There was indeed a politics class on Tuesday, and Qiao Ze also promised Li Jiangao that he would attend this class, so naturally he would not break his promise.
In fact, if it were another person, this class would be impossible to take. After all, fame is sometimes a double-edged sword.
Daniel's Facebook made Qiao Ze very popular on the Chinese Internet, and the feedback was simultaneously reflected in the school, and Qiao Ze also had a large number of fans in the school. Especially the students in this class.
At first, the classmates' impression of Qiao Ze was definitely not that good.
Everyone is not a fool.
The school will not suddenly make the final exams more difficult for no reason.
So all clues point to Qiao Ze.
Just because this guy came to their basic math class, the difficulty of the final exam skyrocketed.
Although the school has worked hard to remedy the situation, it still resulted in the June 2023 massacre.
There were more than 80 students, so basically 21 people failed each professional course.
There is a saying that 21 people is the upper limit of the school's allowable failure rate. If there are more, the professors will be in trouble. In order to avoid so much trouble, the college simply adopted a ranking system and pulled out the bottom 21 students in each subject to sacrifice.
Unfortunately, this is just a theory and no professor has confirmed it.
But things became increasingly different after that.
First, Qiao Ze's paper was published, and the familiar academic committee member and Chen Yiwen also put their names on the paper.
Then the Mathematics College pioneered a series of reforms, which made the children of the Mathematics College very prominent in the school.
Sometimes it even gives many students some small privileges.
It is no exaggeration to say that when waiting in line for food in the cafeteria, sometimes the cooking uncle would know that he was from the Mathematics College and was in the same class as Qiao Ze, so he would shake less when serving food.
In addition, there are Zhang Zhou, Gu Zhengliang, and Su Mucheng at work who take the trouble to promote Qiao Ze's series of deeds to their roommates and classmates every day, which makes people yearn for it even more.
Mu Qiang is the thinking pattern hidden in human nature.
Fortunately, Qiao Ze no longer has to attend classes with other students, so Tuesday's politics class became the best opportunity for everyone to worship the god of learning.
It's like not many people have had the experience of taking classes with their own professors.
But after Daniel affirmed Qiao Ze's achievements, this feeling came out.
The impact is also very special. In the past, when Qiao Ze came to class, at most everyone would look at Qiao Ze twice when he entered the door, but this time on the way to school, classmates took the initiative to talk to him.
"Hello God Qiao, hello academic committee. By the way, God Qiao, can I ask if you will accept Professor Daniel's invitation to become a professor at Princeton?"
It was a girl from Class 2 who plucked up the courage to rush over and ask Qiao Ze. Qiao Ze didn't have much impression, but fortunately he knew Su Mucheng.
So the considerate Su Mucheng said hello first: "Liao Xiaojuan, you came so early today."
Then he took Qiao Ze's hand and squeezed it slightly.
The next moment, Qiao Ze replied with a serious expression: "I won't go for the time being."
"Oh, I got it, thank you Qiao Shen for clarifying my doubts." After saying that, the little girl jumped away.
Qiao Ze, who didn't quite understand what this meant, was left behind.
"Look, Brother Qiao, everyone is still very concerned about you. They are afraid that you will choose to go abroad." Su Mucheng said happily.
"There must be some people who hope that I can go abroad." Qiao Ze commented very pertinently.
This is based on the notion that his presence will certainly make graduation difficult for some.
"They must be people who don't understand you." After a small argument, the two returned to their usual rhythm.
Su Mucheng arrogantly led the taciturn Qiao Ze into the teaching building.
This is because the anchors who entered the campus haven't figured out the situation yet, and they don't know that Qiao Ze's route to class is different from that of ordinary Mathematics College students.
The main reason is that the laboratory where Qiao Ze is located is closest to the east side entrance of the 5th teaching. If you come from the dormitory, you have to go through the main entrance of the teaching building.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be only one classmate who happened to be walking this way to say hello.
This is indeed the case. When Qiao Ze walked into the classroom, everyone would only look at him twice at most on weekdays, but today many people gathered around him.
