Chapter 22 Why not CUHK?

"Lin Meng, you are Lin Meng, right? How do you understand the integration of the circular method and the sieve method on page 32, line 16 of the paper? ”

"Mr. Lin, may I ask if the group theory is applied in the 3rd to 8th lines on page 35 of the paper, and why is it a little different?"

"Mr. Lin, may I ask the ...... on line 19 of page 16 of the paper?"

Under the guidance of the counselor, Lin Meng and Lu Yi had just walked into a conference hall of the School of Mathematics, and several old professors from the School of Mathematics gathered around with printed papers.

Proving that Brother Guess, Lin Meng has adopted a new method and tools and a new thinking, which is not something that can be fully understood in a short period of time.

And for these professors who have studied number theory and prime numbers all their lives, if they don't fully understand the above content, they will always feel uncomfortable like obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Lin Meng, who had never experienced such a battle, was a little flustered, and subconsciously looked at Lu Yi for help.

"Dear professors, don't worry about the questions, Lin Meng can ask for advice if there is anything he doesn't understand in school, I think the college is in such a hurry that we will come back and not just answer the paper."

Lu Yi asked Lin Meng to stand behind him, looking at the dean and director of the School of Mathematics behind him, and I have to say that it always feels a little strange to talk to the professor like this.

A professor asks an undergraduate?

"Yes, Professor Zhang, Professor Huang, Professor Luo, let the problem go for a while, and solve the problem on the Princeton side first."

Hearing Lu Yi's words, the deputy dean of the School of Mathematics in the back stepped forward to invite 3 professors, Gechai's reputation was too great, not only the two vice deans and the administrative director arrived at Qi, but even the rare dean also appeared, and even the deans of Lu Yi's School of Physics and the School of Chemistry also came to join in the fun.

"Lin Meng, Princeton and the Paris High School have sent a letter inviting you to give a one-hour report on the Goldbach conjecture, what do you think?"

The vice dean's attitude was very polite, and his tone was equal or even lower.

After all, Lin Meng proved that Gechai was less than 20 years old, and this is worthy of respect and attention wherever it is placed.

"I suggest going to Princeton, Lin Meng is studying mathematics, and it is more appropriate to go to Princeton."

Another vice dean of the School of Mathematics thought for a while and suggested, "If Lin Meng is interested, he can also go to Princeton to become a professor, so that it will be more helpful for our students to study in Princeton." ”

In a university, the backbone is professors, but the root is still students, and only by continuously cultivating high-quality students will the school become stronger and stronger.

CUHK is ranked 7th in China, but it is relatively weak in terms of academic and talent training, and even compared with low-ranking universities, and most of the overseas students are MBAs.

CUHK has an advantage over other universities, that is, it has money, and it is backed by various scientific research projects in China's largest economic province.

Now, if Lin Meng proves that Gechai has taken a few steps forward in the field of mathematics, so that more potential students can get better development, it is foreseeable that in the next few years, the ranking of CUHK will be able to leap a few places forward.

The combination of mathematics and physics can even lead to the development of CUHK in the field of physics.

"I don't want to go abroad." However, in the face of the proposal of the two vice presidents, Lin Meng shook his head.

This shaking of the head instantly disrupted the full plan in the hearts of several deans.

"Lin Meng, if you want to develop academically, you can't miss this report."

The dean, who was almost 60 years old and had a boxy face and wore glasses, stood up to convince him.

The academic community is very open-minded, can accept any theory, can accept the strange demands of some geniuses, and the academic community is also very closed, and a scholar who refuses to give a report without reason can easily be seized by a jealous villain and suffer from the ostracism of the entire academic community.

Far from and excluded from academia, except for the emperor of mathematics who single-handedly supported most of the modern algebraic geometry, everyone else is unknown, but who is better than an emperor like that? How many years is it possible for one to emerge?

Lin Meng still shook his head, biting his lower lip and looking at Lu Yi, his eyes flashing with a strong sense of insecurity.

Is this afraid of going far away?

Lu Yi saw the uneasiness in Lin Meng's eyes, and turned his head to look at the deans of the School of Mathematics: "Since Lin Meng doesn't want to go abroad, why don't you hold the report at CUHK?"

I think this will be even more rewarding for CUHK, and Goldbach's conjecture is enough for other scholars from around the world to make a special trip. ”

Will the seminar be held at CUHK?

Several deans were stunned, looked at each other and thought about the feasibility, as for whether the harvest would be greater, this is simply nonsense.

The significance of holding a report meeting in one's own home is completely different from listening to someone else's place to hold it, and the reputation and even political significance of the gain are also completely different.

Their only concern was whether there would be international scholars coming to CUHK.

Don't just come to a group of domestic businesses to blow each other, then this is a joke.

"It should be no problem, if someone from other countries proves Goldbach's conjecture, the report will send me an invitation, and I will go over."

Professor Zhang just now gave his own opinion.

"Feasible."

Professor Luo also continued: "This paper uses new methods and tools, and it is a bit difficult to explore the ideas on your own, and I think others will need a report to explain to them." ”

"It's a centuries-old mathematical puzzle Goldbach's conjecture, and it's their loss not to come."

The vice dean thought about the possibility of a suggestion, he is also a professor of mathematics, although he does not study prime numbers, but he also understands the meaning of Gochai.

"In that case, then we are sure, put the report on our side, and send them an invitation letter."

Dean Yao of the School of Mathematics finally settled the matter.

"Lin Meng."

Several deans were perfecting the questions of the report meeting, and the senior director of the School of Mathematics stepped forward and asked Lin Meng: "I wonder if Goldbach's conjecture is over, what will your research topic need help from the academy next?" ”

Less than 20 years old proves that Lin Meng has the signboard of the School of Mathematics of CUHK, and he does not need to be too frugal in the investment of resources for the signboard.

"No, my friend has built a physics lab, and I'm going to go there to study it next." Lin Meng shook his head lightly and declined.

"Physics lab? Personal? Director Gao was stunned for a moment and looked at Lu Yi.

Although Lin Meng has no problem developing from mathematics to physics applications, no matter how you look at the private physics laboratory, it feels like a fool, so you shouldn't be deceived by brushing your face, right?
