A figure quickly ran out of the dormitory building, ran to a big tree and took off his mask.
With a sound of "yue", he started retching.
Behind him, Xu Yun, Director Guan and others also walked out of the dormitory building with tired faces.
Three hours ago, after arriving at the 'crime scene', Xu Yun and others immediately started cleaning up.
Compared with the complex and numerous scenes, their method of cleaning up the scene is very simple:
The Agricultural Science Institute on campus provided a large vacuum cleaner for locust prevention and control. Xu Yun and the others retained the front suction port, and the rear half of the storage box was transformed into an easy-to-untie sack, which they breathed directly onto the ground.
He breathed in the cockroach corpse.
When one sack is full, it is put aside tightly, and then another one is added, again and again to contain the cockroach corpses.
Of course.
This process seems simple to say, but it is still very challenging to do.
After all, the bodies of many cockroaches are no longer complete. From time to time, some white eggs or sticky liquid can be seen, which is quite disgusting even through protective clothing.
Occasionally, there will be a few tenacious cockroaches that will rise up and come straight towards your face.
Even if there is a mask to block this situation, it still has a strong impact on ordinary people.
Therefore, Xu Yun and others worked hard for three hours before finally removing the cockroach corpses. From the perspective of the entire process, this was only the first step.
The subsequent sterilization, cleaning and placement of students are also quite troublesome problems.
As for the results of Xu Yun and others?
Have you seen the fifty-seven sacks over there? (Note: I called a friend with a Ph.D. who studies insects. He said that a 180-pound sack can hold about 1,500 American cockroaches.
, so fifty-seven bags should be reasonable.)
Xu Yun left the rest of the transfer matters to Director Guan, and he quickly walked towards Tian Liangwei who was waiting aside.
At this time, Tian Liangwei was chatting with someone. Xu Yun greeted him first and back:
"Teacher, I'm out."
Then he looked at the man next to the teacher, hesitated for a few seconds and said:
"Hello, Principal Zhang."
The full name of President Zhang mentioned by Xu Yun is Zhang Rui. He is the dean of the School of Mathematical Sciences and concurrently serves as the executive vice president of HKUST.
Zhang Rui is also one of the local mathematicians who have the best chance of winning the Wolf Prize today. He graduated from the School of Finance at Zhangshuo University.
Therefore, students in the Mathematical College generally call him Dean Zhang, while students in the Foreign College call him Principal Zhang.
Zhang Rui's duties are mainly responsible for miscellaneous daily life on campus, that is, the food, clothing, housing and transportation of students and employees. He is also called the steward of HKUST by some faculty and staff.
There is such a big incident happening in Building 14 right now, involving the placement of students, so it is not surprising that Zhang Rui, the main responsible person, appears here.
After Xu Yun finished greeting, Tian Liangwei glanced at Zhang Rui and asked:
"Xiao Xu, has everything been cleaned up in the dormitory?"
"Well, it's all cleaned up, and the only thing left is to disinfect it."
"Then can you hold on now? Do you want to rest for a while?"
Xu Yun was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood:
"I'm not tired or not, just say what you have to say."
There was something in his tutor's words, and Zhang Rui was also present, so the content of the next conversation was self-evident.
Describe it in four words
Accountability and punishment!
Thinking of this, Xu Yun couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart.
Although strictly speaking, the main responsibility for this accident lies with the faulty operation of Chang Licheng and Ye Guohong.
But if we really want to hold people accountable, he, the initiator, will certainly not be able to escape.
Once the punishment is imposed, some subsequent matters may be more troublesome.
Of course.
It's not like Xu Yun was completely without confidence and allowed himself to be manipulated by others.
Although the accident on the 14th was beyond everyone's expectation, it was a coincidence that proved how powerful the effect of imidacloprid is. It is impossible for HKUST not to see its commercial value.
Therefore, if there is any financial penalty, the worst that can happen is that you can advance some of your future income.
It’s just that most of the time it’s not a good feeling in terms of face, and you might get criticized or something.
