From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

"It's unbelievable that he actually made it!"

"I bought it, temporarily proving such a difficult question makes me wonder if he already has the answer before!"

"I, Cao, actually made this kid succeed, what a stroke of genius!"

In the auditorium, accompanied by warm applause, the people present also expressed their views one after another.

In any case, challenging a world-class difficult problem on the spot and proving it out really made these mathematicians and physicists who are at least ten or even 20, 30 or even more older than Lin Xiao excited. marvel.

Although what Lin Xiao proved in the end was only half of this world-class problem, not all, but even if it was half, the final difficulty was no less than the subjects they were working on.

This kind of courage and courage made them feel sincere admiration for Lin Xiao in their hearts.

In the row where the professors of Shangjing University sat, they looked at the young man who bowed solemnly on the stage. Their hands did not move except for subconscious clapping until a long while later.

Dean Zhao Qi was the first to laugh heartily, and at the same time gave Lin Xiao a thumbs up, regardless of whether he saw it or not, and then praised: "Nice job!"

Thinking about how they were worried that Lin Xiao would prove it, and then let those foreigners take advantage of it in vain. As for whether it is possible for them to go back and follow the idea given by Lin Xiao and complete the proof first, although it is not impossible, but After all, there are a lot of foreigners in this group, and there are many bigwigs among them, so they can't guarantee it.

But now, it seems that they were worried too early. Lin Xiao's ability is worthy of everyone's trust.

This time, they have both face and liking.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qi was even more happy, but at this time, he also saw Wang Changsheng over there also laughed, and suddenly, the joy in Zhao Qi's heart seemed to be cut off in half.

It hurts, it hurts too much.

As for the row of the museum where Wang Changsheng was, that was a joy.

Hey, who would have thought that Lin Xiao would join their academy, and Lin Xiao would make such a big news in the end?
Originally, I thought that Lin Xiao would talk about the combination of graviton and relativity at most in this report, and unify quantum mechanics and relativity first. As a result, Lin Xiao backhanded a double critical attack, and by the way, Yang- The existence of the Mills gauge field and the mass gap problem are proved, and even the mass gap problem is proved on the spot.

The original world-class problem, at this moment, seems to have become an ordinary physics problem on stage in an ordinary classroom.

This wave is not a loss, even if it ends up with that old guy Zhao Qi later.

So the more they thought about it, the happier they became. It was already conceivable that when the news about Lin Xiao becoming a professor in their School of Physics came out, their enrollment this year would definitely explode. It just so happened that it was already mid-June, and the results of the college entrance examination would be released in the latter half of the month. Yes, by then they will definitely be able to compete with several colleges in terms of enrollment.

The more Wang Changsheng thought about it, the happier he became, and suddenly he remembered that Zhao Qi was sitting behind him, so he turned his head and took a look cheerfully, only to see Zhao Qi staring at him as if he was going to eat him, Wang Changsheng was caught by this His gaze was taken aback, but then he turned his head very contentedly.

Well, seeing Zhao Qi suffering, I am happier than he has completed another project, who made that old guy so arrogant back then.

"It's all retribution." Wang Changsheng smiled and shook his head.

On the other side, Maldacena and Witten also had their own expressions on their faces at this time.

Witten clapped his hands and looked at Lin Xiao with admiration and gratitude. He admired Lin Xiao for being able to complete the proof under everyone's gaze, and thanked Yu Lin Xiao for giving him this surprise.

Obviously, he has found what he wants most now from the surprise that Lin Xiao gave him.

Before, he felt that if he wanted to completely solve his current problems, it might take a few months in the short term, but it might take years in the long run. Now, it might be a few weeks, maybe, on his way back. On the plane, it can be done.

On the other hand, Maldacina held his head and looked at Lin Xiao's conclusion on the last blackboard with disbelief.

"Greater than 0...it's really greater than 0."

Finally, he turned his head and glanced at Witten next to him, and said very excitedly: "Witten, are you sure Lin hasn't completed the proof yesterday? Why do I feel that he has already proved it successfully?"

Witten rolled his eyes, "Why am I lying to you, or do you think it's necessary for Lin to do such a thing?"

"That's...that's true." Maldassina was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded, but then he cast an unbelievable look at Lin Xiao.

"But anyway, this is still incredible." He touched his chin, and finally said: "He must have a complete idea, at least he has reached the last step, at least in the process of seeing his proof just now , he only paused on the last step, and he basically didn't pause on the previous steps."

