The media reporters present rushed to send back the press release as if they had jumped the gun. The major news websites did not even have time to proofread it, so they rushed to publish it word for word.

"Xia Guo mathematician Qin Ke claims to have completely proved the Riemann Hypothesis!"

"In one miraculous hour, the Riemann Hypothesis is likely to become a thing of the past!"

"With all the attention, has the Riemann Hypothesis come to an end?"

"At this moment, the mystery of the Riemann Hypothesis is revealed, and mathematics enters a new era!"

"At the Steele Academic Lecture, mathematician Xia Guo deduced the last set of expressions of the Riemann Hypothesis in public!"

Each exaggerated title points directly to one core news point - the Riemann Hypothesis has been proven!

These press releases spread quickly through radio waves to countries on several continents at terrifying speeds.

Because of the time difference, except for summer in the early morning, in most developed countries, it is either the afternoon, evening, or morning, when social activities are most active. Mathematicians and mathematical researchers in these countries are interested in mathematics.

The reporters learned the news almost immediately.

I don't know how many people screamed in surprise.

Goldbach's conjecture is far more famous than Riemann's conjecture in Xia Guo, but in the international mathematics community, Riemann's conjecture, one of the seven major problems of the millennium, exceeds Goldbach's conjecture in terms of fame, academic status, and academic value.

So when these press releases spread, the entire mathematics community and even academia were shocked.

This is the Riemann Hypothesis!

The most difficult world-class conjecture in the history of analytic number theory! No one!

In the past nearly two hundred years, countless mathematicians have spent their entire lives pursuing their mathematical dreams and taking off the top crown in the world of number theory. But as of yesterday, no mathematician has been able to truly prove it!

Of course, many scholars have claimed to have proved the Riemann Hypothesis in the past, such as Nigerian professor Opeyemi Enoch, but IMU and the Clay Institute of Mathematics have mostly ignored these so-called "proofs"——

Because one only needs to look at the first few pages to see that it is riddled with errors.

But this time it's different.

Because the news media wrote it clearly, the person who announced that the mystery of the Riemann Hypothesis has been completely solved this time is Qin Ke, the most famous genius mathematician in Xia State, and the derivation of the first four sets of expressions of the Riemann Hypothesis!

Moreover, Qin Ke almost completed the derivation process of the fifth and final set of nine expressions in front of two to three thousand viewers in one go!

How could this not make mathematicians from all over the world curious and excited, wanting to see the proof process of the Riemann Hypothesis as soon as possible?

But because this Steele academic lecture was not broadcast live simultaneously, while the media present rushed to apply for copyright to publish the live video on their own websites, the mathematicians who only saw the news briefs went crazy.

Such a major news, but only a simple flash and one or two photos, how it was proved, what mathematical methods were used, what is the real secret of the Riemann Hypothesis, these most critical contents are not even mentioned, which makes people anxious.

Like an ant in a hot nest.

I don’t know how many people went to arXiv to check if there was a paper with the same name. Because of the heavy search volume, the arXiv website was so crowded that it crashed.

Poor arXiv because after Ning Qingyun uploaded the pre-included version of the paper proving Goldbach's conjecture, the lag phenomenon had already occurred. The administrator gritted his teeth and expanded the server's resources by half, but he did not expect that this time it would be even more exaggerated.

, the server resources that had been expanded by half could not handle it for a few minutes before it was declared overloaded and the website could no longer be connected. Even if the administrator wanted to send a notice stating that Dr. Qin Ke had not uploaded the relevant paper to arXiv, he could not do it. He could only wait and see.

I watched with joy, worry and helplessness the "spectacular scene" of arXiv being paralyzed due to too many visitors for the first time in its history.

The message Professor Tao posted on social media was forwarded by countless people, and many people left messages begging Professor Tao to release the videos and photos from that time.

[Professor Tao, please give me a picture or a video. Without a picture, there is no truth!]

Professor Tao replied quickly: "Please stop asking me for photos and videos of the scene. I was just trying my best to keep up with Qin Ke's thinking rhythm throughout the whole process. I almost couldn't keep up. How could I have the time and energy to take photos and videos?"

