If it weren't for the fact that Qiao Ze had a little chance of agreeing to such an unreasonable request, Xu Dajiang would definitely have found a reason to turn around and leave.

This kind of plot against his family Qiao Ze made him, a person with vested interests, feel a little excessive.

But Xu Dajiang is really a little itchy.

Qiao Ze has previously mentioned that he wants to make the West School of Mathematics closer to the Princeton School of Mathematics.

It is indeed working in this direction.

At present, the Xilin International Institute of Mathematics has been established, and perhaps in the future, the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study will be established.

It's just one short of a journal with world influence.

The Annals of Mathematics is now published by Princeton University in collaboration with the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, and the current editor-in-chief of the journal also happens to be the dean of the Princeton School of Mathematics.

If Xilin can also have its own international journal, it feels like it really has that taste.

This thing is going to be done, in another two years, the score line of Xilin Academy will not say that it will catch up with and surpass Yanbei, at least everyone should be on an equal footing, right?

When it comes to the Chinese Journal of Mathematics in the future, a Xilin core, it is very touching to listen to.

The most important thing is that Xilin University of Technology also happens to have its own publishing house, and the whole process is familiar.

The most troublesome thing in the early stage is nothing more than to apply for two journal numbers, one domestic and one international. But with the Academy of Sciences stepping in, none of this is a problem.

After quickly thinking about it, Xu Dajiang asked with a smile: "I think this matter is indeed negotiable, but who will publish this journal?" ”

"Of course, it is the Department of Mathematics and Physics, after all, our idea is to focus on mathematics and physical theory in the early stage, and of course, the School of Mathematics of Xilin University of Technology can also be named." Zhang Mingrui said calmly.

"Don't hide it from the two of you, if that's the case, I'm afraid Qiao Ze won't agree." Xu Dajiang said with a look of regret.

"Oh? Does Dean Xu mean to hand it over to your school for publication? Zhou Liang looked at Xu Dajiang and said with a smile.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. How dare we have such an idea? I mean, José actually had this idea before, but not in the name of the school, but in the name of the Xilin Institute of Mathematics. ”

Xu Dajiang said seriously.

Well, he didn't really know if Qiao Ze really had this idea, and Qiao Ze didn't mention it.

But he's certainly not lying.

Because Qiao Ze said that he wanted to make Xilin on par with Princeton, then Princeton has it, and of course Xilin Institute of Technology must have it.

"Oh? And this kind of thing? José thinks so far? Zhang Mingrui asked in amazement.

"Well, why do you think we're applying to set up this institute of mathematics? This was all agreed with José before. Qiao Ze's doctoral study is just going through the motions, and you should have heard that his doctoral dissertation and graduation thesis are almost completed, and he will work directly in the research institute after graduation.

The first director was Li Jiangao, but it was a transition, and Qiao Ze would take over as director in two years. Qiao Ze has already included the establishment of a journal in the plan, and he will prepare for it after joining the research institute. ”

Xu Dajiang said with a sincere face.

The truest lie in the world is probably this kind of statement of ten truths mixed with one falsehood, and it is impossible to distinguish between them. As for going to Qiao Ze to confront him face to face? No kidding, there's a difference between intimacy and intimacy.

Qiao Ze's expression management ability, which is like a strong man with facial paralysis, can make them see the flaws before they have ghosts.

"What about the Xilin Research Institute and the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics?" Zhou Liang pondered for a moment and asked.

Xu Dajiang pretended to think, didn't say anything for a long time, and then didn't answer directly, but cautiously asked: "Academician Zhang, Academician Zhou, can you take the liberty of asking a question?" ”

"It's okay, you ask." Zhang Mingrui nodded.

"Is it for the sake of fame or for the sake of our Huaxia in the field of mathematics and physics, that we thought of hosting this journal?"

No wonder you have to be cautious, Xu Dajiang's question is not only presumptuous, but even heart-wrenching.

Strictly speaking, what kind of reputation does the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of the Academy of Sciences need?

Xu Dajiang almost pointed to the nose of the two and asked, are you undertaking journals for political achievements or academic reputation?

Before the faces of the two bigwigs became ugly, Xu Dajiang quickly added: "I think, if you really want Qiao Ze to agree, the journal will simply be exclusively undertaken by the Xilin Institute of Mathematics, and the Department of Mathematics and Physics will be the superior guidance unit with the school." In the future, each journal will be published to thank the Huaxia Department of Mathematics and Physics for their contributions, of course, mainly to highlight the contributions made by the two of them! ”

Xu Dajiang's idea was simple.

As the two academicians analyzed, when the journal had not yet become famous in the early stage, it didn't matter if it added a thank you. Who cares about multiple mentoring units in China?

