I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

"Hahahaha!" Yang Dingtian raised his head and laughed, he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, and coughed at the end: "Haha...cough cough...hia...hia..."

"You find it particularly funny?" Shen Qi also laughed.

"Being your doctoral student, haha, hahaha!" Yang Dingtian's expression was a little strange, he obviously cramped from laughing, but Shen Qi couldn't feel a trace of happiness from him.

Shen Qi said: "That's right, as my doctoral student, I got a Ph.D. in physics from Pugao Institute, and I have the qualifications for doctoral supervisors in two fields of mathematics and physics at Yanda."

"Cow, you're really good, hahaha!" Yang Dingtian laughed until his face twisted and deformed.

Shen Qi put away his smile and scolded: "Stop laughing so much! Yang Dingtian, you have failed to pretend to be forceful these past few years, you are not qualified to laugh in front of me!"

This sound of reprimand was thunderous and deafening, awakening the dreamer with just one word.

Yang Dingtian's laughter stopped abruptly, he stared blankly at Shen Qi with a dull expression: "Failed to pretend, I failed to pretend..."

"Following me to make a comeback is your only choice." Shen Qi stood up and left with his hands behind his back.

After walking a few steps, Shen Qi turned around and said, "If you've made up your mind, come to me on the third floor of the mathematics building and tidy up yourself. We don't accept disheveled people in our center."

Shen Qi continued to leave with his hands behind his back and never looked back.

Looking at Shen Qi's figure walking like a tiger, Yang Dingtian lowered his once proud head: "The pretense was successful, he successfully pretended to be..."

The next day, Shen Qi came to the mathematics building early in the morning after work, and found Yang Dingtian standing at the entrance of the building.

Today's Yang Dingtian is different from yesterday. He stood upright, put on brand new clothes, shaved all the stubble of his beard, and shaved a full inch of thinning hair. He also sprayed some men's energy perfume, and his mental outlook was completely renewed.

Shen Qi walked up to Yang Dingtian and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten, Director Shen." Yang Dingtian replied politely.

Shen Qi asked again: "So you have considered it?"

Yang Dingtian said firmly: "Director Shen, I want to do a Ph.D."

"Okay, follow me upstairs." Shen Qi led Yang Dingtian to the third floor to familiarize himself with the center's organizational structure and hardware facilities: "Our organizational structure is very simple, with one director and three offices. Academic research is carried out in this office, which is the physics room."

Then the two came to the laboratory, and Shen Qi asked: "This is a laboratory, you can operate these equipments."

Yang Dingtian looked at it twice, and expressed his ease: "Basic operation."

"Did you also use those high-end equipment in Yanda Academy during your master's degree?"

"I've used it a bit, so I'm familiar with it."

"That's good. We often need to entrust the Academy of Sciences to assist us in completing experiments. You have a bachelor's degree plus a master's degree. You have stayed in the Academy for so many years. You are familiar with the way and the way." Shen Qi expressed satisfaction. He said : "You wait to fill in some information, apply for a Ph.D. information, and I will take care of the rest. From now on, you will be my doctoral student in physics."

"Okay, Director Shen." Yang Dingtian has accepted the reality and adjusted his mentality. The academic world is like this, whoever has the ability will be the boss.

It is the loser who is addicted to the past and cannot extricate himself. Yang Dingtian took a difficult and important step. He became Shen Qi's first doctoral student in physics.

Shen Qi began to assign tasks: "I have a project in hand, which happens to be about condensed matter physics. I have applied for the 973 project, and the project materials are all here. It matches your graduate major. Please work hard and help me collect and process experimental data. .”

Yang Dingtian got the information and flipped through it, and said, "It's not a big problem, it's a normal operation."

"That's right, this is just like the back when the Academy of Sciences forced the king." Shen Qi took the key to the laboratory's gate and gave it to Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian put on a white coat, compared the subject materials, and adjusted the equipment.

Shen Qi asked: "Is this the start of work? Don't you need to familiarize yourself with the environment first?"

"Director Shen, I understand the intention of your project. Through the collection and processing of experimental data of various condensed matter, we will verify your theoretical hypothesis of defect topology." Yang Dingtian, who was wearing work clothes, revealed confidence in his eyes.

"So you can understand my hypothesis?" Shen Qi was surprised. The theoretical hypothesis he outlined in the project materials was still very rough, just a vague concept of the framework.

Yang Dingtian nodded: "Referring to your paper "Research on Defect Topology Based on Spherical Hotopy Groups" published on PRL, I can probably guess your next plan."

"You have done a lot of homework, and there are not many people who have the patience to read my paper. This laboratory is entrusted to you to take care of it. If you need anything, just tell me." Shen Qi's behavior toward Yang Dingtian became more and more serious. Satisfaction, enough homework, and confidence in one's major are the basic qualities of a top student.

Yang Dingtian immediately raised a demand: "I need some money."

"It's okay to ask for money, right?" Shen Qi said bluntly, and then asked: "Do you mean to give you a part of the scientific research funding that you can freely control, or your remuneration?"

Yang Dingtian said: "Funds are needed, and rewards are needed."

Yang Dingtian has just finished his Ph.D. He is not an official researcher of the center and does not receive the standard salary of a researcher.

Yanda is more benevolent and generous to the doctoral students studying in the school. Doctoral students in science and engineering can receive school awards from the school, and the average amount is about 5,000 yuan/month.

Doctoral students in science and engineering must work with project teams and laboratories, and the bosses of project teams and laboratories will also take some money from scientific research funds and pay doctoral students in the form of subsidies.

You can enjoy the money given by the boss. The generous boss will give three to five thousand yuan/month, and the stingy boss will give thousands of yuan/month. This is the treatment for doctoral students. It's even less when you're studying for a master's degree, and some bosses just spend a few hundred yuan.

Shen Qi belongs to the generous kind: "You are my doctoral student, the school gives you a school award of 5,000 yuan every month, and I will give you another 5,000 yuan a month from the project funds. Is it acceptable?"

"Very good." Yang Dingtian could accept Shen Qi's setting.

Shen Qi talked about the rules: "As for scientific research funding, we follow the rules. You make a list and write down the details. I will approve a certain amount of funds for you to freely control according to your list of needs. You need to buy materials and so on. Of course I know that it costs money. I hope you can understand that the audit side will randomly check the use of scientific research funds in our center from time to time. I am not afraid of delegating power or spending money, but it is still the same sentence, we follow the rules .”

Shen Qi is very interesting, he gave Yang Dingtian the academic status of a formal researcher.

Yang Dingtian expressed his gratitude: "Understand, fully understand, can you give me a laboratory subsidy of 5,000 yuan first?"

"Lack of money, right? I understand, I understand completely. Come on, follow me to the next door." Shen Qi led Yang Dingtian out of the laboratory and went to the general affairs room next door.
