Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 67 Going to be a professor at Princeton University?
On the 15th, Friday night, when Zhou Ming came out of the library and was about to go back to the dormitory, he took out his mobile phone and saw unread messages, which contained unread email messages.

[Hello, dear Mr. Zhou, this is the editorial board of "Annual Journal of Mathematics"...]

The email was sent from "Annual Journal of Mathematics", and the beginning was no different from the paper email sent from "New Advances in Mathematics".

【...On behalf of Princeton University, we sincerely invite you to come to Princeton University to study for a Ph.Although your degree does not meet our requirements for hiring a professor, considering your knowledge is sufficient for this position, we can make an exception...]

After carefully reading the contents of the email, Zhou Ming found that it was an invitation letter.

He was invited to study for a Ph.D. at Princeton University. Even if he didn’t want to do a Ph.D., he could directly serve as a professor of mathematics at Princeton University, and the email also explained in detail the generous benefits that Zhou Ming could enjoy after becoming a professor at Princeton University.

As long as Zhou Ming is willing to go, whether he wants to study for a doctorate or become a professor is entirely up to him. It can be said that there is enough face for him.

Consecutive submissions, coupled with the previous papers on "New Advances in Mathematics", Zhou Ming contributed three high-quality mathematics papers in less than half a year.

Moreover, Zhou Ming is only 22 years old. Princeton University has already convinced Zhou Ming's potential in the future. Sent an email.

With the previous review, Zhou Ming felt that even if he went to the United States now, as long as he didn't leak the biological knowledge he had about the future, if he only shined in mathematics, he shouldn't be killed.

However, in the end, just to be on the safe side, Zhou Ming still sent a euphemistic rejection email to the other party, and said that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely visit Princeton University and pay his respects to this university that had produced many famous people.

When the editor-in-chief and associate editors of the editorial board of "Yearbook of Mathematics" received this euphemistic rejection email from Zhou Ming, they were extremely surprised. Zhou Ming, who was only a junior in China, actually refused. received their invitation.

They really couldn't figure out why Zhou Ming would refuse such an invitation with no harm. Even if he wanted to go back to China after he came, he could go back anytime.

After all, mathematics is not a subject involving high-end technology, and the authorities above will not stop Zhou Ming from going back.

How could these people have imagined that Zhou Ming had already died twice at the hands of their people in the simulation before, and if those two deaths due to illness were counted, it would be four times.

Even if Zhou Ming now guesses that there should be no problem for him to go to the United States, he is still not afraid of [-], but is afraid of the worst. For the sake of his own personal safety, he still did not go.

Zhou Ming didn't care what the "Mathematical Yearbook" would do after receiving his rejection. Even if he wanted to know, he couldn't know it from so far away.

The next few days were still the same as before, calm and fulfilling.

Until the 20th, Yi Huaqing sent a message to Zhou Ming that their experiment was successful and they could apply for a patent.

After hearing the news, Zhou Ming was also very happy.

"Mr. Yi, since this research has achieved results, let's meet and talk tomorrow. Patent applications, paper publications, etc., and I have another research here, but this time it's not about biofilms. I don't know. Are you willing to do it?" Zhou Ming sent a message after receiving the message from Yi Huaqing.

"Another research?" Yi Huaqing didn't expect Zhou Ming to come up with another research plan. He really didn't know how Zhou Ming's brain was.

Surprised, Yi Huaqing quickly replied to Zhou Ming: "I don't know what kind of research this time is about?"

"This time it is about research on synthetic biology and the control of water pollution. The specific situation is still the same as before. After we meet tomorrow, I will tell you the general situation first, and then Teacher Yi will decide whether to participate in this research project. . If you agree to participate, you will sign the agreement when the time comes." Zhou Ming typed a long list of words.

"Use synthetic biology technology to control water pollution?" After seeing Zhou Ming's reply to his message, Yi Huaqing began to think about the synthetic biology of water pollution in the past few years, but he did not expect any particularly famous research results.

Last year, Nuture released a breakthrough in synthetic biology. Scientists from the Scripps Research Institute in the United States constructed a bacterium whose genetic material added DNA base pairs that do not exist in nature.Given the molecular building blocks, the cells of this unique bacterium can replicate these unnatural DNA bases almost normally.

The comments at the time said that it represented the spring of synthetic biology.

But it has been a year, and Yi Huaqing has not heard that this spring breeze has been blown in the direction of water pollution control at home or abroad.

After thinking about it for a long time, I don't know what the research project Zhou Ming will talk about tomorrow. After all, the topic of water pollution control is too big.

Water pollution is water that is caused by harmful chemicals to reduce or lose the use value of water and pollute the environment.

Acids, alkalis, oxidants, and compounds such as copper, cadmium, mercury, and arsenic in sewage, organic poisons such as benzene, dichloroethane, and ethylene glycol, will kill aquatic organisms and affect drinking water sources and scenic spots.

When the organic matter in the sewage is decomposed by microorganisms, the oxygen in the water is consumed, which affects the life of aquatic organisms. After the dissolved oxygen in the water is exhausted, the organic matter undergoes anaerobic decomposition, producing hydrogen sulfide, mercaptan and other unpleasant gases, which further deteriorates the water quality.

To control water pollution, it can be controlled from the source, and it can also deal with excessive copper, cadmium, mercury, arsenic and other compounds in the water...

It can be dealt with from different directions and angles, and there are different ways to deal with it. The scope is really too wide.

Yi Huaqing saw that he had no clue what he was thinking, so he simply didn't want to waste his brain cells in vain. Why was he wasting so many brain cells on thinking about things that he would know tomorrow?
"Okay, then where shall we meet tomorrow?" Yi Huaqing asked again.

"Just in your office. There will be classes in the first and second periods tomorrow morning, and there will be no classes in the third and fourth periods. The time can be set in the morning, and I can go there after one or two periods. Of course, if you are not free tomorrow morning, you can You can choose another time." Zhou Ming replied.

Although Zhou Ming would sign a confidentiality agreement with Yi Huaqing every time, even if he had no money for a confidentiality agreement, Zhou Ming would not be afraid that Yi Huaqing would leak relevant information about this research.

Because the research projects that Zhou Ming put forward are not the final version five or sixty years later, most of them are the research results that will appear in a few years, and he will come up with a series of technological updates for replacement later.

Even if some people get the current research results, Zhou Ming only needs to update the technology to the next generation to surpass them.

If he can know his partner is such a person because of this, he can clear the mines for Zhou Ming as soon as possible and clear some obstacles for his future development.

However, as Zhou Ming's teacher, Yi Huaqing has witnessed Zhou Ming's transformation, and he has long realized that Zhou Ming is an extremely thick thigh. He will not abandon Zhou Ming, a towering tree, for the sake of the petty profit in front of him.

"Then tomorrow morning. You can come to my office tomorrow morning after you finish one or two classes. I also have time at that time, so there is no need to change another time." Yi Huaqing confirmed the time to meet and discuss tomorrow, and he I also want to know as soon as possible what the new project Zhou Ming mentioned is.
