The atmosphere in the office of the government affairs building became a little complicated for a while.

After Wang Hao finished his acceptance speech, the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Applaud?

What is there to applaud such a false acceptance speech?

Agitated?

Even the winners are not excited, who are they excited about?

Opposite side.

At the opening ceremony of the International Congress of Mathematicians, the atmosphere was even more complicated than the office of the government affairs building.

Claudio Prochesi sat in the first row, seeing Wang Hao's expression on the screen, coupled with that flat tone, he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, and he regretted the live broadcast communication a little.

This idea is indeed good, but Wang Hao's acceptance speech is too fake, so fake that people can see it at a glance.

In his eyes, he didn't care at all, and it was almost written directly on his face, which also caused the atmosphere at the scene to become a little depressing.

The mathematicians on the scene were much more complicated than the people in the government affairs building.

They just felt devastated.

Look!

Fields!

This award represents the highest achievement in the field of mathematics, and most of them would not have won it if they wanted to, but the winners framed on the screen obviously didn't care at all.

Claudio Prochesi also had the same complicated feelings, but as one of the leaders of the executive committee of the International Mathematical Society, he didn't have time to experience the complicated feelings, noticed Wang Haochao's movements watching from the side, and hurriedly returned to the stage.

The signal was quickly cut off.

At this time, the host had already reacted, and in the face of the scene that was so calm that there was no applause at all, he quickly mobilized the atmosphere and shouted, "Congratulations to Dr. Wang Hao for winning Fields, then let's move on to the next link." ”

"Gauss Prize!"

He shouted hard, then exhaled softly.

This paragraph has finally passed!

……

For many domestic media, after Wang Hao received the Fields Medal, the mathematicians' conference was over.

The reason why they pay attention to the International Congress of Mathematicians is mainly because Wang Hao will get Fields, and after it was determined that Wang Hao won the award, there were many reports in public opinion.

That's pretty remarkable.

Wang Hao became the first domestic scholar to win Fields, and also became the youngest Fields winner in history, and he set two records by himself.

A large number of reports were followed by a lot of discussions, but the focus of the discussion was not the award, but Wang Hao's indifference, "Professor Wang Hao has known about the award for a long time, but he doesn't seem to be excited." ”

"Maybe it's because you're not there?"

"That acceptance speech was so fake, I laughed when I heard it, he had Fields' medal around his neck, and he actually said that he just knew about the award?"

"Could it be that Fields' staff passed through the magic array and arrived in Xihai City in an instant to present him with an award?"

"It's hilarious!"

"He said he was very excited, I didn't see it at all, I guess it was just a scene."

This is a common feeling among everyone.

At the same time, many media reporters also went to Xihai University for interviews.

Most media interviews are dismissed, but exclusive interviews with CCTV reporters are still acceptable, because the relevant interviews will appear in prime-time TV news reports.

Wang Hao also took time out to be interviewed, he is a positive publicity figure, and he also cares a lot about his image.

The interview with the CCTV reporter was very professional, and it was directly brought by a column group.

A sweet-looking female reporter sat face-to-face with Wang Hao, as if chatting, "Professor Wang, you obtained Fields with your research in the field of number theory and partial differential equations, both of which cover a large range, and you have a lot of achievements in both fields, so can you tell me what you think your best research is?" ”

"NS equation." Wang Hao said the answer without hesitation.

"Why? In the field of number theory, the proof of Goldbach's conjecture is not as good as the NS equation? ”

"Of course."

Wang Hao explained, "The Goldbach conjecture is just a mathematical problem and has no practical significance, while the NS equation is of great significance in application, it is not only a mathematical problem, but also has many related fields." ”

Of course, he thinks that the best research is the NS equation, because the study of the NS equation is not one result, but five to be exact.

In the end, two of the results were used to solve the problem, and one of the results of seeking an approximate solution was published in the top journal, and the other two achievements with the highest application value were archived and entered the ranks of confidentiality.

These are things that cannot be said to the public.

The reporter continued to ask, "How is you feeling about winning the Fields Medal?" ”

"I'm excited." Wang Hao said.

The reporter pursed his lips, suddenly blinked playfully, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Professor Wang, can you ask a question that may not be easy to answer?" ”

"You ask, right?"

Wang Hao felt that there was nothing to say except for confidential research, and it was impossible for reporters to ask about confidential research.

