This year's thesis defense was held at Jin Ling University's rival, Eastern University. The judges were a few prestigious academics in the aerospace industry. The titles hanging on the judges' table were scary. There was the chairman of the Jiangsu Aerospace Technology Research Association, the honorary professor of the University of Aerospace Industry …
In short, just the title alone was enough to give Lu Zhou a sense of pressure.
Sitting in the lounge prepared by Eastern University, Lu Zhou repeatedly read the A4 paper manuscript. Wang Xiaodong and Lu Zhou occasionally discussed possible problems in the thesis defense. Lin Yuxiang sat next to them and blinked her eyes. She was ready to pour tea for Wang Xiaodong.
The thesis defense was mainly conducted by Lu Zhou. Wang Xiaodong supplemented on the side. However, Lu Zhou did not have high hopes for him.
He could condense a modeling problem that would take ten sentences to explain into one sentence. He could also explain a bunch of coding problems. He was strong, but he could not explain it. He was like a character in a martial arts TV series. He had high internal energy, but he could not fight.
There was no hope for Lin Yuxiang. She was just running errands. Although she said she would be in charge of the defense, it seemed that even if you asked her how she calculated the landing coordinates, she would only look at the two people next to her with a "pitiful and helpless" look.
Sure enough, I have to rely on myself.
Just like this, Lu Zhou, who carried the entire game, once again carried the banner of the thesis defense.
The powerpoint was very simple. Lu Zhou just had to cut out some things from the thesis.
Lu Zhou had rehearsed the thesis defense several times. He was not nervous when he went up.
The thesis defense process was divided into two parts. One was the explanation of the thesis, and the other was the expert judges' questions. Each part was limited to about eight minutes. The main purpose was to verify the authenticity of the thesis.
Lu Zhou first quickly went through the powerpoint and explained his mathematical modeling ideas. Then, in the second part, the expert judges asked two questions. Lu Zhou also answered them fluently.
In the end, the old professor, who was the president of the Jiangsu Aerospace Technology Research Association, smiled and gave him a thumbs up. Then, he signaled that the defense was over and he could go back.
After walking out of the lecture hall, Lu Zhou walked past the leader of the next team. He let out a long breath and felt relaxed.
At this time, Lin Yuxiang came over and said excitedly, "Captain, you're amazing. The professor gave you a thumbs up."
Lu Zhou: "It's probably customary?"
"How could this be?!" Lin Yuxiang pouted and said happily, "While you guys were preparing, I peeked at someone else's thesis defense. That old professor was expressionless the entire time. When it came to us, his expression changed. "
You even noticed that?!
Lu Zhou thought seriously for a moment.
Finally, he spoke with an uncertain tone, "Perhaps … it's because I'm too handsome?"
Wang Xiaodong: "…"
Lin Yuxiang: "…"
They took the school bus back to the university.
Lu Zhou noticed that Luo Rundong was not in a good mood. He did not know if there was a small problem during the defense or if there was some other reason, but Luo Rundong did not talk to his other two teammates.
As for the others, they were more or less talking about the defense.
"How was your defense?"
"It was okay, the professor's questions were too tricky."
"Yeah yeah, it was really difficult for us to choose question B."
"I'm laughing, do you think he didn't make it difficult for us to choose question A? At most, he would ask you guys about the size of the table, but for us, he's asking you how to fly! "
"Okay, okay, the defense is just to see if the thesis was written by yourself. It doesn't add any points to the competition, so it's fine as long as you pass."
"I think there's still some impact. I heard that there's a limit to the number of works that can be sent to the national area. The defense will be based on the competition …"
Lu Zhou did not join their discussion. Instead, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
It was around five o 'clock in the afternoon when the school bus returned to the new campus of the University of Jin Ling.
When Lu Zhou returned to his dorm, the three animals surrounded him before he could put down his backpack.
Huang Guangming was the first to ask, "Zhou, how was the defense? Did you get first place in the country? "
"It was okay," said Lu Zhou ambiguously.
Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, the three animals dispersed and went back to their seats.
Liu Rui, "It's settled."
Huang Guangming, "It's settled, it's settled. We'll have a meal."
Shi Shang, "Brother Lu's' okay 'is equivalent to Brother Rui's' failed '. We know what you mean."
Liu Rui was unhappy. He slammed the table and said, "F * ck me, why are you talking about me again?"
Lu Zhou:???
…
The list of winners was released.
Without any suspense, it was the first place in the country!
However, to Lu Zhou's surprise, the mission was not that simple.
After he heard the news of the award, he repeatedly entered the system space several times. The mission was always in the [In Progress] state.
Do I have to wait for the certificate to be completed?
But didn't the previous thesis mission complete once the review was passed?
Just when Lu Zhou was wondering if his system was stuck, Professor Liu Xiangping called him and asked him to go to his office.
With a stomach full of questions, Lu Zhou went to Professor Liu Xiangping's office.
When Liu Xiangping saw Lu Zhou walk in, he smiled and gestured for him to find a place to sit.
He then said, "Your team's work has been selected by the international judges. You're invited to Beijing for an expert interview. Go back and tell your teammates. Pack your things and gather at the school gate in three days. I'll drive you to the train station. "
The expert interview had to be at least the first place in the country. After the interview, the judges would announce the winners of the Higher Education Society Cup and the Matlab Innovation Award. These two awards would not be divided into AB questions. Instead, they would be divided into the undergraduate group and the professional group. In other words, the champion and the runner-up.
"Expert interview? So I have to defend? "Lu Zhou was dumbfounded.
Why is a mathematical modeling competition so troublesome?
"Yes, prepare your powerpoint. It's best if you can make some changes. This time, you're going to Beijing. The interview will be held at Yan University. You'll be tested by the National Organizing Committee! "said Professor Liu Xiangping as he took a sip of tea. He then said," Do your best and try to win the Higher Education Society Cup. "
This was the most worry-free team he had ever led.
He was especially satisfied with the team leader.
Talent was one thing, but what was rare was that he was humble and could listen to other people's opinions. Although there were some flaws in his personality, like Professor Tang said, the flaws did not obscure the gems.
Professor Liu looked at Lu Zhou's reluctant face and put down his vacuum flask. He then laughed and said, "What's wrong, you're not happy? The school will reimburse you for your round-trip train ticket and send you to Beijing for three days. If I were you, I'd interview a few more times! "
I see …
Is it because the competition is not over yet, so the system determined that my mission is not completed?
In other words, winning the first place in the country was only a basic condition for completing the mission.
If I want to get a higher mission rating, I have to aim for a higher award.
Following this clue, the Matlab Innovation Award should correspond to an S rating. As for the Higher Education Society Cup, which symbolized the championship … it should be an S + rating!
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and looked at Professor Liu as he said, "I understand, I'll inform my teammates!"
