I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 453 Science talent increased by [-]% again!

In order to prove the problem of algebraic additive number theory that "for all natural numbers k, there are infinitely many pairs of prime numbers (p, p + 2k)", that is, the Polignac conjecture, Zink has devoted countless efforts. Since the twin prime number conjecture was proved in August, the research on Polignac's conjecture has not been interrupted.

At this time, Qin Ke had accumulated a lot of knowledge, and the more he wrote, the smoother he was. He found that he liked this kind of exam atmosphere. Surrounded by candidates who were working hard on the questions, his thinking was actually clearer than usual.

Qin Ke even vaguely felt that in the two days of Qiu Saili, he was likely to overcome two key points that were relatively easy.

With the concentration of Qin Ke's concentration, he gradually forgot that he was still taking the exam, and there were only countless calculations related to Polignac's conjecture in his eyes...

He focused on studying Polignac's conjecture, and did not pay attention to the outside world. The candidates in the same examination room always glanced at him unconsciously. Many people saw that he had been writing non-stop, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Continue to frown to do the question.

The two-and-a-half-hour exam is not long or short, and it is difficult to face the large number of questions and the high difficulty of the papers.

Many candidates who signed up for all six subjects and just wanted to try their luck soon found that they could not continue, and simply handed in the papers in advance in about an hour and a half.

Some candidates are self-aware and feel that there is no need to waste time on this subject. It is better to go back to rest early and recharge their batteries for the afternoon subject, so they also get up to hand in the paper.

At noon, when the bell for handing in the papers rang, there were only about one-third of the candidates left in the classroom of Nuoda University.

Qin Ke turned a deaf ear to the ringing of the bell, and he was completely immersed in studying Polignac's conjecture. The draft paper had already been turned into a black piece because he had written it seven or eight times, but all the processes had passed. It was deeply imprinted in his mind.

The examinees who handed in the papers and got up to leave unexpectedly looked at Qin Ke who was still writing. Why did this master of learning keep writing when the bell rang?

But seeing the three invigilators standing next to Qin Ke, they didn't dare to say anything, they just whispered and left the examination room.

Soon Qin Ke was the only candidate left in the examination room.

Of course the invigilators knew that Qin Ke had already prepared the papers, and wanted to remind Qin Ke to hand in the papers, but Qin Ke's expression was too focused, exuding a strange courage, so the invigilators didn't dare to disturb him.

Especially the draft paper that was so densely written and pitch-black, it made people's scalp tingle just looking at it.

After waiting for almost 10 minutes, a professor-like inspector passed by the window and saw three invigilators surrounded a student inside. The student seemed to be still answering the questions, which was a big violation of the rules of the exam room. Frowning, he walked in and said, "What's going on? Didn't it be too early for the submission time..."

Halfway through speaking, he recognized that the surrounded student was Qin Ke, and he was stunned.

"Professor Pan." The three invigilators rushed over and explained the situation in a low voice.

Only then did Professor Pan realize that Qin Ke was not answering the question at all, so he nodded and said softly: "Take his paper and answer sheet first, and hand them in together. I will take care of collecting the draft paper."

A young teacher hesitated and said: "We are afraid that if we go to take his papers, it will disturb his train of thought."

"It's okay, if you want to disturb him, the question I just asked when I came in has already disturbed him." The professor looked at Qin Ke who was still focused and didn't notice the changes in the outside world, and couldn't hide his appreciation in his eyes:
"This kid's concentration is stronger than any student I have ever seen. He is really born to engage in academics and scientific research. He really deserves to be a genius who can win the Chern Mathematics Award in his freshman year. It is a pity that Yanda does not have this Good luck, otherwise, in the next 30 years, our School of Mathematics at Yanda University may not be able to keep pace with the mathematics majors at MIT, Cambridge, and even Princeton..."

The three invigilators were stunned, they didn't expect Professor Pan to think so highly of Qin Ke.

Under Professor Pan's signal, an invigilator quietly collected the papers from the corner of Qin Ke's desk and put them in a sealed bag. Sure enough, Qin Ke was not disturbed during the whole process.

Professor Pan asked the two teachers to take the sealed bags containing all the papers and answer sheets and leave first. He and another invigilator were waiting here to collect the draft paper.

Qin Ke didn't breathe a sigh of relief until more than 20 minutes later, the result was even better than he imagined, the first key difficulty has been successfully overcome by him, and now only the last four difficulties are left!
Only then did he notice that the examination room was empty, almost everyone had left, except for two invigilators standing beside them.

Qin Ke looked up at the hanging clock and found that it was past 12:30. He immediately understood, got up and apologized: "Sorry, two teachers, I didn't pay attention to the time and kept you waiting. Just call me."

