Chapter 144: Interview (for Luzhou Monster Shu Huang)
The conference ended, and after an exciting first day and a second day full of surprises, the third day was marked by a massive earthquake that shook the mathematicians for a while.
Fortunately, with Grothendieck's presence, the situation was temporarily under control, and no matter what kind of attitude they had towards Lu Qiujian's speech, at least they were deeply impressed.
This is also the purpose of Lu Qiujian, although he may be able to solve these problems alone, but it is inevitably too time-consuming, and if he can concentrate the strength of mathematicians all over the world, coupled with his own efforts, it will be much faster to accomplish this goal! It took only 10 million US dollars to spend on this, which is really worth it!
Of course, he also did some tricks in the setting of the problem, these ten problems are the necessary prerequisites for completing his plan, and only when these ten problems are solved can he complete his plan. Of course, this is just a tool to make a handy, and to put the plan into practice, he still needs to rely on physics, which is why he plans to change majors after graduation.
Richard Feynman, one of the most important theoretical physicists since Einstein, once said: Mathematics is to physics what masturbation is to sex;
Of course, there is still a period of time before applying for school, and my most important job at the moment is to take advantage of the last time of college to promote the development of mathematics as soon as possible.
After the meeting, some people hurriedly embarked on the return journey before they had time to attend the dinner, some planned to leave the next day, and of course some chose to stay, because Lu Qiujian's questions did scratch their itch.
For those who want to leave, Jingshi University will send them to the airport by car, and they will naturally be happy to stay. The re-accommodation will be rearranged to make room in the office building of the Faculty of Mathematics for their exchanges, and of course an invitation to a lecture will be sent to a specialist of high standing.
As for media propaganda, whether it is newspaper readers or television viewers, they are more concerned with the Fields Medal than with the Poincaré conjecture itself.
After 20 or 30 years of opening up, China's economic development has been rapid, and the country's status and people's self-confidence have been continuously enhanced; economically, China's total GDP has ranked sixth in the world, and it is very close to France, which is fifth, and it may hope to surpass it this year; in sports, the medal table of the last Olympic Games also ranked third.
It's just that in science, Huaguo still hasn't won a heavyweight medal, which inevitably makes the Chinese people a little regretful. In their words, the national football team has entered the World Cup, why can't they even win a Nobel Prize?
Now that Lu Qiujian has won the Fields Medal, which is known as the "Nobel Prize in mathematics," how can they be dissatisfied with their expectations; perhaps the only regret is that the Fields Medal is awarded once every four years, and the last time it was awarded last year, and the next award will not be until two years later, which makes them a little unable to wait.
Lu Qiujian became a hot topic in the media for a while, and the Imperial Court Station not only made a special program for this report meeting, but even gave a one-minute report to the news program at 7 o'clock; other newspapers and the Internet began to spread propaganda all over the world to explain the status and history of the Fields Medal to readers. Looking for experts to explain the great significance of Poincaré's conjecture and the reason why he will win the award, Lu Qiujian's personal public information was dug up by them, from the full score of the first mathematics test in primary school to the mathematics score of more than 140 in the college entrance examination, of course, the news of the college entrance examination also caused netizens to complain for a while. Even such a powerful mathematician can't achieve a perfect score, isn't it too difficult to take the college entrance examination mathematics?
However, this is the achievement of Lu Qiujian's original owner, and he is powerless, and then the invitation to the interview flew from all directions, under the expectations of the school. He chose the imperial court to cooperate, and the others all claimed that they wanted to concentrate on research and had no time and regretfully refused. This caused countless media dissatisfaction, and the argument that he was playing a big name began to spread.
According to the agreed time. The reporter from the imperial court station came to Beijing Normal University, and Li Xiao, an old acquaintance he met in the United States before, was also in the team, but this time he could only play a supporting role.
The location of the interview was chosen in an office in the Department of Mathematics building, and this interview with Lu Qiujian was a well-known beautiful host, and the audience commented that her program was full of intellectual beauty and humanistic care.
After a few pleasantries, the cameraman officially started the interview after debugging the equipment, "First of all, congratulations on your great achievement in cracking the Poincaré conjecture!"
"Thank you!" Lu Qiujian has encountered too many such congratulations during this time, "I just pierced a piece of window paper on the basis of my predecessors!"
"You are too modest!" the host smiled professionally, "Mr. Lu, I believe that many viewers are as curious as me, when did you first become interested in mathematics?"
Lu Qiujian closed his eyes and thought for a while, "Probably when I first learned to speak, my mother taught me to count, and I learned very fast at that time, so I was rewarded with a lot of candy, which gave me a hint that mathematics is a very sweet thing, and I have developed a strong interest in mathematics since then." ”
"It seems that you have a good mother, so do your parents expect you to be a mathematician?"
Lu Qiujian shook his head, "No, according to their plan for me, I hope I can successfully complete my university studies, and then return to my hometown, return to work in the old factory where they have been for decades, become a respected engineer, and then get married and have children by their side, and spend a stable and happy life!"
"Although you didn't go according to their plan, your achievements today will definitely make them proud!" After complimenting the host, he asked a question that the audience was very concerned about, "I have seen the video of your game in the NCAA, and your basketball level is really amazing, even if it is extended to the world, there don't seem to be many talents like you who have reached the top level in multiple fields at the same time!"
"I don't like the term genius, it makes me feel as if my efforts are meaningless!" Lu Qiujian joked. (To be continued.) )
