yet and I've never found a partner... In the past 20 years, I have been accompanied by the violin day and night."
After a pause, Jiang Shaoqi continued, "It's just that Jiang Yubai usually has more in common with me as an elder. Today, when I took him out, he was ready early. Don't mention how happy he was."
Jiang Yubai felt a little embarrassed for some reason.
His uncle was the concertmaster of the orchestra. It should be quite prestigious for him to go out with his uncle. However, as soon as his uncle started talking, Jiang Yubai felt embarrassed to continue looking at Lin Zhixia.
Jiang Yubai shifted his gaze, looked at the winter sun, and introduced him perfunctorily: "He is my uncle, my father's younger brother."
Lin Zhixia's father smiled and said, "Ah, I knew it. Your uncle looks very young."
Jiang Shaoqi is indeed very young.
He is tall, with long legs, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and has the handsomeness of a young man.
He was dressed in casual clothes, wandering around the university campus, looking like a young and promising undergraduate. He followed Jiang Yubai, Lin Zhixia and others to a laboratory building in the School of Physics.
Zhu Chan just stood there, waiting for them quietly.
Zhu Chan is the only female doctoral student under Professor Shen Zhaohua. She is 27 years old and about to get married. She wears a ring on her left ring finger and seems to have a scholarly air.
There was a row of laurel trees planted near the experimental building. The laurel trees were evergreen, with lush branches and leaves covered with dew. The transparent dewdrops slid down one after another and hit Lin Zhixia's face.
Zhu Chan handed Lin Zhixia a pack of napkins.
Lin Zhixia looked up and said to her, "Thank you, sister."
Zhu Chan raised her lips and tightened her down jacket. When she spoke to Lin Zhixia, her tone became especially gentle: "Your double ponytail hairstyle is so cute."
Lin Zhixia answered modestly: "Girls will look cute with double ponytails."
Then, Lin Zhixia introduced them enthusiastically: "This is my father. The boy over there is my classmate Jiang Yubai, and the young man...he is Jiang Yubai's uncle."
"Come on," Zhu Chan led the way for them, "Follow me, Professor Shen is waiting for you."
Lin Zhixia and her father walked in front, Jiang Yubai followed behind, and only Jiang Shaoqi stood still.
Jiang Shaoqi had almost no experience with scientific researchers. He only knew that Professor Shen Zhaohua was very good, had first-class academic skills, and was well-known internationally. When he met Shen Zhaohua, he would inevitably have to exchange a few pleasantries with him. What should he say? He didn't even know what "physics" was.
He stood still for a few seconds, and his nephew called out, "Uncle, aren't you leaving?"
Jiang Shaoqi then took the first step.
On the way, Zhu Chan lowered her head and said to Lin Zhixia, "Our school's marine laboratory has an open day every year. Ordinary people can make an appointment by email and visit the laboratory on the day of the open day. Today, we know you are coming, and we are happier than if we had encountered the open day."
"Really?" Lin Zhixia looked around curiously, "But you guys don't know me very well, do you?"
Zhu Chan revealed: "You left a very deep impression on us. Do you remember Niu Siyuan? His last name is Niu and his given name is Siyuan. That day at the aquarium, Niu Siyuan said that he couldn't make the model, and you taught him the correct idea. After he returned to school, he kept thinking about you every other day."
After hearing this, Lin Zhixia's father was surprised and shocked: "Is Niu Siyuan also a doctor? My daughter is helping a doctor... to make a model?"
"Niu Siyuan is a graduate student," Zhu Chan smiled slightly, "Niu Siyuan is a graduate student that Professor Shen just recruited this year."
Zhu Chan stopped at the door of an office.
There was a golden sign in front of the office door, with the words "Professor Shen Zhaohua" engraved on it. Zhu Chan pushed the door open and led Lin Zhixia and others into the office.
Shen Zhaohua was sitting at her desk, marking a student's paper. She was wearing a pair of reading glasses. When she heard Lin Zhixia's footsteps, she raised her hand to take off her glasses, raised her eyelids, and her eyes fell on Lin Zhixia.
Lin Zhixia said: "Hello, Teacher Shen!"
Shen Zhaohua stood up, holding onto the table: "Hello."
The office was silent for two or three seconds, and Lin Zhixia said nothing more. She lowered her head and looked at the notebook that Shen Zhaohua had opened.
