From small town academic to chief scientist

Zhouyi said:

"I wonder why General Wang is looking for me?"

General Wang glanced at Zhou Yi's disciples but said nothing.

Chu Li, Zheng Keyu and others were also very knowledgeable and immediately said:

"Teacher, we remembered that we have something to go out for."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"Okay, you can come back later. If you have nothing else to do, you can ask your two juniors and juniors about their current study progress and help them. Shen Yiyu has graduated from a junior college to a master's degree in mathematics. Please be patient and provide guidance."

"Okay, Teacher Zhou."

Several students said respectfully, and then walked out with their laptops at an extremely fast speed.

When several students walked away, General Wang said:

"Professor Zhou must also know that Mengtian and Tianhe completed the rendezvous and docking in orbit last year."

Zhouyi said:

"Well, I understand a little bit."

Nearly half a year has passed, and Zhou Yi only has a vague memory.

General Wang said calmly:

"The completion of the launch of the Mengtian experimental module means that a major stage of our work has been completed, but our goal is not only the space station and the moon landing, but also Mars, the deep space of the universe, and the sea of ​​stars."

Zhouyi said:

"I also know about the Mengtian Experimental Cabin and the Wentian Experimental Cabin. The former Mengtian Experimental Cabin is used for physical experiments.

The reason why some physical experiments are conducted on the space station is that the space station is almost in a state of complete weightlessness. This experimental environment is called a microgravity environment.

It is impossible to simulate the microgravity environment on Aquamarine, and even an experimental device in a free-fall state at a height of 1,000 meters can maintain weightlessness for more than ten seconds at most.

The latter Wentian experimental cabin can be used for biological experiments. It has multiple experimental cabinets such as life ecology experimental cabinets, biotechnology experimental cabinets, and variable gravity scientific experimental cabinets.

Each experiment cabinet is equivalent to a small space laboratory, and many experiments in it must be conducted in microgravity.

For example, we study the growth, development, inheritance and aging of some animals, plants and microorganisms under microgravity and space radiation.

Future space farming may depend on these experiments, which can be regarded as the first step in interstellar navigation. "

General Wang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It seemed that Zhou Yi was not only focusing on mathematics, but also concerned about aerospace.

General Wang said:

"So the way we communicate in space is particularly important."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"It is indeed particularly important. At least in the solar system, we can communicate at extremely fast speeds, and there can be signal transmission in the galaxy, right?"

General Wang said:

"Yes, I thought that the quantum entanglement of last year's Nobel Prize winner in physics would bring a revolutionary peak to this technology, but I didn't expect that it was just an illusion and could not be applied to communication methods at all.

So we thought of you immediately. Shannon's information theory was born from Kepler's conjecture, and we thought you would definitely have a solution. "

Zhou Yi took another look at General Wang and realized that this man still had something.

At the beginning, there were a lot of love brain comments about quantum entanglement, as well as popular science bloggers. In fact, quantum entanglement shows a kind of action at a distance, and there is no concept of speed at all, so it does not transmit information at all, and instantaneous communication over distance is not possible. impossible.

At least judging from Zhou Yi's current level of mathematics and physics, it is simply impossible.

Zhouyi said:

"It's definitely possible, but it definitely won't be done in a short time. It should not only involve mathematical theory, but also involve various subjects. I'll go back and find out more first. You can also send me the information you have. coming."

When General Wang heard the news from Zhou Yi, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"That's good. Just have a way. Don't rush. Our Mars plan is only the third phase of the plan."

Zhou Yi looked at General Wang with a puzzled face and said:

"The third phase?"

"That's right, the first major stage is to establish an air station, the second stage is to establish manned landing on the moon, and the third stage is to land on Mars at will."

General Wang said.

Zhou Yi was puzzled and said:

"How long did it take for the previous Zhurong account to receive messages?"

"ten minutes."

"No wonder, after so long, landing once is as difficult as climbing to the sky."

Zhou Yi suddenly realized.

General Wang clenched his hands and said:

"We applied for the International Space Station many times, but were rejected by the United States, so we were forced to embark on a path of completely independent development. The feeling of begging for others in a low voice, and the feeling of being stuck in technology, I still can't forget."

