"Luo, pay attention to observing the galaxies brighter than 13.5 magnitude in the Shapley and Ames catalogs today. At 2:45 minutes and 32 seconds yesterday morning, there was a transient abnormality in the superpulse in that area."
"Okay, leave it to me." Luo Shu put his coat on the office chair, then placed the latte in his hand in front of the screen.
Hearing the abnormal phenomenon, Luo Shu complained in his heart: Is there anything more abnormal than what I observed on Mauna Kea?
The anomaly observed that time completely changed the trajectory of his fate.
A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise.
For the first twenty years of his life, Luo Shu had always been quite disdainful of ancient Chinese proverbs.
In his view, blessings are blessings, and misfortunes are misfortunes. "Misfortune lies where blessings rely, and misfortune lies where misfortune lies." It is just the comfort given by outsiders to those who encounter misfortune.
But after more than a year of miraculous operations, he has gained awe of the mystery of fate and a new understanding of the interdependence of blessings and misfortunes.
After the observatory on Mauna Kea received radio wave signals from Pluto, Roshu was first imprisoned for several days.
After he came out, he was directly banned from going to the observatory, and his original project was completely out of the question.
Without data, you can't write a paper or graduate.
The tutor asked him to change his direction. He was in the third year of his Ph.D.
It may even take ten years to study for a PhD if it doesn't go well.
Luo Shu learned from the pain and decided to switch from a PhD to a master's degree, communicate with his supervisor to be merciful, and graduate as soon as possible.
A master's degree is a master's degree.
I have only seen this in online chats, but I have friends who are like this when it comes to converting from a PhD to a master's degree. This kind of case is not uncommon.
It's easy to get stuck while reading a PhD.
Since he was affected, it was a completely unforeseen disaster. His doctoral supervisor knew this very well, so he was very attentive in helping him convert his PhD to a master's degree and graduate as soon as possible.
The result was a magical operation. First of all, Luo Shu graduated quickly and successfully.
Luo Shu originally planned to return to China to see if he could find a doctorate degree or find a corresponding job first.
His family belongs to him and can support him for the rest of his life without working. If it were not for this condition, he would not study astronomy.
In addition, Luo Shu himself has made some money in the capital market during his years at Amerikan. Going back and lying down is still an option.
As a result, before he could make up his mind, his doctoral supervisor came to him and said that his former student was working at Apple and asked him what he thought and if he could recommend him if he wanted to go.
Luo Shu was surprised and asked if he was a transcode farmer?
Switching code farmers is also a way, after all, all roads lead to it.
Many people who go to AMERICAN for graduate school, regardless of their major, have converts.
When Shi Yigong was studying for his Ph.D. at Ameliken, he didn't get a master's degree in computer science as a retreat.
It's not that Luo Shu hasn't thought about this path, it's just that he has very little interest in computers.
Moreover, temporary transcoders generally need to spend a year to learn the relevant knowledge and brush leetcode.
Luo Shu has always believed in the principle of not forcing yourself to do things you don’t like.
So he gave up on the road of converting code farmers just thinking about it.
"No, I'm still doing astronomy-related work. You have to go and find out the specific work content. I probably know the details but I can't reveal it to you now."
"You have signed a confidentiality agreement before, I believe you can guess what it is."
So Luo Shu successfully joined Apple, and the job content was exactly as he expected, engaging in magic coin mining.
The American government does not use Chinese students or even Chinese Americans. This does not mean that Apple does not use them.
The vast majority of America's science and engineering students are Asian, and the majority of them are Chinese and Asan.
If we don’t look for Chinese people, we can’t find enough people to do the work.
Not only did he get a work visa, but his income at Apple was slightly higher than that of programmers recruited from the school.
For Luo Shu, these are not important. What is important is that he can come into contact with magic coin and magic.
He originally thought that magic had no chance with him, but now there seems to be some hope.
From Hawaii we came to Texas, the largest state in the south of America.
Apple spent heavily to build a new observatory near Fort Davis, Texas. However, Luo Shu works in Austin and only occasionally goes to the observatory.
The Internet makes data transmission too convenient.
After Luo Shu sat down, he browsed through the email as usual and responded promptly.
After replying to the email, check WeChat again, chat for a few words, and then start the day's work.
Proper paddling is a necessary skill at work, let alone in Amerikan. The paddling skills of the Asans made Luo Shu feel inferior.
"It's really unlucky. It's my unlucky mother who opened the door for me." Luo Shu's high school friend sent a message eight hours ago.
Luo Shu asked: "How to say?"
After graduating from college, they both chose to study for Ph.D.s. They had many topics in common and would often chat online. They would also go out to have dinner together when they returned to their hometown during the Chinese New Year.
"Kechuang Biotechnology has released a new lithium battery cathode material with an energy density of 700wh/kg. My graduation project has to be completely overturned and restarted.
