Chapter 81 This is a big misunderstanding
Li Zhenya patted his chest and spoke to the two senior students, looking as if they could be interviewed at will.
Wang Haitao beside him nodded in agreement, and at the same time was thinking about how to ask the senior sister for her contact information. After all, there were not many opportunities for the senior sister to take the initiative to ask for help.
On the other hand, the smiles on Yu Ruilan and Xue Mengjie's faces disappeared instantly.
I couldn't stop complaining in my heart.
Your roommate is shy and doesn't like to talk, who are you trying to fool?
Who doesn’t know the strongest freshman in the school this year? Is he really shy to give a speech at the opening ceremony?
Do you love to talk when you attend a mathematics department lecture?
Yu Ruilan and Xue Mengjie are both sophomores in the Journalism Department and are roommates in the same dormitory.
As a journalism student, the most difficult thing is undoubtedly the weekly assignments such as writing news articles and conducting random interviews.
Although Xu Yuan was a freshman in the third grade class, he became a well-known figure in the school within a few months, and the posts related to him on the Shuimu Qinghua Forum received an astonishing number of replies.
It can be said that the celebrity effect has already begun to take shape.
In this case, it is undoubtedly very good interview material.
After all, many reporters outside want to interview Xu Yuan, so you can imagine how valuable it is.
So the two of them hit it off and decided to interview Xu Yuan as this week's professional course assignment.
For this purpose, I even waited downstairs of the boys' dormitory for most of the afternoon.
As a result, before I had even started chatting with the person for a few minutes, the interview subjects became these two unfamiliar boys in front of me.
What else can I do?
Pick it.
After all, they can't run into the boys' dormitory.
The thought stayed here, and Yu Ruilan and Xue Mengjie looked at each other.
Then he raised the microphone and asked a few perfunctorily the random questions we usually ask during interviews on campus.
……
evening.
Xu Yuan was organizing his afternoon research on prime numbers in the dormitory, while Li Zhenya and Wang Haitao were lying on the bed, laughing foolishly.
Xu Yuan was also speechless about this.
Originally he was quite grateful to the two for helping him out, but he didn't expect that they were so excited after they came up after the interview that they were so happy just to ask the two senior sisters for a Penguin account.
Whether it can be added is still unclear.
Even Liu Yang temporarily made a righteous cut, feeling it was too shameful to be associated with them.
However, what they didn't know was that at this moment, a heated complaining conference was being held in the girls' dormitory building of the second class of the Journalism Department.
"You don't know how long Mengjie and I waited this afternoon, and in the end we let the person get away."
"That Xu Yuan even called on his two roommates to cooperate with us."
"I should have just randomly picked two people from the Mathematics Department and interviewed them and came back directly."
Yu Ruilan obviously had a hot temper. When she talked to another girl in the same dormitory, she didn't show any sign of stopping for two minutes.
Obviously very unhappy with the actions this afternoon.
Xue Mengjie, who was sitting in front of the computer and writing an article, stopped what she was doing, turned around and took over the conversation:
"I saw on the school forum that Xu Yuan usually spends his time in the library except for classes and going back to the dormitory. He probably doesn't like being interviewed."
"On the Internet, there is only this exclusive interview news from Youth Daily."
"In the world of geniuses there is only study. They would never do something as time-wasting as interviewing. It seems like you two chose the wrong person to interview this time." Another girl sitting on the bed commented with a smile.
Yu Ruilan obviously realized this and responded with a sigh and some helplessness to herself.
"I can only submit the interview content of his two roommates. I originally thought that this article would go viral on the school forum."
As they were talking, the dormitory door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a girl with fair skin and a side ponytail walked in. She looked like she had encountered something and there was no smile on her round, short face.
Yu Ruilan immediately asked when she saw the person coming: "Yu Ran, have you finished writing the interview script for this week?"
"Not yet." Chen Yuran shook her head and replied.
"You won't have no one to interview today, will you, Yu Ran? We can't have people in the journalism department who are too introverted." Xue Mengjie couldn't help but add when she heard that.
Chen Yuran listened to her two roommates and stood in the dormitory corridor, not knowing what to say.
I applied for the journalism department in order to become a journalist, but I still can't change my introverted and fearful personality.
I don’t even dare to randomly interview strangers outside.
Even the weekly professional course assignments were done by interviewing acquaintances.
It is said that during her sophomore year, she bravely made up her mind to change herself.
To this end, with the encouragement of my roommates, I randomly selected classmates on campus for interviews.
After a long period of mental preparation, she finally decided on the interviewee in the square in front of the Science Building. She learned from overhearing other people talking with the interviewee that the interviewee was a graduate student in the Department of Mathematics.
But after I actually went up to introduce myself and asked the interview questions, I was told that I was not Qinghua's student.
She was even left standing there alone, feeling awkward.
Ever since she failed in this first battle, she became even more afraid to interview strangers and ask questions.
Because of this situation, she even considered changing her major.
After all, if a journalist doesn’t dare to communicate with others, what kind of journalist is he?
