720 American University Rating System

Niu Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment, and then showed surprise on his face: "Really?"

Watson raised his chin, "I'm the vice president of the MIT School of Computer Science, and it's too late for the presidents of those third-rate universities to please me, how can such a trivial matter not give me face?"

Niu Xiaoqiang turned around and asked with curiosity on his face: "You are not a university, why should they please you?"

Watson looked proud: "Speaking of which, this is related to the American university rating system, American universities are rated according to the hard indicators of scientific research achievements and academic research, as long as scientific research results are achieved, or progress in academic research, you can get the corresponding points, the higher the points, the higher the university's ranking, I am one of the current reviewers of the rating system, the right to speak is very heavy, of course they want to please me, in additionβ€”β€”"

Watson said this: "In addition, I can help these universities with relevant research, and with my assistance, it will definitely be relatively easy for them to produce results, and they have to curry favor with me in order to get points." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang hesitated: "You are a professor at MIT, how can the rating system allow you to be a reviewer?"

Watson waved his hand: "Americans are very particular about personal reputation, they will not deliberately favor anyone in this kind of matter, once they find out, they will be ruined, it can be said that the gains outweigh the losses, so we reviewers generally do not make this kind of low-level mistakes, of course, this is only for the rating of top universities, those third-rate universities are different, they themselves have no right to speak, if I want to make a little bad, no one will speak for them at all." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang said: To put it bluntly, isn't it bullying the weak and fearing the hard? It seems that Americans don't necessarily pay so much attention to personal credit, and when they should be bad, they are also quite bad.

"As a professor at MIT, it's not appropriate for you to help other schools with research, right?"

"Have you ever heard of joint academic research? The sponsor of the same project has the right to choose who will collaborate, which is a common thing in American universities. ”

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly, said goodbye and left. As he walked, he thought to himself: while this is easy to form a covert deal, it can also help to enliven the academic atmosphere and increase the success rate, and American universities are much more flexible in terms of policy and freedom than domestic universities.

Niu Xiaoqiang was a little distracted, and when he walked to the staircase, he was not paying attention and collided with a person.

He hurriedly took two steps back, looked up, and was stunned: "Aunt Liu, what are you doing standing here?"

Liu Hui was hit a lot, she rubbed her shoulders, and smiled embarrassedly: "Auntie just saw you go to the second floor, and knew that you must have gone to talk to Professor Watson about things, anyway, I was idle, so I waited here, wanting to see how you talked." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang felt helpless about this, and secretly thought: Liu Hui is really concerned about her daughter's affairs, and she can't wait to follow me all the time.

In order to get rid of Liu Hui, Niu Xiaoqiang had to tell the truth: "I have already talked to the professor about Liu Xue just now, and the professor promised to help, so it should not be a big problem." ”

Liu Hui was immediately overjoyed when she heard this, she even forgot the pain, she took Niu Xiaoqiang's hand, and shook it vigorously to thank her: "Xiaoqiang, thank you, thank you very much! I can finally sleep peacefully!"

Niu Xiaoqiang was modest, and then reminded: "Auntie, there is something I have to remind you, even if you don't like to listen to me, you have to say it in advance." ”

Liu Hui was curious: "What do you want to say?"

Niu Xiaoqiang's face was straight: "It's about Liu Xue, her personality is not very mature, if she goes to the United States, she may not be able to withstand the temptation of the flower world, in case she goes off the road at that time, you can't blame me." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang is not a mouthful, he really thinks that Liu Xue has a great probability of going to a fork in the road. If Liu Hui complains about Niu Xiaoqiang because of this matter, Niu Xiaoqiang will be too wronged, so he will take the preventive shot in advance.

Liu Hui hurriedly shook her head: "Don't worry, no matter what Xiaoxue becomes, I won't blame you in the future, although Auntie doesn't have a high level of education, she can still distinguish between good and bad." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang snorted, "It's not early, I'm going home to rest, Auntie should rest early, goodbye." ”

"Okay, goodbye. ”

Looking at Niu Xiaoqiang's departing back, Liu Hui sighed secretly: What a good child, it's a pity that our Xiaoxue doesn't have this blessing, if Xiaoxue can marry Xiaoqiang, I really don't have to worry about anything.

Niu Xiaoqiang was not in a hurry to go home, he entered the office on the first floor and called Yang Jing's home.

The phone rang for a long time before anyone answered, and a woman's voice was on the other side: "Who are you looking for?"

Niu Xiaoqiang guessed that this woman should be Yang Jing's lover, and he didn't sell it, so he said directly: "Hello Auntie, you should be Uncle Yang's lover, right?" I am Niu Xiaoqiang, I want to talk to Uncle Yang about something, if he is not at home, I will talk to you the same." ”

Yang Jing obviously explained to his family, so when his lover heard that it was Niu Xiaoqiang who was calling, he immediately became extremely enthusiastic: "It's Xiaoqiang, hello, hello!

"Well, the recommender has already arrived in Aoshan, please ask my uncle to tell my uncle and ask him to bring Yang Pan to Aoshan tomorrow. ”

"Okay, good! I will definitely tell him! Xiaoqiang, thank you, if you have time to come to the house as a guest, Auntie will definitely treat you well!"

"Thank you, Auntie, good night. ”

"Good night, good night!"

After hanging up the phone, Niu Xiaoqiang walked out of the guest house quickly, and walked towards home under the reflection of Haoyue.

After a night of nothing, at eight o'clock the next morning, Niu Xiaoqiang took Watson to visit the Asian Machinery Factory. Originally, Niu Xiaoqiang did not arrange this link, which was a request made by Watson.

Niu Xiaoqiang was a docent while walking:

"This was originally our factory's car assembly shop, but due to some constraints, we were no longer able to produce cars, so we have rebuilt it and will specialize in assembling motorcycles in the future. ”

"This is the car engine production workshop, which has now been converted into a motorcycle engine production workshop. ”

"This is the steelmaking workshop, from which all the metal materials of the Asian Machinery Factory are smelted. ”

"This is a machining workshop, and the production is currently producing the double donkey head oil extractor developed by our factory, and the performance of this oil extractor has reached the international leading level. ”

"This is where the research department is located, and there are currently two main R&D projects at the Asia Machinery Plant, one for the EFI unit for diesel engines and the other for the V8 engine. ”
