For all Olympiad finals, the training camp is always the proper meaning of the question. The significance of the Olympiad training is not how much Olympiad answering skills can be improved in a short period of time, but to try to let the Olympiad geniuses realize the unfathomable world of mathematics and complete the transformation from competition mathematics to advanced mathematics.

As an internationally renowned and leading university in China, although mathematics has always been its weakness, its appeal in the academic community should not be underestimated. The High School Affiliated to Jingshi University is its descendant, and it can also pull a tiger skin as a banner. For example, in this Olympiad training, not only the chairman of the Chinese Mathematical Society and 2 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences were invited to help, but also the double winner of the Fields Medal and the Sun Yuanqi Award, Grothendieck!

Grothendieck, whether he is called a master of algebraic geometry or a super-mathematical genius, is recognized as the first mathematical man of the twentieth century, who laid the foundations of modern algebraic geometry. However, this genius, who completely changed modern mathematics, gave up mathematics at the peak of his career and chose to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, becoming the uncrowned emperor of the mathematical world. The reason why the Chinese Mathematical Society was able to invite this big man out of the mountain is that in addition to the famous name of Jingshi University and Sun Yuanqi, the mysterious Orient and legendary Buddhism are also one of the important factors.

Hearing Grothendieck's report, all the students of the Olympiad training class fell into a frenzy.

Gao Leng and arrogant like Merlin, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself: "I actually had the opportunity to meet the emperor of mathematics, and this time I really earned it! Even if I can't get the first prize in the Olympiad, even if I can't guarantee the University of Jingshi, as long as I can see the emperor and get the autograph, I think my journey to participate in the Olympiad has been completed!"

"What about Hu Peiwei?" Jiang asked narrowly.

"Peiwei is my goal in reality, and Gehuang is my idol in the spiritual world, the two are different. Merlin made the distinction very clear, "It's as if Pei Wei may admire your talent and looks, but that doesn't stop her from staying with me for the rest of her life." ”

"......" Jiang Shuiyuan wanted to ask him: Brother, where did you get your confidence?

After a pause, Merlin said, "Even so, I hope you will stay away from Peiwei in the future!"

Jiang Shuiyuan looked depressed: What's the matter? Are you afraid that after Hu Peiwei forms a correct aesthetic, she will dislike your dark skin and mustache even more?

Zhang Jin stammered, "For, for, why, Ge, Ge, Mr. Grothendieck will, will—"

"Why did Uncle Ge leave his secluded Pyrenees and come to us for a walk? I guess Uncle Ge is calling on China to stop producing and researching smog, because he is a staunch pacifist and a radical environmentalist, and he must have a negative attitude towards smog, a weapon of mass destruction. Jiang Shuiyuan said nonsense.

Merlin pouted: "Emperor Ge came to Jingshi University to consult the manuscript of Mr. Sun Baixi, the Father of the Nation, and on a whim, he wanted to learn from the Father of the Nation to teach middle school students, and then this good thing fell on our heads." I heard that Emperor Ge was going to give a lecture, so our school directly chartered a few cars and dragged all the members of the Olympiad Society over, not expecting to hear Emperor Ge's class, just asking to see Emperor Ge for a look. ”

Not only that, but the big names in the Chinese mathematics community are also excited. In the past few days, the phone call of the Chinese Mathematical Society has almost been blown up: "Hey, I am Dong Xin from the Department of Mathematics of Aurora University, and I am also the director of our society, I want to attend the lecture on Grothendieck 25, please leave me a seat!"

"Thank you for participating, but the number of seats is very tight right now, and the number of reservations has far exceeded the maximum capacity of the venue. At present, the society is coordinating, you can leave your contact information, and we will notify you as soon as there is news!"

"Then you can make a bigger venue!" Dong Xin was a little dissatisfied.

"We have deployed the largest multi-functional academic lecture hall, which can accommodate 800 people, and no matter how big it is, we can only use the gymnasium!"

"How can there be so many people?"

