Chapter 876: Done in an Hour

Even though Lu Zhou wasn’t familiar with economics, at a place like Princeton, any field of study related to mathematics more or less would be studied by mathematicians.

Especially when it came to economics.

It was very difficult to create novel economics theories using traditional research methods.

Therefore, if one wanted to create outstanding economics research, mathematics was their only way. Even though traditional economists had criticized this approach, it had helped countless students graduate with a degree.

In fact, mathematics was a life-saving tool for any field that required quantitative analysis. It could extract value from seemingly useless data. It all depended on how well one applied mathematical tools to their own area.

Hence, even though Lu Zhou wasn’t interested in economics, whenever he was at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study cafe, he would talk about some of the more simple mathematics problems with economics professors.

After being at Princeton for many years, Lu Zhou had interacted with countless big names in economics.

Not only had he talked with Nobel Prize laureates, but he was even friends with Nature and Science editors.

Anyone with a normal IQ wouldn’t want to piss off Lu Zhou by withholding a master’s student’s degree…

As for why Lu Zhou wanted to be the corresponding author…

Not because he cared about his name on the thesis, he just didn’t want Xiao Tong’s supervisor to take advantage of her.

Even though Xiao Tong was still a little worried, seeing how confident her brother was, she didn’t argue anymore. After talking about their parents for a while, Lu Zhou felt hungry and hung up the phone.

Lu Zhou closed his laptop and took out his phone to order take out. He then opened Xiao Tong’s unfinished thesis and began reading it.

“Let me have a look…”

Even though he wasn’t very familiar with the Bewley model, anything related to mathematics was a piece of cake for him.

After all, no matter how complex the model was, it was less complicated and chaotic than a plasma turbulence system. The Bewley model was much simpler compared to the Navier–Stokes equations and the plasma turbulence system.

Lu Zhou could confidently say he was the world-leading expert on functional analysis.

Occasionally thinking about simpler problems was good for his research.

His takeout hadn’t arrived yet, so he decided to kill this time by doing some relaxing problems.

With a pen in one hand and a mouse in another, Lu Zhou quickly read through the thesis and began writing down calculations.

“It’s an easy question, but interesting… Who did I talk to about this problem? I don’t remember.

“Why is she using the Lagrange multiplier method to optimize each processing step?” Lu Zhou said as he read through the calculation part of the thesis.

A few seconds went by.

“Just use the endogenous grid method…” Lu Zhou muttered to himself as he wrote down a line of calculations.

“The endogenous grid method is a little cumbersome. Optimizing the original mathematical model can save at least 20% of the calculations… Maybe even 25%.”

This problem wasn’t even considered a problem.

Lu Zhou was inspired right at the finish line.

He wrote down the last line of equations and leaned back in his chair. He directed his laptop camera to his notes.

“Xiao Ai, tidy this for me.

“Also use the Bewley model to compile a new algorithm for my model.”

Xiao Ai: [Okay~! (✿゚▽゚)]

Xiao Ai was just as fast as Lu Zhou, it scanned the notes and soon sorted out the mathematical model. It even corrected some of the mistakes Lu Zhou might have made.

Lu Zhou looked at the LaTeX, and once he made sure there were no mistakes, he nodded at the computer.

The model was then uploaded to the quantum computer located underground at the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study. A few seconds later, the quantum computer finished calculating.

Xiao Ai: [Algorithm compilation complete! (๑•̀ᄇ•́) و✧]

Xiao Ai: [Using 12,777 sets of random parameters, the numerical calculation results of the improved mathematical model are consistent with the original model. Dispersion is reduced by 13%, computing efficiency is increased by 21%. ♪ (^ ∇ ^ *)]

He didn’t know what dispersion meant, but the 21% increase in computing efficiency was what he had expected.

Is it kind of cheating to use a quantum computer on a master’s thesis?

Screw it, who cares.

It’s for my sister.

