Chapter 1029

Just like the mathematics world that has been boiling with Riemann's conjecture, the clincia Hotel, which is holding the IMU conference, is like the epitome of the whole mathematics world, where people can be heard everywhere talking about this matter.

Originally, this session of the IMU conference was also affected by a heavy haze due to sudden changes, but in front of Riemann's conjecture about the problem of this century, no matter how huge the haze, it seems to be insignificant

"Have you heard? The Riemann conjecture has been proved! "

"Really? It's not like the last time, is it a Wulong? This is the first person to claim to have proved Riemann's conjecture. "

"I can only tell you that it's probably two digits, maybe three digits But this time it's different! The author of the paper is Professor Lu! It is said that inspired by Ms. Willa puyoi's 45 minute report, he finally completed the final step of the proof! The paper was on arXiv by him yesterday God, you haven't heard of the whole discussion of mathematical interpretation? "

"I can't believe it! Riemann conjectures Do you think if he proves it, will the International Federation of mathematicians make an exception to award him two fields prizes? "

"There is no doubt that Riemann conjectures that it deserves such honor But what's the point? If he really proves Riemann's conjecture, why don't we just set up a separate award under his name? "

"I heard that this afternoon is his 60 minute report meeting So it's no wonder that he will arrange his report at the last session of the IMU conference. "

"Do you think he will temporarily change the contents of the report?"

"I don't know! But I can be sure that if I miss this report, it will be a loss for my whole life! "

There was a lot of discussion in the hotel.

Whether it's a coffee shop, a restaurant, or an executive lounge, there's a lot of discussion about this happening in someone's place.

At present, no one in the academic circle has made a statement on the content of this paper, and most of them haven't even finished it.

Therefore, for those who pay attention to the progress of this matter, but are unable to nibble at the paper, the importance of the 60 minute report meeting in the afternoon is particularly prominent.

Whether or not Lu Zhou will temporarily change the content of the report meeting, it is certain that since he chose to release the paper at this time, he would not say nothing about the paper

On the other side, the cafe of the hotel.

It took a lot of effort to get in touch with Lu Zhou's student, Qin Yue, who taught in Princeton, and Wang Shicheng, who invited him to meet in the cafe, said anxiously.

"Have you met Professor Lu? I haven't found him for a long time. I can't find his room number. Do you know where he is now? "

If it wasn't for such an accident, Wang Shicheng wouldn't want to see the guy he hated.

But now, not for himself, but for the future of the Chinese mathematics community, he has to meet that person.

Looking at the eager Academician Wang Shicheng, Qin Yue hesitated a little.

"No But I think he should be in the hospital. "

Wang Shicheng was stunned, but he didn't expect such an answer.

"Hospital?"

Qin Yue nodded his head and said, "well, Miss Willa puyoi is his most proud student."

"He was in the hospital at such an important time..." Wang Shicheng paced back and forth. After a few turns, he stamped his feet. Finally, he sighed heavily and shook his head. "Ah! Forget it. I don't think it's too late now. The afternoon report meeting will begin. "

Looking at the old man with a puzzled face, Qin Yue pushed down his glasses and said.

“…… What are you looking for him for? "

Academician Wang Shicheng widened his eyes and said: "this is related to the future of our Chinese mathematics circle. Is it OK? Now the whole world is paying attention to this matter. At least we have to ask him how certain he is

Qin Yue thought for a moment and said, "if you are worried about this I don't think it's necessary. "

Wang Shicheng was a little shocked, and said: "well What do you mean? "

Qin Yue went on seriously: "Professor, if he is not 100% sure, he will not release an academic achievement with obvious controversy."

"So it's not necessary for you to ask him how certain he is."

"For him, there must be 10% assurance that the preprint will be hung on arXiv."

……

It's not just the hotel that's been talked about.

The entrance to the clincia hotel is now packed with broadcast vehicles of major media.

Although mathematics is a distant topic for the public, Riemann conjecture is different.

The precipitation of time and the legends surrounding it, as well as the huge bonus of one million dollars, all of which give it a different meaning from the general mathematical problems.Just like Professor wiles, who was first published in time.

If someone really succeeds in proving Riemann's conjecture, there is no doubt that his picture will not only appear on the cover of time, but also become the most outstanding mathematician of this century - and not one of them.

Even though, the 21st century has just passed by a fifth.

Reporters with long guns and short guns tried to rush into the hotel, but unfortunately they were stopped by the big men standing at the door.

"We are BBC reporters. This is my press card. Please let us in!"

"This is the Federal Security Agency, and the order we have is that no one can enter except the scholars invited by the Congress. If you want to go in, please contact the Organizing Committee of the general assembly to get admission. "

"We will contact the Organizing Committee of the General Assembly later. In fact, my assistant is already doing this. Please do me a favor. Let's go first. Now the whole world is waiting for the result of whether Riemann's conjecture is proved."

This sentence obviously didn't move the guard standing at the door. The big Russian just threw an inhuman refusal.

"It has nothing to do with us."

In addition to the reporters who blocked the door, there were also scholars who came by air from a long distance.

As a matter of fact, this session of IMU conference is coming to an end. As soon as tomorrow's closing ceremony is over, the venue of the next Congress has been announced. Are scholars from all over the world going back to their homes? It's obviously too late to come to the IMU Congress now.

However, these scholars did not come to the IMU conference.

Compared with the insignificant closing ceremony tomorrow, the upcoming 60 minute report meeting is their real concern

Dragging the suitcase to the door of the hotel, Professor Tao Zhehuan, finally squeezed in from the crowd, quickly passed the security check procedure, sorting out the crooked collar while entering the hotel.

