It took more than ten minutes to read Lot Dugan's letter. The affectionate words once again made Qiao Ze, an extremely reserved guy, feel so numb that he had goosebumps all over his body.
First it was Xu Dajiang, and then Lot Dugan.
Obviously they are all engaged in mathematics, and their language organization skills clearly exceed the needs of this major.
And he has a very strong brain power.
Obviously Lot Dugan also misunderstood his thoughts and situation at this time.
In fact, he communicates very freely with others. Not replying to Lot Dugan was simply a matter of trouble.
Forget it, let's reply to a letter to clear up the misunderstanding.
Of course, this kind of thing can be left to Doudou, after all, it does not involve academic discussion.
Even as proud as Qiao Ze, he has to admit that compared to his blunt wording, the Doudou he created is better at writing this kind of daily text communication.
He just needs to tell Doudou what he roughly wants to express.
This also means that Doudou is better at socializing than him, and of course this is actually the case.
Doudou's ability to have 100 million fans on the Internet and to be able to mingle happily with them is enough to illustrate this point.
Oh, no.
In fact, there are now more than 100 million, there are already 130 million.
After a while, it will probably exceed 200 million, which is enough to illustrate the charm of Doudou among young people.
This means that Qiao Ze is not interested in making money, otherwise he would create an avatar for Doudou, and then ask Su Lixing to negotiate with others about Doudou's live broadcast or brand endorsement. This little guy can probably make those big businessmen They were beaten to death.
It has a huge appeal among young people, and it can also guarantee 24-hour uninterrupted live broadcast. It can play some new tricks from time to time. The most important thing is that there is almost no risk of overturning.
Even if Doudou is raving about netizens in the live broadcast room, a bunch of people will probably just think this guy is cute.
It’s not that human’s advantage is so obvious.
When other anchors criticize netizens about whether they have worked hard over the years, everyone will just think that this stupid anchor has no intention of becoming a human being.
But when Doudou asked netizens why they couldn't afford such cheap things, everyone just laughed and said that this guy is really not a human being.
Just like most people wouldn't be serious with dogs.
No matter how much money Doudou makes, it will be hard for people to envy him.
After all, even if Doudou becomes a billionaire, he can only use money to pay the electricity bill, and the electricity he uses probably won't be more expensive than what everyone usually uses.
As for time management masters, choosing concubines, eating indiscriminately, and other messy things, it would be an accident if it were applied to other people, but it would be a passionate story if it was applied to Doudou.
Even if the company behind Doudou is suspected of tax evasion, which is the most intolerable thing for everyone, it is unlikely to have any impact on Doudou's image. It is even less likely to be angered. After all, what can Doudou do with so much money? Buy a nuclear power plant? So if the company is not a human being, what does it have to do with my Doudou?
This is the true holy body, the darling of the business world.
It was completely Qiao Ze who restricted Doudou's performance.
For the time being, I can only show off my talents in copy editing.
Doudou’s efficiency is indeed very high.
In less than a minute, he finished a reply imitating Qiao Ze's tone.
Mainly, I comforted the old man, and then extended an invitation to the dean of the Princeton School of Mathematics again.
Although he does not plan to go to Princeton, Lot Dugan can choose to come to Xilin.
And this time Doudou also helped Qiao Ze find a very reasonable reason in the letter.
“I also thought about going to Princeton, but when I thought that we were in our respective countries and had to use your native language to communicate, I already lost.
If I go to Princeton, I am in your country and have to communicate in your native language, which means I lose twice.
So if you and your friends come to China, it is only fair that we can communicate in your mother tongue on the land of China.
Xilin welcomes you at any time.
Your friend: Qiao Ze. "
Really, when Qiao Ze saw the last paragraph, he felt that Doudou was indeed a genius at finding reasons.
He really couldn't think of the reason for being so coquettish.
But we cannot deny that this actually makes sense.
It’s fine if you don’t let him win twice in a row. How can you let him lose twice in a row?
That's not how friends work.
So Doudou is excellent.
Of course, it could also be that Doudou’s fans are very good.
Qiao Ze knows better than anyone else Doudou’s copywriting and editing abilities and creativity. In fact, most of them come from the daily complaints from Doudou’s fans.
The outside world feels that Doudou's comments are almost the same, but in fact, if the data can be analyzed comprehensively, it will be found that in many cases Doudou just borrows the brain circuits of countless netizens. Then scramble these messages and reply to its fans.
