Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan exchanged glances with each other.

The two applauded Chen Zhou's courage from the bottom of their hearts.

But applause is applause, surprise is surprise.

The reality is that Chen Zhou will not be allowed to do this.

Because, Chen Zhou alone can't jump up.

But Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan were also unwilling, which dispelled Chen Zhou's enthusiasm.

Therefore, Wu Xiping said first: "Since you think so, then let me ask you, have you decided which journal in China to submit your manuscript to?"

"Nope. Chen Zhou shook his head, "That's why I came to you, you must know which journal in China is suitable." ”

Wu Xiping did not answer directly, but Zhang Zhongyuan said loudly: "Domestic journals are either sponsored by the Huaguo Academy of Sciences, or major universities, such as Yan University, which also have their own journals. But ......"

Speaking of which, however, Zhang Zhongyuan paused and did not continue.

Chen Zhou subconsciously asked, "But what?"

Wu Xiping continued: "However, whether it is the Huaguo Academy of Sciences or Yan University, these universities are not as good as Princeton University and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study. Not to mention the gap with the Annals of Mathematics. ”

Zhang Zhongyuan also said: "Chen Zhou, your idea is good, and I hope to help domestic journals improve their international status with the help of world-famous mathematical conjectures such as the Jebov conjecture." But have you thought about the operability of this idea?"

Hearing Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan's words, Chen Zhou fell silent.

In his mind, he kept thinking about the meaning of the words of the two.

As Chen Zhou fell into deep thought, the office also fell silent for a while.

Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan were both waiting for Chen Zhou's answer.

In fact, from the bottom of their hearts, they also hope that Chen Zhou can break this barrier.

Bring domestic academic journals to a new level.

This is absolutely beneficial to domestic academic research.

But this matter is far from being as simple as Chen Zhou thought.

Nor can it be achieved with a single paper on proving the Jebov conjecture.

Although the Jebov conjecture is a world-class mathematical problem.

After a while, Chen Zhou raised his head and looked at Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan.

He had already figured it out, and it was indeed too simple for him to think of it himself.

"Professor Wu, Professor Zhang, I really want to be simple. Chen Zhou said sincerely, "I originally wanted to rely on the impact of this competition with Tao Zhexuan, Zhang Yitang, and the two professors. ”

"Add to that the influence of the Jebov conjecture itself, and the continuous impact of my own time. to add enough attention to the matter of submitting articles to journals. ”

"But I have neglected the essence of academic journals, which is the most important attribute. After all, academic journals are only things that belong to the academic circle, and the most important and the biggest reliance is academic resources. Rather than these forcibly increasing attention. ”

Chen Zhou said unhurriedly, Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan listened and listened, and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Fortunately, this kid is just a tendon in academic research.

In this kind of common cognition, it is still flexible.

Chen Zhou also noticed the change in Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan's expressions, he raised his eyebrows lightly, and continued: "Another point is that I overestimate my influence a little. To be precise, it is to overestimate one's own abilities. ”

Hearing Chen Zhou's words, Wu Xiping asked softly, "Why do you say that?"

The corners of Chen Zhou's mouth showed a hint of self-deprecation: "Whether it is the hail conjecture, or the Clamel conjecture, or the current Jebov conjecture, I have solved it quite smoothly." In fact, it only took about a year to solve three world-class problems......"

Wu Xiping: "......"

Zhang Zhongyuan: "......"

The two of them really don't think that these words can match their expressions, and the more they listen to this, the more they feel that they are pretending to be forced?

Chen Zhou didn't care about Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan's expressions this time, he continued to take care of himself: "But these achievements also blinded my eyes and made me a little fluttery. ”

"I feel like I'm going to keep attacking these challenges and become a steady contributor when the time comes. It has always been able to help the development of domestic journals. ”

"But I missed an extremely important point......

Chen Zhou paused, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and then said, "With my personal ability and prestige, it is difficult to fight against such a behemoth as Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. ”

"If you want to build an international journal like the Annals of Mathematics, you can't talk about it. ”

After the reminders of Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan just now, Chen Zhou's perception of himself has now become very clear.

Even if he was reported by the domestic media, by the official media as a "banner of young talents".

But he wanted to use this to gain some practical help, but he was still a little whimsical.

This factor is multifaceted.

So, he has to grow into a real one, like Professor Deligne, or Professor Faltins, this kind of real bigwig.

It is possible to change these and achieve their own ideas.

Wu Xiping glanced at Chen Zhou, his face full of relief.

"You can think so," he said. You're only 19 years old, you still have a lot of time, and there are so many more things you can do. There is no need to rush this at all. ”

"The most important thing for you now is your own development. The ancients said that if you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world. Although you can't be considered 'poor' now, you are far from reaching the state of 'reaching'. Do you understand?"

Chen Zhou nodded: "I understand, Professor Wu, thank you!"

Wu Xiping smiled with satisfaction.

Zhang Zhongyuan joked with a smile at this time: "You kid, if you can maintain your current efficiency, kill three mathematical conjectures a year, and at the same time take care of chemistry and physics, it is not that you can't submit to domestic journals." ”

When Wu Xiping heard this, he immediately helped Chen Zhou and said, "Don't talk about Chen Zhou, can you?

Zhang Zhongzhi said: "I said Chen Zhou, don't pull me, this is going to put me back then, I will definitely ......"

Before Zhang Zhongyuan finished speaking, Chen Zhou interrupted with a smile on the side: "I can try." ”

Chen Zhou's words instantly attracted the attention of Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan.

What does this mean?

Can you try it?

That is, three mathematical conjectures a year?

I'm going to make up, now, the golden rooster that lays golden eggs, isn't it all going to be smacked?

Wait, why should he say that we have to believe?

But what Chen Zhou, this kid said, it seems that there is nothing that can't be realized?

Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan's expressions were extremely exciting.

Chen Zhou, who was watching on the side, had been trying to hold back his smile.
