Chapter 82 Going to the capital to give lectures to many mathematicians! (1
When Lu Tao and Zhang Wei returned to Beijing University, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
They did not go home and went directly to Lu Tao's office.
Lu Tao often works overtime until late at night, then doesn't go home and makes do with sleeping in the office one night.
"Professor Zhang, let's seize the time to catch up on some sleep. We'll start calling our colleagues at seven in the morning to get them involved," Lu Tao said as he lay down on the sofa.
Zhang Wei nodded. In order to prevent him from being unable to get up, he set the alarm clock.
Then the two of them slept for three or four hours.
Before seven o'clock, the two of them woke up at the same time.
"Professor Lu, you have been driving for such a long time, please sleep a little longer. I will call my colleagues to inform them." Zhang Wei took the initiative.
"How can I sleep? Professor Zhang, to tell you the truth, I am extremely excited at the moment. If Tang Feng's proof of the Riemann Hypothesis is successfully verified, it will definitely cause a sensation all over the world. We can also be considered
Witnesses of this historical moment." When Lu Tao said this, his eyes flashed with anticipation.
"Who says it's not? The Riemann Hypothesis is a mathematical problem that many mathematicians dream of solving. If Tang Feng's proof process is correct, then he will become the top mathematician in China and even the world. Kyungseong University is very
Maybe he will be promoted to professor as an exception." Zhang Wei also looked very excited.
"It's normal to be a professor if you can prove the Riemann Hypothesis. But I'm a little worried..." When Lu Tao said this, the expression on his face became solemn.
"Are you worried about him accepting invitations from top foreign universities?" Zhang Wei guessed.
"Yes." Lu Tao nodded and said, "He is fully qualified to serve as a tenured professor in top prestigious universities."
"The qualification of a tenured professor is not that easy to obtain. Besides, those top universities may not be willing to do so," Zhang Wei said.
"Who knows. The competition for top talents is still very fierce. Whether it is our Kyungsung University or Shuimu University, a large number of graduates go abroad every year. A large part of these people will choose to stay directly.
I am abroad and will not come back." When Lu Tao said this, he couldn't help but sigh.
He really felt very sad.
After all, so many outstanding talents have gone abroad!
Zhang Wei said nothing.
What Lu Tao said does make sense.
If those top foreign universities really extend an olive branch to Tang Feng, things will become quite troublesome.
With the current strength of Beijing University, it is far behind compared with top foreign universities!
After all, it is 2003 now. If another thirty or fifty years pass, maybe we can compete with the top foreign universities!
"We'd better hurry up and notify our colleagues to come over! Verify Tang Feng's certification process first! If the verification fails, then we don't have to worry about Tang Feng being poached by a top foreign university for the time being. If the verification is really successful, we will talk about it then.
." Zhang Wei said.
"Yeah." Lu Tao nodded.
They started making phone calls.
Not long after, eighteen professors from the mathematics department came here.
Two of them are academicians.
"Academician Gao! Academician Lin!" Lu Tao faced two great figures in mathematics and quickly stepped forward to say hello.
"Professor Lu, you just said on the phone that someone has proved the Riemann Hypothesis. Is this true?" Academician Gao asked impatiently.
"Yes." Lu Tao nodded and said, "But it has not been verified yet. I called and invited everyone to come over just to use your strength to complete the verification."
"Where is the proof process?" Academician Gao then asked.
Lu Tao took out the manuscript written by Tang Feng.
Academician Gao was very surprised when he saw so many manuscripts.
Especially when he saw the words written by Tang Feng, he was even more surprised.
After all, his calligraphy is also very good. And he is also a member of the Chinese Calligraphers Association.
"Professor Lu, what does this person do? His handwriting is quite extraordinary!" Academician Gao exclaimed in surprise!
"To tell you the truth, he is still a student." Lu Tao answered truthfully.
He really couldn't believe that these words in front of him were written by a student!
"Is it possible that this student also proved the Riemann Hypothesis?" Academician Gao couldn't help but guess.
"Yes." Lu Tao nodded.
Academician Gao didn't speak for a long time.
"Academician Lin, can you believe this is written by a student?" Academician Gao asked as he handed over the manuscript.
Academician Lin took it and took a look, with an incredible expression on his face.
Then, other professors also read the manuscript.
Everyone was obviously deeply shocked.
"Professor Lu, where is this student now?" Academician Lin asked.
"He is in Binjiang City." Lu Tao replied.
"Binjiang City? How did you know this student?" Academician Gao felt very puzzled.
