111 Blame him?
Ning Wei was half lying on the bed and studying the meeting schedule.
Artificial intelligence has indeed become the biggest trend of this era, which can be seen from the topic of the special guests invited to this conference.
On the first day, the total number of five guest subjects reported were almost all related to artificial intelligence. Two of them were based on deep learning, one was based on breakthroughs in random algorithms, and the other was about group intelligence algorithms to solve optimization problems. The remaining one was his turbulence algorithm.
As for the various reports on the next day, there are more, and they are spread throughout the conference rooms in the hotel. Conference participants can choose their respective topics of interest to attend presentations in different research directions.
As he watched, a feeling of sleepiness came. Ning Wei closed his eyes and leaned on the bed and fell asleep.
...
This sleep was in a dark and dark place. When Ning Wei woke up, she was awakened by the TV sound from the living room.
When he got up, Yu Xingwei was leaning leisurely on the sofa and watching TV.
“When did you wake up?”
"About ten minutes ago, Feng Shaojie called me just now and said that Professor Chen would come to see us at half past five, so I got up first. Seeing that you are sleeping soundly, I plan to call you in ten minutes."
"Oh!" Ning Wei nodded. He could probably think about how busy Professor Chen would be the day before the official opening of the conference, and rushed into the bathroom to start washing.
"What time is it?"
"It's still five minutes away."
"Oh!" Ning Wei looked out the window, it was still bright.
I was a little hungry, but fortunately I didn’t feel very hungry.
Then he sat on the sofa and watched TV with Yu Xingwei.
The CNN TV program is being played on TV, and Pierce Morgan shows tonight.
This probably belongs to a not-so-serious news interpretation column. When Ning Wei sat down, the man on TV was crazily complaining about the recent speech of a senior American official, saying that it was a pity that this senior American official would not go to Hollywood to compete for the best actors but stayed in the White House to blow air conditioning. The dog, eight kilometers of the loyal dog, was not as good as his acting skills, and the whole world owed him a little golden man...
The exaggerated tone, serious expression and waving gestures look very immersive.
Of course, what is even more exaggerated is that this is the content played by a TV station that broadcasts so-called serious news almost 24/7.
Ning Wei and Yu Xingwei looked at each other silently. Sure enough, this is very old-fashioned.
Time passed by the talk show boss's complaints, and the doorbell sounded from outside the door.
"Here you come." Ning Wei stood up, walked to the door and opened the door.
When he opened the door, Ning Wei met Professor Chen, who had heard many times in Lu Changbin for the first time.
It seems that last year, I was probably younger than Director Lu. I was wearing a pair of black framed glasses, my eyebrows were slightly raised, and my thin lips looked very serious. The decent black striped formal outfit magnified this sense of seriousness exponentially.
Feng Shaojie, who was standing behind him, also changed into a gray suit, no longer had the flying jump when he was with them alone, and seemed focused and calm.
However, when the door was opened, his calm appearance lasted for less than a second. The guy blinked at Ning Wei behind Professor Shen, his true nature was fully exposed.
"Hello, Professor Chen, please come in."
Ning greeted me honestly.
"Hello, Professor Chen!" Yu Xingwei had already stood up in the room and said hello.
He subconsciously wanted to make tea, but suddenly he remembered that there was no such thing as tea in the room, so he simply went to get two bottles of water.
"You are Ning Wei, it's similar to the video. You are Xiao Yu. Lao He often praises you on the phone, saying that you are a student he has accepted for so many years, and the one who best reflects the word "wise and foolish." Seeing Yu Xingwei, Professor Chen showed a smile on his face and commented.
Seeing what he said, Yu Xingwei didn't know whether he was praising him or hurting him, so he could only stand there and smile silly.
Well, it's more like a wise man.
"Everyone sit down, they are all their own people, and there is no need to be restrained. Speaking of which, I have been in love with you Professor Lu for nearly twenty years. At that time, we were all studying abroad at Berkeley, but the research directions are different. I still remember that the topic you Professor Lu studied after returning to China was the surface reconstruction algorithm with a large number of scattered points."
