Chapter 290 Academic Exchange Meeting
There were a lot of people sitting in the room, with professors or associate professors in the front row, as well as some mathematics teachers, and people from the Department of Mathematics at Tokyo University in the back.
Of course, in addition to the teachers and students of the University of Tokyo, there are also some mathematics professors and students from Korea, Yangkook, and Europe.
When Xiao Yang and Xu Wenwen came to the door, something was being debated in the venue.
Obviously, these people are working on some problems in the field of mathematics.
Anyway, Xu Wenwen couldn't understand it, so he simply smoked at the door and waited.
Xiao Yang doesn't smoke, so he can only stand at the door.
He consumed popularity, flipped through encyclopedias, and countless mathematical knowledge kept pouring into his mind.
After consuming millions of popularity points, Xiao Yang finally heard what those people inside were saying.
They were working on a method of proving a conjecture.
There are two methods of proof given by Huaxia, and other countries have also given methods of proof.
Now, they're figuring out who's more scientific and succinct.
Xu Wenwen saw that Xiao Yang was watching with relish, and couldn't help but be happy, "Do you understand?"
Xiao Yang smiled, "I understand a little." ”
Xu Wenwen couldn't help laughing, he thought Xiao Yang was bragging, your history is very powerful, but this is mathematics, and it is a difficult mathematics that only a professor can understand.
Even though he didn't know math, he knew the weight of those inside.
Those are the giants of mathematics.
At this moment, there was a sudden violent argument inside.
"I'm sorry, with all due respect, you Chinese people don't know what mathematics is. A European said with contempt on his face.
"Do you know math?" said one of the professors at the University of Tokyo, with a furious face.
"In the past 100 years, how many theorems, how many conjectures, and how many branches of mathematics have been established by us Europeans?" the European sneered in English, "What are your Chinese achievements in mathematics? As long as you can name one, I will admit that you know mathematics." ”
"I applaud what Mr. Patton said. The Yangguo people stood up and said in English, "Who are the mathematicians of the Chinese people? How come I have never heard of them?"
"Yes, we've never heard of it. The Koreans said, "In my opinion, there is only one Chinese mathematician who can be called a mathematician." ”
"Hehe, it's a pity that that person's achievements are not too high, if he is ranked in the world, it is difficult for him to rank in the top 100. The Europeans were full of ridicule, "The Chinese people do not have the cells to study mathematics, they only know what Confucian culture is, and they only know what three obedience and four virtues are." ”
The latter sentence was said in a broken Chinese language.
"Who says we don't have mathematicians who can do it?" an intellectual beauty in her thirties got up.
"That's my wife. ”
Xu Wenwen at the door said to Xiao Yang, and it could be seen that he was a little worried about his wife.
Xu Wenwen's wife said coldly: "Is it because of luck that our Huaxia can achieve today's achievements that have attracted worldwide attention?"
The Europeans scoffed, "The welfare of the population, the cheap labor and the crude manufacturing industry, are you what you call the world's remarkable achievements?"
The Koreans said contemptuously, "We have three stars, science and technology, the best mobile phones in the world, and ...... Can you produce chips?"
Yang Guo mocked, "We have the most advanced automobile manufacturing industry, the most advanced electronic technology. ”
Xu Wenwen's wife's face sank, these are Huaxia's shortcomings.
The students of the University of Tokyo were indignant and furious, but they were equally unable to refute it.
Those professors at the University of Tokyo were silent, and they were indeed lagging behind a lot in the high-tech sector.
Xu Wenwen's wife said coldly: "We have manned spaceflight!"
The faces of the Goryeo and Yangguo people changed slightly, which is indeed one of the strengths of Huaxia.
The European scoffed, "In your Chinese words, this is called picking up people's teeth and wisdom, and those technologies have long been there." ”
Without waiting for the people of the University to speak, he continued: "I have come to China this time, and I have brought with me the conjecture of Mr. George, the greatest mathematician of Great Britain, and if you can prove this conjecture, I will admit that the Chinese people do understand mathematics." ”
Xu Wenwen's wife sneered, "It's not up to you whether we understand or not." ”
The European's face was full of ridicule, "It seems that you Chinese people are really cowards, and you don't have the courage to be challenged." ”
His words immediately stimulated the students and some young teachers of the University.
"I'm coming!"
"I'm coming!"
"Me!"
......
Countless people got up and wanted to prove it to this foreigner.
The scene is out of control.
The European chuckled: "Don't worry, you can come together." ”
Glancing at the teachers and students of the University, he scoffed, "Anyway, there is no way that any of you will be able to prove it." ”
It's not that he's proud, it's that he has this self-confidence.
No one in Europe has been able to prove this conjecture.
At least for a hundred years, it is probably impossible for anyone to prove it.
The teachers and students of the University of Tokyo were stimulated again, and this foreigner was too unsightly!
The representative of Yangguo said: "Even the mathematicians of our Yangguo can't prove it, and neither can the Chinese people."
They have proven it beforehand.
Even they admit that they can't prove it, so it's really hard to prove.
The faces of many old professors in the audience suddenly became solemn.
The foreigner had already made people write their conjectures on the blackboard.
To put it simply, this conjecture is that in a bounded three-dimensional space, every closed curve in this space can be continuously contracted into a point, or in a closed three-dimensional space, if each closed curve can be contracted into a point, then the space must be a three-dimensional sphere.
When the teachers and students of the University of Tokyo saw this conjecture, they all changed color.
The professors' brows furrowed.
Silent.
Dead.
The foreigner smiled and said, "Who came up to prove it?"
No one spoke.
The foreigner smiled: "Don't worry, we will stay in the East China Sea for half a month, you can think about it for half a month." However, I suggest that you invite all the people in China who have studied mathematics to come and have a look. ”
He was humiliating the students of the University of Tokyo, and he was also humiliating the entire Chinese mathematics community.
Xu Wenwen's wife gritted her teeth, "I'll try." ”
Before the crowd could speak, she had already gone up.
She was writing and drawing on the blackboard, but it wasn't long before her chalk-holding hand was hanging above the blackboard, unable to continue.
"This lady has a lot of courage, but unfortunately her math skills are average. The foreigner smiled lightly.
Xu's wife was trembling.
At the door, Xu Wenwen's face was full of anger.
Xiao Yang pressed his shoulder, "Don't be impulsive. ”
"These bastards!" Xu Wen scolded.
"I'll go in and have a look. Xiao Yang said.
Xu Wenwen was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing in there?"
There's a bunch of mathematicians in the house, what are you going to do? Host? Don't be funny.
