Chapter 154: Chapter 150: Weighing pros and cons, cooperation between two universities (Second update)_1

An outstanding athlete like Yang Chen.

Ding Yue thought he was quite worth developing.

And.

If Ding Yue remembered it right, he seemed to still have a few [Sports Attribute Cards]?

He obtained these [Sports Attribute Cards] when he completed the military training mission.

At that time, he did not use any [Sports Attribute Card], because, after all, the school did not have any particularly outstanding athletes then.

He did use one of the rewards, a [Physical Fitness Scroll +1], which was used by the entire school.

Ding Yue had already used it at the military training graduation ceremony then.

That’s why the physical fitness levels of the students from Mist City Arts and Science University are still quite good.

Now.

The three [Sports Attribute Cards] seem to have found their purpose.

It is the Yang Chen right in front of Ding Yue.

He is a top-notch student from the School of Sports, who has won a scholarship, is from a poor family, but has a rich ambition.

He also manages to find any spare time to work and earn money.

There’s no reason not to support a student like this!

"Yang Chen, I think you should definitely give short-distance races a shot. The National University Games require qualifications, right?"

Ding Yue encouraged Yang Chen.

"Principal Ding, to sign up for the National University Games, you need to achieve qualifying results in short-distance races, which I have achieved. And the teachers of the School of Sports have also helped me sign up for the University Games, so the results should be out soon."

Yang Chen scratched his head with a sincere smile.

"Great, it is held in August in the Summer season right?" If Ding Yue remembered correctly, the National University Games were held in the summer.

Either in July or in August.

"Yes, in August." Yang Chen replied.

"Great, if the registration is successful, work hard and strive to bring honour to the school!" Ding Yue praised Yang Chen.

Ding Yue hadn’t considered growing the sports department before, but Yang Chen was an exceptional student.

In that case, why not give it a try.

"System, does a gold medal in the National University Sports Games count as University Honour?" Ding asked the system immediately.

"Yes!"

After getting the reply from the system, Ding Yue couldn’t help but show a faint smile, and then switched the interface to the item bar.

Using the three [Sports Attribute Cards] on Yang Chen is more than fitting.

"Use one [Sports Attribute Card] on Yang Chen."

Ding!

"Host, please choose the related sports attribute——"

In front of Ding Yue, many sports item attributes appeared including swimming, basketball, soccer, badminton, weightlifting, high jump, gymnastics, sprinting, table tennis etc.

Ding Yue felt like the system had listed all of the sports.

But Ding Yue knew it very well, a sports attribute should not be assigned casually.

Since Yang Chen’s strengths lie in sprinting and basketball, then he should be endowed the BUFF of the [Sports Attribute Card] in these two areas. Otherwise, adding other attributes will not have any significant effect.

"First, add a sprinting sports attribute to Yang Chen!"

Ding Yue decided.

After all, Yang Chen has already signed up for the sprinting event at the National University Sports Games and he is skilled in the sport. At a time like this, adding a sprinting sports attribute will undoubtedly make him even better!

Ding!

"Congratulations to the host for successfully giving student Yang Chen the [Sports Attribute Card (Sprinting)], increasing sprinting attribute by 10 points."

[Sports Attribute Card] used successfully.

Yang Chen didn’t detect a thing, but Ding Yue already saw that the [Sports Attribute Card], like the scroll last time, turned into a glowing light that entered into Yang Chen’s body.

Ding Yue wasn’t sure how powerful the effect of a [Sports Attribute Card] enhancing Yang Chen’s sprinting by 10 points is.

But adding attribute is definitely better than not.

However.

Ding Yue learned that one [Sports Attribute Card] can only be used to add one sports attribute per student.

A second one cannot be used.

In other words.

Only one can be used per person. Ding Yue originally planned to give Yang Chen another [Sports Attribute Card] to enhance his basketball attribute.

It looks like there’s no chance for that now.

However, adding sprinting also works. I hope Yang Chen can successfully enter the National University Sports Games, and bring back an honor for the school.

With this, Ding Yue can now complete one of the three university honors necessary to upgrade Mist City Arts and Science University to "Well-known".

Shortly after Ding Yue increased the effect of Yang Chen’s [Sports Attribute Card], his cell phone rang.

Yang Chen, on the other hand, is quite perceptive: "Principal Ding, I’m off to work, thank you for the university’s cultivation!"

After saying that.

Yang Chen turned and walked toward the construction site.

Ding Yue glanced at the incoming call display.

It was a call from Professor Zhou Wen of Jiangnan University of Science and Technology.

These days, Ding Yue has been waiting for news from Professor Zhou Wen.