The reporter asked, "Now you can look at the public opinion on the Internet, many people think that when you say the acceptance speech, you are not excited, nor nervous, it can be said that it is very calm, and it makes people feel as if they can't wait to finish talking and leaving." ”

"Excuse me, was that how you were feeling at the time?"

"Uh~~"

Wang Hao didn't expect the reporter to ask so bluntly, because he was too involved in the research, he didn't particularly care about the award ceremony.

He thought about it, shook his head, and said, "Let's be honest, it's really not very exciting, it feels very flat, maybe it's because you know it early?" ”

The reporter nodded and asked suspiciously, "That's the Fields Medal, the highest award in mathematics." We don't quite understand your calm, can you explain? ”

Wang Hao was silent for a while, he thought for a while and asked, "You know Einstein, right?" ”

"Of course."

While the reporter nodded affirmatively, there was a feeling that his IQ was despised, how could he not know Einstein if he was also a top student in journalism?

Wang Hao continued to ask, "Then do you know that Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics?" ”

"This ...... Know. The reporter hesitated and continued to nod.

"Can you tell him what he did and won the Nobel Prize in Physics?"

“……”

This time the reporter couldn't say.

She thought about it carefully and felt that her IQ was despised, and there was a certain reason.

Albert Einstein is one of the most famous physicists in human history, why didn't he even know why he won the Nobel Prize in Physics?

Wang Hao said, "It's not surprising that you don't know, because many, many people don't know." I'll give you a science here, Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on the photon hypothesis, and he used the photon hypothesis to successfully explain the photoelectric effect. ”

"Of course, it doesn't matter."

"Einstein has many achievements, including the theory of relativity, including the mass-energy equation, and each of his studies can be said to be of great significance to the development of human science and technology and to mankind's understanding of the universe."

"But if you think about it, if Einstein was still alive and the Nobel Committee decided to award him a second Nobel Physicist, do you think he would be very excited?"

"This ......"

The reporter thought about it carefully, there is really nothing to be excited about, it has reached that level, do you still care about a Nobel Prize in physics?

She looked at Wang Hao again, and suddenly understood.

Wang Hao's several achievements are enough to get Fields, and it is natural for him to get Fields.

Even if he didn't get Fields, no one could deny his work, and he didn't need an international award to recognize his research.

Wang Hao continued, "I am not comparing myself to Einstein, but I am just explaining the reason why I am calm, because even if I don't win an award, my research is there, and I don't need to rely on awards to affirm it." ”

"Sometimes, I'm excited."

"For example, if I go to a marathon, even if it's a city marathon, a college marathon, if I can win the championship, I will be very excited."

"That kind of award is the recognition of me."

The reporter was silent for a moment and asked curiously, "Will you go to the marathon?" ”

“…… Maybe. ”

Wang Hao pursed his lips vigorously.

……

Fields' award is over, but the International Congress of Mathematicians is not.

Wang Hao said in advance that he would make a report, but he didn't know what to do because he was too busy with work and didn't make any preparations, and in addition, he didn't have any new research results recently.

If it was to do the original results report, it would not make much sense to him.

He communicated with Claudio Prochesi, and Prochesi felt a little incomprehensible, Wang Hao had so many big achievements in his hands, and it would be very good to take out some corners and corners to make a report.

"You can choose partial differential equations or number theory, you can do both, and you can even give presentations, and I'm sure a lot of people are interested in what you're working on." ”

The last sentence reminded Wang Hao.

Because the report is made through a video link, there will definitely be a lot of people watching it, and you may be able to gain a lot of inspiration.

He couldn't wait to think about it.

On the same day, he explained the content of the report to be made, "the study of new geometries." ”

A new type of geometry?

Prochesi was a little surprised to see the title of the report, but because Wang Hao did not submit specific content, he did not know what the new geometry was talking about.

Wang Hao has been working with Lin Bohan on new geometry research.

The new geometry is aimed at the microscopic morphology of the atomic structure of a monodielectric metal conductor, and the geometry is used to solve the problem of microscopic morphology.

This research is at the heart of the 'superconducting annihilation topology', or can be understood as the 'first step' to solve the problem.

For metal conductors, the essence of electric current is the movement of electrons, and the essence of temperature is the vibration of atoms, but the reality is much more complicated.

Even if it is a mono-dielectric metal conductor, when energized, there are not only electrons and atoms inside, but also the microscopic movement is very complex.

