From small town academic to chief scientist

It is early in the morning in China and most people have already gone to bed, so the popularity of Zhouyi will have to wait until everyone gets up in the morning to go to work.

At this moment, Zhou Yi had returned to the hotel room and packed his things.

After attending the party, I boarded a plane back home the next day.

Although Zhou Yi felt a little emotional about what Tan Mingming said, the academic environment was still getting better due to the attention from above.

Otherwise, Ding Jian and others would not have returned home.

Tan Mingming may be waiting for a better time to return to China.

Tan Mingming and the golden generation of Shangjing University are both nationals of Daxia, and they can be regarded as sucking the blood of a certain country to develop and strengthen themselves.

As far as mathematical theory is concerned, generally no one really covets it.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Qiu to directly return to Daxia and enter Shuimu University full-time.

This is also true for Mr. Yang.

As far as the personnel of various universities in the federation are concerned, they are basically composed of scholars from all over the world, not all of them are local scholars in the United States. They have a tendency to gather talents from all over the world for their own use.

However, these talents from other countries may also have selfish motives, such as cultivating talents for their own motherland.

Deligne, the original Wiles, and Gregory Margulis and many other big players are from other countries.

Gregory Margulis is recognized by Zhou Yi as one of the six emperors, and has won the Fields Medal, the Abel Medal, and the Wolf Medal.

And he himself is from the former Tsarist Russia.

Faljens also taught at Princeton before, but eventually returned.

Zhou Yi packed up his things and erased some irrelevant things from his mind.

Then attend the party in the evening.

When Zhou Yi appeared in the hotel banquet hall, many people immediately noticed him.

Even though Zhou Yi is very low-key, he can't hold back the enthusiasm of a group of people.

Carlos even said:

"Hey, Zhou Yi, tonight's protagonist is finally here."

Milno asked in a tentative tone at this time:

"Are you still coming to Princeton to study for your Ph.D.?"

At this time, Deligne also looked at Zhou Yi very curiously. To be honest, he also wanted to accept Zhou Yi as his apprentice.

However, although Zhou Yi is very outstanding, at least ten of the people present have won the Fields Medal, and they are all tops in the industry.

The achievements of some people are no less than those of Zhou Yi now.

As for Zhou Yi's current mathematics achievements, let alone graduating with a doctorate, ten doctorates are enough.

Zhouyi said:

"It's not clear yet. If I come, I might choose Princeton. I have to discuss it with the teacher."

"Tch, what are you discussing with Old Man Qiu? Don't you want to inherit the things of several mathematical schools and then start your own sect?"

Milno said thoughtfully.

Zhou Yi smiled awkwardly, it's okay for you guys to call him that, but Keqiu is still his teacher.

"Definitely next time!"

Zhou Yi said.

"Okay, I hope you will come, or you can come directly to teach with us and become our full professor at Princeton."

Milnor said.

The people present took a deep breath when they heard this.

If they remember correctly, this guy still has a master's degree.

A full professor of mathematics at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton is not a full professor elsewhere.

Many outstanding mathematicians have come from here.

Deligne, Milno, Qiu and many other big guys have stayed here.

Big guys like Edward Witten are all from here.

Zhou Yi shook his head and said:

"Although I have achieved some achievements, I still feel that I still need to learn. Isn't proving mathematical conjectures the first step to the sea of ​​stars?"

"That's true. It's up to you. What a pity."

Milno shook his head, then took a sip of wine and left.

Not long after, there was another fight. Zhou Yi was drunk a lot by a group of big guys, and of course he also got a lot of contact information.

To facilitate future cooperation and exchanges.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yi finally boarded the plane back home with Tan Mingming seeing him off.

Looking at the plane outside the window, Zhou Yi felt that the drunkenness was not over yet, so he couldn't help but fall asleep again.

There are too many big guys drinking wine from Zhouyi. There are about 10 Fields Medal scholars holding the cup alone, as well as top big guys in various fields, as well as an eager-looking Mr. Bill.

Zhou Yi waved his hand and left a legend in Ou Mei.

A young genius, the winner of a million-magnesium gold medal, the most important thing is that he is an Asian and a native of Daxia.

The look of Zhou Yi holding champagne is probably the most popular website on OMG.

The most important thing is that he is just a 19-year-old master's degree, a genius young mathematician, the second Terence Tao.

Of course, there are definitely mixed reviews in the comment area, some are bragging, some are questioning, and some even question the ugly imperial court.

As for China, it has already been noisy.