On Shen Zhaohua's desk were a notebook, a stack of papers, and a Lenovo computer.
It is obvious that Shen Zhaohua is a very responsible teacher. She prints out students' papers and annotates them in the margins with a ballpoint pen, and the content of the annotations is very detailed.
Jiang Shaoqi walked towards her: "Hello, Professor Shen, I've heard a lot about you..." Then, he prepared to introduce himself and talk about his understanding of "physics".
However, the concept of "physics" almost does not exist for him.
Jiang Shaoqi racked his brains but couldn't think of an opening statement.
Shen Zhaohua said at the right time: "I have two laboratory profiles here. Let me give them to the two children first." She opened the drawer, took out two documents, and handed them to Lin Zhixia and Jiang Yubai respectively.
Before this, Jiang Yubai had already prepared himself mentally.
He originally thought that this lab introduction would be filled with formulas and theories that he couldn't understand. He slowly turned to the first page and saw the following in the catalog: Deepwater Ocean Laboratory, Wind Wave and Current Multifunctional Flume, Wind-Driven Circulation Flume, High-Performance Computer Cluster Laboratory...
He didn't finish reading.
He closed the brief and when he looked up, his eyes met his uncle's.
He exchanged glances with his uncle, who silently mouthed: Good nephew, let's go home.
No.
Jiang Yubai will never give up halfway.
As a growing man, he will never be defeated by a little setback.
What's more, Jiang Yubai was already prepared.
Jiang Yubai unzipped his schoolbag, took out four papers, and calmly stood beside Lin Zhixia.
Lin Zhixia noticed him and asked in surprise, "Jiang Yubai, have you also read these papers?"
"I've seen it." Jiang Yubai answered briefly.
His tutor taught him a trick.
When reading a paper, you don't need to browse the entire text. Just glance at the abstract and you can determine the general direction.
So, he briefly stated: "The main research direction of Professor Shen Zhaohua's latest paper is... the continental shelf circulation."
"That's right!" Lin Zhixia replied naturally, "The paper generally simulated the continental shelf circulation in the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea in the 20th century. The calculation results generated by the model are consistent with the actual observed trend data."
After saying this, she picked up her pen and pointed it at a paper on the table that was waiting to be graded.
"Can I...can I write on paper?" She looked up at Shen Zhaohua.
Shen Zhaohua saw a natural yearning for science in her eyes. When interviewing graduate students and doctoral students, Shen Zhaohua always hoped that he could recruit similar students.
Such students will achieve great success in the academic field. In other words, Shen Zhaohua is more willing to train them and help them achieve great success.
Every graduate student or doctoral student is one of Shen Zhaohua's life works. She is 67 years old this year and has completed at least two-thirds of her life journey. While she is still young and blind, she wants to do her best to train more successors.
Marine physics is an emerging discipline, and the vast unknown world is still waiting to be explored.
As long as Shen Zhaohua and her students take one small step forward and pass it on from generation to generation, perhaps one day in the future they will be able to promote the most significant breakthrough in marine science in human history.
Through a brief academic exchange, Shen Zhaohua noticed Lin Zhixia's extraordinary talent.
The most important thing is that Lin Zhixia is only nine years old this year.
She is so young that she can create endless possibilities.
In addition, although she knew that she was different from ordinary people, she was able to remain neither arrogant nor impatient, and express her ideas concisely and carefully.
Her strong desire for knowledge made her step out of her comfort zone.
She took the initiative to mention it to Shen Zhaohua: "I want to modify the data model of this article."
Shen Zhaohua brought a chair for her: "Write as much as you want."
Lin Zhixia sat on the chair without hesitation: "This article constructs a deterministic prediction model for the dynamic concentration changes of particles in a specific area of the ocean. There is one thing I don't understand, why is a deterministic model used here?"
This article was written by Niu Siyuan.
Niu Siyuan is a new graduate student recruited by Shen Zhaohua this year.
From a common perspective, Niu Siyuan is a good student who is hardworking and loves to study.
However, more than two months ago, the questions Niu Siyuan raised in the ocean aquarium were actually answered in person by Lin Zhixia. This gave Niu Siyuan a headache for a long time.
Niu Siyuan is 23 years old this year, in the prime of his life. He was selected by his long-admired mentor and happily stepped into the world of scientific research. He is ready to make a big move and prove his ability...
