As the organizer, the Xia Guo Mathematics Association has done a very good job in service.

Accommodation is arranged in a five-star hotel, with two people in a room.

Ye Fei is in a room with Yuan Zhengsong, Xu Wen and Zhou Lin in a room, Academician Wei and another academician Xia Guo in a room, and the rooms of the five people are next to each other, which is also very convenient to move around.

Wait until the five of them enter the room and pack their luggage.

Academician Wei called several people to the room where Ye Fei was.

Five people gathered together, some sitting on the edge of the bed, some on the chair.

Academician Wei looked at a few people: "We are not early or late, there are more than a dozen rooms near us on this floor, all of them are Xia Kingdom scholars, you can communicate with them." ”

"It's not only a great way to make connections, but also to exchange academic questions."

Ye Fei and the four of them all nodded, agreeing with Academician Wei's statement.

In academia, you must not do it behind closed doors, this is a big taboo.

The painful lesson of closing the country should be engraved in the blood and unforgettable as a Xia country.

If you don't communicate with others about academic issues for a long time, you may fall behind the world in a few years.

Academician Wei said: "There are many foreign scholars here, you can also communicate with them, but remember ......"

Academician Wei said solemnly: "Some knowledge cannot be exchanged, for example, some of you are doing technical research, and the scientific and technological content must not be leaked." ”

Mathematicians don't just do theoretical research, they also do applied research.

For example, Ye Fei has done some experiments.

And Xu Wen and the others must have done experiments.

It is also unrealistic to say that we have been doing theories and not applications.

Very rare in the entire scientific community.

"If it leaks out, you know the consequences, and this is not only your personal loss, but also the country's loss."

"There are too many foreigners here, and they are all smart people, and you can't guarantee whether some people have ulterior motives."

"In a place like this, where there are many foreigners, I often encounter people who talk to you and get caught up unconsciously."

"By the time you react, you'll regret it."

"So, when communicating with these foreigners, you must mention the spirit of twelve."

Zhou Lin muttered: "It's so dangerous, if we don't communicate with them, we only communicate with the scholars of the Xia Kingdom." ”

"What are you talking nonsense?" Academician Wei glared at him fiercely and said, "If you don't communicate with them, how do you know their academic achievements and where they have been researched?" ”

"How do you know about new academic knowledge in the world?"

"Can't you think about it? If they can take our words, can't we take their words? ”

"Between us and them, we are both rivals and friends, both a game and a cooperation."

"You should understand these truths!"

Ye Fei and the four nodded, they were all smart people and understood Academician Wei's words.

They said, "Yes! ”

"It's good that you understand." Academician Wei said: "Also, don't leak the content of the academic report you made on stage. ”

"Although the papers you need to do academic reports have been posted on Arxiv, the content of the academic report is definitely different from that on Arxiv."

The crowd nodded, yes, indeed.

Arxiv is only the first draft, and the final draft is in their heads.

In addition, there is a huge gap between the content of the final draft and the first draft.

It can even be said that the similarity is not even a third.

The first draft is equivalent to an outline, and the final draft is the specific content.

"If you leak it out, if you are inspired by them."

"Although there is no loss to the country, there is a loss to you personally."

"If you come to the stage to make an academic report later, if the content is the same, I don't think you will be able to do an academic report."

Think about it, the content of the academic report is similar to that made by others, the person who does it first is fine, and the person who does it later will think that he is plagiarism.

At that time, the audience will let the person who did it roll down, and the scene is very embarrassing.

Zhou Lin said with a smile: "Academician Wei, don't worry, we know this, how can we leak the content of the academic report to them." ”

"Even if they try to trick us, we don't say anything about the academic report."

"If only you knew."

Academician Wei saw that everyone looked very nervous, and said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, take it easy, this is not the Olympics, there is no competition scoring and the like, you may encounter a crash on the subject of the academic report, but this probability is very low." ”

"Therefore, your opponent is not someone else, but yourselves."

"As long as you overcome yourself, you will win."

Xu Wen said with a smile: "Academician Wei, we may not crash on the topic of the academic report, but someone may crash." ”

"Huh?" Academician Wei said suspiciously: "Who?" ”

"Ye Fei!" Xu Wen smiled: "He may collide with James Maynard's son, Amata Maynard, on the subject of an academic report." ”

Academician Wei was surprised: "Is it James Maynard, the winner of the 2022 Fields Medal?" ”

"Yes!"

