Chapter 941: The most creative poster (Tue / Thu)

After throwing the press conference in the afternoon to Brother Luo, Lu Zhou found that his time was unexpectedly free.
As he sat in the hotel, thinking about where to go to pass the time, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be an invitation there.
Recalling what Professor Kluberger said in the letter, Lu Zhou hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and sighed.
"Forget it, idle is idle, just go wherever you want."
It just happened that he was also very curious, is his Lu-Bewley model really like the guy who blows, so great.
And the place where the meeting is held seems to be a five-star hotel. The invitation letter is accompanied by a voucher for dinner and lunch. Even if you are not very interested in economics reports, it seems good to have a meal?
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou no longer hesitated, stood up and changed to casual clothes, and by the way called Wang Peng and asked him to drive the car from the garage to the hotel door and wait for himself before going out to the elevator Go downstairs.
"Xinrui Hotel ... seems to be a newly built five-star hotel with a slight suburban location."
Sitting in the back of the car, Lu Zhou glanced out the invitation and reported the address to Wang Peng.
Reaching out to set up navigation on the car touch screen, Wang Peng looked at the distance shown on the map.
"Xinrui Hotel, isn't it? It doesn't seem to be so far away. It can be reached within 30 minutes without a traffic jam."
Lu Zhou, who had begun to close his eyes and nourish himself, said casually, "Don't worry, just drive slowly."
"Are you going to a meeting this time?"
"It's okay, but mainly to grab a meal."
"Ok……"
...
As Wang Peng estimated, the 30-minute drive was not too much, just right at the entrance of Xinrui Hotel.
After seeing the car parked in front of the hotel, the waiter waiting in front of the door immediately stepped forward. After seeing the invitation letter in Lu Zhou's hand, he quickly led the two into the hotel.
As he walked through the hotel lobby, Lu Zhou looked around the decoration and the people who shuttled in and out of the lobby.
When he found that there were no tourists here, he couldn't help feeling.
It is indeed a study of how to spend money. These economists have said so in a meeting.
Not only are the conference venues selected for five-star hotels, but they are even reserved.
It ’s like their mathematician meeting, small conferences are renting two-story conference rooms, lunch coupons are issued separately for dinner, such grand events as chartering are generally only done at top conferences such as IMO conferences, and when the site is selected I would not pick such a bustling place.
Lu Zhou still remembers the hotel chosen by the International Conference of Mathematicians in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Although the environment is not bad, it is also incomparable to a five-star hotel compared to a general resort hotel.
And still in the suburbs.
No wonder these "big dogs" are unheard of in Princeton. They took so much money with the math tools they researched, and it's no wonder they can be seen!
But then again, although these economists didn't look like bad money, Lu Zhou speculated that the place where the meeting would be so magnificent was also somewhat shaken by the organizers of the conference. The names of Dan University and several well-known domestic universities such as Shanghai University of Finance and Economics are somewhat related.
Local governments and universities are willing to bear part of the expenses if they can attract such internationally renowned academic conferences to themselves.
After all, isn't there something to say?
Things that can be solved with money are nothing.
Leaving it in the past is that others are unwilling to spend money.
But now, the whole environment is completely different from before.
With the rise of the Chinese economy, more and more scholars and economic experts have become interested in the model of the Chinese nation, and are willing to take academic eyes to study the existing or possible problems in the Chinese economy and this rising What impact might the giant behemoth have on the world economy ...
From an objective point of view, it is certainly good to be able to attract international scholars to contribute their brain cells to the Chinese economy.
After entering the venue, Lu Zhou didn't care about anything else. First, he went around the booth where the souvenirs were distributed, and happily collected manuscripts provided by several well-known investment banks, as well as some wealthy banks and well-known pen dealers. Meetings are produced exclusively for fountain pens.
These pens are generally not available on the market, and few people will buy them. Although they are not sure whether they can appreciate in value, the significance of collection is still quite significant.
In the past, Lu Zhou had the habit of collecting small gifts from academic conferences. For him, this was another form of academic resume besides the conjectures he proved.
It was only in the past two years that he attended a few academic conferences that this hobby did not continue.
Now revisiting this feeling, looking at the pen in his hand, Lu Zhou is also quite nostalgic.
Beside the table where small gifts are distributed, there is a poster exchange area.
It is not much different from academic conferences in mathematics. Regardless of the high-end topics to be discussed in the conference hall, such conferences usually give young scholars who are not qualified to apply for "talk" a chance to show their academic achievements.
Also known as "poster".
