A professor's rebirth: I entered Tsinghua University in 1977.

Seeing that Liu Hongyi seemed still a little "confused", Zhao Yuanfang patiently explained to him.

In Zhao Yuanfang's eyes, although Liu Hongyi was a brilliant man with extraordinary talent, he was only a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old after all, and he definitely lacked social experience.

Although it was a very good suggestion according to his original intention, it was extremely difficult to implement, basically impossible.

"Student Liu Hongyi, your suggestion is indeed excellent, but there are a few difficult issues that are difficult to resolve... The first is a policy issue. Do you understand this?"

Of course Liu Hongyi could understand.

"Yes, sir, I understand."

Liu Hongyi nodded slightly, but judging from his expression, he didn't seem to care too much about it. There should be a way to solve it.

"The second point is the issue of purchasing channels. Currently, advanced Western countries have imposed a very strict blockade on our technology. Some of the most cutting-edge scientific monographs, top journals, and research papers are all confidential, making them difficult for ordinary people to purchase. If we want to purchase them, we can only go through diplomatic and foreign trade channels, and yes, Victoria."

Victoria is a free port and there is no crime of espionage, so we naturally have personnel stationed there.

"Buying a small number of monographs and academic journals isn't a problem, but buying large quantities is very difficult. Even through diplomatic channels, there are significant restrictions and it could attract the attention of hostile forces, creating numerous problems and obstacles for us."

"We are just one school after all. Even if Principal Tai Zhengyang were to personally take action, it would probably be very difficult."

As for Zhao Yuanfang himself, or even the department, there was no need to even think about trying.

If you dare to make such a suggestion, be careful of being labeled.

What is your intention in worshipping foreign things?

Liu Hongyi nodded again.

The difficult problem raised by Zhao Yuanfang had been fully considered before he wrote the report.

But you still have to try.

Computer technology is extremely difficult if you rely on your own exploration without learning from the latest research results.

As far as Liu Hongyi knows, in the next 10 to 20 years, many of his classmates and even younger students will try every possible means to go abroad to find "shortcuts", and some of them will indeed grow into giants in the computer field.

Liu Hongyi just wants to reduce the occurrence of this situation as much as possible.

If one more of these peerless geniuses could survive, the contribution to the country would be immense.

“Third, there’s the issue of funding.”

"Academic monographs and journals are not cheap... The country's foreign exchange is extremely tight, so it's difficult to find an outlet for us..."

Zhao Yuanfang shook his head as he spoke.

Especially in the eyes of many leaders, such precious foreign exchange must be spent wisely, to buy some real machines, production lines, or high-end finished products that we cannot produce. In short, the products purchased must be able to generate benefits and bring tangible benefits.

You actually want to use such precious foreign exchange to buy some foreign books and periodicals. No matter how much you talk, your leader will not give in.

You prodigal son!

Even Principal Tai Zhengyang's attempts to beg for help were in vain.

After discussing these three major challenges, Zhao Yuanfang, worried about dampening the young man's enthusiasm, changed his tone and said, "Of course, Liu Hongyi, you have good intentions. You've only been at the school for two days, and you've come up with such insightful suggestions. It's very worthy of recognition. I hope..."

This is to say a few words of encouragement and end the conversation.

Before he could finish, Liu Hongyi interrupted him rather rudely, saying, "Teacher Zhao, I can find a way to solve the three problems you mentioned... However, I need the school to formally approve my proposal before I can proceed."

"what?"

Liu Hongyi's answer was obviously completely beyond Zhao Yuanfang's expectations, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Can you solve it?"

What the hell?

"Yes, Mr. Zhao, I can find someone. But the first step is that the school must approve it. Without the school's consent, the next step cannot be carried out."

Liu Hongyi said with certainty.

"Then tell me, what solutions do you have for these problems?"

Zhao Yuanfang became interested, but also a little confused, with a little bit of well-hidden "disbelief".

The young man lacks social experience. He thought this was a class meeting.

As long as a reasonable suggestion is made, will the higher-ups definitely approve it?

Liu Hongyi thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Zhao, I can report this situation directly to Director Shen Xian of the State Planning Commission and try to get the Commission's support."

"what?"

Zhao Yuanfang was stunned.

"In addition, Director Li Shexin of the Policy Research Office has been corresponding with me for some time now..."

Zhao Yuanfang suddenly gasped.

As a teacher at Qinghua University, Liu Hongyi understood all too well what his words meant.

"You mean you can ask Director Shen Xian and Director Li Shexin for help?"

"I can find a way to report this to them!"

Liu Hongyi said with certainty.

Zhao Yuanfang immediately became excited.

If that's the case, then there's definitely room for maneuver in this matter.

Although the country will still not spend too much foreign exchange to purchase foreign books and periodicals, even if it buys a small amount, it will be great news for Qinghua University.

Especially for computer majors.

There is a great need to learn from the world's cutting-edge scientific and technological information.

Sometimes, even a short paragraph in a research paper can be a shining guiding light for students groping forward in the darkness.

It can help people avoid many detours.

The moment of inspiration, you may be able to break through to a new realm.