There is envy and there are jealous people.

As for the marketing account, it has already started to be blown, and the official media also reported this news.

The comment sections on various platforms have mixed reviews.

[God Zhou, it’s time to draw a lottery! 】

[Come here to worship God Zhou, take a breath of European energy, and avoid failing every class this semester. 】

[I find it unscientific to prove such a simple conjecture in more than fifty pages. 】

【Are you happy about the award from a Chinese citizen? Just a bunch of sheepdogs. 】

[Is one million magnesium gold worth promoting? 】

There are all kinds of comments in it, making it hard to tell who is right and who is wrong.

If you go to an ugly country to win an award and give a speech there, who are you looking down on?

That's enough to make some people fuss.

He is even more dismissive of the awards awarded by Chou Country.

Of course, there are knowledgeable people on the four platforms who try their best to explain, but they are of little use.

There are both blowing and squirting.

In particular, Zhou Yi's status as Qiu's apprentice was even more criticized.

Zhou Yi, who returned to his motherland, took a deep breath of air.

Then I took a taxi and returned to Shuimu University.

However, the banners at Shuimu University have long since changed, and almost all of them are about Zhou Yi.

"Congratulations to our school student Zhou Yi for winning the Veblen Geometry Prize! 》

"Congratulations to our students for proving the world-class difficult Bill Conjecture! 》

Not only did Shuimu University hang up these banners, Yuzhou University also hung up these banners.

Basically, they are all made overnight, for fear that others will not know about it, and for fear that Beijing University will not know about it.

Due to the time difference, Zhou Yi didn't go out for the past two days, but simply replied to the message. Fortunately, Zhou Yi had stored a lot of meat in the refrigerator.

Otherwise there will be no food at all.

Zhou Yi didn't start going to the office until the time difference was completely adjusted.

Xiao Wanyi still stared at the computer screen very seriously while reading the literature.

However, her hair was disheveled and she didn't look like she had the delicate makeup she had at first.

He looked like a research monk.

Zhou Yi walked in carefully and Xiao Wanyi called out,

"Ah? Junior brother!?"

Zhou Yi chuckled and said:

"it's me."

Xiao Wanyi tidied up her appearance and said:

"Teacher Qiu told me that if you come back, go find Teacher Qiu. He has something to ask you."

Zhouyi said:

"Okay, Teacher Qiu also told me, I will go find him right away. Senior sister, how are you doing lately?"

When Xiao Wanyi heard Zhou Yi ask herself, she smiled slightly and said with a very deep smile on her lips:

"I have submitted one paper, and the results are coming out soon. The second paper will also be submitted."

Zhouyi said:

"Senior sister is amazing, she is worthy of being the golden generation of our Shuimu University."

After speaking, he went directly to Qiu Wanyi's office without waiting for Xiao Wanyi's reaction.

Looking at Zhou Yi leaving, Xiao Wanyi felt lost.

If I had taken the initiative, maybe the outcome would have been different.

Not long after, Zhou Yi came to Qiu Chengtong's office. Zhou Yi knocked on the door and only heard a voice coming out,

"Come in."

Zhou Yi immediately opened the door and walked in. He found that Birkar was also there. Zhou Yi said:

"Good morning, Mr. Qiu, good morning Mr. Birkar."

When Qiu Chengtong saw it was Zhou Yi, he immediately laughed and said:

"It's Zhou Yi. I watched the entire proof process at Princeton. You did a great job."

Bill Carr was not stingy either and praised:

"Million Magnesium Gold, you have to treat us to a drink!"

Zhou Yi smiled sheepishly and said:

"Thanks to your reminder for letting me change direction in time. As for the treat, please."

Qiu said:

"I am your teacher. This is what a teacher should do. I am here to tell you that with your current level, you have also met my graduation requirements. There are still two paths for you to choose from. "

“The first way is to follow the original plan, go to Princeton to get a Ph.D., and then come back to work at Shuimu University;

The second way is to directly graduate with a Ph.D. and then stay at Shuimu University to work. It depends on your choice. "

Zhou Yi was stunned here for a while, so he graduated directly and started to be a university professor?

Or continue to be a student for a while?

It’s such a hard topic to choose.

Seeing Zhouyi's hesitation, Qiu analyzed:

"My intention is to go to Deligne or Milno, or under their leadership, prove a world-class conjecture and prepare for your return to China for development. Don't tell me you don't want to return to China!"

Zhouyi said:

"If you go out to get a doctorate, you will definitely return to China, and you will return to China as soon as possible."