Witten said: "Okay, Maldacena, think about it now, if you are standing on the stage now, then at this time you are only one step away from unifying the strong interaction force and the electroweak interaction force. Now, will you announce on the spot that you are going to undertake such a challenge?"

"Uh..." Maldacena hesitated.

Seeing his appearance, Witten smiled and continued: "Well, even if we add another condition, you have a certain idea and direction for this last step. Under this condition, will you do this?"

"I..." Maldacena showed a helpless expression, and said, "Well, Witten, don't talk, don't talk, I admit that I can't do it, I just feel that Lin can do this no matter what. It’s kind of unbelievable.”

"After all, this is proof on the spot. I have never seen such a report in my life."

"Then you saw it today." At this time, several voices came from the side, and they looked up, it was Deligne and the mathematicians.

"Hey, as long as you can attend Lin's math report a few more times, you will be familiar with it." Deligne said with a smile.

Hearing Deligne's words, Maldacena showed a curious expression: "Oh? Why?"

As a physicist, of course he would not participate in those mathematics reports, even Lin Xiao's original reports that caused earthquakes in the mathematics world.

Deligne smiled and said: "Lin has a title in our mathematics circle, called "Report Assassin". "

"Report Assassin? What is that?" Now Witten also became curious. They had never heard of this title.

Pompieri smiled and said: "Lin often surprises us in his reports, such as his first report—hey, we still can't forget that his first report meeting seemed to be at the International At the mathematician conference, he told us how he solved the law of the distribution of Mersenne prime numbers, and after the lecture, he proposed the Lin's conjecture, um, now it has become Lin's theorem."

"You said, isn't this a surprise?"

And Deligne went on to say: "When the Lin's program was proposed some time ago, and the three reports that proved Hodge's conjecture-in short, our Professor Lin is like an assassin. Just when you thought his report was about to end, he would suddenly do something incredible for you."

Witten and Maldassina were both stunned when they heard it. Although they were not from the mathematics circle, they had heard about these things. Now, listening to Deligne and the others, they thought to themselves, as if It really is such a thing, Lin Xiao's report meetings always seem to do some amazing things.

Just like today's report.

They turned their gazes to Lin Xiao again, and finally clapped their hands again. With the unceasing applause, they showed their greater admiration to this "Report Assassin".

At the same time, Lin Xiao on the stage looked at the people present with a smile on his face, but he was already very sleepy mentally.

In order to solve the last problem just now, his brain was completely overloaded, not to mention fully loaded.

But now that all the problems are solved, his mind is relaxed and his concentration is no longer concentrated.

However, there is still one last questioning session left, so we have to persevere.

So he forcibly lifted his spirits again, and said, "Then, it's time for questions, everyone can ask questions now."

And with his announcement, everyone in the field raised their hands one after another. Whether it is the previous unified quantum mechanics and relativity, or the current problem of proving the existence and mass gap of the Yang-Mills gauge field, everyone has something to say. Many questions want to ask.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiao immediately felt a headache. If he had known earlier, he would not have tortured himself like this.

Now, look at the people who raised their hands, there are probably a hundred, and even if you ignore the repeated questions, there are probably no fewer than twenty.

Shaking his head, he still started to call names and answer questions.

Fortunately, the questions asked were not so tricky, they were basically very simple, and Lin Xiao, who was [-]% familiar with his own proof, was basically familiar with these questions.

So that's it, all problems are quickly over.

"Then, today's report will end here, thank you all."

After finishing speaking, Lin Xiao pinched his eyebrows and left here quickly.

Seeing him leave, many people present who still wanted to communicate with him were stunned.

For example, Maldasina wanted to chat with Lin Xiao more, so he immediately wanted to chase Lin Xiao, but at this moment, Witten stopped him.

"Let Lin rest, he probably didn't sleep last night."

"Didn't sleep?"

"Yes, after all I told you, it hasn't been long since he started researching and proving the mass gap problem, so from yesterday morning to now, he probably hasn't had a rest." Witten said: "That's why he was able to succeed. what."

"So that's the case. I thought he looked a little tired when he gave the report just now." Maldassina nodded, and then couldn't help enviously saying: "It's nice to be young."

If it were their bodies, it was obviously impossible to complete such a report meeting after staying up all night, and even proved a world-class problem on the spot.

Witten nodded approvingly.

"Yeah, it's nice to be young."