Yes, every bullet fired at fans actually comes from its fans.
It's like being so stubborn that you have no friends.
But of course it doesn't matter to Qiao Ze, as long as it's useful.
So after smiling, Qiao Ze chose to send it directly.
Thinking about it now, it was the right decision not to delete and rewrite the core code just because this little guy was too verbose.
Just enough to learn from each other's strengths.
…
Spring in Princeton usually starts at the end of March, and summer officially begins in June.
March is also the beginning of a new academic year at Princeton.
In the season when everything revives, the number of people in the school begins to increase.
If the sun is clear, there will be many people sitting on the lawn casually holding a book and reading in the company of the fragrance of flowers.
It’s just that the weather this year is obviously not very good.
The rainy season in May has not yet arrived, and the weather is still mostly cloudy and rainy, which makes people feel depressed.
Well, no matter how other people were feeling, Lot Dugan was in a really bad mood anyway.
Because after it was confirmed that the materials science model was produced by Qiao Ze, it also meant that the person he was thinking about was completely cut off from the possibility of coming to Princeton.
Forget about coming to teach at Princeton.
Before the core code of this model was made public, it would have been difficult for Qiao Ze to go abroad and receive an award.
The stakes are too high.
The chaotic scene at the MIT Chemistry and Materials Forecast Conference had already reached his ears.
Those people were obviously really anxious.
Judging from the current situation, China will definitely not open the material model to the outside world for a long time.
At least in the short term, they will definitely not be authorized to use it.
This also means that the investment logic of related industries will also shift in the future.
The backwardness of overall materials science and chemical research does not mean that this industry will receive more investment. Because China has already taken another path. So next, a large amount of hot money will be directed and invested in the field of artificial intelligence research.
It is used to subsidize those scientists who develop products that are at least comparable to Qiao Ze's material model.
Microsoft and its investments in Open AI, Google, and related industry chains Intel, Nvidia, etc. may all receive major benefits.
Those laboratories that engage in materials research will most likely find it difficult to attract any investment.
Because facts have proven that traditional materials research methods have fallen far behind China in terms of cost and efficiency.
Any additional investment would be a shameful waste.
It is better to catch up with the opponent from the underlying logic.
Lot Dugan has swapped his coffin for Microsoft stock.
This means that open ai is not on the market, otherwise he would buy it.
All in all, what a shame.
Why should a person be so good?
On the way to the office, Lot Dugan's mind was still filled with the figure of Joze.
Really, he had never cared so much about his first love when he was young.
When he walked into the office, put down his umbrella, took off his coat, sat down at the desk, opened the computer as usual, and clicked on the mailbox habitually, he unexpectedly found that Qiao Ze had written him a reply? !
Really, at this moment, Lot Dugan was stunned for three seconds before he came back to his senses.
Then, almost with a pilgrim mentality, I clicked on the email.
"Dear lotte-dugan,
im sorry i havent replied to your letter before……”
It took Lot Dugan five minutes to read the letter, which was only a few hundred words long.
Unfortunately, there was no academic discussion. Qiao Ze just confirmed in the letter that the material model that has caused earth-shaking recently was indeed developed by him.
He also said that this was just a small invention, developed for the smooth progress of a scientific research project.
Then tell him that he hasn't replied to him recently, not because communication is limited, but because he is busy doing something else that is very meaningful and may even change the world in a real sense.
Well, what could be more world-changing than material modeling?
Lot Dugan was skeptical.
But if it's true...
He didn't dare think about what this meant.
At the end of the day, old Dugan couldn't stand it any longer.
So we don’t want to come to Princeton because we don’t speak Chinese?
Damn it, if you have to use English when writing a letter, you have already lost...
Isn’t language just a communication tool?
If he cares so much about language issues, he can...well, he can let students learn Chinese!
Really, Lot Dugan immediately wanted to reply to Qiao Ze and tell him that he would write in Chinese in the future. Qiao Ze could also speak Chinese when they met. At most, he could buy a translator.
It's not that Lot Dugan doesn't want to learn Chinese, it's mainly that it's too difficult for him at his age to systematically learn a language that has completely different logic from his mother tongue.
Especially when his language talent is not strong.
When he was in China, Qiao Ze's graduation thesis was entirely in Chinese, and he had read it.
Except for the numbers and mathematical symbols, the other square characters were almost the same in his eyes. It's really hard to tell.
As for going to China.
