"Yes, I need some new passions, like math physics or algebraic geometry. ”

The Riemann conjecture was much more difficult than he imagined, and Shen Qi felt that he needed to return to the right path for the time being, after all, mathematical physics and algebraic geometry were the first two directions he chose, and number theory was just a hobby, not a main business.

However, Shen Qi wrote two papers related to number theory and submitted them to two of the four major mathematics journals, but his main business did not make any achievements, which made Shen Qi feel ashamed of his professionalism and original intention.

Jonas smiled helplessly: "Volvo has been acquired by you Chinese, the next one may be IKEA, if the Chinese are as crazy as you." ”

"Acquiring this kind of application-oriented field is outside the scope of my research. Shen Qi shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and said.

"During the day your body and brain belong to math, and at night, it belongs to you. So please forget about math tonight, dance and relax. Jonas said.

"Dancing?"

"Your dance partner is waiting for you. Jonas pointed in the direction of the pool table.

There were several young girls, white-skinned, black-skinned, yellow-skinned, and red-skinned together, reflecting the prosperity and harmony of the great unity of the people of the world.

"Shen Qi, you need girls, yes, energetic girls. Go and dance, invite one of them. I don't think you've ever danced, but that's not okay. At Princeton, dance is just as important as academics. Jonas raised his glass and smiled gracefully at the group of girls.

The girls are still laughing, waiting for the invitation of the handsome guys.

Among them, the white-skinned girl and the red-skinned girl locked onto Jonas, and the eyes of ** said it all.

The dark-skinned and yellow-skinned girls were more curious about Shen Qi, and their fingers rubbed lightly on the wine glasses, as if to hint at something.

The conditions for membership of the Tiger Hotel Catering Club are that students must have been students and have stayed at the University for more than two years.

A student has been studying and living at the University for more than two years and has basically met the legal drinking age under U.S. law.

Tiger Hotel is a social place, how can you make friends without drinking?

Several female students at the billiard table are obviously veterans, not newcomers to the university.

"But I can't dance. Shen Qi said excitedly.

"Then you should learn to dance more, right now, do you need me to teach you?" Jonas gentlemanly stretched out his right palm and made a gesture to invite Shen Qi to dance.

"No, thank you. Shen Qi got up and left the bar and walked towards the billiard table.

At the billiard table, the black girl said to the yellow girl, "This handsome guy with an oriental face, is it yours or mine?"

"Of course it's mine. The yellow girl said as a matter of course.

Black girl: "Well, have a nice night." ”

The yellow girl with chestnut dyed hair drank the wine in one gulp: "So-hot!"

It was too hot, and the yellow girl took off her little coat and was fitted with a black camisole as her fingers swiped back and forth on the stage, waiting for the man's invitation.

Shen Qi passed by the billiard table and did not stop, and continued to walk towards the corner.

Shen Qi didn't invite any of the girls, he came to a double table in the corner and sat down.

"This ......" The yellow girl felt lost and angry, why is this guy like this, you will show me this when I take off my clothes?

The light in this corner is dim, and the owner of the table is curled up in the corner drinking alone.

"Mary, are you celebrating something, or are you borrowing wine to kill your sorrows?" Shen Qi asked, Mary was drinking at this table, and Shen Qi found Mary hidden in the dark.

Mary looked up, her eyes hazy, "What is there to celebrate?"

"That is to drink to kill sorrows. Shen Qi saw that only a third of a bottle of Jack Daniel's remained, and the second detail was that the wedding ring on Mary's finger was missing.

"Dancing or drinking...... You pick one...... Or both. Mary, flushed, unbuttoned the second button of her slim white shirt, and she was wearing a bra today with green trim.

"You've drunk too much. Shen Qi said, neither dancing nor drinking.

"None...... The boring man ...... Mary lay on the table, and then she didn't speak, and she fainted.

Jonas asked the waiter to carry Mary to the bar lounge, and Shen Qi returned to the accommodation apartment, charged his phone, and turned it on.

"It's so hard for you to hide it from me!"

This is a letter from Ou Ye> Shen Qi replied: "Are you in class or self-study?"

Soon, Ou Ye called from a cross-ocean checker: "It's more than two o'clock in the morning over there in the United States, right?"

"Yes, how is your health lately?" asked Shen Qi.

Ouye: "It's good. ”

Shen Qi: "Ready to take the TOEFL?"

"At the end of this month. Also, did you submit a paper to JAMS?" Oye asked.

JAMS stands for Journal of the American Mathematical Society, and Shen Qi said: "Yes, it's the one we signed together. ”

Ou Ye: "You don't tell me, I listened to Professor Sun." ”

"Isn't this still untried? I want to surprise you...... Yawn......" Shen Qi yawned, too sleepy.

Ouye: "Rest early, good night, don't work too hard!"

The next morning, Shen Qi received feedback from the Journal of the American Mathematical Society that the paper "Proof of the Walsh Conjecture of the Diophantine Equation" needed minor revision.

"Great!" Shen Qi rubbed his hands excitedly, which meant that he was about to have a paper in one of the four major journals.

Shen Qi immediately made minor changes according to the experts' opinions, and the amount of changes was not large, and it was completed in one morning, and then uploaded the final version of the paper to the submission system of the Journal of the American Mathematical Society.

In the afternoon, Shen Qi went to Lutheran Hall to listen to a class, algebra and geometry.

There are more than a dozen students in the classroom, waiting for the instructor to arrive.

At two o'clock sharp, a man with glasses entered the classroom with a thick book "String Theory" in his hand.

The professor has a natural sense of intelligence, and he looks a bit like the American actor Bob Gunton, the actor who played the warden in "The Shawshank Redemption."

"Mr. Witten, you're in the wrong space, it's three-dimensional!" the students snapped up in surprise and surprise.

Professor Edward Witten stepped up to the podium: "Three dimensions is three dimensions, now the class begins." By the way, Professor Smith has something to do temporarily, and I'll be in charge of this class. ”

This was the first time Shen Qi had met Edward Witten in reality, and he had wanted to choose Witten as his mentor, but Witten did not accept him as a disciple.

As the only legendary figure to win a Fields Medal as a physicist, Witten has his own unique style, bringing a copy of String Theory with him to teach his students math lessons: "I don't actually know math, and if I make a mistake during a lecture, you can interrupt me at any time." ”
