Chapter 96: Zhang Yitang Wins the Wolf Prize in Mathematics

The adjustment of the research direction and the development of a research report by each group cannot be completed overnight.

The group leader should discuss the research direction with the team members, and then check the information and discuss the research method, which will take one month.

A month later, Ye Fei office!

Ye Fei sat at his desk, looking at the research reports sent by each group on the computer, Ye Fei made some revisions, and then sent the report back.

Then each group made another revision, and then sent it to Ye Fei, Ye Fei revised it again, and then sent it to each group.

There should be at least five back-and-forth between them.

Ye Fei divided the group into seven groups, namely the radiation equation group, the gravitational radiation system group, the entropy group, the gravitational collapse reduction group, the black hole entropy group, the total entropy group and the universe modeling group.

Each group researches differently but collaborates with each other.

After a month and a half, everything is ready for the study, after which the study begins.

Ye Fei looked at the research data from the new newspaper, and sighed in his heart: "As I thought before, the research speed is really very fast. ”

"At this rate, we can complete the research in two months!"

"After that, you can send the dark matter probe to the dark universe." Ye Fei's eyes lit up: "I can see the dark matter that the physics community has been exploring for a long time." ”

Ye Fei was full of curiosity about dark matter, and he wanted to know whether dark matter existed.

It is speculated that dark matter is found in every corner of the universe.

Such a magical thing, Ye Fei wanted to know what it was and what it did.

"By the way, the dark matter detector created by the Satellite Division based on my research should have been developed!"

Instantaneous shuttle technology has been successfully studied, and it was previously used to create an aircraft engine that allows the plane to fly from Kyoto to the magic capital in one minute.

And now it is the accelerator that has developed a dark matter detector based on instantaneous shuttle technology.

Of course, the teleportation technology is dedicated to the development of accelerators for dark matter detectors.

As a result, dark matter detectors are much faster than airplanes.

After Ye Fei finished speaking, he picked up the phone and called Director Yang of the Satellite Division, and the phone was quickly connected.

Ye Fei said: "Hey, Director Yang?" I'm Ye Fei! ”

"Academician Ye, is there something wrong?"

Director Yang was standing in the factory at the moment, watching many researchers operate machines to build dark matter detectors.

The dark matter detector is like a bird with wings.

In the middle is a cuboid with a very long square wing extending on each side.

Many machines flickering sparks operate on dark matter detectors.

Ye Feidao: "Director Yang, I want to ask if the dark matter detector has been manufactured?" ”

"I expect to have two or three months to succeed in research."

Director Yang said: "My side is also fast, and the dark matter detector can be successfully manufactured in another month."

When Ye Fei heard this, he felt a lot more relieved, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll just ask this, Director Yang, you are busy!" ”

After hanging up the phone, Ye Feixin said: "Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and the progress is the same as my estimated time." ”

"If all goes well, the research will be completed in August this year, and the dark matter detector can be launched in September."

"If my research is correct, then the lunar dark matter probe can enter the dark universe and then see dark matter."

Ye Fei's eyes lit up and said: "When the time comes, I will also know what this dark matter that has plagued the physics world for more than a hundred years is." ”

Dark matter was proposed in 1922 by astronomer Captan, who predicted that there might be an invisible and unknown substance in the universe, named dark matter.

Time is like flowing water, and it is the end of July in a blink of an eye!

A month ago, Ye Fei went to the Kyoto Satellite Division to check the dark matter detector that had been built.

Through machine detection, the dark matter detector was manufactured with a speed of Mach 6,000.

It is a hundred times the speed of an aircraft engine made with instantaneous shuttle technology.

Ye Fei predicted that due to the air resistance, the speed of the earth will drop a lot, and after entering space, this speed will increase a little, dozens of Mach faster.

Now wait for Ye Fei's black hole arrangement to be successfully studied, and the dark matter detector can be launched.

On this day, Ye Fei was busy in the laboratory.

