It's about a three-hour drive to New York University.

Xu Mang sat in the back seat of a car, and from the moment he got into the car, he was a little drowsy, because last night, he was harassed by the domestic media enough, and there were strange problems, and finally had to ... Shutdown treatment.

"Academician Xu?"

"Is there a friend of yours at NYU?" a staff member sat in the front row and asked curiously, "I originally planned to travel without NYU, but suddenly there was an increase... I'm afraid your old friend is there. ”

"Huh?"

"Hmm... My wife's sister works there as a professor of mathematics. Xu Mang said lightly: "Chinese-Americans... There shouldn't be any problem with that, right? You don't need to report it, right? Who doesn't have one or two relatives abroad. ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"It's normal, it's normal. The staff member smiled awkwardly, about this... In fact, it is also normal, but there are some abnormalities in Xu Mang's body, but it is not a big deal, basically turning a blind eye to the past, and Academician Xu's character is absolutely trustworthy, his experience and height are unable to do certain things.

For a long time,

Xu Mang went to New York University, this is the second time he has come to this university, at this moment he is standing in a square, New York University is a university without a campus, teaching buildings are scattered in various neighborhoods of New York, two hundred years... I bought a lot of buildings and hung the purple flag of NYU.

In fact

In New York University, Xiao Man's prestige is much higher than Xu Man's, because the Stern School of Business is a world-renowned business school, very close to Wall Street, and it has outstanding academic achievements in the fields of economics, business, and management.

And Xiao Man once completed the most beautiful battle in her life in that stock turmoil, so that her name appeared in the mouths of various professors, and her outstanding behavior in that battle was also named the most successful case in history, with an irreproducible legendary reputation.

In addition to the business school, of course, the Courant Institute for Mathematical Sciences is the ace department of New York University, which is considered one of the most famous and prestigious institutes of applied mathematics in the world, and its name comes from its founder, the famous mathematician Richard Courant.

Ranked No. 1 in the United States for years in applied mathematics, Courant is also known for its extensive research in pure mathematics, such as partial differential equations, probability theory, geometry, and other areas of applied mathematics, as well as computational neurology and financial mathematics.

My cousin is a very famous professor in the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, and has won many mathematics awards, but only some heavyweight awards are missing. There is a big gap in the status of various fields.

Xu Mang completely dominates the field of physics and is known as the god of contemporary physics, while his cousin can only be a little famous in New York University, in the field of mathematics... Her name is not very loud.

Wearing a hat and sunglasses,

Xu Mang walked down the street... Because there is no such thing as a campus, there are a lot of tourists here in addition to students, and there are many international students at NYU, most of whom are studying at NYU SPS College.

For the SPS School of New York University, Xu Mang did not have an in-depth understanding, only knew that the threshold of this college is quite low, and the professional design is biased towards the finance, marketing, management and other directions loved by Chinese students.

Wandering around,

Xu Mang's stomach was hungry, so he found a random restaurant on the street, bought a hot dog set meal and began to eat, and the restaurant was full of some students, three or five people gathered together, not knowing what they were doing, maybe they were learning about academic problems, or they were simply chatting.

"I think Professor Klaas at Cornell University is a little too much. A certain Chinese girl behind Xu Mang frowned and said angrily: "He actually publicly insulted Professor Tong on Twitter, is this guy having a problem with his brain?"

"I saw it too!"

"What do you say Professor Tong is incompetent, our school can't send a decent math expert, who does he think he is? Another girl said angrily: "I also publicly insulted Professor Tong's scientific research team, which is full of Chinese students, which caused the progress to be slow... Idiot!"

Xu Mang was stunned for a moment, it was obvious that the two girls were talking about their cousin, but he didn't expect that what was originally just a simple academic issue would escalate to a personal attack and openly ridicule Chinese students, which was simply death.

Doesn't this guy know that today's Huaguo is no longer the Huaguo of the past? Or is that poor sense of superiority at work? Thinking of this... Xu Mang couldn't help but sigh, sometimes... Never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.

"I'm thinking that if our Academician Xu is here, that Professor Klaas of Cornell University will still be so arrogant, and he will definitely be scared to death by Academician Xu, at his level... can see Academician Xu, even if he burns high incense. The girl said before: "I heard that Academician Xu has gone back... It's a pity. ”

"Hmm!"

"I originally wanted to meet Academician Xu, he is my male god. Another girl smiled and said, "If Academician Xu divorces... I don't mind being a stepmother to his children. ”

"Cut!"

