The Science Fiction World of Xueba

"Pang Xuelin?"

Qu Feng looked at Wu Kangyu and Zhu Hanliang suspiciously and said, "What charades are you two playing?"

Wu Kangyu quickly handed the two papers in his hand to Qu Feng and said, "Look at the author's name!"

Qu Feng took the paper and took a look: "Pang Xuelin... Xuelin Pang... Pang Xuelin?!"

"Fuck!"

The expression on Qu Feng's face also became similar to that of Wu Kangyu and Zhu Hanliang.

Qu Feng turned his head to look at Wu Kangyu, then at Zhu Hanliang, and asked, "Do you know this person?"

Wu Kangyu said: "This is a researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of Lincheng University. He just submitted two papers to us..."

"Researcher at the Institute of Mathematics, Forest City University?!"

Qu Feng was slightly taken aback. Even if the Department of Mathematics of Forest City University is not ranked well in China, how could there be a top mathematician capable of solving Fermat's conjecture?

Wu Kangyu said: "This researcher Pang Xuelin's level is still acceptable. I think it doesn't matter whether the other party is the Xuelin Pang that the Americans say, it's better for us to verify it first!"

Qu Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's right, give me the paper, and I'll find the editor-in-chief!"

"Wait, let's go together!"

Wu Kangyu and Zhu Hanliang also didn't want to miss such a moment. If the Xuelin Pang that the Americans said was really the Pang Xuelin researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of Forest City University, it would be awesome.

Soon, the three came to the office of Yang Shuo, editor-in-chief of "Acta Mathematica Sinica".

Yang Shuo was on the phone with someone, as if he was entrusting others to help find out who Pang Xuelin was.

Seeing the three of them coming in, Yang Shuo said strangely, "You three, don't go to work well, what can I do for you?"

Qu Feng raised the papers in his hand, and said with a smile, "Editor-in-Chief, please look at the names of the authors of these two papers."

Yang Shuo was taken aback for a moment, took the paper and read it: "Researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of Forest City University, Pang Xuelin... Xuelin Pang!"

Yang Shuo reacted instantly,

Looking up at the three of them, the voice suddenly rose several tens of decibels.

Qu Feng said with a smile: "Editor-in-Chief, this is the paper submission that Lao Wu just received. If you say this is Lin Pang, could it be this person?"

Yang Shuo thought for a while and said, "I'll call Luo Jianzhong, the dean of the Mathematics Department of Forest City University now."

As he spoke, he found an address book from the drawer, found Luo Jianzhong's phone number, and dialed it.

...

Forest City University, Luo Jianzhong's office.

Luo Jianzhong was chatting with Wang Chongqing about Pang Xuelin.

"Old Wang, when will Teacher Pang come to the school? The teachers in the department have asked me several times, and they want to listen to Teacher Pang's lecture again."

Wang Chongqing said with a wry smile: "I guess it will be March at the earliest. My Xiaohui just came back from Anhe two days ago. I heard that Mr. Pang was stabbed in the left hand to catch the traffickers. The wound has not fully healed yet!"

Luo Jianzhong was slightly taken aback, and asked, "Ms. Pang didn't suffer any other injuries, did he?"

Wang Chongqing said: "It's nothing serious. I heard that their Lingziding Village Primary School will be demolished and a new Hope Primary School will be built. Teacher Pang is probably busy during this time. But I also heard from Xiaohui that he would Come to the provincial capital in mid-March later."

Luo Jianzhong nodded and was about to speak when the phone on the desk rang suddenly.

Luo Jianzhong was slightly taken aback, picked up the phone and said, "Who is there?"

Soon, Luo Jianzhong's face became serious, and he said, "Editor Yang, it's me. You mean Pang Xuelin? Yes, there is such a person in our Institute of Mathematics. What's wrong with him?"

Wang Chongqing couldn't hear the voice on the phone, but from the expression on Luo Jianzhong's face, he could see that something was wrong.

Luo Jianzhong's originally serious expression became a little excited, his face flushed, and the hand holding the phone even trembled uncontrollably.

"Director Yang, I don't know whether Researcher Pang has contributed to the "Annual of Mathematics". Graduated, his actual identity is our primary school teacher in Lingziding Village Primary School, Dayu Township, Anhe County, G Province, and he is not in Lincheng now, so it is difficult to contact him in a short time. His mathematics level is indeed very high. Our school has taught both students and teachers..."

Luo Jianzhong Balabala talked a lot, and told Yang Shuo how Pang Xuelin became a researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of Forest City University, and then hung up the phone.

"Director Luo, what's wrong?"

Luo Jianzhong took a deep breath, the excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed, he stood up and said, "Professor Wang, Teacher Pang... Teacher Pang may have solved Fermat's conjecture!"

"What?"

Wang Chongqing's eyes widened, as if he thought he had auditory hallucinations.

Luo Jianzhong said: "Just now the editor-in-chief of "Acta Mathematica" Yang Shuo called me to ask me about Mr. Pang. Just yesterday, the "New York Times" reported an article on the front page, saying that Chinese mathematician Lin Pang solved the problem. Fermat's conjecture, this result has been confirmed by Professor Pierre Deligne, the dean of the Department of Mathematics at Princeton University and the editor-in-chief of "Annual Mathematics", and related papers will be published in the latest issue of "Annual Mathematics" next month... ..."

An inconceivable look flashed in Wang Chongqing's eyes, and just as he was about to continue asking, the phone rang again.

This time, the caller was the editor-in-chief of "Computational Mathematics", asking similar questions.

...

the capital.

Yang Shuo hung up the call with Luo Jianzhong, subconsciously knocking on the desk with one finger.

The conversation with Luo Jianzhong made Yang Shuo even more surprised.

A 20-year-old high school graduate and elementary school teacher who has a math level comparable to a university professor?

Moreover, he could vaguely feel from Luo Jianzhong's call that the academic level of the other party was even higher than Luo Jianzhong's own.

That's where it gets interesting.

Even if Pang Xuelin is not the prover of Fermat's conjecture, this young scholar deserves the attention of the Chinese mathematics community.

At this time, the phone rang again.

Yang Shuo picked up the phone: "Hello... Oh, Director Li, what... Your correspondent in the United States has obtained Xuelin Pang's contact address from Princeton University? Lingziding Village Primary School, Dayu Township, Anhe County, G Province? Okay, Director Li, I see, just wait a moment, I will call you later!"

After hanging up the phone, Yang Shuo raised his head, his eyes flashed with shock.

Qu Feng, Wu Kangyu and Zhu Han on the side looked at Yang Shuo eagerly and said, "Director, is Xuelin Pang really Pang Xuelin from Forest City University?"

Yang Shuo nodded and said: "No mistake, he is the one who solved Fermat's conjecture! However, Pang Xuelin is only a part-time researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of Lincheng University, and his actual identity is Lingzi, Dayu Township, Anhe County, G Province Dingcun primary school teacher, only 20 years old this year, graduated from high school!"

As soon as the voice fell, a needle drop could be heard quietly in the office for an instant.
