"Teacher Qu, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, Minister Yang, what can I do?"

"It's just a good time to not sleep. The situation is like this. There is good news from the School of Mathematics. One of our students independently completed a paper published in the world-class mathematics journal "Duke Mathematics Magazine". The School of Mathematics hopes to use the current The excitement of the admissions season hasn’t completely dissipated yet, so let’s promote it well. I thought if you haven’t gone to bed yet, I might as well use the school’s official account to post a short video to warm up.”

"That's really good news. Did the School of Mathematics provide the materials?"

"Well, Lao Xu said that the "Duke Mathematics Journal" is a bimonthly publication, so it will be officially published next month. But the paper has already been published in the electronic version, and he directly screenshotted a picture and sent it to me. Wait a minute I will send you the picture via WeChat, and you can use it as material. By the way, let me highlight that this paper was independently completed by a newly recruited freshman from the School of Mathematics under the guidance of an associate professor of our school. .”

"Ah? A prospective freshman? No, Minister Yang, are you sure you want to highlight this? I'm afraid it's not good? Do you want to confirm with the School of Mathematics?"

"Oh? What's wrong?"

"A prospective freshman submits a paper to the world's top journals... Well, how should I put it... This matter can easily cause controversy. You may not know that this kind of thing happened in the university next door some time ago, and it was even on the hot search list. Yes. It makes the school very passive."

"Is that so? But it's okay. Lao Xu specifically told me that this paper from the School of Mathematics can withstand investigation. There is absolutely nothing like what you think. They just want to highlight the abilities of the young professors in our school. You Don’t worry, there will be no problem.”

"Um...are you sure?"

"Teacher Qu, what's wrong? You mean you can't trust me? How about I ask Dean Xu of the School of Mathematics to call you personally later?"

"No, no, no, Minister Yang, you misunderstood. I really don't mean it. Then, you can send me the materials later, and then I will design the copy and send it to you via WeChat. You think it's okay? Should I just send it directly?"

"Can!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you to send the materials."

"By the way, Lao Xu is my old friend after all. He asked me to help him this time, so I have to have an attitude. In this way, after the video is posted, remember to ask the students in the school news agency to forward it more; don't do it. I feel so sorry for money, so I will allocate a special amount of funds for publicity."

"Uh, okay, Minister Yang. Promise to complete the task."

"That's it, thank you for your hard work, Teacher Qu."

"It's not hard, it's not hard. Then hang up first and we'll contact you via WeChat."

"good."



On the other side, Zhuo Wenyou was also busy with his phone.

"Brother Xinglu, I haven't contacted you for a long time. What have you been busy with recently?"

"Haha, Director Yang, what else can I do? Just keep doing my job."

"By the way, your official account is still in operation, right?"

"Well, yes, it has been operating? What's wrong? What are your needs?"

"Oh, that's good. I'm just asking you to do me a favor. This year our Admissions Office has recruited a good candidate for the School of Mathematics. He can independently publish articles in the world's top mathematics journals just after his freshman year. I'm thinking about this. We need to promote it well, so I would like to ask you to help write an article and help us promote it.”

"Huh? This is a good thing! No problem. But do you have the information?"

"I have sent you the specific information via WeChat. To be honest, this child had an amazing talent for mathematics in high school. We discovered it. Of course, the key point is that he achieved this result under the guidance of our school professors. "

"Then wait a minute. I'll check if the information is complete first... Hey, Director Zhuo, there's no child's name in your information? Only the professor's name?"

"Well, the child is too young and has not yet reached adulthood, so it is difficult to promote it directly. In short, you should focus on promoting the admissions office. For work, our admissions office teacher Yu Chenggong, under the guidance of the admissions office's detailed work policy, went deep into the general public The first line of high school students should investigate in detail the fighting spirit of high-quality students, and then casually express the educational philosophy of professors in the School of Mathematics."

"Oh! Haha... That's it! Director Zhuo, I would like to ask, is there someone under you who is not obedient and wants to beat him up?"

"Where did you go? Anyway, just try to promote it in a positive way."

"Okay, no problem. I just haven't slept yet. After you finish sending the information later, I will sort it out and write the article and send it out directly."

