Chapter 288: The Year of the Fei Award

After some discussion with the academicians of the Yan University Academy of Mathematics, Shen Qi still had a harvest.

The next activities will be organized by the Chinese Mathematical Society, and the activities arranged by the Chinese Mathematical Society are the same as the old: awards, speeches, and academic seminars.

The Chinese Mathematical Society has three major brand awards, Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award, Chern Shiingshen Mathematics Award, and Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, that is, the three major awards of Chinese mathematics.

The Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award is awarded to Chinese mathematicians over the age of 50 and is a lifetime achievement award.

The Chern Prize in Mathematics was awarded to a young Chinese mathematician, and Shen Qi had already received the prize.

The Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award is awarded to graduate students and doctoral students who are currently studying or have just graduated, and the evaluation criteria are the level of mathematics papers.

Calculating the combat power and achievement value in recent years, no one in the level of writing papers of Chinese graduate students and doctoral students can compare with Shen Qi.

In principle, the winner of the Chung Ka Ching Prize in Mathematics must be enrolled in a university in China. Shen Qi studied mathematics at Yan University and received his Ph.D. from Princeton, and was nominated for the "Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Gold Award" by the Chinese Mathematical Society for his four papers published in four major mathematics journals in the last two years, as well as the proof of the Riemann conjecture.

At the award ceremony of the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, Shen Qi won the gold medal without dispute.

Although Shen Qi studied in American universities for graduate and doctoral studies, this is no longer a problem, no one picks a bone in the egg, and the "Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Gold Award" was forcibly assigned to Shen Qi.

According to the media, Shen Qi has been qualified to give a 45-minute presentation at the International Congress of Mathematicians in October this year, and with the proof of the Riemann conjecture, Shen Qi has some hope of competing for this year's Fields Medal.

Once Shen Qi won the Fei Prize, other mathematics awards were not very attractive to him.

stayed up until he was fifty years old, won the Wolf Prize, the Abel Prize, and won the "Mathematics Grand Slam", and Shen Qi was like this in his life.

Therefore, before the award of the Philippine Prize, various mathematical organizations were very enthusiastic about giving Shen Qi awards, if you don't give Shen Qi awards now, Shen Qi may not look down on him in the future.

At the award ceremony of the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, Shen Qi held the gold cup in his hand and delivered a brief acceptance speech: "I would like to thank the Chinese Mathematical Society for affirming me, thank Yan University for cultivating me, and thank the motherland for its trust in me. I will continue to work hard, thank you. ”

The system prompts: "New achievement!" The host won the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Gold Award, and the basic reward is 350,000 Xueba points, multiplied by the mathematics main talent coefficient of 2.0, and the final reward amount is 700,000 Xueba points. The balance 7377510 points for Xueba, please confirm with the host. ”

"Advancement to Mathematics Grade 14 Conditional Progress:

Condition 1, 20/20 million, progress 0.0001%.

Condition 2: The number of mathematics awards with grade A (inclusive) or above is 0, and there are five mathematics awards at grade B, including the Chern-Sing Mathematics Award, the Chung Jiaqing Mathematics Award, the Ford Prize, the Scientific Breakthrough Award, and the Clay Research Prize. Progress 0%.

Condition 3: No students have published papers in the four major journals, and the progress is 0%. ”

The progress of condition one can be smashed to 37% immediately, but it is useless for Shen Qi to smash it now, the three conditions must be established at the same time before he can be upgraded to the "almost invincible" mathematics level 14.

As the International Congress of Mathematicians in October approaches, the quadrennial Fields Medal has become the hottest topic in the mathematics community at home and abroad.

Since the first Filipino Awards in 1936, IMU has never disclosed the internal selection details of the previous Filipino Awards.

There are only three public sources of information about the Philippine Prize:

1. A maximum of four Philippine Awards will be awarded in each session;

2. Each laureate must be under the age of 40 (with the sole exception of Andrew Wiles)

3. The laureates have made significant contributions to mathematics.

Except for the above three public information, which have been officially recognized by the IMU, the others are all rumors.

For example, if you want to win the Filipino Award, you should first win the Ramanujan Award.

Mathematicians who were invited by the IMU to give a one-hour report at the International Congress of Mathematicians are the most likely to win this year's Philippine Prize.