I was about to graduate, and now I have to draft a new topic, Science and Technology Biotechnology nmsl! "
Luo Shu couldn't help laughing at his workstation. His high school classmate studied for a Ph.D. in Aurora. He majored in chemistry as an undergraduate, and his research direction during his Ph.D. was exactly the direction of lithium batteries, which has become a hot topic recently.
"Actually, it's nothing. I also transferred from a Ph.D. to a Master's degree and graduated early. Sometimes it's not shameful to downgrade from Ph.D. to Master's. It's a way out when you're desperate." Luo Shu couldn't help but joke.
The other party said angrily: "Go, go, go!"
"If I could get a job at Apple if I could convert from a Ph.D. to a Master's degree, I would be willing to do so. I would convert from a Ph.D. to a Master's degree without any hesitation and graduate!"
"It's a pity that if I change my doctorate to a master's degree, I will have to go to BYD to drive screws."
This is just his Versailles words. With the popularity of new energy in recent years, it will not be a problem for a bachelor's degree in Aurora lithium battery to get a general contract offer of more than 300,000 yuan.
"Stop being so sarcastic here."
Luo Shu stopped joking and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
"Of course I have to change the direction. I can't publish the paper in the current direction. Science and Technology Biotech directly piles the energy density to such a high level that I can't publish my paper in the first SCI area and I won't be able to graduate.
emo. "
Aurora's doctoral graduation requirements are still very high. Since everyone is very demanding in the material direction, the graduation requirements are getting higher year by year.
Luo Shu consoled him: "In the worst case, it won't matter if you change your doctorate to a master's degree and start working. Anyway, after you graduate with a doctorate, you plan to go to the industry instead of looking for a teaching position."
"The problem is that there is a big difference between graduating with a master's degree and graduating with a PhD. If I graduate with a PhD and go to CATL or BYD, there is a high probability that I can directly lead a research group.
If you have a master's degree, don't even think about it.
Moreover, I have studied for three years, and graduation is just around the corner. I really don’t want to switch to a master’s degree.
I still have to struggle a little more.
Kechuang Biotechnology can achieve a lithium battery energy density of 700wh/kg, which must be a breakthrough in materials.
Cathode materials, anode materials, and electrolytes must be one of these three parts to achieve a breakthrough.
I just hope now that there is no breakthrough in the cathode material.
If the other two materials achieve breakthroughs, I can bring them back to life based on the science and technology of science and technology. The direction I am working on is the optimization of cathode materials.
If it is anode material, send it directly. "
Luo Shu had a vague hunch that Murphy's Law was about to take effect.
However, he comforted him on WeChat, "I guess so. It's not that unlucky. How could all the unlucky things happen to you?"
Two days later, Luo Shu saw another message from his friend a few hours ago: "When are you free? Chat via voice."
After get off work in the afternoon, Luo Shu sat in his Tesla and called the other party. Before he could speak, he heard the wailing coming from the phone:
"Sent!"
"Big post, special post!"
"Kechuang Biotechnology is making cathode materials, and the most terrifying thing is that their technology can be industrialized and mass-produced!"
"It's not that kind of laboratory product. MD is too scary. What kind of black technology is Kechuang Biotech?"
“The capacity is at least two times higher than that of lithium batteries currently on the market, and can be improved if optimized.”
"I was hurt. The direction of lithium battery cathode materials was directly killed by Kechuang Biotech. Before getting the design plan from Kechuang Biotech, all the work was in vain."
"Even if you get the design plan of Kechuang Bio's cathode material, it will be difficult to innovate. It is easy to go from 1 to 10. Ke Chuang Bio has directly increased it to 100. It is too difficult to go up based on 100."
"I'm ready to convert from Ph.D. to Master's degree."
Luo Shu had been waiting for his friend to vent his grievances, and finally felt relieved when he heard that he was planning to transfer from a Ph.D. to a M.A.:
"Actually, I have already guessed that Kechuang Biotechnology's lithium battery technology is an optimization of the cathode material, but I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to bear it."
The other party was shocked: "I got the inside information from my tutor from the students at the battery factory. How did you know?"
Luo Shu explained: "Almost all the stocks in the A-share new energy sector have been rising recently, but the leader in cathode materials has already hit two lower limits. Doesn't this make it clear that Kechuang Biotech's lithium battery is an innovation in cathode materials? ?”
"You are awesome. I only buy funds and ETFs and not individual stocks. I really didn't expect that."
"Oh, it's so difficult. I'm confused even after I graduated with a master's degree."
Luo Shu joked: “Actually, you can continue in the previous direction, just change the title and overview.
Perhaps the previous overview was that a new material has achieved a breakthrough in the energy density of lithium batteries.
You almost have the same content, but then you express it in a nutshell and change it to why this material doesn't work, and what are the shortcomings compared with the cathode material of Kechuang Biotechnology.
Originally I wrote about the advantages, but now I write about the disadvantages. Anyway, the data are the same, but the conclusion has been changed. "
The other party was speechless: "You still think, isn't this purely a serious illness? I guess I can only write it down and publish it in the Aurora school magazine."
