Xu Shengzhou was lost in thought in the cafe. In the blur, there was a person standing next to the booth and asked politely: "Excuse me, are you Xu Shen?"

This made Xu Shengzhou wake up and found that there was a handsome and fair junior standing opposite. He was not tall, only about 1.70 meters tall. He probably had seen him somewhere before, so he came to say hello. Xu Shengzhou was not confident enough in himself yet.

I posted an article on the "Big Four" and a few core articles in Chinese. I have fans all over the world and people know me wherever I go. In fact, let alone myself, I am just an academician and school leader. I am walking quietly on the road and I know everyone.

Not much. He replied: "Hello, I am Xu Shengzhou. Are you from the School of Mathematics or the School of Planning?"

"Hello Xu Shen, I am a sophomore in the School of Planning and Design. My name is Lu Jiayang. I met you before when you gave a lecture in the school."

Sure enough. However, Jiyuan is a large courtyard, with one or two hundred people in each term. He and Lu Jiayang are separated by several terms, so it is normal whether they have met or not. Xu Shengzhou stretched out his hand and asked the other party to sit down: "Then you are my direct descendant.

Junior brother! You can call me by my name. You can also call me senior brother. 'Xu Shen' sounds weird."

"Senior brother is the great master of our School of Planning. We all admire him very much and feel that he is our pride!" Lu Jiayang is very good at talking, and with his good looks, he is not annoying. After he sat down, he said politely

Explained: "The reason why I take the liberty to disturb senior brother is that I have a question I want to ask you."

"Please speak."

"It's like this. I have never been able to figure out what I like. When I chose to study computer science, I just thought it was more popular, so I joined in the fun and signed up with others. I listened to your lecture at the School of Engineering last semester and felt very inspired.

, I feel that doing mathematical research should be quite interesting. So I want to ask my teacher, do you think it is feasible for me to switch from computers to mathematics?"

Xu Shengzhou was shocked. He didn't expect that his practice in the Institute of Planning and Design to earn points would have such side effects. He quickly advised: "Isn't the computer good? It's easy to find a job and has a high salary. As far as I know,

Most of those who applied for the Department of Mathematics and devoted themselves to mathematics research after reading the reportage "Goldbach's Conjecture" regretted it. Of course, if you really like mathematics, it is not impossible to switch departments."

Lu Jiayang replied a little shyly: "I don't have to think too much about employment, high salary, etc."

Uh... I understand, you are the legendary rich second generation, right? Sorry, sorry, I am superficial! Xu Shengzhou was envious and jealous, but at the same time he felt strange: "Then why did you come to Beijing Normal University? With your

Depending on your grades and your family background, you can definitely go to a very good science and engineering school during the college entrance examination." After all, the most famous thing about Beijing Normal University is education, and the most attractive thing is education. Like the School of Computer Science, you can't be a grandma or an uncle.

The low-end departments of The Edge of Love are completely sidekicks and scraps. They can only deceive the children of ordinary families in small counties like Xu Shengzhou who have never seen the world. Anyone with some knowledge knows that he should choose a famous school, and even a famous school.

Strong disciplines, first-class majors.

Lu Jiayang replied matter-of-factly: "Because in 985, there are not as many girls ranked higher than our school; there are more girls than our school, but the rankings are not as high as ours. So I chose our school!"

This is a must-have, full marks! Must be full marks!

Lu Jiayang then asked: "Then why did senior brother choose our school?"

Xu Shengzhou thought to himself, since you have already pretended, wouldn’t it be a bit rude for me not to pretend? Well, I will also pretend to be big: "Because our school is closest to the film school, I think if I can take a few steps less, it will be less."

Take a few steps."

Lu Jiayang was stunned.

"Hahaha, it's just a joke. The real reason is for good employment. Think about it, computers themselves are a rising industry that is good for employment. If we encounter a crisis at the age of 35, we can still rely on the golden name of our Capital Normal University.

, go to private schools and training institutions and eat a mixed meal. It's just like eating two fishes. It's like Qin Shihuang touching the wires - winning! Am I very clever?"

Lu Jiayang continued to be stunned: "But I heard that your family is very rich, senior brother. When you graduated, I bought you a private college to practice?"

