Scholar’s Advanced Technological System
Chapter 1030: Sixty Minutes Enough
Like the mathematical community, which has already boiled down to Lehman speculation, the Hotel Clinchia, which is holding an IMU congress, is like the epitome of the entire mathematical community, where people can be heard talking about it everywhere.
Originally, the IMU Congress was also heavily shaded by sudden changes, but before Lehman guessed the difficult problems of the century, however massive the shadows, seemed to be a little insignificant...
“Did you hear that? Lehman's guess proved! ”
“Really? It's not gonna be a dragon again, is it? This is already the first person to claim to prove Lehman's suspicions. ”
“All I can tell you is that it's probably a double digit, maybe a triple digit… but this time it's different! The author of the thesis is Professor Lu! It is said to have been inspired by the 45-minute debriefing of Ms. Vera Puyey, who has finally completed the final step of the certification! He hung the paper on Arxiv yesterday... God, you've never heard of this whole mathematical interpretation discussion? ”
“I can't believe it! Lehman wonders... do you think the International Union of Mathematicians would give him two FILTS awards on an exceptional basis if he proved it? ”
“There is no doubt that Lehman is worthy of such glory… but what is the point of doing so? If he really proves Lehman's guess, why don't we just set up a separate award in his name? ”
“Heard it was his 60-minute debriefing this afternoon… so no wonder he scheduled his own debriefing for the last session of the IMU Assembly. ”
“Do you think he'll temporarily change the content of the briefing? ”
“I don't know! But I can be sure that if I miss this report, it will be a loss for my whole life! ”
There was much discussion in the hotel.
Whether it's a cafe, a restaurant, or an executive lounge, there's some discussion going on about this.
At present, no one in the academic community has made a statement about the content of the paper, and the vast majority of people have not even finished eating it.
Thus, the importance of the 60-minute briefing in the afternoon was particularly prominent for those who followed the progress of the matter but were unable to devour the paper.
Whether or not the Ark will temporarily change the content of the debrief, it is certain that if he chooses to release the paper at this time, he will not say anything about the paper...
On the other side, the hotel's cafe.
Through the hierarchical relationship of the Chinese numeracy community, it took some effort to finally contact the students on the ark - Qin Yue, who was taught in Princeton, asked him to meet Wang Shicheng at the cafe and said in a hurry.
“Have you met Professor Lu? I haven't found him in half a day, and I can't get his room number. Do you know where he is now? ”
If it hadn't been for such an accident, Wang Shicheng would have been reluctant to meet the guy who annoyed him.
But now, not for himself, but for the future of China's mathematics community, why should he meet that person?
Looking at the eager Master Wang Shicheng, Qin Yue slightly hesitated to ask.
“No… but I think he should be in the hospital. ”
Wang Shicheng stunned, obviously not expecting such an answer.
“Hospital?”
Qin Yue nodded and said, "Well, Miss Vera Puyui is his proudest student. ”
“He was actually in the hospital at such an important moment...” Wang Shicheng walked back and forth, and after a few laps he stamped his feet, finally sighing heavily, shook his head, "hey! Forget it, it's not too late now, the afternoon report is about to start. ”
Looking confused at the old gentleman, Qin Yue pushed down his glasses and said.
“… what can I do for you? ”
Master Wang Shicheng opened his eyes and said, “This has to do with the future of our mathematical community in China. Can this be okay? Now the whole world is watching, at least we have to ask, how sure is he? ”
Qin Yue thought about it and said: “If you're worried about this... I don't think it's necessary. ”
Wang Shicheng stunned for a moment and said: "… what do you mean? ”
Qin Yue continued with seriousness: “Professor, if he wasn't 100% sure, he wouldn't release an obviously controversial academic achievement. ”
“So you ask him how confident he is that there is no need. ”
“For him, there must be 10% certainty that the preprinter will be hung on Arxiv. ”
……
There's more to the discussion than just the hotel.
At the doorstep of the Hotel Clincia, the broadcast vehicles of major media outlets are already packed.
Although mathematics is a distant topic for the public, Lehman speculates differently.
The precipitation of time and the legends surrounding it and the huge million-dollar prize, all kinds of things give it a very different meaning from the general mathematical dilemma.
Just like Professor Wiles in Time magazine.
If one truly succeeds in proving Lehman's assumptions, there is no doubt that his photographs will not only appear on the cover of Time magazine, but will also become one of the most distinguished mathematicians of this century - and none of them.
Even though the twenty-first century has just passed a fifth.
Journalists with guns and rifles wanted to pour into the hotel, but unfortunately they were blocked by the big man standing at the door.
“We're BBC reporters, this is my press card, please let us in! ”
“This is the Federal Security Service, and we have been ordered that no one can go in except scholars who have been invited by the General Assembly. If you wish to enter, please contact the Organizational Committee of the General Assembly for admission. ”
“We will then contact the Organizational Committee of the General Assembly, and in fact my assistant has already done so, so please, let us go in first, and the world is now waiting for the results of Lehman's guess to be proven. ”
This statement obviously did not impress the guard standing at the door, the tall Russian, who simply threw a less than humane refusal.
“This has nothing to do with us. ”
In addition to journalists, there are scholars who arrive by plane not far from home.
In fact, this session of the IMU Assembly is almost over. As soon as tomorrow's closing ceremony is over and the venue of the next conference is announced, scholars from all over the world are returning to their homes, and it is obviously too late to come to the IMU conference.
However, these scholars were not meant for the IMU Assembly either.
The upcoming 60-minute debriefing is what they really care about compared to tomorrow's insignificant closing ceremony...