When the future journal is really done, what guidance unit、Special thanks will only be released for domestic journals。

As for the international journal, it must not be printed with this nonsense.

At that time, after discussing with Qiao Ze, the journal will be directly published jointly by Xilin Institute of Mathematics and Physics and the Institute of Mathematics.

If the two bigwigs or the Department of Mathematics and Physics have any opinions, you can go to Qiao Ze to talk. At that time, it was estimated that Qiao Ze and Li Jiangao were also academicians of the Faculty of Mathematics, and everyone could drink tea together.

directly offended the two academicians, Xu Dajiang would never dare.

But pulling Qiao Ze's tiger head, the fox and the fake tiger are taking advantage of the academy, Xu Dajiang not only dares, but even has been very proficient in operation.

Let's put it this way, now as long as Qiao Ze can be put in front, Xu Dajiang has never been afraid of anyone.

Zhang Mingrui and Zhou Liang glanced at each other......

Well, it doesn't seem unacceptable if José can agree to it.

After all, this journal is, in a sense, based on whether Qiao Ze is willing to support or even make certain sacrifices.

According to last year's statistics, the total number of journals included in these search databases such as SSCI, SCIE, AHCI, and ESCI has reached 20,000, and about one-fifteenth of the journals are theoretical and applied in mathematics and physics alone.

The difficulty of standing out from so many journals and becoming a top journal in the field is evident.

There is almost no other possible task than to take advantage of this opportunity to overtake in corners by refining the track.

In recent years, there have been many journals organized by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the international competitiveness has not been raised, of course, not because of indifference to fame and fortune.

"Hmm...... Xu Dajiang, Xu Dajiang, you are the army that will bring me and Lao Zhou! Alright, do as you say. However, Lao Zhou and I don't need those false names, we don't need to point out our contributions, it is enough for the Department of Mathematics and Physics to have a guidance unit.

It's not too early now, so you should rest early. We'll see you again tomorrow. If this can be settled, we will go back in the afternoon. ”

Zhang Mingrui directly planned to close the door.

He can see that the School of Mathematics of Xilin University of Technology is indeed rich in talents.

There are Bole, there are thousands of horses, and they are not bad traitors......

……

Apple's new headquarters in Cupertino, California, USA.

Tim Cook stood expressionlessly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, looking out at the garden, not knowing what he was thinking.

Until there was a knock on the door, and then Apple COO Jeff Williams walked into Tim Cook's office.

Tim Cook looked at Jeff Williams, who was dressed in a formal suit, smiled and said, "Are you ready?" Jeff? ”

"Of course." Jeff Williams said solemnly.

"Then let's go out together, those reporters should be impatient."

……

“…… I am grateful to Apple, and the 4,563 days I spent as CEO of Apple will surely be the most memorable experience of my life. I would also like to thank all the shareholders of Apple for the trust they have placed in me...... I'm announcing that I'll be replaced by Jeff Williams, the company's chief operating officer, as Apple's next generation of CEO. ”

Tim Cook's departure speech in front of the cameras was not much to say.

But it did earn enough shots.

The longest-serving CEO of the world's top 50 companies in history has finally announced his resignation.

Although there has been news before, it has never been proven after all, and today everything has settled, and a generation of legends has chosen to retire early to enjoy life.

At the same time, as mentioned before, Apple has chosen to pick the company's successor internally.

However, Jeff Williams' CEO still has the name of interim replacement.

There is no way, there is a lot of disagreement on the board of directors about the new CEO.

Several internal successors have their own supporters, such as Senior Vice President Sabine Khan, Marketing President Phil Schiller, John in charge of robotics and AI strategy, and even Jonathan Yve, who has left the board.

This is also the reason why Tim Cook had already confirmed his departure in October last year, but it still took half a year to officially announce it.

Even if Tim Cook also supported Jeff Williams, he still couldn't give the successor enough of an advantage, so he had to be temporary. It can only be said that Tim Cook has been with Apple for too long, and the time to opt out is just when the market enters a foggy period.

A lot of the technical lead no longer seems so secure, which directly leads to serious board divisions.

“…… Thanks to Mr. Cook, it is known that during Mr. Cook's tenure, Apple's profitability was verified, and the stock price increased by more than two hundred times...... There is no doubt that Tim is definitely one of the most successful professional managers in the world, he is like a master artist for judging the market and controlling the global supply chain......"

When Tim Cook finished his resignation speech, Jeff Williams took the stage to begin his inaugural speech.

As usual, on behalf of the Board of Directors, he thanked Tim Cook for his contributions to the company and sent his best wishes, followed by his own policy agenda.

Actually, there's not much to say.

