From a university student to a chief academician

Chapter 153 Studying Two Crashes
Ye Fei's research speed is very fast, and he has written a lot of nature papers.

He is considered a prolific paper scholar, publishing a paper every once in a while.

Across the four major fields of mathematics, computer science, medicine, and physics.

The field of mathematics straddles mathematical logic and number theory.

Interdisciplinary, spanning algorithms, computer algorithms, encryption algorithms, asymmetric encryption algorithms and mathematical algorithms, etc.

Seemingly diverse, the classification is very scattered.

In fact, all of Ye Fei's subsequent applied research is derived from the subject of number theory in mathematics.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ye Fei is a number theorist.

Therefore, on Arxiv, many scholars who study or pay attention to number theory will pay attention to Ye Fei.

Bay Province University, teacher building, office!

Song Chengkun was chatting with a professor named Li Zheng.

"Li Zheng, let me tell you that my research on twin prime numbers this time will definitely succeed, and I have already found the signs."

"This time I won't make the mistake of last time."

"Last time, I shouldn't have started too high, and started to study triplet primes."

"I should have started with simple research."

"So, this time I started my research with twin prime numbers."

Li Zheng asked: "There are many aspects of research on twin prime numbers, and the difficulty of each aspect of research is different. Where do you research from, you won't find another difficult research!"

"Haha..." Song Chengkun laughed and said, "I have already said that I will not make the same mistake as last time. This time, of course, I chose a relatively simple aspect to study."

"I am studying the infinite number of twin prime numbers. This problem is relatively simple among all the problems of twin prime numbers."

Li Zheng nodded and said: "This problem is indeed relatively simple among twin prime numbers. I wish you success!"

"Of course!" Song Chengkun laughed loudly: "If I can't even prove this problem, I, Song Chengkun, will never touch prime numbers again."

Song Chengkun has been studying prime numbers since he was a graduate student, and it has been nearly 20 years now.

After studying prime numbers for so many years, Song Chengkun is also considered a senior expert in the field of prime numbers.

And the infinite number of twin prime numbers, this problem is relatively simple among all the problems in twin prime numbers.

Therefore, Song Chengkun is more confident in proving this problem.

Li Zheng asked: "How long have you been studying the infinite number of twin primes?"

"More than three months!" Song Chengkun thought for a while and said, "I have started researching since I came back from attending the Ho Leung Ho Lee Awards Ceremony last time."

Speaking of the Ho Leung Ho Lee Awards ceremony, Song Chengkun remembered Ye Fei's invitation to him.

Li Zhengdao: "By the way, when it comes to the Ho Leung Ho Lee Awards Ceremony, I heard that Ye Fei also went there. Ye Fei is very popular in the blockchain circle recently!"

"The cross-chain proposed by Ye Fei at the Global Blockchain Academic Conference has been developed by many companies and institutions."

"There are extraordinary applications in many fields."

"Recently, a lot of people at the School of Computer Science have been talking about this matter."

"I heard that you know Ye Fei, do you know Ye Fei?"

Song Chengkun said with a smile: "Ye Fei and I have a very good relationship, and he even invited me to go to Zhonghu University to do research with him!"

"And then?" Li Zheng looked at Song Chengkun with piercing eyes, expecting his next answer.

"I didn't refuse verbally at the time, but I had already rejected him in my heart."

"Why?" Li Zheng asked: "Both of you study number theory, and Ye Fei is also a well-known scholar now. I think he is better than you. If you study with him, he can still lead you. I think you and him are very good at studying together." Well, at least it’s much better than your own research.”

"Is he better than me?" Song Chengkun was so angry that he jumped his feet when he heard this, and said anxiously: "Say it again, he is better than me. I have been studying prime numbers for nearly 20 years, and he has only been studying them for a few years?"

Although Song Chengkun knew that what Li Zheng said was right, his self-esteem couldn't allow him to admit such a fact.

I have studied prime numbers for nearly 20 years, and was surpassed by a 25-year-old kid.

It would be embarrassing to say it, and I wish I could find a place to drill down.

Li Zhengdao: "I'm telling the truth, isn't it right? Although you have been studying prime numbers for nearly 20 years, you are indeed inferior to Ye Fei in this respect."