Xu Shengzhou was very angry: Who are these people? Why are they spreading rumors about me everywhere? As a result, no one believes me when I tell the truth. Will I still be a good person in the future? At this moment, Zhang Jianzhi, who was far away in the office building of the Institute of Science and Technology,

Mr. Yang, who worked in the office building of the Institute of Planning and Design, obviously didn't catch a cold, so he couldn't help but sneeze. He was so frightened that he quickly put on some clothes. But you must continue to tell lies that should be told, otherwise others will doubt your character.

Xu Shengzhou feels that his nose has grown a lot recently, and it has a tendency to develop like a hooked nose: "The current situation is like this, big factories are laying off employees one after another, and computer employment is not optimistic, so I went to a private school in advance. But you want to study mathematics?

, there are two conditions that must be met at the same time, one is talent, and the other is interest, both are indispensable. Otherwise, those courses in mathematics majors will torture you to death!"

Lu Jiayang is very confident: "I got full marks in mathematics in both semesters!"

Xu Shengzhou smiled slightly: "Once upon a time, there was a tree called Gaoshu, and many people hung on the tree. There was a grave next to the tree, called Calculus, and many people were buried in it. Right? You will know this when you learn mathematics.

It's just an introductory level, and real mathematics has just begun. Well, go to the library and borrow some professional textbooks from the mathematics department, such as modern algebra, partial differential equations, or algebraic geometry. Wait until you finish reading this before answering this question.

Question?"

"Then can you please ask my senior brother to give me some questions and do my homework after class?"

Xu Shengzhou thought for a while: "Okay. Which branch of mathematics do you like? Let me state in advance that mathematics is a huge, complex and profound subject system, and I only have a superficial understanding of some subjects."

"Which subject is my senior brother best at?"

"Algebraic geometry, right? You're relatively familiar with it."

"Then ask my senior brother to ask questions about algebraic geometry!"

Xu Shengzhou couldn't help but remind: "Be discerning! Algebraic geometry is currently the most important and mainstream branch of mathematics. Its influence covers almost the entire system of mathematics. Most of the top talents in mathematics are concentrated in this branch.

.However, algebraic geometry and other branches of mathematics also require a lot of basic knowledge to get started, which is very discouraging for beginners!"

"It's okay, I just used this to test whether I have any talent for learning mathematics."

"Okay then," after all, good words can't persuade a damned person, and mercy can't save others. Since the other party's will is so determined, Xu Shengzhou doesn't need to be a villain. "I'll give you three questions. The first one is entry-level. If you can do it,

If you can figure it out, it shows that you already have a little understanding of algebraic geometry. The second question is a little more difficult, but if you can do it, it shows that you have some mathematical talent. The third question can completely make a short paper. If you can still do it,

I can help you recommend it to Professor Zhang Jianzhi for publication, and I sincerely recommend that you transfer to the Institute of Mathematics to avoid wasting your great qualifications."

"Thank you, senior brother, I will work hard!" Lu Jiayang waved his fist vigorously.

Xu Shengzhou thought for a moment, wrote three questions on a napkin and handed them to the other party.

But this was just a chance encounter in a coffee shop and an episode in his daily life. After a few days, Xu Shengzhou completely forgot about it. I believe he will encounter many more in his long career in the future.

Such a spur-of-the-moment mathematics enthusiast wants to prove the Riemann Hypothesis or

"1 1=2", but most people stop at calculus.

The days that followed were stable and ordinary, somewhat like the passage of time.

Except for Su Shanyue, China Science and Technology Vocational College received no results from the special job fair of Beijing Normal University. He Xinghua, Director of the Personnel Office, traveled all over the world, and in the end he only received a few three or four PhDs. And it was not like

TOP2, C9 specializes in selecting the youngest, best and most promising top talents. Unlike 985, where double first-class elite schools can select the best from the best, the ones recruited by China Science and Technology Vocational College are basically "defective products", or like

People who are as old as Su Shanyue either have a bad background, have a bachelor's degree, a master's degree, and a Ph.D., or they don't want to work hard and can't find a middle-aged and elderly aunt from a wealthy family to take over, so they can only go to private colleges and work lazy.

