"Oh? When you say that, do you think no one will solve this problem within ten years?"
"That's not true." Deligne smiled and said a larger number: "Twenty-five years, I think it must be at least twenty-five years. I also studied this issue a few days ago. It's
The difficulty is not low, it is very high.”
"Why twenty-five years?"
"Because the Weil conjecture was proposed in 1949, and I completed the proof in 1974, which was exactly twenty-five years ago."
"Then it seems that you think Lin's conjecture is no less difficult than the Weil conjecture you proved."
"Haha, no one can explain the difficulty of the conjecture. However, in terms of the importance of the conclusion, Lin's conjecture is probably not lower than Weil's conjecture."
"I see, then let me ask you another question, how do you evaluate this Lin Xiao?"
"Evaluating Lin Xiao... Well, to borrow a sentence from Professor Pompieri, his mathematical talent should be recorded in the annals of history in the mathematical world. Every time I think about him being only eighteen years old, I can't help but
I can’t help but be surprised. Even among the mathematical geniuses that I can think of in history, there are probably only geniuses like Gauss, Euler, and Riemann. So I believe that as long as Lin Xiao can continue to further his studies in mathematics,
He will reach a point that is incredible, at least I can’t imagine it now.”
"It seems that you have a really high opinion of him. However, do you think that if he had been studying in China, he would have been able to develop to the level you said?"
Hearing this question, Deligne frowned, glanced at the interviewer, and asked: "Why not?"
Seeing that Deligne was a little angry, the interviewer could only give up asking such malicious questions.
However, this interview was still published, with the title "Mathematical Genius Comparable to Gauss and Euler". This media is quite famous in Europe and the United States. Many people couldn't help but wonder when they saw this title.
I became curious, and after reading it, I also admired Lin Xiao.
Anyone who is only eighteen years old and can make such great achievements in mathematics, which is regarded as the most difficult subject in the world, will be admired by everyone.
Major domestic media outlets also caught wind of this and introduced the situation of this International Congress of Mathematicians, and then solemnly introduced Lin Xiao, winner of the Fields Medal, Abel Prize, and Wolf Medal.
A young genius whom many mathematicians highly praise.
For example, Observation Network, Citizen Daily, Huaqing Daily, etc., all made special reports.
As for the scarf, it once again appeared in the top five hot searches.
[The eighteen-year-old mathematical genius in China proposed an important mathematical conjecture]
After clicking in, it mainly introduced Lin Xiao's one-hour report at the International Congress of Mathematicians. He also briefly introduced Lin's conjecture and quoted the comments of many mathematics masters, including Deligne.
Those high praises and the seemingly awesome titles of these reviewers shocked every netizen who saw this.
So the comment area exploded again.
"I knew it was Lin Shen again before I even clicked in."
"Once in May, once in June, once in July, and now again in August, I declare that Lin Shen is the only person who is not a celebrity but can be frequently searched!"
"This guess looks so awesome"
"Stop being so awesome, I can't even understand"
"Everything that God Lin does is awesome; everything that God Lin achieves is beyond the reach of mortals."
"Good guy, you are separated from these two people"
"No more talking, I have to go to the official website of the International Congress of Mathematicians to download Lin Shen's paper."
"If a young man is strong, the country will be strong (thumb)(thumb)"
…
In this way, under such publicity that was almost shared both at home and abroad, Lin Xiao's name was almost known to many people in the world.
Even though his name will be forgotten in the future, for him, he is still considered famous.
Of course, for Lin Xiao, he didn't care whether he was famous or not.
Being famous is already a low-level interest for him, and only solving problems one after another and allowing himself to continue to get closer to the truth is what makes him feel interesting.
Other than that, just appreciate his handsomeness——
"Tsk, I'm so handsome giving the report."
At this moment, in Lin Xiao's hotel room, he was watching news released by a media outlet on the Internet. There was a picture in it of him standing on the stage, introducing Lin's conjecture to the world for the first time.
Some filters were added to the photo, which immediately created a sense of mystery about unsolved mathematical problems.
In the picture, he is wearing a suit, which highlights his tall and straight figure and the faint smile on his face.
The more Lin Xiao looked at it, the more satisfied she became. She downloaded the picture. After thinking about it, she opened QQ Moments and the scarf, and posted the picture with the text: Only handsomeness cannot be let down.
Not long after the results were sent out, he received a lot of notifications.
