Chapter 256: Wiles (3rd Update)

A sudden meteor shower adds a bit of mystery to this short trip.

It lasted for more than half an hour before slowly falling into the end.

The sky had already darkened, and in a burst of cheers, the members of the Olympiad team set foot on their way home, Su Mu looked up at the sky, and always felt that this meteor shower had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

After returning to the hotel, there was nothing else to do, and videos about this particular meteor shower had begun to circulate on the Internet, most of which were thought to be beautiful and beautiful, and no one found anything special abnormal.

The next day's excursion was to Oxford University, and the bus was a little closer, arriving around noon the next day.

"It's out, it's out, it's starting to be out."

Lunch at noon was eaten in the cafeteria of the University of Oxford, and the school and the Olympiad had already coordinated in advance.

It's just that halfway through the meal, many players from various countries began to boil.

"It's really out of the cracks."

The first search result was Yinhong.

"But there are still a few black spots, only half of them are out."

Dai Binbin also searched the webpage from Google, pushed his eyes, and said, "Now it's just a matter of coordinating points." ”

Yue Hao leaned his head over and nodded

"Each row in the picture represents a contestant, and each column represents the total score for each question. The black dots represent the scores that have been coordinated but hidden, and in most countries, each question will hide the results of one player, and each player will also hide one question, and it is estimated that the results will not be available until the evening. ”

"Why hide?"

Yinhong was a little puzzled.

"Hang your appetite."

Yue Hao shrugged his shoulders

"It's also possible to coordinate, I don't know the specifics, our side is the deputy team leader involved in the translation, and he shouldn't be able to contact the outside world now."

"The results we announced seem to be pretty good, and I feel like there are still a lot of 7s."

"That 1 should be me."

Chen Junlang sighed, a little ashamed

"I didn't do the third question on my first day."

There are a total of six questions in the World Mathematics Olympiad, each question is 7 points, if it is 7, it means that this question has received a full score.

In the few questions announced now, except for a 1 in the Huaxia team, almost all of them are 7 or 6.

Because of the successive announcements of the results, not only the members of the Olympiad group, but also many people on the Internet are discussing today's results.

It's a pity that because of the hesitation about the existence of the Huaxia Firewall, most of the people in the comment area are from European and American countries.

In the results released now, among the top ranking, the scores of the Chinese team, the United States team, and the South Korean team are very close.

The simple questions are similar to everyone, and the most important thing is to look at the results of question 6.

Because of Chen Junlang's 1, Su Mu and the others were a little worried.

In the speculation on the Internet, it has been rumored that the United States and South Korea have the same total score, and the Chinese team is only third.

Chen Junlang's mood was a little low.

Although there are still some questions that have not yet come out, his low score is the decisive factor.

If he loses the first place in the team because of him, he really doesn't know how to face these teammates.

"There are still scores that have not yet been announced, and the sixth question is the most difficult, so there should be a chance to reverse." Yue Hao patted Chen Junlang on the shoulder, now that he has finished the exam, there is no point in blaming his teammates.

Yinhong sighed, "The sixth question is very difficult, I only got half of it, I don't know how many points I can get." ”

Yue Hao""

"It's okay, you don't have to worry, we must be the first in Huaxia."

Su Mu finished the last bite of food.

took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, without the slightest heaviness, obviously much more relaxed than the others.

"How?"

Yue Hao was a little curious, not understanding why Su Mu was so sure and relaxed.

"Because I'm a great prophet."

"Ding, you won a gold medal in the International Mathematical Olympiad and were rewarded with 1 green skill point."

"Ding, you won the first place in the National Team Award in the International Mathematical Olympiad, rewarded with green skill points 2"

"Ding, you won a special prize in the International Mathematical Olympiad with blue skill point 1"

Several consecutive system messages directly made Su Mu feel good.

Although I don't know why the system issued rewards when the news was not officially established, one thing is obvious, three green skill points plus one blue skill point, Su Mu directly earned a lot of money this time!

The other students were still hotly discussing which team would become this year's champion, and Su Mu had already returned to the hotel and began to talk to Yan Xiaoke about what to eat together when they went back to Qianbei!

At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the students gathered again.

Most of the candidates have mixed emotions, one is because they are thinking about the real-time release of the scores, but in this lecture in the afternoon, they will see the master of mathematics with their own eyes!!

The content that Wiles is going to talk about today is about modular elliptic curves and Fermat's theorem, which echoes the Olympiad problem of the third problem on the first day of this year, and has a great sense of anticipation.

The lecture was held in a castle-like lecture hall, and in addition to the Olympiad members, there were many other students who came to visit.

Wiles is usually very low-key and does not appear often, usually only appearing at department conferences.

Therefore, this kind of lecture opportunity is an excellent opportunity for students who love mathematics.

Looking at the old man who was nearly 70 years old on the podium, Su Mu was slightly calm.

Although Wiles looks a little old, he is very athletic, and his eyes under the white frame are full of determination in mathematics.

In the face of this group of mathematical seeds from all over the world, this math master has nothing to hide.

At the end, he also talks about his thoughts on the Wolf and Fields Medals.

This made Su Mu not only fall into deep thought.

Although the Chinese team's results in the Olympiad are very good every year, in the mathematical community, the Wolf Medal and the Fields Medal, which are equivalent to the Nobel Prize, have not been selected by any native Chinese so far.

Although there have been a few Chinese professors who have won such honors, for the Chinese mathematics community, there is always something missing, and there is a blank here.

"Winning the International Mathematics Olympiad rewards blue skill points, if you can find a chance to win the Fields Medal, then you should also get a lot of rewards, right?"

Su Mu thought silently, and couldn't help but have a bold idea in his mind.

PS It's the beginning of the month! Ask for a referral ticket! Ask for a commuter pass!! Update diligently this month to see if you can move up a few more places on the leaderboard!