"Thank you very much, Brother Xinglu."

"Looking at what you said, I have to thank Director Zhuo for providing me with the material."

"Haha, let's just say this first and treat you to dinner another day."

"good!"



Under the cover of night, countless radio signals pass through base stations, transmitting countless signals to all directions.

In this way, complex information quickly began to brew and ferment.

In less than half an hour, an additional video appeared on the school’s official promotional account.

The background of the video is actually a screenshot of a webpage marked with the title of the paper.

But the focus is not on the pure English screenshot. What is really eye-catching are the lines of eye-catching Chinese characters placed in the center of the screenshot.

"Congratulations to me, a freshman in Calibration, for successfully publishing an article in a world-class mathematics journal with the help of senior professors from the School of Mathematics and Statistics!"

In fact, in the opinion of Qu Wenxiang, who is in charge of the school's new media video account, this sentence is too rough.

Because in the previous version, he also used a sliding font, and by the way introduced what problem this paper mainly solves, this will make it less obtrusive.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

But there was no way, that version of the caption was directly rejected by Minister Yang.

Because Minister Yang thinks there are too many words and the key points cannot be highlighted.

Hence the current version.

In fact, Qu Wenxiang was very resistant to releasing this video.

After all, he is the instructor in charge of new media content. Although the official video account has many constraints on content selection due to various concerns, it is not very popular.

But after all, Qu Wenxiang has to deal with students majoring in journalism every day, and he also has a good relationship with several students in the school who are very successful in running video accounts, so he is naturally sensitive to information.

how to say?

This picture, combined with the copywriting and the blessing of the official account, really has the potential to become popular.

It might even explode.

Not to mention that Minister Yang also took the initiative to say that he could spend money on it.

But Qu Wenxiang is very sure that this kind of popularity is not necessarily what the school’s mathematics department wants.

Pre-freshmen, the world's top journals, papers... these keywords are connected together, and it is really difficult for people not to associate the word "study valve" with others.

Qu Wenxiang even wondered if Professor Li Jiangao from the School of Mathematics had offended Minister Yang and specifically asked him to post such a video to put Professor Li on the fire.

Fortunately, he kept an eye on it, and the specific communication process with Minister Yang was all on WeChat.

And he has carefully taken screenshots of all chat records.

At that time, even if you find him, you can get rid of the responsibility.

You can't blame him for being too careful. When the gods above are fighting, you can't bring the fire to this little teacher.

Refuse to take the blame, start with me.



The fact is just as Qu Wenxiang thought.

After he spent the 20,000 yuan that Minister Yang said on WeChat and forwarded it to the students in the group @news agency, the video obviously started to become popular.

Especially the comment section.

Really, if Minister Yang had not suddenly had a fit and called him today, Qu Wenxiang would never have imagined that at 11 or 2 o'clock in the middle of the night, there would be so many people in China who were not sleeping, holding their mobile phones and constantly watching videos.

However, Qu Wenxiang was not only not excited at all, but also felt terrified.

The growing number of comments really made him feel like a reminder.

Especially the comments that have received the most likes and have been pinned to the top by countless re-reviews.

"Hey... what did I see? A world-class top journal published by a freshman? It's an official account! Haha... So you really don't bother to cover it up now, right?"

"When I saw this video, I seemed to hear one or even several doctoral students from the School of Mathematics of Xilin University of Technology sobbing silently."

"Our Chinese talents are really awesome! Elementary school students can publish in domestic core publications, and prospective freshmen can publish in top international journals. You are so awesome, why haven't you come back with a Nobel Prize?"

"Am I right? This is Xilin University of Technology! Another Holy Land school has fallen in my mind."

"Come on, come on, you want to be famous, right? Brother, let me help you. @education官网@团子@中华社@... What do you think?"

But the most disturbing thing was a comment hidden below that Qu Wenxiang happened to accidentally read.

"Which student runs this official account? Do you want to see for yourself what you have written?! This is because our school is not famous enough, right? Tell me, did you receive money from X University specifically to help them? To divert academic Daji’s attention?”

It is no exaggeration to say that after seeing this comment, Qu Wenxiang wanted to die.