"Qiao Shen, I heard that your application to become an expert was approved! Isn't this too strong?"
"Brother, when are you going to graduate? I think the school should give you a professor. There is a precedent."
"Hey, Qiao Shen, for example, if you become a professor next year, will you come to teach us again? Then I will take your elective courses, can you just let us pass?"
…
Really, when everyone comes together, even if Qiao Ze has a dull temper, it won't be so embarrassing.
Not to mention that there was Su Mucheng beside him who could help Qiao Ze greet other students, so the back corner of the classroom, which had always been quiet, suddenly became lively.
As usual, Qiao Ze didn't talk that much.
But when Zhang Zhou, Gu Zhengliang and Chen Yiwen saw this situation and ran over to say hello to Qiao Ze, they were finally led to say a few more words.
"The expert status is useful this year."
"I'll graduate from my bachelor's degree probably next year."
"I suggest that the college improve its teaching staff and make graduation more difficult."
Before the honest answer caused even more complaints, the class bell finally rang.
The professors who teach politics and mathematical analysis are both named Zhu, and their temperaments are similar. For example, they are both stubborn and selfless.
But Professor Zhu, who teaches politics, is different from professional course professors in that whether he can pass his class really depends on his usual grades. Because the final exam is really open book.
In the words of Professor Zhu, studying politics is to let everyone understand the righteousness and have a scientific worldview and methodology. After learning thoroughly, the most specific feedback is your daily performance. If you perform well at ordinary times, it means that the purpose of learning politics has been achieved, and there is no need to memorize those rigid principles.
Even if you have to take the postgraduate entrance examination in the future, as long as you understand these principles, it is enough to memorize some key points when the time comes.
Therefore, although this old Professor Zhu is quite serious and strict on weekdays, he is still very prestigious among students.
Whether the school will adopt Qiao Ze's opinion is another matter, but if you are naughty in Professor Lao Zhu's class, you may really have to retake politics.
Another characteristic of Professor Lao Zhu is that he is neither late nor early for class. He always walks into the classroom with the sound of class music playing.
So even if Qiao Ze's last words were outrageous, everyone would still scatter when the bell rang and return to their seats.
Professor Lao Zhu stood on the podium and glanced at the last row of the classroom habitually. When he saw Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng were there, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
"Well, Qiao Ze insisted on coming to class today, which is good and makes me very happy. I hope everyone can learn from Qiao Ze."
The students who had just been shocked by Qiao Ze's words couldn't help but start making noises.
"Professor Zhu, can Qiao Ze be praised for insisting on coming to class? We come to class every day and never skip class, but you have never praised us! It's so unfair."
"Yes, yes, you can praise God Qiao for other things, such as academic performance and mathematical ability. This is really embarrassing."
"Seconded……"
It must be said that one year of getting along with him helped these smart kids understand how to deal with this serious old professor.
Although this kind of behavior of directly making noise without raising hands is a bit against the class record.
But he must use his honorific when speaking, and his questions are reasonable, so he will not offend this old professor who has taught philosophy and politics all his life.
"What, do you think it's wrong for me to praise Qiao Ze and still insist on coming to class? That only shows that your philosophical thinking ability is not enough. You should have learned in junior high school that the world is dynamic and continuous, so we must also Look at the problem from a sports perspective.
So what is the premise for me to praise Qiao Ze today? It's because yesterday Qiao Ze received an invitation from a very qualified and high-status mathematics professor. Others, please ask yourself now, if Professor Daniel had extended the same invitation to you, would you really still choose to take this class today?
Not to mention all of you, maybe half of you are already planning to apply for a visa today, right? So I would like to tell you by the way that many times the praise or criticism you receive is probably not simply because of your behavior, but more likely because of the attitude reflected behind this behavior.
Politics is one of the subjects you study from elementary school to college. I have always emphasized that this course is not for you to memorize by rote, but to learn a scientific worldview and methodology, so that you can understand the thinking logic behind human behavior. Do you understand it now? "
No one made any noise now, and countless eyes began to focus on where Qiao Ze was sitting.