"Fortunately, we succeeded. Although the size of the space station does not need to be increased for the time being, due to the advantage of being a latecomer, we have brought a lot of current black technology, and the Wentian space capsule is also equipped with the same facilities as the core module, including three sleeping areas,

This means that our space station can accommodate up to six astronauts. "

Can the space station of decades ago be compared with the space station of today?

The mobile phones used in that era were still big phones. What mobile phones are used now are smart phones. The development of artificial intelligence was unimaginable by people a few decades ago.

Zhou Yi also knew the hardships of this journey and said:

"Yes, we are all better. Now it should be our goal to develop the moon and understand Mars."

"Then it's up to you?"

General Wang asked tentatively.

Zhouyi said:

"Leave it to me, no problem, I will establish an innovative communication discipline as soon as possible."

Having said so much, General Wang was instantly elated when he heard what Zhou Yi said and said:

"Okay, tell us what you need and we will satisfy you."

Zhouyi said:

"It's just theory. I don't need anything at the moment. I will ask if necessary."

"Okay, then let's leave first and leave another assistant at your disposal?"

General Wang said.

Zhouyi said:

"No, if you have anything to do, just contact Teacher Qiu, or contact me directly. I don't like assistants, I'm still young."

"Oh well."

General Wang said helplessly,

"The information about us will be sent to you as soon as possible to Shuimu University."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"good."

When General Wang stepped out, Qiu Chengtong stepped in and said:

"There's good news."

Zhou Yi looked confused and said:

"What good news?"

Qiu Chengtong said:

"Do you know about the Cole Prize in Number Theory?"

Zhouyi said:

"Well, of course I do."

"Congratulations, you have won another world-class award. The Federal Mathematical Association saw that you proved Goldbach's conjecture, combined with the number theory conjecture proved before, decided to award it to you, and the location has been selected at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. It’s May 1st.”

Qiu Chengtong said.

It's April 16th, still half a month away.

"May 1st, such a coincidental time? Can you let them go a little earlier? If not, I won't want it."

Zhou Yi said with a depressed look,

"On May 1st, I'm going to climb the Great Wall with Xia Xue. Xia Xue is coming to Shuimu University soon. This is her first time in Beijing. I have to take her everywhere."

Qiu Chengtong:.

"That award is very authoritative. Among the Daxia nationalities, your fellow countryman Xu Chengyang has won the Cole Algebra Award. The rest have basically not.

As long as you win the Cole Prize in Number Theory, you will break another piece of history and fill a gap in this aspect in our country. "

Qiu Chengtong advised directly.

Zhou Yi shook his head and said:

"I have no interest, little money, and I have to go to the Magnesium Country. I'm really too lazy to go. I originally wanted Xia Xue to come yesterday, but she still had some finishing work, so she kept delaying it."

Qiu Chengtong said:

"Okay, Mirno, Deligne, and Seer should be awake now. They also drank a lot yesterday. You can take them to do some fun today, such as climbing the Great Wall."

Zhou Yi suspected that his teacher wanted to deliberately trick them.

Serge and Mirno are both over 90 years old, and Deligne is almost 80. Can they still climb the Great Wall?

Zhouyi said:

"Well, okay, I'll take them to play today."

Old Man Qiu said:

"I'll go there later and talk to Mirno and Deligne about this matter right away."

Zhouyi:...

After a while, Zhou Yi called four disciples directly, and by the way, Zhang Dugan, who was studying as an undergraduate at Shuimu University, was also called.

If there are more people, help these giants in mathematics to avoid problems.

The five apprentices almost jumped with joy when they heard that they were climbing the Great Wall with great mathematicians like Qiu Chengtong, Milnor, Deligne, Purcell, Schultz, and Wiles.

These people are textbook people. Such a close encounter may be the only opportunity in this life.

What Zhou Yi didn't expect was that in addition to these few people, there were other mathematicians, as if everyone had made an appointment.

We want to climb the Great Wall together.

When more than 20 buses were driving on the road, the imperial court in Beijing sent many police officers to assist, and some older mathematicians also brought many assistants.

Deligne said to Zhou Yi next to him:

"It's rare that so many mathematicians gather together this time. We are going to take a group photo to record this action."

Zhouyi said:

"Oh, that's it."

