Chapter 89 Injustice! It's all a misunderstanding.
Lu Ming raised his intelligence attribute to 13 points and entered the super talent stage. With the addition of the 15% all-attribute bonus from the title, the pressure on his studies was greatly reduced.
This is why he was finally able to find the time to complete as many side quests as possible.
Regardless of the risks and costs of this system, the attribute enhancement effect is real.
As May approaches, it's time for the spring doctoral interview and assessment phase at Jiangsu University of Science and Technology.
Lu Ming finished the semi-finals of the Qiu Certification Competition at Jiangda University in the morning, and when he returned to the Institute of Intelligent Technology in the afternoon, he heard that the Yabin Intelligent Textile Center project had been accepted.
This project is not small.
Besides Director Zhu Weiping, two associate professors were also involved. Since it wasn't funded by the state, the remaining funds could be distributed internally.
Zhu Weiping took more than one million yuan, two associate professors took several hundred thousand yuan, more than a dozen doctoral students and graduate students divided the remaining money, and even the undergraduate interns who participated in the project received overtime pay.
Everyone received their money and was happy.
It is said that Zhu Weiping also plans to hold a celebration banquet, which all the teachers and students in the institute will attend, and he will pay for it.
Upon hearing the news, Lu Ming and his supervisor Lin Xiaowei didn't take it seriously, but Yang Xuan, a doctoral student in the group, was not happy and felt that Zhu Weiping was showing off.
While she was discussing this matter with two female graduate students, Xie Fengling, the associate professor from the next lab, the legendary academic enchantress, came over.
There are some things that everyone knows.
To be realistic, Xie Fengling also faces the pressure of either being promoted or leaving. If she can't handle her thesis or secure projects, she has no choice but to ask others for help.
We can't let the school kick us out!
A few years ago, Wuhan University, or that other 985 university, changed 90% of its associate professors and teaching assistants in five years.
This kind of pressure is astonishing.
Jiangsu University of Science and Technology is slightly better; associate professors there need to secure at least 600,000 yuan worth of projects annually.
The teaching assistant position has an annual quota of 300,000, but if the quota is met for three out of the five-year contract, the contract can be renewed.
Among the top 985 science and engineering universities, Jiangsu University of Science and Technology is truly humane, mainly because of its very high percentage of students from Jiangsu University of Science and Technology.
More than half of the professors, associate professors, and teaching assistants in the entire university were trained by Jiangsu University of Science and Technology itself.
There were many academicians in the early days, so the foundation was solid.
Xie Fengling pursued her doctoral degree at the same university, then stayed on as a teaching assistant, and gradually rose through the ranks to become an associate professor by leveraging her connections.
She was only average-looking, but had a great figure and was very good at socializing, often trying to get close to Lin Xiaowei in her lab.
Seeing that Lu Ming was in the lab, this academic enchantress asked with a smile, "Lu, your Qiu competition results must be pretty good, right?"
"Not bad, I should be able to make it to the finals!" Lu Ming said modestly.
"Professor Lin, I really envy you having a student like Lu Ming. He's smart, capable, handsome, and can even help his advisor secure projects!"
Xie Fengling was genuinely envious, even a little jealous.
If she had such capable students, would she need to curry favor with Zhu Weiping and other professors?
"You're here for the celebration banquet, right?" Lin Xiaowei's speaking style was very direct; she basically didn't waste any time.
"Yes, Director Zhu made a special trip for me to invite you and your students to the celebration banquet. After all, this is a great event for the entire institute!"
Xie Fengling had a big smile on her face.
"Since everyone else is going, we'll definitely go too!" Lin Xiaowei wasn't bad at socializing; she just disdained wasting time on social interactions.
Anyway, we'll have to eat dinner eventually, so we'll just go over there, eat, and then leave!
She doesn't ask anyone for anything!
Even without Lu Ming, her star pupil, helping her, she never asked for help. From MIT to SUSTech to Jiangsu University of Science and Technology, she relied on herself to get to where she is today.
Now there's even less need to ask for help.
"Okay, since you've agreed, let's go to the Jiangbin International Hotel together tonight." Xie Fengling smiled warmly, as if she and Lin Xiaowei were best friends.
After she left the lab, Yang Xuan, the female doctoral student, sarcastically remarked with dissatisfaction, "Like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken!"