"You and I are both engaged in mathematics, so we should all understand that if it is useful to study mathematics, what do you need a genius for?"

Song Chengkun stared at Li Zheng for a long time, and finally snorted: "I, Song Chengkun, am an aspiring scholar. I want to prove mathematical problems independently. I will never cooperate with others."

Working with others has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that the research goes more smoothly.

The disadvantage is that the results have to be shared with others.

Song Chengkun felt that the infinite number of twin primes was quite simple, and he could complete it by himself.

Therefore, he does not want to share the research results of this issue with others.

"Machi..."

At this time, Li Zheng's mobile phone in his coat pocket rang a WeChat voice.

Li Zheng took it out to look at it, and then his eyes widened in surprise, then he glanced at Song Chengkun, and then at the phone.

Then he took another look at Song Chengkun, then at the phone.

Song Chengkun felt uncomfortable being looked at by him, and said, "What are you doing? Look at me like this."

Li Zheng put the phone in his pocket, and said hesitantly: "Old Song, don't get excited when I say one thing."

"I won an award?" Song Chengkun said in surprise, "What award?"

"No!" Li Zheng shook his head.

"The school wants to give me a promotion?"

"No." Li Zheng shook his head again.

"Then you said it!" Song Chengkun said.

"What I want to say!" Li Zheng said helplessly, "You didn't even give me a chance to say it!"

"Let me tell you directly, you have no chance to cooperate with Ye Fei now."

"Huh?" Song Chengkun was puzzled: "What's this called? Why didn't I have a chance to cooperate with him? It was Ye Fei who took the initiative to invite me, not me who posted it to cooperate with him."

"If I cooperate with him, Ye Fei will definitely agree."

"Are you studying the infinite number of twin primes?"

"Yes!" Song Chengkun said.

"Your problem has been proven."

"What?" Song Chengkun exclaimed, walking around in the office, unable to accept this fact for a while.

I have been researching it for more than three months, and as soon as I have some signs, it is proved by others.

"Who, tell me who proved this problem?" Song Chengkun stared at Li Zheng with red eyes, as if he wanted to swallow Li Zheng alive.

My own research has just taken shape, and I am about to do a big job, but I find that the problem has been proved by others.

Taking money from people is like killing one's parents!
In academia, that is, taking people's fame is like killing their parents.

The difficult problem that Song Chengkun wants to prove, if it is proved by others in advance, is to take away Song Chengkun's reputation.

"It's Ye Fei!"

When Song Chengkun heard this, he froze for a moment and remained motionless like a fool.

Others proved that Song Chengkun could accept it, but Ye Fei proved that he could not accept it.

It's not that Ye Fei couldn't prove it, but that Ye Fei invited Song Chengkun to cooperate, and it was Song Chengkun who didn't cooperate with Ye Fei.

But Ye Fei proved Song Chengkun's research.

Doesn't this mean that if you don't cooperate with me, then I will overturn the table, prove your research, and let you do research that you don't have.

After a long time, Song Chengkun said in a daze: "How did Ye Fei know that I was studying the infinite number of twin prime numbers, this problem?"

"Didn't you tell him?" Li Zheng asked.

"No." Song Chengkun shook his head again and again: "I remember it clearly. At that time, I only said to study twin prime numbers, but didn't say which problem to study twin prime numbers. Moreover, when I met Ye Fei, I just decided to study twin prime numbers. It has not been decided which problem to study twin primes.”

"So, Ye Fei will never know which problem I am studying on twin prime numbers."

"That's why you are researching crashes." Li Zhengdao: "I just said that you are not as good as Ye Fei."

"Look at you, you have studied for three months before you have any signs of it, and Ye Fei has already proved the problem."

"It's okay if you don't compare it. Let's compare it..." Li Zheng shook his head again and again.

"Can you stop saying it's okay!" Song Chengkun was about to cry.

Nima, it's too shocking.

Thinking of what he said before, Song Chengkun was embarrassed and sad.

Knowing that he is no better than Ye Fei, but he just disagrees.

However, it would be too embarrassing to slap the face with the facts now.

Zhonghu University, Blockchain Research Office, Ye Fei Office.

Two days after Ye Fei revised the paper, he submitted it to New Advances in Mathematics.

Ye Fei muttered: "I don't know how Song Chengkun's research on twin prime numbers is going?"

