The Hilton Hotel Xu Qiu stayed at was a four-star hotel with relatively high grades. There were special concierge services, including parking staff, porters, etc. If the guests needed, they could help with parking and carrying luggage.
The bellboy waiting outside the Hilton Hotel is a little white brother. He saw Xu Qiu and the others pulling their luggage out of the taxi and offered to help with the luggage.
Xu Qiu and the others naturally declined. Before, almost all Wei Xingsi paid the bill. They only had one taxi purchase in the beautiful country. The cash in their hands was not 50 US dollars or 100 US dollars in face value. It was not convenient to tip.
I can’t give 100 dollars and let the other party get 97 dollars in change. It seems impolite.
The three people entered the hotel, as if walking into a new world.
Because the air-conditioning inside the hotel is quite sufficient, compared with the hot environment outside, it is heavenly.
Xu Qiu moved to the front desk of the hotel while looking at the surrounding environment.
They just entered the hotel through the south main entrance. In addition to the main entrance, there are two side entrances to the east and west.
When booking the hotel before, Xu Qiu noticed that the location of the MRS Convention and Exhibition Center was directly east of the hotel, so if you waited to go to the venue, you can leave directly from the east gate.
The area of the lobby is very large. On one side, there are sofas and coffee tables for guests to rest and discuss affairs; on the other side, there is a bar-style restaurant, but it is not open now. In the center of the lobby, there are from the first floor to the dozen or so floors. A certain area is open, and when viewed from below, it is exceptionally transparent.
In the conspicuous position of the door, there are two free drink supply points. Inferring from the appearance of the drink, one of them should be freshly squeezed watermelon juice, and the other is lemonade with mint leaves.
The three people walked to the front desk of the hotel, and some guests were checking in.
After lining up, Xu Qiu turned around and asked, "Is there a detour to that black brother just now?"
"Well... it's a detour," Han Jiaying said while checking the Gugou map, "but he seems to have some conscience, and he didn't go too obvious. It cost about 5 dollars more for the fare."
Xu Qiu let out a "Oh" and threw the business card that the black brother had previously given into the trash can next to it.
He probably understands why Wei Xingsi called for a car by himself. He may be saying: "I have a calling card in a beautiful country. I am very familiar with beautiful country. Don't even think about slaughtering me."
Of course, Xu Qiu doesn’t plan to contact him, regardless of whether he takes a detour or not. The reason is very simple. He does not have a mobile phone number in a beautiful country, and it is impossible to get a SIM card in a beautiful country to call a taxi. card.
The one who checked in earlier was an old man, most likely a curry countryman who came to attend the MRS meeting. Because the English spoken by the other party had a strong curry taste, Xu Qiu could barely understand what the other party was saying: Guru..."
The little white man at the front desk of the hotel, although he spoke with an accent, Xu Qiu didn't sound strenuous.
After waiting for a few minutes, Curry Country finally finished check-in. It was Xu Qiu and the others. After showing their passports and freezing a deposit of $1,000 on the credit card, the three successfully checked in to the hotel and got them. room card.
The check-out time of general hotels is around 12 noon, and the check-in time is around 2 pm, but now that there are vacancies, the hotel front desk asked Xu Qiu to check in early.
The two rooms are on the 16th floor, and they are not far apart. Xu Qiu’s room number is 1607, the double room, and Wu Feifei and Han Jiaying’s room number is 1612, a standard room.
Xu Qiu and the three people walked to the elevator. At this moment, an empty elevator came to the first floor. They pulled the suitcase and walked in.
Through the elevator button next to it, you can see that the Hilton Hotel has 36 floors.
Of course, the possibility that higher floors need to be reached by special elevators is not ruled out.
In addition to accommodation, this hotel also provides a variety of services, including swimming pools, gyms, meeting rooms and other facilities.
In addition, for safety reasons, the hotel must first swipe the card before allowing the elevator to run.
After Xu Qiu swiped his room card on the card reader, a signal light below the elevator buttons 1-29 turned on, while the signal light below the 30-36 buttons was dim.
This shows that Xu Qiu's room card only has permission to go to floors 1-29, while floors 30-36 are not authorized. The latter is likely to be prepared for VIP guests, such as guests staying in the presidential suite.
Xu Qiu pressed the "16" button...
The elevator door is closed...
The number on the digital display panel that identifies the real-time elevator floor is beating rapidly...
The number stops when it changes to 16...
The elevator door opens...
