Chapter 14 The turmoil at the seminar
On the podium in the classroom, there are several chairs on which Professor Fujimura is sitting, as well as several guests from the college invited from outside. Several young teachers from the Humanities Department are sitting in the first row to cheer for Fujimura. From time to time,
In the name of asking questions, they touted Fujimura's research. They seemed to be vying with each other, and even had a vague competitive trend, as if they were afraid of flattering the dean, but not flattering him loudly enough.
Perhaps those young teachers thought that this seminar was an excellent opportunity for them to show their loyalty to the dean. However, for the audience, it was a kind of torture. For most of the seminar, there were questions about
The content of "Travel to the Eastern Lands to the Tang Dynasty" is not much, but there is a lot of flattering content. And the content of Fujimura's lecture is also dull and boring, and does not seem to reflect the level of a scholar who has published so many papers.
.
Beihara looked at those young teachers and laughed in his heart. When he was in college, he had a good relationship with some young college teachers. Therefore, he also knew the survival rules of young teachers in the university. If he wanted to survive, he could only continue to work hard.
Publish papers and launch scientific research projects to avoid being eliminated.
When it comes to publishing papers, you may be able to work alone by relying on your true talents and knowledge.
But for launching scientific research projects and obtaining more scientific research funds for oneself, this is not something that one person can do.
The dean of a college often has this kind of power.
Especially when it comes to endorsing young scholars.
With the support of the dean's interpersonal network, it will not be difficult to attract more scientific research funds.
This is why these young scholars are now rushing to flatter Fujimura at seminars.
On the podium.
Fujimura's face was a little red, as if he had drank some wine, and he looked a little drunk. He was obviously enjoying the atmosphere of the seminar. A pair of sharp eyes scanned the people in the classroom, listening to the young teacher below.
Praise to him. Everything that happens at this moment proves the success of his academic career.
Now he is the dean.
He also wants to go one step further and become a special honorary professor at the university.
That is an extremely high honor that Kyoto University scholars can receive.
Of course, behind this title, there are also full economic benefits - extremely generous pensions, private driver arrangements, school villas, children's education, which can make a mark in the history of the university.
It can be said that he gained both fame and fortune.
To become a special honorary professor, in addition to papers, you must produce more results.
The university system is like a completely hypocritical pyramid.
If you want to keep climbing up, you must focus on publishing papers. However, when you reach the upper part of the pyramid and want to climb higher, it will tell you that if you want to take a step further,
You have to write a book, you have to have more successes besides papers, and you can't just indulge in the impetuous style of publishing papers.
This latest edited version of "The Eastern Land Parade to the Tang Dynasty" is the result of Fujimura's desire to become a special honorary professor.
Of course, he has already taken care of the interpersonal relationships online.
This is why he voted for Takeuchi to become the vice president, because when Takeuchi asked him for his vote, he clearly supported him in applying for a special honorary professor.
He voted for Takeuchi to become vice-chancellor.
Takeuchi voted for him to become a special honorary professor.
Hold hands with each other and vote for each other.
Everything seemed to go so smoothly.
Fujimura sat on the chair, slowly picked up the water glass and took a sip. He looked at the young teacher with eyes that seemed full of sympathy. It seemed that the young teacher and he who had become the dean did not live in the same world.
At this time, in the audience.
Kitahara did not pay attention to Fujimura. Instead, his eyes rested on the back of a girl in the third row of the classroom. This girl had a high ponytail and her pale neck was exposed from the side. She put her hands on the table as if
She was trembling slightly, and her whole sitting posture was stiff and tense. Her clothes were a little bulging, as if they were filled with something, and they were unnaturally puffy.
There is obviously something unusual about this girl.
As if preparing for action.
Although we couldn't see her front, judging from her back, she seemed to be staring at Professor Fujimura on the stage.
The abnormality of unidentified objects inside the clothes reminds us of the scene at the school gate where a group of students stood protesting and confronted the security guards, as well as people whispering about Professor Fujimura in the seminar. In the current atmosphere of Kyoto University,
It would not be surprising if some students took more bold steps to protest.
"Have you noticed her?" Beihara turned his head and whispered to Miyagawa, "Maybe she will do something at the seminar later."
The moment the words fell.
There was only a "clang" sound, and the girl with a high ponytail suddenly stood up from her seat. The chair fell to the ground due to her sudden movement and made a sound. It seemed that she did not expect that there would be audience members standing directly below.
When he got up, the lively academic conversation on the stage paused. Fujimura raised his head curiously and looked at the girl.
Suddenly, the eyes of everyone listening in the classroom fell on this girl.
"Zhi, zi, zi." The girl with a high ponytail slowly opened the zipper of her clothes. The moment the zipper was removed, the things inside the clothes were exposed. They were all made one by one.
Slogan. The girl stepped on the stool and jumped onto the table.
"You...what are you going to do?!" The host present couldn't help shouting when he saw this scene. Recently, the atmosphere at Kyoto University has become extremely tense due to Takeuchi's appointment. Everyone is paying attention to the targeting of people on campus.
Will Takeuchi's protest actions escalate? For some faculty and administrative staff who just want to live in peace and have nothing to do with themselves, they just hope that the escalation of actions will not occur in their office premises
Inside.
The girl with a high ponytail obviously had her hands trembling, but she still raised the banner in her hand without hesitation, looked at Professor Fujimura in the field, and shouted loudly: "Fujimura! You shameless person!
Plagiarizing other people’s work! Why do you still have the nerve to hold a seminar here!”
The slogan she held up with both hands was suspended in the air by the height of the table, so that everyone could clearly see it. There was written in calligraphy on it: "The Dean of the Graduate School of Humanities blatantly plagiarized other people's works! Please request the university
Punish it!"
Plagiarism, this harsh word, echoes in the classroom.
It seemed that such a sudden turn of events was not expected, and the drowsy audience suddenly became energetic.
The host on the stage panicked, but Fujimura was quite calm, as if he had seen strong winds and waves and was unmoved. The young teachers sitting in the first row looked at each other, and soon someone was the first to react, "Call security!
Go call the security guard!" After a while, two or three young teachers rushed out of the door and rushed to call the security guard.
Following the girl's sudden out-of-the-blue behavior, the whole classroom suddenly became excited.
Miyagawa, who was sitting in the back, opened her eyes suddenly when she heard the woman's voice, as if she couldn't believe the scene in front of her. She couldn't see the face of this girl with a high ponytail. However,
She heard an extremely familiar voice. Although she had not seen it for several years, she could still recognize it at this moment.
This girl’s voice is Hirose Chinatsu.