"Why don't you call and ask, if his research is unsuccessful, I can invite him to study together."

Ye Fei thinks twin prime numbers are quite simple, and he has a good relationship with Song Chengkun.

If Song Chengkun doesn't succeed in his research, I can help him.

The main reason is that Ye Fei now needs someone who has a deep research on prime numbers to come to the laboratory to help him complete the research.

If such talents join in, Ye Fei can complete the research more easily and faster.

It seems that there is no shortage of talents in the laboratory, and it seems that Ye Fei can solve many problems.

In fact, the laboratory does not lack low-end talents, but lacks high-end talents.

If high-end prime number talents join in, it can fill Ye Fei's vacancy in prime numbers.

Research is not a unicorn, and it cannot be completed by one person. It requires the cooperation of multiple people to complete the research.

As for the prime number high-end talents Ye Fei knew, one was Mochizuki Shinichi and the other was Song Chengkun.

It is impossible for Mochizuki Shinichi to invite, so only Song Chengkun is left.

Ye Fei has known Song Chengkun before. He is one of the most famous professors of Prime Number Research at the University of Wanwan. Even in the mainland, he is equivalent to a famous professor in a famous C9 school.

This is exactly the talent Ye Fei needs.

Therefore, Ye Fei has been wooing Song Chengkun all along.

Of course, what Ye Fei didn't know was that the research he had just completed had a collision with Song Chengkun.

And finish the research one step ahead of him.

Ye Fei shook his head in his heart: "It's still not enough to have a good network. If I have a wide network, I can know more high-end talents, and I won't just know these two people."

"The most scarce resource in the world today is talents. Low-end talents are easy to find, but high-end talents are hard to come by."

"Some talents cannot be obtained without some means."

After speaking, Ye Fei took out his phone and called Song Chengkun.

The call was hung up as soon as the call was made.

"Huh?" Ye Fei was surprised: "Hang up on me?"

"Are you busy?"

"Forget it, wait until the evening to call, it shouldn't be busy at night."

After speaking, Ye Fei walked out of the office to instruct his researchers to do research.

The research on asymmetric encryption algorithm mainly completes three parts.

At this stage, one-third of the research room has been completed, and encryption and decryption are completed by different keys.

Next, start to study whether it is computationally feasible to know the encryption algorithm and obtain the decryption key from the encryption key.

This research is divided into three parts.

Respectively, a suitable encryption algorithm is derived.

Then get the encryption key from the encryption algorithm.

Then get the decryption key from the encryption key.

The ultimate goal is to get the decryption key.

Ye Fei walked into a research room. There were thirty people in this research room.

There are 90 people in the blockchain laboratory. Ye Fei divided them into three groups, and each group conducted a kind of research.

This research room conducts research on encryption algorithms.

Ye Fei clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and said, "I have something to say about the research on encryption algorithms, come here."

After everyone gathered, Ye Fei stood in front of a whiteboard and told everyone about the encryption algorithm he had recently thought about.

After more than an hour, Ye Fei left the laboratory and went to another laboratory.

This is Ye Fei's daily work.

He only needs to put forward the research direction, and hand over the specific and complicated research to his researchers.

The leader only needs to control the direction and management, and the specific work is done by his subordinates.

After returning to the office, it was already around seven o'clock in the evening.

Ye Feisi thought: "When it comes to encryption algorithms, if there is a normal distribution of prime numbers, it will be more beneficial for the research on encryption algorithms."

The normal distribution of prime numbers is also called the prime number distribution.

The distribution of prime numbers has always been one of the most important and attractive central problems in number theory.

This puzzle has been around for more than 300 years.

Regarding the distribution properties of prime numbers, through numerical observation, calculation and preliminary research, it is found that the distribution of prime numbers is a normal distribution centered on the Riemann formula and upper bounded by the Gauss formula.

Of course, because it has not been proved yet, someone discovered the law of prime number distribution.

So, it's just an empirical formula.

Only by proving it can it be transformed from an empirical formula into a mathematical theorem.

It's as if someone knows that there are dark clouds in the sky and it will rain, but they don't know why there are dark clouds and why it rains.

And through research, we can know the formation of dark clouds and the principle of rain.

Ye Feixin said: "This question is quite difficult."

