"Any questions?"

Professor Deligne looked at the staff member.

"No ......"

The staff member smiled sheepishly and stepped aside.

Just kidding, this big guy spoke, how dare he have an opinion.

So far, there are only 13 mathematicians in the world who can win both the Fields Medal and the Wolf Medal, and on this basis, there are only two mathematicians in the world who have won both the Creyford Prize, one is Deligne and the other is Yau Chengtong.

Even if the president of the International Mathematical Union is here, he has to give face to this big guy. Not to mention an ordinary staff member of their Federal Mathematical Society.

If he noticed what was happening later, Lu Zhou would definitely say thank you politely, but at this moment, he didn't pay attention to his back at all, and he didn't even hear the reminder from the staff.

Looking at the four whiteboards that were full of writing, he stopped writing.

The results of the past four days have almost come to an end.

The rest of the part needs to be solved by him on the spot.

There is still half an hour left to enlighten the time.

He was so thoroughly in the state that he had completely forgotten where he was.

Completely forgot about the audience.

Completely forgot about the eyes that were staring at his back.

On this stage, where everyone can speak freely regardless of borders, skin color, or status, Lu Zhou looked at the lines of calculations on the whiteboard, and his mood was beyond my calmness.

He.

Pen.

【S（α）=Σane（nα）； M，N∈ζ……】

Professor Deligne, who had been thinking about the whiteboard with a sharp gaze, suddenly opened his mouth and asked his old friend next to him, "Do you think he can succeed?" ”

Keeping an eye on the equation on the whiteboard, Professor Zelberg smiled, "It's hard to say, but I think we can look forward to it." Mathematics itself is the field of genius, and 70 percent of the outstanding results are born in young talents under the age of forty-five. ”

"That's why you switched to string theory?" Deligne stared at the equation on the whiteboard, the tip of his pen resting on the notepad as if glued there.

"Hehe," Professor Zelberg smiled, and after a moment, he said, "maybe?" ”

The other side of the lecture hall.

Wei Wen's eyes remained motionless on the whiteboard, looking at the competitor in his mind, standing on that stage, challenging world-class problems. And that line of steps has become more and more beyond the scope of his understanding, and even now at this step, he is reluctant to even keep up with this person's thinking.

Finally, he couldn't help but whisper.

"Professor."

Staring at the whiteboard motionlessly, Professor Wang Xiping smiled: "What's wrong?" ”

"What do you think...... Will he succeed? ”

After thinking about this question seriously for a while, Professor Wang Xiping shook his head, "It's hard to say, the field of number theory tests talent more than any branch of mathematics, and if he succeeds, it will be a good story to spread out." ”

Wei Wen immediately asked, "What if he fails?" ”

Professor Wang Xiping thought for a while: "...... If he fails, he could contract all the mathematicians at Princeton for all the laughs of the year. ”

There is also the ridicule and slander of those unscrupulous media at home and abroad, which can be imagined. For example, an arrogant and arrogant fool tried to challenge world-class mathematical conjectures at an academic conference, and was finally knocked out of the stage...... While it is this spirit of courage to challenge that is needed for scientific research, one should never expect much social responsibility from media professionals.

Thinking of this, the old gentleman couldn't help but sigh while sweating for him in his heart.

It's better to be young......

This kind of courage and this kind of aggressiveness can only appear in young people.

At his age, there are so many things to worry about.

The older you get, the more you seek stability, and the more you seek stability, the more difficult it is to make progress.

It's not just a matter of inspiration, it's not just a matter of declining concentration and memory due to aging.

It is difficult for a mathematics professor under the traditional system to make up his mind to challenge a big topic such as a certain conjecture, because if three or five years of energy is invested, the result is likely to be nothing, and in the end, he will not be able to make a difference and pass the assessment.

In contrast, Lu Zhou, as an undergraduate, is outside the system, has no academic pressure, no worries about various meetings and entertainment, and can explore without distractions with a pure curiosity, and finally achieve significant results under the inspiration......

Even if he fails, he can afford to lose.

If he succeeds......

Probably, among the new generation of young talents, the only one who can surpass him is Peter Schulz, the youngest W3 professor in Germany in his twenties, who proposed the "P.S theory" and built a new mathematical framework, and is regarded as the successor of Grothendieck.

Or, at least, this is the kind of people.

The 18-year Fields Medal is hard to say, Schultz, who has already achieved numerous results in algebraic geometry, will be his biggest contender, as well as Brendle, also from Germany. However, this year's Ramanujan Prize and the 17-year Cole Prize (the highest award in the field of number theory) can be expected with the weight of the twin prime conjecture.

Looking at the back on the podium, Mr. Wang's eyes were full of approval.

Wei Wen, who was sitting next to him, didn't say a word, looking at the podium with a complicated expression, and didn't know what he was thinking......

Stage.

The fifth whiteboard is full.

Thirty minutes of inspiration was over five minutes ago.

But at this point, there is no suspense about the outcome of the outcome.

Looking at the sixth whiteboard dragged by the staff, Lu Zhou slowly exhaled the turbidity in his chest.

His lips moved slightly, and he whispered to the five whiteboards that were full of writing.

"The six-sided dice dropped by God, there is a seventh possibility, because the twisted dice hit the ground on both sides."

"Mr. Hilbert's proof of topology for the infinity of prime numbers is probably inspired by this layer of inspiration......"

Face the new whiteboard.

He raised his right hand again.

The tip of the pen in his hand was like an inch of green light, slashing towards the dying dragon in front of the treasure!

[S(2)-(logkx)S(1)>0 is valid for K≥2, and the array H=...... is acceptable]

【……】

Therefore, there are an infinite number of twin prime pairs. 】

Offstage.

His squinted eyes widened slightly, and the corners of Professor Deligne's mouth tensed, and a smile suddenly unfolded.

Professor Zelberg, who was sitting next to him, smiled: "When I used topological methods to conduct supplementary research on the sieve theory, I thought that my work might provide ideas for future generations to solve the Goldbach conjecture, but I never thought that this sword would be used to cut the K=1 form of the Polygnac conjecture. It seems that he has responded to our expectations. ”

Deligne put down the pen in his hand, took off his glasses, and pinched the slightly sore corners of his eyes.

Only one word was spoken, in his native language.

"Yes."

The audience was quiet.

One person on the stage.

As the last line of the equation was written, Lu Zhou took two steps back, and finally looked at the six whiteboards lined up in front of him.

The venue behind him was so quiet that he could even hear his own heartbeat.

Should...... No problem.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Zhou turned around and turned his back to his answer sheet, facing the audience under the podium who were waiting with bated breath.

In an affirmative tone, he said.

"Twin prime pairs are infinite, and we have taken another big step towards the Polliniac conjecture."

"After a little delay, my proof is over."

Time and space have changed at this moment, as if returning to the examination room, the moment when the pen was stopped and the paper was handed in.

I have mixed feelings in my heart.

Listening to the sound of his heartbeat, Lu Zhou gently rested the marker pen in his hand on the podium.

Crowds of people under the lights.

At this moment, everyone on the scene is a witness and a marker.

This answer sheet is aimed at the whole world.

Facing the audience, Lu Zhou bowed slightly.

Turn around.

Walk towards the silent stage.