Professor Pan felt a little sore from standing up, but seeing Qin Ke's attitude, he felt relieved. He waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and asked with a smile, "We have taken away your answer sheet and paper, and only the draft paper is left. Alright, Qin Ke, what are you writing about?"

Seeing that the professor looked familiar, Qin Ke suddenly remembered, isn't this Professor Pan, the teacher of the elective course "Analytic Number Theory" that he and Ning Qingyun came to Yanda to attend last semester?

"Hello, Professor Pan! I'm just writing some thoughts on Polignac's conjecture."

It is not a secret that Qin Ke is researching the subject of Polignac's conjecture. It is basically known in the mathematics circle, and Professor Pan has naturally heard of it. Take this draft paper back."

The invigilator next to him wondered: "Professor Pan..."

Qin Ke also knew the rules of the examination room, and hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, I have been verifying whether the idea of ​​a certain node is feasible just now, and the conclusion is feasible, that is enough. This draft paper is nothing to me. It's used." He handed the draft paper to the invigilator, and apologized again: "I'm really sorry for making the teachers wait here for so long."

The invigilator glanced at Professor Pan before taking the draft paper from Qin Ke and packing it into a sealed bag.

Professor Pan said with a smile: "We are all from our own family, why are you being polite? You and Ning Qingyun often come to Yanda to attend lectures. In our hearts, we have long regarded you two as our own students, but it is not impossible for you to express your apology." How about giving a lecture on number theory to the students of Yanda University when you have time?"

The invigilator next to him almost gave a thumbs up. This is a level statement. Regardless of whether Qin Ke will jump to Yanda or not, there is no harm in maintaining a good relationship with such a talented student who is destined to shine in the future. And this lecture, I am familiar with it once I come and go, maybe I will have the opportunity to invite Qin Ke to teach at Yanda in the future.

——As a matter of fact, a consensus has already been formed within Yanda University. For Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, we must focus on attracting them, and we must not have any dissatisfaction or contempt for them coming to attend the class, and we must even do our best for them. Create a good listening environment.This attitude of the school is the important reason why the three invigilators dare not disturb Qin Ke's thinking lightly, so as not to annoy him.

Qin Ke is well aware of Yanda's intentions, but he is busy and self-effacing because he is still a freshman whose level is not good enough.

He really wanted to enrich his academic horizons during his freshman and sophomore years, and at the same time enjoy the rare college life, and he has no plans to go to the podium.

Professor Pan laughed: "Qin Ke, you are too modest. I have read your and Ning Qingyun's paper on 'Lime Number Theory's Fourth-Order Transformation Method'. The mathematical method has proved several world-class conjectures including Zhou's conjecture, which really amazes me. With your current level of mathematics, it is not difficult for us to become a full professor at Yanda University."

Qin Ke was stunned: "The paper has been sent out? Oh, by the way, today is March 3rd."

He actually received an email from the "Annual of Mathematics" at the beginning of the month, which mentioned that the paper had passed peer review and was about to be published. Forgot about it.

"It takes about two days to get it in China, but the "Annual of Mathematics" has been released and sold in the West early this morning, and the official website has also released an electronic subscription version simultaneously. Subscribed, I believe that there are many mathematics people like me who are looking forward to this paper. Speaking of this issue of "Annual of Mathematics", only six academic papers have been published, because the paper co-authored by you and Ning Qingyun is too long From this, it can be seen that the Annals of Mathematics attaches great importance to your paper."

It is not surprising that such important papers involving world-class conjectures have been repeatedly reviewed by a large number of experts for a year or so. Because most of the content of Qin Ke’s thesis was explained at Princeton’s annual academic report, and most of the experts who are qualified and capable to review this paper are present. The paper submitted this time is just to sort out the content of the report It is written into a text version and has a detailed description of the "fourth-order transformation method of Lime Number Theory". It is not surprising that the review speed is relatively fast.

Qin Ke's heart skipped a beat. The publication of the thesis meant that there would be new rewards for the system's "Grade Improvement". After a few polite words with Professor Pan, he took all his documents and, under Professor Pan's regretful eyes, left.

Taking back his phone, Qin Ke quickly opened the official website of the Annual Mathematics, and sure enough, he saw the cover of the latest issue on the front page, with the title of his and Ning Qingyun's paper imprinted on it.

Real hammer!
Almost at the same time, Qin Ke heard a system prompt:
"Congratulations to the host, you have proved 'there are infinitely many Mersenne prime numbers', 'there are infinitely many prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence', 'Zhou's conjecture', 'Brocar's Conjecture' and 'Jepoff's Conjecture', and successfully published papers in the top international mathematics journals, academic achievements have been recognized by the international mathematics community, the system is rated as 'grade' and 'S+ grade', and the function of 'grades make me improve' takes effect, Your academic points (mathematics) +1000! Additional rewards increase science talent by 10%!"