At this moment, Yu Ruilan suddenly thought of something, stood up, pushed Chen Yuran to the chair next to her and sat down with a mysterious look on her face.
"Why don't you go interview Xu Yuan, Yu Ran? It just so happens that the two of you have similar personalities."
"I usually like to be alone."
Before Chen Yuran could respond, Xue Mengjie on the opposite side immediately interrupted and said, "The two of us failed to conduct the interview, so how can Yuran do it alone?" She was not very optimistic about Yu Ruilan's proposal.
After hearing this, Yu Ruilan was considering whether her proposal was inappropriate, but she saw Chen Yuran tilting her head and asking, "Is Xu Yuan the freshman in the mathematics department?"
She seldom communicates with others and doesn't often visit the school forum.
Although I have heard of this name, I have never seen it.
Yu Ruilan obviously knew her roommate quite well, so she didn't show much surprise when she heard this.
I just skillfully opened the school forum and found the photos of Xu Yuan attending the opening ceremony as a representative of the freshmen.
"He is Xu Yuan, a freshman in the third-grade class. In addition to winning a gold medal in a math competition, he is also the top scorer in his province. More importantly, he published a paper in the Mathematical Yearbook within two months of the start of the school year."
“You should have heard of the Mathematical Annals.”
“Now there is almost no freshman who doesn’t know him.”
Listening to Yu Ruilan's words, Chen Yuran looked at the photo on the screen. When she noticed the familiar face, she was suddenly startled.
The pupils were much dilated.
She really didn't expect that the other party was the graduate student in the Department of Mathematics who rejected her interview last semester.
After standing there awkwardly in front of the science building for a long time that day, she lost her good impression of this graduate student.
She thought the other party was deliberately deceiving her.
But now it seems that as a freshman in the three-character class this year, he was indeed not a student of Qinghua at that time.
It turned out that she had misunderstood others.
When she finally figured out the matter, she felt very embarrassed.
After thinking for a moment, she seemed to have made a decision and took the initiative to ask Yu Ruilan.
"Sister Ruilan, do you know where he usually is? I want to interview him."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xue Mengjie and the other girl on the bed both widened their eyes in surprise.
Normally, she doesn’t even dare to communicate with classmates in the department, but this time she actually wanted to interview this year’s freshman representatives right away. Her courage was so high that they almost didn’t recognize her.
Fearing that they would be hit again, they all spoke up to dissuade him.
"You have to think carefully about Yu Ran. He looks like the type of guy who doesn't like to be disturbed."
"Why not choose his two roommates? I saw they were pretty easy to talk to during the interview this afternoon."
Chen Yuran listened to everyone's words and thought about it for a moment.
Finally he nodded, still firm.
"I want to try."
Yu Ruilan was very happy about Chen Yuran's transformation and immediately guaranteed the deal.
"I support Yu Ran. Those two happened to leave me their phone numbers. I can ask them where Xu Yuan is usually."
Although this is the interview that she usually dreads, Chen Yuran is looking forward to it for some reason.
……
the next day.
Although it was the day when the number theory academic conference ended, Xu Yuan originally did not plan to go again because there was not much novelty in the content of the reports.
After all, I have a paper on the innovative canard aerodynamic layout that needs to be completed as soon as possible.
Time is indeed not abundant.
However, before ten o'clock, Tang Shihong called and said that he had something important to discuss with him.
I had no choice but to rush over again.
After arriving at the meeting room that Tang Shihong mentioned on the phone, they found that in addition to Tang Shihong and Liao Fangyi, there was also a female professor who looked about the same age as Tang Shihong.
At this time Xu Yuan also recalled that the other party was sitting in the first row when he went on stage to give a two-hour report yesterday.
And he seemed to be quite familiar with Liao Fangyi.
Since Xu Yuan didn't know the other party before, he greeted Tang Shihong and Liao Fangyi after knocking on the door and entering.
"Professor Tang."
"director."
"Is there something urgent that you want me to come over for?"
When Liao Fangyi saw Xu Yuan coming over, he quickly said, "You came at the right time. Actually, Professor Wang wants to ask you for help today."
"Professor Wang?"
"Looking for my help?"
After hearing what Liao Fangyi said, a question mark slowly emerged in Xu Yuan's mind.
It was obvious that the other party was not a professor at Qinghua University, and he really couldn't imagine what the other party needed help from him, an undergraduate student.
Fortunately, his doubt did not last too long. Liao Fangyi soon realized this and quickly introduced it.
"I forgot to introduce you. This is Professor Wang Xiaoyun from the Department of Mathematics at Qilu University."
"Let Professor Wang tell you the details."
Hearing that the other party was a professor of mathematics, Xu Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly extended his hand to greet him.
"Hello, Professor Wang."
"I listened to yesterday's report, it was very exciting." Wang Xiaoyun praised with a smile on her face.
At this time, Xu Yuan could basically guess that the other party's main purpose of participating in the number theory academic conference was probably because of today's incident.
