Genius of the Rules-Style System

"Our math genius is back!"

"Aloof Fan is back!"

"Come on, Leng Fan, you are the pillar of our country's future mathematics research!"

"Welcome, welcome back!"

"Fan Lei is still amazing. He went to country Y and became a genius mathematician. He also became an internet celebrity. He is aloof and cool. What a nice nickname he has. He is a genius mathematician and a cool guy!"

"..."

Fan Lei had just returned to Yanhua University and reported to the Institute of Biomedicine. He was warmly welcomed by a large group of people. However, the words they said were very depressing. They were mixed with sarcasm and amusement, which made him want to curse. impulse.

Math genius?

Indifferent style?

Internet celebrity?

"Peat!" Fan Lei gritted his teeth and didn't know what to say. He went to Zhao Yi's laboratory to quiet down for a while, turned on the computer and checked the recent news, but he felt even more depressed.

Many people are talking about him and have given him many nicknames, such as 'Indifferent Fan', 'Fan Xueba', and 'Fan Tiancai'. They all sound positive, but when contacted, there are a lot of people who say that he was Words like "cheating" are sarcastic.

Fan Lei felt a little comforted that there were still some people who recognized his performance and spoke for him, "I noticed that Fan Lei didn't say that he was a mathematical genius throughout the whole process!"

"It's remarkable that someone in his early twenties can perform like this in a venue like the Mathematicians' Congress Center."

"Fan Lei should not be blamed for this matter. It was purely misled by Qiu Chengwen. Fan Lei did not say that he was a genius at all."

"Putting aside this matter, Fan Lei looks pretty good and has a very good temperament. I love him!"

"I love him, I want to give him a baby~~"

"I want it too~"

When Fan Lei saw the news on Weibo, he couldn't help but feel a little secretive in his heart. He chose to open a few supporting Weibo accounts to see if they were in line with his aesthetics, and he felt the urge to smash the computer. .

"This... is so fat! Your belly can hold me in it."

"This, a man?"

"This, it's okay, but why are you wearing so much makeup? I'm sorry, you're a forty-three-year-old aunt?"

When Fan Lei was watching carefully, the door of the laboratory was opened, and Yan Xuelin came over with a smile.

"Director Yan!" Fan Lei stood up and said hello.

"Sit down!"

Yan Xuelin hurried over and asked Fan Lei to sit down, and then said, "I'm so happy today. Our math genius is back. I think being a clerk in the institute has delayed you, otherwise..."

"You should study mathematics, right?"

"..."

Fan Lei rolled his eyes hard and couldn't help but feel the urge to vomit blood.

"just kidding!"

Yan Xuelin said nonchalantly, "You're back. You've been gone for less than a week, but you have a lot of work. You have to pay attention to it. If nothing happens, you should go to the medical center first."

"……good."

Fan Lei was assigned work just after he came back. He was still quite depressed, but the work still had to be completed. He knew that the 'holiday' was over and busy days were coming again.

the other side.

Zhao Yizheng was interviewed by a reporter in the office of the School of Science. The reporter’s interview mainly focused on NP problems.

This is a topic of international concern.

Zhao Yi said, "Before the International Congress of Mathematicians, I have submitted my paper to the magazine. If nothing else happens, my paper will be included in the next issue of "Annals of Mathematics" and the Chinese version will be published in the "Journal of Mathematical Physics" "superior."

The reporter asked, "Are you confident in your proof?"

Zhao Yi nodded and said, "I am very sure that the NP problem has been proven. I am still confident in this."

"The NP problem is one of the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium, and it still ranks first. How do you feel about being able to solve this problem? For example, are you very excited? Or something else, you can say whatever you want. "

Zhao Yi said calmly, "You can't say you're excited..., right? Personally, I don't have any special feelings. I read in the reports that many people said that the NP problem is an important step in the development of mathematics, and it should be very meaningful. "

"But talking about the development of mathematics is a bit too broad. For me, it just solves a problem."

"I think the solution process is more important than the result. It's very interesting to think about difficult problems, especially logical thinking like NP problems. It's like someone gives you a gift, and there are layers of packaging on the outside. You want to see it. Whatever is inside will be dismantled and dismantled..."

