When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 239: One word, the whole world is shocked

Nine o'clock.

The 27th Global Congress of Mathematicians officially begins.

Because this was a very high-scale academic event, the leaders of the Peninsula were also present.

There were countless media reporters, and under the spotlight, the conference opened.

According to previous rules, the five major awards including the Fields Medal were originally announced after the opening.

However, because Wang Dong had already come to an agreement, the order was changed this time.

On the highly anticipated podium, Professor Ingrid Daubechies looked at the people below and gave a speech.

As the current president of the International Mathematical Union, Ingrid Dobe’s academic status cannot be low.

What's more, she is still a woman, and she is not a simple person to be able to sit in such a high position.

Standing on the stage, Wang Donglai was not nervous at all.

Whether they like Wang Donglai or not, they all know one thing, that is, Wang Donglai has strong academic ability and talent!

At this time, the news that Wang Donglai had not been selected for the Fields Medal had already spread among the island nation's scholars, so when they saw Wang Donglai walking towards the stage, they all sneered mockingly, and when they looked at Wang Donglai, there was still a trace of mercy.

The Wolf Prize in Mathematics and the Abel Prize were not awarded to Wang Donglai last year, which already caused quite a bit of criticism among them.

Judging from these words, it is impossible to tell that Ingrid Dobe has any objections to Wang Donglai.

"Now please welcome Wang Donglai with warm applause!"

It was obviously an academic conference, but it was treated like a celebrity concert.

It has to be said that, after all, it is a country on a peninsula, and it is extremely skilled in these small entertainment methods.

"I am honored that in the past four years, there have been great breakthroughs in the field of mathematics."

“This is my last year as IUM, and I am honored and apprehensive.”

When Ingrid Dobe said this, many people thought of a name.

Wang Dong is coming!
A young man from the East!
Some of the people present had gone to see Wang Donglai prove Hodge's conjecture at the graduation thesis defense, and the shock they received was unparalleled.

On the contrary, these words were full of appreciation and praise.

Wang Donglai stood up slowly, and the lights were turned down directly, shining on his body and moving step by step with his steps.

"So, this time I will break the rules and let this mathematical genius from China give a one-hour report."

"Next, I will spend a little time introducing you to this mathematical genius from the East!"

"So, they arranged such small means to show their appreciation for Wang Donglai. When the winners are announced, the backlash will be smaller."

"I used to hear that people abroad are hypocritical and ugly, and I didn't really believe it, but after seeing this scene, I believe it!"

"The International Mathematical Union is a very open academic organization. In my opinion, its main purpose is to promote international exchanges in mathematics and to reward and recognize scholars who have made special contributions in this area."

"I think many people have thought of a name, and that is Wang Donglai from the East!"

Walk up to the high platform and look at the more than 3,000 global scholars and professors who came to participate.

"I am very happy and proud that such an outstanding genius has emerged in the field of mathematics."

"In view of Wang Donglai's talent, Tangdu Jiaotong University allowed him to graduate early. As a result, he proved Hodge's guess in his graduation thesis defense. This will be the most powerful and valuable graduation thesis in history."

In their opinion, the Fields Medal that is about to be announced at this conference is already in Wang Donglai's bag.

At this time, the venue burst into thunderous applause.

"Made..."

Among them are the director of the Clay Research Institute, mathematicians such as Deligne, Qiu Chengtong, and Tao Zhexuan, as well as professors from major universities.

Taro Watanabe's expression was even more arrogant, without any concealment.

The people in the audience looked at Wang Donglai on the stage and were full of curiosity. They didn't know what kind of academic report Wang Donglai would give in this hour.

"At the age of eighteen, he was admitted to Tangdu Jiaotong University in China and studied in the mathematics experimental class. However, not long after he entered the school, this genius published an SCI paper, and then he proved the ABC conjecture."

"Not to mention that this young mathematical genius also proved Zhou's conjecture at an academic exchange conference in Princeton and wrote an accurate formula for the distribution of Mersenne prime numbers."

