The Science Fiction World of Xueba

bang bang bang - bang bang bang -

Early the next morning, Pang Xuelin was woken up by a harsh knock on the door. Looking at the time, it was only half past five.

"Who is it?"

Pang Xuelin went to open the door in a daze, and saw Qi Xin standing quietly at the door in sportswear, and said with a smile: "Student, it's time to run!"

Seeing that Pang Xuelin was still in a daze, Qi Xin pouted and said angrily, "Did you stay up late again last night?"

"Oh, I didn't sleep until two in the morning last night!"

Pang Xuelin yawned.

"Look at you, you forget the time when you're working, forget it, you go on sleeping, I'm going for a run first!"

"Wait!" Pang Xuelin thought for a while and said, "Let's go for a run together, we must persevere in exercising."

When Qi Xin heard this, her eyes suddenly turned into crescents.

Although she faintly felt that there seemed to be some changes in Pang Xuelin, Qi Xin was quite happy to be able to exercise with him in the morning.

After running with Qi Xin and having breakfast, Pang Xuelin returned to the apartment and took another nap.

It wasn't until half past nine that he got up, took a shower, and headed to the classroom with the lesson plans.

He saw the teaching plan in the memo on his mobile phone last night, so he was not worried about delaying work.

There are still disturbances in the classroom. Pang Xuelin also served as a professor at Jiangcheng University in the world of Wandering Earth, but compared to the confusion and depression of college students about the future in Wandering Earth, students in the real world are more lively and carefree.

The whole morning class ended successfully, and Pang Xuelin received a call from Liu Tingbo as soon as he walked out of the classroom.

"Professor Pang, are you free now? Come to my office. There is something I want to discuss with you."

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Twenty minutes later, Pang Xuelin successfully found the location of Liu Tingbo's office.

"Dean Liu, what do you want from me?"

Liu Tingbo handed a beautifully decorated hard paper card to Pang Xuelin, and said with a smile: "This is an invitation letter from the Clay Institute. As long as you agree, they will hold a grand award ceremony in Paris, France on December 1 this year. , and present you with a prize of one and a half million U.S. dollars."

Pang Xuelin took the invitation and opened it.

It was written in Chinese, English and French respectively:

Dear Dr. Pang Xuelin:

Hello!

In view of your outstanding work in the proof of the BSD conjecture, the Clay Institute of Mathematics will hold the BSD conjecture awards conference and mathematics seminar in Paris for you, and sincerely invite you to attend.

The event time is tentatively scheduled for December 1, 2019, from 18:00 to 21:00 at the Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris, France.

If you have any dissatisfaction with the event arrangement, please contact the organizer immediately.

best regards

Clay Institute of Mathematics

Pang Xuelin was slightly taken aback, and asked in confusion: "The Clay Research Institute's prize money is not awarded until the paper has been verified by the mathematics community for two years and there are no problems?"

Liu Tingbo laughed and said: "According to the normal situation, this is the case, but your paper has now been recognized by many big names in the industry, and the expert team inside the Clay Institute of Mathematics has no opinion. Once Perelman had already released them once, they were worried that there would be long nights and dreams, and they couldn’t solve two of the seven millennium problems, and they hadn’t even paid out the bonus yet. So they sent the invitation letter directly to the school. In addition Your work email address should have received the invitation email as well."

Seeing that Pang Xuelin seemed hesitant, Liu Tingbo said with a smile: "Professor Pang, the school's opinion is that if you can go, try to go there, after all, such awards are also a great incentive for the domestic mathematics community.

If you go, the school can arrange a full-time interpreter to accompany you at that time. "

Pang Xuelin pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll email them directly."

Pang Xuelin had no intention of not going, he was not a dead house like Perelman.

What's more, not to mention public travel, at least there are still 1.5 million US dollars!

Next, he wants to produce high-purity carbon nanotubes and graphene materials in the real world, which requires a lot of money. Although the family is not short of money, compared to the huge amount of money required for the research of these two materials , the assets at home can only be regarded as drizzle.

At least as far as Pang Xuelin knew, after he produced high-purity single-walled carbon nanotube materials in the laboratory of Wandering Earth World, the coalition government spent billions of credits to industrialize it.

The purchasing power of credits is similar to that of U.S. dollars in the real world. Therefore, if you want to industrialize it, you can't do it with your father's company alone. Only when you make certain results and introduce government investment will you have likely to succeed.

Seeing Pang Xuelin nodding his head in agreement, Liu Tingbo said with a smile: "In addition, the Institute of Mathematical Sciences is planning to prepare a mathematical science research center named after you, recruiting a group of young scholars from all over the world, and you will serve as the director of the preparatory committee and the director of the center. There are four committees, namely the International Advisory Committee, the Academic Committee, the Postgraduate Working Committee, and the Postdoctoral Committee. They are mainly focused on scientific research and training graduate students. The internal courses are relatively small, without credits, and there are no seminars of the nature of assignments and exams. The courses are very free, and you can quit at any time if you don’t want to continue. The center focuses on number theory, algebraic geometry, differential geometry, and partial differential equations, and strives to become a world-class mathematics research institution within three to five years.”

Pang Xuelin laughed and said, "Dean Liu, you are learning from Mizuki!"

The Yau Mathematics Center of Mizuki has developed very well in recent years and has become one of the world's first-class mathematics research institutions.

Liu Tingbo introduced Pang Xuelin because he borrowed ideas from the development of the Shuimu Mathematics Department.

Liu Tingbo said with a smile: "Plant the plane tree and attract the phoenix. With your current prestige and status, if you don't make good use of it, it will be a waste."

Pang Xuelin nodded and said: "This is no problem, you can arrange it when the time comes, but I can't do much administrative work, and my main energy will still be on research."

Liu Tingbo said: "Don't worry about this, we will set up a special administrative team to be responsible for the logistics support of the mathematics center, you just need to control the overall direction."

Pang Xuelin said: "Come on, tell me about when the formal preparations will start. Although I don't know many calves, the quality is guaranteed. I'll hook you up with a few at that time!"

Liu Tingbo laughed and said, "Professor Pang, with your words, I feel relieved."

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly and said, "Dean Liu, I've finished talking about your business, and I have something to trouble you for."

Liu Tingbo was stunned and said, "What's the matter?"

Pang Xuelin said: "Do you have a master in the field of materials or chemistry? I want to study another graduate student in the field of materials."