Dragging the suitcase to the hotel door, Professor Tao Zhexuan finally crammed in from the crowd and quickly passed the security check procedure, tidying up the crowded collar while walking into the hotel.
Although he did not sign up for the IMU Conference, there was nothing wrong with a knowledgeable and well-known scholar like him and the General Assembly Organizing Committee greeting him for an empty room.
Fortunately, however, he had done so early, and by the time he had sent the e-mail to Professor Holden, it was said that only two empty rooms had been booked two days later.
And the day before that paper was hung on Arxiv, yesterday, the number was still two digits...
Just past the lobby of the hotel, Professor Tao walked in through the door, and Professor Feverman's face immediately gave a surprised expression.
“You're here? ”
From Los Angeles to St. Petersburg, it's not that close.
In a natural tone, Tao Zhexuan smiled and said, “Of course, how could I have missed something like this? ”
Determined, looking at the laptop bag he had in his hand, Professor Feverman continued, “I guess you've read the paper on the plane. You should study this piece of mathematics more than I do, I'm curious... how do you see the paper? ”
Tao Zhexuan shook his head and said: “There are a few places where there are doubts, the core argument part I don't understand particularly, the time is too short, the flight is only a dozen hours, and I have to adjust the jet lag... this damn jet lag makes me just want to sleep now, I hope I don't fall asleep for a while. ”
Professor Feverman laughed and said, "Can Professor Lu's speech make you sleep? ”
Slightly stunned, Tao Zhexuan smiled and touched the back of his head.
“Exactly. ”
If the key to determining the future of mathematics is to fall asleep...
Needless to say, he has to admire his nerve bars himself.
Just as Professor Tao was preparing to check in at the front desk, he suddenly caught a glimpse of an unexpected figure from the corner of the lobby.
The middle-aged man with a beard, thin hair, no trim, and even a funny dress, explains what to the hotel staff. Perhaps because of his unique appearance and the ambience here, the security guards beside him frequently cast a sight of vigilance at him.
Noting the surprised look on Professor Tao's face, Professor Feverman asked curiously.
“What's the matter? ”
“… nothing, just an accident. ”
Determined, Tao Zhexuan retracted his gaze from there and smiled and said to Professor Feverman.
“Indeed, our Professor Lu is charming. ”
“I didn't expect even that guy to come. ”
……
The report will begin in an hour.
The ark that came back from the hospital locked itself in the room.
Now the entire Hotel Clinchia is surrounded by a huge atmosphere.
Almost all the world's top scholars have turned their attention to the IMU conference that is taking place in St. Petersburg, either already on the spot or on the way...
And it's not just the attention of industry people.
Discussions about that paper have long since spread from academic forums such as Mathoverflow to social platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and Neck for the general public.
Whether it is a serious discussion or an entertaining mindset, there is no doubt that the world is now watching this matter and whether the propositions of this century have been answered.
In the case of ordinary people, in the face of this tremendous pressure, it is probably quite difficult to maintain normal breathing and heart rate and adjust the attitude at the time of the stage.
But that's what it feels like for an ark that's already used to big scenes.
Perhaps for the mathematical community, Lehman wondered whether it might prove controversial, and it would take time for the entire academic community to accept his thesis.
But for the Ark itself...
Since even the systems from the future or higher civilizations have judged his proof to be logical and harmonious, and whether others can understand his process, he is not particularly concerned.
Besides, there's an important thing waiting for him to do.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the room, overlooking the downstairs media relay truck filled with hotel doors, the ark took out its phone and called Chen Yushan, far away from China.
“Hello? What, suddenly thought to call me. ”
The Ark thought about it and said, “How much is my savings? ”
After hearing this sentence, Chen Yushan stunned slightly and said with a headache.
“... how do I know your deposit is on your account? But if you're asking about the funds on the company's books, I can get an accountant--”
“Can you get a hundred million? ”
“… I suspect you're teasing me,” Chen Yushan said without a word, "I'm afraid you have a little trouble with a billion dollars of liquidity, but if you can't get one hundred million out of it... forget about me. ”
As soon as he heard this, he was conscious under the ark: "… how can I do that? ”
He wouldn't run a company.
Without the help of someone you can trust, a lot of things can get into trouble.
Upon hearing the subconscious reaction of the ark, Chen Yushan curled his mouth upwards and was in a good mood to lean against the office chair.
“Go ahead, I'm sure there's something else you'd like to ask me for. I'm curious, too, what it takes to spend so much money all at once. ”
“… not all of a sudden. But it's a real hassle. ”
It took about five minutes for the Ark to explain its thoughts.
After staring at what Ark had said on the phone, Chen Yushan took a while to digest this huge amount of information.
“I guess I see what you mean… that student is important to you. ”
Ark: “Well, this may sound a little crazy, but it may be the only way to save her. ”
After a while of silence, Chen Yushan sighed and said.
“I get it, I'll do as you say. As to whether or not to succeed...”
Ark: “Rest assured, there's something technical about me. ”
After the call, the Ark then dialed several more calls, some to acquaintances of Shangjing 301 Hospital and others to the Higher Institute.
To be as brief as possible, the door rang just as the last call was hung up on the ark.
I walked up to the door and opened it. I saw the young man who had taken him to the Seventh Reporting Room the other day. He stood at the door, looking at him and saying respectfully,
“Dear Professor Ark, Professor Holden has asked me to inform you that your report will begin in thirty minutes, and if you are ready, I suggest you go at least fifteen minutes in advance. ”
After a glance, the ark looked for more or less time, and nodded down.
“I get it. ”
“Now that we're almost there, let's go. ”
Let's get this over with and get on the road.
Sixty minutes for the briefing.
Believe it should be enough.