Ever since Professor Zhou Wen, together with Professor Shen Congde and Professor Wang Shangzhong, last visited the Advanced Semiconductor Physics Laboratory at Mist City Arts and Science University, they have been discussing the potential cooperation between the Physics Department of Jiangnan University of Science and Technology and Mist City Arts and Science University.

If the authorities at Jiangnan University of Science and Technology agree, Professors Zhou Wen, Shen Congde, and Wang Shangzhong can come to teach at Mist City Arts and Science University and participate in the study of gallium nitride semiconductors.

By then, Ding Yue’s [University Professors] task may be successfully completed.

"Hello, Professor Zhou."

Ding Yue quickly answered the call.

"Hello, Principal Ding, I have good news for you." Professor Zhou Wen didn’t beat around the bush and said straightforwardly: "After several meetings between our Physics Department and the university, we have decided to establish a cooperative relationship with your Physics Department."

"Really? That’s great."

Ding Yue was indeed quite pleased when he heard this news from Professor Zhou Wen.

After all, Ding Yue has had doubts about whether this would work out.

Now that the matter is finally settled, and Jiangnan University of Science and Technology has agreed, it’s good that Mist City Arts and Science University, a private university, can establish some connection with a major university.

The cooperation between the physics departments of the two universities is undoubtedly the result of careful consideration by Jiangnan University of Science and Technology and Profeessor Zhou Wen.

Otherwise.

How could a prestigious university with a solid foundation like Jiangnan University of Science and Technology take interest in Mist City Arts and Science University, a privately-run university that’s less than two years old?

They are primarily interested in the Advanced Semiconductor Physics Laboratory at Mist City Arts and Science University.

But that’s okay.

Each takes what they need, and this was Ding Yue’s plan from the start.

The Physics Department of Jiangnan University of Science and Technology can use the Advanced Semiconductor Physics Laboratory at Mist City Arts and Science University for their research.

This may provide an opportunity to make a significant breakthrough in the domestic development of gallium nitride semiconductor materials.

In return, Ding Yue will gain three professors of physics.

If his Mist City Arts and Science University has a master’s degree authorization point, that would be even better. That’s because Ding Yue could directly apply for graduate study at his own university, thus eliminating the need to go to places like Qinghua and Yancheng University.

It’s not that Ding Yue looks down upon Qinghua and Yancheng University, it’s just that he feels it would be better to stay at his own university during the postgraduate phase.

After all, Ding Yue has the system at hand, so researching whatever he wants during the graduate phase would be a breeze, right?

And it’s very likely that Ding Yue will be researching semiconductor materials in his graduate phase.

After all, Ding Yue’s graduation thesis is about gallium nitride semiconductor materials. If he’s going to research semiconductor materials, then it’s better to stay at his own Mist City Arts and Science University, because it has a top-notch laboratory.

"Principal Ding, with this, we can start deeper cooperation. Professor Shen, Professor Wang and I can teach at Mist City Arts and Science University, push the development of your Physics Department, and meanwhile, the three of us old men can work with you on research related to gallium nitride semiconductor materials."

Professor Zhou Wen is indeed a seemingly foolish but wise person.

He understands the dynamics within this situation very clearly, and he is also willing to teach at Mist City Arts and Science University.

Because he wants to use the Advanced Semiconductor Physics Laboratory at Mist City Arts and Science University to research gallium nitride semiconductor materials.

"You’ll be most welcome."

Ding Yue said honestly.

Mist City Arts and Science University really welcomes Professors Zhou Wen, Shen Congde, and Wang Shangzhong.

Because what Ding Yue cares more about is the reward of the [University Professors] task, the tempting second-level University Treasure Chest!

The [2nd-level University Treasure Chest] is obviously going to offer better rewards than the previous [1st-level University Treasure Chest].

As a fan of opening treasure chests, Ding Yue is very curious about what good items he could get from a [2nd-level University Treasure Chest].

Hopefully it’s something good.

Otherwise, if Ding Yue went through the trouble of recruiting more than five professors and the reward he received was average, he would feel like he had suffered a major loss.

"About the specifics of the cooperation, should I let the dean of our Physics Department contact Dean Pang Jianbo from your Physics Department?"

"Sure."

Ding Yue would certainly not personally handle the cooperation negotiations.

This is a collaboration between his university’s Physics Department and the Physics Department of Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, so naturally, it’s the responsibility of their department head, Pang Jianbo.

Otherwise, what use would be a department head?

"So Professor Zhou, when will you, Professor Shen, and Professor Wang arrive?" Ding Yue asked about the main matter.

Because only when the three professors come to Mist City Arts and Science University and sign their teaching contracts, would they truly become professors of Mist City Arts and Science University.

Only then can the task [University Professors] be considered completed.