"If you have this chance, I will get you in this round!" said the schoolgirl angrily, "Don't daydream like this... Nothing interesting. ”

Hear this,

Xu Mang felt quite embarrassed, he couldn't imagine that he would accidentally become a male god in the minds of others, I have to say... Xiao Man is very lucky, she snatched one of the most handsome men in the world, and made so many single women cry secretly, it's really bad...

After eating hot dogs,

Xu Mang hurriedly left the restaurant and went to the laboratory that his cousin had mentioned before.

...

"This New York University professor Tong... Why did you bring a group of Chinese students?" Professor Klaas found Martin, a professor in the Department of Physics at New York University, and asked curiously, "I suspect... It is because the ability of Chinese students is too low, which delays our progress. ”

"Shh

"Klaas... Don't say that again!" Professor Martin said cautiously: "It's easy to cause everyone's anger, it's not the same now as before, in short, don't put forward such a concept again, it's easy to ruin your reputation." ”

Klaas doesn't believe in evil, and although China has gained a firm foothold in the international community in recent years, that disdain hasn't disappeared, of course... It's not that he doesn't care at all, Xu Mang is Klaas's nightmare, Klaas doesn't want to meet Xu Mang, and he doesn't want to have any intersection with him.

"That's right!"

"Did Professor Tong find a helper?" Professor Klaas remembered the previous picture, and the confident Professor Tong asked confusedly, "Her expression today is different from before, and she even bet with me that it can be completed in a few days." ”

Few days?

Impossible, right?

Professor Martin was stunned for a moment, and felt puzzled about it, because the problems encountered by his colleagues are currently unsolvable, of course, not completely unsolvable, and with the level of his colleagues, it can be said that it is difficult to complete.

These days have also validated the idea, there has been no progress at all, however... It's a joke to suddenly say today that the problem can be solved in a few days, but if you find a helper, maybe it's possible.

Who?

Who will this helper be?

Professor Tong's circle of contacts is very small, and almost all the mathematicians she knows herself, and there is no one who can solve this problem, so who will this mysterious helper be?

"Should... There was no help. Professor Martin frowned and said seriously: "I basically know the people Professor Tong knows, and within this range, I can hardly find anyone who can solve this problem. ”

"Really?"

"That's weird... Why is Professor Tong different from usual?" Klaas was silent for a long time, and asked curiously, "How did she say those words?"

Faced with this problem,

I'm afraid the two can't solve it, but there are still various speculations, but these speculations are somewhat unreliable.

meanwhile

Xu Mang has already found that building, I have to say... This building is very large, but the place is a bit remote, compared to the central square, it takes Xu Mang more than 20 minutes to walk, but it is also in the center of the city.

"?"

"How do you go?" Xu Mang looked at the building in front of him with a confused expression, and he didn't care about anything... I simply walked in, and I didn't meet anyone along the way, so I searched silently, and I searched inside for five minutes, but I still didn't find it.

"It's over, it's over... I'm so lost!" Xu Mang hurriedly took out his mobile phone and made a call to his cousin.

"Hello?"

"Cousin... Where is your laboratory?" Xu Mang asked, "I'm in Building XXX right now. ”

"Staircase No. 2, then walk forward thirty meters and turn left. My cousin said.

"Oh..."

Hang up the phone,

Xu Mang hurriedly ran over according to the address he said, and sure enough... There's a lab, push the door in... It was found that there was no one in there at all, except for some strange equipment, and only a few chairs remained.

Alas?

What's the situation?

Why is there no one?

After taking a closer look at these devices, I instantly knew what research this laboratory was doing, and I already had a number in my heart, which was not so high-end.

"It's boring..."

"I thought it was!" Xu Mang sighed and silently went to the three rooms on the side, but there was no hint written on the door frame, so the letter ABC was pasted, and Xiao Man was A-... So Xu Mang has a soft spot for A.

Bang bang bang!

There was a gentle knock on the office door.

"Please come in!"

Suddenly

A strong man's voice was heard.

Xu Mang was stunned for a moment... I didn't care about anything, I pushed the door directly and entered, and saw two middle-aged men sitting inside, and in an instant... The eyes of the three of them were focused.

"I'm sorry... Wrong!" Xu Mang smiled awkwardly and politely.

Klaas: ???

Martin:???

Composed...

Xu Mang?!

......
