Chapter 49 Big Loss!

"It's a big loss!"

Logging in to the school's official website, Lu Zhou sighed with emotion when he saw the announcement that he didn't know when it would be updated.

Who would have thought that writing papers could also make a fortune?

It is also the effort of the leaders to hold a meeting...

The reward rules announced on the official website are as follows.

[Amount of reward = (IF+1)*5000 yuan. 】

If is well understood, it is the impact factor of the journal.

For example, the impact factor of "Theoretical and Applied Mathematics Communications" is 3.130. The school will reward him with a total of 41,300 yuan for his two mathematical papers published in this journal. And according to Professor Tang, the bonus will be given in the form of a scientific research award. According to Article 4, Item 1, of the Individual Income Tax Law, there is no need to pay tax!

As for the other 9 papers, since they were published in general journals, although they are also SCI, they also have impact factors, but sorry, they are not within the scope of the award!

Seeing this, Lu Zhou felt distressed.

Judging from the evaluation of him by the president of a listed company, these 9 papers of his are undoubtedly valuable, but in order to covet the small cheapness of the 150 yuan manuscript fee, he ended up pitting himself.

It's useless to regret now.

But thinking about it carefully, it is hard to say whether it is a loss or a profit.

If it is not published in general journals and reviewed by more professional academic editors, his paper may not be able to stand out from the many papers and pass so quickly.

The reason why he was able to get the S+ evaluation and unlock the reward tasks of the system is largely due to the speed of the general publication.

In any case, the server's money has been settled...probably?

"Elbow, what are you looking at?"

Seeing that Lu Zhou rarely went to the library for self-study, but sat in the dormitory in front of the computer screen "in a daze", Liu Rui approached curiously.

After so long, the guy's name for himself finally changed from Brother Lu.

It seems that any heat has an expiration date...

"It's nothing," Lu Zhou sighed, "I just feel sorry for my little money that flew away."

"What small money... SCI paper reward? What the hell, cheating..." Liu Rui's eyes widened and he yelled, "Then how much can you get?"

"Probably get one or two thousand."

Lu Zhou decided to be humble, so he folded in half.

In the end, I didn't expect that even if I made a discount, this guy was still frightened.

After a long silence, Liu Rui did not speak.

After a long time, he sighed and said in an infinitely melancholy tone: "Elbow, don't say anything, let's treat you tonight."

Lu Zhou thought about it and thought it made sense.

After all, it was agreed at the beginning, not to forget about wealth and honor, not to mention wealth and honor together, but a meal is still indispensable.

Although he saw Qian's eyes open a little, he was not the kind of person who was stingy.

So, he took Liu Rui to the snack street near the school gate, picked a spicy restaurant and sat down...

...

After the selected Mala Tang was served, Liu Rui, a person who didn't like drinking very much, rarely ordered two bottles of beer.

One person opened a bottle.

After Mala Tang came up, Liu Rui suddenly said, "How does it feel to stay at school during the summer vacation?"

While biting the bean stick, Lu Zhou thought about it and replied, "Is it okay? It's quite fulfilling."

"I really envy you," Liu Rui sighed, "I feel like I'm getting more and more stupid, and I can't see anything."

Seriously, he regrets signing up for this mathematical modeling contest.

Although the round of selection in the school was honored, the school arranged for teammates and teachers to train, but after the real training began, he realized how far he was from the real geniuses.

For example, the third-year senior in his group has already won the National Second Prize twice. He participated in this competition because he wanted to rush to the National First before graduation. With that great man, he is completely like a little brother holding his thighs.

However, such a great man still humbly said that he was ignorant of learning.

Later, Liu Rui heard that in addition to the teams organized by these schools, there were also a few "regular troops" organized by the hospital. It's just that those great people don't train with them, so they don't see each other normally.

Now Liu Rui understands that the team that Lu Zhou is in should be the legendary "regular army".

After knowing the news, he was both emotional and complicated.

Because the gap was so great, he even began to doubt himself, whether there was any need to be jealous of this suddenly rising roommate.

After clinking a cup with Liu Rui, Lu Zhou said casually, "You've made yourself too tired."

"There's no way, people who are better than me work so hard, you can't do it if you don't work hard." Liu Rui took a deep sip of beer, and Liu Rui let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to spit the turbid air in his chest into the darkening night sky. Drifting away in the long night.

However, Lu Zhou, who drank a little wine, did not understand his melancholy.

And when people drink, they like to talk nonsense.

"I remember...that's not what this sentence said."

Liu Rui was stunned for a moment, thinking that Lu Zhou had any ideas, he couldn't help asking seriously: "What did you say?"

Lu Zhou hiccupped and didn't think much about it: "Since people who are better than you are still working hard... Then what's the use of your efforts?"

Liu Rui: "..."

In the end, the two drank a total of seven bottles, five of which were drunk by Liu Rui alone.

...

This kid Liu Rui is not the type who can drink alcohol, and he is the kind of boring gourd who doesn't say a word when he is drunk. When he drank the last cup, he fell on the table with a thud, startling Lu Zhou and also the boss who sold Mala Tang, thinking he had entered fake wine.

Later, when the kid was turned over and found that he was talking nonsense there, Lu Zhou and the shop owner were relieved.

After paying the bill, he finally carried Liu Rui, who had been drinking crookedly, back to the bedroom. Lu Zhou really didn't have the strength to lift him up the ladder, so he pulled a mat from his cabinet and spread it on the ground. Gave him a floor.

Then he waited for him to lie down on the mat, and covered him with a blanket.

Doing things to do this step, but also no one.

Turning on the air conditioner and sitting on a chair, Lu Zhou unscrewed the mineral water bottle and took a sip, letting out a long breath.

The journey has worn him out.

Liu Rui is a good boy. As soon as he lay down, he started snoring and slept soundly.

"Waking up tomorrow morning won't kill you with a headache."

Lu Zhou shook his head, turned on the computer, logged into the online shopping website, and began to search for a suitable server.

According to Lao Tang, the school's finance department will put the money on the card tomorrow at the latest. Make your choice today, and you can place an order as soon as the money arrives in your account tomorrow.

If possible, he would like to buy a better quality one.

Not entirely for the ticket grabbing app made by practicing hands, but for the task reward for unlocking "Artificial Intelligence LV0".

What happens when I upgrade artificial intelligence LV0 to LV1 with points?

This will be the first branch technology unlocked after he gets the system.

In this regard, Lu Zhou's heart is full of expectations.

However, when he saw the price of the server, his face turned black.

"Dell... 2U rack-mounted chassis, 56 cores, 112 threads, 256G memory, with twelve 8T hard boards... 270,000! Let's go."

"Lenovo IBM, dual-controller storage array, using Storwize real-time compression technology, 64G cache, 8 8GB optical fiber ports, 24 3.5-inch disks! Quote...40,000? This seems good...hold the grass, I saw a zero! Can't be bothered."

Turned the page, it's all this price.

I'm sooooooooooooo...

Why is it so expensive?

Lu Zhou sorted them by price, and found that there are servers with a low price of tens of thousands of yuan, but it is not known whether they can meet the operation. Moreover, it is impossible for him to use all his money to buy servers.

It costs money to keep the server running!

When he couldn't make up his mind, Lu Zhou suddenly thought of the computer science student in the group.

Yeah, why don't you ask him?

Seeing that it was still early, Lu Zhou immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call.
