Chapter 6: Hawking's Last Words

Although it is a basic equation, Ouyang's calculus does not progress smoothly in the algebraic formula C=2πr.

Ouyang's calculation speed has just reached the level of a scholar of 10 times/second, while the minimum requirement for the calculation speed of the circumference equation is more than 15 times/second!

In other words, Ouyang must improve his calculation speed in order to successfully calculate this equation.

In Teacher Meng Jiang's bedroom, Ouyang was immersed in calculations and didn't even go to class!

Meng Jiang is a teacher, so naturally he can't skip class, so during the day, Ouyang is alone in the dormitory, Ouyang forgets the passage of time and calculates wildly, and it is not until the evening that Teacher Meng comes back and brings some food for Ouyang.

A day like this is a week!

Surprisingly, Ouyang's progress was very fast, and it only took him a week to skillfully calculate the equation for the circumference of a circle!

Meng Jiang also smiled from ear to ear when he saw this!

"Ouyang, I really didn't see the wrong person, your qualifications are indeed very good!"

Teacher Meng exclaimed, Ouyang was not proud.

"Although I have been able to calculate this equation, but when calculating, I found that with my own calculation speed, I can not give full play to the power of this equation, if my calculation speed can reach 50 times per second, I believe that I will be able to deduce the equation of the circumference perfectly!"

"There's no need to rush, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, you need to take it step by step! You've just become an academic, and the goal of 50 beats per second is a little too far for you. Meng Jiang waved his hand and changed the topic again, "Ouyang, are you interested in joining the student union?" ”

"Student Council?" Ouyang was a little stunned.

"Yes." Meng Jiang nodded, "The student union will often find some freshmen with good qualifications to join, and with your calculation ability, you will probably be targeted by the student union." ”

"However, I have no intention of joining the student union."

Ouyang refused, now he had to focus on calculus, and he didn't want to waste time in the student union.

Since everyone has their own ambitions, Meng Jiang no longer persuades.

Ouyang returned the notebook with the equation of the circumference to Mr. Meng, because he already knew the algorithm of this equation by heart, and he no longer needed this notebook.

Looking at the notebook in his hand, Mr. Meng Jiang felt a lot of emotion.

"In fact, the last time I gave this notebook to someone else was many years ago!"

Teacher Meng Jiang began to tell the story, and Ouyang listened attentively.

"That's my nephew, because his parents are both high-level scholars, so when he was 13 years old, his parents let him learn calculus, and when he was 14 years old, he reached the level of arithmetic as a scholar, so his parents asked me to give him a simple equation."

"Became a scholar at the age of 14?"

Ouyang was a little surprised, because the laws of the Chinese Federation clearly stipulated that minors under the age of 18 could not learn calculus, and even if the parents of Mr. Meng's nephew were high-level scholars, they could not know the law and break the law.

Meng Jiang said again: "I know what you are wondering about, that nephew of mine is actually a victim of his parents' eagerness for quick success!" At that time, I objected to letting my nephew calculate the equation, but his parents were hard at it, so I reluctantly took the notebook to my nephew, who spent more than a month, and still did not succeed in the calculation, and in the process of calculating, his brain developed cerebral palsy! ”

"Cerebral palsy? That's a big deal! ”

Ouyang exclaimed, for scholars, cerebral palsy is fatal, and scholars with cerebral palsy can't calculate at all, just like waste people.

"It turns out that the federal law is correct, and the reason why minors are not allowed to learn calculus is to protect the seedlings of scholars, because if the brains of minors are not fully developed, it will be difficult to bear the burden if they blindly learn calculus. My nephew is still in bed, and his parents regret it, but unfortunately there is no regret medicine in the world. ”

Mr. Meng told himself about a human tragedy, and Ouyang listened to it and sympathized with the parties.

After telling the story, Teacher Meng suddenly asked on a whim, "Ouyang, do you know how the power system of scholars is constructed?" ”

Ouyang thought for a moment and replied, "It should be a scholar, a bachelor's, a master's, a doctor, or a postdoctor, right?" ”

"And after that?"

"Experts, professors."

"And then?"

"The molecular realm, the atomic realm."

Ouyang replied one by one, but these are all things that everyone in this world knows.

Meng Jiang sighed and said, "Ouyang, what you know is just a superficial phenomenon, in fact, the power system of scholars is built up little by little!"

In the early days when scholars gained strength through calculus, in order to measure the strength of power, the existing degree system was used to interpret power, which is the so-called "scholar, bachelor, master, doctor, and postdoctoral" five levels.

But later, scholars who were significantly stronger than postdoctoral fellows appeared, so there was such a rank as 'expert and professor'! Then, when World War II broke out, Einstein exerted his devastating power in World War II, and Einstein's realm was clearly one level higher than that of professor-level scholars, so there was a 'molecular realm' and 'atomic realm', such a hierarchy is just to commemorate the great Albert Einstein. ”

"And there are stories like this!"

Ouyang sighed, worthy of being a teacher in a university, Teacher Meng Jiang knows much more than himself!

Meng Jiang said: "Although the power system of scholars has been constructed, careful people will find that such a power system is not rigorous, and now, it is no longer possible to fully measure the power that scholars have!" Take Sir Steve Hawking as an example, his strength has clearly broken through the atomic realm, but the existing power system cannot explain how strong Hawking is? ”

From Mr. Meng Jiang's words, we can know that he thinks Hawking is better than Einstein, and he is very sure of this!

"Teacher Meng, is Hawking really that strong?"

Ouyang asked curiously, and Teacher Meng Jiang nodded.

"That's natural, and in fact Sir Steve Hawking has reached heights that no scholar in the world will never forget! It is precisely because of this that he sees things that others can't see, Ouyang, do you know the famous Hawking's last words? ”

"I've never heard of that."

Ouyang shook his head, and Teacher Meng said: "Don't blindly pursue power, otherwise the whole world will collapse - this is Sir Hawking's last words, and it is also his view of the world." ”
