From university academician to chief academician

Ye Fei's research speed is very fast and he writes a lot of natural papers.

He is a prolific scholar and will publish a paper every once in a while.

It spans four major fields: mathematics, computer, medicine, and physics.

The field of mathematics spans mathematical logic and number theory.

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

It seems to be diverse and the classification is very scattered.

In fact, all of Ye Fei's subsequent applied research was derived from the discipline 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, my study of twin prime numbers will definitely be successful this time. I have already found the clue."

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

"Last time I shouldn't have started too high and studied the triplet prime numbers from the beginning."

"I should start with simple research."

"So, this time I started with twin primes."

Li Zheng asked: "There are many aspects of research on twin prime numbers, and the difficulty of research in each aspect is different. Which aspect are you studying? You are not looking for another difficult study!"

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

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

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

"Of course!" Song Chengkun laughed: "If I can't 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 twenty years now.

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

As for the infinite number of twin primes, this problem is relatively simple among all the problems in twin primes.

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

Li Zheng asked: "You have been studying infinite twin prime numbers. How long have you been studying this problem?"

"More than three months!" Song Chengkun thought for a moment and said: "I have started researching since I came back from the last time I attended the Ho Leung Ho Lee Awards ceremony."

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

Li Zhengdao: "By the way, speaking of 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.”

“It has extraordinary applications in many areas.”

"A lot of people are talking about this in the School of Computer Science recently."

"I heard that you and Ye Fei know each other. Do you know Ye Fei as a person?"

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

"Then what?" Li Zheng looked at Song Chengkun with bright eyes, looking forward to his next answer.

"I didn't refuse him verbally, but I 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 guide you. I think it is good for you to study with him. Okay, at least it’s much better than studying it alone.”

"Is he better than me?" When Song Chengkun heard this, he was so angry that he jumped up and said anxiously: "You can say it again, he is better than me. I have been studying prime numbers for nearly twenty years, and he has only been studying them for a few years?"

Although Song Chengkun knew that Li Zheng was right, his pride did not allow him to admit such a fact.

I have been studying prime numbers for nearly twenty years, and I was surpassed by a young boy who was only twenty-five years old.

It's embarrassing to talk about it. I wish I could find a crack in the ground and burrow into it.

Li Zhengdao: "What I said is true, isn't it right? Although you have been studying prime numbers for nearly twenty years, you are indeed not as good as Ye Fei in this regard."

"You and I are both engaged in mathematics. We should all understand that if hard work is useful in studying mathematics, what does it take to be a genius?"

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."

Cooperating with others has advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that research goes more smoothly.

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

Song Chengkun felt that the infinite problem of twin prime numbers was quite simple and he could complete it by himself.

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

"Machi..."

At this time, Li Zheng's cell phone in his coat pocket rang with WeChat.

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

Then he looked at Song Chengkun again, and then at his phone.

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

Li Zheng put his cell phone in his pocket and said hesitantly: "Old Song, don't get excited if I tell you something."

"Did I win a prize?" Song Chengkun said in surprise, "What prize?"

"No!" Li Zheng shook his head.

"The school wants to promote my professional title?"

"No." Li Zheng shook his head again.

"Then you should tell me!" 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 confused: "What is this? Why don't I have a chance to cooperate with him? Ye Fei took the initiative to invite me, not me who took the initiative to cooperate with him."

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

"Are you studying the problem of infinite twin prime numbers?"

"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 had some signs, it was proved by others.

"Who is it? 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 had just begun to show signs of success, and I was about to start a big project, but I found that the problem had been proved by others.

Stealing someone's wealth is like killing your parents!

In academia, that means taking someone's reputation, like killing one's parents.

The difficult problem that Song Chengkun wanted to prove was proved by others in advance, which was to take away Song Chengkun's reputation.

"It's Ye Fei!"

When Song Chengkun heard this, he was stunned and motionless.

Others proved that Song Chengkun could accept it, but Ye Fei proved that he couldn't accept it.

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

But Ye Fei proved Song Chengkun's research.

Isn't this equivalent to saying, if you don't cooperate with me, then I will flip the table and prove your research so that you can do research you don't have.

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

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

"No." Song Chengkun shook his head repeatedly: "I remember clearly. At that time, I only said that I would study twin prime numbers, but I didn't mention the issue of studying twin prime numbers. Moreover, when I met Ye Fei, I had just decided to study twin prime numbers. I haven’t decided yet which problem of twin primes to study.”

"So, Ye Fei will never know which issue of twin primes I am studying."

"Then you're studying car crashes." Li Zhengdao: "I'd say you're not as good as Ye Fei."

"Look at you, it took you three months of research to get a clue, and Ye Fei has already proven the problem."

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

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

Damn, this is so shocking.

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

He knew that he was no better than Ye Fei, but he just disagreed.

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

Zhonghu University, Blockchain Research Laboratory, Ye Fei’s Office.

Ye Fei revised the paper for two days before submitting it to New Advances in Mathematics.

Ye Fei murmured: "I wonder how Song Chengkun's research on twin prime numbers went?"

