Just when Lu Zhou began to write his dissertation in retreat, the Internet had already exploded.

I don't know which reporter or the scholar who came to participate in the conference, and the whole report was recorded online.

When I saw Lu Zhou writing that line of equations on the blackboard and saying the sentence "I solved it" in an affirmative tone, the barrage in the entire video boiled.

【666！ Have you found the general solution of the Young Mills equation? 】

[The land god is awesome! 】

[I'm so scared that my melon seeds have fallen.] 】

[Awesome, just this video can break one million views...... Is there a scientist per capita at Station X? 】

What is the Young Mills equation? I'm here to see the land god! 】

[Let me give you a popular science that the Young Mills equation is one of the most outstanding theoretical physics achievements of the twentieth century, which aims to describe the behavior between elementary particles in terms of non-abelian Li groups. If we can find the general solution of this equation, it will not only mean that we will have hope to understand the mass gap from the perspective of mathematical theory, but also mean that we will take a big step towards the grand unified theory! 】

What is the Great Unification? Can you eat it? 】

It is not only the barrage and comment area of this video that have aroused heated discussions, but also various media and self-media have also followed the heat.

Like "Americans will be silent when they see it, Japanese people will cry when they see it", "The theory of a unified world is very empty, and a mathematics professor in his twenties shocked the world again!" "Former Chief of U.S. Intelligence: The thing I regret most in my life is that I didn't leave him behind" Articles with titles such as these almost swept up the scarf, the official account, and the photo of standing in front of the blackboard and contemplating, was hung in various articles in almost every pose.

For a long time, the Yang Mills equation has been a milestone in the field of theoretical physics, and also as a strong stroke left by the Chinese in the history of theoretical physics.

Of course, there are also criticisms.

For example, a well-known big V whose main occupation is hair scarf, after watching this video, immediately forwarded the video and shook his wit.

"I don't care about his own academic achievements and the significance of Young Mills' equation for the time being, and it is a faux pas to throw the rest of the audience in the lecture hall as if it were a talk show that has thrown its own audience."

"As a Chinese scholar, I not only represent myself, but also represent the image of China as a great power. In addition to making academic achievements, we should be strict with ourselves and do a good job in private morality. ”

"What's more, it is extremely irresponsible to write a conclusion on the blackboard that has not been rigorously argued."

As soon as the retweet came out, the comment area immediately scolded each other and greeted each other's mothers.

[Ask the blogger to send out his private life for us to see, and by the way, see how you behave. 】

[Hehe, last time Sir Attiyah teased the entire mathematical community with five pages, you said that he was a warrior who was unwilling to grow old, why did he start to criticize again when he got here?] Co-authored because Professor Lu is not your foreign adult? 】

【Spicy chicken!】 What's wrong with what my XXX said? What's wrong with asking you to be polite? @￥%￥#%！ 】

Looking at the scolding comment area, the blogger happily hung an ad at the top, and then slipped away decisively.

In addition to the domestic media, the foreign media also paid considerable attention to this matter.

For example, the Daily Mail, which loves to do things, contacted a middle-aged professor at the University of St. Andrews who claimed to be an industry insider after the presentation.

In a news interview, when asked what he thought of the incident, the middle-aged professor spoke eloquently.

"I suspect that the general explanation was just a random copy of his hand."

The reporter was surprised: "Why? ”

Middle-aged professor: "Anyone who knows a little bit about mathematics knows that behind every page of rigorous paper, there are countless crumpled drafts. Especially for propositions such as partial differential equations, which eat a lot of calculations, how can they be solved without drafting? Just standing there and being inspired? ”

Reporter: "Why did Professor Lu scribble?" ”

The insider shrugged, "I don't know, maybe it's inflated?" Want to pay for horses? I have a brilliant algorithm that proves that this is the solution, but unfortunately there aren't enough slots for me to write it down. ”

……

At night.

Intercontinental Hotel.

The spacious banquet hall is filled with scholars dressed in formal attire, and tables covered with gold-encrusted white cloth are filled with champagne and Chinese and Western cuisine. In order to make up for the regrets left by the visiting scholars this morning and redeem a little bit of the evaluation in their hearts, Jindae can only use this way of eating and drinking well.

However, in fact, only a small number of people here were offended by Lu Zhou's "not playing according to the routine", and most of them were more concerned about the explanation of the board on the blackboard before he left than "Lu Zhou ended the report meeting without a question session".

"It's already eight o'clock," Glancing at his watch, Peverman glanced in the direction of the ballroom door, "It seems that our protagonist for today's banquet seems to be absent." ”

Originally, he was counting on asking Professor Lu about that solution at the banquet, but now it seems that he has no such opportunity.

With a bottle of champagne in his hand and a tuxedo, Wiles walked over and asked, "How's it going over there?" ”

Still wearing the black hat with the brim that covered his head, Deligne, who was standing at the long table, shook his head and said: "The amount of calculation is a bit large, and Researcher Chels told me that it will take two to three days to complete it if it is fast, and it is just dawn over there, and the engineer in charge of arranging supercomputing tasks has just gotten up." ”

The John Norman Supercomputing Center not only serves the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, but also provides computing power to the PPPL lab next door. Compared with the Institute for Advanced Study, which is engaged in basic scientific research, the latter, which is more responsible for projects from NASA or the Ministry of Science and Technology, is obviously relatively more important.

However, after all, he personally explained this matter, and it will not drag on for long.

What's more, such a world-class mathematical proposition is of some interest to the engineers at the John Norman Supercomputing Center.

Feverman sighed and said, "It would be nice if he could provide a process of derivation, even if it's just an idea." ”

Wiles smiled and asked, "It is said that now he is in retreat again?" I've always heard of Professor Luk's unique way of thinking about problems. ”

"It seems like yes," said Feverman, "he had a ...... of shutting himself in his room at Princeton Habit? In short, until he understands it, even if you visit him at this time, most of you will not be able to knock on his door. ”

"I'm not sure right now whether I should go back first or wait here for his results," Edward Witten continued, glancing at his phone, "In about five days, there's a meeting at CERN about a new collision experiment. ”

Wiles laughs and says, "CERN has endless meetings every day, but how many times can there be such opportunities to witness history?" ”

After thinking for a moment, Witten shrugged his shoulders.

"You have a point."

"Then wait another three days."