"But when I finally see the gift, I probably won't be so excited."

Zhao Yi's metaphor made reporters smile bitterly.

That is one of the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium. How can such an important problem be compared with an ordinary gift? He is indeed the world's top mathematician.

The math teachers sitting next to him couldn't help but raise their lips.

Nothing special?

Is solving NP problems like unwrapping a gift? But even if they work hard for this gift, they will never be able to have it.

Zhao Yi answered several topics related to NP questions, and then the reporter asked about a hot topic on the Internet--

Fan Lei.

Zhao Yi shook his head and said, "I saw what was said on the Internet. It must be a misunderstanding. The reason why I asked Fan Lei to help me make the report is because I trust him and he is a good friend of mine."

"I think Fan Lei is also a very good talent, but it should have nothing to do with mathematics, probably..."

"Professor Qiu is just kidding everyone!"

Zhao Yi finally attributed the cause to Qiu Chengwen, because that was the fact.

at the same time.

Qiu Chengwen was not in a good mood. He had been paying attention to the form of public opinion in the country and found that everyone attributed the cause to himself. Even he himself felt that it was his problem.

Of course, he would also attribute part of the reason to Fan Lei and Zhou Li.

"Fan Lei is not a math genius, or even a mathematician. Why didn't you tell me earlier? Then I wouldn't misunderstand."

"And Professor Zhou Lizhou, why didn't you remind me earlier?"

These words can only be kept in my heart for the time being.

In the current domestic public opinion, many people are treating this matter as a joke, and some netizens have specially made emoticons, which are animated pictures of him being interviewed, with the sentence, "I think you are a math genius!"

Irony!

Qiu Chengwen cursed countless times in his heart and felt that his personal image was almost gone, so he decided not to return to China for the time being, but to stay in India for a while and communicate more with fellow mathematicians.

…

A week later.

Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory released big news that shocked the world. A Tianqing protein drug was officially launched.

This drug, called 'Tianqing Aniline', has undergone several rounds of experiments. According to the release, it is very effective for patients in the incubation period of AIDS. In theory, it is possible to extend the incubation period indefinitely, that is, as long as you continue to take the drug. , can maintain the level of immune function in the body for a long time.

Of course, the side effects are not small.

Taking drugs will aggravate the immune response in the body and can cause fever in adults for about one to three days. However, considering that ordinary AIDS patients only need to take it one to three times a month, and there are no similar drugs on the market, side effects are not a problem. .

The launch of this drug is big news that shocked both domestic and foreign countries. Many international media have negative views on the efficacy of the drug. This is probably because Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory has an absolute monopoly. It has complete intellectual property rights in China, and only domestic manufacturers can The drugs produced will naturally not be welcomed by European and American countries, especially the launch of drugs, which will have a great impact on them. Some European and American pharmaceutical companies that develop AIDS drugs have been greatly affected.

This is very good news for AIDS patients.

AIDS patients who are in the incubation period can take immune-enhancing drugs to extend the incubation period of AIDS indefinitely. In theory, they can avoid getting sick for a lifetime.

Of course, the premise is that you keep taking the medicine.

The price of 'Tianqing Aniline' is not very affordable. The cost of each medication is about 500 yuan, which is not expensive compared to very expensive drugs. However, considering the lifelong medication, the price is also very high.

Even so, the drug has been widely sought after when it was launched. Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory tried its best to produce but could not keep up with sales, and there were still a large number of orders from abroad.

This is good news for Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory, and it is also good news for the Biomedical Research Institute, because the Biomedical Research Institute owns the patent rights to Tianqing protein drugs.

Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory is a large international pharmaceutical factory, and the Biomedical Research Institute is just a research institution. Even if it is a national key research institution, the number of people is very limited. The income from patent sharing is enough to support the Biomedical Research Institute in the future. In ten or twenty years, there will be no worries about R\u0026D funding.

The benefits of the Biomedical Research Institute are not only money, but also huge reputation. Many pharmaceutical companies and medical institutions have come to the door, wanting to cooperate with the Biomedical Research Institute for research and development. Funding sponsorship can be described as "constant".

Money is confidence!

