Chapter 451: Collapsed Konstantin

Chapter 451

In the living room, the atmosphere was a little silent and oppressive.

Karl hung his head and remained silent.

Konstantin, on the other hand, was completely in a state of stupor, and he has not yet recovered from his composure.

Because Konstantin really couldn't accept this reality.

Two hours ago, he was also overjoyed to get the recorded evidence of his gambling contract with Gu Lu.

But now.

Konstantin was already not able to laugh at all.

After facing such a cruel reality, Konstantin's mentality has collapsed.

For a man as arrogant as Konstantin, it is difficult to accept defeat.

And it was such a complete failure.

Because according to the progress on their side, it will be at least five or six months before the proof of the special Hodge conjecture can be completed.

And now Gu Lu has proved it, which is as much as half a year ahead of their progress.

More critically.

There were only two people on Gu Lu's side, him and Simon.

And there are really three of them on their side.

Three people fight two, and if they can't beat it, they are still half behind in key progress.

That's not in a sense.

The three of them were beaten by Gu Lu and Simon in all directions.

This defeat came too suddenly, and it was also too complete!

This was a huge blow to Konstantin.

The pride in his heart had now been shattered by the cruel result.

Konstantin leaned back on the sofa as if he had been suddenly drained of his energy, his eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.

Suddenly, Konstantin remembered the phone call with Gu Lu two hours ago.

"How far have you done on your project?"

"Two-thirds of them. What about you?"

"Oh, before you called, I was preparing to submit an article to the Annals of Mathematics!"

It turned out that he was the only one who told lies at that time.

And Gu Lu is telling the truth!

…………

Konstantin did not admit defeat so easily.

The pride in his heart also made him not fall like this.

After more than ten minutes of doubting his life, Konstantin finally accepted this harsh reality.

"Karl, are you going to bring Alec to me?" Constantine said, getting up.

"Konstantin, Alec is probably asleep by now. Carl didn't move.

"I say, bring Alec here, now, right now!" Konstantin said slowly, in a calm tone.

But Karl could clearly hear the anger hidden beneath Constantine's calm tone.

Carl looked up and saw that Konstantin's eyes were bloodshot.

He was instantly creepy.

"You're not going?" Konstantin began.

"Go, I'll go right away!" Karl hurried away.

More than half an hour later.

Alec, who was half-asleep, was dragged by Carl to Constantine's house.

Konstantin then said what the three of them would do next.

"What, we're looking for a loophole in Gu Lu's paper?" Karl exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right!" Konstantin clenched his right hand into a fist, with a sneer on his face, "I don't believe that Gu Lu's dissertation in half a year will be perfected to an impeccable degree!"

"And our next job is to find out the loopholes in Gu Lu's paper, to show that Gu Lu proves that the derivation process of the special Hodge conjecture is logically wrong, so as to overturn Gu Lu's entire paper!"

"In this way, the paper that Gu Lu worked hard to complete for half a year will become a pile of waste paper, and we will be the first people in the world to prove the narrow Hodge conjecture!"

Karl looked at Constantine, who was standing in front of him like a madman, and didn't know what to say.

Gu Luken uploaded the paper to Arxiv, which shows that they must have a lot of self-confidence, confident that the theory in the paper is quite perfect, and will not be picked on by others.

Again.

Even if a loophole is found in Gu Lu's paper.

As long as it's not a core part of the vulnerability, but just some innocuous small loopholes, then even if it is found, it still has no effect.

Wanting to bring down Gu Lu's entire theoretical system is even more empty talk in empty talk.

Obviously, Konstantin has been stimulated to lose part of his sanity.

Alec on the side expressed dissatisfaction, "Konstantin, what about our narrow Hodge conjecture project, we can't just stop the progress." ”

Konstantin lowered his head and smiled, "Then don't worry about it first, wait for us to solve the trouble in front of us, and then continue the previous work at all." ”

"In that case, I'll go back to sleep first, and I'll be to the office on time tomorrow. Alec yawned and waved his hand to leave.

"Wait, don't go. Konstantin called out to him.

"What, is there anything else?" Alec turned his head in confusion.

A sneer appeared on the corner of Konstantin's mouth, "Who told you that our work will only start tomorrow morning?"

"What do you mean?" Alec's eyes widened.

"Now. Konstantin put on his coat and said, "Let's go to the office now!"

…………

Yan University, the building of several hospitals.

In the vice president's office, Bao Songquan looked at Gu Lu in front of him excitedly.

"Gu Lu, did you and Professor Simon really prove the narrow Hodge conjecture?"

Compared with Bao Songquan's excitement, Gu Lu's expression was much more flat.

Gu Lu nodded, "Actually, about a week ago, Simon and I completed the proof of the narrow Hodge conjecture, but it took a lot of time to write the paper and it took me until now. ”

"Half a year to prove the narrow Hodge conjecture, to be honest, if you hadn't told me in person, I wouldn't have believed it at all. Bao Songquan's eyes showed a hint of shock.

Bao Songquan thinks the same thing as most mathematicians.

In the face of a top world conjecture such as the narrow Hodge conjecture, a weak conjecture of the seven major problems of the millennial world, Gu Lu and Simon can prove it in just half a year, which sounds like a fantasy.

Let's be honest.

Regarding the war between Gu Lu and Constantine, Bao Songquan thought that Gu Lu might win.

But Bao Songquan never imagined that Gu Lu would win so neatly.

I thought it was a needle-to-wheat battle.

But I didn't expect that it was actually an adult bullying children.

Gu Lu easily slashed Konstantin off the horse.

And judging from Gu Lu's current expression, Gu Lu didn't care so much about winning such a victory.

"Haha, Gu Lu, you have caused the entire mathematical world to earthquake again this time!" Bao Songquan said with a smile.

Gu Lu helplessly spread his hands.

Obviously, Gu Lu is aware of some of the discussions on foreign mathematics forums.

Now, in less than half a day, the international mathematics forum has been slaughtered by the news that Gu Lu proved the narrow Hodge conjecture.

All the posts are about this.

And at this time, it was still dark in most parts of Europe and the United States.

Presumably, by dawn, the discussion will explode again!
