"Hey, isn't that Su Xiaomu? Why is he coming to school?"
"Why is he still the same as before? Isn't he confident about his current influence?"
"Oh my god, I can actually see Su Xiaomu!"
"So handsome, he looks like he's shining!"
"Don't you think Su Xiaomu is here to take the final exam too?"
"Oh my god? He still needs to come to take the final exam? Is this crazy?"
"..."
After Su Xiaomu's car appeared in a low-key manner on the Huatu campus, discussion was inevitable.
You must know that banner shops with Su Xiaomu’s name are now open on the campus of Huatuo!
You know, even now, the most popular headline on Weibo in China is still the word Su Xiaomu.
Su Xiaomu never paid much attention to these opinions. According to the notice he received, he went to his examination room to take the final exam in the first semester of his junior year.
Almost at the same time as Su Xiaomu walked into the examination room, the dean, vice principal and department chair all arrived.
Su Xiaomu: "..."
"Hello, classmate Su." The vice-principal wanted to stop him for a moment at first, but then he realized that what he saw was a myth, and he immediately put down his airs and smiled in a very friendly manner.
"Hello, principal." Su Xiaomu greeted with a smile.
"Hello, dean, hello director."
He did not take the initiative to ask why these people appeared in the classroom.
Although the thing on the surface is just one thing, come and see him.
The vice-principal thought for a moment: "I don't know if it's inconvenient for you, Mr. Su, so please come and sit in our office for a while."
Su Xiaomu thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
He knew that his exam was probably in trouble.
Fortunately, he even made a special trip to school just to prepare for the exam.
Not long after, several people sat down in a spacious conference room.
"Student Su, it's like this. Your achievements in the field of computing science and your efforts in the field of artificial intelligence have gone beyond the scope of undergraduates and even doctoral students. We don't think this kind of exam is just to test the knowledge students have learned this semester.
You still need to proceed."
The vice principal said very politely.
The dean then said, "That's true. If Su comes to take the exam, it will be very oppressive for other students."
The head of the department also said: "Student Su is already good enough..."
Listening to these people singing and harmonizing, Su Xiaomu was a little confused.
what does this mean?
Su Xiaomu blinked: "Although I already have the idea of ending my studies early, I still hope that I can graduate successfully, and I also hope that my undergraduate degree will be from South China University of Technology."
"I might not consider a master's degree or a doctorate, but I don't really want to be an undergraduate either."
The vice president, dean, and department chair were stunned.
Is this a myth?
People who can already be recorded in the history of mankind still care about whether they have graduated from college?
Isn't this a bit pure?
"Student Su, you misunderstood us."
The vice principal quickly explained.
"What we mean is, Student Su, your academic achievements no longer need to be judged by the test standards of the general public. We even privately believe that no one in the field of computing science can judge your academic level."
"Because you revolutionized the entire concept of computing science."
"Because you have revolutionized everyone's ideas."
"Because you revolutionized the future!"
"No one can do these things but you!"
"So, after comprehensive consideration, our school believes that based on your contribution to computing science and artificial intelligence, you can graduate without taking the exam..."
"The principal will talk to you personally about this issue. The principal is on his way now."
The vice-chancellor concluded.
Su Xiaomu raised his eyebrows: "I probably understand. If this is the case, it is not unacceptable."
"I can still understand the school, but I am also afraid that I will bring some adverse effects to the school because I will affect other students who study seriously."
Not long after, the new principal who took office in October 2018 appeared in the conference room.
He is a middle-aged man in his forties, an academician, and he is very kind.
"Hello, classmate Su."
"Hello, Principal Gao, nice to meet you." Su Xiaomu expressed due kindness.
Principal Gao smiled and discussed academic matters with Su Xiaomu.
Although President Gao himself is not in the field of computing science, it does not prevent him from touting Su Xiaomu, the author of a wave of operating system engines that have influenced all mankind.
"...That's it. After thorough consideration and discussion, we have unanimously decided that, Student Su, you can graduate directly."
"Of course, if you are willing to wait until college to complete and then graduate, that's no problem."
"In fact, for South China University of Technology, you are a graduate who never needs to graduate."
"In addition, we also have a small unwelcome request. On behalf of South China University of Technology, I would like to hire Mr. Su to become a permanent honorary professor of our school..."
Su Xiaomu listened and said nothing.
These things are reasonable.
No matter what kind of university there is an outstanding student like Su Xiaomu, they will try their best to build some connections.
Permanent honorary professorships and the like have little impact on Su Xiaomu, but their additional impact on South China University of Technology is great!
In addition, of course there will be many corresponding exchanges.
Su Xiaomu pondered for a while: "It's okay with me. I still hope that I can be a normal college graduate. Of course, considering some possible adverse effects, I will try to reduce the normal college life as much as possible."
"I hope to graduate after my junior year."
"I agree in principle with becoming an honorary professor..."
Anyway, the negotiation ended in a very friendly atmosphere.
The administration of South China University of Technology is very impressive.
Su Xiaomu is not a stand-up person either.
Whether he admits it or not, he is a student from South China University of Technology.
After the school affairs were basically settled, Su Xiaomu went to the AIEP laboratory.
Su Xiaomu's sudden appearance caused a stir in the entire laboratory.
After all, this is a young, living legend.
He single-handedly established a new future direction for all mankind.
Become a professor and a Ph.D. giant in all areas of computing science, providing a shoulder for everyone to stand on.
Su Xiaomu left not long after.
After that, Su Xiaomu suddenly received an interview request from Time magazine, which is very influential in the world. Considering that it is an American media, there were also other reasons.
Su Xiaomu declined this interview.
Of course, with the consent of Su Xiaomu himself, the cover character of 2018 was changed to Su Xiaomu.
No one has an opinion on this.
However, Su Xiaomu later did not refuse the CCTV interview...
