I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 570 Good news!Steele Award!
After Qin Ke received the Ramanu Gold Medal, the system's reward reminder also arrived as scheduled.

"Ding! Congratulations, you have won the 'Ramanujin Award', the system has rated 'Grade' as 'S+ Grade', the 'Grade Improvement' function is in effect, and your math points +1000!"

The upgrade progress bar of the mathematics subject has almost touched the upgrade threshold.

"Mathematics level: master level, next level: master level, upgrade progress: 9733/10000".

Qin Ke clenched his fists excitedly.

Now he has proved his guess, once the "Annual of Mathematics" publishes his paper, the system will confirm that the task of "continue to pick off the jewel embedded in the crown of mathematics" is completed, and the system will reward a full 2000 points of mathematics academics Points, and S-level knowledge "Uncovering Hodge's Conjecture"!
It can be said that there is no suspense for Qin Ke to raise his mathematics level to "grandmaster level" before the end of July.

That's a master class!The strength of a Fields Medal winner!

The soon-to-be-upgraded mathematics level also gave Qin Ke more motivation and confidence to derive the fifth set of expressions of Riemann's conjecture by relying on his own strength.

……

The five-day Ramanu Gold Award Ceremony and Academic Conference was very fulfilling. Qin Ke was very busy throughout the whole process. In addition to continuing to learn German by himself and delving into the fifth set of expressions of Riemann's conjecture, he and Ning Qingyun communicated remotely to complete the science He also had to spend a lot of time in human interaction, in addition to his quantum mechanics calculation assignments with Professor Te.

A dazzling young mathematician like him is naturally the focus of celebrities in academia from all over the world. Just at the dinner party, there are many mathematicians and scientific researchers who come to toast and chat with him, and the business cards they receive are even more From two inches high.

However, in this hustle and bustle, Qin Ke always felt that he was missing something, especially when he returned to the hotel to learn German by himself, this feeling of loneliness was even more obvious.

Because of the time difference, Ning Qingyun was still in class at this time, so naturally he didn't have a video chat with him.

Qin Ke breathed out lightly, he was usually used to Ning Qingyun by his side, and it was a bit uncomfortable to be separated for so long.

Especially thinking that it would take three days at the earliest to see Ning Qingyun, Qin Ke realized that he missed her very much.

At this time, Xiaobaicai should be taking the professional class of "Modern Physics Experiment", right?In her absence, she was probably in the same group as Gu Yanfei.

Qin Ke opened the window, and not far from the window was a famous ancient Roman church in Italy, but Qin Ke was tired of seeing the scenery in this foreign country, he turned on his phone, looked at the photo with Ning Qingyun, and There is a short video recorded together.

In the photos and videos, girls with single ponytails smile or frown, they are all so beautiful and lovely.

The more Qin Ke looked at it, the more he felt an uncontrollable longing in his heart. He switched to the WeChat interface and sent a message to Ning Qingyun.

All invincible: "Jun'er, are you taking an experiment class?"

In fact, he knew that Ning Qingjun's phone would be muted in class and would not look at it, but after sending it, he looked forward to receiving a reply.

Unexpectedly, after only a while, I received a reply from Ning Qingyun:

The little green bamboo is going to grow taller: "Well, I just finished the experiment operation, and now the professor is explaining the main points of the experiment for the final exam."

It was obviously just an ordinary piece of news, but Qin Ke's mood immediately improved.

Invincible: "Hey, you actually look at your phone during class, professor, I will report classmate Ning Qingyun for not paying attention in class!"

The little green bamboo will grow taller: "[Chopper] [Chopper] scoundrel, I... I am not inattentive."

Invincible: "Obviously you are sending me a message, can you still be distracted?"

Little Green Bamboo wants to grow taller: "I... I just took out my phone to check the time, and when I saw your message, I just replied by the way."

Invincible: "I don't believe it, I guess, you probably think that I have almost returned to the hotel, and I may contact you, and then you take out your phone to check again and again, right?"

Ning Qingyun, who was in class at Qingmu University in Xiaguo, blushed all over her face. This scoundrel, did he install a surveillance camera next to me?It was completely hit by him!
The longer the separation, the more frequently Ning Qingyun looked at her phone, especially in this physics experiment class. She had mastered all the knowledge points, so she couldn't help but look at the phone over and over again, looking forward to the news from Qin Ke.

Knowing that Qin Ke is very busy in Italy, Ning Qingyun is embarrassed to disturb him. If Qin Ke hasn't contacted for a long time, she usually endures it for a long time before sending a tentative message to ask Qin Ke to return to the hotel. No.

