Chapter 253: Logical Self-Consistency
Less than three minutes after the scarf was sent out, the comment area was attacked by the melon-eating masses.
γNo...... Nobel?! γ
[The Cafford Prize, the legendary Little Nobel Prize!] Awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, it is mainly awarded to subjects not covered by the Nobel Prize, and no Chinese scholar has won it so far...... Having said so much, I just want to say one word, kneel for Lu Shen. γ
[This force is too hard, a little caught off guard. I was writing a few points of homework, and I didn't feel emotional, and I even wanted to cry a little. γ
[Big guy! Still forwarding the lottery? Do you still help with paper revision? I don't ask for help to change my dissertation, but just ask the big guy to hang a second work on my doctoral dissertation? It's really not good, and it's okay to do it in parallel! γ
[The one who said last night that Lu Shen didn't pretend to come out, I promise not to kill you! ] γ
[The saddest thing in the world is that you have already made a move, but I am still in the dark (crying) (crying)]
Looking at the comments of fans, Lu Zhou smiled.
Sure enough, sharing joy with others is a joyful thing, and surely his fans will be happy too.
Satisfied, Lu Zhou put his mobile phone on the bedside table, buried his head in the pillow, and fell asleep.
On the morning of the next day, the flags of Sweden, China, the United States, New Zealand and other countries fluttered at the door of the Mathematics Branch of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
As early as two hours before the start of the report meeting, there was already a long queue at the entrance of the lecture hall, and as the door of the newspaper auditorium opened, the auditorium of 1,000 people was full in less than ten minutes.
As the "opening remarks" of the Clafford Prize academic conference, Lu Zhou, dressed in formal clothes, stepped onto the podium and launched a one-hour report entitled "Goldbach Conjecture and Group Construction".
The content of the presentation was similar to what he had spoken at Princeton, except that the audience had broken through a new order of magnitude.
After all, no matter what, it is impossible for the No. 1 lecture hall of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton to accommodate 1,000 people at the same time.
And now, Lu Zhou only glanced at the venue and knew that there were far more than a thousand people sitting here, because there were still many people standing in the last row.
Clearing his throat, he straightened the microphone, responded to the countless pairs of expectant and serious eyes in the audience, and spoke.
"I'll try to make a long story short and spend more time on the question session."
"Regarding the Goldbach conjecture, I will start with the theory of group construction......"
β¦β¦
In the reports and exchanges of scholars, the three-day report came to an end, and the last part of the "celebration ceremony" of the Cafford Prize also came to an end with the closing ceremony of the academic report.
However, in this report meeting, Lu Zhou's participation was not high, and he was basically fishing the whole time.
In addition to his own lectures and the two math lectures he listened to, he even went to listen to two lectures on astronomy and astrophysics.
As for astronomy, Lu Zhou has no research at all, and at most he can understand things related to theoretical physics.
However, Professor Roger Branford, the winner of the Prize in Astronomy, also seemed to know that his field of study was relatively unpopular, so he explained his research in easy-to-understand popular science language, and the whole lecture was very interesting to listen to.
As for the rest of the time, Lu Zhou spends most of his time wandering around Stockholm's tourist attractions.
In the past six months, he has hardly rested, and it is rare to have a relaxing and comfortable vacation, and it is a pity not to use it.
What's more, there are free five-star hotels, making this trip to Stockholm perfect for a holiday.
As is customary, at the closing ceremony of the conference three days later, the award for the best speaker and the best paper award for the conference were selected.
There is no doubt that the report on Goldbach's conjecture is the most eye-catching and prominent.
However, this kind of award for young scholars will obviously not be awarded to Lu Zhou, nor will it be awarded to other scholars who are invited to give one-hour presentations.
After all, young people have to be given a chance.
So, Lu Zhou stood on the podium.
It's just not to receive the prize.
With a certificate and a check for 100,000 kroner (about $10,000) in hand, Lu Zhou solemnly handed it to a Ph.D. in mathematics from Brazil in recognition of his outstanding achievements in the field of ChevalΓ© monogroup research that he had reported at the presentation.
Although Lu Zhou always felt that this scholar should be much older than himself, it seemed a little inappropriate for him to be honored by himself. However, he thought that mathematicians under the age of forty were collectively called young mathematicians, so he ignored this insignificant sense of disobedience.
What's more, the recipients themselves don't care about this.
I saw that this Brazilian guy, instead of any dissatisfaction because the organizer arranged for a scholar younger than him to present him with an award, he excitedly shook Lu Zhou's hand and shook it for a long time before letting go.
β¦β¦
Happy times are always short-lived.
On the fourth day of his trip to Stockholm, as the academic exchange conference came to an end, it was finally time for Lu Zhou to say goodbye to the city.
In the evening of the same day, Academician Staffan personally drove a Volvo and sent him to Stockholm International Airport.
"Your room doesn't expire until the day after tomorrow, don't you stay here for two more days?"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Let's play again next time I come, there are still many people in my motherland waiting for me to go back." β
Staffan smiled and said, "If you have a chance to come here, remember to call me." β
Lu Zhou: "Definitely! β
Dragging his suitcase into the airport, Lu Zhou glanced at the flight information and saw that the plane had an hour to take off, so he found a place to sit down.
On the row of chairs across from him, a Chinese woman in her thirties was holding a babbling child and coaxing her dotingly.
The little girl lying in her mother's arms looked very smart, her little black eyes were looking around, and suddenly her fat little hand pointed at Lu Zhou.
"Mom, this big brother looks like the person in the book!"
A child's mouth is so sweet.
Lu Zhou smiled and put his hand into the travel bag and took out a piece of gold coin chocolate.
The gold coin chocolate at the Nobel dinner is one of the most beloved "chips" for physicists to bet on.
The Cafford Prize dinner is the same as the Nobel Prize, and of course gold coin chocolates are also served, the only difference is the packaging...... At least Lu Zhou can't eat the content, what's the difference.
However, he didn't have time to send it out yet.
The mother patted the little girl's back dotingly and said.
"It's a mistake, it's much older than you, I'm going to call it uncle."
The little girl tilted her head: "Shu Xiao? β
"That's right! The baby is so good, and that's called a magazine. Magazines are not books......"
"Shu Xiao! Magazine! β
"The baby is so good~"
The mother and daughter continued to communicate as if no one was around, the smile on Lu Zhou's face gradually disappeared, and the gold coins and chocolates in his hands were silently stuffed back into the travel bag.
MMPοΌ
Don't give!
However, the child's unintentional words caught his attention.
After the mother and daughter got up to leave, Lu Zhou stepped forward and picked up an English magazine from the bookshelf that the child pointed to earlier.
I didn't expect his photo to really hang on the cover, and it was quite handsome.
The background is probably at the scene of a briefing...... But he doesn't remember when it was filmed.
"People?"
Lu Zhou flipped open the cover with interest.
Wiles had been in the magazine, and although it had little to do with mathematics, he was curious to see what laymen thought of him.
With such a thought, when he saw a certain line of words, Lu Zhou suddenly smiled shyly, and the good mood that was originally destroyed by the bear child instantly became good.
How embarrassing is that......
γ25 Most Attractive People of the Year 2016γ
Among these 25 men and women, there are athletes, singers, doctors, policemen, and even princesses of a certain country...... As for the professor, he is the only one.
Although I don't know if the English word has the meaning of handsome when translated, Lu Zhou feels that there should be a little bit of it no matter how you say it.
No, to be exact, there are quite a few!
Otherwise, why put him on the cover? And not someone else?
There is no doubt that this logic is self-consistent!
