Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 114 Time Quartet
Wu Xiping's office.
Chen Zhou was called over by Wu Xiping.
When Chen Zhou walked into the office, the first thing he saw was Senior Shen Jing.
Then, Shen Jing stood next to Wu Xiping, with a whiteboard next to him.
The whiteboard is near Wu Xiping's desk.
Three people were sitting around Wu Xiping's desk.
Chen Zhou had met each of these three people once. They were graduate students taught by Wu Xiping.
Chen Zhou looked at this group of people strangely. Are they planning to cause trouble?
Seeing Chen Zhou coming in, Wu Xiping quickly waved and asked Chen Zhou to move faster: "Hurry up and move a stool over here to sit."
Chen Zhou reached out for the plastic stool behind the office door, walked quickly to the side of the group, and added the stool to the empty space they had left.
Chen Zhou had just sat down and hadn't taken out paper and pen when Wu Xiping spoke again, "Now that everyone is here, let's hurry up and talk."
"Regarding the project of the China Electronics Technology Group, due to some special reasons, we need to speed up the progress of our work."
"Although they asked for the results within 15 days, we can't really wait for 15 days. We have 10 days at most."
"So, we don't have time to take our time, and we can't do it step by step. We have to fight quickly and make a quick decision."
"Yesterday, I reviewed the content of the project we were responsible for and assigned all the tasks to each of us."
"It will be sent to your email in a moment, please check it. If you don't receive it, please contact me in time."
"Okay, professor." Chen Zhou and others responded.
Wu Xiping nodded and said, "In addition, if you have other things that delay you in the near future, please report to me in advance and I will reassign you tasks."
After hearing Wu Xiping's words, Shen Jing looked at Chen Zhou, but Chen Zhou didn't say anything.
"Cough cough..." Shen Jing couldn't help but cough twice.
"Shen Jing, do you have any questions?" Wu Xiping turned his head and looked at Shen Jing.
Shen Jing quickly replied: "No, no, professor."
Wu Xiping looked at Shen Jing strangely, thought for a moment, and said with concern: "Take care of yourself and don't catch a cold."
Shen Jing replied somewhat awkwardly: "Okay, okay..."
Chen Zhou naturally understood what Shen Jing meant by coughing, but he had no intention of giving up participating in this project.
Now that all the instructions had been given, Wu Xiping told Chen Zhou and the others to get busy.
When everyone left, only Wu Xiping and Chen Zhou were left in the office.
Wu Xiping looked at Chen Zhou: "What's wrong?"
Chen Zhou said: "Professor, I have something to tell you first."
Wu Xiping: "You say."
Chen Zhou: "I am participating in a competition that will start on the last weekend of this month."
"Competition?" Wu Xiping frowned slightly. "You can only participate in the National College Mathematics Competition in your sophomore year. The time for mathematical modeling has passed. What competition did you participate in?"
Chen Zhou replied: "International University Physics Competition..."
"Physics competition? Why would you participate in a physics competition if you have nothing else to do?" After a pause, Wu Xiping looked at Chen Zhou, "Do you mean that you want to withdraw from this project?"
"No." Chen Zhou immediately shook his head. "I just wanted to report to you. I was afraid that if I didn't tell you, you would find out and kick me out of the research group."
Wu Xiping smiled, picked up the cup, took a sip of water, and said slowly: "That's not the case. I still believe in your ability. Just arrange your time properly. It will be good for you to participate in more competitions."
Chen Zhou: "Thank you for your understanding, Professor."
Wu Xiping waved his hand and added, "At most, I can just stay up late a little longer, just like last time."
Chen Zhou: “???”
After leaving Wu Xiping’s office, before Chen Zhou even reached the dormitory, he saw that the counselor had sent a file in the mathematics department’s class group.
It is about the arrangements for the midterm exams of the Department of Mathematics at Yenching University.
"Wow, everyone is here..." Chen Zhou opened the group file and took a look.
The midterm exams of the Department of Mathematics will cover three basic mathematics courses: mathematical analysis, advanced algebra, and geometry.
As for other public compulsory courses, such as Ma Yuan, there is no need to take exams.
According to the document, the examination dates for these three courses are scheduled for November 7, 10 and 12 respectively.
There is still one week left until the UPC competition starts.
Seeing this, Chen Zhou felt relieved.
As long as the exam time does not conflict with the competition time, then take the exam, but just do more questions.
Anyway, he doesn't need to review, and there is no such thing as cramming at the last minute.
Chen Zhou is still confident about the books he has reviewed.
After closing the class group and locking the phone, Chen Zhou was about to put the phone into his pocket.
Another call came.
Chen Zhou looked at the caller ID strangely.
【Professor Zhang Zhongyuan】.
In Zhang Zhongyuan's office, Chen Zhou saw Shen Jing again.
Chen Zhou was originally surprised that Shen Jing was not waiting for him at the door of Wu Xiping's office. He did not expect that he was called over by Zhang Zhongyuan.
Zhang Zhongyuan was also talking about the project, but the difference was that this time the project was not so urgent.
The school has approved the project, and the next step is a series of things including the proposal report.
Chen Zhou was honored to receive Zhang Zhongyuan's favor and was given the task of writing the proposal report.
After Zhang Zhongyuan finished explaining everything, Chen Zhou was the only one left in the office.
Chen Zhou repeated to Zhang Zhongyuan what he had said to Wu Xiping.
Zhang Zhongyuan looked at Chen Zhou strangely: "I just heard from Shen Jing that Old Wu is urging you guys. Do you have enough time?"
Chen Zhou didn't rush to make a boast, but said seriously: "Professor, the UPC competition will start at the end of the month, and Professor Wu's project will be completed within 10 days. I guarantee that I can still allocate a lot of time for your project."
"You kid..." Zhang Zhongyuan raised his hand and pointed at Chen Zhou, saying with a smile, "Since you are confident, I can't discourage you. I have plenty of time for this project , so you can take your time."
"Thank you, professor." Chen Zhou replied gratefully.
Zhang Zhongyuan looked at Chen Zhou and said, "Chen Zhou, you are the most hardworking student I have ever seen. You have always managed time very well. This is exactly the same as when I was young. Seeing you is like seeing my younger self."
Chen Zhou did not respond, but silently looked at Zhang Zhongyuan, his sight unconsciously shifted to Professor Zhang's head, where there were traces of youth...
Noticing Chen Zhou's gaze, Zhang Zhongyuan joked: "This is also a kind of gain from immersing yourself in study and research. Maybe you will reach this step earlier than me... "
Chen Zhou: “…”
When Chen Zhou came out of the office, he saw Shen Jing waiting at the office door.
Shen Jing didn't have time to stop him just now, and now he must be curious about what he said to the professor.
Sure enough, as soon as he saw Chen Zhou, Shen Jing asked, "How was it? Did you talk to the professor about the competition? What did the professor say?"
Chen Zhou thought for a moment and sighed, "Ah... I told you, the professor couldn't bear to let me go and tried his best to keep me. He said he would keep me no matter what. I had no choice but to stay in the research group."
Shen Jing: "Oh my god, is this true?"
Chen Zhou nodded affirmatively: "You don't know, for this, the professor also told me the secret of his becoming stronger."
Shen Jing was slightly startled, and then asked: "What's the secret?"
Chen Zhou pointed to his head mysteriously.