At this time, the assistant came over and said, "Dean, Vice Dean Zhang is looking for you." ”

"Huh?" Ye Fei turned his head and looked at the assistant on the side suspiciously, and asked, "Did he say anything about me?" ”

Vice President Zhang is Zhang Yitang, Zhang Yitang rarely looks for Ye Fei when he is working, and usually looks for Ye Fei at dinner or after work at night.

The assistant shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know, but looking at Vice Dean Zhang's appearance, he seems to be very excited." ”

When Ye Fei heard this, he had some conjectures in his heart, but he was not very sure.

Ye Fei said: "Where is he?" ”

"In the lobby on the first floor!"

"Okay, I'll go down now."

Ye Fei looked at the researchers beside him and said, "You guys will think about what I just said." ”

"I'll go down and see Vice Dean Zhang, and I'll talk to you later."

"Okay, Dean!"

Ye Fei immediately stood up and walked out of the laboratory, taking the elevator to the lobby on the first floor.

After a while, Ye Fei walked out of the elevator and saw Zhang Yitang standing in the hall from a distance, as if he was very excited.

"Dean Zhang!" Ye Fei smiled: "I see you laughing there from afar, what makes you so happy!" ”

When Zhang Yitang saw Ye Fei, he walked towards Ye Fei quickly, and before he walked in front of Ye Fei, he said excitedly: "Dean Ye, I have won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics." ”

The Wolf Prize in Mathematics is one of the four major awards in mathematics and is equivalent to the Nobel Prize in mathematics.

In terms of popularity, it is only a little worse than the Fields Medal.

But in terms of gold content, it is not much worse than the Fields Medal.

In the entire mathematics community, the Fields Medal ranked first, the Wolf Prize in mathematics ranked second, the Abel Prize ranked third, and the Chern-Chern Prize ranked fourth.

However, among the four awards, the Fields Medal and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics are the most well-known, and the gap between the Abel Medal and the Chern Prize and the Fields Medal and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics is somewhat large.

Therefore, every mathematician dreams of winning the Fields Medal and the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.

Zhang Yitang is no exception!

When Ye Fei heard this, his eyes lit up, and it was really the same as he thought.

Look at the time of this year's Wolf Prize ceremony, which is also time to take place.

Zhang Yitang spoke loudly, and his excited words could be clearly heard in the entire hall.

Everyone in the hall turned their heads to look at Zhang Yitang, and when they heard what he said, everyone showed surprise on their faces.

Ye Fei clenched his hands into fists and smiled: "Congratulations, congratulations!" ”

"Hahaha......" Zhang Yitang walked up to Ye Fei and laughed.

Then he stretched out his hands, held Ye Fei's hand, shook it up and down vigorously, and said, "Dean Ye, thank you so much for so many years, if it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have proved the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture so quickly, and I wouldn't have won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics." ”

Ye Fei smiled: "I didn't help you much, all this is your own efforts." ”

"If you hadn't been working on the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture for many years, you wouldn't have proved the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture successful, and you wouldn't have won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"So, it's all your own effort."

"No one else, no matter how much I help, can prove the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture."

Ye Fei thought that he was not very helpful to Zhang Yitang.

If Zhang Yitang hadn't been studying the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture for many years, he would not have proved the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture so quickly.

And its own role is equivalent to the last straw that crushes the camel.

When Zhang Yitang heard this, he was still very grateful and said, "That's still with your help." ”

"This time the Wolf Prize ceremony, please be sure to attend."

Ye Fei smiled: "That's certain, if you don't invite me, I'll be anxious with you." ”

"Haha......" Zhang Yitang laughed when he heard this.

At this moment, Zhang Yitang is full of spirits, as if he has returned to the time when he first entered the mathematical world.

At that time, he was also so high-spirited, thinking that the boss of the sky, the boss of the earth, and the third of him, but in the end, he found that there were still 10,000 and 9,999 in front of him......