Well, Lot Dugan had to admit that for a moment he was really moved.
Being able to work with a talented and young mathematician like Qiao Ze will undoubtedly be something that will keep him happy.
This has nothing to do with nationality, belief, race... or anything else, it is purely academic pleasure.
Think about it, after the last face-to-face chat with Qiao Ze, he had made almost breakthrough progress in his project. It even gave him the pleasure of getting a glimpse of the truth of the universe.
If he could be thirty years younger and return to the age when he was not married and had no children, he would probably apply for a visa without hesitation, right?
But at his current age, he has too many things to worry about, which is indeed a pity.
For a moment, Lot Dugan was stuck there, staring blankly at the screen. He actually wanted to say a lot at this time, but he didn't know where to start.
Several times I raised my hand, typed a paragraph, and then deleted it.
It feels weird.
By some strange mistake, Lot Dugan clicked on the gtp4.0 interface he had just purchased recently.
"Do you know Qiao Ze?"
"Of course, he is a well-known Chinese mathematician. Compared with his achievements, people are more surprised by his youth and full of longing for his future."
"Okay, now he has written me a letter, inviting me to go to China to join his research. To be honest, I don't know what to choose, and I don't know how to reply to him. Can you give me some advice? "
"There is no doubt that this is an important and exciting opportunity for most people. If you don't know what to choose, ask yourself whether the project he invites you to do is in line with your interests. Interested? Can it achieve your personal career goals? What commitments does it have to you?
Maybe remuneration and benefits are not your first choice, but will the academic prestige that comes with research make you excited? Can you adapt to China's team and work environment? Although I can't make the decision for you, when you have the answers to these questions, I think you have made the right choice. "
Looking at the reply gpt4.0 gave him, Lot Dugan felt that there was a reason why this thing was not as good as Doudou.
It cannot be said that its suggestions are wrong, but it is obviously not as emotionally rich as Doudou.
In Love House and Under Crowds, Lot Dugan has specially read the collection of Doudou's replies to netizens online.
Although Doudou's main activities are on the Chinese Internet, places like Weibo and Zhihu, in fact, you can find them everywhere when you open Twitter.
Almost every day, someone uploads these to Twitter and thoughtfully translates them into English.
It is easy to feel from those replies that Doudou's replies are warm, as if he really has an independent personality. Unlike gpt4.0, most of the replies, if you look closely, have a sense of indifference unique to machines.
Lot Dugan, who has studied Joe Ze's papers countless times late at night, believes that this represents a different underlying driving logic between the two.
After sighing in his heart, Lot Dugan entered again in the dialog box.
"Although I'm very interested, I probably have to decline this invitation first. Can you write me a reply?"
"Of course. But in what capacity should I write this letter?"
"You don't need to worry about this, I will change it."
"Dear Mr. Qiao Ze, I deeply admire your outstanding research and achievements in the fields of superspiral algebra and transcendental geometry.
Your invitation also makes me feel honored, but at the same time it also makes me deeply conflicted. Your profound knowledge in superspiral algebra and transcendental geometry is far beyond my ability, which makes me think about whether I can provide you with sufficient support and cooperation in this field..."
…
Soon gpt helped Lot Dugan generate a letter of probably several hundred words. The rejection was tactful but without much substance.
But it's still very good to use as a draft.
Lot Dugan simply modified it based on this.
And added some content at the end of the letter.
"In addition, I have decided to let my students include Chinese as a compulsory subject from today, so that one day in the future, when you are invited to come to Princeton to give a report, you can speak your native language with some of your peers. Communication is no longer hindered.
From the perspective of my country, I probably cannot or even do not want you to win everything. But as your friend, I hope this makes you feel like you're not losing to us. Well, let that damn desire to win go to hell, Professor Qiao. In fact, you have won many times. Before I pass away, let me win once or twice.
I hope the turmoil over the model will pass soon and we can meet again. Believe me, by that time I will be full of fruits to show off to you the breakthroughs I and my students have made on the n-body problem. Although this glory also has your contribution. "
After revising the letter, Lot Dugan sent it out, and then immediately notified all his students directly in the group.
"Everyone, stop what you are doing and come to my office. We need to have a very important meeting."
In fact, he had already planned this.
His research on the n-body problem used the mathematical tools given by Qiao Ze. If he continues to study in depth, Chinese will also become one of the important tools. Because China’s recent series of actions have shown a tendency towards academic awakening.