Wang Hao's latest research suggests that a microscopic form will form inside the metal in a conductive state.

This microscopic form is directly related to the generation of electromagnetic force, and at the same time, there is a 'force field' to resist the annihilation force, and when the temperature drops to a certain level, it means that the tremor of the atom is reduced to a certain level, and the microscopic form can no longer be maintained, and it will be crushed and broken by the annihilation force, thus forming a special superconducting state and stimulating the generation of the AC gravity field.

The alternating gravity field is just one manifestation of microscopic morphological fragmentation.

But regardless of the specific principle, they are now using geometry to study microscopic forms.

A mono-dielectric metal conductor has only one kind of atom inside, and the microscopic form formed is naturally the simplest.

Soon.

The time came the next morning, and Wang Hao's report was scheduled for the second session in the morning.

This time period is the best.

After the first session of the 'warm-up', the scholars in the lecture hall have already entered the state, and there will be many people listening carefully to the second session.

Others also knew that Wang Hao was going to make a report, and the second lecture hall was already crowded.

Now Wang Hao's appeal is too great.

He is the number one mathematician in the world, because he has achieved top results in both the fields of number theory and partial differential equations, and he is only 26 years old, not yet at the peak of recognized scientific research (30 to 40 years old), and there may be many achievements in the future.

When they knew that Wang Hao was going to make a work report, many people suddenly became more interested, and they all wanted to know what kind of research Wang Hao was doing.

This time it was still in the office of the government affairs building, but the background was changed to a whiteboard.

Because it is a video connection, it is difficult for the mathematicians in the lecture hall to read some content on it, but fortunately, Wang Hao is not doing a research report, he is just doing a work report, but occasionally he needs the help of a whiteboard.

Wang Hao appeared in front of the camera, and he smiled at the camera.

At this time, it was obvious that his mental state was completely different from when he received the award yesterday, and his eyes even revealed anticipation and excitement.

He said, "Thank you, Mr. Prochesi, for inviting me to give a short work report, which is only twenty minutes, and will not delay you for too long. ”

The conference hall was silent.

Everyone looked at Wang Hao in the screen lens and wanted to know what kind of report he was going to make.

Is it a partial differential equation?

Or number theory?

At the same time, there are many scholars who have not participated in the International Congress of Mathematicians, and they are also paying attention to Wang Hao's report through the live webcast.

Under everyone's attention, Wang Hao said, "I am doing research on geometry, and my colleague Lin Bohan and I have studied a new type of geometry together. ”

"We've got some of it, but we haven't named it yet, so I'll call it a new type of geometry."

"This new type of geometry must first satisfy the following axioms, one is that all straight lines on the graph intersect."

"The second is that in its topological phase transition form, all straight lines do not intersect."

"Let's make the ...... first"

Wang Hao said carefully.

Everyone was listening attentively, and everyone was amazed.

Wang Hao's report was very unexpected, he had a lot of achievements in the field of number theory and partial differential equations, and others took it for granted that he would do research in these two directions.

Outcome......

Geometry? A new type of geometry?

This has little to do with number theory and partial differential equations, and can be said to be completely different fields.

However, the new type of geometry mentioned by Wang Hao is indeed somewhat attractive, and it is very difficult to shape a new type of geometry.

Geometry, especially the complex geometry problems involved, can become very difficult to understand.

This is true for Riemannian geometry, Euclidean geometry, and Roche geometry.

One problem is that all new geometry studies have a purpose, not to say that they rely on imagination to make a new definition of geometry.

There is no point in working like that.

Wang Hao spoke for more than ten minutes in a row, and he roughly finished talking about his work results, and the people at the venue were also very patient listening, and they found that Wang Hao's results were very good, and he was able to study a new type of geometry to this extent.

If we can continue to improve and add more propositions to form a rigorous axiom system, it may be possible to satisfy harmony, completeness and independence between various axioms.

It's a long process.

It would be great to be able to complete the study, and it would be equivalent to adding a new discipline to geometry, like Riemannian geometry and Euclidean geometry.

But what's the use?

When all the presentations were over, a scholar in the front row asked through the moderator, "Dr. Wang Hao, can you tell us what your new geometric research is aimed at?" ”

Wang Hao smiled lightly and replied, "I'm going to use it to explain the electromagnetic force." ”

"Hula~~"

One sentence made the scene boil suddenly.