"But I used to study a lot of Riemann conjectures and Gauss conjectures."

"Also, the study of the distribution of prime numbers is helpful for the study of Riemann's conjecture and Gaussian conjecture."

"It's really killing three birds with one stone."

Ye Fei glanced at the sky outside the window and said, "It's already evening, Song Chengkun should not be busy now!"

"If he comes to study together, it can also help."

After speaking, Ye Fei called Song Chengkun.

Bay Province University, Song Chengkun's office!
After half a day of hard thinking, Song Chengkun said with a smile: "The infinite number of twin prime numbers, since you have proved this problem, then I will prove something else."

"Normal distribution of prime numbers looks pretty good to me."

"Although the difficulty is higher than that of infinite twin primes, this problem is much more difficult."

"But the normal distribution of prime numbers has always been one of the core issues. I have always been interested in it, but I have been focusing on triplet prime numbers before, so I didn't study it."

"I still don't believe it, Ye Fei has even studied this issue."

"Once is a coincidence, but coincidences don't happen many times. It's lucky to come once, twice unless you are the roundworm in my stomach."

"How is that possible?"

"Haha..." Song Chengkun laughed loudly: "This is definitely impossible."

"It won't be a coincidence twice."

"Ding Lingling..." At this moment, Song Chengkun's mobile phone rang.

After taking a look, he saw that it was Ye Fei calling, so he pressed the button and hung up.

Song Chengkun didn't want to hear Ye Fei's voice.

My own research finally started to show signs of development, but just as I was about to make a big effort, Ye Fei ruthlessly put it out.

Can this make him not annoyed Ye Fei?
"Ding Lingling..."

But just after hanging up, Ye Fei called again.

Song Chengkun hung up again, and then called again.

Played four or five times in a row.

"It's not over yet?" Song Chengkun was annoyed.

After finishing speaking, he connected the phone and said in a very aggressive tone, "Hello, what do you do?"

Ye Fei was very surprised when he heard Song Chengkun's tone. He didn't provoke Song Chengkun, did he? Why did he speak in such a tone?
Ye Fei said: "I want to inquire, how is your research going? Are you still coming to my place?"

Song Chengkun was very annoyed when he heard this.

Song Chengkun suppressed his anger, gritted his teeth and said, "How is my research? No more, you are satisfied now!"

Ye Fei was astonished, what is my satisfaction?
Also, why did your research disappear?
Ye Fei asked: "What research do you do? Why is it gone?"

"Don't you know the good things you do yourself?"

"Uh..." Ye Fei was even more surprised now, what did I do?

Ye Fei said: "Since your research is gone, do you want to come and do research with me? I'm going to study the normal distribution of prime numbers recently."

"If you join, we can work together to prove it faster."

"No..." Song Chengkun exclaimed, "What? Tell me again what you are studying."

"Normal distribution of prime numbers!" Ye Fei asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Song Chengkun was shocked, this really crashed twice.

Song Chengkun said in embarrassment: "You can't study other things?"

"Others?" Ye Fei said, "I did the research because the normal distribution of prime numbers happened to be used in my recent research."

"Okay!" Song Chengkun took a deep breath, Ye Fei's reasons were impeccable.

"Are you coming or not?" Ye Fei asked.

Song Chengkun thought for a while and said, "Let me go and have a look!"

Song Chengkun prepared two studies, one is the infinite number of twin prime numbers, and the other is the normal distribution of prime numbers.

The research on these two problems, the first is a problem that Song Chengkun thinks is quite simple, and the other is a problem that he has always wanted to study in prime numbers.

But now Ye Fei also wants to study the normal distribution of prime numbers.

If Ye Fei researched this problem again, Song Chengkun would not know what to study next.

So, he wanted to go and see.

"Well, just look!"

By the way, a wave of cooperation, said to see, but actually agreed to cooperate.

This was all forced by Ye Fei, who made the two of them so lucky that they crashed twice!

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Then you come!"

Ye Fei was very happy. Song Chengkun came, so the research room has a senior person who studies prime numbers, and the research on asymmetric encryption algorithms can be completed more quickly.

Ye Feixin said: "Without Song Chengkun joining, the research would be completed by the end of the year. Now that Song Chengkun is joining, the research can be completed in December."

"That's four months later!"