And he's 10,000 away.

Ye Fei asked, "When is the Wolf Prize ceremony?" Where is it held? ”

Zhang Yitang said with a smile: "August 15th, the location is in Jerusalem, Israel!" ”

Ye Fei nodded and said, "Let's go together then." ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Yitang nodded and said, "Okay!" ”

An hour later, all the researchers of Ye Fei's Institute of Mathematics, the Institute of Cosmos, the Meta Blockchain Research Institute and the Academy of Science, as well as other staff members of the Institute, all knew that Zhang Yitang had won this year's Wolf Prize in Mathematics.

When everyone saw Zhang Yitang on the road, they all went up to congratulate him.

On 14 August, Ye Fei, Zhang Yitang, Shinichi Mochizuki, and Zhang Yitang's family members flew together to Jerusalem, Israel.

At about six o'clock in the evening, Ye Fei and the others arrived in Jerusalem, and then checked into the hotel contracted by the Wolf Foundation for the Wolf Prize ceremony.

Here, Ye Fei saw many of the world's top mathematicians.

Of course, Ye Fei is now also the world's top mathematician.

Many people came up to say hello after seeing Ye Fei, and Ye Fei also chatted with them a lot.

The next day, early in the morning!

The annual Wolf Prize ceremony is held in the Knesset of Israel.

At this moment, at dawn, many journalists from all over the world are gathered at the entrance of the parliament.

CCTV reporters Yu Mengmeng, Tong Siyu, photographers and makeup artists stood together.

Yu Mengmeng looked at Tong Siyu and said, "Siyu, you have also been studying with me for a long time, and you are here for today's report." ”

"I'm coming?" Tong Siyu said in astonishment: "Sister Yu, I can't do it, I still have a lot to learn." ”

"And, Sister Yu, this is the Wolf Prize ceremony, such an important event for me to report, what if I say something wrong!"

"You can do it!" Yu Mengmeng cheered up: "I believe in you, people always have a first time, and after having the first time, it will be much smoother to do it next time." ”

Yu Mengmeng saw that Tong Siyu was still hesitating, and said: "You have to report if you don't report today, I am your superior, you must listen to me." ”

Tong Siyu's heart was heavy, knowing that Yu Mengmeng was not pressing her as a superior, but letting her come to the stage.

She has been studying with Yu Mengmeng for more than half a year, and according to the plan, she will officially take over Yu Mengmeng's work next year.

So, sooner or later, she will have to report it.

Tong Siyu secretly cheered himself up: "Tong Siyu, you can do it." ”

Tong Siyu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll report today." ”

Yu Mengmeng, the photographer, and the makeup artist all smiled as they watched the situation.

Yu Mengmeng patted Tong Siyu on the shoulder, and smiled encouragingly: "Siyu, come on!" ”

"Hmm!" Tong Siyu nodded heavily.

Yu Mengmeng raised her hand to look at the time, put down her hand and looked at Tong Siyu, and said, "It's almost time, get ready, and start reporting in ten minutes." ”

Then, he looked at the photographer and makeup artist and said, "Xiaoxin, put makeup on her." ”

"Xiao Gu, adjust the camera!"

Ten minutes later, Tong Siyu faced the camera and said: "Hello audience friends, this is the seat of the parliament in Jerusalem, the capital of Israel. ”

"Shortly after today, the annual Wolf Prize ceremony will be held here."

"This year's Wolf Prize in Mathematics, a famous mathematician in China, vice president of the Ye Fei Institute of Mathematics, and academician Zhang Yitang, is about to win the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"Academician Zhang Yitang won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, marking the ...... of China"

After a while, Tong Siyu finished reporting, and then looked at Yu Mengmeng nervously.

Yu Mengmeng showed a smile on her face, gave Tong Siyu a thumbs up, and said, "Siyu, very good, you are awesome!" ”

When Tong Siyu heard this, his smiling apricot eyes narrowed into a slit.