It's okay for KouKou there, there aren't many people, and he doesn't have many close friends either. They're just acquaintances and classmates, but BiBi is much crazier.
He now has more than 500,000 fans of scarves, and they are not zombie fans, but real fans. So as soon as he issued the scarf, it immediately attracted countless people's reposts and replies, especially those about him.
The search is still on the hot search list.
Lin Xiao briefly looked at these people's replies and finally shook his head in disappointment.
Why are they all praising him for being awesome?
Can't you just read his caption?
This generation of netizens has no spirituality!
So he closed his scarf and looked bored.
After thinking for a while, he opened his personal panel and took a brief look at this wave of gains.
Of course, the system also gave him generous rewards for his perfect performance in the report.
First, he gave an academic report and answered everyone's questions perfectly, giving him 100 mathematical experience points and 2 truth points.
He proposed a new conjecture, and this conjecture was of great significance in the mathematical world, so he was given 200 mathematical experience points and 3 truth points.
A total of 300 experience points and 5 truth points, so Lin Xiao’s current personal panel has also changed:
[Host: Lin Xiao]
【Truth Point:32.2】
[Cosmic Truth Branch Level]
[Mathematics: Level 3 (546/1000)]
[Chemistry: Level 0 (7/10)]
[Physics: Level 0 (7/10)]
[Biology: Level 0 (7/10)]
[Materials Science: Level 0 (5/10)]
[Informatics: Level 0 (5/10)]
"Well, I still need more than 400 experience points to level up."
I don’t know how much brain development it can provide at level 4.
"However, the other subjects are all at level 0. We should find ways to upgrade them later."
I originally thought that I would start reading books on other subjects during the two-month holiday after the college entrance examination to give myself some experience. However, I didn’t expect that during the two-month holiday, I would be busy all the time.
However, after the International Congress of Mathematicians, he will be basically fine and can calm down and take a look.
In addition, the start of the semester at Beijing University is not far away. Freshmen reported on August 30, and by the time the International Congress of Mathematicians ends, it will be mid-August when he returns home, and he will only be able to stay for half a month.
However, probably because he had been staying outside for the past two months, Lin Xiao got used to this feeling of being alone.
Moreover, researching alone is also his preferred environment. Once there are more people around him, there will be more things coming and going. You may have to socialize frequently, such as Lin Xiao after attending IMO.
, I often encounter this situation when I go home. Even relatives who have not been in touch with each other in the past have called me and want to come to the door.
Of course he doesn't like this situation, or people who like academic research don't like it. Even if they are communicating with others, these people also like to communicate with people who are also engaged in research.
Just like what is said in the inscription in the Humble House, there are great scholars who talk and laugh, and there are no idle people who come and go. If you stay with like-minded people, it is naturally the best.
Lin Xiao shook his head and stopped thinking about these things.
At this time, he noticed that he had now accumulated 32.2 truth points.
He raised his eyebrows and suddenly asked: "System, how many truth points do you need to solve the Riemann Hypothesis?"
"According to the host's math level, 3000 truth points are required."
Lin Xiao: "...Excuse me."
I originally thought that more than thirty truth points were enough, but it seems that's all.
"You still have to keep working hard..."
With a sigh, he looked at the time and saw that a report he was interested in was about to begin, so he left the hotel.
…
Time soon came to August 9, and this International Congress of Mathematicians was successfully concluded.
Although some ridiculous things happened in this conference, such as the Fields Medal being stolen, it also left every participant feeling unsatisfied. Lin Xiao’s report was not the only one who was surprised at the conference.
, other reporters also brought some novel perspectives, which benefited everyone a lot.
However, Lin Xiao's report is still one of the most influential. Many famous international mathematics forums have begun to discuss Lin's conjecture. It is said that you can search for Lin's conjecture on ArXiv.
Thesis.
However, time slowly passed, and the mathematicians who attended the meeting began to pack their luggage, leave Brazil, and return to their own countries.
Lin Xiao and his party also took a plane back to China.
After returning to China, Lin Xiao was, as expected, welcomed by all kinds of people again, and this time, he could hear even flattery and the like. Even after he returned home from Beijing,
This kind of thing cannot be avoided.
However, as the saying goes, as long as his heart is strong enough, neither criticism nor flattery will affect his nature.
In this way, as time passed slowly, the end of August arrived, and so did the start of school.