"Why don't you call and ask? If his research fails, I can invite him to study together."

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

If Song Chengkun fails in his research, he can help him.

The main reason is that Ye Fei now needs someone with deep research on prime numbers to come to the laboratory and help him complete his research.

If such talents join, Ye Fei can complete 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 it lacks high-end talents.

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

Research is not a unicorn and cannot be completed by one person. It requires the cooperation of many people in order to complete the research.

Among the high-end talents that Ye Fei knew, one was Mochizuki Shinichi and the other was Song Chengkun.

It was impossible to invite Mochizuki Shinichi, so only Song Chengkun could be invited.

Ye Fei knew Song Chengkun. He was one of the most famous professors studying prime numbers at Bay University. Even in mainland China, he was equivalent to a famous professor at a C9 prestigious university.

This is exactly the talent Ye Fei needs.

Therefore, Ye Fei has been wooing Song Chengkun for a long time.

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

And completed the research one step ahead of him.

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

"In today's world, the most scarce resource is talent. Low-end talents are easy to find, but high-end talents are hard to come by."

"Some talents cannot be obtained without using some means."

After saying that, 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 my phone?"

"Are you busy?"

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

After saying that, Ye Fei walked out of the office and went to guide his researchers in their research.

The research on asymmetric encryption algorithms mainly completes three parts.

The research laboratory is currently one-third complete, and encryption and decryption are completed with different keys.

Next, we started to study, knowing the encryption algorithm, whether it is computationally feasible to obtain the decryption key from the encryption key.

This research is divided into three parts.

respectively, to derive appropriate encryption algorithms.

The encryption key is then obtained 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 a total of thirty people in this research room.

There are ninety people in the blockchain laboratory, and Ye Fei divides them into three groups, each group conducting a type of research.

This research room conducts encryption algorithm research.

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 been thinking about recently.

More than an hour later, Ye Fei left the laboratory and went to another laboratory.

This is Ye Fei's daily work.

He only needs to propose research directions, and leave specific and complex research to his researchers.

Leaders only need to control direction and management, and the specific tasks are completed by their subordinates.

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

Ye Fei thought: "When it comes to researching encryption algorithms, if there is a normal distribution of prime numbers, it will be more beneficial to research 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 fascinating central problems in number theory.

This problem has existed for more than three hundred 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 with Riemann's formula as the center and Gaussian formula as the upper limit.

Of course, it hasn't been proven yet, but someone has 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.

This is like someone who 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.

Through research, we can understand the formation of dark clouds and the principles of rain.

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

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

"Moreover, studying the distribution of prime numbers is helpful for studying both the Riemann Hypothesis and the Gaussian Hypothesis."

“This is really research that kills 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, he 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: "Since you have proven the infinite number of twin prime numbers, I will go and prove something else."

"I think the normal distribution of prime numbers is pretty good."

"Although it is more difficult than having 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 always focused 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. You are lucky if you come once, but twice unless you are a roundworm in my stomach."

"But how is that possible?"

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

"There won't be two coincidences."

"Ding Lingling..." At this time, Song Chengkun's cell phone rang.

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

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

His research finally had some signs of success, but just when he wanted to start a big project, Ye Fei ruthlessly extinguished it.

Will this make him not angry with Ye Fei?

"Ding Lingling..."

But just as he hung up, Ye Fei called again.

Song Chengkun hung up again and then called again.

I hit four or five times in a row.

"Isn't it over yet?" Song Chengkun was angry.

After saying that, he answered the phone and said in an aggressive tone: "Hey, are you okay?"

Ye Fei was very surprised when he heard Song Chengkun's tone. He didn't provoke Song Chengkun. Why did he speak in such a tone?

Ye Feidao: "I want to know how your research is going? Are you coming to my place yet?"

Song Chengkun was very angry when he heard this.

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

Ye Fei was shocked, what does it mean for me to be satisfied?

Also, why is your research gone?

Ye Fei asked: "What research did you do? Why is it gone?"

"Don't you know the good things you have done?"

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

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

"If you join us, we can prove it faster by working together."

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

"The normal distribution of prime numbers!" Ye Fei said confused: "What's wrong?"

Song Chengkun was shocked. This was really a car crash twice.

Song Chengkun said in embarrassment: "Can't you study other things?"

"Others?" Ye Feidao: "I studied it because my recent research happened to use the normal distribution of prime numbers."

"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 then said: "Let me go and have a look!"

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

In 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 studies this problem again, Song Chengkun won't know what to study next.

So, he wanted to take a look.

"Well, just looking!"

By the way, I wanted to cooperate. I said it was to take a look, but in fact, I 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 come on!"

Ye Fei was very happy. With Song Chengkun here, there would be a senior researcher in prime numbers in the research room, and the research on asymmetric encryption algorithms could be completed more quickly.

Ye Feixin said: "Without Song Chengkun's joining, the research would have been completed by the end of the year. Now that Song Chengkun has joined, the research can be completed in December."

"That's four months from now!"