"If you think about how many students majoring in mathematics are there in so many universities and research institutes in Beijing, and how many scholars are engaged in mathematics research? This is not counting the mathematics enthusiasts in society. As soon as the news spread, they organized a group to sign up. ”

"What kind of excitement are they making? To put it mildly, how many of them can understand Grothendieck's lectures? You too, Grothendieck has a rare opportunity, and how precious an opportunity is? Wouldn't it be more meaningful for the development of mathematics in our country to find some scholars with whom they can talk to him?"

"Actually, Mr. Grothendieck initially just said that he wanted to talk to the students who participated in the Mathematics Olympiad......"

"Then you should be more cautious and don't put all cats and dogs into the venue. In my opinion, it is better to let Grothendieck give a lesson to the Olympiad students first, and then hold a small-scale seminar after class, only allowing the participation of the directors of the society and mathematicians with high professional titles, and then reduce the scope if there are many people, such as Changjiang scholars and outstanding young people. ”

The director of the society, the senior professional title, the Changjiang Scholar, and the outstanding youth, are you in these traps, right? The staff who answered the phone complained in his heart, and he was still very polite, after all, he was indeed a big man on the other side: "These are all decided by the leaders of the society." If you have any comments, you can report them directly. ”

“……”

Dong Xin was dumbfounded. It is true that he has an opinion, but this kind of opinion is not suitable for him to put forward publicly, and if this is spread out, how many people will he offend? If he is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a scholar of the party, with rough skin and thick flesh, and possessed by his own halo, of course he is not afraid of offending people. It's a pity that it's not enough to cultivate by yourself now, and you still want to be an academician in the future, how dare you make a block for yourself?

The next morning, Grothendieck's lecture began on time.

Academician Hui Chengze, the host, said: "More than half of the 20th century has passed. In the past, countless outstanding scientists have used their ingenuity to create a richer scientific civilization and material wealth than in the past 5,000 years. In my opinion, these outstanding scientists can be divided into two categories, one is known for solving difficult problems, innovating methods, and proving theorems, and the other is scientists, who are not interested in a specific and specific problem, but point to a grander and deeper knowledge structure, change the field of exploration through innovative new ideas, and seek the most fundamental and unified connection between phenomena. Suffice it to say, how important Mr. Sun is to physics, chemistry, biology, and computer science, then how important is Grothendieck to mathematics!"

Hundreds of listeners responded with warm applause, both in recognition of Hui Sungze's views and in tribute to Grothendieck.

"Now is Mr. Grothendieck!"

Then they saw a thin old man with glasses come up to the podium. Of course, his more striking feature is his bald head, and it is not known whether it was due to his extreme intelligence or because he believed in Buddhism. However, most people would agree that it is the former. Hu Peiwei is no exception, and at the same time sighed: "It's good to learn mathematics, but the top of your head is easy to get cold." ”

Jiang Shuiyuan had a relative: "Yes, I'm afraid that my head will be bald before I get stronger." ”

Hu Peiwei said: "Don't worry! Even if you are bald, you are the most handsome bald head." ”

Merlin's hand, which was touching his hairline, froze in mid-air.

Grothendieck's native language is German, but he usually speaks French and writes mathematical works. Considering the audience today, he gave his lecture in English: "I have noticed that in the East there has always been a great deal of respect for teachers, thinking that teachers can be compared to God, kings, and parents. For example, there are hundreds of people in the room, but everyone is quiet and in good order. When I was in school, I couldn't do that.

"I remember when I was a student at the Séven Lycée in Le Champon-sur-Lignon, I was particularly fond of naturalist lessons. Mr. Fleetdale, the naturalist teacher, was outstanding in his kindness and intellect, but unfortunately he did not punish his students, and as a result, he was very noisy in class. Towards the end of the semester, his voice was completely drowned out in the hustle and bustle, and he couldn't listen to the lecture at all. Maybe that's why I didn't become a biologist. If the students at Severn School were like everyone else, maybe I would be better at raising flowers and plants now, and maybe I could make a small contribution to the development of biology. ”

The audience chuckled: Okay, in the past, there was a repentant Ali Jackma, and Liu Jingdong, who didn't know his wife, and now he has a number of students.

Emperor, you can!