Yan Xuelin suddenly became arrogant. He was just in time to purchase equipment for the new medical science center. Faced with a large number of applications from researchers and laboratories, he didn't even look carefully, and waved his hand casually, "Passed!" "

"pass!"

"Pass again!"

The Biomedical Research Institute has a lot of money and wants to 'buy, buy, buy', and the equipment it buys is the most advanced equipment in the world. Many of the equipment used to be considered a luxury, and only the central laboratory would be equipped with them. Now they only need qualified laboratories. All can be equipped, and the central laboratory planned by the Medical Science Center is even equipped with large servers.

When a large server worth tens of millions was installed, Wei Shiqing happened to be checking the laboratory assigned to microbial research. He asked Fan Lei, the 'supervisor', a little confused, "What... is this for?"

"Install the server!" Fan Lei replied.

"Servers? What are there so many for?" Wei Shiqing didn't know much about servers. He just watched machines being shipped in one after another. "What servers have you installed?"

"I don't quite understand, anyway...it seems to have cost more than nine million!"

"How many?"

"More than nine million, servers are expensive to begin with!" Fan Lei said matter-of-factly.

Wei Shiqing was stunned. "No, no, Fan Lei, your medical institute conducts medical research. Why do you need such a large server? More than nine million..."

Fan Lei said, "Director Yan said that it seems to be used to store data. If the scale of the medical clinic's website is expanded in the future, there will be no need to rent a server... I don't really understand either."

"Then there's no need for such a good server!"

Wei Shiqing's heart ached when he heard this, "Waste, waste! With so much money, it would be great to buy equipment!"

Fan Lei shook his head and said, "The equipment has been bought. We had a meeting yesterday and couldn't think of any other equipment to buy. Anyway, we bought all the equipment we can buy. Some foreign countries are embargoed and there is nothing we can do about it."

He shook his head as he spoke, seeming a little regretful.

Wei Shiqing almost vomited blood after hearing this. Their microbiology technology laboratory was frugal in order to save research and development funds. Every time they wanted to add equipment, they had to apply again and again.

At present, the laboratory equipment of the Medical Science Center has not yet been purchased, and we are still considering whether to move the original equipment here.

The medical center is great!

The equipment has been purchased and there is nothing left to buy!

"This is so irritating!"

Wei Shiqing was unhappy no matter what he thought about it, and he felt very displeased when he saw Fan Lei. When he left, he complained, "A math genius, here to be a supervisor... you are underestimating your talent!"

"I C..."

Fan Lei almost blurted out a national curse. When he saw that Wei Shiqing had already walked far away, he muttered depressedly, "Professor Wei is so incompetent. How long has it been? Are you still joking about this?"

Wei Shiqing was much more depressed than him.

Both are scientific research institutions in the School of Life Sciences. The Microbiology Technology Laboratory and the Institute of Biomedicine are very different. The Institute of Biomedicine has made heavyweight achievements for several consecutive years and has won the first prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award. There are also projects like 2CV. -Binghydrogen molecules and Tianqing proteins are important discoveries of the most important infectious diseases in the world and can also create huge economic benefits.

The current Biomedical Research Institute has actually surpassed the Medical Laboratory of Shuimu University and the Affiliated Laboratory of Xiecheng Hospital to become the number one medical research institution in the country.

This is not the first in name, but the first in reality.

Regardless of the size of the institution, the level of R\u0026D personnel, scientific research funding, or even reputation, biomedical research has truly become the number one.

The Microbiology Technology Laboratory has not changed much compared to a few years ago. They have made a major discovery about the controllable mutation of viruses, but the research has been progressing slowly so far, and there are no outstanding results.

What's the difference between the two?

"Zhao Yi!"

Wei Shiqing thought about this name with depression. He didn't know when he returned to the Microbiology Technology Laboratory. He raised his head and saw a student coming out.

It seems...a bit familiar?

"You are that... that..." Wei Shiqing pointed at the student and said it for a long time but still didn't say it.

"Professor Wei, my name is Li Renzhe!" Li Renzhe reminded cheerfully.

"Yes, Li Renzhe. You said it just as I remembered it." Wei Shiqing said with a smile, "You are Zhao Yi's roommate, right?"

