Ultimate Scholar

In the first row of seats in the auditorium, near the middle, sat an old man wearing black-rimmed glasses.

He quietly watched Li Mu's speech on the stage, without showing too many emotions on his face.

At this time, someone next to him asked him: "Professor Zhang, what do you think Li Mu is planning to do?"

"I don't know, just watch quietly and don't think too much."

"The twin prime conjecture is hard, but that doesn't mean it can never be solved."

"It's like hailstorm conjecture."

The old man looked calm.

The person next to him nodded, "That's right."

The old man added another sentence: "Of course, if we start the discussion from the Galois field, it is indeed an interesting angle."

The person next to him nodded: "Indeed, I haven't studied the twin prime number conjecture for a long time, and Li Mu's angle has indeed brought me some inspiration."

For this sentence, the old man didn't respond. While keeping silent, he stared at the blackboard where Li was writing.

If someone has a better understanding of various celebrities in the mathematics world, he can quickly recognize that this old man is Mr. Zhang Yitang who made a huge breakthrough in the twin prime number conjecture.

Zhang Yitang's life has been full of ups and downs, but the so-called late bloomers refer to people like him.

In his early years, he was considered a genius. He entered the School of Mathematics of Shangjing University in 1978. After graduating from his undergraduate degree, he studied under Pan Chengbiao for a master's degree, and then went to study in Rice under the recommendation of the then principal.

However, the experience of studying in Mimi made his life stagnant for half his life.

Because of his doctoral supervisor, he failed to get a recommendation letter from his supervisor after graduation, and therefore no relevant academic unit was willing to accept him.

So much so that he later worked as a delivery man, worked odd jobs in a motel, lived in a basement, wandered, and wandered.

But at the same time, he has never given up on the research of mathematics, and finally completed a huge breakthrough in the twin prime number conjecture in 2013.

His thesis at that time was submitted to the "Annual of Mathematics", and the average receiving time of the "Annual of Mathematics" was two years, but his paper was so rigorous that the reviewers of the "Annual of Mathematics" decided within three weeks Accept his paper.

This speed has created the fastest speed of receiving papers in the 130 years since the "Annual of Mathematics" was founded.

Of course, because of this, the twin prime number conjecture has not only become synonymous with him, but he also pays close attention to the progress of the twin prime number conjecture.

So Li Mu's report, he was not absent at all.

Li Mu successfully proved the hail conjecture before, and now he has set his goal towards the twin prime number conjecture. Zhang Yitang really wants to know if he can create another miracle.

If it can be achieved, it can be regarded as fulfilling one of his wishes - that is to see the solution of the twin prime number conjecture in his lifetime.

Because he wanted to know whether the method he thought of at the beginning could finally solve the twin prime number conjecture under continuous improvement.

If it is another method in the end, then he will be gratified for the mathematics community. The sparks of different ideas finally lead to the same goal, which is the greatest charm of mathematics. As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome .

Of course, if it is finally proved based on his method, he will also be happy, because it means that his original method has unlimited potential.

...

At the same time, in the third row of seats, there were also several young mathematicians quietly watching Li Mu's narration.

"Old Yun, what do you think?" Suddenly a person turned his head to look at the person next to him.

"I'll sit and watch."

The person called Lao Yun replied.

His name is Yun Wei, and he is one of the most accomplished young mathematicians in Huaguo.

He once won the Ramanujin Award and the Scientific Breakthrough Award, and is called the Cloud God by domestic people.

And the few people sitting next to him are not simple, they all come from the golden generation of mathematics at Peking University.

Zhu Wen, Xu Yang, etc., were once dubbed "God" in China.

And the person talking to Yun Wei was Zhu Wen.

Hearing Yun Wei's answer, he said helplessly, "I'm asking what do you think of Galois's idea."

Yun Wei was silent for a while, and then said: "It should be a new method full of characteristics."

"But I haven't done much research on it, so I can't comment."

"But you need to know that this guy has proved the Hail conjecture, who knows what he thinks?"

Zhu Wen fell silent.

Compared with Li Mu, they are all a round older.

Seeing the emergence of such a young genius in China, their hearts were filled with different emotions.

...

People in the auditorium had different ideas, some looked forward to it, and some lamented it.

But none of these affected Li Mu on stage.

The first small blackboard has been filled by him.

Then he started to continue the derivation on the second small blackboard.

The narration in the mouth did not stop at all.

But at the same time, the brain computer, which is still in the state of ultimate overclocking, continues to deduce at the same time.

Deducing the surprise he just discovered.

It was this surprise that made him pause for nearly 20 seconds before his speech began.

As for this surprise, it is a further achievement than proving the twin prime conjecture.

It made his heart feel surging.

Of course, the excitement he felt came from this further surprise, while the excitement felt by the audience off the stage came from what he was writing now.

The second blackboard was finished again, so far, the two small blackboards on the stage were finished.

But Zhang Yitang, who was sitting in the first row, had already sat up straight.

"His method... this method... can you still write it like this?"

Seeing his performance, the people next to him couldn't help but ask, "Professor Zhang, what's wrong?"

But Zhang Yitang didn't answer. He continued to deduce the following in his mind based on what Li Mu wrote, but he found helplessly that if he continued with his ability, he couldn't push it after five steps. down.

He urgently needs to know how Li Mu will proceed.

But Li Mu on the stage, it seems that the blackboard is not enough at this time?

He just wanted to call the staff next to him to push a few small blackboards up, but someone had already shouted before him.

Qiu Chengtong said: "Go get some more blackboards, hurry up."

The staff at the scene were basically student volunteers. Seeing this big guy speak, of course they didn't hesitate. They ran into the backstage immediately and dragged two small blackboards up.

Lian Zhengxing frowned when he saw this, his students were commanded by this surnamed Qiu. \b

However, seeing what Li Mu wrote on the stage, he gave up the entanglement.

He could see that Li Mu had already written the key points.

And sure enough, as he expected, when Li Mu continued to write on the two new blackboards, in less than 10 steps, many mathematicians in the first row immediately opened their eyes wide.

"this……"

They all murmured.

But Zhang Yitang's body suddenly relaxed, and he leaned against the back of the seat again.

"It really is a surprise..."
