Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 192 I'm used to going back to take care of the baby
"Dean Yang, what do you think?"
At this time, Chen Zhou was in the office of Dean Yang of the School of Physics.
There was only one reason why he came here.
That is, the final exams for the spring semester of the freshman year are about to begin, and he is asking Dean Yang about the final exams for the Department of Physics.
Dean Yang, who was sitting behind his desk, raised his head and glanced at Chen Zhou.
Dean Yang didn't rush to answer, but asked Chen Zhou: "The final exams in the spring semester are different from those in the fall semester. What's more, you are going to take the final exams for all grade courses in the Department of Physics. Have you really thought about it?"
Chen Zhou nodded confidently: "President Yang, don't worry, I am sure I am confident enough to make this request to you."
Dean Yang stared at Chen Zhou for a while.
The message he got from Chen Zhou's face was indeed confidence.
After a moment of hesitation, Dean Yang said, "Okay, I'll help you arrange it. But..."
Although Dean Yang didn't finish his words, Chen Zhou already understood what he meant.
He smiled slightly and jokingly said, "Dean Yang, if I crush your physics students, please don't blame me."
Dean Yang said nonchalantly: "It's OK as long as you have this confidence. As the saying goes, if you don't master the skills well, you can't blame others. However, I don't think you can crush the entire Physics Department."
Chen Zhou smiled again and did not dwell on this topic any further. Instead, he said, "Dean Yang, it's settled then. Just send me the exam room information before the exam."
Dean Yang nodded gently: "Okay."
After the matter was settled, Chen Zhou left the office.
Dean Yang looked at Chen Zhou's departing back and thought to himself, this kid is really impatient. If this is the case, this time next year, this kid will have to prepare for graduate school...
Then he thought of Yang Yiyi again.
Like Chen Zhou, Yang Yiyi will also take part in the spring semester final exam for the entire physics department.
If nothing unexpected happens, both of them will complete their undergraduate studies in physics under his guidance.
After Chen Zhou left Dean Yang's office, he went to find counselor Huang Yemei.
He needed to confirm with Huang Yemei about the final exams for the fall semester of the Department of Mathematics and the arrangements for .
Huang Yemei's office.
"Chen Zhou, you're here."
"Yes, Mr. Huang."
Huang Yemei looked at the students in front of her and couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion in her heart.
She still remembers that when Chen Zhou first came to Yanda, he asked her for help buying books.
At that time, she just thought that this student was good and had a studious attitude.
But I didn’t expect that this was not easy to learn.
Learning this is as easy as playing, and I completed all the courses in the Department of Mathematics in no time.
Then, I have to take another stroll around the Department of Physics.
Opening the drawer, Huang Yemei handed Chen Zhou a printed paper with the exam schedule, exam room number and seat number.
Chen Zhou took it and took a look. It was similar to the exam schedule in the spring semester.
Differential topology, algebraic number theory, modern partial differential equations, etc.
After a quick glance, I had a rough idea of what was going on.
After putting the paper away , Chen Zhou looked at Huang Yemei and said softly, "Thank you, Teacher Huang. Who is my thesis advisor?"
Huang Yemei asked curiously: "You don't know?"
Chen Zhou thought about it, and then a name came to mind: "Professor Wu Xiping?"
"Yes." Huang Yemei nodded and said, "It's Professor Wu. Didn't you tell the professors that you should look for Professor Wu for your graduation thesis and for your postgraduate study?"
Chen Zhou was a little embarrassed. This was at the beginning of the school year, and he had asked for leave from all the professors. He was asked so many questions by all the professors that he simply pushed it all onto Professor Wu.
Unexpectedly, these professors actually took it seriously.
But on second thought, Chen Zhou felt that this arrangement was not bad.
After all, Professor Wu is an old acquaintance, so it is naturally impossible to make things difficult for him when it comes to the graduation thesis.
Huang Yemei glanced at Chen Zhou and said calmly, "It was Professor Zhang Zhongyuan who specifically approached Dean Zhou about this and wanted to arrange for you to complete your graduation thesis with him."
"Uh..." Chen Zhou was a little speechless, and asked after a while, "Did Dean Zhou refuse?"
Huang Yemei shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I heard that he didn't refuse or agree. He just said that he would let Professor Zhang talk to you himself and see who you choose."
Chen Zhou: “…”
Chen Zhou felt strange. Why did Zhang Zhongyuan keep asking him questions about calculus and advanced algebra these past two days? Also, which one did he like better, calculus or advanced algebra?
Chen Zhou couldn't help but shake his head slightly. This Professor Zhang was really just about to ask him directly whether to choose Wu Xiping or Zhang Zhongyuan.
Seeing Chen Zhou's strange expression, Huang Yemei smiled softly and said, "Why, Professor Zhang really came to see you?"
Chen Zhou: "No, it doesn't count as coming to me directly..."
After coming out of Huang Yemei's office, Chen Zhou thought for a while and went straight to Wu Xiping's office.
"Boom boom boom."
"Come in."
Only after hearing Wu Xiping's voice did Chen Zhou push the door open.
In the office, besides Wu Xiping, there were also his graduate students and teaching assistants.
Seeing that it was Chen Zhou, the seniors all greeted him enthusiastically.
Chen Zhou also responded enthusiastically one by one.
Walking to Wu Xiping's desk, Chen Zhou took the initiative to move a small stool and sat down.
Wu Xiping stopped writing, turned his head to look at Chen Zhou, and asked with a smile, "Is it about the graduation thesis?"
Chen Zhou nodded: "Yes."
Wu Xiping said: "Just pick a topic at your own discretion. No need to use the hailstone conjecture. Just analyze a difficulty with Clifford."
Hearing Wu Xiping's words, his graduate students and teaching assistants couldn't help but look back at Wu Xiping.
They all thought at the same time that Professor Wu's casualness was not really casual.
As soon as Chen Zhou's paper on Clifford analysis was published, Wu Xiping asked each of them to download the electronic version and take a closer look.
Not to mention Chen Zhou's calculations, which have been praised by many people, the difficulty of this topic alone is at the level of a graduate thesis.
Chen Zhou didn't care. He didn't come here to choose a topic for his thesis.
Chen Zhou said, "Okay, Professor, I understand. But it doesn't matter. I just want to tell you that I may have to finish this paper next year."
This remark caused the seniors to look back again and listen, this is not important, is this what a human being would say?
Wu Xiping hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, I know you have something to do with the Department of Physics, which is not urgent. Are you planning to write the papers for the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Physics together?"
Chen Zhou nodded slightly.
Wu Xiping glanced at Chen Zhou again and asked, "How is the research progress of the hail hypothesis?"
It has been nearly two months since the Qiu competition ended.
Chen Zhou has also studied nearly a hundred papers on the hail hypothesis. It cannot be said that he has gained nothing, but there has been no breakthrough at all.
However, Chen Zhou vaguely felt that he just lacked that moment of inspiration .
Seeing that Chen Zhou didn't say anything, Professor Wu Xiping continued, "I'm not advising you to give up. It's just that when you are stuck on a problem, you can try to solve a similar problem. Maybe you will get some unexpected benefits."
Chen Zhou looked at Wu Xiping and slowly pondered over this sentence.
After a while, Chen Zhou asked, "Professor, what do you usually do when you encounter a problem?"
Wu Xiping smiled and said, "Me? I'm used to going back to take care of the kids..."
Looking at the smile on Wu Xiping's face, Chen Zhou was a little speechless. How could he learn from this...