Li Renzhe said with some regret, "After graduation, we are no longer together."

"I have an impression of you. Are you here...?"

"Look for my mentor."

Li Renzhe said, "When I registered as a graduate student with Teacher Meng Bin, Teacher Meng asked me to come over and talk in advance about what I will do after admission."

"Oh~"

Wei Shiqing patted Li Renzhe on the shoulder and encouraged, "Meng Bin, I am familiar with him. He is a very responsible teacher. Did you apply for microbiology? Microbiology has a very broad research space. You will be proud of your choice in the future."

"Thanks."

Li Renzhe expressed his sincere thanks.

"By the way." Wei Shiqing suddenly thought of a question, "You and Zhao Yi are roommates, why didn't you choose to major in biomedicine? Our college still has many tutors in this direction." He was referring to the Institute of Biomedicine, which has many researchers. They all take students. In the Institute of Biomedical Sciences, there are more than twenty researchers alone. Even if only a quarter of them take students, the number will overwhelm other fields.

After hearing this, Li Renzhe was stunned for a moment. He had never thought that anyone would ask this, so he subconsciously replied with depression, "Zhao Yi doesn't recruit students. It's also because of him that the biomedical major is so popular. Several of my classmates have applied for it." . The microbiology direction is much better. The score is low. I have consulted and it only takes 50 points to pass the line to get on."

"..."

Although Li Renzhe told the truth, Wei Shiqing felt uncomfortable no matter what he heard.

Is biomedicine a popular field?

Microbiology is a very unpopular field. Almost no one has signed up. How can I get into it if I pass the 50-minute mark? In other words, the microbiology department recruits poor students!

After Wei Shiqing returned to the office, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He simply walked to the large office on the side. When he entered, he found Meng Bin and said, "Teacher Meng!"

"I think we must cultivate high-quality scientific research talents in the field of microbiology so that we can develop better in the future."

"The cultivation of scientific research starts with the students. Teacher Meng, are you going to lead the new class of students soon?"

"Right?" Meng Bin was a little confused.

Wei Shiqing said forcefully, "We must have high requirements for students. Whether it is scientific research or papers, we must be strict and more strict in order to screen out high-standard, high-quality talents!"

"Those who want to mix their certificates must be aware that it is not easy to let them know the direction of microbiology."

"That's all I have to say."

"oh oh."

Meng Bin looked at Wei Shiqing's leaving figure and didn't quite understand why the other party suddenly said this. However, Professor Wei's words were definitely correct. Scientific research in the field of microorganisms is not easy. The operation requirements are very strict, otherwise there will be accidents. All will be fatal.

"It seems that my requirements for this class of students should be stricter."

Meng Bin made his decision very seriously.

at the same time.

Li Renzhe was walking outside the school when he felt a cold wind blowing by. He couldn't help but shrink his neck and felt a bad feeling in his heart.

"Yes, Lao Fan is back. It just so happens that Wen Qian is also off today... No, I'll go back quickly!" Li Renzhe suddenly widened his eyes and ran out of the school door.

…

Half a month later.

International reports on the NP problem have become popular again, because the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton announced that it has confirmed Zhao Yi's proof for the NP problem.

at the same time.

"Annals of Mathematics" has released a new issue. Zhao Yi's proof of the np problem has been published, occupying thirty-seven pages. Compared with the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium, thirty-seven pages is not It's a lot, or even relatively small.

This proof paper is still much more detailed than the proof report released by Fan Lei instead of Zhao Yi at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

Many mathematicians have studied the proof content in the "Annals of Mathematics" to understand or verify Zhao Yi's proof of the NP problem, and more people are paying attention to the news from the Clay Institute.

The Clay Institute, whose full name is the Clay Institute of Mathematics, is one of the world's most authoritative mathematical research institutions, headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Country M.

The Clay Mathematics Institute is best known for the Millennium Prize problem announced on May 24, 2000.

The Millennium Prize puzzle, which consists of seven problems in total, is considered "an important classic problem that has remained unsolved for many years."

The Clay Mathematics Institute announced that the first person to solve any problem will be awarded a $1 million prize, so these seven questions are worth a total of $7 million.