Just as Xu Yun's mind was racing, Tian Liangwei spoke with a serious expression:
"Xiao Xu, you are a witness to this incident. You should know that in the few hours from early morning to now, the University of Science and Technology has suffered a loss of manpower and material resources. Outside the campus, it has faced a certain amount of public opinion and social pressure, and even involved
It’s a matter of school image.”
Xu Yun listened quietly, waiting for the next punishment results.
"So after the unanimous decision of the school leaders, we finally designated a solution to carry out a campus-level cockroach eradication in several designated places in the East District, and broadcast it live on the entire network!"
"No problem, I accept the school's treatment of me"
Xu Yun was nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice, as if he was taking all the responsibilities, but as he was talking, he suddenly felt something was wrong:
"Um, wait, what did you say?"
Tian Liangwei's expression finally stopped tightening this time, and he burst out laughing:
"I said that the school is going to carry out another large-scale sterilization. It will be broadcast live on the entire network. You guys, hurry up and produce some fifth-generation glue bait for me in the past few days. Do you understand me?"
Looking at the confused Xu Yun, Zhang Rui also laughed and added cheerfully:
"Comrade Xiao Xu, actually at the beginning, the school leaders did have some headaches about this matter.
Cockroaches flocking to the dormitory are not negative news, but they obviously have nothing to do with positive news.
At the same time, if you don't refute the rumors, a bunch of people say you're pretending to be dead and don't dare to respond. When it comes to criticism, they start to speculate on conspiracy theories. As for refuting the rumors, they don't know how to make an announcement.
So after several leaders put it together, they concluded that since there were so many cockroaches in Building 14 alone, we might as well do a targeted disinfecting in the East District.
By the way, it will be broadcast live on the entire network and convert a wave of traffic.
In the end, this should be considered a positive topic, and it might be useful for next year’s admissions. Who can refuse a campus without cockroaches, don’t you think so?”
After listening to Zhang Rui's words, Xu Yun immediately stayed at the scene.
According to the teacher and Zhang Rui's wishes
Not only is HKUST not prepared to punish itself, it is even prepared to make a big backhand?
After a while, a rather complicated emotion suddenly surged into his heart, and he was filled with emotion.
Friends who have studied at HKUST should all know that the school motto of HKUST has a total of eight words:
Red expertise and expertise go hand in hand, integrating theory and practice.
Li here refers to theory, which not only refers to book knowledge, but also refers to scientific values, outlook on life and world view. It also refers to principles, but actually refers to practice and reality.
Concepts must be combined with reality and in line with the times, and cannot be complacent.
This decision by Zhang Rui or the school leaders is undoubtedly the best interpretation of the school motto.
Xu Yun thought of a piece of news he had seen before:
About a year or two ago, a freshman girl from Shangdu Normal University drew 30,000 kilograms of watermelon during a Hema Fresh event. She originally planned to distribute it to the entire school. At that time, the school’s Tieba, Weibo and Penguin Group
Everyone was discussing this matter, and even some classmates from the surrounding schools said they were going to 'grab watermelons' that day.
The results of it?
Such a good traffic monetization activity was abruptly rejected by the school during the delivery process. The girls could only give watermelons to bus drivers across the city.
At that time, Shangdu Normal University was criticized for being criticized for this incident and became a hot topic. In desperation, it had no choice but to initiate demotion and review.
A God-given opportunity to earn steady traffic suddenly turned into negative marketing. In the end, when the first-class admission score increased the next year, the provincial admission score of Shangdu Normal University dropped by 23 points.
But today's HKUST has shown its unique side.
Not only was Xu Yun exempted from the punishment he had received, but he also doubled his backhand, using offense instead of defense, intending to make big news.
True.
Issues such as the location of follow-up activities, prevention and control methods, and how not to affect students still need to be discussed extremely seriously, but judging from the actions of HKUST alone, it is undoubtedly a very popular approach.
For such an open school, no wonder so many people yearn for it!
