Genius of the Rules-Style System

"I,"

"Zhao Yi,"

"Don't care about money!"

Zhao Yi told reporters that he would establish a foundation and invest one million US dollars. Part of what he meant was that he did not care about the bonus of the "Wolfskohl Prize".

Just wanting him to work in country D for one million pounds is really too much.

Also, setting up a foundation is a really good idea.

Think of it as a charitable donation, but most importantly, use your appeal to do something.

Zhao Yi has always felt that what should be done for the development of domestic mathematics, and at what height we stand, we should do things related to it.

Now he has stood at the pinnacle of mathematics, the king in the field of analytic number theory, and has become the most famous figure in the world of mathematics.

Perhaps, ‘one’ can be removed.

If the scope is limited to the country, his influence will be even greater.

When he reached this height, he should not only do research on his own, but also do something. However, establishing a mathematics institution was something he was unwilling to do.

First, it’s too troublesome.

Second, it is a big restriction on yourself.

Establishing a mathematics institution with oneself as the core means spending a lot of energy on mathematics education, and the efficiency of the education industry is very low.

The ‘efficiency’ here does not refer to how much money you make, but how many talents you cultivate.

Education is a job that requires persistence for a long time. Spending a lot of energy may not necessarily yield results. It may take ten, twenty, or even more years to establish an influential mathematics institution and cultivate a large number of talents. It only takes a long time.

He is very young.

Rather than investing energy in mathematics education, it is more efficient to do research yourself.

It is different to use personal appeal to establish a foundation. All he contributes is the initial capital, and his appeal is of no use. He does not need to do anything himself to benefit many young scholars.

Many domestic Ph.D.s in theoretical mathematics have to work in applied mathematics, computers, machinery, etc. There is an important reason for this -

Life!

Everyone has to live!

Mathematicians must first be able to make money and live a normal life before they can devote their energy to research.

The domestic academic system is very unfriendly to theoretical mathematics, because it is difficult to produce results in theoretical mathematics. Some talented mathematics researchers may not produce results for several years or more than ten years, but they may have hope to solve some major problems. mathematical problems.

How can you persevere in the past few years or more than ten years?

It is very, very difficult to change the domestic system.

Therefore, setting up a special foundation and providing certain living subsidies and funding to young scholars engaged in theoretical mathematics research in the name of the foundation may encourage more talented scholars to concentrate on the research of theoretical mathematics.

"Theoretical mathematics is the most basic, lowest level, and most important science."

"Theoretical mathematics is the driving force that supports the development of science. Many people know that European and American countries attach great importance to theoretical mathematics. They have many excellent mathematicians and many theoretical physicists, and theoretical physics is a branch of mathematics."

"Theory is the principle, the most basic science. Only by laying a good foundation and allowing all technologies to be traced back to their source can technology develop more steadily and faster."

"I hope to see more young scholars devote themselves to theoretical research in the future, instead of just talking about mathematicians, which makes people think of old professors and academics..."

Zhao Yi's description made reporters laugh, and at the same time they couldn't help but respect him.

What surprised the interviewer was not that Zhao Yi established a foundation, but that Zhao Yi decided to invest the Shaw Prize prize money, which was one million US dollars.

This is no small sum of money.

Perhaps to some wealthy people, one million US dollars is nothing. Their assets are measured in hundreds of millions. But Zhao Yi is just a scientist and scholar. If he has a bigger title, he will be promoted to an academician. But academician only represents a title, not a lot of money.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Yi is a pure scholar. Most of his money comes from completing projects, receiving academic bonuses, and normal salary.

Calculated this way, it won’t be much.

The interviewer made a mental estimate and felt that Zhao Yi still had some money, maybe 20 million? Or a little more, but it doesn't make much difference.

For a rich man worth tens of billions, donating 100 million is nothing.

For a scholar with a net worth of tens of millions, it would be great to donate several million yuan.

This is a question of proportion and the amount of personal property.

In addition, Zhao Yi is only in his early twenties.

If we were an old professor, he would be old enough anyway. No matter how much money he had, he would never be able to spend it all. It would be normal to donate part of it. However, when you are in your early twenties, you still have many, many years in your life, and you will be the best in the future. When you have a wonderful time, you can make up your mind to donate part of your money, which is really amazing in comparison.

"Zhao Yi is different from ordinary people!"

"Not only is he a genius, he also disdains money. He will donate millions of dollars on demand and is willing to make his own contribution to domestic academic development..."

"It's really great!"

…

Not long after the reporter's interview, the news was reported.

It was originally just an exclusive interview with Zhao Yi, reported in the form of a text conversation, and was only published on official news, but it attracted a lot of attention.

Related matters are being discussed on the Internet——

"Zhao Yi said that he would set up a foundation to support young scholars engaged in mathematical theoretical research, and he personally donated one million US dollars!"

"He's so great, that's a million dollars!"

"One million dollars, just donate it!"

"Zhao Yi is really concerned about the development of domestic mathematics. What he said in the interview makes sense!"

“I don’t know when his foundation will be established, but I will definitely donate part of it then!”

"support!"