What he gained was Qiao Ze's calm face as usual, and the smiling face of the school committee member next to him.
Most children have mixed feelings inside.
Well, if you really ask yourself, if they have the opportunity to go to Princeton to take teaching positions, they might really put aside the bad politics class.
You have to become a professor and an academician, so who cares about a bad political class?
Looking at it this way, Qiao Shen's layout is indeed very high, at least as high as several floors.
After all, they are too superficial.
"Qiao Ze, you don't have to go to the freshman politics class on Thursday afternoon. I will tell Dean Xu. From now on, as long as you insist on attending this class every Tuesday, it will be fine. By the way, academically, I I definitely can’t give you any help, but if you encounter something you can’t figure out in the future, you can send me an email.”
After saying that, Professor Lao Zhu ignored Qiao Ze's response, withdrew his gaze, and said to a group of children: "Okay, let's go to class now. We talked about the same social structure in the last class. Under the guidance of this kind of thinking, relatively stable psychological characteristics are shown in various behaviors..."
…
Qiao Ze listened very carefully to this class.
How should I put it, although Qiao Ze's expression remained unchanged from beginning to end, for him, the feeling of being praised in public in class was actually very special.
In other words, this is the first time Qiao Ze has been praised in class.
Professor Lao Zhu also accidentally became the first teacher to actively praise Qiao Ze in class.
Yes, although Qiao Ze has already made a name for himself in the world of mathematics. He was invited by the dean of Princeton and a former Fields Medal winner. He has also been recognized by professors from many first-class universities, and his paper has been published on the top of the page. Just like playing...
Even within the school, the dean of the college obeyed his words, and he could meet face-to-face interviews with academicians without falling behind. He easily gained the admiration of his roommates, and even doctoral students were willing to work with him.
but……
Since graduating from elementary school, he has never been publicly praised by any teacher in front of the whole class like today!
I have received a lot of public criticism.
This is indeed quite bizarre.
Coincidentally, Qiao Ze's usually indifferent temperament and accumulated knowledge often cause many misunderstandings to people around him. The most obvious thing is probably that it makes people subconsciously ignore his mental age.
No matter how developed his brain is or how talented he is, Qiao Ze is still just an eighteen-year-old kid now.
He has an extremely clear mind and strong rational control, but it does not mean that he is really like an old man in his seventies or eighties, completely without all kinds of spiritual needs. After all, Student Qiao is not a real machine. All he needs is scientific research results to satisfy all his spiritual needs.
As a result, Professor Lao Zhu probably never expected that his casual words of praise while sighing before class would actually make him the best and most responsible instructor in Qiao Ze in the entire college besides Li Jiangao. .
Well, I can only say that sometimes life’s encounters are so inexplicable.
If Professor Ma, who gave Qiao Ze his first class after he came to Xilin University of Technology, knew about Qiao Ze's psychological activities, he would probably be in a very depressed mood.
What a great opportunity he missed.
It's a pity that no one knows about Qiao Ze's psychological dynamics at this time, not even Su Mucheng has felt it yet.
After all, let alone praise, there have been too many people fawning over Qiao Ze recently. Relatively speaking, where does Professor Lao Zhu’s praise go?
So Su Mucheng really didn't feel anything different about Qiao Ze today.
Finally the bell rang for the end of two classes.
The two packed up their books, and before Qiao Ze's three roommates came over, Qiao Ze suddenly commented: "This Professor Zhu is quite a nice person."
This surprised Su Mucheng.
This was the first time Qiao Ze evaluated a professor at the school.
Whether it's on campus or off campus.
"Yes. Although Professor Zhu usually criticizes people a bit harshly, it is said that he still argued hard and helped several colleges in the science and engineering field to get his course to be open-book exam."
Qiao Ze nodded. In fact, he didn't care whether he took the open-book exam or not.
Xu Dajiang said that he only needed to come to class.
But today he decided that he must take the exam at the end of the semester, because he would have graduated if he didn't take the exam this time.
"Brother Qiao, shall we go to dinner together today?"
While the two were talking, several roommates had already come over, and Qiao Ze nodded.
"good."
