Looking at the bedroom where her son Su Zhe stayed, Yang Xiuzhi was very satisfied. This two-bedroom apartment was fully equipped and much better than the house she rented while working outside.
Su Zhe was a little excited, but also a little confused, and asked: "Brother Xiaoming! Are the accommodation conditions for graduate students so good? I can't believe it."
He still knows common sense.
In China, few universities provide such accommodation for master's degree students, let alone an ordinary second-level university like Shangri-La University.
"Well... I'm not a graduate student at Shangling University, but at Lingzhou University of Technology. I'll tell you the details later. Now go to the cafeteria to get a campus card. If you wait, the staff will get off work." Fan Xiaoming smiled. explain.
"Okay!" Su Zhe understood a little bit.
In the ranking of domestic universities, Lingzhou University of Science and Technology ranks around ten. It is a serious double first-class, 985, and 211 university.
Of course, there is still a big gap between Qingdao University and Yanda University.
It can be known from the destination of the number one scholar in each province every year that Qingdao University and Yanda University are the first choices.
other……
There is nothing more.
Arriving at the campus service center in the cafeteria, Su Zhe's campus card was quickly applied for.
Then, a group of four people had lunch in the cafeteria.
Afterwards, the group bought some things at the school supermarket and returned to the dormitory.
Yang Xiuzhi and Fan Xiaohui were busy cleaning Su Zhe's room.
Su Zhe wanted to intervene but was refused, so he had to sit in the living room and chat with Fan Xiaoming.
Fan Xiaoming was sitting on the sofa, looking at the mathematics test paper in his hand, and sighed: "This year's college entrance examination, mathematics is too difficult. It is much harder than ours back then. You can get full marks in the exam, which is really amazing. And For the last question, there is a problem with the standard answer, and the answer you gave is completely correct."
Su Zhe smiled and said nothing.
"Xiao Zhe! Are you planning to go to Qingdao University or Yantai University? What major do you want to study? Have you ever thought about going to Lingzhou University of Science and Technology? Lingzhou University of Science and Technology is still very good, ranking among the top ten in the country." Fan Xiaoming knew. It was impossible to get Su Zhe into their school, but he was willing to try if he succeeded.
"I haven't decided which university I want to go to. As for my major, I should choose one of physics, chemistry, and biology." Su Zhe replied.
"Okay! It seems that you are not going there for the money." Fan Xiaoming knew that many top picks majored in either economics or management, and the purpose was self-evident. "Well, study physics! Physics is the basis of natural science, even if If you don’t study physics in the future, it will be easy to switch to chemistry and biology.”
"Let me think about it!" Su Zhe didn't want to make such a quick decision, "Brother Xiaoming! What major are you studying? How come a graduate student from Lingzhou University of Technology ended up at Shanngling University?"
"I studied physics! I have undergraduate and master's degrees. As for coming to Lingnan University, it's because of my boss Bao Xueyi. My boss...the tutor is very good. He graduated with a bachelor's degree at the age of 19 and a doctorate at the age of 23. He also went abroad for exchanges. After two years of study, I returned to Lingzhou University of Science and Technology. I became a full professor at the age of 28. Now I am in my early 30s and have a bald head... What’s really annoying is that last year, when I was in my third year of graduate school, my supervisor actually ran away. When I came to Shangling University, I had no choice but to come with him as a secondment," Fan Xiaoming explained.
"Uh! What is your tutor's research direction?" Su Zhe asked curiously.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "Our high-end chips are being strangled by foreign countries, mainly high-end EUV lithography machines. There are three major problems in manufacturing high-end EUV lithography machines: EUV light source, dual workpiece stage and optical lens. You should know this!"
"I know that high-end chips are being strangled, but I don't know about the rest." Su Zhe said straightforwardly.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know." Fan Xiaoming coughed and continued, "Now, the research team of Tsinghua University has almost finished the EUV light source. The team of HKUST has completed the development of the dual workpiece stage, leaving only the optical lens, and I My old... mentor is engaged in optical lenses for EUV lithography machines."
"So awesome!" Su Zhe looked envious.
Fan Xiaoming enjoyed seeing Su Zhe's envious look.
"Does that mean that the manufacturing of EUV lithography machines is just waiting for the optical lenses developed by mentor Xiaoming?" Su Zhe asked.
"No! There are other teams doing research. These projects cannot rely on just one research team. For example, my uncle, Professor Niu Guanghui from Lingzhou University of Technology, is also researching EUV light sources." Fan Xiaoming explained.
"This is indeed safer." Su Zhe thought for a while and said, "Researching EUV lithography machine lenses is very expensive! Does Shangling University have so much funding?"
Shangling University is an ordinary second-tier university. It would be good if it had a funding of one billion a year, but I still thought it was more.
"Shangling University doesn't have that much funding, but my tutor is rich! He is the second generation of rich people. Do you know Shangling Optics in our city? He belongs to my tutor's family." Fan Xiaoming said somewhat mysteriously.
"I know this!"
Su Zhe knew about Shangling Optics.
As a star enterprise in Shangling City, Shanling Optical has annual sales of more than 10 billion, and the various optical lenses it produces account for the vast majority of mid- to low-end optical lenses.
"What my mentor wants to do now is to impact the high-end market of optical lenses with Shangling Optics. For this, my mentor has spent a lot of money. Let me tell you..."
After listening to Fan Xiaoming's narration, Su Zhe realized that there were really many stories in it.
In order to enter the high-end market of optical lenses, Shanling Optics invested in establishing a national optical lens R&D center at Shanngling University, led by Bao Xueyi, the young boss of Shanling Optics and mentor of Fan Xiaoming.
Bao Xueyi directly challenged the most difficult subject, the optical lens of the EUV lithography machine.
"Brother Xiaoming! Your mentor's ambition is really big. He took on the most difficult challenge from the very beginning. If he really succeeds, wouldn't the international companies that manufacture high-end optical lenses collapse?"
"That's for sure!" Fan Xiaoming said with his head held high.
"So what's the current progress? When will the optical lens for the EUV lithography machine be manufactured?" Su Zhe asked with some anticipation.
Fan Xiaoming coughed and said hesitantly: "Come on, come on! Well, it's almost done. When my sister and aunt leave, I'll take you to the library."
As he spoke, he stood up.
The reason why he didn't say it was because he didn't know when he would succeed.
Sorry to say it!
Su Zhe also stood up. Seeing that Fan Xiaoming didn't say anything, he didn't ask any more questions.
As soon as he stood up, his mother and head teacher came to the living room.
Fan Xiaohui smiled and said to Su Zhe: "We are back to Nanmen County. If you don't understand anything, ask my brother. If he makes things difficult for you, tell me and I will let him know why the flowers are so red."
Su Zhe smiled and looked at Fan Xiaoming who was standing aside.
"Sister! Don't worry, there is a common language between top students and top students. Judging from Su Zhe's college entrance examination results, maybe I will follow him in the future. At that time, sister, please help me to say nice things. ." Fan Xiaoming said jokingly.
After he finished speaking, everyone laughed.
