From university academician to chief academician

Chapter 299 Zhang Yitang wins the Wolf Prize in Mathematics

Adjusting the research direction and formulating a research report for each group cannot be completed overnight.

The team leader needs to discuss the research direction with the team members, then check the information and discuss the research methods. This period takes a month.

One month later, Ye Fei's office!

Ye Fei sat at his desk and looked at the research reports sent by various groups on the computer. Ye Fei made some modifications and then sent the reports back.

Then each group will revise it and send it to Ye Fei, who will revise it again and then send it to each group.

There must be at least five back and forth between this time.

Ye Fei divided the groups into seven groups, namely the radiation equation of state group, the self-gravitational radiation system group, the entropy group, the gravitational collapse group, the black hole entropy group, the total entropy group and the universe modeling group.

Each group conducts different research but collaborates with each other.

After a month and a half, everything was ready for the study, after which the research began.

Ye Fei looked at the research data published in the new newspaper and sighed in his heart: "Just as I thought before, the research speed is indeed very fast."

"At this rate, we can complete the research in another two months!"

"Then we can send the dark matter detector to the dark universe." Ye Fei's eyes lit up: "I can see the dark matter that the physics world has been exploring."

Ye Fei is full of curiosity about dark matter. He wants to know whether dark matter exists.

According to speculation, dark matter is present in every corner of the universe.

Such a magical thing, Ye Fei wanted to know what it was and what its specific function was.

"By the way, the dark matter detector built by the Satellite Department based on my research should be developed!"

The instant shuttle technology has been successfully researched. Previously, the instant shuttle technology was used to create an aircraft engine that allowed the plane to fly from Kyoto to Magic City in one minute.

And now an accelerator for a dark matter detector is developed based on instantaneous shuttle technology.

Of course, instant shuttle technology is specially developed for accelerators for dark matter detectors.

Therefore, the speed of dark matter detectors is much faster than that of airplanes.

After Ye Fei finished speaking, he picked up the phone and called Director Yang of the Satellite Department, and the call was quickly connected.

Ye Fei said: "Hello, Director Yang? I'm Ye Fei!"

"Academician Ye, is something wrong?"

Director Yang is currently standing in the factory, watching many researchers operating machines to build dark matter detectors.

A dark matter detector is like a bird with wings.

In the middle is a rectangular parallelepiped, with long square wings extending out on each side.

Many machines sparkle and operate on dark matter detectors.

Ye Feidao: "Director Yang, I would like to ask if the dark matter detector has been manufactured?"

"I expect the research to be successful in two to three months."

Director Yang said: "I'm almost here too, and the dark matter detector can be successfully manufactured in another month.

When Ye Fei heard this, he felt relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll ask this, Director Yang, you are busy!"

After hanging up the phone, Ye Feixin said: "Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and the progress is the same as the time I estimated."

"If all goes well, the research can be completed in August this year and the dark matter detector can be launched in September."

"If my research is correct, then the lunar dark matter detector will be able to enter the dark universe, and then dark matter will be visible."

Ye Fei's eyes shone brightly and he said, "At that time, I will also know what this dark matter that has troubled the physical world for more than a hundred years is."

Dark matter was proposed by astronomer Kaptan in 1922. It predicted that there may be an invisible and unknown substance in the universe, named dark matter.

Time flies like water, and it’s the end of July in a blink of an eye!

A month ago, Ye Fei went to the Kyoto Satellite Department to check out the dark matter detector that had been built.

Through machine detection, the dark matter detector produced has a speed of Mach 6,000.

It is one hundred times faster than an aircraft engine produced with instantaneous shuttle technology.

Ye Fei predicts that due to air resistance, the speed of the earth will drop a lot. After entering space, the speed will increase even more, and it will be dozens of Mach faster.

Now we are waiting for Ye Fei to successfully study the black hole arrangement and launch the dark matter detector.

On this day, Ye Fei was busy in the laboratory.

At this time, the assistant came over and said: "Dean, Vice President Zhang is looking for you."

"Huh?" Ye Fei turned to look at the assistant on the side with confusion, and asked, "Did he say he wanted anything from me?"

Vice President Zhang is Zhang Yitang. Zhang Yitang rarely visits Ye Fei when Ye Fei is working. He usually visits Ye Fei during meals or after get off work in the evening.

The assistant shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know, but looking at Vice President Zhang, he seems to be very excited."

When Ye Fei heard this, he had some guesses in his mind, but he was not sure yet.

Ye Feidao: "Where is he?"

"The lobby on the first floor!"

"Okay, I'll go down right now."

Ye Fei looked at the researchers beside him and said, "Think carefully about what I just said."

"I'll go down and see Vice President Zhang, and I'll talk to you later."

"Okay, Dean!"

Ye Fei immediately stood up and walked out of the laboratory, taking the elevator to the lobby on the first floor.

After a while, Ye Fei walked out of the elevator and saw Zhang Yitang standing in the lobby from a distance, looking very excited.

"Dean Zhang!" Ye Fei said with a smile: "I see you smiling from afar, what makes you so happy!"

