Qiao Ze certainly wouldn't know that because of his small suggestion, a poor freshman from the materials science departnt was being bullied by his roommate in various ways.
After all, the joys and sorrows of people are truly disconnected.
Just like how Xu Xiaotian had his rights to be the "dad" in the dorm stripped away rcilessly.
anwhile, in dorm room 408, the three roommates couldn't wait to offer themselves up to be Qiao Ze's sons.
Actually, many tis when people feel too embarrassed to do sothing, it's simply because they lack an opportunity to get over the ntal hurdle.
Or maybe it's because there's no leader to help everyone let go of that hurdle.
Once soone leads the way in shedding their sha, under the influence of the bandwagon effect, others can start to do the sa.
For Zhang Zhou and Gu Zhengliang, the opportunity was the video call that Su Mucheng sent to Qiao Ze.
...
"Qiao, did you see the school BBS? It's hilarious!"
When Su Mucheng's vibrant voice filled the dorm room, the previously solemn atmosphere was swept away in an instant.
But no one spoke loudly, afraid to disturb Qiao Ze chatting with Su Mucheng.
"Mhm," Qiao Ze responded casually.
He obviously wouldn't check the BBS, but he had already learned about the news from Chen Yiwen.
"I wonder who spread this thing."
"Chen Yiwen."
"Ha, I guessed it was him. It must have been that guy Zhang Zhou who told him."
"Mhm."
"Hey, by the way, did you get a reply to that email you sent to the expert group? It's been a day already."
"No."
"How could they do this? Not even a reply in one day? At least give an answer, whether it's a yes or a no. Qiao, I think you should nudge them a bit. Later, I'll go find and download so papers from that math group and show them to you tomorrow. After you've read them, you can pick the area you're good at and engage them in an academic discussion to see if they dare to ignore you."
"There's no need."
"How can that be okay? I'm telling you, Qiao, you're just too nice and easy-going, you know? Last ti the Optoelectronics Institute approached you, you agreed right away. Although this is one of your strengths, sotis you're too agreeable, and people don't take you seriously."
...
This statent from Su Mucheng made the three people in the dorm exchange knowing glances silently.
This woman...
She actually said Qiao Ze is too easy-going?
Honestly, Zhang Zhou wanted to record this statent from Su Mucheng and send it to Professor Zhao Guangyao of their school, just to hear his thoughts.
Pfft.
Shaless!
...
"Dou Dou can handle this," Qiao Ze was forced to explain.
Dou Dou was the smart assistant for academic papers that Qiao Ze developed, which wasn't its original na, but was changed according to Su Mucheng's preference.
When it ca to naming, Qiao Ze was never the type to overthink.
"Oh, I see, I almost forgot about Dou Dou. Speaking of which, I haven't been to the lab for three days, and I kind of miss Dou Dou. Qiao, could you create a feature for to chat remotely with Dou Dou?"
"Sure."
"Thanks, Qiao. I won't keep you from sleeping then, see you tomorrow."
"By the way, the school is offering a dinner tomorrow night, let's go together."
"Huh? Sure, thanks for thinking of for a big al, Qiao."
"Mhm, good night."
"Good night!"
...
When Qiao Ze hung up the video call, Zhang Zhou glanced at Gu Zhengliang and suddenly said, "Ah, God Qiao, you hung up too soon, Gu hasn't had a chance to chat with his 'mom'."
Zhang Zhou wasn't really insulting anyone.
Because Gu Zhengliang had himself said on the day he prepared to leave school for the holidays that as long as Qiao Ze could bring him success just once, he'd address the student council representative as "Mom."
Of course, the atmosphere that day was different from today.
After all, the train tickets were already bought, and they were facing a two-month separation; no one cared about the nonsense he blurted out.
But today was the beginning of the sester, and such teasing made it a bit hard for Gu to save face, so he retorted angrily, "You dog, Zhang Zhou, how co I don't see you calling 'Dad' first?"
"Oh, 'Dad', you hung up a bit early, Gu still wanted to chat with his mom for a bit," Zhang Zhou said unabashedly.
Chen Yiwen was shocked.
He could never have imagined that Zhang Zhou could shalessly lick boots to such a degree.
We're all university students!
Qiao Ze, who had just put down his phone, looked at the two of them helplessly.
He certainly rembered that sumrti joke and also recalled that promise.
After pondering for a mont, Qiao Ze said, "This sester you guys should study linear algebra well, but don't focus mainly on the textbook problems like matrix and determinant calculations, properties, and operations. Instead, understand and master the series of fundantal concepts in linear algebra, such as vector spaces, dual spaces, Hilbert spaces, and so on, as well as those operators.
I'll recomnd so videos for you to learn from, and I'll assign extra howork. Once you've got these concepts down, I'll design a project specifically for you, then find a Ph.D. student to guide you through it, and publishing in a Tier 1 journal shouldn't be a problem."
As soon as Qiao Ze finished speaking, Zhang Zhou stood up at lightning speed, shalessly saying, "Dad, send the video links right away, I can't wait!"
Gu Zhengliang also imdiately joined in, "Exactly, Dad, I want to start studying right away, too."
Qiao Ze ignored their antics, turned on his computer, and said to himself, "I'll send you the video links. There are three lecture series; if you have any questions, you can refer to them, and if there's still sothing you don't understand, you can ask . But one thing, if you don't et the minimum requirents, you won't be able to do the project."