What is even more depressing is that there are still many comments that are directly displayed in the review, or have been deleted by the system.

You can imagine what these people said.

The relatively rational evaluations were almost completely covered up by these indignant voices and could not be read at all.

But the scariest thing was that he discovered that many official media accounts had begun to forward his video.

Are the new media operations editors of these official media outlets not off work?

Play this set online 24 hours a day?

Although it was very late, he couldn't help but take a screenshot of the comment area and sent it directly to Yang Lichun.

"Minister Yang, you see the response in the comment section is a bit biased. How about I close the comment first?"

Waited for five minutes, no reply.

Just when Qu Wenxiang was about to close the comment area directly, the reply came again.

"You are confused, Teacher Qu. Doesn't closing comments at this time make us really guilty? Besides, the video has been forwarded. If you don't allow comments here, others can't comment elsewhere? Don't be afraid, you have to trust our School of Mathematics The purity of the teacher."

Qu Wenxiang was stunned.

I didn't bother to reply to the message, so I just turned off my phone and went to sleep.

He finally noticed that someone was going to cause trouble again.

It doesn't matter what you like, he is just a tool anyway, so if the board is really knocked down, there will naturally be someone taller to hold it up!



An hour, really only an hour.

This video by Qu Wenxiang has directly entered the top ten of the short video social popularity list.

As long as you search for keywords this night, Xilin University of Technology, or prospective freshmen, Li Jiangao, top journal papers, or even the School of Mathematics, you will jump directly to the relevant video.

And one thing is true, Qu Wenxiang was right.

Countless creators in the small video industry really don’t need to sleep.

There is explosive material, even if there is a fight between the eyelids, it will take another two hours to drink a bottle of Red Bull.

no way.

The characteristics of the Internet society dictate that this industry must be impetuous. After all, the life cycle of each hot spot generally does not exceed seven days.

The sooner you react, the sooner you can get the biggest wave of traffic.

What’s even more frightening is that these creators who are active on the Internet can be said to have great powers.

Although Qu Wenxiang's copywriting has been extremely streamlined.

The names of the tutors and prospective freshmen were not revealed in the copywriting, nor was it specified in which journal it would be published.

But these two creators found Duke Mathematics Magazine in less than an hour with just one picture. And directly logged into the official website of Duke Mathematics Magazine and downloaded the entire paper.

Some people even directly used ChatGPT to summarize the core ideas of the paper.

Others used the pinyin superscript on the paper and cooperated with the tutor's introduction on the official website of the School of Mathematics and Statistics of Xilin University of Technology to directly identify Li Jiangao.

It’s just that the mysterious student who published the paper has not yet been found.

There was no way, it was late at night, and most of the children in the courtyard were already asleep.

The popularity of short videos has also excited countless public account authors.

There is no other reason. These days, the four words of educational equity are one of the most sensitive nerves in the whole society.

Just as Xu Dajiang expected.

The mentality of netizens is very simple.

What a shitty essay a prospective freshman knows!

Not to mention the countless knowledgeable people who popularize science, how many mathematics professors and PhDs there are in China, and how many articles they publish in top world-class mathematics journals every year.

So the enthusiasm Xu Dajiang hoped for was achieved in just one night.

God knows how many people started to use short videos and articles on various public accounts to educate all readers about how to complain about the school...

After all, Xilin University of Technology is a double first-class university, and it still has this reputation in China.

On this boiling night in China.

Western academic circles have also begun some sporadic discussions.

After all, Duke Mathematics Magazine is also an established world-class mathematics journal.

Suddenly a blockbuster paper is uploaded to a website that provides electronic reading, which naturally triggers a wave of attention.

Not to mention that the paper is really interesting.

What's more coincidental is that the same self-supervision system constructed through group theory has also been published in "Communications of Pure and Applied Mathematics". Moreover, the corresponding author is also a famous professor at Cohen University.

It's just that the former is more theoretical, while the latter is both theory and application.

Many professors who study mathematics and computer science directly download the two papers at the same time and then start reading.

The only good thing is probably that these two papers have not broken the circle yet.

Of course, this is normal.

News from the academic circle should be a little slower.
