"Ah, Uncle Li is actually getting married?" When Su Mucheng returned to the office of the research institute with dinner, he was surprised to see the invitation sent by Li Jiangao.

"Hmm." Qiao Ze nodded in response, a rare smile on his face.

"It's so fast."

"I think it's a good time. The reason why love is the most unstable human emotion is that its early hormone overproduction can lead to all kinds of beautiful illusions. Unfortunately, the autocrine hormone that controls well-being in humans decreases exponentially over time and their familiarity with their partner increases. So it's a smart choice to transform a love relationship into a more solid contractual relationship when the hormones haven't completely subsided. ”

Qiao Ze's words fell, and the two began to stare at each other.

Su Mucheng's smart eyes rarely showed a confused gaze.

It's a pity, with her understanding of Qiao Ze, this is most likely not a point at her, it is purely a rational debate.

Except for being too straight men, everything else is fine.

"Brother Qiao, you ...... Have you also studied love and marriage? ”

"Well, when you asked me to be your boyfriend, I looked for some love psychology and reading on managing marriage. I don't accept most of the explanations, but some of the papers on the relationship between human hormone secretion and love happiness are very interesting. ”

"Uh...... Brother Qiao, if you want to say that, shouldn't we get married too? Otherwise, your passion will fade in the future, what should I do? Su Mucheng looked at Qiao Ze pitifully.

Qiao Ze shook his head and said, "No, it's you who needs to think about this between us. Because I never felt that love was a particularly beautiful thing, and I didn't have the kind of happiness described in the book to the point of dizziness, and I was worried about another person when I opened my eyes and closed my eyes......"

Qiao Ze was talking, but when he looked up, he saw Su Mucheng's little face that was beginning to become aggrieved, so he continued: "Probably for me, beauty means the right person, not love itself, and I have always felt that you are very suitable." ”

Seeing that Su Mucheng still looked innocent, Qiao Ze was silent for a moment, then picked up the manuscript paper, wrote down an equation casually, and handed it to the little girl opposite.

"It's the Schrödinger equation, right?"

"Yes." Qiao Ze nodded, and then the rare start began to start a tirade on topics other than academics.

"I've always thought of love as an emotional quantum system, which can be described by the Schrödinger equation. THE WAVE FUNCTION Ψ REPRESENTS THE STATE OF LOVE, WHICH INCLUDES ALL POSSIBLE EMOTIONAL AND RELATIONAL DYNAMICS. The Hamiltonian operator represents variables such as communication, communication, hormone secretion, etc., and the result of the collapse is nothing more than two. In short, instability.

But the relationship between us is linear, that is, when one variable changes, the other variable changes in constant proportion. It is concise and predictable, and can generally be considered stable. Which do you prefer? ”

Su Mucheng blinked his eyes and said, "Me? Of course I like you better! ”

"Look, that's what the linear relationship looks like, and that's the end of the conversation."

"Yes, let's hurry up and eat, and the food will be cold later."

……

The discussion of love put a break between the couple for a while.

If Li Jiangao knew that he was just getting married, and he could let the two little guys come up with so many theories, he would probably be very emotional. Sure enough, you shouldn't learn group theory, which limits your play, and if you change the direction of research, maybe you will have already reaped love.

Fortunately, Su Mucheng didn't think there was anything wrong with Qiao Ze.

After all, Qiao Ze is psychologically prepared for the extreme passivity of emotional face-to-face.

Just like what she said to Lao Su, it is a fool's dream to expect people like Qiao Ze to take the initiative to express their so-called affection for a girl and manage a relationship like a normal person. As it is today, the willingness to explain so much is already a manifestation of a constant proportional change in variables.

Before that, Qiao Ze probably didn't bother to explain this at all.

And Su Mucheng felt that Qiao Ze's explanation was very cool, and he felt very relieved.

If someone has an excellent man, she has to be afraid of this and that, and she can rest assured that she has a sense of security to the limit.

Of course, if it weren't for this kind of cognition a long time ago, the two would not have come together.

However, as an unmarried little girl, it is inevitable that she is still full of fantasies about the wedding invitation she received for the first time.

After eating, I couldn't help but ask a few more words: "Brother Qiao, if Uncle Li got married, if it wasn't for the initiative to send you an invitation, we wouldn't have heard of it, isn't it a bit too low-key?" ”

"Oh, Uncle Li said, I plan to keep everything simple."

"It's good to keep everything simple, but if you only get married once in your life, isn't it too wronged Uncle Li? How can it be said that Uncle Li is also the director of our Xilin Institute of Mathematics now. The marriage is so low-key, it seems that our dignified Xilin Institute of Mathematics is very faceless. ”

Qiao Ze glanced at Su Mucheng and said nothing.