"Academician Gao, do you know that this year's top scorer in science in Dongshan Province got full marks?" Lu Tao asked.
"I really don't know about this. But this is the first time I've heard of a perfect score in the college entrance examination. Did this candidate get extra points?" Academician Gao then asked.
"No." Lu Tao shook his head and said, "He is completely naked."
Not only Academician Gao, but other professors were also surprised!
After all, even with extra points, it is almost impossible to get full marks in the college entrance examination.
But the candidate Lu Tao was talking about not only got full marks, but also got no extra points!
This is true genius!
"Professor Lu, could it be that this candidate proved the Riemann Hypothesis?" Academician Lin asked.
"Yes." Lu Tao nodded and said, "His name is Tang Feng, and he is a senior student at Binjiang No. 1 Middle School."
"I really didn't expect that there are such powerful students in the world! God bless China! It seems that our country is about to give birth to another mathematical genius!" Academician Gao couldn't help but admire.
"Academician Gao, should we verify these manuscripts first?" Lu Tao suggested.
"Although these manuscripts only have more than 200 pages, they involve a lot of formulas. We also need to verify some of the formulas. With just our manpower, I'm afraid it will take a week. I will make a call soon to summon some colleagues from universities.
Come here and let them participate." Academician Gao took the initiative.
"Okay." Lu Tao nodded.
"No matter what the result of the verification is, you must find a way to get this student to apply for our mathematics department. As long as he is willing, I can personally take him." Academician Gao told Lu Tao.
"He has already applied for our mathematics department." Lu Tao responded.
"Oh? Really? That's really great! Originally, I was worried that when my colleagues at Shuimu University knew the news, it would have an adverse impact on us. It seems that I was overly worried." Academician Gao relaxed.
One breath.
"Not only will he apply for our mathematics department, but his classmate, who should be considered his girlfriend, has also applied for our school's finance major." Lu Tao added.
"Really? When they come to school, you let me know and I want to meet them." Academician Gao suddenly became interested.
"Okay." Lu Tao nodded.
Then, Academician Gao started calling colleagues from other universities.
Prepare to verify these manuscripts of Tang Feng.
Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli were not idle either.
They came to the driving school and began to formally learn to drive a vehicle.
Regardless of whether they are coaches or students, they both have special admiration for them.
After all, Tang Feng is the science champion in Dongshan Province!
And it’s still the top scorer!
In the process of learning to drive, I also enjoyed a lot of benefits.
In less than a week, the two successfully passed all the tests and obtained their driver's licenses.
At the same time, the admission notice from Beijing University was also successfully delivered.
On the day the notice was sent, Tang Feng's home could be said to be overcrowded.
Many TV stations and newspapers sent reporters.
After all, the admission notice Tang Feng received was the first one sent by Capital University in Dongshan Province this year!
From this point, we can also see that Beijing University attaches great importance to Tang Feng!
Of course, because Tang Feng chose to apply for Beijing University, Beijing University also stole the show!
Tang Feng took the admission notice from the postman and handed it to his parents standing next to him.
Witnessed by many media reporters, Tang Long and his wife opened the admission notice.
Then show it to everyone.
Then, Tang Feng also said a few words sincerely.
Su Xiaoli stood not far away and felt very happy when she saw these scenes.
Been busy all morning.
After everyone left, Tang Feng and others breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Tang Feng's cell phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and found that it was Lu Tao.
He quickly pressed the answer button.
In the past week, Lu Tao has not contacted him.
He also didn't know how the verification was progressing.
Although the system has sent him the task reward, he still feels a little uneasy.
"Professor Lu!" Tang Feng greeted.
"Tang Feng, are you at home now?" Lu Tao's voice sounded a little urgent.
"At home." Tang Feng replied.
"Hurry up and pack things up. I have already contacted the Binjiang City Education Department, and they will send a car to take you to Beijing University." Lu Tao explained his intention.
"Ah?" Tang Feng was obviously stunned for a moment.
This is too anxious!
"What? Do you have any questions?" Lu Tao asked.
"Professor Lu, did my manuscript fail the verification?" Tang Feng guessed.
"No." Lu Tao shook his head and said, "When we were verifying it, we found that the six formulas used in it were never seen before. One of the formulas was successfully deduced with everyone's efforts. But the rest
We can't deduce the Wudao formula no matter what. So, we have no choice but to invite you to Beijing University to explain to everyone how the Wudao formula is derived."
"That's it! I thought the verification failed! In that case, I'll go over there. However, I have a request." Tang Feng stopped here.
