Chapter 38: The Little White Rabbit Is Really Fooling......
George Bernard Shaw has a head and two large,
I knew that Lu Shimeng was fierce, but I didn't expect it to be so fierce, and it was only the first day that I was a guest, which annoyed the students of the whole school.
Cheren on the side couldn't help laughing,
"Awesome! That's amazing! β
George Bernard Shaw was speechless,
"What's so great about that?"
Cheren said: "Severe cases require strong medicine to survive. Mr. Luk...... Professor Lu understood this, and said something Wen Tunshui, but he couldn't suppress the group of students below, but was looked down upon. β
That's right.
It's just that......
"Could this medicine be a little too hard?!"
George Bernard Shaw was still worried.
Cheren followed with an "um" and said, "Let's see how Professor Lu plays." I believe in him. β
George Bernard Shaw complained: "Of course you believe him. The title of 'Founder of New Historiography' was given to him by you~"
The implication is that if Lu Shi really makes achievements in history, Cheren can also ascend to heaven.
Cheren smiled awkwardly.
In fact, when he first met Lu Shi, he was also very surprised by Lu Shi's youth.
But if you really have contact with Lu Shi, your contempt will naturally disappear.
Cheren said with some regret: "If possible, I would be very willing to do some academic research with Professor Lu, but I don't know why, although he supports my research direction, he is unwilling to guide." Alas......"
"Follow Professor Lu to do some academic research" is obviously an implicit statement, to put it bluntly, it is to recognize Lu Shi as a mentor.
George Bernard Shaw glanced at Chelon,
"Your research says that 'a maritime empire can become a land power, and then control the sea as a land power', which is very popular in Britain, but you also pointed out that 'Germany's land and sea annexation has important conditions for competing for the status of a great power', isn't it self-deprecating? Professor Lu has seen the queen, how can he mess with you? β
Cheren couldn't help but be stunned,
"Professor Lu has seen the Queen? Wait, he's met the Queen, how do you know? β
George Bernard Shaw didn't answer, turned his gaze to the podium, and said, "Okay, let's see how he defuses the crisis." β
At this time, Lu Shi is being attacked by a group,
The students were not convinced.
Lu Shi raised his hand and said, "Quiet." β
Of course, no one cares about this sentence, and the students are still what they should be.
Lu Shi didn't care, he just stood there for a long time, quietly watching the students below perform.
quarrel, a person can't quarrel,
Gradually, the crowd became quiet.
Everyone's eyes were locked on Lu Shi, brewing some kind of emotion, as if they were ready, no matter what Lu Shi said, they had to refute it.
Raise the volume when you land,
"Students, don't carry authority against authority."
This sentence was given to the students on the spot.
For a while, no one squeaked.
Lu Shi smiled and said, "The reason why you think that I am not capable enough to be a lecturer...... No, to be precise, you just doubt, you suspect that I'm not good enough to be a lecturer because I'm very young, right? β
There is nothing to deny this.
Immediately someone nodded,
"That's right."
Lu Shi smiled,
"You naturally think that the younger are not well educated, and only the older are worthy of being lecturers, which is obviously a sign of superstitious authority, isn't it? It's essentially the same thing as me using the Manchester Guardian sales to prove my ability. β
George Bernard Shaw listened and couldn't help nodding,
With the spear of the son and the shield of the attacker, Lu Shi's argument is very good.
The students weren't completely dizzy,
Someone said, "That's not the same thing. Older people are more suitable to be lecturers, which is the result of logical reasoning, because the accumulation of knowledge takes time! β
Lu Shi smiled even more and said, "I can return this sentence to you as it is." Best-selling authors are more suitable to be lecturers, which is the result of logical reasoning, because the accumulation of sales requires knowledge, and the accumulation of knowledge takes time! β
What the two said seems to be reasonable, but in fact, they have a lot of loopholes, and they belong to the bar.
Lu Shi spreads his hands,
"If you go on talking, it will become an endless entanglement...... Well...... I want to think about it...... Have you heard of Gauss? Gauss, the prince of mathematics. β
The students looked at each other, wondering why a scholar in the humanities and social sciences would discuss mathematicians.
Lu Shi continued: "I think you should have all heard that story. When Gauss was in elementary school, his math teacher came up with a calculation problem, 1+2+3+... 99+100, ask students to add up 100 numbers one by one......"
This story is so famous that the formula for summing the difference series learned in elementary and junior high school is also called "Gaussian summation".
The students below were speechless,
It's hard to get people interested in clichΓ©s.
Unexpectedly, Lu Shi turned his words,
"Students, I want to ask you a question, when you come into contact with this story, do you all think of Gauss as the inventor of the formula for summation of the series of equal differences?"
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned,
Lu Shi's question was very new, and it was indeed something they had never considered before.
As a result, a more novel question was asked: "Ah, isn't it?" Wasn't the formula for summation of the difference series invented by Gauss? β
In an instant, almost everyone's eyes fell on the student.
Lu Shi tried to hold back a smile and explained: "Classmate, Gauss was born in 1777, and he already had calculus at that time, how could he not even know the simple formula for summing the difference series?" β
The student who asked the question blushed,
"I studied geography and mathematics...... Yes...... Don't get me wrong, I'm not from King's College. β
The King's College London student tilted his head to the side, pretending not to recognize.
Lu Shi tried to hold back his laughter,
After a long time, he said: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if we don't know much about the history of mathematics, we should always have a simple logical judgment ability." Do you believe that before Gauss, Archimedes and Newton would have been bored when calculating 1+2+...+100? β
The crowd was silent.
They were all attracted by the question thrown by Lu Shi.
George Bernard Shaw's eyes were full of approval,
The students subconsciously thought that Lu Shi mentioned Gauss to show that he was not ambitious.
As a result, Lu Shi suddenly made a sharp turn, which surprised everyone and immediately attracted the attention of the students.
It's such a success!
NikoliΔ and Solomon in the crowd couldn't help but glance at each other,
Nikolic asked, "What did you think when you were a child?" β
Solomon nodded,
"You too?"
Both of them realized that when they were children, when they were exposed to Gauss's stories, they both assumed that Gauss was the inventor of the formula for summating the equation for the series of equal differences.
But the loophole in this conclusion is so obvious,
As Lu Shi said, if such a simple thing had to wait until Gauss was born, then how low was mathematics before the 18th century?
Leibniz
Bernoulli Brothers,
Euler
β¦β¦
Where are the faces of these great gods going to go?
Lu Shi said: "This is what I want to talk about today. Reading a story is like reading historical materials, it is necessary to have basic logical judgment and logical reasoning ability, and at the same time consider it in combination with various aspects. Although I have been called the 'founder of the new historiography' by Mr. Chancellor, I think that this interdisciplinary view of historiography should be called 'modern historiography'. β
The students listened quietly, apparently forgetting to question Lu Shi's abilities.
The corners of Lu Shi's mouth hooked a sinister arc,
The little white rabbit is really fooling......