Compared to "talk", the threshold for posters is much lower, as if it is a street food market next to a high-end mall. Most of the exchanges and discussions here are for doctors or masters, which are rarely seen even after the blog. Because the threshold is not high, the form of communication here is also quite casual. Prepare an eye-catching poster and a sufficiently loud voice.
Although for academics, poster communication is relatively low-level compared to other communication methods, this is still a very useful communication method.
I walked around the colorful poster booths, and Lu Zhou found that most of the posters were no different from days for him. Although every word and word are recognized, they do n’t know what they mean when connected together. Already.
When he started to feel big, he suddenly noticed that one of the posters had a few words written on it ... familiar?
"... Lu-Bewley model?"
Although the poster was frustrating and the title was unclear, only these words were written down seriously.
Hearing the murmur in Lu Zhou's mouth, the thin and tall man standing in front of the poster pushed his glasses down, raised his eyebrows, and said with interest.
"You are also studying this direction?"
After hearing what the young man had said to himself, Lu Zhou gave a slight stupefaction, then said with a smile.
"That's right."
"That's a coincidence, it seems we are peers," said his right hand. The young man who didn't seem to be very old, grinned, "Weisser, Princeton is studying for a PhD and is studying the direction of macroeconomics ... … To be more specific, I am figuring out how to build mathematical models of economic models that can be represented by intuitive numbers, and the Lu-Bewley model is the subject I am studying! "
His posters have been standing here since the morning, and no one has been interested in his posters.
Now it's hard to come across a person who seems interested in his posters, and is still a young scholar who also studies the Lu-Bewley model. Of course, he is not willing to let this person go easily.
However, Lu Zhou had no plans to leave.
He came to attend this academic conference because he was curious about whether the Lu-Bewley model was as exaggerated as Professor Krugman described.
"The Lu-Bewley model is important?"
Although it might be narcissistic to ask such a straightforward question, Lu Zhou couldn't help asking it.
However, this Mr. Weisser seemed to have misunderstood the meaning of Lu Zhou's tone, and heard it as a skeptical tone. He immediately raised his eyebrows and raised the volume to set off the debate.
"Of course! It is undoubtedly the most important economic model in recent years! Since you are studying this direction, you should know the Bewley model! The Lu-Bewley model is equivalent to its enhanced version ... Speaking of which, you really Are you studying this direction? How do I feel like you are a layman. "
Watching Weisser's skeptical look, Lu Zhou said without hesitation a half-truth.
"Of course, are you doubting me?"
"No," Wiesel quickly waved, "In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't understand at all. This is a relatively cutting-edge research direction. But my suggestion is that if you plan to understand the Lu-Bewley model, I recommend You go to Lecture Hall No. 1. "
Lu Zhou: "Report Hall 1?"
"Yes, Professor Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel Prize winner. Even if you don't know the Lu-Bewley model at all, you should have heard of his Dixit-Stiglitz model, but he doesn't The leader in the field of symmetric information economics theory ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is also a rare economic expert who also has profound insights in mathematical theory. "
For some reason, Weisser's tone suddenly brought a bit of envy. I don't know who was envious. "Honestly, if there is no poster communication to do, I really shouldn't miss his lecture."
"If you want to go, you can't go directly," after hearing the regret in his tone, Lu Zhou glanced at the empty poster booth and said a little bit incomprehensibly. "No one seems to be coming anyway." Here you are. "
"How do you do that!" Seems to be very dissatisfied with Lu Zhou, Weisser countered immediately, "If no one here watched for a long time, my poster will be taken away, which is equivalent to automatically giving up the best poster creative award Qualifications! "
"IMHO ... do you expect to win the best poster creative award with this poster?" Looking at this poster, which is no different from a child's graffiti, Lu Zhou opened his mouth a little dumbly.
He believed that the gadget was abstract art.
But it ’s an academic poster ...
Seriously, he might as well take a blank piece of paper and write down what he wants to discuss line by line.
However, this Mr. Weissl didn't seem to take his irony seriously and still said stubbornly.
"In case? How do you know if you can win if you don't try?"
Lu Zhou shook his head.
"Then you come on ... I'll go to Report Hall No. 1 and get better."
"Go on, I'm afraid I won't have to sit on the corridor ... By the way, wait a minute, I haven't asked your name yet?" Wiesel planned to stop the departing Luzhou, but was poster The long table beside blocked the way.
He heard Mr. Weisser calling him in the back, but Lu Zhou didn't turn back, just hesitated and dropped a word.
"Lu Zhou."
Wiesel: "... ????"