Then he was educated by a little girl who was only nine years old.
How is this possible?
Niu Siyuan has always believed that Lin Zhixia's parents are high-level intellectuals such as professors.
The professor and his wife chatted at home, and inevitably used some technical terms. Lin Zhixia heard all the idle chatter.
Hearing that Lin Zhixia was coming to visit Shen Zhaohua and would bring her father with her, Niu Siyuan did not sleep well last night. He could not sleep until midnight, and finally got up this morning and ran to the laboratory building of the Department of Physical Oceanography without stopping.
Niu Siyuan arrived at the right time.
When he pushed the door open and walked in, tutor Shen Zhaohua's eyes lit up.
Niu Siyuan was immediately delighted. He thought that the paper he had just submitted was very well written and perfect, and had won the teacher's praise and recognition.
He didn't notice Lin Zhixia lying on the table. From his perspective, Lin Zhixia was blocked by the desktop computer's display screen.
He stared at Shen Zhaohua, his tone full of expectation: "Teacher Shen, have you read my paper?"
To his surprise, Shen Zhaohua replied with a smile: "Not yet."
no?
Then why did the teacher look so satisfied when he saw him?
What causes the teacher's warm, spring-like smile?
Why was the teacher so excited as if he had discovered a new meaning in life?
Niu Siyuan was thinking, when suddenly he heard Lin Zhixia shout, "I'm reading your thesis! Senior Niu Siyuan, can I talk to you about the content of your thesis?"
Niu Siyuan looked closely and saw that Lin Zhixia had just revealed half of her face. Her eyes were sparkling, flashing with a desire for knowledge.
She also tied her hair into two ponytails with pink strawberry hair ties - in Niu Siyuan's eyes, those were two horns growing from the head of a little devil from hell.
Lin Zhixia wrote a long paragraph of summary and formula derivation on the blank page of the paper.
There is no doubt that this little devil from hell is about to bring a cruel doomsday judgment to Niu Siyuan.
Niu Siyuan's lips lost their color, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Jiang Yubai, who had been watching for a long time, laughed out loud.
Jiang Yubai only laughed. But his attitude was very clear. He was happy to see Lin Zhixia give this graduate student a wake-up call - this proved that Lin Zhixia was strong and powerful. One day in the future, when Jiang Yubai defeated Lin Zhixia, he would surely feel more accomplished.
Niu Siyuan finally reacted and his mentor Shen Zhaohua was delighted by Lin Zhixia's existence.
He couldn't help but straighten his chest, feeling a little ashamed, but he still asked stubbornly, "Do you have any suggestions for revising my paper?"
"Yes." Lin Zhixia replied.
Niu Siyuan held his breath and asked, "What did I write wrong?"
Lin Zhixia explained calmly: "I can't say that what you wrote is wrong. It's just that, according to my understanding, the deterministic model is a special case of the stochastic model. Your data model covers the effects of frictional wind speed and interface waves of stratified media, and uses the Clausius-Clapeyron equation to correct the positive and negative feedback of water vapor. However, due to the limitations of the deterministic model, this article cannot predict the probability distribution in a real environment. It guarantees the consistency between the experimental prediction results and the experimental samples. Therefore, I think you can reconsider the parameter settings and extend the entire model to random sample points to make it more universal in a mathematical sense."
In an instant, the room was filled with silence.
"What is she talking about?" Jiang Shaoqi asked his nephew secretly.
Jiang Yubai reminded him indifferently: "Before I left this morning, I said Lin Zhixia was a genius, but you didn't believe me and said I was exaggerating."
Jiang Shaoqi covered his mouth. His skin was pale and his jawline was perfectly curved. He always wore black gloves, so the action of covering his mouth looked very abrupt. This musician who advocated elegance suddenly had a simple and honest temperament.
Not far away, Lin Zhixia was still arguing with Niu Siyuan.
Exploring opposing viewpoints in an essay is like fighting a war.
Talent is a weapon, perseverance is armor, and courage is a powerful cavalry.
Niu Siyuan lost in person but not in battle. He held a signature pen and tapped the paper twice: "Little Lin Zhixia, in our discipline, there is a group of researchers who specialize in deterministic models. When you say that, you are erasing the contributions of our predecessors."
"I don't mean... that the deterministic model is useless." Lin Zhixia tilted her head and looked at him, looking very confused.