Although he didn't sign up for the IMU conference, it's no problem for a knowledgeable and well-known scholar like him to greet the Organizing Committee of the conference and get a vacant room.

However, thanks to his early start, when he sent the email to Professor Holden, it was said that only two rooms were reserved for two days later.

And the day before that paper was put on arXiv, yesterday, the number was still two digits

Just passing by the lobby of the hotel, I saw Professor Tao coming in from the door. Professor feverman's face immediately showed a look of surprise.

"You're here?"

The distance from Los Angeles to St. Petersburg is not close.

With a natural tone, Tao chuxuan smiled and said, "of course, how can I miss this kind of thing?"

When he had fixed his mind and looked at the computer bag he was carrying, Professor feverman continued: "I guess you have read the paper on the plane. You should study more about number theory than me. I am curious What do you think of the paper? "

Tao Zhehuan shook his head and said: "there are several questions. I don't understand the core argument part very much. The time is too short, but the flight is only a dozen hours, and I have to adjust the time difference This damn jet lag makes me just want to doze off now. I hope I don't fall asleep for a while. "

Professor feverman said with a smile, "Professor Lu's speech can make you sleep?"

Slightly Leng next, Tao zhe Xuan immediately smiled to touch the back of the head spoon.

"That's right."

If the key moment that determines the future of mathematics can fall asleep

Needless to say, he has to admire his nerve.

He exchanged greetings with Professor feverman. Just as Professor Tao was going to check in at the front desk, he suddenly saw an unexpected figure in the corner of the lobby.

I saw the middle-aged man with a beard, thin hair and even funny drape behind, explaining something to the staff of the hotel. Maybe it's because his maverick appearance is really out of line with the atmosphere here, and the security guard next to him often throws a warning line of sight at him.

Noticing the surprised expression on Professor Tao's face, Professor feverman asked curiously.

"What's the matter?"

“…… It's nothing. It's just an accident. "

Determined to calm down, Tao Zhechuan took back his sight from there, looked at professor feverman and said with a smile.

"Sure enough, our Professor Lu is charming."

"I didn't expect even that man to come."

……

The report will start in an hour.

Lu Zhou, who came back from the hospital, locked himself in his room.

Now the whole clincia hotel is shrouded in a huge atmosphere.

Almost the world's top scholars are looking to the IMU conference in St. Petersburg, either people are already on the spot or on the wayAnd it's not just the industry's attention.

The discussion on that paper has already spread from mathover flow, an academic forum for the industry, to social platforms for the general public, such as twitter, Facebook and Weibo.

Whether it's serious discussion or fun, there's no doubt that the whole world is paying attention to this issue and whether the proposition of this century has been answered.

If ordinary people, in the face of this huge pressure, it is not easy to maintain the normal breath and heart rate, and adjust the mentality when on stage.

But for the land boat that has been used to seeing the big field, the feeling is just like that.

It may be debatable whether Riemann's conjecture is proved or not for the mathematical community, and it will take time for the whole academic community to accept his paper.

But for the boat itself

Since even the system from the future or higher civilization has determined that his proof is logically consistent, whether others can understand his process, in fact, he is not particularly concerned.

Besides, there is another important thing waiting for him to do.

Standing in front of the floor to floor window of the room, overlooking the media broadcast car crammed with the door of the hotel downstairs, Lu Zhou takes out his mobile phone and calls Chen Yushan, who is far away in China.

"Hello? What's the matter? It suddenly occurred to me to call. "

Lu Zhou thought about it and said, "how much money do I have?"

Hearing this, Chen Yushan was slightly stunned, and then gave her forehead a headache.

“…… How do I know if your savings are in your account? However, if you are asking about the funds in the company's account, I can ask the accountant to make a copy - "br >

" can a hundred million be taken out? "

“…… I doubt you're teasing me, "Chen Yushan said speechlessly." I'm afraid it's a little bit troublesome for you to say that one billion of working capital can't be taken out You let me go. "

Upon hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou subconsciously said: "it is How can I do that? "

He doesn't run the company.

Without the help of a trusted person, many things will become troublesome.

Hearing Lu Zhou's subconscious reaction, Chen Yushan leaned up and leaned on the office chair in a good mood.

"Come on, I guess you have to ask me for help. I'm also curious about what it's like to spend so much money all at once. "

“…… Not all of a sudden. However, it's really troublesome. "

It took about five minutes for Lu Zhou to explain his mind.

After hearing what Lu Zhou said on the phone, Chen Yushan took a long time to digest the huge amount of information.

"I see what you mean That student is very important to you. "

Lu Zhou: "well, this may sound crazy, but it may be the only way to save her."

Silence for a while, Chen Yushan sighed.

"I see. I'll do what you say. As for the success... "

Lu Zhou: "don't worry, I'm in charge of technology."

After making this call, Lu Zhou then made several more calls, some to acquaintances of Shangjing 301 Hospital and some to higher research institutes.

He explained the situation as succinctly as possible. Just when the last phone call was hung up, there was a knock at the door.

He went to open the door and saw the young man who took him to the lecture hall No. 7 a few days ago, standing at the door with a stiff face, looking at him and saying respectfully, "respect Professor Lu Zhou, Professor Holden asked me to inform you that your report will start in 30 minutes. If you are ready, you are suggested to go at least 15 minutes in advance."

Looking at the time, Lu Zhou thought that it was almost time to pass, so he nodded his head.

"I see."

"Since it's about to start, let's go now."

It's better to settle this matter early or go on the road early.

Sixty minute report meeting.

I believe it should be enough.