"Say it! As long as we can do it, there is absolutely no problem."
"I want to take Su Xiaoli with me. We can take advantage of this opportunity to visit the campus of Beijing University in advance." Tang Feng suggested.
"No problem! When you arrive, I will send someone to take you around!" Lu Tao agreed happily.
"Okay! See you later!"
call ended.
"Xiaoli, do you want to go home?" Tang Feng discussed with the other party.
"What are you going to do when you go home?" Su Xiaoli was a little confused.
"Go home and change clothes. Someone will come over and take us to Beijing University in a while." Tang Feng replied.
"Ah? Do you have enough time?" Su Xiaoli's face changed slightly.
"There's enough time! I'll go back with you!"
Soon, the two came to Su Xiaoli's home.
Su Xiaoli changed into new clothes and simply put on makeup.
Tang Feng couldn't help but look at it a few more times, making Su Xiaoli a little embarrassed.
"Xiaoli, should you call Uncle Su and talk about it?" Tang Feng reminded the other party.
"Yes!" Su Xiaoli called her father.
When her father heard that she was going to Beijing University with Tang Feng, he quickly gave her instructions.
Then, the two returned to the downstairs of Tang Feng's house.
There is already an Audi A6 parked downstairs.
"Hello, classmate Tang Feng! I am Zhang Gang, the deputy director of the Education Bureau."
"Director Zhang, hello."
"I was entrusted by the leader to send you to Beijing University on a special trip."
"Thanks a lot."
"You should. Get in the car!"
Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli got in the car.
Zhang Gang waited until they were seated, then went to the passenger seat and sat down.
The driver started the car.
Heading towards the direction of Beijing University.
Along the way, Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli didn't talk much.
The two of them clasped their fingers together, looking at each other from time to time and smiling knowingly.
Zhang Gang did not disturb them either.
After a seven-hour drive, they successfully arrived in the capital.
Since the driver was not familiar with the road conditions in Beijing, Lu Tao drove in advance and waited on their only route.
"Director Zhang, this is Professor Lu Tao from the Department of Mathematics of Beijing University." Tang Feng helped introduce.
"Professor Lu, hello!" Zhang Gang greeted quickly.
"Director Zhang, thank you for sending them here. Unfortunately, I still have very important work to do, so I can't entertain you. When you come to Beijing University again when you have time, I will treat you to dinner." Lu Tao said.
A few polite words.
"Professor Lu, you are so polite! Since there is nothing else, let's go back first! When classmate Tang Feng returns, you can call me! I will pick you up!" Zhang Gang offered.
"No need." Lu Tao waved his hand and said, "I will send him back then."
When Zhang Gang saw him saying this, he stopped insisting.
Both sides said goodbye.
Then Zhang Gang got in the car and left here.
Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli got into Lu Tao's car.
"Classmate Tang Feng, haven't you eaten yet?" Lu Tao asked with a smile.
"No." Tang Feng shook his head.
"When we get to school, I'll take you to the cafeteria to have something to eat first, and then we'll go to the conference room." Lu Tao made arrangements.
"Conference room? Are there still meetings so late?" Tang Feng was a little surprised.
"It's not a meeting. Didn't I tell you on the phone before? During the verification, everyone only derived one of the formulas. The remaining five formulas cannot be derived anyway! Everyone is waiting in the conference room now.
I hope you can deduce the five formulas." Lu Tao replied.
"Ah? You mean everyone is already in the conference room now?" Tang Feng's tone suddenly raised an octave.
"Yes." Lu Tao nodded and said, "There are almost fifty people."
"In that case, let's go directly to the conference room." Tang Feng made a quick decision.
He is just a junior, how can he let so many people wait for him.
It's really hard to explain.
"They have been in the conference room all day, not for a while. Besides, when you go to the conference room, you don't know when it will end." Lu Tao reminded the other party.
"In that case, we can just eat something casually! Don't make everyone wait for too long." Tang Feng agreed.
Soon, they arrived at the cafeteria of Beijing University.
Lu Tao took out his meal card and handed it into Tang Feng's hand.
“You can eat whatever you want!”
Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli bought two portions of vegetables and two portions of rice.
"Professor Lu, do you want to eat something?" Tang Feng asked with a smile.
"Before I went to pick you up, I had already eaten a box lunch in the conference room. You guys should eat quickly." Lu Tao responded.
Perhaps because they were too hungry, Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli ate quickly.
After they had eaten and drank enough, Lu Tao took them to the teaching building located in the northeast corner of the school.