Her communication with Niu Siyuan was not smooth.
She felt that Niu Siyuan didn't understand her explanation at all.
Since Niu Siyuan disagreed with her revision opinion, he should have refuted her from the perspective of data modeling. What was the point of Niu Siyuan talking to her about the contributions of his predecessors?
Niu Siyuan held his breath and described in detail: "I continued the topic of my undergraduate thesis and expanded the model. From September to December this year, most of my time was spent on data collection and data processing."
Before he finished speaking, his instructor Shen Zhaohua interrupted him and said, "Niu Siyuan, there is nothing wrong with your idea, topic, and overall structure..."
After a pause, Shen Zhaohua finally found out Niu Siyuan's strengths: "Your writing is very good."
Writing style?
How sad it would be if the only highlight of a paper is its writing style!
In front of his mentor Shen Zhaohua, senior student Zhu Chan, and the little devil Lin Zhixia, Niu Siyuan was almost unable to hold on.
He thought to himself: Could it be that a young man like me, in my twenties, is not as good as a nine-year-old girl?
Fate dealt him a heavy blow, and he seemed to be on the verge of falling.
He steadied the table with one hand and asked from the bottom of his heart: "Lin Zhixia, you want to change my model. How do you want to change it? Let's discuss a few parameters. Can you construct an expression immediately?"
"Maybe I can do it?" Lin Zhixia asked tentatively.
However, Shen Zhaohua left Lin Zhixia a way out: "Why not start with the simplest model first." She looked at Zhu Chan.
Zhu Chan understood what the instructor meant and immediately asked Lin Zhixia a question: "Lin Zhixia, come on, suppose we have a mixture of silt, silt and mud. We pour this mixture into a container filled with water with an angle of Beta. The state of its flow is called mudflow in the field of hydrology and geology..."
"I know." Lin Zhixia answered obediently.
Zhu Chan asked her, "Have you read any papers on muddy currents?"
"Yeah," Lin Zhixia nodded, "Its English name is turbidity current."
Zhu Chan exclaimed: "Your English is also good, right?"
Lin Zhixia remained silent, and Jiang Yubai answered for her: "Her English is pretty good. If you change everything you just discussed into English, she will be able to understand it."
Zhu Chan was immediately filled with emotion: "Lin Zhixia, have you read many theses?"
Lin Zhixia's father suddenly interrupted: "When our Xia Xia was five years old, she kept asking us for a paper. No one at home taught her. She was so engrossed in reading that she was alone..."
The father originally wanted to say that his daughter was born different and he didn't know how to educate her.
However, his words had a different meaning to Zhu Chan.
Zhu Chan really didn't expect that there would be such a good thing in the world!
A five-year-old child can read a thesis?
Zhu Chan is about to get married. Her relationship with her boyfriend is very stable. The couple is immersed in their own world and has no plans to have children for the time being.
After meeting Lin Zhixia today, Zhu Chan was a little eager to go home and catch her boyfriend to reproduce immediately. When her daughter is five years old, she can study for a thesis with her mother.
The fantasy life was so wonderful that Zhu Chan was so excited that she couldn't help but cover her mouth.
Instructor Shen Zhaohua continued Zhu Chan's question: "Let the density of the turbidity be Rho, the inclination angle be Alpha, and the thickness of the turbidity be H. If you let the turbidity enter the container, how do you think its speed can be expressed?"
Lin Zhixia spread out the draft paper: "This seems to be a basic concept. The density of the muddy current must be greater than that of water. The difference between Rho and Alpha divided by Alpha gives us the density difference of the muddy current. The density difference promotes the movement of the fluid. This density difference is then multiplied by the gravitational acceleration g, multiplied by the thickness H of the muddy current and the sin value of the angle Beta, and then divided by a coefficient... Here we need to introduce empirical coefficients and sliding friction coefficients..."
Shen Zhaohua brought a chair and sat next to Lin Zhixia.
She changed the initial conditions and added variables to Lin Zhixia's formula.
Lin Zhixia exclaimed, "Wow!" "I didn't know it could be written this way! I understand. Thank you, Teacher Shen!" She then applied what she had learned to create more constraints and equations.
Shen Zhaohua was amazed at her understanding.
Niu Siyuan was also stunned.
