ଓChapter 51, Quillen (Fields)
Ye Xuan's winter vacation ended on January 3rd, and the Spring Festival of 2011 fell on February 2nd due to the leap month. Even though MIT has a long winter vacation of more than 40 days, Chen Yitong has no way to rush back to China. Lu Jiayin returned to the country by herself, even if it wasn't for the Chen family's disgusting people, she still wanted to go back and see her parents.
Ye Xuan also helped the start-up company formulate a sound business plan and completed it before the end of the holiday. Solved the key issues including business cooperation model, product positioning, target customers, etc., and even gave some detailed suggestions - I suggest that you can find an organization to cooperate and publish an empirical paper, proving that remote office is more efficient than on-site office, and at the same time in the mainstream Launch activities in the media to support remote work, so that not only the employees are satisfied, but also the number of your customers has increased. How about "red energy nourishes people"? Ye Xuan regained his confidence with Chen Yitong, and good news came one after another. Ye Xuan got an A+ in the most important professional course, Natural Language Processing (NIP Natural Language Processing). This course should only be involved in senior grades, but as a freshman, Ye Xuan got full marks. Due to her outstanding performance, she was exceptionally invited to enter the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of Stanford University to participate in experimental research. Ye Xuan entered the laboratory for the first time, and carefully selected the clothes, trying to make people feel that he took this RA (research assistant) seriously without going too far. After thinking about it, she decided to wear it like a classic programmer, with a light gray cashmere sweater inside, a classic checked shirt outside, and a pair of slightly flared white overalls. But when she walked into the lab, she found she was wrong, professors and classmates were all dressed in fashion, and she made a stereotype mistake. Fortunately, the teachers are very kind, but I think it is very interesting for Ye Xuan to wear it like this: "Is it code-tine yet I see you're already in your checked attire." Already put on your plaid shirt)
Just kidding, but after a brief meeting, everyone immediately got into work. This is not a utopian paradise protected by labor laws, where the myth of leaving get off work at 3 p.m. does not exist.
The top laboratories are as introverted as the domestic universities, but the tutor will not force you to work overtime, he will only ask you for results. As long as you are slightly behind and cannot bring enough contributions to the lab, you will be eliminated. Ye Xuan instantly felt a particularly strong sense of crisis, and it was even more difficult for her as a junior undergraduate to gain a foothold in a top laboratory.
Sighing deeply, Ye Xuan remembered that she hadn't found her seat yet. Just wanted to ask where is her workplace? I saw a Chinese face walking towards her. "Hello, Ye Xuan, I'm Lao Shihui, and you will follow me in the laboratory from now on." Lao Shihui's Chinese pronunciation is a bit strange, and Ye Xuan suppressed a smile out of politeness. I laughed when I was done. "Sorry, I immigrated to the US when I was a bit over one year old, so my Chinese pronunciation might not be very good, so let's just stick to English." Chinese pronunciation may not be very good, let me speak English with you) Ye Xuan saw the nameplate on Lao Shihui's chest, which is an assistant researcher from the School of Engineering. Ye Xuan now also understands why she was able to enter such a top laboratory as a junior undergraduate student. It turned out that Lao Shihui wanted her. There are only two Asian faces in the whole laboratory, and only two of them are women.
Lao Shihui took Ye Xuan to her workstation: "Sorry, this computer is a bit old, but the configuration is still great. Once my research funding is approved, I'll help you apply for a new one." (Sorry, this computer is a little old, but the configuration is still very powerful. After my research funding is approved, I will help you apply for a new computer.) Although the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory has sufficient funds, Lao Shihui as an