"Have you reached the 16th floor so soon?" Han Jiaying leaned in Xu Qiu's direction and said, "This elevator goes so fast, I'm a little dizzy."
try{mad1('gad2');}catch(ex){} Xu Qiu helped the school girl, and responded: "It was really fast, probably only about ten seconds passed."
In China, Xu Qiu has not come into contact with an elevator that runs so fast. He also doesn't know what factors are related to the operating speed when designing the elevator.
Although intuition tells him that the speed may be positively correlated with the height of the floor, the height of the tallest twin building in the University of Magic is not too low. There are 33 floors, but the elevator runs at a slow speed.
In school, Xu Qiu often took the elevator from the 1st floor to the Department of Materials Department on the 7th floor in the East Main Building of the Twin Towers, but it took more than 10 seconds each time even if it was a direct elevator. It takes more time to get from the first floor to the 16th floor.
At this time, Wu Feifei inserted a sentence in a timely manner: "When shall we wait to gather and register at the venue?"
Xu Qiu glanced at the time, it was ten and forty in the morning, and said, "A quarter past eleven. After registration, we will find a place to have lunch, how about?"
Wu Feifei nodded: "Well, yes."
Xu Qiu returned to his room 1607, swiped his card, opened the door, closed the door, dropped his luggage, and turned on the air conditioner, all in one go.
There is no need to insert the room card into the card slot in front of the door to have electricity, like domestic express hotels, but the room remains energized for 24 hours.
The area of the room is larger than the standard room of the three-star hotel in Los Angeles yesterday, but there is not much difference in the types of furniture:
Separate bathroom, a large bed, a sofa bed, a coffee table, a few stools, a cabinet.
There is a TV, a coffee machine, a small refrigerator, and a "small treasure box" on the cabinet.
Inside the "Little Treasure Box", there are two free bottles of drinking water and two free packets of powdered coffee pods.
This coffee pod does not look like instant coffee. It should be ground coffee from coffee beans. It needs to be brewed in a coffee machine before drinking.
Other things are charged, including family planning supplies, but due to the premium of star-rated hotels and the exchange rate premium, Xu Qiu glanced at the price list, and the minimum started at $5, so he was not interested in learning more about it. Up.
At the end of the room is a window, through which you can see the street scene outside. The pedestrians on the road are like ants, and the cars are just bigger ants.
It’s no wonder that bosses like to work on the top floor of high-rise office buildings. From the top down, all beings are ants.
Xu Qiu charged the power bank, portable WIFI, and mobile phone, and then ran to the bathroom to take a shower.
From the airport to the hotel, in less than twenty minutes, he sweated halfway through.
Mainly because when he set off from the magic city, he didn't expect that it would be so hot here. The clothes he wore were still long sleeves and long trousers.
After taking a shower, the air conditioner has lowered the temperature in the room to about 20 degrees Celsius. Xu Qiu decisively changed into short sleeves and shorts, showing "too" lying on the big bed.
Occupying a soft big bed alone, it is very comfortable.
Soon, at the agreed eleven one quarter, Xu Qiu was carrying a backpack, portable WIFI, power bank, and Wu Feifei, Han Jiaying and others gathered at the elevator entrance and swiped his card to go downstairs.
Both girls' faces are blingbling, they should be sunscreen that reflects light.
In addition, they each took a parasol, but none of them carried school bags.
MRS Convention and Exhibition Center is on the east side of the hotel, separated by a single street in the middle, which is equivalent to the door facing the Hilton Hotel.
Seeing the gate of the convention and exhibition center close at hand, Xu Qiu vomited: "Let’s live directly next to the convention and exhibition center."
Han Jiaying said with a "hmm" and added: "These hotels should be built specifically for this convention and exhibition center. Of course they should be closer."
Xu Qiu nodded: "That's true."
The three people entered the exhibition center. This morning is the time for centralized registration. Therefore, the flow of people inside the venue is relatively large.
Xu Qiu looked around and found that there are more whites and yellows, while blacks are relatively few. The visual ratio is roughly 4.5:4:1.5.
Some people seem to have completed the registration process and are walking toward the gate. They have a tag hanging on their necks with the name, MRS spring meeting, etc. printed on the tag.
Not far from the entrance, there is a notice board that prompts information about registration:
According to the first letter of each person’s surname, the conference hall divides the visiting scholars into several registration areas, and you need to register in the corresponding areas.
Xu Qiu is X, Han Jiaying is H, Wu Feifei is W, and the three people register in different places.