Academician Wei frowned and asked, "His son, what's his name?" ”

"Amatha Maynard!" Xu Wendao.

"Yes, Amatha Maynard." Academician Wei said: "How is his ability? ”

Xu Wendao: "The ability is very strong. ”

"At the age of 18, he graduated from Cambridge University with a doctorate in mathematics, and at the age of 19 he proved the conjecture of the coefficient of the factor, at the age of 20 he proved the minimum interval of prime numbers, at the age of 21 he proved the maximum interval of prime numbers, at the age of 24 he proved the Littlewood conjecture of the approximation of the diophantine diagram, and at the age of 26 he proved the Lehmer conjecture of the discrete algebra."

These conjectures, except for the factor coefficient conjecture, are not less difficult than the continuum hypothesis that Ye Fei has proved.

The rest of the conjectures are more difficult than the continuum hypothesis.

"At the age of 27, he made a significant contribution to the BSD conjecture of elliptic curves."

Again, this is a difficult conundrum, more difficult than all of Amata's previous conundrums.

Because the BSD conjecture is one of the eight conjectures of mathematics.

Although he did not directly prove the BSD conjecture.

However, the BSD conjecture of elliptic curves is of great help to the BSD conjecture.

The difficult problems that are related to the eight conjectures are very difficult.

As you can imagine, the difficulty of the BSD conjecture of elliptic curves.

Of course, Armatta did not prove the BSD conjecture of elliptic curves.

If he can prove it, he could win a Fields Medal.

But even so, he made a significant contribution to the BSD conjecture of elliptic curves.

It's also very powerful.

Now at the age of 28, he is the youngest full professor of mathematics at the University of Cambridge.

He is also an intermediate fellow at the University of Cambridge Centre for Mathematics.

"Probably two years later, I'll be promoted to senior researcher."

Fellows are divided into intern researchers, assistant researchers, associate researchers, and researchers.

And in these four levels, they are all divided into beginner, intermediate and advanced.

Junior researchers are equivalent to fourth-level professors, intermediate researchers are equivalent to third-level professors, and senior researchers are equivalent to second-level professors.

At a higher level, an academician, or fellow, is equivalent to a first-class professor.

If it is a first-class professor who has not obtained an academician or fellowship.

In the Mathematics Center, it is generally at the level of deputy director.

If it is an academician or fellow, it is generally at the director level.

Everyone was shocked to hear it, judging from Amata Maynard's resume, he is indeed very strong.

He is a conjecture almost a year, and he is also an intermediate fellow at the Centre for Mathematics at the University of Cambridge.

The University of Cambridge Centre for Mathematics is one of the best centres for mathematics in the world.

The only math centers that rival it are the MIT Math Center, the Harvard Math Center, and the Princeton Math Center.

Intermediate researchers in the best mathematics centers in the world are very strong.

In terms of ability, it is only one level away from first-class professors and only two levels away from academicians.

Looking at the world's young mathematicians, he is one of the top ones.

"And the content he is studying now is exactly the same as Ye Fei's."

"Not so long ago a paper on the Gaussian conjecture was hung on Arxiv."

"And Ye Fei also hung a paper on the Gaussian number conjecture on Arxiv not long ago."

"So, I said the two of them were likely to crash on the subject of the academic presentation."

If you think about it with your ass, Amata Maynard hung a paper on the Gaussian conjecture on Arrive not long ago.

Then it is very likely that the academic report at this international conference of young mathematicians will do something about the Gaussian conjecture of class numbers.

And Ye Fei also made content on the conjecture of Gaussian class numbers in the academic report.

So the two collided on the subject.

As long as there is a collision on the topic, the scholars present will be asked to compare the academic reports of the two.

If one side is weak and the other is strong, it is easy to find the gap between the two by comparison.

At this time, it is who is weak and who is embarrassed.

Moreover, this is an international conference, facing young mathematicians from all over the world.

They represent the country and the individual, and ability is one thing, but more importantly, face.

Academician Wei looked at Ye Fei and said worriedly: "Ye Fei, are you sure?" ”

Ye Fei smiled: "Academician Wei, don't worry, I can do it." ”

How can a man say no, and if he can't, otherwise you won't be a man.