The Np problem is one of the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium. The person who solves it will receive a US$1 million bonus from the Clay Institute of Mathematics. In addition, the Clay Institute itself is authoritative, so many people pay attention to the Clay Institute. Evaluation of Zhao Yi’s proof.

That's important.

Although the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton has determined Zhao Yi’s proof process, which to a certain extent can prove that the proof process is correct and can confirm that the NP problem has been solved, but for the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium, the Clay Institute is more authoritative.

With its award for the Seven Millennium Mathematics Puzzles, the Clay Institute is sure to have something to say on this issue.

While the whole world was paying attention and waiting, the Clay Institute also felt the pressure. In fact, they had been studying Zhao Yi's proof process, but there were several logical points that they were repeatedly scrutinizing. They must ensure that The proof process is absolutely correct.

Because, reputation!

The Clay Institute has a great influence in the field of international mathematics, but there is still a gap compared to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, because they were founded relatively briefly. In the past ten years, there have been two embarrassing incidents. Condition.

One was Wiles' proof of Fermat's conjecture.

The Clay Institute was the first mathematical institution in China to confirm Wiles's proof of Fermat's conjecture. They recognized the proof faster than the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

No one said anything at the time. Later, Zhao Yi proved Wiles's logical error, and the matter was revealed. Many mathematicians thought in retrospect that maybe the institute had not conducted a detailed study of Wiles's proof process. Demonstration, but directly believed in the judgment results of the Newton Institute.

If we do not conduct careful demonstrations and make judgments based on the results of other institutions, what is the point of the existence of the Clay Institute?

Also, it was just two years ago.

The seven major mathematical problems of the millennium are the field of the Clay Institute, and they are recognized as the most authoritative. The first mathematical problem to be solved was the Poincaré conjecture.

The whole world has recognized the Poincaré conjecture, but only the Clay Institute has not announced the results. Three years ago, they finally confirmed that the Poincaré conjecture was proved, but they encountered a mathematical lunatic--

Perelman!

Perelman is a mathematician with a very good personality. After he proved the Poincaré conjecture, some controversy arose during the proof process. He was probably affected by public opinion, or he did not want to participate in other things besides mathematics. He immediately announced his retirement from mathematics.

He turned down Fields!

Three years ago, he turned down a $1 million scholarship from the Clay Institute!

Others have interesting things to say about Perelman, saying that he was the 'ideal scientist', "the ideal scientist who cares about nothing but science." Perelman wanted to live in that ideal world. Although He couldn’t do it, but he wanted to.”

However, the Clay Institute does not want to meet 'mathematical lunatics'. It is difficult for normal people to understand why someone would refuse a million-dollar prize. For the institute that awards the prize, it is embarrassing for the recipient to refuse the prize. In particular, it took them a long time to determine the proof process of the Poincaré Conjecture.

Therefore, some people in the mathematics community believe that the Clay research team is "deliberately delaying" and "does not want to award the award."

Now I'm encountering the same problem again.

The NP problem is solved.

If the Clay research team wants to restore their reputation, they must reach a conclusion as soon as possible. Regardless of whether it is proved to be right or wrong, they must give an explanation, otherwise it may be regarded as "deliberate delay", and some people may even Said they 'embezzled the bonus'.

That’s a big problem!

Director Carlson was also worried about another problem. He walked to the office and asked Hilbert at work, "Do you think our bonus can be awarded this time?"

Hilbert shrugged, "If you want to hold a grand awards ceremony, that's impossible. At most, Zhao Yi will only send someone to receive the award on his behalf."

"If the recognition result is announced and the bonus is directly transferred to Zhao Yi's account, it can probably be awarded?"

"Carlson, I suggest you be fast, otherwise you may have an accident, who knows?"

Tian Gang walked over and said nonchalantly, "There is only one Perelman, not Zhao Yi. You know, he is just a young man in his early twenties. How could he refuse a million-dollar bonus? The whole world knows that, He has no mental problems!"

Carlson felt that what Tian Gang said made sense. Who in his right mind would refuse a million-dollar bonus?

The double monthly tickets are almost gone. If you have a vote, vote for it~~Sell it and it’s cute O(∩_∩)O
