After hearing Terence Tao's words, Cheng Hao looked helplessly at Terence Tao in front of him.
"What? What questions do you have to ask me? Why didn't you say it in the email??"
"No, I really wanted to send you an email, but I knew you were getting married soon, so I wanted to tell you before your wedding!"
"What's up??"
Cheng Hao looked at Tao Zhexuan in front of him with a trace of doubt in his eyes and asked.
At this time, Tao Zhexuan excitedly said to Cheng Hao in front of him: "Do you still remember the Hodge conjecture you told me before???"
"Remember!"
Cheng Hao nodded, looking at Terence Tao in front of him with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
At this time, Tao Zhexuan looked at Cheng Hao in front of him and said, "I have an idea!"
"oh??"
Hearing Terence Tao's words, Cheng Hao looked at Terence Tao in front of him with interest in his eyes.
"Tell me about it!"
Cheng Hao curiously turned to Terence Tao in front of him and said.
Hodge's conjecture! That is also one of the seven major world problems of the millennium!
Cheng Hao only knew a little bit about this conjecture, but he didn't have any special understanding.
It's a superficial taste.
Originally, Cheng Hao and Terence Tao had discussed this issue before, and they just casually asked Terence Tao to study the issue.
I didn't expect Tao Zhexuan to really achieve anything, but I didn't expect that Tao Zhexuan actually did it!
inspiration!
Cheng Hao looked at Terence Tao in front of him with curiosity in his eyes.
“Suppose
Tao Zhexuan quickly told Cheng Hao in front of him about his inspiration, becoming more and more excited as he talked. After speaking, he looked at Cheng Hao in front of him.
"How's it going? What do you think of my inspiration??"
"Wait a moment!"
Cheng Hao's brows furrowed tightly. He picked up the banknotes beside him, swiped them, and wrote a series of mathematical formulas on the paper in front of him.
Soon, I wrote three or four pages.
"call!"
Cheng Hao let out a long breath, looked at Terence Tao in front of him and said, "There is basically no problem in this direction of yours, but as of now, I don't think you can solve this problem."
"Why???"
Hearing Cheng Hao's words, Tao Zhexuan frowned slightly and looked at Cheng Hao in front of him with confusion in his eyes.
Cheng Hao smiled, looked at Terence Tao in front of him and said calmly: "It's very simple. Judging from the calculation I just made, if we don't use a new method to solve this problem, it will be very complicated. This problem!
It’s difficult to solve, you have to innovate a new method!”
"oh?"
Tao Zhexuan was stunned for a moment, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Okay! I will consider this carefully!"
Tao Zhexuan smiled and said to Cheng Hao in front of him.
At this time, Tao Zhexuan suddenly thought of something, and he said to Cheng Hao in front of him: "By the way, Professor Cheng, the NS equation that your research group recently studied seems to have achieved good results!
But why haven’t your results been published in a journal yet?? Are you planning to wait until the solution is completely resolved before publishing it in a journal??”
"Not exactly!"
Cheng Hao shrugged, he smiled slightly and looked at Terence Tao in front of him and said: "I am going to set up a new mathematics journal by myself! You are welcome to submit articles to my journal! I am going to publish all my results on the ns equation in my journal.
in the journal!"
"I knew..."
Tao Zhexuan looked at Cheng Hao in front of him with helplessness in his eyes.
"You should be among the most patriotic of all mathematicians in the world. This kind of thing is something you can do!"
Cheng Hao shrugged and looked at Terence Tao in front of him with a calm expression.
"Otherwise? What is love if you don't love your country? You have a country and a family! The country is the continuation of our blood and the continuation of our cultural roots. Of course, you can't quite understand it.
Although you still have Chinese blood in your body, culturally speaking, you are actually a spiritual white man! Whether you can admit it or not!"
Tao Zhexuan's face was somewhat silent, and he looked at Cheng Hao in front of him with complicated eyes.
"Although I want to refute you, as a conscientious person, I still want to tell you that what you said is right! It is true! I have lived in a white community since I was a child, and all I have come into contact with are white people.
culture.
At least on a cultural level, I am actually a white person! Although I did get a little bit of Chinese culture from my parents.
Even, I can speak a little bit of Cantonese, but these are indeed not enough to become my Chinese cultural genes.
However, I do have complete Chinese ancestry!"
As he said this, Tao Zhexuan's eyes flashed with a hint of sigh.
At this time, Cheng Hao smiled slightly, looked at Terence Tao in front of him and said, "How is it? Are you interested in returning to the embrace of the motherland?"
Hearing Cheng Hao's words, Tao Zhexuan was stunned for a moment. There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes. He looked at Cheng Hao in front of him and said, "I am just a pure mathematician. There seems to be nothing special about me returning to China."
The meaning of it!"
"Of course! And there are a lot of them! If you are willing to come and settle in China, just in time, I will give you the position of editor-in-chief of this new mathematics journal.
Of course, you will also become an employee of our institute!”
Cheng Hao said to Terence Tao in front of him with a smile in his eyes.
"By the way, let me tell you, the salary level in our new research institute is very high, basically twice what you would get at the University of California!"
"Let me think about it!"
Tao Zhexuan looked at Cheng Hao in front of him with a hint of complexity in his eyes.
"Okay! You think about it carefully. Just in time, I'll go see Professor Deligne!"
"good!"
After saying that, Cheng Hao walked out of Terence Tao's room and came to Professor Deligne's room.
"Professor Deligne?"
Cheng Hao gently knocked on Professor Deligne's door and shouted in English.
"Professor Cheng Hao?? Come in! The door is unlocked!"
Cheng Hao opened Professor Deligne's room. At this time, Professor Deligne was writing something on a white paper.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Cheng Hao did not urge him. He stood next to Professor Deligne and looked at the research content above. Cheng Hao's eyes showed a surprised look.
After a while, Professor Deligne frowned tightly and then slowly put down his pen.
He looked at Cheng Hao standing aside.
"Professor Cheng, sit down!"
Cheng Hao sat down next to Professor Deligne and asked Professor Deligne in front of him with a curious look in his eyes.
"Professor Deligne, are you studying the Kakutani conjecture??"
