Although everyone is paying attention to Lin Xiao, Xu Ji, Xiao Zhou, and Xiao Shi sitting next to Lin Xiao can also feel what it feels like to be the center of attention.
Fortunately for Xu Ji, he has long been used to being looked at by others, not to mention that these people are not looking at him.
At this time, he was just surprised at Lin Xiao's performance. He was able to do such concentrated research without being affected by anything. As for what Lin Xiao was doing, he looked at it and saw nothing because the notepad was too small.
There was too little content on one page, and he didn’t read the front. Of course, he didn’t know what Lin Xiao wrote.
As for Xiao Zhou and Xiao Shi next to them, they couldn't help but feel a sense of tension when facing the various looks around them.
Although everyone else is looking at Lin Xiao sitting aside, as the person next to him, he sometimes feels psychological pressure.
Especially since there are so many big names gathered here, including six or seven Fields Medal winners.
So in order to reduce their own pressure, the two of them could only pretend that they were watching Lin Xiao's process, but there was another problem. They couldn't understand anything Lin Xiao wrote, which made them want to cry even more.
No more tears.
When they saw Lin Xiao again, he didn't feel the same pressure as they did. On the contrary, he still looked unaffected by anything. They could only say "Awesome" in their hearts.
In this way, the originally good Bourbaki seminar showed a strange scene: hundreds of people in the audience focused their attention on the young man sitting on the left side of the sixth row.
People were talking in low voices, some looked amazed, but the young man looked deep in thought, as if he was in a world of his own and couldn't feel anything around him.
A photographer at the scene thought this scene was very interesting, so he stood at the back right of the hall and took this photo. This photo made him feel as if he had taken the effect of "The Last Supper". Of course, the implication is
Something different, it's a tribute to a mathematical genius.
“Perfect photo.”
The photographer nodded with satisfaction and prepared to collect this photo when he went back.
At this moment, Professor Laurent Laforgue on the stage looked at this situation and did not feel any disrespect for him. On the contrary, a smile appeared on his face.
Lin Xiao had been listening to the lecture before, but he didn't know when he started to think about it. Doesn't this mean that Lin Xiao was inspired after listening to one of his words.
As a speaker, if there is a mathematical result that was born after listening to his lecture, then he will feel honored.
Then, he said: "Since everyone is interested in Lin's research, this lecture will end here. Let us wish Lin to achieve a breakthrough."
When others heard Laurent Laforgue's words, they realized that the lecture by the Philippine Prize boss was not over yet.
Then, everyone wanted to applaud and express their gratitude to Laurent Laforgue for his lecture. However, Laurent Laforgue stretched out his hand to stop them, and then put his index finger in front of his mouth, "Shh, don't disturb me.
Lin, maybe we are witnessing history?"
Everyone had smiles on their faces, and then many people moved forward, wanting to know what Lin Xiao was studying.
Originally, it was possible to leave at this time, but no one left. Mathematicians all wanted to know what it was that was worthy of Lin Xiao's serious study, and the same was true for the students. Moreover, the noise made by Lin Xiao was also
Enough for them to stay.
Among the students here, some come from abroad with their tutors, and more are students from the mathematics department of nearby universities, such as the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris, or the University of Paris VII, and other prestigious French schools.
Among these students, except for a small number who were able to enter university studies under the age of eighteen because of their talent and intelligence, the rest of the students were basically over eighteen years old, and most of them were graduate students.
Therefore, when facing Lin Xiao, a young Chinese man who is obviously the same age as them, or even a few years younger, but has become famous in the mathematics world, they all want to get close to him and understand his thoughts, such as
The student just stood up and asked the question.
But at this moment, Lin Xiao did such a unique thing again, which made them even more admired.
Everyone was talking, and of course they controlled their voices to avoid disturbing Lin Xiao.
As for those seats close to Lin Xiao, they became VIP seats, such as the seats of Xiao Zhou and Xiao Shi. They probably felt that they were too annoying here, so they voluntarily left the place and gave up their seats to others.
Others, on the other hand, looked at Lin Xiao's steps and wanted to see what he was studying.
"Tell me, what is he doing?"
Professor Laforgue walked off the stage and came to the side of Professor Wiles. In several other seats, there were several Fields Medal winners, or Abel Prize winners, Wolf Prize winners, etc.
Ford Prize and other big names in mathematics.
Professor Wiles smiled and said, "I guess it's Goldbach's conjecture."
"I also guess Goldbach's conjecture."
Several other big names in mathematics said.
When Laforgue saw them speaking in unison, he couldn't help asking: "How do you know?"
"That's what Wiles guy just said," said a Crafford Prize winner in mathematics.
Wiles spread his hands: "Lin told me at the party yesterday."
"Goldbach Conjecture?"
Laurent Laforgue's face suddenly showed surprise, "Is he planning to challenge something of this difficulty now?"
"So we all say he is a genius." Wiles smiled.
Laurent Laforgue couldn't help but look at Lin Xiao again. He thought it was some other research before. Even if Lin Xiao had some thoughts on Lin's conjecture, he was not surprised. But now he actually said that Lin Xiao was doing research on it.
Goldbach Conjecture?
"Isn't this...a little incredible?"
"Although it is unbelievable, it is the fact." Wiles smiled: "Let us hope that he can succeed. In that case, the problem that once made us all fail will finally be solved."
Several other professors also nodded.
Goldbach's conjecture has puzzled the mathematical community for hundreds of years. Solving it has become the dream of countless mathematicians. If it can really be solved, it will be a regrettable solution for each of them.
"If he succeeds, I will have to invite him to be a professor in the mathematics department of our Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris." At this time, a professor next to him said.
"It's better to go to our Oxford University." Wiles said.
"For such a genius, I think it would be better to go to MIT with me." Another mathematics professor who flew over from the United States also said.
Immediately, several professors started arguing. If the prover of Goldbach's conjecture could come to their school as a professor, it would obviously attract many young students to join.
However, at this moment, Lin Xiao, who was being watched by everyone, suddenly stopped writing.