There was a lot of praise for Zhao Yi's establishment of the foundation on the Internet, and the discussion was heated. Someone immediately mentioned it sourly, saying that other people had also established foundations and donated a lot of money.

For example, Qiu Chengwen.

Qiu Chengwen spent about the same amount of money to establish a foundation with the purpose of supporting the development of mathematics, but very little was known about the matter, and many people had no reaction to the news.

Why does Zhao Yi attract attention?

This is actually the same idea as the reporter. An important reason is that Zhao Yi is still very young. It is really remarkable that at such a young age he can spend a large amount of money to establish a foundation to support academic development.

Qiu Chengwen is too old, so his feelings are naturally different.

In addition, it is domestic influence.

Qiu Chengwen is still a "foreign academician" no matter how you say it. He has not yet returned to Chinese citizenship. Chinese people's emotions are completely different. He did win the Fields Medal, but no one knows how he won it.

Zhao Yi is different.

Although he has not won Fields yet, he has cracked two well-known mathematical problems. Winning the award is a sure thing. At the same time, he is still very young. He is an internationally recognized super genius, and his domestic popularity is comparable to that of a 'A-list star'. Compare.

He donated a large amount of money and decided to support young scholars, which naturally aroused heated discussions.

Many media also participated and reported on the matter. In addition to giving Zhao Yi high praise, they also discussed the importance of supporting theoretical research.

This is to popularize science to the public.

Many people do not know the difference between ‘science’ and ‘technology’, nor do they know the difference between ‘scientist’ and ‘engineer’ in academic terms, let alone what kind of difficulties young scholars engaged in mathematical theory will encounter.

After a round of bombardment of subjects by the media, everyone realized that engaging in mathematical theoretical research would encounter so many problems. Only then did they understand why there are so few world-renowned mathematicians and physicists in China, and only then did they understand Zhao Yi’s decision to establish a foundation The purpose of the meeting.

While some media followed the trend in reporting, the state media also quickly took action.

"Renren Daily" and "Youth Daily" have successively written relevant articles, highly praising Zhao Yi's approach, and calling on domestic talents to pay attention to theoretical research.

The affirmation from the official media is of great significance.

There have been more media reports on the Internet and more heated discussions. Many netizens commented, "After the foundation is established, you must make donations and contribute your own strength."

The online publicity was very beneficial. Not only did it give Zhao Yi a high rating, it also made him feel a lot more relaxed. Several organizations and firms contacted him to help manage the foundation.

The foundation cannot be run by one person, and Zhao Yi cannot take care of it on his own, so he will definitely leave it to a professional organization.

Zhao Yi didn't bother with this aspect.

"Brother Chao! It's time for you to take action again!" Zhao Yi quickly contacted Xu Chao and decided to put him in charge of everything in the foundation.

He has two invisible assistants.

One is Xu Chao.

Xu Chao was specifically responsible for the work. Whether it was Yuan Zhongchen's team or the "high school quartet" deciding to start a business, Xu Chao was asked to help.

Xu Chao can be said to be a ‘work assistant’.

The other one is Qian Hong.

Qian Hong is the invisible 'life assistant'. Qian Hong is responsible for delivering meals, doing laundry, etc.

Xu Chao received a salary from Zhao Yi and received a certain commission from his work, so he was naturally motivated to work.

Qian Hong......

"She should also be given some salary, otherwise she should move in together... ahem."

Zhao Yi thought about it carefully and found that Qian Hong would probably not accept this benefit, so he immediately thought of writing a book.

yes!

The money will be spent soon, and of course you have to earn some back.

That’s a million dollars!

"I wonder if "The Boundary Theory of Particles" can earn back one million..."

"I guess it's difficult!"

"Zhao's Screening Method" has indeed made a lot of money, it must have exceeded 4 million by now, but the reason why "Zhao's Screening Method" is successful is that it is an 'application book', and you can learn it if you buy the book There are things inside, so as to understand the screening method and its use in algorithm design.

"Zhao's Screening Method" has become a must-have book for computer researchers and advanced programmers. It has even become a textbook for some related courses and has been recommended to students by many universities.

"Boundary Theory of Particles" is a book on theoretical physics. The content can only be studied and read, and it has no practical effect.

"It's good to have a one-tenth chance." Zhao Yi thought and shook his head helplessly, but no matter how small the income was, it was income. He quickly contacted Qian Hong and asked about the progress of writing the book.

Qian Hong was very depressed when she was asked. She felt like she was back in elementary school or middle school, when the teacher was urging her to hand in homework, but the homework was too difficult.

Fortunately, most of the homework is completed. The only thing missing is the final finishing touches and the correction of the wording.

"Soon!"

"Stop rushing!"

"Don't worry, it will be completed before the end of the semester!" Qian Hong gritted his teeth and replied.

Zhao Yi was relieved.

…

end of semester.

Students have entered the busy exam week, and everyone in the dormitory is working hard to prepare for the exam.