Academician Wei was relieved: "Even if you can't compare, it's okay, there are too many excellent people in this world, and there are always people who are better than you." ”

"Moreover, you are several years younger than Armata's, and in a few years, you may be better than him."

Of course, this is a word of comfort.

Armatta is only 28 this year, Ye Fei is 24 this year, and the difference between the two is only four years old.

Four years may have passed with just one difficult problem.

For academics, four years is almost negligible.

Looking at Ye Fei's resume again, the problems proved by Ye Fei are not equal to the number of Armata.

Therefore, four years later, it is almost impossible for Ye Fei to compare with Amata.

Ye Fei smiled: "Academician Wei, you don't need to comfort me, I know how many pounds and taels I have, Armatta is very good, but I don't think I'm bad." ”

Academician Wei smiled: "It's good that you know, don't put too much pressure on yourself." ”

"This is a mathematics conference, we don't need the Olympic spirit, the mathematics conference is to show our own achievements, not to fight with others."

After speaking, Academician Wei looked at the rest of the people and said, "You guys have a good rest first, and you can also go and communicate with others." ”

"But don't get too busy, get ready for tomorrow's International Congress of Young Mathematicians."

"You're going to listen to the academic presentations for ten days, and it's a tough battle."

"Okay, Academician Wei."

After Academician Wei finished speaking, he stood up and left the room.

He also has his own things to do.

The International Conference of Young Mathematicians not only came to many well-known young mathematicians, but also many academicians and fellows.

He's also going to talk to these people about academic issues.

After Academician Wei left, Xu Wen and Zhou Lin left Ye Fei's room.

Ye Fei turned on the computer and looked at the draft of the academic report he had prepared.

He's still a little stressed about Armata.

If the two really collide at that time, he doesn't know who will kill the deer.

"I can do it!" Ye Fei secretly cheered for himself.

Ye Fei has always been very confident in his abilities since he obtained the system.

Perhaps the number of problems he proves is not comparable to that of Armata.

But quantity can't be compared, let's compare quality.

Amata room!

At this time, Armatta was reviewing the contents of his academic report, for which he was ready to make a splash and completely confirm his status among the young mathematicians in the world.

Amata has always wanted to be free from her father's influence.

Because he is the son of James Maynard, many people have had high hopes for him since he was born, hoping that he will become a top international mathematician in the future.

So, when he went out, others mentioned Amata. Maynard, will say that it is James. Maynard's son.

Instead of saying he's Amata. Maynard.

This kind of behavior Amata didn't like.

He hoped that when he went out in the future, everyone would know him and everyone would know him, not his father.

Therefore, after graduating, he did not follow his father, but studied on his own, wanting to make a career in the world of mathematics alone.

Hill walked in from the outside.

Hill, who was Armata's roommate, pulled over a chair, sat down next to Armata, and said, "Amata, I heard some news, the subject of your academic report this time and some people collided. ”

"Crash?" Amata glanced at her roommate suspiciously, and asked with interest, "With whom?" ”

"Crash with two people." Amata said: "They are Balats Hawkins, who graduated with a doctorate in mathematics from Princeton, and Ye Fei, who graduated with a doctorate in mathematics from Middle Lake University. ”

"Ye Fei, you don't have to care, but you must pay attention to this Balats Hawkins, his ability is very strong."

His teacher was the 2002 Fields Medal winner, Vladimir Vvotsky of Northern Russia.

"Balatz Hawkins has proved the transcendence of Euler's constant, the complete number problem, and the existence of the power-order projective plane of non-prime numbers, which has made great contributions to Zhou's conjecture and Riemann's conjecture."

On the resume, Balats Hawkins' ability is not weaker than Armata's.

"And I heard that his academic report this time is also a paper on Gaussian conjecture."

Amata's heart was also a little heavy when he heard this, and he said, "Even if you know what the other party's ability is, everything that should be prepared is ready." ”

"Even if his academic report is better than mine, I can't change the content of the academic report now!"

"That's right!" Hill said: "But I believe that you will be able to defeat the other side." ”

"Hopefully!" Amata Road.

Amata thought that he was sure of this International Conference of Young Mathematicians, but he didn't expect to jump out of the variable of Barats Hawkins.

If you encounter it, you will encounter it, there are people here whose ability is not weaker than their own, which in the eyes of others, there must be a competition between them.

But two people of similar strength, no one knows who will kill the deer.