"When I come to Daxia, the best place to take photos is definitely the Great Wall, or the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in Chang'an, but the Terracotta Warriors and Horses are too far away, and no one wants to fly."

Deligne continued.

Zhouyi said:

"Oh, that's it. It's a very meaningful thing."

At this moment, Zhou Yi had an idea in his mind. The most accomplished mathematician in the past had all won a Wolf Prize.

Among them, there are many big names who have won the Fields Medal, the Abel Prize; the Fields Medal, the Wolf Prize; the Abel Prize and the Wolf Prize.

All the winners of the third prize are here.

So the question is, who is in the C position?

Who are the people who can be selected for this group photo?

This is very interesting.

This group photo is 100% intended to be recorded in the history of history, passed down, and then appear in various mathematics textbooks, mathematics popular science textbooks, mathematics papers, and even various journals.

If you refer to the Fifth Solvay Conference, you will know how precious and important this photo of mathematicians is.

Moreover, there are many 90-year-old mathematicians present. If we don’t take this opportunity to take a group photo, the chance of taking a group photo in the future is basically slim.

Zhou Yi said that it would be considered a success if he could squeeze in for a group photo.

After all, none of the big guys here are influential in the world of mathematics.

Not long after, the bus arrived at the foot of the Great Wall.

In addition to various assistants, there are also many official media and foreign official media accompanying him.

This mathematician photo-taking activity is of great significance.

Zhou Yi guessed that the C position was probably his teacher Deligne.

Next should be Milnor, Sale, Qiu Chengtong, as well as Gregory Margulis and John Griggs Thompson.

Then it is probably people like Wiles and Faljens.

I have to say that climbing the Great Wall with a group of old people is a very painful thing, at least for Zhou Yi.

Stop and go along the way, progress is very slow.

But a group of mathematicians and a group of students couldn't be happier with each other.

If they can't study under Zhou Yi, they can find a way to study for a Ph.D. with these big guys.

The resources and connections they have at their disposal are simply unimaginable.

At least for this group of ordinary students, it is unimaginable.

It was the first time for most foreign mathematicians to come to the Great Wall, and they could not help but admire it sincerely when faced with the wonders of the world.

Zhou Yi supported Milnuo, and Milnuo said as he walked:

"Zhouyi, I have to say that your country is a great country with a long history. This incredible miracle happened more than two thousand years ago. Sometimes I really envy you."

Zhouyi said:

"Teacher, why don't you stay with us for a little longer? Go see the terracotta warriors and horses in Chang'an, the pandas in Shu, or come to Yuzhou to experience the delicious food on the tip of your tongue."

Mirno glanced at this great river and mountains with nostalgia, and said with a hint of regret:

"No, no, after I take the photo, I will go to the Kingdom of Magnesium. That is my home. I am very happy to have you as my apprentice. In the future, it depends on you whether mathematics will lead to the stars and the sea."

Deligne also said:

"The written history is more than four thousand years old. It's hard for me to imagine what kind of country this is. Your splendid civilization back then can be said to be a highlight of this planet.

This Great Wall is really amazing. "

A group of big guys were all marveling, and their praise, wonder, and envy were beyond words.

This is the unique cultural, historical and humanistic heritage of Daxia.

It is the only surviving ancient country in the world. The other ancient countries are not considered ancient countries at all.

Not long after, a group of mathematicians finally climbed onto the Badaling Great Wall and gazed into the distance.

Countless people were amazed.

"This kind of miracle can only be achieved by the ancient country of Daxia. It is really incredible."

"Looking at the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, one can imagine the glory of the Ming Empire during the Zhu Di period. The seven voyages to the Western Seas are really a good story."

Many people discussed it, and it was obvious that they knew more or less about the history of Daxia.

Just when everyone was amazed, Zhou Yi asked weakly:

"Who is the C in the photo? Is there a result now?"

Zhou Yi said that he can stand anywhere. As long as he can stand in the first session, it will be a success.

As for the others, let's fight slowly. After all, everyone is qualified to stand in the C position.

Zhou Yi said that in the future group photo of mathematicians, there will only be one person standing in the C position.

I didn’t go home until eight o’clock in the evening. Sorry, the update is over. Lipoma, nothing serious. Fortunately, I will try to start writing more tomorrow. Thank you for your support.