Everyone, please wait for the videos and photos from the news media. I can only spoil it. This is the most exciting and unforgettable academic lecture I have ever heard, bar none! I remember that several mathematician friends did not have time to attend the conference.

You will regret missing this great historical moment, haha. I have decided to participate in the review of this last set of expression derivation papers no matter what. I want to appreciate the most beautiful moment in mathematics again!

"

This passage made all the mathematicians around the world sit still. Those mathematicians who had originally received the invitation but did not attend the meeting for some reason were even more anxious and regretful. They had known that Qin Ke would make such a fuss.

There is a big movement, even if your leg is broken, you can crawl over and listen!

Large-scale mathematics exchange forums on the Internet were also flooded with news about the Riemann Hypothesis.

[Did Qin Ke from Xia Guo really completely prove the Riemann Hypothesis? I’m so anxious that I’m asking for a lot of money to buy the complete derivation text! I’ve browsed arXiv hundreds of times, and every time I search, ‘the web page cannot be opened’! 】

[Let’s wait for the video... Didn’t the Daily Mail’s newsletter say that? Dr. Qin Ke didn’t have the manuscript in hand. He completed the derivation on the spot. How could it be uploaded to arXiv? 】

[The news brief said it was an on-site derivation? I heard that Dr. Qin Ke only had one hour to report this time. Can it be deduced in such a short time? Why don’t I believe it!]

[Don’t believe it, even proud people like Professor Tao have blown it. I think it’s probably true.]

[Dr. Qin Ke has previously completed the derivation of the first four sets of expressions of the Riemann Hypothesis. It should not be difficult to derive the last set of expressions on this basis, right? 】

[Isn’t it difficult? Haha, have you heard of Professor Gilberto Lopez from Cambridge University? One of the authorities in analytic number theory. He spent three months studying it and didn’t have a clue. He also said that it didn’t take ten years.

Time, I'm afraid I won't see the last set of expressions of the Riemann Hypothesis appear. Do you think it is difficult?】

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! [But now Dr. Qin Ke has indeed deduced it in less than half a year.]

[Hey, the "American Mathematical Society Pioneer" website has published a relatively long press release. It has more than a thousand words. It describes the scene in detail and includes a few photos. Go check it out! 】

[I also found it, but its website was stuck like arXiv. I refreshed it seven times and couldn’t open it... Hey, it finally opened, let me take a look!]

[I opened it immediately and have finished reading it. Judging from this press release, Dr. Qin Ke really completed the derivation on the spot! It’s amazing! This is simply a miracle! Ahhhhh, there are only a few photos, even

They didn’t even take pictures of all the calculations, these reporters are really useless!]

While the Internet was in turmoil, reporters from various countries were sweating profusely. While they were desperately trying to send the video back to the headquarters, they filled out a form to apply to AMS for authorization to publish the live video - of course, this required a licensing fee.

of.

Feng Wanhua, the accompanying teacher at Qingmu University, was lucky because he was the representative of Qin Ke’s alma mater and was the first to obtain authorization to publish the video without paying a fee.

However, it also takes a lot of time to upload the video back to the cloud space of the domestic school, because the entire process is 4K high-definition recording, and the video file is more than 30G, which cannot be uploaded in less than an hour.

While Feng Wanhua uploaded the video in a hurry, he hurriedly wrote a report of several hundred words and sent it back to Qingmu University.

The scene in the MIT auditorium was still very chaotic. Originally, Qin Ke’s question and answer session was supposed to be next, but because Qin Ke consumed a lot of energy, his face was worryingly pale, and his forehead was covered with sweat. AMS Fellow

After discussion, we decided to postpone the question-and-answer session for an hour to give Qin Ke a break. Professor Yevhen Marcus, who won the Steele Lifetime Achievement Award, would continue to give the third lecture.

Professor Yevhen Markus walked up to the podium, and the originally noisy venue barely regained its calm.

Mr. Marcus joked: "With Dr. Qin Ke in front of me, I feel less pressure, because no matter whether what I say next is correct or not, everyone here probably won't be interested in listening carefully, right?"