However, Han Hua and Yang Wanpeng, the only ones who knew the details, had extremely cold expressions on their faces, without the slightest hint of joy.

If it weren't for maintaining his image, Hanwha would have wanted to curse.

In response, Wang Donglai just smiled softly and ignored it.

It can be said that the people present represent most of the world of mathematics today.

When Wang Donglai was walking towards the stage, he happened to pass by the island country scholar.

However, in the eyes of insiders, these words became particularly ugly.

Anyone who listens to or sees Ingrid Dobe will feel that Ingrid Dobe is a very responsible leader.

So this year Wang Donglai won these two awards in one go, they were not much surprised, they just thought it was normal.

Yang Wanpeng was the same, his expression was extremely ugly.

"This method is very clever. People all over the world know about Donglai's achievements. If they don't give Donglai the Fields Medal or show any other expression, it will only make people around the world question their award. impartiality.”

Some people guessed it was number theory, some people guessed it was geometry, and some people guessed it was functions.

However, when Wang Donglai's first words rang out, everyone present sat upright and their eyes became extremely serious.

What's more, he was so surprised that he stood up from sitting down.

"The content of my report today is about the complete proof of Goldbach's conjecture in number theory!"

A fleeting word was like an atomic bomb exploding in the venue.

Not only the people present were shocked, but also the audience outside the TV broadcast.

The Global Congress of Mathematicians is a grand event in the field of mathematics. Naturally, it is impossible to accommodate all mathematics scholars. There must be more of them who can only watch this event on television.

domestic.

Inside a secret research institute.

Xu Songyao is watching the live broadcast of the Global Mathematicians Conference through the computer.

Xu Songyao has multiple identities, so it is naturally impossible that he is not busy.

However, during the opening ceremony, I still took the time to turn on my computer and watch the live broadcast of the Global Mathematics Conference.

Because he knew that after the opening, the list of Fields' winners would be announced.

Although Wang Donglai has been determined to win the award, he still wants to see this scene with his own eyes.

Going to the peninsula to participate in the conference was not a problem in his capacity, but the key projects above encountered problems, and as an expert in this field, he was invited to go there immediately.

At the opening of the Global Mathematicians Conference, Xu Songyao turned on the computer.

Not only Xu Songyao, but also others in the institute.

"Academician Xu, Professor Wang from your school is amazing. It seems that he will definitely win the Fields Medal this time."

A middle-aged man with thinning hair said to Xu Songyao with a smile. "Well, he is indeed the most talented person I have ever met!"

Xu Songyao was not modest and agreed directly, with a hint of pride in his tone.

"I remember that at the 26th Global Congress of Mathematicians, Academician Xu was a special guest and gave a 45-minute academic report, right? Unexpectedly, this time it was Professor Wang who gave a one-hour report. Congratulations to Academician Xu! "

While listening to the voice from the computer speakers asking Wang Dong to give an hour-long report, the middle-aged man spoke up again.

At this moment, Xu Songyao had a smile on his face and looked quite happy.

However, the smile didn't last long.

When he heard the words coming from the computer, Xu Songyao's expression suddenly changed.

Everyone in the institute became extremely excited.

the reason is simple!
Goldbach's conjecture has become a serious academic problem.

A rough estimate shows that in China alone, there are no fewer than twenty people who claim to have proved this mathematical problem.

Not to mention the people in the civil sciences, as long as they are mathematics journals, they have accepted papers proving Goldbach's conjecture.

For these papers, some people read them at first, but later they all regarded them as garbage and did not even read them.

Now, seeing Wang Donglai promoting his proof of Goldbach's conjecture at a global conference of mathematicians naturally made everyone excited.

Regardless of whether it’s actually proven or not, it’s a huge buzz.

Proven success, Wang Donglai achieved golden status!

If it proves unsuccessful, it will be a huge laughing stock and disgraceful in the eyes of the world.

This idea is very easy to understand.

Therefore, when watching the live broadcast at this moment, the faces of those who were concerned about Wang Donglai changed and they felt worried.

The scene of the Global Mathematicians Conference.