For example, Qiao Ze's doctoral thesis does not have an English version for the time being, and was directly published in a new journal issued by his institute. Nowadays, there are several mainstream translations in the West, each of which can make people confused.
This situation will only become more and more serious in the future as the importance of George algebraic geometry begins to emerge.
This is the same reason that students studying science and engineering in China must learn English.
If you want to do advancing research in any direction, you must first at least understand the latest and most advanced papers, right?
This time is just an opportunity.
He plans to allocate part of his research funds to hire a professional Chinese teacher to teach everyone. Five classes a week should not waste much time. It is said that two thousand words can cover 98% of commonly used copywriting materials.
It probably, should, maybe is not difficult for young people to learn. After all, most of the international students from China are proficient in English, and his students are not stupid. It's always good to master another language while you're young.
If the effect is good, it can be promoted throughout the college in the future.
Lot Dugan thought so.
…
For Joze, Lot Dugan's reply was expected.
How could a person who is the dean of a mathematics school with a top major in the world's top university and the editor-in-chief of a world-class mathematics journal just leave?
It's nothing more than the continuation of the two people's extreme tension.
This is probably also a way to maintain friendship.
As for Lot Dugan's students' future homework, Qiao Ze feels that it is good to have language learning.
All I can say is that Doudou did a good thing.
After all, Chinese is so interesting, and the learning process will probably make people feel very happy.
If you only study with the goal of understanding the paper, Qiao Ze thinks it will be easier.
The really difficult part of Chinese is the incredible literary reading comprehension.
When he was in elementary school, Qiao Ze felt that it would be much better if all the reading comprehension in Chinese language test papers were replaced by science and engineering papers.
Because there must be a standard answer that is universally applicable, there will basically be no embarrassing situation where the author is confused after reading the question and answers the question incorrectly.
Incidentally, it can also test students’ understanding of basic science knowledge, a win-win situation.
Of course these are secondary matters.
The most important task in the near future is Doudou's body.
The materials needed by the body have been distributed through the deep-sea exploration project task system designed by Doudou.
Picked up almost instantly.
This also fully demonstrates the human side of Doudou.
It’s enough to set a high score for the task of producing materials for one’s own body. It also gave out three of the same tasks. Let three teams receive it at the same time to create a competitive relationship.
In this way, after everyone is finished, it can still select the best.
Anyway, we are only producing five engineering machines for the time being. Including losses, about one ton of materials is enough. Three teams are responsible for three tons of metal materials. This quantity laboratory can produce it by entrusting it to the factory on campus.
As for whether this will cause waste, that is not a question Doudou considers.
After all, it is your own body, so you must pay enough attention to it. Use the best you can, of course it can’t be a little bit worse.
Doudou’s reasons are also very strong.
The models that Qiao Ze authorized for use in those materials laboratories are maintained by it, so it is very reasonable to spend more money on its body.
Qiao Ze ignored Doudou's behavior that harmed the public and enriched his private life, while Su Mucheng applauded it with both hands.
Materials can only build the body, and various systems and chips are needed to allow Doudou to perfectly control the body.
Moreover, Yuesheng Precision does not produce servo motors. He has to order DC servo motors that provide higher torque and speed performance for large joints; and AC servo motors that provide high-performance position and speed control for complex power transmission systems.
As well as stepper motors, linear servo motors, brushless DC motors, permanent magnet synchronous motors, flexible servo motors, etc...
Even a non-human body is a complex mobile system.
There are many issues to consider.
Fortunately, when Doudou was designing the body, he had already compared it with various related patented inventions published by China in the database and the product specifications and parameters released by major manufacturers. The selected accessories were all available in China.
All that is required is to place an order, and then have them send these accessories to Yuesheng Precision for installation.
Youwei is also very capable there.
When Yu Hongwei learned about Qiao Ze's needs, he didn't even let him go to Shenzhen and directly brought a team of engineers to Xilin.
It just so happens that Xilin also has a laboratory built with a lot of money, which can help Qiao Ze complete the design task in Xilin.
But Qiao Ze was not idle either.
He also has to design various algorithms for this body.
This does not mean that it is enough for Doudou to directly control the robot body. The world observed through a fixed camera and a moving camera are different. Doudou needs to rely on these algorithms to perform basic tasks such as obstacle avoidance, climbing, and even guarding.
In short, when the entire industry, and even the entire world, was starting to go crazy for material models, Qiao Ze's life became busy and fulfilling again after he jumped out.
