From small town academic to chief scientist

Just when Zhou Yi was about to retreat with peace of mind, many things came to Zhou Yi.

The person who called Zhou Yi was the governor of Yuzhou government.

Zhou Yi saw that the call was from the governor of Yuzhou. Although he didn't know what it was about, he also knew that it was definitely not a trivial matter.

Zhou Yi answered the phone and said:

"Hello, Mr. Tang, I am Zhou Yi."

The person on the phone said:

"Hello, Professor Zhou, I have something I want to discuss with you."

Zhou Yi said with a puzzled look:

"Ah, what's the matter? About the Chongqing High Court?"

Master Tang said:

"It's not a matter of the Chongqing High Court, but a matter of you."

Zhou Yi looked puzzled and said:

"Master Tang, let's be honest. Haha, we have a straight brain when it comes to mathematics, and we don't know how to twist and turn."

Master Tang said:

"We are going to apply for Daxia's highest science and technology award for you."

Zhou Yi was surprised when he heard this award and said:

"Can I? There are too many people competing for this award, and they are all people with great achievements and high reputations."

Master Tang said:

"Of course it's not just this award, there are also the Daxia Natural Science Award, the Daxia Technology Invention Award, and the Daxia Science and Technology Progress Award. We will all apply for you."

Zhouyi:...

Zhou Yi had heard of all these awards, especially the Daxia Natural Science Award.

The Daxia National Natural Science Award is divided into first and second classes, and the first class can be vacant.

The basic evaluation criteria are as follows:

Those who have made breakthrough progress in science, are internationally leading academically, are recognized and widely cited by the academic community, have promoted the development of this discipline or related disciplines, or have a significant impact on economic construction and social development, can be rated as one. Prizes.

Those who have made important progress in science, reached the international advanced level academically, and been recognized and cited by the academic community, promoted the development of this discipline or its sub-disciplines, or have a greater impact on economic construction and social development, can be rated as second prize.

Just when Zhou Yi was thinking wildly, Mr. Tang continued:

"Professor Zhou's mathematics level is definitely worthy of the Daxia National Natural Science Award, but I don't know what the rank is. According to people in the academic world, it is definitely first class;

As for the Great Xia State Technology Invention Award and the Great Xia State Science and Technology Progress Award, Professor Zhou’s asphalt roads, power grids, and artificial intelligence all fall into these two categories.

Therefore, it will definitely be selected, and the economic value and political impact it will bring are very high, and the probability is very high.

Only Daxia's highest science and technology award may be difficult, after all, there are too many people lining up to apply for it. "

Zhouyi said:

"Oh, then you can help me do it. Let my assistant Tian Yiguang be responsible for these trivial matters."

Mr. Tang said very seriously at this moment:

"Professor Zhou, it's better to keep this matter in mind. After all, you will only develop for the many professors of Chongqing High School when you enter the ranks of academicians in the future.

Otherwise, the selection of dozens of academicians are controlled by many universities such as Beijing University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and you have a bad relationship with them. In the future, "

Only then did Zhou Yi understand the reason.

Zhouyi said:

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Tang, for reminding me."

Lord Tang said:

“Especially for the Daxia National High Technology Award, more than 20 academicians and experts will consult and rate the candidates, and vote for 5 candidates to be included in the review list of the National High Technology Award.

The rest of the steps may be fine, but this step is the hardest. "

Zhouyi:...

The person with whom I have a better relationship at Beijing University is Academician E Weinan, and the rest are either not familiar with him or have a lot of connections with him.

As for the mathematics academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, many mathematics academicians are also related to Peking University, and many local mathematics academicians are related to Peking University.

Zhouyi said:

"Let's choose first. If it doesn't work, forget it. I'm not really looking forward to it. It's impossible for me to visit them one by one to build relationships."

Lord Tang said:

"Okay, as long as you agree, we will take care of the rest of the trivial matters."

Zhouyi said:

"Okay. Just hang up."

Lord Tang said:

"Actually, we want to apply for you to be an academician, but it might be much better if you can win a few awards like this before applying for academician."

Zhou Yi smiled and said:

"Let it go, I don't value these things very much."

Lord Tang said:

"Then it's settled, we'll hang up first."

Zhouyi said:

"Okay, please forgive me, Mr. Tang."

In fact, not only is it troublesome to win the highest technology award in Daxia,

Reviewing academicians is also very troublesome.