"Don't underestimate this research direction. You should know that it was only 2000 at that time, and computer technology was not as mature as it is now. Especially the domestic Internet industry was still in a teenage stage, so this research direction was already an extremely cutting-edge topic at that time."
"Including the measurement modeling used by many high-precision enterprises in China now, as well as the application in the field of computer vision, etc., the basis is the theory that you Professor Lu studied at that time."
Shen Zheqing's words brought the relationship between several people into a lot, which made Ning Wei deeply touched him.
Sure enough, those who can be elected as academicians of the National Academy of Sciences are all great people.
But the times have changed too quickly, especially the computer field has developed too fast in the past 20 years. From hardware to software, not to mention twenty years ago, many things have tended to be eliminated two years ago.
This also made Ning Wei yearn for it. Perhaps one day in the future, his scientific research results can also lay the foundation for the future.
"Okay, let's not talk about Lao Lu, Ning Wei, are you ready for tomorrow's report?" Professor Chen changed his tone and led the question to the main business.
Ning Wei nodded quickly and replied, "You are ready. Professor Lu attaches great importance to this meeting and is urging me to sort out the papers in China every day."
Professor Chen nodded slightly and said, "Well, I know that I have read your speech, there is no problem. But the focus of the report meeting is not on your reporting time, but on the questioning session. Your report meeting is known to include editors of top journals such as JACM, ACM-TOWS, IEEE TKDE, technical executives of high-tech companies such as Microsoft, Intel, Dell, AT&T, Cisco, etc., as well as many professors from the Ivy League and celebrity masters in the industry."
"Don't show your timidity at that time, just deal with it with it calmly. When encountering difficult questions, you can tell them directly without answering them. Due to time constraints, you can discuss them privately. However, with the level you show in your paper, I believe you can complete this 60-minute report well."
"60 minutes?" Hearing Professor Chen's words, Yu Xingwei next to him couldn't help but sigh in surprise.
You should know that at such a top academic conference, it is already a great honor to be able to speak on stage. The conference has taken great attention to the performance of forty-five minutes, and sixty minutes is a treatment that only big players in the industry can get.
"Yes, 60 minutes. But this has nothing to do with me. There are indeed many people who are interested in Ning Wei's turbulence algorithm. As the data report in your laboratory reflects, this algorithm provides another simpler solution to repair some exploitable vulnerabilities in network communication protocols, which is very valuable." Professor Chen commented very pertinently.
As soon as he finished speaking, the professor's cell phone rang.
After answering the phone and responding twice, Professor Chen stood up: "Okay, today is quite busy. An old friend just arrived. We made an appointment to have dinner together today, so I won't be with you anymore."
"It's okay, don't worry about us, just go and do it."
"Okay, Shaojie, Ning Wei and Xiaoyu will leave it to you. You can take them to communicate more with the young people in the hotel, but there is one thing that you can't leave the hotel." Professor Chen turned his head and explained to Feng Shaojie.
"Don't worry, Professor Chen, I know."
...
When Shen Zheqing left, Feng Shaojie was obviously relieved: "Huh, do you want to go to the buffet directly? Or will I take you to experience the happy PATY exclusively for young people?"
After Yu Xingwei and Ning Wei looked at each other, Ning Wei said decisively: "Let's go and have a buffet. Let's eat something simple and then go back to the room."
"This choice... Foreigners' Paty has never lacked exotic beauties."
Ning Wei shook his head firmly and said, "To be honest, my brother Yu has never been interested in beauty. Why not do this? Brother Feng just takes us to the restaurant, and then you go to play with yours, and we just go back to the room after eating."
Hearing this, Yu Xingwei rolled his eyes. What was even more annoying was that Feng Shaojie's eyes looked at him were obviously ambiguous.
"I'm not even interested in men!" Finally, I couldn't help but argue.
"Oh, I understand! Okay, two ascetic monks, come with me, say nothing of exaggeration, you miss the best thing at the best age." Feng Shaojie spread his hands and commented.
...