"And I think Uncle Li is also the pillar of our Xilin, and he is low-key. Weddings can be simple, but blessings for couples are always indispensable, right? For example, some people may not come, but they should not be deserved. After all, many people have been favored by Uncle Li. ”

"Is there one?" Qiao Ze asked.

"Of course there is. If it weren't for Uncle Li bringing you to Xilin University of Technology, it would be impossible for the School of Mathematics to develop so fast, it would be impossible for Youwei Group to get the group intelligence system, the large-scale lithography factory project of the Institute of Optoelectronics would not be so smooth, and it would be impossible for the college to hold such a high-level report meeting.

Now there will be no Doudou, which makes the enrollment work very good...... Oops, it's just too much, if you really have to count it, ten fingers won't be enough. ”

Su Mucheng, who was taking stock of Uncle Li's various contributions with his fingers, stopped his movements, and looked at each other, Qiao Ze felt that this topic was obviously beyond his knowledge of such a thing as a wedding.

"The most important thing is that Brother Qiao, you are Uncle Li's most important student, and your feelings for Uncle Li are very special, so if Uncle Li gets married, you should also help a little, right?"

"Does Uncle Li need help?"

"Hey...... Brother Qiao, do you know what is the biggest difference between you and ordinary people? ”

Qiao Ze shook his head.

Su Mucheng said step by step: "That is, you can really not eat the fireworks in the world." You've never asked how much the Institute of Data Research will pay you, right? Because you don't need money at all. Whatever you want, basically someone will match you well, and even think before you. But Uncle Li is different, he is still an ordinary person. ”

José said, "I have money. ”

"I know you're rich!" Su Mucheng glanced at Qiao Ze, and then asked rhetorically, "But will Uncle Li ask for your money?" At that time, the Qunzhi project said that it would give Uncle Li shares, but he didn't want it. I secretly transferred him a red envelope of 660,000 yuan, and he also returned it. I'm going to give it to him, and guess what? ”

"Huh?"

"Uncle Li donated to the Hope Project in the name of both of us, and there is nothing left. My dad told me secretly. Uncle Li is actually very proud in his bones. If we really want to give him money, he won't ask for it. But Uncle Li will spend a lot of money in the future. When you get married and have children, the pressure is great. My mother told me that when they first got married, my father's career was not stable, and he was also tight, and the family was crowded into an old house of more than 30 square meters near the sea, which was very pitiful. ”

Qiao Ze nodded approvingly.

Although he never mentioned it to anyone, he was really not rich in his previous life.

The lives of the two of them completely rely on Qiao's mother doing odd jobs to make money, and they naturally live a tight life.

Moreover, Su Mucheng's so-called hard life is an old house of three people crammed into more than 30 square meters near the sea, which may not be so pitiful. After all, the house belongs to them.

Before he came to Xilin, the house he lived in was a one-bedroom apartment of forty square meters.

He lives in the bedroom, and his mother sleeps on the sofa in the living room.

I have to pay 1,200 rent every month.

If it weren't for that, Qiao's mother's biggest wish back then would not be to have a big house to live in in the future.

And at that time, Qiao's mother was probably afraid of putting too much pressure on Qiao Ze, and she was restrained in her dreams. The so-called "big house" mentioned in the mouth is just the kind of small three-bedroom with hundreds of square meters.

"So, Uncle Li can ignore this. We've got to find a way to help out. Uncle Li can't pull it down, knowing that if you do it bigger, many people will only come to see your face, so you can only do it in a small way. For people like Uncle Li, getting married for a lifetime is really just like this, and as Uncle Li, it is still the most suitable time to receive such a small gift. ”

Su Mucheng's analysis is very reasonable, and it is also very in line with Li Jiangao's character, Qiao Ze nodded and said, "Then this matter will be handed over to you." ”

"Okay! Guaranteed completion of the task. Su Mucheng smiled contentedly.

She is the same as Qiao Ze, this is the first time she has received an invitation, how can she be so confused?

Su Mucheng has always liked to be lively.

"And you just said that Uncle Li donated all the red envelopes you gave before?"

"Uh-huh. There are also records to be checked. ”

"It's useless for us to ask for so much money, and we will donate a part in Uncle Li's name every month in the future. Specially find a third party to keep an eye on the movement of this money, don't let Uncle Li's kindness go to waste. ”

If it weren't for Su Mucheng talking about this matter today, Qiao Ze probably wouldn't have thought of the money he deposited in the card for the rest of his life, and he could still use it to do something to improve his reputation. After all, these things don't make sense to him at all.