Meng Zheng’s grades are very good, but he still needs to prepare for exams in some subjects. Reviewing more before the exam can get more points. He hopes to get a high-end scholarship. Good grades will also help to secure graduate school; Li Renzhe’s grades are not bad either. , but he is quite partial to subjects. For example, he has never listened to politics-type courses. He sleeps in class all the time. His English is also poor, and he has never passed the CET-6 exam until now.

Fan Lei......

After two years in college, he managed to be ranked last in the dormitory and was on the verge of failing the class.

In fact, Fan Lei's grades can be considered average in the class. As long as he doesn't fail the class, he will definitely not be ranked behind. It's just because the study atmosphere in the dormitory is much better than that in other dormitories that he falls into dismal grades. the last one.

Fan Lei didn't care about his grades. He didn't consider going to graduate school. He just wanted to graduate from his bachelor's degree and work. As long as he passed the courses, he had the most relaxed mentality.

Zhao Yi also went back to the dormitory for a day, played games with Fan Lei, spent some 'leisure coins', and asked about the laboratory.

He hasn't been to the laboratory for many days.

The laboratory's HIV virulence gene project has been completed, and I have been doing follow-up work recently. Because the project has a relatively large impact, I not only have to make a completion report, but also attend some conferences related to AIDS prevention.

Ailixin is responsible for these tasks.

Now Ai Lixin has become different, because he has been promoted to a researcher and is also the main force in the project research process. He is enough to represent the laboratory to participate in meetings and exchanges. In the past month, he has been flying everywhere without touching the ground. Most of the No time is spent in the laboratory.

Zhang Wei presided over the research of other small projects and became the real main force of scientific research in the laboratory.

Yan Yi and Liu Chengjie are the deputies. They are also very important. They have many tasks every day, mainly because the laboratory has too few manpower.

But they didn't complain, mainly because the benefits were relatively large.

Putting aside salaries and bonuses, newly promoted associate researchers and assistant researchers can directly participate in experiments as the main force. The R\u0026D remuneration is really good.

People at the same level in other laboratories are very envious of these two people, because they can only do scrap work if they want to participate in research and development.

Fan Lei continued to engage in "logistics" work, which mainly involved finding materials for experiments, going to cooperative hospitals to get some reports, and doing some small things.

Cleaning, buying coffee, moving things...

etc.

Someone must do these jobs, and Fan Lei is the most suitable.

Fan Lei is still very good.

Although he was doing "peripheral" work, he also understood the research in the laboratory. He told Zhao Yi in detail about the progress of small projects.

"correct."

Fan Lei was playing the game and suddenly said, "My blood..."

"Your blood?"

"My blood!"

"What?"

Zhao Yi pulled the game perspective to the character controlled by Fan Lei and found that he was at full health. He asked confusedly, "What's wrong? I can't walk, otherwise the other side will push down the tower."

"...I mean the laboratory."

Fan Lei simply turned his head and said, "There is basically no change in the sample using my blood. Sister Zhang Wei said that it will be difficult to find anything in the short term. She plans to divide it into several groups for experimental research."

"What experiment?" Zhao Yi asked with interest.

"It seems that it is necessary to add various viruses for testing. I don't quite understand." Fan Lei shook his head while thinking, "Anyway, you should go and take a look when you have time."

"Um."

Zhao Yi nodded lightly and continued playing the game. Suddenly he turned to look at Fan Lei and made a small suggestion, "How about, Lao Fan, you go to the hospital tomorrow."

"Go to the hospital? What for?"

"To draw some blood, go to our cooperative hospital and ask for help from a high-level nurse you are familiar with. Remember to bring supporting documents."

Fan Lei asked a little flustered, "Why?"

"That's what you just said."

Zhao Yi said matter-of-factly, "Didn't you tell me, Sister Zhang Wei, that you plan to divide the samples into several groups for research? If other viruses are injected, the amount of materials must be increased. Indeed, your blood now is definitely different from that at that time, but Because it was your blood that transformed it, it must..."

"do not talk!"

Fan Lei interrupted abruptly, stood up and took a deep breath, "Zhao Yi, Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao! Let's discuss whether I can resign!"

"...You want to resign?"

"yes!"

Fan Lei was so excited that he almost shed tears, "Who can bear this? I am doing a part-time job, not a guinea pig!"

"Yeah, that makes sense."

Zhao Yi nodded in understanding, thought about it and said, "What a pity. Really, Lao Fan, you are still very useful to our laboratory."

"I originally planned to let you stay and work during the summer and apply for twice the salary for you. When I applied for the next project, I also planned to add your name to it."

“Although it’s useless, you can have a resume of participating in project research and development.”

"Since you decided to resign..."

"No!"

Fan Lei said with an upright face, "I am a member of the laboratory, the laboratory is my home, and you are my family."

"If my family needs it, let alone draw some blood, I won't even frown if I draw some bone marrow!"

"This is what I should do!"

Zhao Yi patted his shoulder happily and said with a smile, "That's great. Research on hematopoietic stem cells is definitely more valuable than ordinary blood. Then tomorrow..."

Fan Lei suddenly trembled and said quickly, "No, no, Brother Zhao, let's continue playing games! Games are important, games are important, don't talk about this, don't talk about this..."

"Ha, ha~~"
