Chapter 18: Long road to scientific research

　　 "Go to the hospital?" Xu Qiu wondered: "Is there anything wrong with Teacher Wei's body? He looks quite energetic."
"His waist and spine are not good. It should be caused by sedentary sitting and inactivity," Chen Wanqing said with emotion: "He is a workaholic. From my observation, he is basically in the office seven days a week. The time in the office is estimated to be longer than the time at home There are many."
　　 "Then what is he usually busy with?" Xu Qiu asked, "I think he has been in the office and doesn't come out much."
Chen Wanqing did not answer directly, but introduced: "Our group is very special. Counting Tian Qing who is in graduate school this year, there are four people in total. They belong to a small research group, but they have four different research directions. I am'organic'. "Photovoltaic solar cells", Wu Feifei is a "perovskite solar cell", Duan Yun is a "nanocomposite thermoelectric material", and Tian Qing is a "charge transport mechanism of solar cells"."
　　 "Although the four fields overlap, they are not the same field after all.
　　 Therefore, Mr. Wei goes to major journal websites every day to check the latest updated papers and find articles related to our research field, then download them, print them and send them to us.
　　 In addition, he has to take into account the teaching tasks, department meetings, laboratory conditions, and the progress of each of our students' scientific research. "
　　 "It turns out that being a mentor is so busy. I thought that the graduate mentor didn't need to do experiments, and then came to sit in the office every morning, make a pot of tea, and drink for a day." Xu Qiu said.
　　 "There are mentors like that too. If you don't want to climb up further and get better resources, you will be more relaxed." Chen Wanqing said.
　　 Xu Qiu looked at the time and said, "Senior sister, it's time to get off work."
　　 Then, the two went to the laboratory, checked the instrument, closed the windows, set the air conditioner to 22 degrees, and then turned off the lights and locked the door.
　　 Near the meal, Xu Qiu invited:
　　 "Senior sister, you have helped me a lot these days, I invite you to dinner?"
　　 "Okay," Chen Wanqing said with a light smile: "I thought of the research group where my master's degree is. When I first went, my senior sister invited me to dinner, but I didn't expect to come here but the other way around."
　　 "This is easy to handle, it will be fine next time you invite me." Xu Qiu also smiled.
　　 "Wait, where are you going? The cafeteria is over there." Chen Wanqing shouted when Xu Qiu walked in the opposite direction of the cafeteria.
　　 "Ah," Xu Qiu was taken aback, and said, "Should you not go outside for a treat?"
　　 "You treat your guests, you decide, anyway, I just eat it."
　　 "The canteen that your senior sister asked you to eat?"
　　 "Hmm."
　　 "Well, can you eat Sichuan food."
　　 "Yes, I like spicy food."
　　 "Then go to Artesian Sichuan cuisine."
　　 "Hmm."
　　……
　　 "Hello, three dishes of diving bullfrog, stir-fried kidneys, mapo tofu, two bowls of rice, two cans of ice cola, just slightly spicy." Xu Qiu said to the waiter in the shop.
　　 The dishes were served very quickly. In less than 20 minutes, three delicacies with delicious flavors and colors were presented.
　　 Xu Qiu's invitation is not only to thank the elder sister, but also for another purpose.
　　 "Senior sister, can you tell me more about Teacher Wei." Xu Qiu said.
　　 "Well, it's so spicy..." Chen Wanqing took a deep breath, her heart tangled:
　　" Teacher Wei only asked me to find a way to keep Xu Qiu in the group for graduate school. Today, I am going to expose his old knowledge, which seems not very good.
　　 But this is Xu Qiu's younger brother. He asked me to eat Sichuan food. I can't lie to him.
　　 唔... or tell him the truth and let him decide. "
　　 Chen Wanqing put down her chopsticks, took a sip of ice-cola, and began to talk:
　　 "He is a very contradictory person.
　　 On the one hand, in life, he is very good to students.
　　 If you have any questions or troubles, you can ask him, for example, if you want to change the dormitory, he will find a way to negotiate with the department to help you solve it;
　　 will often invite students to dinner, buy snacks, drinks, fruit in the office, and then distribute them to students;
　　 Labor service fees are also paid more than other groups.
　　 But when it comes to scientific research, he will become paranoid and harsh.
　　 He will discuss with you, confirm the recent research content, will give you financial support, and will also set very difficult scientific research goals.
　　In the early days, he was very relaxed, but if he fails to meet his expectations for a long time, he will adopt methods such as reporting criticism at the group meeting, which will give you great psychological pressure and force you to produce results;
　　 There are also strict standards for paper format, picture format, PPT layout, etc. There are some obsessive-compulsive disorders.
　　 If you don’t follow his standards, you will be asked to change it until he feels perfect in his heart.
　　 In short, I feel that in scientific research, he is the kind of person who strictly requires himself and requires his students to become like him. "
　　 took another two sips of Coke, and Chen Wanqing continued:
"Furthermore, his requirements for scientific research results are relatively high. The graduation requirement of the school is a master's degree in a Chinese core journal, a doctoral degree in SCI area one or two SCI areas, and his requirement is a master's degree in SCI area 2. Ph.D. Two papers in SCI area one or four papers in SCI area two.
　　 So, if you only plan to get a diploma, I don't recommend that you study graduate school with Teacher Wei.
　　 Well, this is almost the case, but if you want to achieve something in scientific research, this is quite suitable, but it may be more tiring. "
　　 "Thank you senior sister, I will consider it carefully." Xu Qiu nodded.
　　 After listening to the senior sister, he was basically determined that he would study graduate school with Teacher Wei.
　　 Teacher Wei's treatment of scientific research work is harsh. In the eyes of many students, it may be a shortcoming, but Xu Qiu is an advantage.
　　Who makes him have a system?
　　 What he worries most is encountering character problems, such as beating and scolding students for no reason, or a tutor who often asks students to help themselves with personal affairs.
　　…………
　　 After dinner, Chen Wanqing intends to walk around the mall by the way, and Xu Qiu returns to the bedroom.
　　 On the way, he opened the system interface.

　　##
　　 A week is about to pass. I have mastered a total of 11 instruments, equipment and tools, and 3 experimental operations.
　　 However, Xu Qiu thought again that he hadn't even finished the preparation of devices. After that, he needed to learn a series of things such as material design and synthesis, performance characterization, data analysis and so on.
　　 In the future, I will make innovations and try to realize the ambitions I made when the system first arrived.
　　 Still have to work harder!
　　 The road to scientific research is long.