As you can hear from Jeff Williams' statement, the board's number one requirement for him is stability.

Stable work and the transfer of power can only be discussed.

No way, the size of the apple is there.

From the stock market, the purpose of the board of directors should have been achieved.

After the news spread, Apple's stock price fell by only three points before it began to rise slowly.

Obviously, the capital markets are not too pessimistic about Tim Cook's departure. Or it was expected in the capital market and did not cause much volatility.

Of course, this also has something to do with Jeff Williams, the successor.

Tim Cook is a recognized master of supply chain integration and management. Prior to Tim Cook's departure, Jeff Williams oversaw the company's vast supply chain and global operations, as well as customer service and support.

From this point of view, Apple's change of leadership tends to be conservative.

Although Tim Cook had previously made relatively radical suggestions, it was probably out of character, and after more than five months of discussions, the board's overly aggressive strategy made him feel inappropriate, and finally decided to support Jeff Williams to take over the hand.

Perhaps because deep down Tim Cook is still not convinced, he also wants to see if the global market will really change dramatically.

Anyway, according to the contract, Jeff Williams is only temporarily in office for one year, and whether he can secure the position of CEO ultimately depends on whether the results of this year can satisfy the board of directors. Time will tell.

But on this day, a generation of legends will finally come to an end.

But no one knows that the reason for the early end of the curtain is the fear in the heart of the legend.

……

There is no doubt that Tim Cook has left, and the news of Apple's change of leadership has become the biggest news in the civilized world today.

This is true even in China.

It's a pity that California time is 16 hours slower than Huaxia time, and Apple officially released the news at 10 o'clock in the morning, and it was already more than 2 o'clock in the morning when it arrived in Huaxia.

Even so, it still provoked the nerves of excitement in many people.

Even if the vast majority of normal people have fallen asleep at this time, even if most of the people who have not fallen asleep are not interested in this news, they will not even be active on the Internet.

Whether it is Apple or promising, they will argue on the Internet about which of these companies' products is better or worse, no matter how miserable this group describes itself, it is already a group of people who have no worries about food and clothing.

People who worry about life simply don't have the energy to pay attention to the fact that the departure of a wealthy man thousands of miles away will have any impact on the so-called industry.

They hadn't even heard the name Tim Cook.

However, when the sun rose in Huaxia the next day, this news became popular on the Huaxia Internet without accident, directly occupying almost all the hot searches of public domain traffic.

After more than ten years, Tim Cook has finally retired, and for countless fruit fans, he has finally changed his face.

It is said that the new official has three fires in office, and this year's Apple Technology Spring Festival Gala must come up with something that makes people's eyes shine, right?

Last year's 15th generation of Apple was really hard to describe.

To put it mildly, I've never seen such a search for toothpaste. Intel, the master of this area, is generous compared to Apple. Those who don't know think that Apple is also among the high-tech companies that have been sanctioned.

It's a pity that this news did not enter the Xilin Institute of Mathematics.

There are currently no Apple users in the entire institute.

It's not that there are special requirements, the main thing is that there are free mobile phones, and if they are not bad, as long as there is no special need, no one will buy an Apple mobile phone.

Even Hannah's use is promising. Theoretically, Youwei can't use the Google three-piece set, which is not friendly enough for her.

But that's just theoretical.

There are a lot of cattle in the institute, so it doesn't matter if you play with it. It's nothing more than a matter of installing a higo service framework.

For Joze, even more so.

It's just that when we met in the morning, Su Mucheng mentioned: "Brother Qiao, have you seen it?" Tim Cook resigned on his own initiative. ”

Then he nodded in response, "Oh." ”

José has never dealt with Tim Cook, but has only met with the president of Apple China.

The impression that the manager surnamed Cheng gave Qiao Ze was still a little inspired by a sentence at the dinner table, and it was from that time that he began to publish papers in the "Annals of Mathematics" one after another, and from this point of view, he should also thank that Mr. Cheng.

By the way, there is also the Wisdom Scholarship of the School of Mathematics that is also sponsored by Apple.

A decent person.

I haven't been in contact with it since.

I heard that I had contacted Xilin Licheng several times, but in the end the two sides failed to reach a cooperation intention.

Su Lixing is still very reasonable in doing business, and pays attention to a first-come, first-served basis.

That's all the fate with Apple, so Qiao Ze is not interested in Apple's change of leadership.

But there is good news today.

turned on the computer, and Doudou gave him a message that the results of the supercomputing calculation had come out and had been sent directly to his mailbox.

Qiao Ze opened it and took a look, and knew that his direction was not wrong.

In other words, the paper is ready to be closed.