Zhang Yitang saw Ye Fei and walked quickly towards Ye Fei. Before he reached Ye Fei, he said excitedly: "Dean Ye, I won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

The Wolf Prize in Mathematics is one of the four major awards in mathematics, equivalent to the Nobel Prize in mathematics.

In terms of popularity, it is only slightly worse than the Fields Medal.

But in terms of gold content, it is not much worse than the Fields Medal.

In the entire mathematics community, the Fields Medal ranks first, the Wolf Prize in Mathematics ranks second, the Abel Prize ranks third, and the Chern Medal ranks fourth.

However, among the four major awards, the Fields Medal and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics are the most famous. The Abel Prize and the Chern Medal are far behind the Fields Medal and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.

Therefore, every mathematician dreams of winning the Fields Medal and the Wolf Medal in Mathematics.

Zhang Yitang is no exception!

Ye Fei's eyes lit up when he heard this. It was exactly what he thought.

Look at the time for this year’s Wolf Prize Awards Ceremony, it’s about time it was held.

Zhang Yitang spoke loudly, and his excited words could be clearly heard in the entire hall.

Everyone in the hall turned to look at Zhang Yitang. After hearing what he said clearly, everyone's faces showed surprise.

Ye Fei clenched his hands into fists and smiled: "Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Hahaha..." Zhang Yitang walked up to Ye Fei and laughed.

Then he stretched out his hands, held Ye Fei's hand, shook it up and down hard, and said: "Dean Ye, thank you so much for all these years. If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have been able to prove the Landau-Siegel zero point so quickly. Guess, you won’t win the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.”

Ye Fei smiled and said, "I didn't help you much. This is all your own efforts."

"If you had not persisted in studying the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture for many years, you would not have proved the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture successful, let alone win the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"So, it's all your own efforts."

"If it were anyone else, no matter how much I help, I can't prove the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture."

Ye Fei thought that he was not of much help to Zhang Yitang.

If Zhang Yitang had not been studying the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture for many years, he would not have proved the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture so quickly.

And his own role is equivalent to the straw that breaks the camel's back.

When Zhang Yitang heard this, he still said gratefully: "That was with your help."

"You must attend this Wolf Prize Award Ceremony."

Ye Fei smiled and said, "That's for sure. If you don't invite me, I'll be in trouble with you."

"Haha..." Zhang Yitang laughed loudly when he heard this.

At this moment, Zhang Yitang was in high spirits, as if he had returned to the time when he first entered the world of mathematics.

He was also so high-spirited at that time, thinking that Heaven was the boss, Earth was the boss, and he was the third boss, but in the end he discovered that there were Lao Ten Thousand, Lao Nine Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety-Nine in front of him...

And he was outside the 10,000.

Ye Fei asked: "When is the Wolf Prize Award Ceremony? Where is it held?"

Zhang Yitang smiled and said: "August 15th, the location is Jerusalem, Israel!"

Ye Fei nodded and said, "We will go together then."

"Yeah!" Zhang Yitang nodded and said, "Okay!"

An hour later, all the researchers at Ye Fei's Mathematics Research Institute, Universe Research Institute, Meta Blockchain Research Institute and Science Research Institute, as well as other staff of the institute, they all knew that Zhang Yitang had won this year's Wolf Prize. Mathematics Prize.

When everyone saw Zhang Yitang on the road, they all went up to congratulate him.

On August 14, Ye Fei, Zhang Yitang, Wang Yuexinyi and Zhang Yitang’s family flew to Jerusalem, Israel.

At around six o'clock in the evening, Ye Fei and the others arrived in Jerusalem, and then checked into a hotel contracted by the Wolf Foundation for the Wolf Prize Award Ceremony.

Here, Ye Fei saw many of the world's top mathematicians.

Of course, Ye Fei is now also the world's top mathematician.

Many people came up to say hello after seeing Ye Fei, and Ye Fei also chatted a lot with them.

The next day, early morning!

The Wolf Prize Award Ceremony is held every year in the Knesset.

At this moment, it was just dawn, and there were many reporters from all over the world surrounding the door of the Parliament.

CCTV reporters Yu Mengmeng, Tong Siyu, photographers and makeup artists stood together.

Yu Mengmeng looked at Tong Siyu and said, "Siyu, you have been studying with me for a long time. You will do today's report."

"Shall I do it?" Tong Siyu said in shock: "Sister Yu, I'm not good at it. I still have a lot to learn."

"Besides, Sister Yu, this is the Wolf Prize Award Ceremony. I am asked to report on such an important event. What if I make a mistake!"

"You can do it!" Yu Mengmeng cheered: "I believe in you. There is always a first time. After the first time, it will be much smoother to do it next time."

Seeing that Tong Siyu was still hesitating, Yu Mengmeng said, "You have to report even if you don't want to report today. I am your superior, you must listen to me."

Tong Siyu's heart was heavy, knowing that Yu Mengmeng was not suppressing her as a superior, but letting her step onto the stage.

She has been studying with Yu Mengmeng for more than half a year. According to the plan, she will officially take over Yu Mengmeng's job next year.

Therefore, she will have to report it sooner or later.

