159: Academic circles are in uproar

"Then I'll hang up first."

"Okay."

Listening to Dean Tian hang up the phone, Guo Hao took the phone away from his ear.

As for Dean Tian's idea, Guo Hao did not refuse.

The main reason was that there was no reason to refuse.

It was beneficial to himself and didn't require him to pay anything beyond his name.

It did make Guo Hao a little curious.

He originally thought that a place like Yanda Mathematics Institute should not lack top talents.

After all, given the status of Yanda Mathematics Institute, a massive number of talents join Yanda Mathematics Institute every year.

But towards himself, they lowered their status significantly.

If he remembered correctly, this was the third time Dean Tian had invited him.

Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched cottage were nothing more than this.

It seems that the situation at Peking University is not as good as he imagined; there are probably many geniuses, but they are all relatively ordinary geniuses, right?

Shaking his head, he temporarily cast these thoughts aside.

"Grandpa, I'll help you weed!"

Guo Hao said with a smile to Grandpa Shen beside him.

.........

Peking University's actions were much faster than Guo Hao had imagined.

It was just the second day after Guo Hao agreed.

Peking University and Yan Aviation issued a joint statement.

To strengthen the combination of Mathematics theory and engineering practice and cultivate more practical theoretical talents.

Peking University and Yan Aviation will jointly establish a Chen Jingrun Class.

Recruiting students at Yan Aviation!

The graduation certificate will bear the mark of the Chen Jingrun Class jointly cultivated by Peking University and Yan Aviation!

Welcome everyone to apply!

As soon as this news came out, the Academic Circle immediately exploded, and many people in universities everywhere were very curious.

Why did Yanda Mathematics Institute actually open a joint class with Yan Aviation?

What are they aiming for???

You should know that Yan Aviation's Mathematics department, in the previous subject evaluations, couldn't even get a B, at most it was a C level, and among the more than thirty 985 universities, it wasn't at the bottom, but it was at most a mid-to-lower level.

But Yanda Mathematics Institute is different!

Yanda Mathematics Institute has the existence of many Mathematics Academicians, and has also cultivated many mathematical geniuses, being the undisputed number one in Dragon Country, and having a place in the entire world of Mathematics departments.

Why would they open a joint class with Yan Aviation?

Moreover, looking at this joint statement, it seems that Yan Aviation is even the main party?

Peking University seems more like a relatively passive agreement, after all, this class is opened at Yan Aviation.

It's like Yanda Mathematics Institute is really providing technical assistance to Yan Aviation?

Is it an administrative order?

But it shouldn't be!

Haven't heard any rumors!

Many universities are asking, and many students are also asking, what exactly happened?

Why did Peking University and Yan Aviation, two universities with completely different focuses, suddenly join forces???

While everyone was curious.

An even more explosive piece of gossip instantly ignited the Academic Circle, and even spread beyond the Academic Circle.

This Chen Jingrun Class at Peking University and Yan Aviation was established for one person!

That person is Guo Hao!

Guo Hao??

People who had read some news or noticed some developments in the Mathematics world quickly understood what was going on!

"I knew it!"

"No wonder, no wonder Peking University and Yan Aviation opened a joint class, and even opened it at Yan Aviation! So that's how it is! Peking University is really taking a big gamble!"

"What's going on? Tell me!"

"Peking University really values Guo Hao! I didn't expect them to actually open a class specifically for him! 666!"

"Exactly! I heard that two days ago, Guo Hao published another SCI paper, and it was in the first district! I heard it was published in 《SIAM Review》! Super awesome! In half a year, two SCI papers in the field of pure Mathematics, and both are in the first district!"

What's even more outrageous is a paper of the level of 《SIAM Review》; even an Academician wouldn't dare say they could produce it! Truly amazing!"

"That's really awesome! It's no wonder Peking University is rushing to grovel; if it were me, I'd also rush up and grovel. A big shot of this level will probably end up as a tenured Professor at Princeton..."

"Not necessarily... Maybe Guo Hao won't go abroad?"

"Do you believe that yourself?"

"It's hard to say..."

"Haha, look at those big shots in basic science, how many haven't gone abroad? To put it bluntly, there's simply no soil for basic science to survive in the country. Among top mathematicians, how many don't have foreign educational backgrounds?"

Apart from those like Chen Jingrun and Hua Luogeng, look at other top big shots?"

"That's true, I feel that basic science education in the country is still a bit behind. Although the overall volume is okay, there have been almost no top basic science big shots, which is regrettable!"

"Didn't Xu Chenyang, one of the four talents of Yanda Mathematics Institute, return to the country to teach a while ago? He's also a top big shot, so there are big shots returning..."

"Xu Chenyang... He's okay, maybe he counts as a big shot when facing ordinary people like us, but in the entire world of Mathematics, Xu Chenyang should only be considered a minor figure, not bad, just someone who has a place?"

............

There was a lot of discussion in the Academic Circle.

And the matter of Peking University and Yan Aviation opening a joint class also caused some waves in society.

But for most ordinary people, this kind of thing is just something to watch for fun at most, after all, they know very little inside information, although there will be some discussions.

The main discussion was still in the Academic Circle, and most people's discussion was mainly focused on Guo Hao.

Most people in the Academic Circle were very curious about this legendary rising star in the Academic Circle.

Having just entered university, in just half a year, he actually published two first-district SCI papers!

In society, most people don't know what a first-district SCI represents, but for people in the Academic Circle, this thing is their lifeline!

Generally speaking, ordinary students don't get exposed to papers until their senior year.

These are their graduation theses, and as for the quality... In most cases, it's hard to describe; they are not qualified for publication at all, and even the fourth district might not accept such papers.

People truly start writing publishable papers generally after becoming graduate students, but most papers that graduate students come into contact with are basically in the third and fourth districts.

Only under the guidance of a big shot is there a chance to work on papers in the second district and above.

As for first-district papers, even a Dr. from a top university wouldn't dare say they can publish one a year.

Not to mention, this is a first-district SCI in the field of pure Mathematics. If a Professor from any university said they could publish two first-district SCI papers in the field of Mathematics in half a year, they would probably be scrutinized repeatedly.

And Guo Hao, a freshman who just entered university, just happened to do it.

This is simply like a science fiction novel, making it impossible for everyone not to pay attention!