Following Feng Shaojie to the buffet restaurant prepared by the conference organizer, Ning Wei probably understood why the buffet is called a cold dinner here.
Looking around, there are the most exquisite desserts. Fortunately, there are self-service sandwiches and soups in small bowls, as well as various wines.
"The conference has not started yet, so the dishes are not very complete. You can just eat it. I won't accompany you."
After taking the two to the restaurant, Feng Shaojie left the words and left directly. Obviously, he was very yearning for the so-called young people's PATY.
It was the meal time that there were many people in the restaurant. Ning Wei and Yu Xingwei lined up in line at the long table full of snacks, selecting various foods. Of course, this did not prevent Yu Xingwei from complaining: "Mr. Xiao Ning, I am actually very interested in beauties, especially exotic beauties."
Anyway, the Chinese they speak, both of them are blonde and blue-eyed Westerners, and they are likely to not understand.
"Do you want to participate in the PATY that Brother Feng said?" Ning Wei asked casually.
"That's not there..."
"That's all, you don't want to go anyway. I actually want to see you, mainly to take care of your ideas, so I refused."
With such meticulous logic, Yu Xingwei was speechless, and the unique implicitness of the Chinese people harmed him.
"What do you want to see?"
"A decadent capitalist life!"
The two of them were chatting and stuffing things into their mouths.
Anyway, the people in the restaurant are strangers to them, so naturally they don’t care much about their image. Ning Wei is not busy socializing like other people in the restaurant, but chooses to fill himself in the most efficient way.
So he circled around the dining table and solved his stomach problem. Ning Wei planned to greet Yu Xingwei and go straight back to the room.
Just at this moment, accompanied by the sound of "dadada" footsteps, a gust of fragrant wind blew. A young lady from the Western Regions dressed in a black evening dress, passed by Ning Wei. At that moment, a coincidence happened. The young lady's high heels suddenly broke and exclaimed "oh...", and she lost her balance and fell towards Ning Wei.
It was so sudden that Ning Wei subconsciously extended his hand and held it on the back of the foreign lady. Everything was done in an instant. When Ning Wei reacted, he looked down and saw a rather delicate and fair face, his moist eyes, trembling eyelashes, and his slightly curly golden hair.
Wait, the hand that held on the young lady's back felt a little wrong, it was slippery, cool, and elastic, a bit like... genuine leather?
Ning Wei was shocked...
At this moment, his hand made a decision faster than his brain. Before he could fully support the young lady and stand up, he quickly pulled back the right hand that was holding on the other person's back.
“my god…”
After losing support, the young lady who had already broken her high heels sat on the ground without any image after losing her support.
The scream is likely because of an accident. It is a half-squat position, so the fall is not heavy. The loss of points is mainly due to the image...
Everyone around was stunned, and the hasty screams attracted all their attention to this.
The time to test the speed of reaction came, Yu Xingwei took a step forward with lightning speed and helped the young lady up before almost everyone could react.
He asked thoughtfully: "Miss, are you okay?"
"Thank you, I'm fine." The young lady thanked her very perfunctorily, then looked at Ning Wei angrily and asked, "But why?"
Many people looked at Ning Wei, after all, the actions just now were indeed very ungenius.
"No, why do you seem to be wearing no clothes on your back?" Ning Wei asked innocently, spreading his hands.
"Ha..." As soon as Ning Wei finished speaking, the kind-hearted laughter made the awkward atmosphere disappear, and there were even a few slightly praised eyes on Ning Wei...
As Feng Shaojie said, this is a country full of contradictions. Perhaps many people have open ideas, but the mainstream social class will definitely not lack people who advocate the Puritan lifestyle. For them, it is normal for them to live a conservative life before marriage.
"So you've never seen a girl wearing a backless evening dress before?" the young lady asked in an incredible tone.
Ning Wei shook his head honestly. The laughter around him became less, but he became happier. This young man from the east is very interesting...
But Ning Wei was really wronged. He was just an ordinary senior student and had not even had time to enter society. Every day, he saw ordinary seniors around him. Who would wear such outfits on campus?
