Now is a good chance to let loose!
Sun Liang, being the magnanimous type, got over his funk soon and started to stick out like a sore thumb in the class.
Everybody was busy studying.
Sun Liang felt aimless in his studies, as he was entitled to take the College Entrance Examination, but his score wouldn’t be ranked. He was essentially a person abandoned by the examination.
So, there’s no point!
Sun Liang went around talking to people, and he always said these few sentences --
"I paid a visit to Capital University. It’s stunning there, just like what you see on TV!"
"I can’t wait to start college!"
"Are you guys still preparing for the exam? That’s tough! I don’t have to, I might as well go play some basketball instead..."
Such a person would hardly be popular!
Sun Liang became a nuisance in class. No matter who he spoke to, people would just tell him off and say, "Get lost!"
"Scram!"
"Don’t talk to me!"
As Sun Liang faced the risk of being attacked by everyone, he turned to Zhao Yi. He didn’t brag to Zhao Yi anymore, but asked what major he should choose.
This is crucial.
Sun Liang got a first-place prize in the Mathematical Olympiad competition and then signed with Capital University. Signing with Capital University meant that he could choose from over a dozen majors.
Clenching his pen, Zhao Yi asked, "Aren’t you going to choose Mathematics?"
"Mathematics and Applied Mathematics? I’ve done my research." Sun Liang shook his head, "It’s hard to find a job in the future with those."
"You could do research..."
"I’m not cut out for that." Sun Liang rolled his eyes, "I’m not you. When I went to the training camp, I and others asked the teacher. He said it’s hard to do research in mathematics unless you’re an absolute genius. Most people with a mathematics degree go to grad school to change their major. You know my grades. It’s hard for me to be the best in Capital University, not to mention going abroad or doing research..."
Shaking his head, Sun Liang said, "Considering my family’s circumstances, it’s better for me to work and earn money right after graduation from college. Money matters."
"You surely know yourself."
Zhao Yi chuckled. Perhaps due to his past experiences, Sun Liang appeared to have matured greatly and thought more deeply than before. Zhao Yi hesitantly said, "How about this, you could study Computer Science. You can work right after graduating from that major. No, if you study that, you can work during your college years."
"Join me!"
Pointing at himself, Zhao Yi said, "This way, you can have work to do in the dorm while also earning an income. But remember, we’ll need to be clear on how the money will be divided when the time comes."
"If I work during college, how much can I earn?" A curious Sun Liang asked.
After some thought, Zhao Yi hesitated and offered, "It’s hard to say. If your ability improves, you might be able to earn a few hundred yuan a day."
"Really?"
A gleam lit up in Sun Liang’s eyes upon hearing that.
Zhao Yi nodded.
With newfound determination, Sun Liang declared, "I will major in Computer Science!" He started fantasizing about earning over ten thousand yuan a month during his college years, driving around the capital, and living the stylish campus life surrounded by beautiful girls.
Zhao Yi looked at Sun Liang, wanting to say something, but in the end, held his tongue.
Just take a look at Xu Chao...
Though the computer industry is lucrative, those in it are often so busy that they have no time to live lavishly. And if you step into the industry too early, you might lose all your hair by the time you’re thirty.
That does sound...
Quite interesting, actually!
Zhao Yi looked at Sun Liang’s lush hair, imagining him bald.
Hmm.
It’s a promising thought.
...
That day, there was big news: the Intelligent and Automation Laboratory at Yanhua University, led by Liu Guangzuo and Luo Zhijin, publicly announced that they had verified the first billion prime number solutions to the Irregular Three-dimensional Tremor Waveform using state-of-the-art computers.
Luo Zhijin appeared on camera, sitting in a chair with an excited look, "We have studied a simplified algorithm to verify the three-dimensional tremor waveform."
"Our lab’s computer took twenty-seven hours to complete the operation of the first billion solutions, proving they are all prime number solutions. In other words, within a limited range of operations, the conclusion that the three-dimensional tremor waveform can obtain prime number solutions is correct."
But this statement is not entirely accurate.
Luo Zhijin’s team only verified the first billion prime number solutions using a top-end computer, which took twenty-seven hours. They thus can’t cover the entirety of ’limited operation range’. But most people aren’t concerned about that, as verifying the first billion solutions is quite representative.
If the verification of the first billion solutions is correct, then there’s over a 99% chance that the verification of the first ten billion or hundred billion solutions will also be correct.
So it’s not wrong to conclude that all results within a ’limited verification range’ are correct.
The public isn’t usually interested in such news. Or, to be more accurate, news of a ’verification failure’ would make the headlines. The public has come to accept the ’function validity’ viewpoint, so successful verification is expected.
The academic world, however, is a different story.
Many people who were interested in the verification results were focused on the team from Stanford University, as their team had applied to use a supercomputer that is dozens of times faster than a top-tier computer. Most people subconsciously thought that the team from Stanford was at a higher level. Over the years, Stanford has produced plenty of talents for Silicon Valley, so one can only imagine what the computer team within the university is like.
It was hard to understand why the team from Yanhua University was able to complete the verification first, but there was no need to question it. Since the verification method and process would be published in a paper for all to see, no normal team would dare make such an academic ’joke’.
Meanwhile, Luo Zhijin, with a cheerful laugh, was talking to Zhao Yi, "Zhao Yi, your method of analysis is classic. We used your method for verification and our lab’s computer handled it without any stress."
"By the way, how come you didn’t include this function analysis in your paper?"
Zhao Yi replied, "As long as it’s useful. It wasn’t necessary to include it in the paper. The paper was just about deriving the function, and the analysis was something extra. I sent it to you guys when I heard you needed it for verification."
"Thank you!"
Luo Zhijin added, "Thanks to you, our lab really got to shine this time."
"No need to thank."
Typing quickly, Zhao Yi immediately steered the conversation back to the main point, "Where are my robot parts? When will they arrive?" freewebnøvel.coɱ
"We’ve prepared everything according to your requirements," Luo Zhijin responded, "We’ll have someone deliver them to you directly. They should arrive tomorrow."
"OK, glad to work with you!"
"Glad to work with you!"
