"Damn it!"
Ding Yue rembered it.
Inspection teams from Qinghua University and Yancheng University were both visiting Mist City Arts and Science University today, but he had overslept till noon due to a lively celebration the night before.
"Secretary Wen, did the inspection teams from Qinghua University and Yancheng University all arrive?"
As Ding Yue was getting ready to go out, he turned to ask his secretary, Wen Ruohan.
"Yes, they arrived around ten this morning on the sa flight. I organized the university’s vehicles to fetch them, and have had them settled."
Wen Ruohan nodded in affirmation as she responded.
She hadn’t forgotten about the event during the celebratory dinner last night. Anticipating that Principal Ding might overdrink, Wen Ruohan barely drank at all and simply enjoyed the al.
"They’re already settled?" Ding Yue looked at Wen Ruohan with surprise.
"Yes, Principal Ding. I’ve instructed the logistics and dormitory departnt to arrange accommodations for the team mbers of the investigations from Qinghua University and Yancheng University. I also explained your situation to the team leaders."
Wen Ruohan explained in detail.
"Phew, that’s a relief, really." Hearing Wen Ruohan’s words, Ding Yue was able to relax.
He had been worried that his late wake-up due to overdrinking had delayed managent of the inspection teams. But it seed that the Secretary, Wen Ruohan had handled it aptly.
However, he wondered if it would be impolite for him not to pick up the inspection teams personally at the airport.
Ding Yue gave it so thought. Wen Ruohan had explained his situation, so they should be understanding, right?
"We’ll et with the inspection teams later. Following the order of arrival, we’ll see the inspection team from the Departnt of chanical Engineering of Qinghua University first."
Ding Yue got to the door, put on his shoes, and said to Wen Ruohan at the sa ti.
"Sure, Principal Ding!"
Wen Ruohan excitedly approached Principal Ding, asking, "Should we prepare anything?"
"Of course. Call Luo Peng, Su Beilin, Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei, and Yang Jie to my office."
Ding Yue thought that since the inspection team from the Departnt of chanical Engineering of Qinghua University was here, they could et the ace students of their Departnt of chanical Engineering at Mist City Arts and Science University.
As well as Luo Peng and Su Beilin, two Qinghua University graduates.
"Okay!"
Wen Ruohan quickly took out her phone and started contacting student Tong Yihang as well as teacher Luo Peng.
Luo Peng and Su Beilin had already beco teachers in the Departnt of chanical Engineering at Mist City Arts and Science University. Additionally, with Tong Yihang and others, they ford the lithography machine experintal project team at Mist City Arts and Science University, responsible for the precision chanical processing area of the lithography machine.
However, due to the urgency of so projects, the lithography machine experintal project was temporarily not progressing much. Instead, they had switched to assist Ding Yue’s sister in the graphene chanical stripping preparation machine project.
After contacting Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei, Wen Ruohan also contacted teacher Luo Peng and Su Beilin.
She directed them to co to Principal Ding’s office later.
Then, Wen Ruohan contacted the team leader of the Qinghua University Departnt of chanical Engineering inspection team, the renowned Professor Liu Mingjiang.
"Professor Liu, we will be over to et you soon." Wen Ruohan sent a text ssage to Professor Liu Mingjiang.
Afterwards, Wen Ruohan also sent a text ssage to the team leader of the Yancheng University inspection team, Professor Xie Changhe, explaining that Principal Ding would be eting the Qinghua University inspection team first.
Xie Changhe was understanding of this, as Principal Zhu had previously inford him that their visit to Mist City Arts and Science University was likely to coincide with that of Qinghua University. While at the National College Education Innovation Exchange Conference, it was Professor Sun from Qinghua University who had first proposed sending an inspection team to Mist City Arts and Science University.
Therefore, Xie Changhe understood that Principal Ding was eting the inspection teams of both universities in order of their proposals.
Xie Changhe wasn’t in a hurry, he was touring the campus of Mist City Arts and Science University with his students. He had heard that the Book Ship Library was quite famous, so he planned to visit.
"Principal Ding, I have already contacted Professor Liu Mingjiang and the Yancheng University inspection team. I’ve also explained the situation to them."
Wen Ruohan briefed Principal Ding on her contacts.
"Good!"
Ding Yue put on his shoes and left the apartnt. After getting downstairs, he headed over to the Elegant Garden Apartnt building.
Because Wen Ruohan had told him that the inspection teams from Qinghua University and Yancheng University were both staying in the Elegant Garden Apartnts, specifically in building no. 2.
In a room in the Elegant Garden Apartnt Building no. 2, Ding Yue t with Professor Liu Mingjiang of the Qinghua University Departnt of chanical Engineering.
A big-na figure!
A professor who could beco the head of Qinghua University’s Departnt of chanical Engineering was a high-profile figure not just nationally, but also globally.
Professor Liu Mingjiang, who had devoted much of his life to chanical engineering research, joined the Qinghua University Departnt of chanical Engineering as the departnt head at the turn of the 21st century. His leadership stimulated the rapid developnt of the departnt, making it renowned worldwide.