Fortunately, there is WIFI in the conference venues and hotels. In these areas, the three people don’t have much demand for portable WIFI, and it’s okay to be separated for a short time.
try{mad1('gad2');}catch(ex){} After confirming that the WIFI of the Convention and Exhibition Center has been connected and the network is smooth, the three of them parted ways and went to the position corresponding to their initials to register.
On Xu Qiu's side, the staff member in charge of registration is a white lady. The other party handed over a piece of paper and asked to fill in some basic information.
After filling in , Xu Qiu returned the paper and showed her passport.
The staff checked on the computer for a while, then rummaged through a bunch of hangtags, and found Xu Qiu's hangtag, along with other things, and stuffed it with Xu Qiu.
Xu Qiu gave way to the registered queuing channel, and found a table nearby to count the materials in hand, including:
A cartoon version of the map around the venue, with major hotels and landmarks nearby.
A card holder printed with MRS spring meeting is of little practical use and can only be used as a souvenir.
A tag that can be hung around his neck, which is the kind Xu Qiu just saw other people wear.
In theory, only people wearing hang tags can enter the venue. However, Xu Qiu found that the inspections at the venue were not strict, and the number of security guards that could be seen was not even as large as that of the Hilton Hotel next door. It seems that Wei Xingsi mentioned earlier that "someone The phenomenon of "will not register and then sneak in to listen" is true.
After all, the registration fee for the MRS conference is still quite high. It costs $150 for students and nearly $1,000 for teachers. For researchers who have no mines at home, this expenditure is not a small amount.
Even in a country that pays more attention to the treatment of scientific research workers, such as the beautiful country, the salary of scientific research workers is not the top one, and the salary income is significantly lower than that of doctors, lawyers, IT industry, financial industry, and politicians.
Finally, there is also an MRS exhibition manual, which is about 40 cm long, 30 cm wide, and 20 cm thick. It feels very heavy to hold in your hand.
Xu Qiu glanced through the exhibition manual. There were hundreds of pages of content, detailing the daily specific meeting arrangements, including the speaker, report summary, report place, etc., as well as catalogs and tables at all levels for assistance. Retrieval is very convenient.
This morning is mainly for participants to register, and there is no specific report arrangement.
Starting this afternoon, conference reports in various fields of materials science began to be lined up.
Most reports are 15-minute reports and 10 minutes for questions, totaling 25 minutes. For a small number of expert scholars, the lecture time will be extended to 30 minutes, and the questioning time will also be extended to 15 minutes 45 minutes.
The time and location of the report are arranged according to the theme, and the same theme will be prioritized in different time periods in the same room on the same day.
In this case, if you are a practitioner on the subject, you don’t need to run around, just listen to the report continuously in one room.
Xu Qiu’s report was scheduled in Room A217. The first session on the morning of April 6th started at 8 o’clock and ended at 8:45. There were many reports on the progress of organic photovoltaics.
It can be considered that Xu Qiu's report is the opening speech on the small topic of organic photovoltaics.
However, although reports in the field of organic photovoltaics were concentrated on April 6, UU Read www.uukanshu.com, but there were also some scattered related reports in the previous few days.
Among them, there are many international leaders. They may do more fields, and they will make a report from a relatively high dimension. For example, the title of the report is "Recent Research Progress in Various Photovoltaic Fields".
This is only related to the field of organic photovoltaics, but not entirely the field of organic photovoltaics, so it has not been included in the special report on organic photovoltaics.
This kind of report is still useful after listening to it, and it can broaden your horizons.
As for the relatively large-scale reports in other fields, Xu Qiu intends to pick some interesting ones to listen to, and does not intend to learn more about it.
Listening to reports across large areas is not without meaning, but not great. Instead of wasting time on reports that are hardly understood, it is better to waste time on playing.
Xu Qiu put all the materials distributed into the backpack, and went to find Wu Feifei and Han Jiaying to join them.
He first came to the W area near the X area, and then saw that Wu Feifei's expression was not right, and seemed a little depressed, so he asked: "Wu Feifei, what's the matter with you?
Wu Feifei sighed lightly: "Don't mention it, I just checked the exhibition manual, perovskite is too popular, and there are reports at every time basically every day..."
"In individual time periods, there are even more than two reports at the same time..."
"My plan for a five-day trip to Phoenix is going to fall..."
"嘤嘤嘤..."
PS: Ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month. This month's monthly pass should be able to break 1,000... probably.
