Chapter 234 Class, Interview

In a classroom at Beijing University.

This classroom is already full of students, including the aisles.

Nothing else, because this class is Professor Lin's class.

As a star-like scientist, Lin Xiao's classes naturally attract a lot of students.

Although he teaches number theory to sophomores, mathematics students, whether freshmen, juniors or seniors, will come to listen to his class, and even graduate students will come.

Especially those first-year students, although they have not officially started studying number theory, they all bought number theory textbooks just to preview before taking Lin Xiao's class.

As students of Shangjing University, and also students of the mathematics department known as the first department of Shangjing University, they can still pass the test well.

Of course, most of them went for Lin Xiao's reputation.

Soon, Lin Xiao appeared at the door of the classroom.

He probably got good news from Luo Ming just now, so he walked into the classroom with a smile on his face. After seeing so many people inside, he shook his head with a smile.

"You all told me not to come with so many people. The classroom is packed with you."

There were so many people every time, which made him a little helpless. In a normal class, there would only be more than forty people in a class. However, the situation in front of him was not good. There were probably more than a hundred people, which made Lin Xiao very suspicious of the school. The classroom was assigned to him because this situation was anticipated.

After hearing what he said, the students below all laughed, and then some students shouted:

"Of course you can't miss Lin Shen's class!"

"Yep!"

"Lin Shen, let's change to a larger classroom in the future!"

Of course, in addition to these normal things, there are also some abnormal ones.

"Lin Shen, you are so handsome!"

"Lin Shen, I declare love!"

"Lin Shen..."

…

After all, Lin Xiao is still young, only 21 years old at most, not much different in age from these students, so he usually talks more casually.

Hearing the students shouting more and more outrageously, Lin Xiao shook his head. He had thought about stopping them in the previous classes, but then he was too lazy to say more.

Just at this time, the class bell rang, and then he said: "Okay, get ready for class."

As Lin Xiao announced that class was in session, the students below immediately became quiet.

They didn't want to miss a minute of Lin Shen's class, because they all found that Lin Xiao's class was also very good.

Lin Xiao has always been very serious about his courses, so when preparing lessons, he always thinks carefully about how to make students understand.

Of course, understanding is secondary. The most important thing is how to mobilize students' interest in learning.

Only if students are willing to learn can they improve in mathematics.

Therefore, his method of preparing lessons has always started with how to interest students.

As for how to make students interested, this is a very profound knowledge.

In this regard, Lin Xiao could only rely on his own feelings, but at least after these few classes, the results were pretty good.

Opening the PPT, Lin Xiao said: "In this class, we will talk about Fermat's Little Theorem."

The PPT has entered the first page, which introduces what Fermat's Little Theorem is.

Lin Xiao does not reject the use of PPT. Through PPT, he can introduce what he wants to say to the students.

Then, he talked about the birth of Fermat's Little Theorem and the process of its proof from the history of mathematics.

History is a story. People who study history probably like their major more than people who study other subjects.

After all, everyone loves to hear stories, and this is especially true for students.

"Fermat's Little Theorem is still a little less famous than Fermat's Last Theorem. Of course, we will also talk about Fermat's Last Theorem in the future. At that time, I will talk to you about its prover, Andrew Wiles. What kind of person he is.”

Lin Xiao's words aroused the curiosity of the students. Andrew Wiles is also a big figure in the mathematics world, and it is obviously very interesting for young people like them to learn about these big guys.

Of course, they couldn't help but feel happy in their hearts. This is the benefit of the teacher who lectures is also a big shot. Because the teacher is a big shot, he will naturally have more connections, so by the way, they will be able to learn more!

Seeing that the students below were looking forward to it, Lin Xiao smiled and then started his class today.

"Fermat's Little Theorem naturally comes from Fermat, that is, Pierre de Fermat, known as the king of amateur mathematicians. He wrote it in a letter sent to his friend on October 18, 1640. In this letter, the first statement of this theorem was made.”

"Well, we can find that when these mathematicians encounter a problem or make a new discovery, they like to share it with their friends, so I hope that you all will also have this habit, and you will not encounter any When you have questions or interesting discoveries, you must learn to take the initiative to ask and share them.”

The students nodded thoughtfully, while Lin Xiao smiled and continued to tell the next story.

These stories were all prepared when he was preparing for classes, and he also specifically consulted papers on the history of mathematics.

There are quite a lot of scholars studying the history of mathematics in the mathematics community, especially the history of mathematics related to these famous theorems. There are even more people studying the history of mathematics. At every mathematician conference, the conference will also specially invite relevant scholars to share the history of mathematics. research on aspects.

Learning from history is not only meaningful for politics, but also for science.

From the birth of the problem to the development of the problem and then to the solution of the problem, people can not only better understand the problem, but also get inspiration from it.

This is also the profound reason why Lin Xiao starts his course with stories from the history of mathematics, not only to interest students.

In this way, his course gradually entered the atmosphere, and the students were immersed in it. Under Lin Xiao's guidance, they also entered a state of immersive learning, ignoring their surroundings and the passage of time.

It wasn't until the recess bell rang that the students present came back to their senses and realized that they all felt a little irritable after class.

Why are you leaving get out of class?

So someone shouted: "Lin Shen, please keep going! Don't let the get out of class end!"

"Keep talking! get out of class won't end!"

"We're going to class!"

The students all shouted.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao was helpless and said: "Some students still need to go to the toilet, so they still need to rest."

He glanced at one of the students, looked at the mineral water bottle next to him that was about to bottom out, and the brows that frowned from time to time. Lin Xiao estimated that he could no longer hold his nerve.

What surprised him was that the student took the initiative and shouted: "We can bear it!"

"Yes! I can bear it!"

Other students also shouted.

Lin Xiao: "..."

