Chapter 144: Chapter 89 Designating a Thesis Advisor_3
After sending this message, there were two more that got sent without stopping, then there was about ten seconds of calm before it suddenly erupted again.
"What? Are you crazy, or is the boss crazy?"
"Old Qin, this joke isn’t funny at all."
"Qiao Yu, right? I admit he’s quite strong, but guiding us to write papers? Are you serious?"
This time, even the Doctor, who has been silent, jumped out and sent a row of question marks.
Qin Jingru saw the Doctor appear and immediately tagged him.
"Doctor, please, save us, help persuade the boss. The boss is asking us to find a way to ask Qiao Yu to help review our papers. How can we do that? Or you can help review it for us!"
"Wait a minute!" He sent these two words and then stopped replying.
A group of conflicted people in the chat started tagging Qin Jingru like crazy. He had to explain again and again that neither the boss nor he was crazy, it’s all true, and they should just accept it!
Fortunately, five minutes later, the Doctor appeared again, and the first thing he said was: "Xiao Qin is telling the truth!"
Now, no one was questioning it anymore, though a wave of confused, crying, and perplexed emojis flooded the screen.
The second message directly tagged Qin Jingru: "Are you in your dorm?"
"Yes!"
"Is anyone there?"
"No one’s here, my roommate left a day early for National Day, went home."
"Let’s not talk on WeChat, everyone should hurry over to Xiao Qin’s dorm for a small meeting! I remember you’re in dorm 1, right?"
"Yes, 307."
...
In less than ten minutes, everyone gathered in Qin Jingru’s dorm.
Yu University’s two-person dorm room was simply and warmly arranged, with two beds against either side of the walls as you enter, separated by desks, bookshelves, and wardrobes—perfect for a meeting.
The brothers could sit on the beds on either side, and the Doctor could sit on a chair in the middle.
While other brothers were on their way, Qin Jingru found two clean bed sheets in the cupboard and laid them over his and his roommate’s beds.
Once everything was set up, the dorm quickly became lively, with those who arrived first surrounding Qin Jingru with questions.
"Old Qin, what exactly is happening today? Tell us in detail."
"Yeah, why did the supervisor suddenly pull this stunt?"
"Has Qiao Yu ever written a paper? What’s the supervisor thinking, asking him to guide us?"
"..."
What could Qin Jingru say?
"That Qiao Yu did write a paper, but let’s not talk about the rest... let’s wait for the Doctor to talk."
Finally, the Doctor walked into the dorm, and the other brothers quieted down, sitting obediently on the beds. The Doctor extended his hand towards Qin Jingru and said: "The boss said he gave you the paper revised by Qiao Yu. Let me see it first."
The dorm fell silent, and all eyes focused on Qin Jingru.
Qin Jingru blushed but had no choice. He nervously walked over to the desk and retrieved the paper deliberately hidden on the bookshelf, handing it to the Doctor. freewebnoveℓ.com
The Doctor didn’t bother talking, just sat on a chair, and started flipping through the paper.
He flipped through it quickly. The paper wasn’t long, and combined with a list of references, it was only ten pages.
About ten minutes later, under the eager gaze of the younger brothers, the Doctor reached the last page. He didn’t say anything, just glanced at Qin Jingru, and then casually handed Qin Jingru’s paper to a brother next to him: "You all pass it around first."
Then he asked Qin Jingru: "Do you also have the abstract and introduction of Qiao Yu’s paper?"
Qin Jingru said nothing, stood up silently, and casually threw two pages on the desk.
The Doctor took these two pages, glanced at them, and sighed: "It’s in English? The boss didn’t ask you to write in English, right?"
This time, everyone truly fell silent.
The Doctor said nothing more, read it carefully again, then handed it to the brother sitting closest on the other bed: "You all pass it around. Don’t waste too much time. If there’s anything you don’t understand, someone should look it up in the dictionary. It’s okay, we’re all brothers from the same sect; it’s not embarrassing."
So only Qin Jingru sat silently, watching the Doctor, whose face was as calm as water, thinking who knows what, while the sound of paper rustling around made him feel terribly embarrassed.
In nearly twenty minutes of sitting on pins and needles in silence, both his paper and Qiao Yu’s introduction had been passed around to both sides of the brothers. Originally, everyone wanted to return it to the Doctor, but he waved it off, and it ended up back in Qin Jingru’s hands.
"Does anyone still have doubts about the level of Qiao Yu’s paper and paper guidance?" the Doctor asked calmly.
The brothers looked at each other, but no one spoke.
"On the way here, I also talked to the boss; if you feel your paper writing skills are up to the standard, or if you can write an article on any open problem and submit it, you don’t have to worry about talking to the small director.
Oh, Director Xue even lowered the requirements; you don’t have to submit to a C journal, just getting into a C expansion is fine. As long as you get one in, he guarantees that you’ll graduate on time. If you can’t meet that level, just honestly follow the boss’s instructions."
Alright, since the Doctor said this, the brothers really couldn’t argue, because their Doctor not only published in C journals but had even published three, with one being from his master’s period.
After a brief pause, the Doctor finally asked: "Does anyone have any more questions?"
After waiting a few seconds and seeing no one speak, the Doctor stood up: "If there are no questions, let’s go with what the boss said. It’s getting late, I’ll leave now; you all discuss amongst yourselves."
