Chapter 636: Zhang Wei
Chapter 636
Regarding Zhang Wei's information, Gu Lu recalled so much.
Although Zhang Wei is a Chinese mathematician, both of them are alumni of Yan University.
However, due to the fact that they live abroad all the year round, there is not much intersection between Gu Lu and Zhang Wei.
Even......
The two had never even met.
Gu Lu had only seen a photo of Zhang Wei on the alumni honor wall on the first floor of the Mathematics Building.
But.
It's good that Gu Lu hasn't seen Zhang Wei.
But for Zhang Wei's glorious deeds, Gu Lu is still like thunder.
After all.
The current Zhang Wei is a card figure in the field of algebra in the Chinese mathematics community.
Not according to qualifications, only about strength.
Zhang Wei's attainments in the field of algebra are enough to rank among the top five in China.
............
Academician Wu is right.
According to Zhang Wei's attainments in the field of algebra, he is fully qualified to serve as the leader of the algebra section in the subject of Gu Lu.
But......
Then again.
Why did Zhang Wei choose to help himself?
Now Zhang Wei should still be teaching at MIT.
"Elder Wu, isn't Senior Brother Zhang Wei still teaching at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology?" Gu Lu asked the doubts in his heart.
"Resigned. Academician Wu replied simply.
"Resigned?" Gu Lu was stunned.
"Well, resigned, just a week ago. Academician Wu introduced to Gu Lu, "Almost a week ago, Zhang Wei decided to respond to the call of our country's Thousand Talents Program, resigned from abroad, and returned to our country. ”
The Thousand Talents Program in the mouth of Academician Wu is accurately named the Overseas High-level Talent Introduction Program.
The main targets are high-level Chinese scientific researchers who are at the top of all walks of life.
And this time, Zhang Wei chose the call of the corresponding national Thousand Talents Program, returned to his roots, and returned to China.
"Senior Brother Zhang Wei is coming back?" Gu Lu said in surprise.
To be honest, this news shocked Gu Lu a lot.
On resources, on treatment, on the environment.
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is definitely much better than the Chinese side.
And Senior Brother Zhang Wei chose to return to Huaguo at the peak of his momentum, which had to suffer considerable losses.
For Zhang, intellectually speaking, continuing to teach at MIT was the best choice.
The Fields Medal was naturally missed by Zhang Wei because of his age.
But the Wolf Award, which represents the Lifetime Achievement Award, Zhang Wei can still impact a wave.
Of course......
This is on the premise that Zhang Wei remains at MIT.
"I have met Zhang Wei, this kid, is a very stubborn guy, and he will definitely go back to do what he thinks. Academician Wu on the other side of the phone said with a smile, "Besides, your original choice was not the same." ”
Academician Wu recalled the past, "I remember that at the beginning, when the National Mathematicians Conference was just convened, you were also recruited by many famous universities abroad, and even the conditions offered to you were very superior. ”
"And your choice, isn't it better to stay in our Huaguo and stay in Yanda. ”
Gu Lu chuckled and didn't bother with this question anymore.
Since Zhang Wei chose to resign at MIT, it would be superfluous to say anything more now.
"Elder Wu, although Senior Brother Zhang Wei has returned to Huaguo, there is no reason to join my project team. Gu Lu wondered.
Zhang Wei returned to China.
But choosing to join your own research group is another matter.
Zhang Wei and Gu Lu are not related.
The two of them weren't even nodding acquaintances.
It is impossible for Zhang Wei not to know how high the risk coefficient of such a topic as the geometry-algebra-topology grand unified theory is.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Wei also chose to join his own research group, why?
I can't say that I like myself.
Facing Gu Lu's doubts, Academician Wu said with a smile, "This is what Zhang Wei took the initiative to mention to me, as for the specific why, this question needs to be asked to him personally." ”
Gu Lu pondered for a few seconds and said, "Then Old Wu, when can you arrange for me to meet Senior Brother Zhang Wei." ”
For Zhang Wei, Gu Lu now has too many curiosities and questions.
Academician Wu slowly spoke, "Zhang Wei will fly to Yanjing tomorrow morning, and as for the meeting, it will be arranged in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow." ”
Gu Lu nodded, "Yes." ”
After saying this, Gu Lu hung up the phone.
Then, Gu Lu opened the webpage on the computer and searched for detailed information about Zhang Wei.
............
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for Gu Lu and Zhang Wei to meet.
Inside the study.
Gu Lu picked up the list in front of him and glanced at it, and then put it into the briefcase he was carrying.
In this list, the members of the current research group have been confirmed.
There are twenty-four in total.
Give Shang Gu Lu another two or three days, and you can make up the number of thirty.
Gu Lu changed into a slightly formal outfit and drove to a restaurant.
It was a restaurant with old Yanjing-style specialties, and the location was Zhang Weiding.
Say what is because I am tired of eating foreign food, and I want to taste the taste of Chinese local authentic cuisine.
Since the time was more than two o'clock in the afternoon, it was already past the meal, so there were not many people in the restaurant.
Gu Lu stepped into the restaurant, swept around the hall, and noticed Zhang Wei's figure at a window.
Same as in the photo.
Zhang Wei's whole person looked dry and thin, wearing a pair of rimless glasses and an ordinary suit.
If Gu Lu hadn't seen Zhang Wei in the photo, it would be really hard to say that he could recognize him at a glance in the crowd.
At the same time that Gu Lu noticed Zhang Wei, Zhang Wei seemed to have a kind of inductive look up, and his gaze fell directly on Gu Lu.
Compared with Zhang Wei's transparency, Gu Lu is much more conspicuous, and he belongs to an existence that will not be ignored anywhere.
Looking at each other, some kind of mood between the two seemed to be entangled, and then the two of them invariably showed a smile.
"Senior Brother Zhang!"
"Professor Gu!"
Two big hands clasped together affectionately.
"I've heard from friends that Professor Gu is young and handsome, and when I saw him today, it was really the case!" Zhang Wei poured a cup of tea for Gu Lu and said with a smile.
"Senior Brother Zhang's name, I heard it when I was still studying at Yan University, and I admired you very much, and now that I see it with my own eyes, it can be regarded as a dream of mine!" Gu Lu also complimented.
"Professor Gu, this really tormented me, Professor Gu's deeds in college are much more glorious than mine, you are a genius player, I was very envious when I was in college at that time!" Zhang Wei sighed in a low voice.
"No, no, no, Senior Brother Zhang Wei, you are the model of our generation. Gu Lu smiled and waved his hand.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a long time.
A rainbow fart was blown down by each other, and both of them were physically and mentally comfortable.