The audience, who were posting social updates on Twitter and Facebook, marveling or showing off that they had witnessed the great historical moment, suddenly burst into laughter. However, in order to show respect for the reporter, most people

I put down my phone and listened to the report carefully.

This is a pain for those mathematicians who were searching for the keywords "Chink", "Riemann Hypothesis" and "live photos" on major social media. They finally found some photos of on-site reports from several major social platforms, and the results were very surprising.

Soon there was no one to share it with anymore, so they were so anxious that they howled.

Although Mr. Marcus's report was very exciting, Feng Wanhua really didn't want to listen to it. At this time, he was so excited that he couldn't calm down for a long time. He went to greet Qin Ke in the lounge and saw that he was a little sleepy in addition to his spirit.

There was nothing unusual outside, and doctors Chen Ming and Xu Jing were also there, and Ning Qingyun was also taking care of Qin Ke.

Feng Wanhua went outside the venue and looked at the time. It was still past four in the morning in Xia State, and it was estimated that not many people in the country knew about this important event.

Feng Wanhua hesitated for a moment, then dialed the cell phone of Wei Yuanfu, the head of the Department of Mathematics.

The phone rang for a while before it was connected. Wei Yuanfu's nervous voice, still tinged with sleepiness, came from the phone: "Teacher Feng, what happened to Qin Ke?"

Feng Wanhua hurriedly said: "Director Wei, I'm sorry to disturb you in the early morning. Qin Ke woke up at about one o'clock. I sent you a WeChat message at that time. There is nothing wrong with Qin Ke's health. What I want to report to you is

, Qin Ke completed the derivation of the last set of expressions of the Riemann Hypothesis at the recent report meeting, completely proving the Riemann Hypothesis..."

There was a clanking sound on the other end of the phone, as if something had fallen to the ground, and Wei Yuanfu's wife seemed to be complaining about someone calling in the middle of the night to disturb people's dreams. Feng Wanhua didn't dare to let go. After a few seconds, Wei Yuanfu

Yuan Fu's voice trembling with excitement sounded again: "Tell me again, what happened to Qin Ke? Proved the Riemann Hypothesis? Completely?"

"Yes, there has been a commotion on the Internet in foreign countries. I am uploading the complete video of the entire report to the school's cloud space. It will take about an hour. I have also written an on-site report and have sent it to your WeChat.

."

"Okay! Okay! Okay! Well done! Teacher Feng, the school will give you a big credit this time! Where is Qin Ke? Qin Ke is still giving a report or something?" Wei Yuanfu was in such an excited mood.

During this period, there were actually students... Oh, Qin Ke is now considered an "associate researcher" at the associate professor level in the Department of Mathematics, and he proved the Riemann Hypothesis!

That's the Riemann Hypothesis! Although it is not as well-known as Goldbach's Hypothesis in Xia Guo, the international status and significance of the Riemann Hypothesis is simply not comparable to that of Brother Guess. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the highest in the entire history of international mathematics.

A major event that will be remembered and written about!

No matter which country or person writes the history of mathematics in the future, no one will dare to record this great event in less than two hundred words!

"Qin Ke is resting now because he has consumed too much energy. In half an hour, he will go on stage to answer questions from the audience."

Wei Yuanfu pinched his thigh to make sure that he was not in a trance and dreaming, and then asked again: "Did Qin Ke really prove the Riemann Hypothesis? What did he say at that time? Please repeat it to me word for word.

."

After listening to Feng Wanhua's retelling, Wei Yuanfu's hanging heart finally dropped.

He knew Qin Ke very well. If he was not 100% sure, Qin Ke would not publicly declare that the Riemann Hypothesis was established on such an important occasion!

"I understand, please continue to follow up on this matter and contact me as soon as you have news. I will not sleep from this moment on, waiting for your news!"

"Yes, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task."

"Do a good job, I'm optimistic about you."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Feng Wanhua was coaxed to go to work happily, and Wei Yuanfu quickly dialed the number of his direct leader, Vice Principal Gu Bojun.
