Chapter 1262 because of Love

Nominations are coming to an end.

Qin Luo, Kate, Cook...

Individual votes have also been released.

The highest is undoubtedly Qin Luo who is close to the full vote, followed by Cook, Kate leads Mike Connor by one vote and is selected as the Turing Award candidate in fifth place.

As the founder of computer vision and the leader of computer vision, Mike Connor won the sixth and missed this Turing Award.

When casting a vote, Connor did not vote for himself, and also prevented Qin Luo from voting for him.

Strictly speaking, he gave up the chance to compete for the Turing Award.

As for why? Qin Luo thinks it's because of love...

If Connor hadn't stopped himself, and he had the vote in his hand, Connor would have entered the final battle for the Turing Award with a one-vote lead.

In this regard, Qin Luo can only express helplessness.

When love is gone, you can look for it, and when the grand prize is gone, I don't know when to wait.

Between his girlfriend and the grand prize, Qin Luo would choose the grand prize without hesitation.

As for the reason is very simple: Xueba does not need a girlfriend (PS: when competing for the grand prize)

"Is it worth giving up the Turing Award for love?" Qin Luo turned to Mike Connor.

does it worth?

Hearing Qin Luo's words, Mike Connor raised a faint smile: "It's worth it."

"Why?" Qin Luo asked curiously: "You must know that it is the Turing Award, which represents the highest achievement in computer science."

It is true that the Turing Award does represent the highest achievement in computer science.

But what does this have to do with him?

It was as if he would definitely win an award if he entered the candidate ranks.

"It's like I'm about to win an award..." Mike Connor glared at Qin Luo angrily, and said, "Especially when you are here, I can't think of how to win the award."

"..."

Qin Luo's legs staggered and he almost fell to the ground.

What's the matter, talk about it, and it turns back on me?

But somehow, Qin Luo had a feeling of euphoria in his heart.

It feels so good to be defeated without a fight.

When Knuth took the microphone in his hand and stepped onto the podium again, Qin Luo knew that the nomination meeting had come to an end.

Sure enough, Knuth walked to the speaking table and said aloud: "Thank you very much for coming. With the witness of all my colleagues, we have selected 5 Turing Award nominees. They are Professor Qin from Yenching University. Professor Kate at the University of Michigan, Professor Cook at the University of Melbourne…”

"First of all, let us congratulate them with warm applause, and secondly, I hereby extend a grand invitation to invite all professors to attend the Turing Award ceremony in one month."

"Clap clap~"

Thunderous applause resounded through the sky.

The annual event in the computer industry, the Turing Award ceremony will open in a month.

At that time, computer scientists from all over the world and the chairman of the world's major technology companies will gather again to witness the birth of the legend.

"Next, we have prepared a sumptuous lunch at the hotel, please move the professors..."

The feast after the nomination meeting is the usual practice, almost since 1966.

On the one hand, it is to provide a social occasion for major professors, and on the other hand, it is also to comfort scientists who have not been able to enter the candidate sequence.
