DeWitt rolled his wheelchair to the stage and took the microphone from the student.

"I received a lot of problem-solving emails from friends this morning. The submission time is very intensive. First of all, I would like to announce the three scholars who have won seats at the DeWitt dinner tonight."

"First, Evariste Galois! Are you there?"

In the front row, a young man with a goatee stood up, his voice trembling with excitement, "It's me! Thank you Mr. DeWitt!"

"Very well, very well, please sit down!" DeWitt said with a kind smile.

There was a burst of applause on the field, and many envious and jealous eyes were cast on Galois. Galois raised his hand to rub his eyes, and his eyes turned red.

Song He clapped absently, feeling secretly nervous.

The fried dumpling Ah San next to him kept smiling, looking confident, and stretched out his hands to adjust his clothes and hairstyle.

"Second, Catalina!" DeWitt continued to read the name.

Amid thunderous applause, Catalina stood up from the front row.

Song He took a serious look. This was the first time he had seen Catalina in person since the opening of the summit. She was dressed in a dark blue women's formal dress, with long and slightly curly hair, and a pretty white face!

Sekov sat next to Katerina, applauding like crazy, wanting to smash his hands!

"Thank you! Thank you Mr. DeWitt!" Catalina's ears turned red with excitement.

"Very good, please sit down!" DeWitt nodded.

The applause died down and the atmosphere in the lecture hall became extremely tense.

Especially the young scholars who handed over the problem-solving emails were almost too embarrassed to speak out and stared at the stage.

Only the last spot left! Who caught the last train?

"Third place...Tang Jiang!" DeWitt tried his best to enunciate and speak as clearly as possible.

The scholars on the scene were slightly confused. The first two were already well-known in the field of mathematics, but Tang Jiang had never heard of him. Who was he?

Hundreds of people turned and looked around, looking for the last lucky person to catch the last train.

Song He breathed a sigh of relief and stood up suddenly, "It's me! Thank you, Teacher DeWitt! It's a great honor!"

DeWitt pushed up his glasses, looked at the unfamiliar Tang Jiang carefully, nodded with a smile, "Very good, please sit down!"

Song He sat down, and hundreds of eyes were still focused on him, including curiosity, envy, jealousy, and surprise.

Jianbao Ah San turned his head and stared at Song He with wide eyes, dumbfounded.

Song He thought that Jianbao Ah San would regret it, but he missed it despite being advised by an expert. If he had listened to his own advice in the morning, he might be able to catch up with DeWitt's dinner quota.

But I never expected that Jianbao Ah San, after being stunned for a moment, whispered:

"Mr. Tang, were you inspired by my problem-solving process? Then I have a share of the credit for solving the problem, right? Can you introduce me to Mr. DeWitt?"

Song He almost vomited blood, third brother, you are invincible!

In the front row, Katarina and Shekov turned back together to look at Song He in the middle of the lecture hall.

Catalina originally looked surprised, but was stunned when she turned around. Then she whispered in Shekov's ear, "Is this Tang Jiang Song He? It doesn't look like him at all? Song He is obviously very nice to look at."

"What's good-looking?" Shekov shook his head and denied, "That's him! Let me tell you a secret. In fact, when he videos with you, he always uses deep beauty. The effect is tantamount to plastic surgery, which is the legendary photo scam! His truth My appearance is not as good as mine!"

"Really or not?" Katerina was stunned.

"Seeing is believing!" Shekov raised his chin, "Look at his appearance, does he look handsome?"

Katerina was lost in thought.

In the back corner, Lou Jinghui and his four children were listening.

Ning Mo and Zhang Zhilei were stunned and completely shocked. They had heard about the legend of DeWitt's dinner, but they never expected to see Song He selected with their own eyes!

"Fuck, that's awesome! That's awesome!" Ning Mo couldn't help but repeat.

"You're crazy, you're crazy. At this age, you can have dinner at DeWitt, which is a world record!" Zhang Zhilei covered her face.

Zhao Yiyi and Ding Yangze were also a little dazed, and then they both lowered their heads and each held their mobile phones to search for DeWitt's resume.

"No need to search, DeWitt's status can be summed up in one sentence. He is one of the ten most knowledgeable people in mathematics on the planet." Lou Jinghui whispered, "You can go out and brag in the future. Your mentor and the emperor of mathematics will eat it." After dinner, we were even treated by the Emperor of Mathematics."

"Damn it." Zhao Yiyi was dumbfounded, "Has Teacher Song...Tang's circle reached this level?"

"It's outrageous. Who dares to believe this at the age of a high school graduate?" Ding Yangze said softly.

Lou Jinghui also sighed deeply, looking in awe, "Yes, who dares to believe this..."

DeWitt lit a cigarette and waited for the commotion in the lecture hall to subside before continuing:

"Young friends who didn't get the chance tonight, don't be discouraged. This year I asked a total of four solutions to this question, and Galois, Catalina, and Tang Jiang only used the same solution. In other words, everyone still has Three chances!"

"I hope to see more friends who use new methods to solve problems tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I will host a grand banquet for everyone!"

“Let’s get back to the point, let’s talk about the cutting-edge progress in several popular fields of mathematics.”

DeWitt prepared a PPT, and this time he explained page by page according to the PPT.

There are many types of lectures at academic conferences. Some are serious and in-depth discussions of a problem, such as yesterday's lecture filled with blackboard steps, while others are general analysis of the development of large industries, such as today's lecture.

As a god at the top of the mathematical circle, DeWitt has disciples all over the world, and his disciples are often heavyweights in the mathematical circle. Therefore, he is well aware of the progress of human mathematical research!

DeWitt listed new developments in various small directions of mathematics one by one, and occasionally mentioned the names of some scholars with outstanding achievements and said a few words specifically.

Song He listened and heard a familiar name.

"The young mathematician Xiang Xiaotong published a paper on the Kratz conjecture last year. Although it did not completely prove the Kratz conjecture, it is already the strongest proof so far, and he obtained 99.99% of the Kratz sequence with an initial value of trillions. , and concluded that the final result was less than 200, the method she used was to reasonably adjust the weights."

"I looked through this person's papers in recent years and found more practical mathematical research. Later I learned that her main job is actually a brain science expert. This is a pity. If this person can completely shift his energy to cutting-edge In terms of mathematical research, he will definitely be a strong contender for the Fields Medal. Is Ms. Xiang Xiaotong here today?"

A group of people in the lecture hall looked at each other in silence.

DeWitt said nothing more. Not all math greats come to the summit, and absences are common.

"Then there is the young mathematician Song He." DeWitt continued, pressing the remote control and changing the PPT page.