Whether it was Yang Xuan, Lin Xiaowei, or even Hu Jinyu, an undergraduate who was interning in the team, they all knew that Xie Fengling had always wanted to poach Lu Ming.
He's been coming over very frequently lately, and sometimes he even gives Lu Ming a few pointers.
Fortunately, the team was aware of the situation.
Mr. Lu is only interested in female chairpersons with assets of tens of billions, probably because he has a stronger desire to conquer them and finds it more exciting!
It's a complete misunderstanding!
Lu Ming knew what everyone was thinking, but he couldn't defend himself because, on the surface, he did seem to only play ball with female chairpersons.
When evening came, without changing their clothes, they took off their lab coats and went to the nearby Jiangbin International Hotel together.
This hotel is actually owned by Jiangtai Group. It was built in the Jiangbin New Area as part of the provincial and municipal government's requirements to provide catering and hospitality services, in order to support the Jiangbin New Area's investment promotion efforts.
Later, the investment shrank, and they only built a four-star hotel, but the food and beverages were indeed very distinctive and of a very high standard.
After entering the banquet hall on the second floor of the hotel, Lu Ming and Lin Xiaowei, guided by several of Professor Zhu Weiping's students, entered the small hall on the east side.
Eight tables were set up here, filled with teachers and students from the Institute of Intelligence Science.
"Professor Lin, Lu Ming, seats have been reserved for you!" Xie Fengling stood up from a corner of the small hall.
She is an associate professor with a small research team consisting of only two graduate students. They usually do subcontracted research for Zhu Weiping.
The three teachers and students occupied a large round table in the corner, and the remaining seats were just enough for Lu Ming's group of eight to sit down.
However, when it came time to sit down, Lin Xiaowei was unwilling to sit with Xie Fengling, this academic enchantress. The students, being of lower status, also dared not sit next to Xie Fengling, the associate professor.
In the end, Lu Ming had no choice but to sit there.
He is different.
A super influencer with tens of millions of followers!
In the past few months, when school leaders entertained guests from enterprises and institutions, they often invited Lu Ming to accompany them and sit at the same table with the leaders.
Especially when female CEOs or vice chairpersons of companies lead the negotiations, the results are fantastic!
Any project is easily negotiated!
Since it was a celebration banquet, before everyone officially started eating, Director Zhu Weiping had to give a speech first, thanking all his colleagues in the institute. Then he suddenly said, "Actually, all the teachers and students in our institute know in their hearts that we were able to secure this provincial key project mainly because of connections, but not because of my connections. I really can't show my face."
The teachers and students burst into laughter, and then all looked at Lu Ming.
"So, first of all, we must pay tribute to all our teachers and students; everyone has worked hard. But we must also pay tribute to our student Lu Ming, and to our most handsome teacher at Jiangsu University of Science and Technology, Professor Lu, who secured the project just by showing his face!"
Zhu Weiping is now really trying to curry favor with Lu Ming because he has found out very clearly that Yabin Group's AI investment scale will be very large.
In addition to automated production and process control, AI should be applied to design, warehousing, and distribution to significantly reduce labor costs.
Zhu Weiping has already done half of it, so he definitely doesn't want to give up. Now it just depends on whether Lu Ming will nod his head and give him, the director, some face.
Although the reason is unknown, the female chairman of Yabin Group, who is worth tens of billions, is a die-hard fan and simp of "Lu Daqi"!
It feels crazy, it's not scientific at all!
After hearing Director Zhu Weiping's humorous speech, everyone laughed out loud and, to show their respect, stood up and raised their glasses.
Lu Ming, Lin Xiaowei, and the others had no choice but to stand up and raise their champagne glasses to toast each other.
After finishing the drink, we sat down again.
Then the banquet officially began.
Because he was participating in the provincial semi-finals of the Qiu competition, Lu Ming didn't eat much at noon, just a few bites. Now he was really hungry, so he picked up a fried spring roll for himself.
result.
Before he could even put it in his mouth, someone reached out and touched the inside of his thigh, hooking the marble with their fingertip.
握愺.
She truly lives up to her reputation as an academic enchantress!
Although slightly surprised, Lu Ming continued eating without showing any emotion, letting Xie Fengling, the beautiful associate professor, do as she pleased.
If all goes well, the side quest (21) of resisting the female professor's temptation can finally be completed.