To be elected as an academician, you not only need numerous achievements, but also a wide network of contacts.

Is it enough to just have achievements?

What a joke.

The number of academicians participating in the voting election in each academic department of Daxia should exceed one-half of the number of academicians in the academic department.

Candidates who receive no less than two-thirds of the votes cast.

If it offends most people here, it can basically be cooled down.

Or most of the academicians are from a certain university or from a certain university. It can basically be assumed that that university controls the academician selection rules of this major.

When selecting academicians, you need to have some personal relationships with each academician in advance so that they can vote for you at the critical moment.

Regardless of whether you are selected in the end, this favor will still be owed.

If you are chosen, you can turn against the person, but if you are not chosen, you will be in a big debt.

Therefore, the selection of academicians is a matter of human nature, not a matter of killing.

When you come out to hang out, it depends on your background. Are the results great?

Even if you win a Nobel Prize, you may not be selected.

If you are an academician and the results are decent, then the probability is very high.

As for other ordinary people who want to evaluate academicians, or many schools want to help their own professors evaluate academicians,

Planning usually begins several years in advance, rather than overnight, and there is a lot of human sophistication involved.

As for the results of Zhouyi, they are definitely enough, but as for the others, it's hard to say.

Qiu Chengtong offended too many people in China.

In 2000, he even boasted that the combined level of all Daxia people was not as high as his 5% achievements.

Of course, except for Academician Tian Zhen, after all Academician Tian Zhen was brought out by Qiu Chengtong.

The strength is still very high. In recent years, Daxia's mathematics level has improved linearly.

Mr. Qiu didn't dare to say such words anymore.

Mr. Qiu's dirty talk is something that ordinary novels would not dare to write.

The total is less than 5% of your level?

No one dared to refute it at first.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yi continued to research, but how could a brand new particle be discovered so easily.

Discovering a brand new particle will directly win the Nobel Prize in Physics, and maybe even the Dirac Prize.

The progress of Zhouyi is very slow.

The original plan was for Zhou Yi to conduct a thorough study before July 5, but the data did not support Zhou Yi's continued research at all.

The Wukong still needs to continue to collect data, and Zhou Yi feels that the original calculation model also needs to be reformed.

Just when Zhou Yi was about to continue studying the mathematical methods, Wang Yifang called.

Zhou Yi answered the phone and asked:

"Hello, I'm Zhou Yi, what's going on?"

Wang Yifang said:

"Professor Zhou, we are going to write an application for you, an application for the Dirac Prize, and an application for the Nobel Prize in Physics."

Zhou Yi wondered:

"The Dirac Prize and the Nobel Prize in Physics? Am I qualified enough? Isn't this a joke?"

Wang Yifang said:

"Professor Zhou, the discovery of the unpacked Higgs boson is actually a bit competitive, but the hope is not high, but you can write it down, and we can help contact the Nobel Prize winner to write it for you."

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"It's better to forget it. I don't think it's possible. It won't work without hard results."

Wang Yifang said:

"Try it, maybe not only the person I contacted will write it, but Higgs may also write it for you, or other Nobel Prize winners in the physics community may also write it for you.

Mainly through nominations, we can give hope to the people below. If we can't even get nominations, we may not be able to help people. "

Zhou Yi thought for a while and realized that this was similar to selecting academicians. It was the same principle.

If the Chongqing Institute of Advanced Studies does not have a channel to select academicians, it is estimated that those who have made achievements may also leave the Chongqing Institute of Advanced Studies.

People can share adversities, but it’s hard to say whether they can enjoy blessings together after they become successful and famous.

Not everyone is Academician Yang and is willing to help his alma mater.

Many people are too late to cut.

A school, a group, a research institute, a new force,

If you only rely on blood, slogans, and chicken soup, you will not be able to go far.

Only by intertwining various interests and satisfying everyone's desires can we retain and attract talents.

This has been true for any force since ancient times.

After settling this matter, Zhou Yi continued his research.

Although the current progress is very slow, the research direction has been found by Zhou Yi.

First, innovate the traditional mathematical calculation model, and then wait for the signal of the enhanced version of Wukong.

Maybe it might be easier to achieve 6G, Zhou Yi murmured.

Aerospace Yamen Zhou Yi felt that he had been doing it for too long and it was time to give them a new system.

What Zheng Keyu and Chen Danqi have done before is almost enough, and I don’t know what the current progress is of communication-perception integration theory and technology.