Glancing at the student, he shrugged.

If you want to challenge the limits of your bladder, then challenge it.

After all, holding this kind of thing in class is something you basically have to experience when you are a student.

He smiled and said, "Okay, let's continue."

The class continued, and his class was still very interesting, making it easy for the students below to get addicted to it.

Until the end of the class, he left seven exercises.

Five of the exercises are related to Fermat's Little Theorem, and the difficulty increases step by step, allowing students to start with simple questions and gradually arouse their interest through continuous solving. As for the other two questions, they are more interesting to them. Reviews of lessons taught in the past allowed his students to keep a refresher on the past.

"Okay, these questions will be handed in by the class representative on Sunday this week, and I will check them then."

"The old rule is, you must write it yourself. If you encounter something you don't know, don't copy it. Ask it. As I just said, if you don't know the question, ask others. In addition, if you can think of it when solving the problem, If you have an ingenious solution and you are the only one in the class, I will also give you a credit."

"Of course, it's limited to our 2020 Mathematics Class 1 students. If more than a hundred of you submit them to me, I won't have time to check."

Lin Xiao said with a smile, and the students who came over to attend class immediately showed regretful expressions.

However, their classmates in Class 1 of the Mathematics Department immediately became happy and gave proud expressions to other people who came to attend class.

We are Professor Lin’s students!

Our homework can be seen by Professor Lin!

Fortunately, now that they are sophomores, they can still know the appearance of their classmates. Otherwise, looking at so many people, they might not even know who their classmates are.

"Okay, get out of class is over."

As soon as Lin Xiao said it, he saw the student who had probably been holding it back and rushed out of the classroom.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

Can't you bear it?

Shaking his head, he left the classroom and returned to his office.

His office is a single-person office, and it is very simple inside. Apart from a computer and some files from the school, there is basically nothing.

Then he logged into arxiv and checked to see if there were any important papers in mathematics and physics recently.

Although he has been studying things related to lithography machines recently, he has certainly not stopped paying attention to the theoretical community. He teaches these students from time to time, which reminds him that he is still a mathematician.

At this time, his cell phone rang.

After the call was connected, the other person said: "Mr. Lin, we have found the talent you need. Do you want me to send the information to you now?"

"OK."

Lin Xiao responded.

He asked Luo Ming to establish a Qizhi company for himself to manage his future patented technologies.

He had previously applied for personal patents on his polishing slurry materials and silicon wafer purification process, and these patents will be handed over to Qizhi Company for management.

Of course, if you have a company, you need to hire people to manage the company, so he hired a headhunting company to help him find talents in this field.

Soon, he received the talent information sent by the other party, screened it, and finally selected one of the women named Ning Yue. She graduated with an MBA from Harvard University. She had previously specialized in patent management abroad, but because of her mother When he fell ill, he gave up his job abroad with an annual salary of 150,000 US dollars and chose to return to China to take care of his mother. At the same time, he began to look for a new job.

Lin Xiao admired this kind of person who was more family-oriented. Coupled with her work experience, he chose her.

Of course, you have to meet first before that, which is also an interview.

Maybe it’s not a good fit in the end, so you can prepare to meet other people.

Soon after getting in touch, they decided to meet in a coffee shop outside Beijing University.

Lin Xiao packed up her things, continued to wait in the office, and then went to the coffee shop.

There was already a woman waiting at the door of the coffee shop.

Wearing a white shirt, trousers and high heels, and a simple single ponytail, she looks very businesslike.

Lin Xiao took a look and saw that he looked very similar to the photo, so he called out: "Is it Ms. Ning?"

The woman turned her head and looked at Lin Xiao, then said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Ning Yue."

Lin Xiao nodded and said: "Go in first."

Entering the coffee shop, the two found a seat and sat down. After ordering a cup of coffee, they started talking.

"I really didn't expect that it was really you." Ning Yue said, "It's an honor for me to be able to help a scientist like you."

Lin Xiao smiled: "Let's talk about these things when we have the opportunity in the future. Let's talk about business first."

"good."

"Well, our Qizhi company is mainly engaged in patent management in the future. Now I have two patents in hand, and the future market value should be hundreds of millions." Lin Xiao introduced: "There is no other business yet."

Two patents worth hundreds of millions?

Ning Yue was slightly surprised. This kind of patent could not be said to be valuable, only very valuable. She was a little curious about what patent it was. Of course, she would have to wait until she officially joined the company to understand these issues.

"In addition, your salary is 150,000 US dollars a year abroad. I can give you 800,000 US dollars a year for the time being. Is that okay? When the company officially makes a profit in the future, I will give you a salary increase according to the situation. "

"Of course it's no problem." Ning Yue smiled slightly and said, "This was originally within the scope of my plan, and I also said that I am very satisfied to be able to work in your company."

If the boss is well-known, it will naturally be easier to attract talents.

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "That's fine."

Then he introduced the work place to Ning Yue. It was their home for the time being. After all, it was a patent management company, especially since they only had two patents. There were not so many things to do, and there were no requirements for the company headquarters. As for registering the company The company address at that time was the house in Yanbeiyuan where Lin Xiao lived.

Ning Yue didn't say anything about this. In fact, Lin Xiao's salary was already very satisfactory to her. In addition, she didn't have many patents, so it is conceivable that she would not be particularly busy in the future, so that she would have more It's time to take care of your mother.

After it was confirmed, the headhunting company would also need to be involved as a third party in signing the contract, so Lin Xiao just informed the headhunting company of the matter and waited for the headhunting company to arrive.

Soon, with the help of a headhunting company, Ning Yue officially became a member of Qizhi Company on the same day.

Then, Lin Xiao naturally handed over various matters to Ning Yue.

The most important thing is naturally to introduce his two patents to the market.