Fortunately, their papers have been verified by Xu Shengzhou, and at least the doctorate hats on their heads are not fake, let alone Xibei. After all, China Vocational College of Science and Technology is not a nursing home, nor a garbage collection center, and it also depends on KPIs.<

/p>

Don’t want to struggle? That’s because the money is not enough! A C journal article in the humanities and social sciences costs 6,000 yuan. Do you want to write it? If you don’t want to write it, add more money. Who wants the school to have billions lying on its books! 8,000 yuan to write or not

?10,000? As long as there are enough silver bullets, formaldehyde in the office will fascinate them!

In the past few months since the school implemented the paper reward policy, nearly 10 papers have been sent to Xu Shengzhou for review, and the results are still very significant. Of course, these papers are basically put together temporarily, so don’t expect too much quality.

It’s too high. It’s a pure 24K academic garbage. It’s a miracle that it can be published in a general journal! Fortunately, Xu Shengzhou also knows the details of these people. As long as they don’t commit academic misconduct and don’t say inappropriate words, it doesn’t matter what academic journal they are in.

It is their ability to be published. They just need to pay for the publication.

Rubbish papers are a matter of standard. Academic misconduct is a moral issue. China Science and Technology Vocational College is a rubbish private college. It is expected to publish rubbish papers. Both reviewers and readers will have "sympathetic understanding".

If you engage in academic misconduct, your reputation will be ruined and you will become a street rat, with everyone calling for beatings.

On this point, Xu Shengzhou made a very clear distinction.

In these ordinary days, the only thing worth remembering is that after nearly two months of hard work, I finally succeeded in proving the decomposition theorem of the generalized theta function space of any rank. It is almost the same as Hengping, but it is still a little behind. But Xu Shengzhou is still very good.

He was happy and excited beyond words. Heng Ping was a little surprised: "How come you are happier than the 'Big Four'?"

"The nature is different."

"Why is it different?"

Xu Shengzhou was at a loss for words. He couldn't say that there were standard answers to the 'Big Four' papers before, and this time he was writing a paper to answer the questions independently, right? His mind changed quickly, and then he replied: "I used to work alone, but this time it's teamwork."

”

After listening to Xu Shengzhou's explanation, Hengping was also very proud: "To become a mathematician, one only needs to work hard. But to become a master of mathematics, one must know how to divide labor, collaborate, and share what is needed, so as to effectively stimulate creativity. This is also the case for participating in a research group.

What are the benefits of the seminar? How about it? Which magazine do you plan to submit to?"

Xu Shengzhou was very hesitant.

In the past, it was very simple to choose which journal to submit to. Intermediate academic papers were submitted to the "Big Four" and junior academic papers were written in Chinese core. And the idea was also very simple. If you can get in, just get in. If you can't get in, just change to another one. There is no need to worry. Now I don't copy the answers to the first article.

, when the paper that he spent countless efforts on was about to be submitted, he began to worry about gains and losses. He was afraid of not winning if he submitted high, and he was afraid of losing money if he submitted low. In the final analysis, it was Xu Shengzhou’s lack of overall understanding of the subject system, which led to insufficient judgment on the value of academic papers.

, and at the same time, he is too self-conscious and unavoidable to be hesitant. Especially in the former aspect, he is far inferior to Heng Ping who has received systematic education.

"Journal_of_Algebra ("Journal_of_Algebra")?" he asked tentatively. Rumor has it that this is also the top journal in algebra.

Heng Ping shook his head: "Not good, it's too low."

"Advances_in_Mathematics" ("Advances in Mathematics")?" Xu Shengzhou did some homework and knew that this is a top mathematics journal recognized in the industry. It is dedicated to publishing important breakthrough results in various fields of pure mathematics and has a high academic reputation.

Although the quality of the magazine has declined in recent years, it is still a very good magazine in mathematics!

Heng Ping said: "Let's go to Journal_of_Algebraic_Geometry! The world's top mathematics professional journal is also professionally matched. The founder and editor-in-chief, the Emperor of Mathematics Academician Qiu, has a good relationship with our Beijing Normal University, for the sake of friendship.

, even if there are some small problems, it will not be rejected directly. Besides, your paper is very important, and it will not be a problem to submit it."