Shen Zhaohua looked up and said to her student Niu Siyuan, "Look, there is nothing wrong with Lin Zhixia's expression. We added conditions to make her mathematical description more universal. Your article is well written and your data analysis is also correct. We might as well adopt a higher standard."
Niu Siyuan grabbed his thesis, his face flushed with embarrassment.
Shen Zhaohua said to him, "Niu Siyuan, you should stick to the topic I gave you. Your undergraduate thesis is a good direction. As Lin Zhixia just said, I would like you to use a stochastic model instead."
"But..." Niu Siyuan scratched his hair, unable to explain the basis of his theory.
Shen Zhaohua walked to the door of the office: "Next month, I will go out to sea for an investigation. Your brothers and sisters will help me take care of you."
Jiang Yubai followed Shen Zhaohua out. He couldn't help but ask her, "Teacher Shen, will you let your students take care of Lin Zhixia?"
"That's for sure," Shen Zhaohua sighed in a low voice, "Lin Zhixia's talent is very rare."
Jiang Yubai asked her again: "Have you ever seen a student as smart as Lin Zhixia?"
Shen Zhaohua paused. She was wearing a cowhide sweater and a cotton jacket clasped in her arms. The back of her outstretched hand was covered with brown age spots. "I have seen many geniuses, but unfortunately they were not my students. I have taught a student who was... intellectually gifted."
Jiang Yubai hurriedly asked, "What happened to that student later?"
"Just like everyone else." Shen Zhaohua answered truthfully.
The phrase "lost in the crowd" comes from "The Injury to Zhongyong".
"Shang Zhongyong" is an article written by Wang Anshi, a scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty. The article tells the story of a genius prodigy who eventually fell into the ordinary life due to lack of educational opportunities.
Jiang Yubai had heard something about it.
Jiang Yubai's wish has always been to defeat Lin Zhixia. However, when he heard that Shen Zhaohua had witnessed the fall of a genius, he felt an inexplicable struggle in his heart.
Thousands of thoughts gradually settled in his mind, and finally converged into an urgent wish - he hoped that Lin Zhixia would always be a genius, always be able to absorb the knowledge she loved, explore the fields she liked, and pursue the realm she dreamed of.
He hopes she will always be happy.
Because he was thinking about Lin Zhixia, Jiang Yubai was distracted for a while.
He had just heard a story about the fall of a genius from Shen Zhaohua, and couldn't help but worry about Lin Zhixia's safety.
If one day in the future, Jiang Yubai defeats Lin Zhixia... he will definitely not be arrogant or impatient, and will not let Lin Zhixia feel angry or frightened.
Jiang Yubai followed Shen Zhaohua as he pondered over the matter. They walked into the door of the deep-sea laboratory.
Lin Zhixia was very happy. She circled around Shen Zhaohua and asked excitedly, "Teacher Shen, is that the deep-sea laboratory?"
"Yes," Shen Zhaohua explained patiently, "It can simulate the wind, waves, and currents of the deep ocean, including hurricanes and strange waves."
"Very awesome!" Lin Zhixia praised.
The scene before her was rare, and Lin Zhixia, driven by curiosity, grabbed a glass window. She stared at the pool intently. She saw an experiment on "fluid dynamic performance of deep-water equipment" in progress.
In the huge pool, the vast water surface was rippled by the hurricane, and the waves shattered the shadows of the pool. The pool was bottomless and was inlaid with special stainless steel "beach breakers" on all four sides.
This kind of "beach breaking" can withstand the strong impact brought by wind and waves.
Lin Zhixia was mesmerized by the sight.
Zhu Chan called her, "Lin Zhixia?"
Lin Zhixia turned her head and replied happily: "Sister."
Zhu Chan's heart softened, and she quickly suggested: "Let me take you to see our data acquisition system. Have you seen a computer cluster? It is the specific implementation of high-performance computing."
Lin Zhixia was particularly excited: "Okay, sister! I know about computer clusters, and I've read related papers! Its English name is Cluster, and it can combine the computing power of all computers in a cluster, greatly improving the processing efficiency of the system."
Before leaving, Lin Zhixia did not forget Jiang Yubai. She grabbed Jiang Yubai's sleeve and dragged him to the data collection laboratory.
Jiang Yubai and Lin Zhixia both left.
In this deep-sea laboratory, only Shen Zhaohua, Jiang Shaoqi, and Lin Zhixia's father were left.