Even though he already had a clear plan for the future research direction, the topic that he had been thinking about for many years could finally be completed, which still made Qiao Ze feel a little lost.

Yes, there is no excitement, only loss.

It's like finally reading a beloved book, and that faint sense of loss can be longer if it could be longer.

Or maybe it would be nice if the question could be a little more difficult......

It's a pity that there are no what ifs in this world.

Su Mucheng, who was already sitting in his seat, felt that Qiao Ze's mood didn't seem to be right, and couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "What's wrong?" Brother Joe? You don't seem to be happy? ”

Qiao Ze looked at the results again, and silently brought this known term into the equation in his heart, and after silently calculating that it could indeed make the left and right equal, he said: "The doctoral dissertation is complete." ”

"Huh? Done? It's great......" Su Mucheng just wanted to applaud, but when he saw Qiao Ze's melancholy mood, he said confusedly: "Hmm...... Shouldn't this kind of thing be fun? ”

Although Su Mucheng is not a doctor yet, she has a lot of people around her.

If Liu Chenfeng's doctoral dissertation supervisor can pass, he will probably be so excited that he jumps, right?

It is not very easy for a Ph.D. in mathematics from 985 colleges and universities to graduate, because there are doctoral students who are depressed and depressed after graduation.

Qiao Ze opened the paper and looked at it, then shook his head: "I always feel that it is less challenging, I thought that the final result may not be so accurate, and there are still places that I have overlooked in this problem, but I didn't expect the final calculation result to be perfect." ”

"That's it......" Su Mucheng retracted his smile and fell into deep thought.

This kind of psychological massage is difficult to do.

She couldn't understand Qiao Ze's mood at this time, and it was difficult to empathize.

Mainly in the dramas she watched, after the protagonist completed a case, or finally made an achievement, most of the mood was excited, and there were even a few people who opened champagne in the half.

For a mathematician who has just solved a math problem worth $1.5 million, to start frustrating because the problem is too simple has broken through Xiao Su's cognition of human nature. After all, Brother Qiao's doctoral dissertation is a proof of the mass gap hypothesis!

One moment I thought it was weird, and the other I felt that it was a matter of course for it to happen to Qiao Ze.

So on this celebratory moment, both men in Joze's office fell silent.

The mood was extremely complicated, and after a while, he held back a sentence: "Ha, Brother Qiao, did you say that Tim Cook chose to resign last night because he knew that you would solve this problem today?" ”

Qiao Ze finally tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled.

The mood is still not high, but the people around him have begun to tell jokes, and he should always have some expression.

The Yang-Mills field theory and the solution of the quality problem will probably be the first to apply materials, energy, engineering, quantum computing and high-energy physics test technology in the future, and it will certainly have little to do with a mobile phone company at this stage.

If there were, it would probably be years before advances in materials science would have an impact on electronic engineering.

"It just takes some time to get used to, and that's something I've been thinking about since I was twelve, and it's been seven years in the blink of an eye." Qiao Ze rarely sighed.

Su Mucheng nodded again and again and agreed: "Yes, time flies so fast......"

Before he finished speaking, Su Mucheng, who was facing the window, saw several familiar figures: "Hey, Dean Xu, you're here...... Oh, Academician Zhang, Academician Zhou is so ......"

Just when the two young guys were sad in the office, Xu Dajiang took Zhang Mingrui and Zhou Liang to visit the small building.

"Qiao Ze, Xiao Su, are all here, I have something to discuss with you, are you free now?"

"I happen to be free today, Dean Xu, Brother Qiao is not in a good mood today, so you can persuade him."

"Oh? What happened? ”

"Brother Qiao's graduation project has been completed, and he just feels very lost."

"Graduation Project Encounters ...... What? Done? Ahem...... Finished very lost? ”

Xu Dajiang took a deep breath and asked, "Qiao Ze, is your doctoral dissertation completed?" ”

"Well, the supercomputing results just came out in the morning." Qiao Ze nodded.

Zhang Mingrui next to him glanced at Zhou Liang.

Coincidentally, isn't it?

Just said that you want to start a journal, and the first heavyweight paper is released? A doctoral dissertation could have been published in an international journal, not to mention the topic of Joze's doctoral dissertation.

"Well, Joze, what's there to lose about? Don't you know who to call for a review? Xu Dajiang asked blankly.

"No, Xiao Su is joking. Is there something wrong? Qiao Ze took the initiative to ask.

Yesterday, the preparation and process of the research team have basically been discussed, and the next thing is to register and arrange the exam, and Qiao Ze thought that this matter had been decided.

"Uh...... That's right, the two academicians had an idea yesterday and wanted to discuss it with you...... Wait a minute, you have to present your paper, right? ”
