Tech Hammer

Beijing.

Lu Changbin came here three days ago to attend the 11th China Computer Science and Engineering Conference.

He submitted a paper on network security that was already confirmed to be included in the conference, and he was invited to speak at the conference.

It should have been something to be happy about.

After all, papers included in the conference will be published in the "WCSE Conference Proceedings" and indexed by EI Core and SCOPUS.

It is said that conference papers are more valued than journal papers in the computer field, and this is not unreasonable.

The main reason is that this emerging scientific research field is developing very fast, so there are many top conferences. Many new technologies are discussed at conferences for the first time, and then expanded and discussed in journals.

But Lu Changbin was not in a good mood at this time.

Although one of his papers was selected, the one that stole the show at today's conference happened to be the Institute of Information Engineering under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is in charge of its old enemy.

What Information Engineering demonstrated this time was a lightweight authentication method called KNOT.

Simply put, this is a lightweight AEAD (authenticated encryption with associated data) and hash algorithm based on bit slices. It has entered the second round of candidates in the world NIST lightweight cryptography standardization process. Its advantage is that it can effectively resist side channel attacks.

What's even more frustrating is that at night, people from the institute came to his room to show off their power, but he couldn't chase them away...

"Lao Lu, I heard that your laboratory is planning to engage in network security? I know you are here and have specifically reviewed your software patent standards in the past two years, and the results are remarkable! But..."

"But what's the matter? Lao He, I'm just annoying you like this, what? Do you want to say that we want to apply for national citizenship again now?"

"Hahaha, I dare not say that I am overestimating my capabilities. After all, the scientific research strength of Jiangsu University is there. But Lao Lu, technical things always have to settle over time. Our project today has been officially established from the beginning to now. It took three years to produce results and then become a national key experimental project. In science, you can't always aim too high." He Duochang said with a smile.

He came to this meeting today just to meet and chat with Lu Changbin.

What's the saying?

Having achieved good results and not showing off in front of former alumni and current competitors is like walking in brocade at night.

Yes, He Dushang and Lu Changbin completed their undergraduate studies and Ph.D. degrees at China University of Science and Technology.

After graduation, he chose different units. He Duchan entered the Chinese Academy of Sciences, while Lu Changbin became a professor at the university.

Both of them have developed well, both have been rated as academicians, and their research fields happen to be similar. It is impossible to say that there is no comparison between the two. It is probably the kind of love and killing.

When we met during the school anniversary, it was basically impossible not to exchange a few words with each other.

But like today, Lu Changbin felt that it was too much to come directly to declare war, but he still had nothing to say.

Although it is said that literature is not the first, martial arts is not the second.

But when it comes to scientific research specifically, the practicality and influence of the results can still be compared.

What's even more annoying is that the two of them have passed the age of competing for their respective achievements, and now they are competing for the achievements in their respective fields and the achievements of their disciples.

"To tell you the truth, this project was basically completed independently by Dongsheng and his team from application to project approval. Oh, by the way, you should still remember Cao Dongsheng, right? My students, they have not been too big to follow me these years. Achievements, but several of his achievements have won national awards. Oh, by the way, you may not know that he just won the title of Young Scholar of the Yangtze River Plan last year. He has recently begun to prepare to become an academician."

He Duchang patted the shoulder of the nearly 40-year-old student next to him and introduced him solemnly.

It's hard to guard against...

I was accidentally tricked by this guy again, and he could still break through the defense directly.

After all, he has brought out several doctors, but so far none of them has won this honor.

Of course, although he was punished by Versailles, he must not lose face. Lu Changbin could only suppress the anger in his heart, nodded his head in a moderate manner, and said with grace: "The results are good, Xiao Cao, come on, keep up the good work."

"Thank you, Academician Lu, for your encouragement." Cao Dongsheng nodded cautiously.

Who knows how exciting it is to cooperate with the instructor and show off.

"Not only do I have to thank Professor Lu for his encouragement, but I also want to learn more from Professor Lu. Although Professor Lu is a little inferior in teaching students in applications, he is really good at doing theory. In this aspect, I’m not as good as Professor Lu.”

Lu Changbin had no expression on his face, watching He Solo across from him performing to his heart's content.

Of course he understood the implication. It was a taunt that he was invincible in theory and was useless in practical work.

I'm very angry, but I can't express it casually.

Because if he really gets angry in this situation, not only will it not hurt He Ducho at all, but it will also make a group of people around him laugh, which will make his classmate feel even better.

After all, the rooms arranged by the organizer of this conference for important people like them are all on this floor...

"Huh... That's right, when it comes to practical combat, your Professor He is even more powerful. Xiao Cao, you may not know that back then, your Professor He was rejected by his supervisor five times because he focused on practical combat and neglected theory. It took me three years to graduate. If this were done now, I would be asked to quit."

Lu Changbin said with a kind face.

"Lao Lu, are you angry? Are you still mentioning these almanacs?"

As soon as He Duchan finished speaking, Lu Changbin felt the phone in his pocket vibrate.

He took it out and looked at it, Yu Xingwei said, and then hung up.

At this time, he was in no mood to talk to his students.

But the phone didn't stay quiet for a while, and it rang again.

"That's almost it. It's time for us to take a rest. We welcome Academician Lu to visit our institute after the meeting." He Duochang extended a sincere invitation.

"It's easy to say, easy to say! I won't give it away!"

"No, no. You're busy, you're busy!"

After sending the proud He Duchang and Cao Dongsheng out of the room and closing the door, Lu Changbin answered the phone with a cold face.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"What? Your project has produced results? I did a test this afternoon and the effect was very good?"

"No, I'm talking about Yu Xingwei, what did I tell you before? If there is any progress in this project, you have to report to me immediately. How come it suddenly yielded results when I didn't listen to your report before?"

"What? You don't know? What are you doing every day? You don't know?"

"All the programming work was done by Ning Wei alone? You always thought he was designing algorithms? I...wait, the programming was all done by Ning Wei?!"

"What? The patent has been applied for in my own name? You don't even know about this?!"
