A few days after the "History of Number Theory" was written, Shen Qi received a list and related materials from the department.

There were five names on the list, and Shen Qi reviewed their application materials one by one based on their names.

The owners of the five names are all undergraduate math students who will become graduate students in Princeton's mathematics department in January of next year.

The department asked Shen Qi to choose at least one and two at most among the five people.

These 1~2 people will become the first batch of graduate students of Professor Shen Qi.

Let's take the graduate students with you first and practice your hands.

Shen Qi first locked the target number of 2.

The third condition for promotion to Mathematics Level 14 requires Shen Qi's students to complete mathematics projects independently and publish at least one paper in the four major international mathematics journals.

It's very simple, the more students Shen Qi has, the better, and the tallest of the short ones will always emerge with a student with excellent academic level and strong independent thinking ability.

Shen Qi reviewed the information of the first student, and the photo showed an Asian male face, the surname was written in English, the nationality was Korean, and he studied mathematics at Princeton as an undergraduate.

This Korean student surnamed Kim came to study in the Department of Mathematics of the University after finishing high school, and his grades during his undergraduate years were almost all A's, and he sent two SCIs...... I have to admit that Wang Zitun's undergraduate education is too good, and the academic level of the undergraduate students in the Department of Mathematics here is equivalent to the graduate students of the other seven Ivy League schools. ”

After Shen Qi quickly read the two SCI papers of Korean students surnamed Jin, he lamented that Princeton is a melting pot, where it has undergone four years of transformation, and mediocre talents have become talents, and talents have become geniuses.

"The Korean students put aside and look at other people's profiles. ”

Shen Qi continued to review the information of the remaining four.

The second one, also an undergraduate student from Wang Zitun, is a native of the United States, with excellent grades in various major courses in mathematics, and a high-quality paper was published during his undergraduate years.

Princeton undergraduates, regardless of their major, are required to participate in projects and write essays from their junior year.

The University attaches great importance to undergraduates, and undergraduates have access to high-end laboratory equipment that can only be accessed at the graduate level of other universities.

The third student, a Frenchman, studied in the Department of Mathematics at MIT.

The fourth, an international student, is a Polish, who studied at a Polish university as an undergraduate.

"The fifth, also an international student, Chinese...... Yo, Chinese!" Shen Qi's eyes lit up, very relieved, there are successors to Chinese mathematics, and the Chinese students who can be admitted to the graduate school of the Department of Mathematics of Pu University must be the dragon and phoenix among the people.

The application materials were all in English, and Shen Qi could only guess and read out the Chinese student's name: "Yu-Lei, torpedo?"

"Brother Torpedo is 21 years old this year, and he studied mathematics at Mizuki University as an undergraduate. ”

"He has represented the Chinese Olympic team in the IMO and won the team gold medal and individual gold medal. ”

"Pretty good, torpedo brother, your experience is very similar to mine. ”

Shen Qi is Chinese, and he will return to his motherland in the future to contribute to the country.

During his tenure at the University, he borrowed Princeton's advantageous platform to train a Chinese mathematician.

Shen Qi has a love for talents, and he has decided that Torpedo from Mizuki University will become one of his first graduate students.

"Wait......" Shen Qi found an unusual detail on the torpedo data.

According to the information, torpedo participated in the IMO five years ago, and the IMO was held in London.

"Five years ago, London ...... It's the IMO that Zhou Yu'an and I participated in on behalf of the Chinese Olympiad team!"

Shen Qi was so surprised, this torpedo brother is actually our teammate?

"Torpedo, Yu Lei?" Shen Qi suddenly realized, is the torpedo Yu Lei?

"Looking at the photos, it doesn't look like Yu Lei at all. Shen Qi repeatedly studied the photos on Yu-Lei's profile.

Yu Lei is one year younger than Shen Qi and Zhou Yu'an, and the three of them were selected for the Chinese Olympiad team five years ago, winning the team gold medal on behalf of China, and all three won individual gold medals.

After that, Shen Qi and Zhou Yu were sent to Yan University, and Yu Lei was sent to Shuimu University.

Until now, Shen Qi's memory is still clear.

Yu Lei's little Zhengtai, with small eyes and a round face, is very shy, and he doesn't dare to speak when he sees a living person.

Five years ago, in the Chinese Olympiad training team, Director Liu asked Yu Lei: "Yu Lei, I enclose (ε, ζ) in a circle, and then remove it from the integral area, so when this circle shrinks to (ε, ζ), it can be obtained from the generalized Green's theorem?"

Yu Lei was frightened, he "got it" and trembled, and he didn't come up with a reason for a long time.

Recalling the past, Shen Qi smiled knowingly, he was 17 years old at the time, and Yu Lei was 16 years old.

The memory stays in Shen Qi's sophomore year of high school.

After that, Shen Qi went to college a year earlier than Yu Lei, and Shen Qi stayed at Yan University for two years before coming to the United States to study.

Five years have passed, and Shen Qi and Yu Lei have never met again.

In five years, the teenager was carved into youth.

People will always change, whether it is inside or outside.

Merely......

Yu Lei, this kid has changed too much!

Shen Qi couldn't believe that the 21-year-old Chinese young man in the photo in front of him was Yu Lei.

The Chinese young man in the photo has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a dignified appearance, very handsome, a beautiful man, and a beautiful face in the prosperous world.

"Zhou Yu'an, come to my office. Shen Qi made a phone call to Zhou Yu'an.

Zhou Yu'an arrived at Shen Qi's office half an hour later, with a bunch of materials in his hand, looking very busy.

"Old Zhou, you're very busy. Shen Qi poured Zhou Yu'an a cup of coffee.

"Tell me something. Zhou Yu'an has entered a period of rapid academic growth, and he has recently followed Professor Figari to do big things, which gives him a sense of achievement.

Shen Qi asked: "Do you remember Yu Lei, the little Zhengtai who was selected for the Chinese Olympiad team with us." ”

Zhou Yu'an immediately replied: "Of course I remember, in the IMO in London, Yu Lei scored 30 points, I scored 32 points, you are the most hanging, 42+1 points." After so many years, in fact, it doesn't matter how many points the IMO got back then, anyway, we are all gold medals. ”

Shen Qi handed Lei Lei's information to Zhou Yu'an: "Take a look, is this person in the photo Yu Lei?"

Zhou Yu'an glanced at it and immediately said: "No, by no means! Yu Lei can't be so handsome! Back then, there were more than 20 people in our Olympiad training team, and the ugliest one was Yu Lei." ”

"But the information shows that he is indeed Yu Lei, he participated in the London IMO with us and won the gold medal, and then sent to the Shuimu Department of Mathematics, there is no such coincidence in the world, there are only six official members of our Olympiad team. Shen Qi speaks with data.

With a critical eye, Zhou Yu'an repeatedly reviewed Yu Lei's photos and materials, and finally came to the conclusion: "If he is Yu Lei, then the photo is P's, or plastic surgery was performed." ”

Shen Qi asked: "I left Yan University very early, you stayed in China for two more years, did you see Yu Lei when you were in college?"

Zhou Yu'an shook his head: "You also know, Yanda and Shuimu are separated by a street, but the two families don't move around often, and after our Olympiad team was disbanded, I never saw Yu Lei again." ”

"No matter how much, I'll choose him as my graduate student. Shen Qi put away Yu-Lei's information, like a treasure.

"Huh?" Zhou Yu'an understood what the situation was, he said: "We are teammates of the Olympiad team, we have fought for the honor of the motherland together, and we have won the IMO team gold medal together. Shen Qi, now that you are a professor, but Yu Lei is your student, will this cause psychological discomfort to Lei?