The waves hit the shore, making a heavy sound, and the waves were illuminated by the lights to give them a sense of layered texture. The scene in the laboratory was ever-changing, just like the deep water area of the ocean world.
Jiang Shaoqi exclaimed: "Physical oceanography is amazing."
Shen Zhaohua did not answer. She looked at Lin Zhixia's father and said, "Hello, what's your name?"
The father showed a trace of embarrassment: "Hello, Teacher Shen. I am Lin Zhixia's father. My name is Lin Fugui."
Lin Fugui and his wife wandered around the provincial capital for many years, and finally settled down after much effort. But he often felt adrift. He had elderly parents and young children to take care of, so he should save money for emergencies. Although he could barely be considered a "small businessman", he tried his best to reduce the expenses of social interactions.
Shen Zhaohua, a well-known professor at a top university who was in charge of a major project of the Natural Science Foundation, actually took out a whole day to entertain Lin Fugui and his daughter, and talked to them politely... This made Lin Fugui feel very emotional.
Shen Zhaohua's time is precious. She didn't do any preparation and said straight to the point: "Mr. Lin, your daughter Lin Zhixia is a very smart child. I was admitted to the Department of Physics of Peking University in 1955, and went to the former Soviet Union to study after graduation. After completing my study abroad, I returned to China and found a job in this university. To date, I have taught more than a hundred students. Some of my students are extremely talented and have done very well in their studies. But when they were nine years old, they might not be as good as Lin Zhixia..."
Lin Fugui showed a look of surprise, and his tongue was immediately tied: "Our Xia Xia really, really likes to study."
Shen Zhaohua nodded slightly: "It's not just about studying and talent. In our time, the ways to obtain information were not as rich as today. The new era of informatization has spawned more outstanding talents. Lin Zhixia has her own interdisciplinary system. She has a solid foundation in foreign languages and can understand complex concepts in mathematics and physics. The most rare thing is that she has a high level of comprehension and a good attitude."
Shen Zhaohua was generous with his praises. With just a few words, he praised Lin Zhixia to the highest heaven.
The deep ocean experiments are not over yet.
The waves were surging like the waves in a great river. The water was extremely turbulent, several feet high, and smashed fiercely on the edge area.
Water splashed everywhere, as if falling on Lin Fugui. He felt his palms cool, and whispered, "What exactly does Teacher Shen mean? As parents, have we delayed Xia Xia's growth in the past few years?"
"Not really." Shen Zhaohua replied.
She reached out a hand and took hold of a stainless steel handrail.
Her skin was yellowed, with obvious wrinkles and protruding blood vessels, and was covered with the traces of the years.
She often goes out to sea for scientific research. In the unpredictable ocean environment, accidents may happen to a research vessel at any time. The losses caused by hurricanes, storms, waves, reefs, and electromagnetic interference prove how insignificant humans are in the face of nature.
In the early years, Shen Zhaohua and his students suffered a lot.
Recalling her past experiences, she told Lin Fugui the truth: "The academic circle itself is a bit impetuous. If there is no output in basic subjects for several years, the pressure will be very great, and even a smart child will doubt himself. You dragged Lin Zhixia into it too early, gave her a research scope, stipulated what she must do and what she is strictly prohibited from doing, and her enthusiasm for scientific research...may be exhausted. Later, I will ask her what she thinks."
Lin Fugui sighed: "Oh, yes, our Xia Xia is very opinionated and likes freedom... She is so smart."
Shen Zhaohua said with a smile: "I have met several geniuses, including academic giants, and they all have open minds. In our school, each department has very good teachers. I plan to apply for a visit card for Lin Zhixia so that she can use the school library resources freely."
She thought about it very carefully.
Lin Fugui quickly expressed his daughter's gratitude: "Thank you so much, Teacher Shen. If Xia Xia has any questions, can she come to the school to ask you?"
Shen Zhaohua said, "I am usually quite busy. I have to go out to sea with the ship and do scientific research at sea. I have tasks to complete every quarter and I also have to go on business trips. I am not in school for at least half a year every year."
Lin Fugui hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shen. I didn't mean anything else. I just asked."
Shen Zhaohua smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, it's okay. There are a total of 17 students in my group, and a group of postdoctoral fellows. I always leave a few people in school.
