When Chen Zhou saw the latest issue of the journal, it was in Dean Sun's office.

Although he had heard such things from Professor Faltings and others, he did not expect that it would be published directly in the Annals of Mathematics as a reviewer's evaluation.

Moreover, the reviewers' comments in this line are followed by the simultaneous signatures of three professors, Faltins, Deligne, and Langlands.

This honor is not insignificant.

It can be said that Chen Zhou's distribution deconstruction method has been recognized by the top leaders in the mathematics field.

At this point, it is not far from the recognition of the entire mathematical community.

The birth of a new theory often goes through a period of pain.

Because the mathematical community is open, it is also conservative.

The construction of the whole mathematical edifice is the accumulation of countless years, and the birth of a new theory is based on the whole edifice.

This is like a foundation, if there is a problem with the foundation, the building above the foundation is very likely to collapse.

"Any ideas?" Dean Sun looked at Chen Zhou, who was stunned, and asked softly.

Chen Zhou came back to his senses and barely squeezed out a smile: "It's okay, but I didn't expect such a high evaluation, and I didn't expect it to be so formal." ”

What Chen Zhou said was from his heart, if it was just an ordinary communication, and others praised him like this, then he might not mind.

But if you publish directly in a journal, the meaning is completely different.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of his identity, he is just a college student who has not yet graduated from college.

While he welcomes the honor, he must also bear the corresponding responsibility.

This responsibility contains too many meanings.

Dean Sun said with appreciation: "A person's growth is often shared with honor and disgrace, and how much honor a person can bear, he will inevitably be able to bear the corresponding responsibility." Whether this responsibility is not recognized or abusive, it needs to be borne. ”

Chen Zhou didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

After all, he is just an adult college student now.

Maybe he's not ready yet.

But from this moment on, he had to be prepared.

Dean Sun looked at Chen Zhou, who was silent, and said with a smile: "You still have a lot of room for growth, and you will slowly get used to these things." ”

Chen Zhou nodded again and said truthfully: "Dean Sun, I understand all this, maybe I'm not ready yet." ”

Dean Sun thought for a while and said, "If you are not in your position, you are not in your own position, and now you have reached a certain height, and the angle of considering things is different." ”

Chen Zhou was silent and did not speak.

What Dean Sun said was the actual situation, not his position and his own politics.

But now he can be said to be an eye-catching new star in the mathematical world.

He needs to think about more than just research.

In the past, Chen Zhou never thought that he could grow to the point where he is now.

Silent, Chen Zhou probably knew what Dean Sun meant.

For future plans, Chen Zhou also roughly has his own plans.

Perhaps, this is the inevitability of growth and change.

Dean Sun, who had been paying attention to Chen Zhou's expression, knew that this kid had figured it out the moment he saw Chen Zhou's expression relaxed.

Immediately, Dean Sun said: "We intend to recommend you to participate in the National 'Ten Thousand Talents Program' Young Top-notch Talent Program. This is a sub-project of the national 'Ten Thousand Talents Program', and it will also be of great help to your future development. ”

Chen Zhou was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Dean Sun to come to him, mainly for this matter.

The national "Ten Thousand Talents Program", Chen Zhou has heard of it.

The full name of the national "Ten Thousand Talents Program" is the "National High-level Talent Special Support Program", which includes three levels: the Outstanding Talent Program, the Leading Talent Program and the Youth Top-notch Talent Program, which is a support plan for domestic high-level talents.

Among them, the young top-notch talents refer to the 2,000 young talents under the age of 35 who have particularly excellent potential for scientific research and technological innovation and have important innovation prospects for scientific research.

Chen Zhou does fit this one.

With the proof of the Hail conjecture and the proof of the Kramer conjecture alone, he was enough to compete for a place in this plan.

Even if it is a program that supports 100 talents who are at the forefront of the world's science and technology, have made major discoveries in scientific research, and have the potential to grow into world-class scientists, Chen Zhou is enough to compete.

But Chen Zhou thought more about it at this time.

After being reminded by Dean Sun, the level of his consideration of things has been broadened.

If it is said that Chen Zhou has been staying in China and developing step by step.

The national "Ten Thousand Talents Program" young top-notch talents, he can indeed be included in the scope of consideration.

However, in the domestic academic atmosphere, research environment, and under the condition of seniority, this plan can be said to be dispensable.

If he does not have the ability to achieve high-level research, Chen Zhou needs to "get out of the way".

Moreover, Chen Zhou thinks more about natural sciences and applied sciences, including linguistics, which may appear in the future, which he needs to consider.

He prefers that he can jump out on his own and not be constrained by the domestic environment.

But this step is easier said than done.

After pondering for a while, Chen Zhou politely declined: "Dean Sun, I think I'm still in college now, is it too early to participate in the national 'Ten Thousand Talents Program'?"

Dean Sun looked at Chen Zhou in surprise, this is a great thing, he didn't expect Chen Zhou to refuse so simply.

Chen Zhou looked at Dean Sun and continued: "Dean Sun, I personally feel that we should be successful in our studies in order to serve the motherland. Before that, it doesn't really make much sense to talk about this. ”

Hearing this, Dean Sun stared at Chen Zhou closely, and he wanted to see the change in the expression on Chen Zhou's face.

But it's a pity that Chen Zhou has a frank face.

Dean Sun couldn't help but smile and said, "What you kid thinks, I can probably guess." But I believe in your ability to silence all doubts. ”

Chen Zhou smiled and said, "Dean, you have a good reputation. ”

Dean Sun raised his finger and pointed at Chen Zhou, and then said, "No matter what you think, I still have to mention this recommendation, otherwise it will be my dereliction of duty." As for your future plans, just follow your own ideas. ”

Chen Zhou immediately said, "Thank you Dean for your understanding." ”

Dean Sun shook his head slightly, and said with some emotion: "We have always advocated talents, but the starting point of talents is still young people after all. ”

Chen Zhou listened silently and did not speak.

But he understood what Dean Sun meant, which was also the reason why Yan Da was criticized.

It is also the question mentioned at the last award ceremony, why can't young talents be retained?

After a pause, Dean Sun's expression was slightly excited: "We, Yanda, are waiting for you, and Huaguo is also waiting for you, to get back a piece of the Fields Medal that belongs to Huaguo!"