"Mathematics level: master level, next level: grand master level, upgrade progress: 3122/10000"

A full 1000 academic points!
Qin Ke was very excited. You must know that when the twin prime number conjecture was proved, the system only rewarded 200 academic points. At this time, it has been multiplied by five times, which is quite generous. After all, Zhou’s conjecture, cloth Rocard's conjectures are world-class conjectures one level lower than the twin prime conjectures.

What excites Qin Ke the most is the 10% bonus for science talents.

Originally, his science talent value was 600, but now it has been increased by 10% to 660, which is one step closer to the latest upper limit of 720!
The effect of the 10% increase in science talent is still a bit obvious. Qin Ke feels that his brain is as clear and fresh as a young leaf that has just been watered by spring rain. Also swept away.

Come on, try to figure out the Polignac conjecture as soon as possible!

……

It became quiet outside the examination room, and most of the candidates from Qingmu University had already left, only Ning Qingyun, Jiang Zhenjie, Ximen Hui, and Wei Yuanfu, the dean of the Department of Mathematics, remained.

Gan Zhihang also came out a bit late, he walked over with a stiff face, and asked Ning Qingyun who was checking the answers for Jiang Zhenjie and Ximen Hui: "Ning Qingyun, how many questions did you do in the morning paper?"

Ning Qingyun still had a cold and quiet expression towards the unfamiliar boys, and said lightly: "It's all done."

The corners of Gan Zhihang's eyes twitched, and he asked again incredulously: "Is everything done?"

Ning Qingyun nodded.

Gan Zhihang was silent for a while, then looked at the two "little characters" Jiang Zhenjie and Ximenhui, the corners of Ximenhui's mouth curled up: "I made ten questions."

Jiang Zhenjie's answer was also straightforward: "Ten and a half questions."

Seeing that Gan Zhihang's face became ugly, Ximenhui immediately made up his knife and said, "We checked the answer with Qingyun, basically there is nothing wrong or missing."

Jiang Zhenjie continued grinning and stabbing: "Senior Gan, how many questions did you solve?"

Normally, Gan Zhihang would not pay attention to the questions of these "students", but what the two of them said just now really hit him a little bit, and he left a sentence of "nine and a half questions" in embarrassment, then turned and left.

Jiang Zhenjie and Ximenhui looked at each other and smiled, Ximenhui also attacked with a poisonous tongue, pouted and said: "Look at his back, does it look like a dog?"

Jiang Zhenjie glanced at Wei Yuanfu next to him, coughed and said, "Thank you Brother Ke for giving us special training, otherwise I guess I can solve seven questions at most."

Ximenhui also came to his senses, and echoed, "Yes, Qingyun, thank you to your family, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get such good grades in the exam. Come on, why hasn't Brother Ke come out yet?"

Jiang Zhenjie looked at his watch and said unexpectedly: "It's been more than half an hour after the exam, and I haven't seen Brother Ke yet. Will Brother Ke hand in the test paper and leave early?"

Wei Yuanfu shook his head: "I've been here all this time, and I didn't see Qin Ke come out."

He was a little nervous. He saw that Ning Qing handed in the paper in about two hours, and he looked relaxed. He asked how the exam was going, but after Ning Qingyun gave him an OK gesture, he became excited.

Ning Qingjun said that there is no problem. Wouldn't it be easier for Qin Ke, who is even stronger?

Who knew that Qin Ke would not come out after waiting and waiting. Until now, almost all the candidates had left the field, but Qin Ke was still not seen.

No surprise, right?

Ning Qingyun also became worried: "Director Wei, I'll go in and look for Qin Ke."

Wei Yuanfu hurriedly said: "Let me go, you, a candidate, will go in to make trouble after handing in the paper, it will be easier for me to negotiate as the team leader..."

Several people were talking, Ximen Hui pointed to the distance and said, "Brother Ke is back!"

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and they saw Qin Ke trotting out.

Qin Ke said apologetically, "Sorry for the long wait."

Wei Yuanfu couldn't help asking: "Qin Ke, why did you come out so late?"

Qin Ke briefly explained a few words. Wei Yuanfu was a little bit dumbfounded when he heard that he was delving into Polignac's conjecture in the examination room, but he was completely relieved and didn't have to ask Qin Ke how he did in the exam.

At noon, Wei Yuanfu insisted on inviting a few people to dinner. It was interesting to say that the director of the Department of Mathematics of Qingmu University invited four students from the Department of Physics to have lunch in a private room in the canteen of Yan University.

During the meal, Wei Yuanfu received a call and his expression became strange.

He put down his phone and looked at Qin Ke: "Qin Ke, there is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
