Philadelphia International Airport.

After the car stopped, Molina pushed the car door, helped Lu Zhou open the trunk, and put her hand on it.

"Do you really not think about it anymore?"

Lu Zhou, who dragged the suitcase out, asked, "What to consider?" ”

Molina hesitated, then finally sighed and said, "Okay, let's be honest...... I would like you to join my group, and I am working on a very challenging topic. ”

"What subject?"

"Riemann conjecture."

"Wake up."

Molina raised her eyebrows, "It's not like what you would say, I thought you would have more courage to stand on that podium and overcome the twin prime conjecture." ”

"Like, brave enough to try to solve this problem in a dream?" Lu Zhou smiled.

Number theorists all over the world want to solve this problem, because whoever can kill this conjecture will undoubtedly become one of the most influential mathematicians today. In comparison, the million-dollar bounty is insignificant.

But how hard is this question?

To put it simply, it is so difficult that with his current LV3 math level, the system doesn't even bother to open the "offer", and the points are not displayed at all. Because in the eyes of the system, this thing is far from being able to solve it with his current math level, and it has no chance of winning at all.

The most cutting-edge research result in mathematics today is the American mathematician Kang Rui's "40% of the zero point is on the critical line", and this research result has been maintained for nearly 30 years, which is the so-called "Conrey critical line theorem".

And to advance this 40% to 100%, the challenger will face no easier difficulty than the work done by the British mathematician Hardy (Hua Luogeng's teacher) who planted the "red flag" on the critical line.

Of course, there are many people who try to break away from this method and use various strange poses to take off this crown of mathematics, but the final result is without exception.

Probably the most famous of these is Mr. De-Branges, who claimed in '04 that he had proved the Riemann hypothesis, but people preferred to take it as a joke.

After all, compared to those who don't even know "where the door is", this old gentleman is still somewhat famous in the mathematical community as far as the media claims to have proved this conjecture.

In contrast, before Lu Zhou proved the twin prime conjecture, mathematicians around the world advanced Mr. Zhang's "70 million" to the number "246" without even using a year.

It is foreseeable that Riemann guesses that in this big hole, I don't know how many "geniuses" will be filled in.

It's not that he's afraid of this challenge, but he doesn't need to challenge this nightmare level of difficulty right away. He could have waited for his math level to rise before trying to challenge the puzzles of this level.

Taking a deep breath, Molina made a final attempt to persuade, "It's not as pessimistic as you think, in fact, I've already achieved a little bit of results...... Although it may seem insignificant, I am confident that within three years, I will be able to push this figure from 40% to 50% as my doctoral thesis! Of course, if you're willing to help me, I can sign it alongside you......"

"This is also the reason why number theory is fascinating," without directly answering her question, Lu Zhou sighed and said softly, "Everyone thought that they were about to succeed, but when the results came out, they found that it was a beautiful joke." ”

In the past six months, he didn't know how many times, thinking that he had caught the tail of the twin prime conjecture, but reality told him again and again that everything was just his illusion.

How long does it take to prove this conjecture without the help of the system's heuristic time?

A year?

Or ten years......

It's hard to say.

After all, mathematics itself is a flash of inspiration, the result of more than ten years, and it is only a dozen pages on paper.

Lu Zhou looked at the time on his phone: "It's not early, I should leave too, thank you for sending me to the airport, next time I have the opportunity, I will invite you to dinner." ”

“…… I will be waiting for you here, your stage should be all over the world! Looking at the back of Lu Zhou turning around and walking towards the airport, Mo Lina couldn't help but say something.

Hearing the sound from behind, Lu Zhou was slightly stunned, and then smiled.

"The stage is as big as the heart, and it doesn't make any difference because of where I am." He didn't look back, he raised his hand and waved it casually, "There will be a period later!" ”

Without stopping his steps forward, he threw down the words, and he disappeared into the crowd.

Staring in the direction of the entrance to the airport, Molina fell silent and did not speak for a long time.

In the distance, the sky streaked across a silvery white and disappeared into the horizon.

"How big the heart is, how big the stage is...... Is it? ”

Repeating this sentence thoughtfully, she felt inexplicably a little empty in her heart.

Shaking her head, throwing the feeling behind her, she turned and walked to her car.

At this time, a man dressed very fancyly walked over with a sunny smile on his face and skillfully accosted her.

"Hey, beauty, I don't know the way here, can you give me a ride?"

"Make your next Uber."

Glancing at him lightly, Molina threw down the words, shook off the car door, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

Looking blankly at the dusty taillights, the man stood there for a long time.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses and give him a middle finger at the taillight.

"Shet ......"

……

After flying after the sun for more than ten or twenty hours, the plane finally landed at the airport in Shanghai.

Without stopping, Lu Zhou continued to the west, heading straight to Jiangcheng, the largest construction site in Hubei Province.

Jiangcheng International Airport.

After getting off the plane, Lu Zhou dragged his suitcase and was about to go to the subway to transfer to the high-speed rail station, but he was blocked before he could take two steps.

I saw a beautiful young lady and a man in a suit who looked like an assistant, and quickly caught up with him after he left the boarding gate.

"Hello, please wait a minute, I'm Wu Ping, the program planner of Suzhou Provincial TV Station, are you Lu Zhou?"

As soon as he heard the Suzhou Provincial TV Station, Lu Zhou was stunned at first, and then subconsciously glanced at the sign next to him.

I didn't take the wrong flight, this is Jiangcheng International Airport......

Wait, has the news that I proved the twin prime conjecture spread to China?

The paper hasn't been officially published yet......

Glancing at the reporter's young lady suspiciously, Lu Zhou asked cautiously.

"What's the matter?"

Wu Ping showed a marked smile on her face, and said with a smile: "That's the case, my station recently has a program called the strongest student bully, I don't know if you have heard of it?" ”

It turned out that it was not a matter of twin prime conjectures......

Losing interest, Lu Zhou shook his head: "No." ”

He has not watched TV for many years, where will he know what shows have been popular recently.

There are only three who have a slight impression, running man, fast camping, and looking for dad.

That's because Huang Xiaobei, a classmate in the dormitory, likes to watch variety shows and often plays them in the dormitory, so he stood behind and watched a little bit.

Ms. Wu Ping's expression was subtle and a little embarrassed, she coughed dryly, and continued to bloom a charming smile on her face: "That's the case, this strongest student is a very popular program on our station recently, the rules are that the students from the fields of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology form six teams according to their nationality, each team of four people, to determine the strongest team among them!" We understand that you have demonstrated the world-class mathematical problem Zhou's conjecture, and we wonder if you would like to represent ......"

"Not interested." Lu Zhou shook his head and left.

The reporter's sister was in a hurry and hurriedly stopped him.

"Eh, wait a minute, there's an appearance fee."

Lu Zhou stopped: "How much?" ”

Wu Ping had a charming smile on her face.

"Fifty thousand."

“……”

Lu Zhou was speechless, turned around and left.

"When I didn't ask."