Let Qiao Ze think about the suffering in the world, it is also difficult for strong people.

But using these things that are not of much use to him to brush up on Li Jiangao's prestige, Qiao Ze thinks it's good.

The logic of thinking is also very simple, although Su Mucheng's suggestion is very good, but it always feels not very glorious.

But if everyone knows that Li Jiangao is donating money to some charity projects every month, they will not think in other directions.

If Edward William knew about Qiao Ze's mental activity at this time, he would probably have a higher level of understanding of how gentle Qiao Ze was. The only pity is that this tenderness is only for his own people who agree with him in his heart.

"No problem! My dad knows this very well. He used to donate a lot of money every year. ”

Su Mucheng said magnificently.

She didn't have any concept of money.

"Oh, good." Qiao Ze nodded, and let the matter go.

"You're the best, Brother Qiao!"

For Su Mucheng, it is also very important to find enough fun to balance the boredom in a relatively ordinary life.

……

After expressing the idea of coming to Huaxia to discuss in person with Qiao Ze, it was only more than 30 hours before Edward Witten appeared at Xilin International Airport, which was extremely efficient.

It was a tiring, but Edward Witten was still in good spirits, and he didn't even look like a seventy-two-year-old man.

What sustained him was a feeling.

What he talked to Qiao Ze about this time could potentially change the course of the world's technological development.

In fact, if you really want to say it, many of the existing technologies of human beings are actually simple imitations of all things in nature after careful observation, and there are many examples in bionics.

For example, the first airplane went to the sky because of the flight of birds, which gave humans the idea of flying.

It can be inferred from the recorded experimental process at the time that the Wright brothers probably did not even think to draw inspiration from Bernoulli's principles, which guided the design of later aircraft.

Relying on the courage that any bird can fly, but we can't fly.

In the same way, the earliest ships were simple rafts, and it was impossible for people at that time to accurately calculate the specific displacement of the ship and how much it could carry through the Archimedes principle, all based on experience.

Solar technology is inspired by the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis.

Of course, there are also more subtle technologies, such as digital technology, which is now popular, is based on the basic principles of mathematics and physics, rather than directly mimicking natural phenomena.

The contrast between the two is probably that the latter is significantly more reliable.

Because it is possible for a plane to fall from the sky, or a ship to leak and sink halfway.

Although the odds are low, they add up to a large number.

If, as Joszer told Lott Dugan, humans have mastered how to use gravity, it will not only mean an increase in the safety of tools such as aviation and navigation, but also a loss of fossil energy consumption to maintain power.

In the future, human beings will no longer need to spend a huge price to launch rockets and explore outer space.

It is even possible to build a city in the air, as in a science fiction movie, and connect it by using a ropeless elevator that controls the direction of gravity.

Even space-class vehicles will be able to take off directly from the ground and into outer space. Even the construction of large buildings in outer space will no longer be a dream.

What space station?

A space resort city around the earth, by the way, doing some space experiments is the best choice.

As for the further afield, manned spacecraft far from Earth and began to officially explore space, Edward Witten was too lazy to think about it.

As Lott Duggan said, they are all old.

Even if they are convinced that these things will come to pass, there is a question mark over whether they will be able to see it with their own eyes.

But if they can find the solution to this series of problems before they die, it will be a blessing for scientists like them.

As for whether this breakthrough will make one of its pillar high-tech industries, the huge Boeing Company, a tear of the times...... Truth be told, these Edward Witten didn't care too much.

No one can stop the wheel of the times from rolling forward.

……

Fortunately, the plane arrived at Xilin in the morning, and when he got out of the airport, Edward Witten got into a taxi with a note that had been prepared, and then arrived at Xilin University of Technology smoothly.

No one picked up the plane, which seemed somewhat presumptuous.

With Edward Witten's qualifications, the organizing committee will not slack off when he goes anywhere in the world to meet people, but he feels that it is normal that there is no preferential treatment here. Looking at Qiao Ze's current achievements from the perspective of a pure scholar, he really responds to that sentence.

All awards should be honored by Josser's willingness to participate in the award ceremony.

Whether it is the Fields Medal, the Nobel Prize, or the Science and Technology Transcendence Award, it is no longer enough to measure Qiao Ze's current contribution to the academic world.

It's like when people mention Newton, the first thing they don't think of is what Newton won, but Newton's x-law.

Edward Witten would not be surprised if there was a science prize named after Joser in the near future that even surpassed the Nobel Prize. Whether it is the status in the academic world, or the influence and financial resources represented by the name itself, it is enough to support a Qiao Ze Award to shine in this era.