Yu Mengmeng said: "Soon after Academician Zhang Yitang comes, you will also go up for an interview, do you know?" ”

Tong Siyu had previous reporting experience, and he was much bolder, and said, "Okay." ”

Around eight o'clock, many mathematicians began to arrive one after another.

Ye Fei, Zhang Yitang and others walked towards the council with a smile and a smile all the way.

Yu Mengmeng, Tong Siyu and others saw Ye Fei in the crowd from a distance.

Tong Siyu said in astonishment: "Why is Academician Ye Fei here?" ”

Yu Mengmeng said: "This is normal, Ye Fei and Zhang Yitang are friends, and Zhang Yitang is the vice president of Ye Fei Mathematics Research Institute. ”

"Therefore, it is very normal for Zhang Yitang to invite Ye Fei to attend his award ceremony."

"Siyu, don't just interview Academician Zhang Yitang, but also Academician Ye Fei, and ask him what he thinks when Zhang Yitang wins the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

"Okay!"

When Ye Fei and the others walked more than 30 meters away from the council, many reporters surrounded them.

Tong Siyu held the microphone in the crowd, squeezed like a quail.

After Ye Fei saw it, he scolded the reporters around him: "What are you crowding?" Whatever you squeeze, get out of the way. ”

After speaking, Ye Fei pulled Tong Siyu in front of him from the crowd and said with a smile: "Ms. Tong, it's okay!" ”

Tong Siyu didn't know why, when he came into contact with Ye Fei's gaze, the deer in his heart collided, and then he blushed and bowed his head slightly and shook his head: "It's okay!" ”

Ye Fei didn't seem to notice Tong Siyu's abnormality, and smiled: "Ms. Tong, you want to interview us, come, interview!" ”

Ye Fei said to Zhang Yitang and Mochizuki Shinichi beside him: "This is Tong Siyu, a reporter from CCTV 10, and she will often interview us in the future." ”

Zhang Yitang and Mochizuki Shinichi smiled at Tong Siyu.

Tong Siyu looked at Zhang Yitang and said, "Academician Zhang, I heard that you won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics this time, how are you feeling at the moment?" ”

Zhang Yitang smiled: "Of course I'm excited!" ”

"Is there anything you want to say at the moment?"

Zhang Yitang said: "The main thing is to thank Academician Ye Fei, without him, I would not have proved the Landau-Siegel zero-point conjecture so quickly, let alone won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics." ”

"I would also like to thank my team, my friends and family, and so many others who have helped me."

"It was because of their selfless support that I was awarded the Wolf Prize in Mathematics."

Tong Siyu looked at Ye Fei and said, "Academician Ye, do you have anything to say at this moment?" ”

Ye Fei said: "Academician Zhang is exaggerating, I didn't help him much, all this is his own efforts." ”

After that, Tong Siyu asked Zhang Yitang and Ye Fei some questions.

The foreign journalists present could only watch with greed.

There was no way, Ye Fei ignored them completely.

They didn't deal with Ye Fei once, and they knew Ye Fei's temper.

If other scholars are still afraid of their verbal criticism, but Ye Fei is not afraid, no matter how they write, Ye Fei doesn't care.

Ye Fei is an outlier in the group of scholars, and he doesn't care much about his reputation.

But Ye Fei has no black material, and there are many fans.

Even if they make it up, not many people believe it.

This made these reporters itch their teeth against Ye Fei, and they were helpless against him.

After a long time, Ye Fei saw that the time was almost up, and said, "Ms. Tong, we are going in." ”

"Good!" Tong Siyu hurriedly got out of the way and let Ye Fei and the others in.

After Ye Fei and the others entered, Tong Siyu breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw Yu Mengmeng walking to his side, Tong Siyu smiled and said, "Sister Yu, the interview went very well. ”

"I see it." Yu Mengmeng said with a smile.