After Wang Donglai finished speaking, the huge venue fell into an eerie silence.

At this moment, many people in the venue thought Wang Donglai was a lunatic.

Only a handful of people have full confidence in Wang Donglai and believe that he has really proved Goldbach's conjecture.

offstage.

"Could it be that what Wang Donglai said before that he had made a breakthrough in number theory was to prove Goldbach's conjecture? Why did he not choose to publish a paper for such an important proof, but..."

Professor Blair's tone was full of shock and he murmured subconsciously.

However, as he spoke, he came to his senses.

"How can you publish a paper and directly prove it in front of mathematicians around the world?"

"If it were me, I would choose to do this too!"

Professor Deligne sat next to Professor Blair. Hearing Professor Blair's muttering, he replied.

"Viscount, do you think Wang Donglai will really prove Goldbach's conjecture?"

When Professor Blair asked this question, he didn't really believe that Wang Donglai could really prove it, but he still maintained a slight expectation.

Hearing Blair's question, Deligne also hesitated.

In fact, after hearing Wang Donglai's words, he immediately thought of what Wang Donglai had said to his teacher Grothendieck.

"I think we might be witnessing history again!"

Professor Deligne's eyes suddenly brightened, and he spoke to Professor Blair confidently.

the other side.

Han Hua and Yang Wanpeng were stunned.

The two of them never expected that such an incident would happen.

From the beginning, the two of them thought that this conference would just go through the process, see Wang Donglai win the Fields Medal with their own eyes, and witness history.

But he didn't expect that things would take many twists and turns, starting with the provocation from the island nation's scholars.

Then came the bad news from Academician Long Zhonghui.

Holding back their anger and grievance, the two of them just hoped that the conference could end soon and return home soon.

But the two of them never expected that such an incident would happen.

"Did I hear wrongly?"

Han Hua turned his head and looked at Yang Wanpeng, his face full of disbelief.

"You heard me right, Professor Wang said he proved Goldbach's conjecture!"

Yang Wanpeng was extremely shocked at this time, and he no longer called Wang Donglai Donglai, but called Professor Wang.

"But, this..."

It is naturally impossible for Hanhua not to know the existence of the Goldbach conjecture problem. If it were normal times, he might be shocked and only be happy for Wang Donglai.

But considering the current situation, Hanwha can't help but think too much.

Could it be that Wang Donglai was stimulated, so he did this on purpose?

The proof of Goldbach's conjecture has actually been advanced a lot. It is not impossible for Wang Donglai to make another breakthrough based on Chen Jingrun's work.

But if Wang Donglai's breakthrough does not meet the requirements for breakthrough progress, it is completely foreseeable that scholars from the island country will madly criticize Wang Donglai.

This will only put more pressure on Wang Donglai.

Thinking that such a situation might happen, Han Hua frowned, with a trace of worry between his brows.

"Old Han, don't think too much. The matter has reached this point. We can only think about the good side of things."

Although Yang Wanpeng was a little worried, his mentality adjusted.

"Dong Lai's academic talent is beyond our imagination. He can prove Hodge's conjecture and ABC conjecture. It's not necessarily impossible if he proves Goldbach's conjecture."

"We have to believe him!"

"If he wasn't sure, he probably wouldn't do this. After getting along with each other for the past two years, you should be able to tell that Dong Lai is not an impulsive person. Maybe after today, the mathematics class will have one less difficult problem, and domestic One more mathematician means one more math master in the world.”

When talking about this, Yang Wanpeng and Han Hua couldn't help but think about it.

If Wang Donglai really proved Goldbach's conjecture here, they both knew what it meant.

Wang Donglai, who has already proven Hodge's conjecture, ABC conjecture and Zhou's conjecture, will once again set a new record and enter the history of global mathematics.

Moreover, with Wang Donglai's academic ability, it can be seen with the naked eye that this record will remain for a long time and will not be easily broken.

Winning the Fields Medal is nothing in comparison.

It was the honor of the Fields Medal rather than his honor.

Of course, this presupposes that Wang Donglai can really prove Goldbach's conjecture.