Besides, electricity is cheap anyway…

Lu Zhou looked at his computer and said, “Send an email, attach the mathematical model and algorithm.”

Xiao Ai: [Okay, Master! (๑•̀ᄇ•́)و✧]

Lu Zhou looked at the string of texts and suddenly remembered something. “Oh yeah, remember not to use emoticons in the email, just send it normally.”

Xiao Ai: [Σ (っ°Д°;) っ]

Lu Zhou: “…?”

Even though Lu Zhou didn’t know what this emoticon meant, he didn’t want to ruin his handsome and reliable image by sending his little sister an emoticon.

Five minutes went by.

He received a reply from Xiao Tong.

The email was very short, it only contained three symbols…

[? ? ?]

Lu Zhou looked at the three symbols and smirked.

Xiao Tong probably didn’t expect me to solve her problem in one hour.

“Oh yeah, it’s been an hour, where is my takeout?”

Lu Zhou rubbed his stomach and took out his phone. He was about to call the delivery driver when he saw that his takeout was delivered twenty minutes ago.

The f*ck?

Who took my takeout?

He was so concentrated on the problem he didn’t look at his phone at all.

Lu Zhou was muddled. Suddenly, he heard the office door knock. Wang Peng walked in with a plastic bag.

“Your orange chicken on rice,” Wang Peng said as he placed the plastic bag on the table. He sighed and said, “Can we talk about something? If you want to eat anything, I’ll buy it for you. Stop ordering take out, you’re just giving me more trouble.”

“It’s just easier to order on my phone.” Lu Zhou took out the styrofoam box from the plastic bag and said, “Speaking of which, why did you pick up the food?”

Wang Peng: “It’s safer this way.”

Lu Zhou: “So, my security level has increased again?”

Wang Peng nodded.

“Yeah.”

Wang Peng had no reason to lie about this.

When the controllable fusion reactor research was at a critical stage, the local military increased the security level for Lu Zhou’s house. That didn’t go away until the Pangu fusion reactor was connected to the power grid.

Even though this situation wasn’t as extreme as the controllable fusion reactor, the carbon-based chips determined the future of the Chinese semiconductor industry, so they were being extra diligent.

While opening the disposable chopsticks, Lu Zhou looked at Wang Peng.

Wang Peng was a little confused by this look, so Lu Zhou coughed and asked, “You didn’t… test it by… taking a bite, right?”

Lu Zhou was a little germaphobic…

Sharing food like hotpot was fine, but outside of that, he wasn’t comfortable with people touching his food.

“Of course not!” Wang Peng was astounded, and he said, “It’s the 21st century, who does that anymore? Don’t worry, Doctor Yan did a simple test on it, it’s definitely safe.”

Lu Zhou: “…”

F*ck sake!

You did a germ test on my food?! No wonder it took so long to get here!

I was so close to leaving the driver a bad review!

After hearing Wang Peng’s explanation, Lu Zhou didn’t know what to do.

Doctor Yan did test it…

But she’s done dodgy things in the past…

Lu Zhou still remembered when she asked for a sip of his coke a year ago.

Actually, she didn’t ask, she just took it.

Lu Zhou looked at the styrofoam box and began to think.

Should I eat it or not?

What do I do…

Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

学霸的黑科技系统
Status: Ongoing Author: ,

After suffering from a heat stroke while working under the scorching heat of summer, Lu Zhou, a hardworking but poor university student, somehow becomes the owner of an advanced technological system. With the cheat given by the system, his university life changes overnight.

A Master’s degree? Easy.

PhD? Not a problem.

From a nobody, he quickly becomes a huge celebrity in the world of science. With the missions given by the system, he is on his way to winning a Nobel Prize.

“System, can points be exchanged for money?”

“No.”

“F**k, what use are you then!?”

“This system will make you the ultimate scholar, the kind that lords over all of humanity. What use will money be to you?”