It's already July, and Zhou Yi is a little anxious.

Is it possible that it really takes two or three years to implement 6G?

This has been planned for more than half a year.

After Zhou Yi called, Chen Danqi and Zheng Keyu came to his office.

Looking at their panda eyes, Zhou Yi swallowed the angry words on his lips.

It seems that I am still too eager to get things done.

Zhou Yi sighed.

With so many teams and so many people working on 6G, how could there be a breakthrough technological breakthrough in just over half a year?

Zhou Yi said with an unmistakable tone:

"How is it going? Are the master's and doctoral students you have accepted useful?"

In addition to accepting master's degrees, the School of Computer Science also accepts Ph.D.s. Zhou Yi plans to accept Ph.D.s later in the Institute of Mathematics and several other research institutes.

A master's degree alone is not enough.

Zheng Keyu said:

"Teacher Zhou, we are not lazy. The newly recruited masters and doctors have all participated in various tasks. It is expected that there will be a result before November or October."

Chen Danqi said:

"We won't have a final result until October. We're afraid of making mistakes if it's too soon."

Zhou Yi nodded and then asked:

"Zheng Keyu, where have you done?"

Zheng Keyu said:

"Teacher Zhou, we have achieved half of the orthogonal time-frequency space integrated waveform, and some mathematical models have been made.

The rest is still being worked on, and the final integrated multiple-input and multiple-output waveform may take another month or two. "

Zhou Yi nodded. It seemed that Zheng Keyu was not lazy. He had completed more than two of the four small directions.

"Professor Chen, where are you?"

Zhou Yi asked again.

Chen Danqi said:

"We are working on an integrated system for terahertz communication and perception. This is the last small project in "Integrated Terahertz Communication and Perception". The content is complex, so it will take a little more time."

Zhou Yi nodded when he heard this, and then asked the other new teams. After finding that none of them were lazy, he said:

"Well, take care of yourself. Your body is the first element of scientific research."

Zhou Yi still cared about it out of humane concern.

If his body collapsed, Zhou Yi would have to lead people to do these projects himself, and there would be no time to study mathematics and physics.

After everyone left, Zhou Yigang was about to continue working when a call came from Qiu Chengtong.

Zhou Yi looked at his phone and murmured:

"It's rare for Teacher Qiu to call me. It's probably something big."

Zhou Yi answered the phone, and the other end of the phone asked in a somewhat hurried tone:

"Zhou Yi, have you read the manuscript Wanyi published as a scientific research assistant?"

Zhou Yi said with a confused look:

"No, what's wrong, Teacher Qiu?"

Qiu Chengtong said with a hint of surprise:

"Wanyi seems to have made great achievements, in the direction of algebra. She actually successfully switched from number theory to algebra, and it took one year."

Zhouyi asked:

"What guess?"

Qiu Chengtong said:

"Jacobi conjecture, the entire mathematics community is in a state of excitement. Many people should have received the news by now. Many masters in this field are probably reviewing the manuscript."

Zhou Yi took a breath when he heard this, Jacobi guessed.

I'll be a good boy.

It turned out to be it!

Sharpening the sword for a year actually produced a huge result.

If we add the Zhou conjecture proposed by Mr. Zhou Haizhong of number theory, Xiao Wanyi is likely to become a candidate for the Fields Medal in 2026.

Even take it directly.

Zhouyi said:

"Okay, I'm going to download the paper and read it."

Qiu Chengtong said:

"The direction of your research is geometry and number theory. Are you sure? Wanyi needs professionals to review the manuscript and point out the errors.

If Zhang Yitang had someone to review the manuscript for him, he would probably have done a better job on the Siegel zero-point conjecture. "

Zhouyi said:

"Of course no problem, I'm an all-rounder."

It's rare to show off in front of Qiu Chengtong, so why don't you show off now?

"Senior sister's thesis was given to me, but people from the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris should have read it for her."

Qiu Chengtong laughed and cursed:

"Not everyone has an upright character. It is impossible to show the original manuscript to others. Most of it was written by Wanyi herself. Even an ordinary Philippine Prize winner would be excited by this kind of result."

Zhouyi heard this, and it seems that Qiu Chengtong was right. After all, it was a conjecture called the 18 major mathematical problems by Fields Medal winner and Wolf Medal winner Stephen Smale in 1998.

Its gold content is not generally high.