Then every time the phone vibrated slightly, she would take it out subconsciously, and she couldn't hide her disappointment when she saw that the message was not from Qin Ke, and she smiled sweetly when she saw that the message was from Qin Ke.

This pure performance, like a little girl in first love, made her three roommates and the girls next to her feel very funny, and at the same time, they also felt a kind of indescribable envy.

Ximenhui often said: "Oh, oh, Qingyun, you are so cute. You have been with the class monitor for two or three years, why are you still thinking about it like you did when you first fell in love? But Qingyun like this That's the cutest!"

Every time Ning Qingjun was teased, she blushed and tried hard not to look at her phone, but failed every time.

At this time, Ning Qingyun of course refused to admit it, and she replied arrogantly: "No, I didn't take out my phone to check it again and again."

Qin Ke couldn't help laughing again, but he knew that if he teased this tender-skinned girlfriend again, she would become angry from embarrassment.So I changed the subject: "Jun'er, did you miss me today?"

The little green bamboo will grow taller: "Guess?"

Invincible: "Whether you miss me or not, I miss you very much."

Ning Qingyun originally wanted to speak harshly, who told this villain to guess her state and thoughts as if he had installed a surveillance system, but seeing such a sentence, a strong sweet emotion surged in her heart.

The girl bit her red lips lightly, and was about to reply "I miss you too", when Qin Ke sent a new message.

Invincible: "I found that the sky in Italy is gray, and the scenery I see is blurred and there is no color."

Ning Qingyun was taken aback: "Is it smog? Strange, I checked on the Internet, and the weather in Italy should be pretty good recently, and the air quality is also good."

Invincible: "No, because you are not by my side, my world has lost its color, and everything has lost its clear outline."

Ning Qingyun couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This villain is using sweet words to make herself happy again, but she really likes to hear such sweet words.

Zhan Wu Bu Bu Bu: "Okay, I won't bother you in class. I chatted with you a few words, and I replenished a lot of 'Yun'er' energy. When you are free after class, you can find me for a video."

Ning Qingyun noticed that several good friends next to her were looking at her and smiling, so she quickly replied with a blushing face: "Well, yes, I will find you to video."

After a little hesitation, she quickly added another sentence: "I...I miss you too."

Then quickly put away the phone and continue listening to the class.However, the turmoil and anxiety in my heart have been filled with warmth and sweetness.

The girl shyly thought, this is probably what Qin Xiaoke said... energy replenishment, right?

……

After finishing the brief conversation with Ning Qingyun, Qin Ke was full of energy and continued to learn German by himself.

After studying for more than ten minutes, the phone rang suddenly. To Qin Ke's surprise, it was old Mr. Faltings who called.

Qin Ke still admires this old senior, a great master of mathematics, and this old gentleman has always taken care of him and Ning Qingyun.

"Mr. Faltings, hello." Because he had been practicing German, Qin Ke spoke German at this time.

Mr. Faltings had a little more smile in his voice, and he also replied in German: "I was really surprised to hear the words of my hometown. I heard that when you gave an academic report in Germany, you used the Are they all in German? Yes, many monographs in mathematics are written in German, and it is a wise choice for you to learn German."

This old man is really full of confidence in his country.

Qin Ke said with a smile: "I happened to be reading Mr. Riemann's original work. Learning German is really helpful."

Faltings "Oh?" said: "As soon as you solved Goldbach's conjecture, you continued to study the Riemann conjecture?"

"The Riemann conjecture is the last group of expressions left. I want to completely decipher it. This is of great significance to the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics in the world of mathematics and even in the world of physics. You know, my major is physics. .”

Faltings laughed heartily: "Okay! Good! Good!" He said three "good" words in a row, and then smiled: "I'm still worried that you think that if you overcome Goldbach's conjecture, you can secure it." Fields Medal, and then stopped. You did not disappoint me. I sincerely hope that you can completely crack the Riemann Hypothesis! It is the long-cherished wish of us mathematicians to see the full truth of the Riemann Hypothesis! "

It can be said that his appreciation and support for Qin Ke was inspired by Qin Ke's mathematical talent expressed in Riemann's conjecture.

"I will try to let you see the last set of expressions of Riemann's conjecture as soon as possible."

