Super God-Level Top Student

Chapter 238: Its Flaws Do Not Obscure Its Merits_3



Xu Dajiang swept his arm grandly, his voice lively with excitement. Xu is truly not short on money these days. With more achievements, naturally, there's more research and development funding allocated. Plus, after the School of Mathematics drastically cut various stipends for international students—especially since the incident last time—Xu Dajiang didn't just cut stipends, he also hiked up the tuition fees for international students, yet the number didn't decrease, so of course, he's making a fortune. Furthermore, with Qiao Ze setting a shining example in the academy, the professors have been much more disciplined when applying for projects. In the past, everyone thought they were the most important, expecting their projects to be prioritized... But over the past year, many projects that could have been applied for without hesitation in the past are now deemed unsuitable for public viewing, so they're not even brought to the academy for application, which saves a good sum of money. With money at hand, naturally, there's a sense of grandeur. Next semester, the stipends for research and doctoral students at the School of Mathematics could be raised again. The recruitment office will cooperate accordingly, and there's no need to skimp on the benefits that should be given. Of course, this is also beneficial for Yu Chenggong. A recruitment office director who looks out for the welfare of his subordinates will surely be more cherished. When Xu Dajiang is feeling generous, he naturally won't hold back. So he immediately agreed, "Alright, I get what you mean, I'll send out a notice once I get back." After that, Yu Chenggong turned to Qiao Ze and said, "However, I also have a small request, Professor Qiao. Dou Dou should be able to produce a few more units, right? Could we borrow one for the recruitment office to use? Having Dou Dou perform during a presentation would surely have a sensational effect." Unlike Xu Dajiang, who only considers the School of Mathematics, Yu Chenggong, as the director of the recruitment office, has to consider the entire university. The recruitment office can't focus solely on the School of Mathematics. The traditional strong majors at Xilin University of Technology are actually in engineering, with disciplines involved in aerospace, aeronautics, and maritime mechanics being Xilin's real strengths. Although Dou Dou isn't created by the school, outsiders are unaware of these details. Not to mention that it was designed by Qiao Ze. If Dou Dou could be used in promotional campaigns, that would be a real all-around crush. Huaqing, Yanbei, what are they compared to this? While others still rely on people for recruitment, our Xilin University of Technology is already promoting with self-developed intelligent robots that are more human-like than others. Who could withstand that? Really, just after stepping through the door and interacting with Dou Dou, Yu Chenggong had already started to hatch this plan. It's only April now, just the right time to heat up the recruitment drive. Borrowing a Dou Dou, assigning it the role of Xilin University of Technology's Chief Recruitment Officer, and laying out a list of key recruitment cities, the recruitment staff could start a nationwide tour through various high schools alongside Dou Dou. With more than sixty days left, it shouldn't be a problem to visit a few key recruitment cities. And maybe assign someone to do photography and another for video editing, recording daily school presentations and uploading them to the recruitment office's official short video account—Yu Chenggong is certain it would be a hit. After all, he's a middle-aged man, and even he was amazed after speaking just a few words with Dou Dou. He doesn't believe those teenagers won't like it. Not to mention the strength represented by designing and producing such a robot. It's like telling everyone directly, "Come to Xi Gong University, and you'll learn how to create and optimize something like this." Yu Chenggong can barely imagine how attractive that would be. As for whether Dou Dou might say something inappropriate at recruitment events? Yu Chenggong isn't too worried. It's all programming, after all. He believes Qiao Ze definitely has a solution. Even if it does say something off-script, who's going to argue with a robot? Not to mention Dou Dou's 150 million followers and the considerable power of 'its dad.' Prioritizing the enactment of an "Artificial Intelligence Protection Law" is the real deal... "Having Dou Dou assist with recruitment?" Qiao Ze furrowed his brows slightly. Concerned about the degree to which Dou Dou's database had been corrupted, he felt the suggestion was somewhat unreliable. Seeing Qiao Ze's hesitation, Yu Chenggong became anxious. To reassure him, Chen hinted, both verbally and otherwise, that Yu's time as the director of recruitment wouldn't last much longer. At most, things would change by next year. Although Yu didn't worry about his career due to his ties with Qiao, if he could achieve an impressive performance, there'd be more to consider when making a move. After all, Yu's situation is different from that of Xu Dajiang and Li Jiangao. He's just over forty, at the peak of his vigor, with ambitions for advancement. His relationship with Qiao is not as solid as Li Jian Gao's. Li Jian has practically won without fighting because Qiao is a talent unearthed by Professor Li, and Yu has only played a supporting role. So, he must make an effort to strive. The position of recruitment office director is just an ordinary mid-level post in a university. There are plenty of higher administrative positions above this one. Any deputy position in a department is a step up, and a chief position is also an elevation. But given the chance, who wouldn't want to jump directly to a vice-chancellor position? Even if it's the last in rank, and someone like him with no research experience has almost no chance of advancing further at Xilin, if there's an opportunity to jump to the top, who would want to waste a dozen years? Yu Chenggong has always been astute. When an opportunity presents itself, he will never let it slip by. "Professor Qiao, you must trust me, I've been working in recruitment for over a decade and have always been on the frontline. I know better than most what students like these days. Dou Dou is definitely up to the task."