But the most important thing is that Qiao Ze is only twenty years old this year.

He still has a lot of time to break his own record.

There is even plenty of time to make up for the shortcomings of this world under the guidance of the theories he has discovered.

Edward Witten didn't know what Josser's purpose was, and in the interval of his research, he developed such a rebellious technique as the "material retrograde model", but this is enough to prove that Jozer's talent in the popularization and application of theories is as good as his ability to study theories.

Even if he himself doesn't have so much energy, he still has enough appeal and financial resources to preside over the realization of some projects that seem like science fiction now.

To be honest, even if such a person is empty-eyed, Edward Witten feels normal.

It would probably be a real honor if Qiao Ze could look the other way at him.

Soon, the taxi outside the airport drove into the campus of Xilin Institute of Technology, and then was stopped at the intersection that turned into Xilin Institute of Mathematics.

Edward Witten revealed his identity, and after contacting the Institute of Mathematics, he obtained the qualification to enter.

There was a little hiccup in between.

After the staff who stopped the car knew that Edward Witten was taking a taxi from outside Xilin International Airport, he poked his head into the car and looked at the meter in the taxi, which had jumped to more than 380 yuan, and fell into deep thought.

The taxi driver was visibly flattered.

Without even looking at the cash handed over by Edward Witten, he started the car directly, quickly backed away, turned around, and drove away with a puff of smoke. Only Edward Witten was left standing by the car with the money, full of question marks.

For the staff of the Lubei team, this is none of his business.

In fact, he just wanted to be fair, and he almost had to collect more than 100 yuan.

Don't sharpen the knife too sharply, it's easy to get into trouble.

He didn't expect the driver's reaction to be so fast, he didn't even have time to speak, and the car was gone.

When his eyes looked at Edward Witten, who was messy in the wind, the field worker was stunned for a moment and then gave an explanation with a smile: "After the driver just now knew that you are a world-renowned professor of Witten, he thought that he had read your monograph and felt that you had made contributions to science, so he didn't want to charge your fee, so he left directly." ”

Edward Witten had no doubt about him, but he was shocked when he heard this.

After all, from his point of view, it was just the staff who poked his head into the taxi and didn't know what he had done, and the driver drove away.

This shock even made him suddenly have an epiphany about why Qiao Ze appeared in Huaxia.

The strength of basic education in China is too strong.

A taxi driver has read his monographs, heard his name, and even does not charge a fare for it......

This attitude of respecting scholarship is the foundation of a country's rise.

So much so that when Edward Witten walked into the office and saw Qiao Ze, he immediately talked about it.

“…… This touched me very much, Qiao Ze, the Chinese people are really too enthusiastic. It's true...... I don't know how to describe the mood at that moment, it's complicated. I even want to thank you for not arranging a car to pick me up and allowing me to have this experience. ”

Qiao Ze only knew that Edward Witten had arrived, and he really didn't know what had just happened, but he received the news that Edward Witten had arrived, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

However, he has never been in contact with taxi drivers on a daily basis.

In the past, I didn't have that spending power, but now I don't have that opportunity.

Thanks to Edward Witten......

Just take it.

So after the silence, Qiao Ze just asked, "Discuss the paper?" ”

"Yes, yes, discuss the paper. When I came, I thought a lot, and if we can get the behavior patterns of gravitons, there are so many things that can be done. After all, gravity is everywhere, isn't it? ”

After hesitating for a moment, Qiao Ze said, "Theoretically, it can be said that if according to my calculations, the reason why the gravitational force we perceive is so small is because a large part of the energy spills out into the high-dimensional space. The conclusion is not necessarily correct, but if it is not, the mathematical framework is not self-justifying. Nor does it match some of the phenomena that we have observed.

Unfortunately, if I'm right, it will not be possible for a long time for the current level of industry and technology on the planet to use this cleanest energy source. If I'm wrong, then I'm even further away from discovering the mystery of graviton. ”

Edward Witten looked at Qiao Ze with a strange expression, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Qiao Ze, what I want to know is, how long is the long time you just said?" In the case that we already have the inverse material model as an efficient research tool. ”

"Ten years? Maybe twenty years? Or even longer. Qiao Ze said with a frown.

Edward Witten pursed his lips and said, "Joze, you probably don't have any idea of the word "long-term". Forget it, it's best if there's coffee, and then we can start discussing your paper formally. Although you didn't write the English version, I'm sure you can explain it to me! ”

"Good, no coffee, but tea. Girlfriend is not there. ”

"Then a glass of water will do, no need to waste time."