"Come on." Faltings didn't stay on this topic much. The difficulty of Riemann's conjecture was too high. He didn't think that Qin Ke could have any breakthrough results within half a year, even if it was Qin Ke. A mathematical genius who can be called a miracle: "I called this time to congratulate you on winning the Ramanujan Prize, and to bring you good news. You and Ning Qingyun have become the founders of the American Mathematical Society AMS this year. Steele Award candidates, you know, right?"

"Yes, old Mr. Qiu mentioned it to me, thank you for your strong recommendation."

"I just handed in the materials, and it is up to you to win the award. Now that the selection results are out, you two will receive the 'Steyer Mathematics Review Award' and the 'Steyer Groundbreaking Research Contribution Award' respectively. Congratulations, you are waiting for the official phone call and email notification, it should be a day or two. Then you two will come to the United States again in August to receive the award. Although the award is a little less, it is It is the most important award of AMS, and it will be a great help for you to reach the pinnacle of mathematics in the future."

Qin Ke was overjoyed.

The Steele Award is named after Steele, a mathematician at the University of America. It is divided into three awards: "Steyle Lifetime Achievement Award", "Steyle Mathematics Review Award" and "Steyle Groundbreaking Research Contribution Award" , the prize money is five thousand dollars.

Yes, it’s only a mere five thousand dollars, but its influence cannot be ignored. It can be regarded as one of the most important awards selected by the American Mathematical Society (AMS), and its status in the international mathematics community is comparable to the Cole Award , Ramanujin Award.

The three Steele Awards are held every year, and the best of them is the "Steyle Lifetime Achievement Award". However, this section is only given to old mathematicians over 50 years old. In addition to the important influence and contribution of a certain sub-discipline of mathematics, there is another requirement, that is, it must be a doctoral supervisor, and the doctoral students trained will have a more positive impact on mathematics research.Neither Qin Ke nor Ning Qingyun met the selection requirements for this award.

The second is the "Steel Mathematics Review Award", which mainly rewards authors who have published highly influential mathematics papers.

The third is the "Steel Groundbreaking Research Contribution Award", which mainly rewards papers and research models that have important influence in a certain sub-discipline of mathematics, or have published papers and research models with significant impact value.

The second and third awards are somewhat similar, one focuses on the influence of the paper, and the other focuses on the groundbreaking of the paper, and the status is the same.

For Qin Ke, this Steele Award can not only bring 1000 points of mathematics rewards, but also push forward the task of "please continue to receive more mathematics awards", and more importantly, increase the Chips for the Fields Medal.

If it is said that after he proves the Goldbach conjecture, the probability of winning the Fields Medal is about 80%, then after he wins the Steele Award, the probability increases to about 85%.

After thanking Faltins repeatedly, Qin Ke quickly sent Ning Qingyun to tell her the good news.

This is indeed good news. If two people win the award together, they can go abroad together, instead of being separated for ten days like now.

When Qin Ke sent the message, he could almost imagine Ning Qingyun's cute and excited look.

……

Another thing to celebrate is that Qin Ke's German level has finally improved.

After half a year of hard study and the accumulation of foreign language points in the past two years, Qin Ke's "Foreign Language Level" sub-subject "German" ushered in a new upgrade breakthrough on the flight back to Xiaguo. Breakthrough to "Advanced".

Advanced German can already be used for daily conversation and writing without barriers, and the next level is the ultimate "professional level" of "simultaneous translation" and "document translation".

However, for Qin Ke, breaking through to the "advanced" German level and systematically completing knowledge completion is enough to fully understand Riemann's original notes, especially when many original translation books have multiple explanations and cannot be accurate. It is no longer a problem to grasp the vocabulary of the true meaning.

Taking advantage of the time on the flight, Qin Ke carefully read Riemann's original notes page by page, and gained a deeper understanding of Bernhard Riemann, the greatest mathematician in Germany.

To be precise, it is a deeper understanding of Riemann's mathematical thinking.

Riemann is indeed a well-deserved genius in mathematical analysis and differential geometry. The mathematical terms named after him alone include Riemann zeta function, Riemann integral, Riemann lemma, Riemann manifold, Riemann space, Riemann Mapping theorem, Riemann-Hilbert problem, Cauchy-Riemann equation, Riemann idea loop matrix, etc.

The more Qin Ke looked through his notes, the more he admired Riemann.

Because these notes from a hundred years ago can still give Qin Ke a lot of inspiration.

If there is no guess, Riemann is probably the "God of Mathematics" level set by the system.

Qin Ke clenched his fists and encouraged himself again. No matter what, he must solve the Riemann conjecture, and eventually stand on par with Riemann, or even surpass Riemann's mathematical height one day!