Tong Siyu secretly encouraged herself: "Tong Siyu, you can do it."

Tong Siyu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I will report today."

Yu Mengmeng, the photographer and the makeup artist looked at this situation with smiles on their faces.

Yu Mengmeng patted Tong Siyu on the shoulder, smiled encouragingly and said, "Siyu, come on!"

"Yeah!" Tong Siyu nodded heavily.

Yu Mengmeng raised her hand to look at the time, put her hand down and looked at Tong Siyu, saying: "It's almost time. Get ready. The report will start in ten minutes."

Then, he looked at the photographer and makeup artist and said, "Xiaoxin, put makeup on her."

"Xiao Gu, adjust the camera!"

Ten minutes later, Tong Siyu faced the camera and said: "Hello, viewers, this is the seat of the parliament in Jerusalem, the capital of Israel."

"Shortly today, the annual Wolf Prize ceremony will be held here."

"This year's Wolf Prize in Mathematics, my country's famous mathematician, Vice President of the Ye Fei Institute of Mathematics, Academician Zhang Yitang, is about to win the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"Academician Zhang Yitang won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, which marks that our country..."

After a while, Tong Siyu finished her report, and then looked at Yu Mengmeng nervously.

Yu Mengmeng showed a smile on her face, gave Tong Siyu a thumbs up, and said: "Siyu, very good, you are awesome!"

When Tong Siyu heard this, her almond-shaped eyes narrowed with laughter.

Yu Mengmeng said: "When Academician Zhang Yitang arrives soon, you will also go up for an interview, do you understand?"

With previous reporting experience, Tong Siyu became much more courageous and said, "Okay."

Around eight o'clock, many mathematicians began to arrive one after another.

Ye Fei, Zhang Yitang and others walked towards the parliament talking and laughing.

Yu Mengmeng, Tong Siyu and others saw Ye Fei in the crowd from a distance.

Tong Siyu said in shock: "Why is Academician Ye Fei here?"

Yu Mengmeng said: "This is normal. Ye Fei and Zhang Yitang are friends, and Zhang Yitang is the vice president of Ye Fei Institute of Mathematics."

"So, it's very normal for Zhang Yitang to invite Ye Fei to attend his award ceremony."

"Siyu, don't just interview Academician Zhang Yitang right now, also interview Academician Ye Fei and ask him what he thinks when Zhang Yitang wins the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"OK!"

When Ye Fei and others were more than thirty meters away from the parliament, many reporters gathered around them.

Tong Siyu held up the microphone in the crowd, and was squeezed like a quail.

When Ye Fei saw it, he scolded the reporters around him: "Why are you crowding? Why are you crowding? Get out of my way."

After saying that, Ye Fei pulled Tong Siyu in front of him from the crowd and said with a smile: "Ms. Tong, are you okay?"

Tong Siyu didn't know why, but when she caught Ye Fei's gaze, her heart pounded, then she blushed, lowered her head slightly and shook her head: "It's okay!"

Ye Fei didn't seem to notice anything strange about Tong Siyu, and smiled and said: "Ms. Tong, you want to interview us, right? Come on, do the interview!"

Ye Fei said to Zhang Yitang and Mochizuki Shinichi beside him: "This is Tong Siyu, a reporter from CCTV 10. She will interview us often in the future."

Zhang Yitang and Mochi Yuexin smiled at Tong Siyu.

Tong Siyu looked at Zhang Yitang and said, "Academician Zhang, I heard that you won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics this time. How do you feel at the moment?"

Zhang Yitang smiled and said: "Of course I am excited!"

"Then what do you want to say at this moment?"

Zhang Yitang said: "My main thanks are to Academician Ye Fei. Without him, I would not have been able to prove the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture so quickly, let alone win the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"I would also like to thank my team, my friends and family, and the many people who have helped me."

“It is because of their selfless support that I received the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.”

Tong Siyu looked at Ye Fei and said, "Academician Ye, do you have anything to say at this moment?"

Ye Feidao: "Academician Zhang is exaggerating. I didn't help him much. All this is his own efforts."

After that, Tong Siyu asked Zhang Yitang and Ye Fei some questions.

The foreign reporters present could only watch with envy.

There was no other way, Ye Fei ignored them completely.

They had not dealt with Ye Fei once before, so they knew Ye Fei's temper.

If other scholars were still afraid of their verbal criticism, Ye Fei was not afraid. No matter what they wrote, Ye Fei didn't care.

Ye Fei is an outlier among scholars and doesn't care much about his reputation.

But Ye Fei doesn't have any scandal and has many fans.

Even if they make it up, no one will believe it.

This made these reporters hate Ye Fei and feel helpless towards him.

After a long time, Ye Fei saw that the time was almost up and said, "Ms. Tong, we are going in."

"Okay!" Tong Siyu quickly stepped aside to let Ye Fei and others in.

After Ye Fei and others entered, Tong Siyu breathed a sigh of relief. When she saw Yu Mengmeng walking to her side, Tong Siyu smiled and said, "Sister Yu, the interview went very smoothly."

"I saw it." Yu Mengmeng smiled.
