From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 54 The Shock of Professor Xu Ji

"Ask him if he wants to be my student."

When Zhou Wu heard Xu Ji's question, he felt emotional in his heart. Judging from the situation, this paper is really all right.

Otherwise, Xu Ji wouldn't directly say that he wanted to accept him as his student. This is obviously very optimistic about him.

And considering Xu Ji's qualifications, and how soon he will be selected as an academician and become his student, the benefits are of course even more.

But, I guess Xu Ji will be disappointed now. The student who wrote this thesis has not yet become a student of their school. By then, he will have to go through four years of undergraduate studies before reaching the postgraduate stage...Of course it is not ruled out Lin Xiao skipped a grade directly, but no matter what, even if he becomes Xu Ji's student, it will take several years, unless Xu Ji directly accepts this undergraduate as his student.

Thinking of this, Zhou Wu couldn't help laughing.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Xu Ji laughed instead, and couldn't help asking: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhou Wudao: "Professor Xu, this Lin Xiao, first guess what grade he is in?"

When Xu Ji saw that Zhou Wu was still playing tricks, he couldn't help but leaned back in his chair and said, "Senior? Junior? Or sophomore?"

Zhou Wu shook his head.

Now Xu Ji was really surprised, "Not even a sophomore? A freshman? Didn't the freshman only last a semester? There is such a powerful person in this class?"

Hearing what Xu Ji said, Zhou Wu laughed again. Of course, he didn't continue to play tricks, and said directly: "This student is a prospective freshman, that is to say, he is about to become our freshman. I haven't enrolled yet, and I'm still in my third year of high school."

"what?"

This time Xu Ji was not surprised, but unbelievable.

"A high school student? Solved this kind of problem? Are you kidding me?!"

"Professor Xu, how could I lie to you? I just saw this paper this morning, and I had the same reaction as you at the time. I couldn't believe it at all."

Receiving the expected reaction, Zhou Wu said with a smile: "This Lin Xiao was No.1 in the High School Mathematical Olympiad last year. It is estimated that he will participate in the IMO competition this year. He is indeed very talented. Now he can write such a From the paper, it also shows that he is far more than what he showed in that kind of competition. I guess, we should have another great mathematician with a long history in the School of Mathematics of Peking University, and in Huaguo."

Xu Ji didn't refute what Zhou Wu said, and he made such an astonishing achievement when he was still in the third year of high school, which completely shows that the talent of this student has surpassed those ordinary geniuses.

And only with such talent, he has the opportunity to become a great mathematician.

However, it still depends on its future development. If this student can concentrate on mathematics research and become a great mathematician, it may be impossible.

"The younger generation is awesome." Xu Ji sighed again, and then said: "Then he is still a senior in high school, how do you know he is coming to our school?"

"Oh, because he is the number one CMO, he was recommended."

"That's it, I see." Xu Ji nodded: "When he comes to school in the second half of this year, remember to let me know."

Zhou Wu nodded, then remembered what Lin Xiao said, and said, "Oh, by the way, Professor Xu, this Lin Xiao wants to publish the paper in the "Annals of Mathematics" AMS, and wants to have a quick review, so as not to wait a long time. The team of the month, do you have any relationship in this regard?"

"Quick review." Xu Ji thought for a while, and then said, "Yes, I have a friend from Princeton University who is familiar with AMS. I'll just contact you when the time comes."

"Then thank you very much, I will reply to Lin Xiao now."

Zhou Wudao thanked, and also felt that these big shots have a wide network of contacts, and they can find a friend to help them.

"Well, let's go." Xu Ji nodded. Although he really wanted to accept Lin as his student, he was still a high school student, so he could only wait for him to come to college first.

Zhou Wu went out quickly, Xu Ji took out his phone and was about to call his friends in Princeton University, but at this moment he noticed that his graduate students were all looking at him with curiosity and surprise.

He couldn't help laughing and said, "What are you looking at? Are you done with the task you have given?"

The classmate Xiao Zhou couldn't help but said: "Professor, is that person really still in his third year of high school?"

"Didn't you, Director Zhou, tell you all about it, how can there be fakes?"

These graduate students in mathematics at Beijing University couldn't help but gasped in their hearts.

In the third year of high school, the mathematics annual is published. Do you want them to live?
Thank God if they can publish in the first district. If they graduate, they can publish two domestic core journals or important international journals, probably in the second district. They published a TOP journal in the third year of high school, which is still a top four.

This shit, I can't even envy you.

That Xiaoliang asked again at this time: "Then how difficult is the problem he... solved?"

"Difficulty? Do you think Goldbach's conjecture is difficult?"

Xiao Liang swallowed, nodded and said, "It's difficult."

"That's it. Although this is not as troublesome as Goldbach's conjecture, it is at least an unsolved problem in number theory. Just think about what it was like when you were studying number theory."

Several graduate students suddenly thought about their performance when they were learning number theory, and felt that they were hit harder.

They used to think that number theory was very simple, after all, they all studied integers, but after the professor gave them a few number theory questions, they gave up continuing to study number theory.

The deeper this thing is, the less it's for people to play.

Seeing the appearance of several students, Xu Ji shook his head with a broken smile. He didn't want to talk much, so he dialed the phone and got in touch with that friend.

……

On the other hand, after Zhou Wu returned to his office, he checked Lin Xiao's English version of the thesis first, and compared it with the submission requirements on the official website of "Annals of Mathematics". After confirming that there was no problem, he called Lin Xiao directly. up.

"Student Lin Xiao, your paper is sure to be fine, and now you can directly publish it to the Annual Journal of Mathematics. Do you know how to post it?"

"Thank you, Professor Zhou!" Lin Xiao thanked, and then said: "I know, the electronic version is sent directly to their mailbox, right?"

"Well, it's like this, then there's no problem." Zhou Wu said with a smile, "As for the review issue, you can also rest assured that Professor Xu Ji from our side will contact that side, and you The results of this paper are excellent, and the Annual Mathematics Journal will definitely be eager to publish your paper."

"Thank you Professor Zhou!"

"Hehe, you're welcome, by the way, do you know what Professor Xu Ji said just now?" Probably because of Lin Xiao's talent, Zhou Wu was even interested in chatting with Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao froze for a moment: "What did you say?"

"He thought you were an undergraduate student of our major, and said he wanted to accept you as a student."
