Chapter 172: A missionary course on "Jiang Hao Computer Language" "Oh my god, teacher, you are amazing. You are going to complete the basic language database by recruiting college students from relevant majors across the country!" "Teacher, this is a brilliant move of yours. Besides, this basic logic is not too difficult. These college students are just right for it!" After the meeting, Wang Tingzheng excitedly expressed his admiration to his teacher Jiang Hao. He was not trying to flatter his teacher, but was genuinely shocked by the teacher's move of "mobilizing the power of the masses." Before, he had been worried about how to fill the massive "basic language database". The teacher solved the problem directly by leveraging the power of college students across the country. Cai Zhu frowned and said, "But the question is, how can we mobilize these college students?" Wang Tingzheng said, "What's so difficult about this? Just give me extra credits!" Cai Zhu frowned. He always felt that this "extra credits" was unreliable. Jiang Hao also glanced at Wang Tingzheng. He was also unhappy with Wang Tingzheng's "extra credits". College students are also human beings! Jiang Hao said to Wang Tingzheng, "You are just sending away beggars! All you know is 'adding credits'!" "Money!" Jiang Hao spat out a word, then smiled mysteriously and said, "Let me help my classmates in computer science across the country get a little rich!"
Harbin University of Technology, one of the "Seven Sons of National Defense" and the "Cradle of Engineers", is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. It is one of the first batch of key construction universities of the "211 Project" and one of the first nine universities to be key constructed by the national "985 Project". On Monday of the new week, the school’s official website suddenly added an elective course for students of all majors in the school: "An educational course on "Jiang Hao Computer Language"." The course description only has one sentence: an educational course on a new computer language; Lecturer: Professor Wen Zhiguang; Course Description: Open to students of all majors in the school, free choice, no credits, and strict examinations. "'Jiang Hao Computer Language'? What is this?" In the dormitory, Fang Rencheng, an undergraduate student from the School of Computer Science and Technology, frowned as he looked at the elective courses pushed on the school's official website. "Jiang Hao? Is he the Jiang Hao, the world's richest man and Nobel Prize winner in economics? Isn't he an economist?" Fang Rencheng's roommate also came over to take a look. Fang Rencheng said to his roommate, "After cashing out from Pinduoduo, he started making chips. This computer language should be related to chips, right?" When Fang Rencheng's roommate heard this, he immediately said in a sober tone, "Bullshit, that chip he made didn't make anything!" "Do you think that you can make chips with advanced lithography machines?" "His chip company is just a hype, buying land at a low price and then doing real estate!" Fang Rencheng frowned, ignored his roommate's "clear-headedness", and did not debate with him. When Fang Rencheng was bored and browsing the library recently, he happened to read a paper on "New Operation Commands and Parametric Programming" published by Wang Tingzheng, a student of Jiang Hao, in the inconspicuous "Journal of Zhejiang University". This paper was not published in a top journal, not even an external journal, so it was inconspicuous. Moreover, the paper was full of chaos and no one wanted to read it. Many people thought that this was a personal gain for his students by the "academic tycoon" Jiang Hao. But Fang Rencheng unexpectedly looked into it. After reading this paper, Fang Rencheng's mind was completely confused. His computer knowledge system, which was not very solid to begin with, became a complete mess. Especially every time he attended class, he was always in agony, always feeling that what he learned was not right. So, he started to get in touch with "Jiang Hao" and he read all the mathematics in Jiang Hao's economics. After finishing reading, some more economics came into his mind, which made him even more confused. He struggled in all kinds of confusion and bewilderment every day. And now, seeing that there was an elective computer language course named "Jiang Hao", Fang Rencheng frowned even more. Maybe it is true as my roommate said, that this course is just a "hype" by Jiang Hao, but the main lecturer of this course is Professor Wen Zhiguang, a Yangtze River Scholar.
Although Professor Wen Zhiguang has not produced any new results in the past two years, and many people say that he has "run out of ideas", Fang Rencheng has attended Professor Wen Zhiguang's classes and has seen the enthusiasm Professor Wen showed on the subject. He did not show any anxiety about "running out of ideas", but instead was excited about breaking through the "bottleneck". So when Professor Wen Zhiguang came to teach this course, Fang Rencheng felt that things were not that simple. But after taking a quick look at the one-sentence course introduction, Fang Rencheng frowned and couldn't help but complain, "Ah? What a mess!" Fang Rencheng's roommate also spoke up: "Free choice, no credits, nothing. Only a fool would go there!" But Fang Rencheng thought about it seriously. He wanted to listen, at least to find out what kind of computer language this was. Seeing Fang Rencheng's eagerness to try, his roommate immediately asked, "Old Fang, you don't really want to go, do you? This elective course is not mandatory, and it doesn't even give you credits, there's no benefit at all, why are you going?" "And you see, the lecturer is Professor Wen Zhiguang. Although Professor Wen Zhiguang is a Yangtze River Scholar, he hasn't produced any results in several years. He must have received money from Jiang Hao to teach this course. He must want to make a fortune with his title! Help Jiang Hao hype himself up!" The roommate’s analysis was refreshing, but Fang Rencheng said, “I want to go and listen.” "What an idiot!" The roommate threw down a sentence, climbed onto his bed unhappily, and lay on the bed playing with his mobile phone. Why not just play with the mobile phone at this time? Why did he have to be so stupid as to attend a class that didn't even earn him credits! There is no shortage of "clear-headed people" in this world, but there is also no shortage of "fools". Some smart students fail to see the significance of taking this elective course and simply ignore it; and there are always some "fools" who choose this elective course. Professor Wen Zhiguang looked at the forty students from various majors in the school in the classroom and smiled. He looked at the list and found that more than a dozen of these forty students were majoring in economics. It was obvious that they came directly to see their "ancestor" Jiang Hao and were not interested in this "computer language". As for why other students came, Professor Wen Zhiguang didn't know either. Professor Wen Zhiguang really wanted all the students in the school to come and take this course, so he forced all his graduate students to come. However, as a member of the "106" group, Professor Wen Zhiguang had to be cautious. He could not, and did not want to, reveal any content about the "JHSX Lecture Notes". Professor Wen Zhiguang, who was standing on the stage, said: "Many students don't know what this course is about until the first class. I won't say much, but as long as you really want to learn, I will do my best to guide you." "Whether you can accept it or how much you can accept depends on your own luck." Professor Wen Zhiguang's words actually explained a lot. Fang Rencheng in the audience frowned. At this moment he was sure that there was a "conspiracy" in this course! When Professor Wen Zhiguang's class started, the audience immediately exploded: "What is this all about?" "This is fucking programming? Although I majored in economics, I also taught myself computer programming, right?" "Really? I think it's great!" Some students from the School of Economics and Management who had never done computer programming but had studied all the economics papers of the "grandfather" and had been exposed to the mathematical models in Jiang Hao's economics papers understood it very smoothly. "No, I always feel that something is wrong! It's indeed wrong!" Fang Rencheng continued to listen to the class carefully with his heartbeat speeding up and his blood boiling. He didn't know what was wrong, but at this moment he was really sure that there was "something" different here. Another mathematics student nodded seriously after listening to Fang Rencheng's words: "Listen carefully, don't you think this new language is strange? It's so strange that it makes me feel very smooth." This scene happened in many universities across the country. (End of this chapter)
