From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 104 A True Master Always Keeps the Heart of an Apprentice

In addition, each mathematician conference basically only arranges 21 people, and the conference is held every four years, with an average of only five or six people per year. Therefore, a one-hour report is very important for every mathematician. All in all, it is a great honor.

Just look at how many Chinese mathematicians can get this kind of invitation.

There are only seven mathematicians working full-time in mainland China, and there is only one old Mr. Peng Shige among the mathematicians working full-time in mainland China.

Now, although Lin Xiao's one-hour report is different from the normally invited one-hour report, the form is exactly the same.

Take another look at his youthful face. The youngest of these mathematicians are in their 30s. All of a sudden, there is nothing but envy or jealousy.

And Lin Xiao was also very surprised. Didn't expect to make such an adjustment to his report?
He felt a little flattered. He was ready to condense the content of the 45-minute report, such as making some steps easy to pass.

However, now that the time has been extended for such a long time, the time is relatively more generous.

He smiled and said, "I don't have any other requirements, so that's it. Thanks to the organizing committee and the International Mathematical Union for the arrangement."

"Then thank you for your understanding."

Emmanuel Carneiro nodded, and then looked at the other reporters, who still had the expressions of 'I'm not Sister Li'.

Emmanuel Carneiro smiled, and then explained: "The other speakers may be more confused about why Mr. Lin Xiao's report was arranged in this way. In fact, it is because Mr. Lin Xiao's report solved a well-known problem in our mathematics circle. It is a difficult problem, that is, the distribution law of Mersenne prime numbers."

Hearing Emmanuel Carneiro's explanation, the reporters who didn't understand the expressions on their faces suddenly became stunned.

Distribution of Mersenne primes?
Can this problem really be solved?

"The manuscript has been approved by a total of five professors, including Professor Peter Sarnac, Professor Pierre Deligne, and Professor Enrique Pompieri. It just so happens that I have also done some research in the field of number theory. , so I have to admit that this is obviously an extremely important achievement for the mathematics community.”

"If the speakers are interested, I recommend everyone to take a look at that time. Oh, by the way, we have uploaded Mr. Lin Xiao's report to the official website, and now it can be downloaded in the column of special lectures. Everyone can Look."

Now, the expressions of the speakers changed from stunned to unbelievable. Have so many well-known professors in the mathematics world recognized this achievement?
They couldn't help looking at Lin Xiao, at his young face.

Generally, if young people of this age have made such achievements, they would have already turned their noses into the sky, but they didn't see anything on Lin Xiao's face, even after Lin Xiao felt their eyes , and smiled politely at them, with a very humble attitude, showing no complacency at all.

They couldn't help but appreciate it.

A true master always maintains the heart of an apprentice.

Lin Xiao may not be called a master yet, but if he can maintain this attitude, his name will probably be engraved on the pyramid of the mathematics world one day for the admiration of everyone in the future.

And only such young people who can maintain humility have made such achievements, and they are willing to admire from the bottom of their hearts.

"I'll take a look when I get back." A professor said immediately, and then he gave Lin Xiao a thumbs up.

Several other reporters also nodded towards Lin Xiao, and some even wanted to ask Lin Xiao whether he is currently an undergraduate student or a graduate student, or has already graduated. If he is an undergraduate student, they all want to ask Lin Xiao Xiao Xiao wants to wait until after graduating from undergraduate to become his own graduate student.

But then I thought about it, students of Lin Xiao's level may not be able to accommodate in my small place, and those who can teach Lin Xiao must at least be at the level of a Fields Medal winner.

And it has to be the kind of person who is particularly awesome in the Fields Medal, the kind who can continue to produce results after receiving the Fields Medal, otherwise, I'm afraid I don't know what to teach when teaching Lin Xiao.

Seeing the reactions of these reporters, Emmanuel Carneiro also felt emotional in his heart.

Strictly speaking, the present speakers all have a higher status in the mathematics world than him, and he was only arranged because of his status as the host.

And when he read Lin Xiao's thesis, after reading it once, he found that he couldn't fully understand it. He had to read it several times before he could figure it out.

Alas, it was really hard for him to understand at the time, how the heads of these math geniuses look like they are equipped with an alien brain.

Shaking his head slightly, he stopped thinking about it and continued to announce other matters of the meeting.

Time passed quickly, and the meeting ended after about 20 minutes.

However, although the meeting ended, none of the thirteen speakers was in a hurry to leave. Instead, they began to communicate and get to know each other.

The Congress of Mathematicians takes on such a role. In addition to academic exchanges, it is a place for every mathematician to meet new friends and gather with old friends from all over the world.

Especially since everyone is studying number theory, there are more topics to talk about.

Of course, Lin Xiao also became the object they all rushed to know.

After all, in their eyes, Lin Xiao seems to have become a rising star in the mathematics world with a bright future, and if they can make friends with him, if he is a great future, won't he have a friend that he can brag about to others? ?
Otherwise, why do many people like to say "I have a friend" when chatting.

Lin Xiao naturally got acquainted with these professors. These professors also asked him how many social accounts such as Facebook or Twitter. Unfortunately, he did not register for these things, so he could only leave his email address as a contact. way out.

Just like that, after a brief exchange, they looked at the time and found that it was getting late, so they said goodbye and left here.

But after Lin Xiao left the meeting room, the staff member who stopped him suddenly called out to him: "Mr. Lin Xiao!"

Lin Xiao was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and glanced: "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

The staff said: "Professor Carneiro asked me to tell you that you don't need to worry about whether other participants will not know your report due to temporary arrangements. Please rest assured that we will Inform all participants of this information to ensure that every participant can know about it."