After hearing this answer, Qiu nodded and said:

"Don't pay attention to the rumors in the country. Look at me, old man. I get scolded all the time. As long as you have this intention, I will bear all the negative public opinions for you.

You young people are not as good at trolling as I was when I was young. "

Zhouyi:...

You have always won the Fields Medal, so of course you dare to challenge a certain university and try a weaker one?

You were slapped to death a long time ago, and you were asked to return to China to engage in these tricks.

Qiu spent his own money to enroll in Shuimu University with zero salary, ignored the nastiness, and devoted himself to promoting the development of basic mathematics in Daxia. This alone is worthy of admiration.

If it were any young and accomplished person, he would have run away long ago and been left here to suffer?

When Chu Qiu proposed the return of nationality, a bunch of people came back to take care of themselves, but did they need it?

Isn't it okay for Qiu to retire at Harvard? He has won so many world-class mathematics awards, but he can't go anywhere. Wherever he goes, he is worshiped like the Buddha of mathematics.

In the end, the matter of nationality return had to be abandoned.

As a result, many people now use nationality as an excuse.

Seeing Zhou Yi's strange look, Qiu said again:

"Of course I'm not asking you to argue with the media. I'm just asking you to keep a calm mind and ignore them."

Zhou Yi was very grateful. Qiu was really a good teacher.

Bill Carr on the side said:

"Actually, if you become a professor now, you won't be able to accept students this year. It is estimated that you will only receive students next year. Moreover, Shuimu University, like Peking University, has long stopped accepting Unified Examination candidates and only accepts recommended students."

Zhou Yi has long heard that many prestigious schools only admit one or two students for the mathematics system examination, and the competition is so fierce that it can be called a fight between gods.

Qiu said again:

"In addition, there may be some manuscripts left by Alexander Grothendieck over there in Deligne. You may want to learn from them. If you don't go there, they will definitely not give them to you."

Zhouyi:...

"Then just like Teacher Qiu said, go and study there. As for being scolded, leave it to me. Anyway, I am used to being scolded. How can I let the teacher go out and endure the pressure?"

Zhou Yi said very sincerely.

"Okay, you just need to choose what to do, and we will arrange the rest for you. After your paper is published, you can go to the defense.

You should prepare in the next few days. I will personally defend you when the time comes, and Bill Carr will also be one of the defending teachers. "

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"Good teacher."

"Okay, go ahead."

Qiu nodded and said.

After Zhou Yi left, Bill Carr said:

"Mr. Qiu, you also know Zhou Yi's deeds. Aren't you afraid that he will never come back?"

Qiu said:

"Don't be afraid, my influence over there is much greater than that of a young boy like him."

After Zhou Yi left, he returned to his dormitory and checked the scientific research assistant. He found that the number of registered members had increased, reaching the previous agreement.

Then Zhouyi started writing updates on Bibo and other platforms,

[Congratulations to Scientific Research Assistant for reaching 20,000 members. Now there is a lottery for 5 people to revise their papers. All the previously revised papers have been published. I am the second author. Welcome to download Scientific Research Assistant. 】

Zhou Yi directly sent out the title of the paper he had changed. This move allowed doubters to go directly to various journals to check whether Zhou Yi had fulfilled his original promise.

Less than ten seconds after Zhou Yi finished posting,

Most people comment under Zhouyi scarf,

[Zhou Shen, choose me! I have five members! 】

[Shen Zhou, I just want to graduate. Please help me and save the child. 】

[Zhou Shen, you must hit me, woo woo woo. 】

Not long after, five lucky winners were drawn in Peony's random draw.

Then Zhou Yi directly announced the names of the five people on the scarf.

He also stated that he would only provide suggestions and directions for modifications and would not modify them personally.

Although it's a little worse than last time, it's lucky to have a big boss personally helping to see it.

As soon as the list was announced, many people began to reply:

[My five memberships were finally not in vain. I was finally selected. I am a Ph. D. student and I can finally graduate. 】

[There is green smoke coming out of the ancestral graves, I finally got caught, Zhou Shen is awesome! 】

Not long after, Zhou Yi began to read the paper.

Five people, three with master's degrees and two with Ph.D.

Zhou Yi browsed it for a while and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, they are all three branches of mathematics, physics and chemistry. Zhouyi said that next time, you should avoid the ones you don't know.

I'm not in the right mood today, I haven't written much, I'm sorry, please vote for me. There are still more than 40 votes left.