Before this International Congress of Mathematicians, you must have been a speaker for at least 15 minutes at the previous or last conference to be eligible to compete for this year's Philippine Prize, and so on.

At the International Congress of Mathematicians four years ago, Shen Qi had just entered his freshman year, and he was a small transparent in the mathematical community, and it was impossible for IMU to invite a freshman to participate in the International Congress of Mathematicians.

According to IMU's official announcement and rumors, Shen Qi meets some of the necessary conditions to compete for the Philippine Award, and if he can't win the Philippine Award this year, the only reason is that Shen Qi's qualifications are limited.

Including Shen Qi, four Chinese mathematicians under the age of 40 have been qualified to give 45-minute presentations at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

Gong Changwei graduated from the Department of Mathematics of Yan University with a bachelor's degree and is currently a professor at Columbia University, majoring in number theory.

Yun Wei graduated from the Department of Mathematics of Yan University with a bachelor's degree and a Ph.D. from Princeton, and is currently a professor at Yale, specializing in algebraic geometry.

Yang Xu studied in the Department of Mathematics of Yan University and graduated from Princeton with a Ph.D. degree. Like Yun Wei, Professor Xu Yang also focuses on the most popular algebraic geometry direction.

Shen Qi studied at Yan University as an undergraduate, studied at General University with a master's degree and a Ph.D. from Princeton, and just got a PhD from Princeton, he claimed to be majoring in mathematical physics and auxiliary research in algebraic geometry, but he relied on his "hobby" number theory and Riemann conjecture to make a name for himself in the mathematical world.

The above four talents of the Yan University School of Mathematics have almost supported half of China's young mathematicians.

Starting from the far-sighted strategic needs, the relevant departments have used all available resources to build momentum for the four talents of Yan University, hoping that one or even two of the four can get their hands on this year's Philippine Award.

The four talents of Yan University have won four places in this year's Philippine Awards?

Sober up, it's impossible.

Even Yun Wei and Xu Yang have a competitive relationship, their research fields are highly similar, and it is difficult to win both awards in one Philippine Awards.

Among the four talents, Shen Qi is the youngest and has the least qualifications.

But Shen Qi has the highest expectations from the Chinese people, after all, he is the one who proved the millennial problem Riemann conjecture, and he is popular.

If you don't have enough qualifications, build momentum to make up.

After receiving the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, Shen Qi was interviewed by CCTV Science and Education and CCTV English Channel.

The CCTV Science and Education Channel is disseminated to the domestic masses, and the audience of the CCTV English Channel is the people of English-speaking countries all over the world.

There are not many influential Chinese media outlets in the world, only the English-language channel of CCTV and a few other foreign-language channels, as well as the English-language edition of China Daily.

In the upper echelons of the West and among the people, the most influential are the mainstream media in Europe and the United States.

IMU is headquartered in Germany, more than 70% of their members are European and American, most of the review experts they hire are European and American mathematicians, and the mainstream media in Europe and the United States have a certain influence on IMU.

Shen Qi has been interviewed by mainstream media such as CNN and Discovery in the United States, and of course the Chinese mainstream media needs to contribute, after all, Shen Qi is a Chinese mathematician.

The interviews on CCTV's English channel are all in English, and the foreign journalists they hire have worked for the BBC.

All in all, it's a bit weird, Shen Qi has to speak English throughout the interview with China TV.

He also knew that this was to meet the needs of global publicity, so he cooperated with the English interview of CCTV's English channel.

It is unrealistic to expect a Riemann conjecture to allow people all over the world to learn Chinese and worship Chinese as the world's first language.

"I don't speak English very well, so hopefully one day I can do any interview in my native language and attend any event, which is one of my wishes. Shen Qi said in an interview.

"Then you need to solve the remaining five millennial problems, I think the IMU will definitely adjust Chinese as the first conference language." A foreign reporter from CCTV's English channel said that he asked Shen Qi: "Dr. Shen, you have won two of the three major mathematics awards in China, and three important international mathematics awards." According to relevant media, you have been nominated for this year's Ramanujan Award, and it seems that your status in the eyes of the IMU continues to improve. We all know the rules of the game, what it means to nominate Ramanujan a few months before the Philippines. ”

"Ramanujan Award? According to relevant media, which media revealed it, why don't I know?" Shen Qi was puzzled, and was forcibly awarded again? This time, an international organization is building momentum?