Having such a distinguished person visit Mist City Arts and Science University made Ding Yue feel a sense of honor.
"Professor Liu, welco, welco. My sincere apologies for not eting you at the airport. I had a scheduling oversight."
Ding Yue warmly greeted Liu Mingjiang after seeing him, and expressed regret for not having been able to et them at the airport.
"Principal Ding, you are too polite. Secretary Wen has already told that your school held a celebration banquet last night. This is a good thing. Drinking a bit too much at the banquet is inevitable. I understand."
After knowing the reason why Principal Ding couldn’t et them at the airport, Liu Mingjiang showed his understanding.
After all, it was a celebration banquet for the Feiyue Animation Studio of Mist City Arts and Science University. The box office success of over two billions is indeed worth celebrating.
"Thank you for your understanding, Professor Liu," Ding Yue said with a smile.
"Principal Ding looks quite well now. Shall we start our inspection and exchange activities?"
The thing Liu Mingjiang wanted to know the most during his visit was whether the rumors about Mist City Arts and Science University’s research in the field of photolithography precision machinery were true and if they were, to what extent?
"Sure, everything is arranged. Professor Liu, let’s go to the conference room in the Administration Building for an initial eting?"
Ding Yue nodded imdiately and said with a smile.
"Okay." Professor Liu Mingjiang also nodded, then turned to a young man next to him and said, "Xiao Wang, go and tell everyone to get ready."
"Okay, Director Liu." Xiao Wang then hurried to the other apartnts to notify the other mbers of the Qinghua University inspection team.
Liu Mingjiang brought the best faculty and student team from the chanical Engineering Departnt of Qinghua University. The purpose of this visit was to exchange ideas and learn from each other. After eting, they naturally needed to have an initial eting. In the following days, they would delve deeper into what they wanted to investigate.
When Liu Mingjiang had gathered all the mbers of his inspection team, he and Ding Yue headed towards the Administration Building of Mist City Arts and Science University.
At this ti, in the Administration Building, in Ding Yue’s office.
Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei, Yang Jie, Luo Peng, Su Beilin, and Ding Xiaoyou were all present.
Ding Xiaoyou was there just to join in the fun.
To be precise, it wasn’t about joining the fun as she was also involved in the photolithography experint project, being responsible for the chemical technology aspect.
"Big White."
As soon as Luo Peng entered Principal Ding’s office, he started interacting with the robot Big White, "Can you play chess?"
"Play chess?"
Big White responded to Luo Peng, "What is chess?"
"Professor Luo Peng, many things in Big White’s AI program require learning. Obviously, Big White doesn’t know what chess is," Tong Yihang explained with a smile when he saw Luo Peng interacting with Big White.
"How does Big White learn?" Luo Peng asked with confusion, and then said to Big White, "Big White, learn the knowledge of chess and then play a ga of chess with ."
Big White made no response.
Because when it cos to command type instructions, Big White only listens to Ding Yue and Wen Ruohan.
Ding Yue was the first voice command operator, and Wen Ruohan was the second. Ding Yue had absolute authority over Big White, while Wen Ruohan had partial authority.
"Professor Luo, Big White won’t listen to your instructions," Tong Yihang shrugged his shoulders and quickly explained to Luo Peng.
"Oh?"
Luo Peng was not very familiar with the robot, Big White, which is leaning towards artificial intelligence.
"Big White now only executes the instructions of Principal Ding and Secretary Wen. It only interacts within its known range with us. Our instructions are of no use to Big White," said Tong Yihang, the creator of Big White, who had a better understanding of Big White’s humanoid intelligence program.
"I see," Luo Peng nodded thoughtfully.
"Peng, who is leading the inspection team from our chanical Engineering Departnt of Qinghua University?" Su Beilin asked Luo Peng with a smile.
Since both Luo Peng and Su Beilin were graduates from the chanical Engineering Departnt of Qinghua University, they felt very close to the inspection team from there. And surely, they knew the professor who was leading the team.
"Who do you think it is?" Luo Peng asked in return.
"I guess it could be Professor Zhang Jiansen," guessed Su Beilin.
"I think it might be Director Liu," Luo Peng laughed and shook his head.
"Director Liu personally leading the team?" Su Beilin found it hard to believe.
"How about a bet, dinner?" Luo Peng laughed and looked at Su Beilin.
"Okay, dinner!"
After thinking for two seconds, Su Beilin agreed.
He really didn’t believe that Director Liu would personally lead the team. Would such a haughty man like Director Liu co to inspect a private university?
It was already good enough that Director Liu agreed. According to Su Beilin’s understanding of Director Liu, he might not have agreed to inspect the Mist City Arts and Science University at first. Maybe it was Principal Sun who did a lot of work, and finally persuaded Director Liu.
"Let’s wait and see." Luo Peng was just guessing. Even if he lost, it wouldn’t matter much. He and Su Beilin often played like this. Sotis he won, sotis he lost.
After a while,
The footsteps outside the office corridor could be heard.
