From university academician to chief academician

March 1, 2027, ten o'clock in the morning!

Everyone in the number theory group works in the office.

Under the leadership of Ye Fei, the number theory team worked very quickly.

In half a month, half of the general discussion of the Gaussian class conjecture in real quadratic fields has been completed.

In another half month, they can complete the proof of the general discussion of the Gaussian class conjecture in real quadratic fields.

Many team members said in their minds: "It's better to have a math problem proof with the team leader. With the team leader here, the problem can be solved at a speed visible to the naked eye."

Ye Fei stood in front of the whiteboard and said: "Assuming that the generalized Riemann hypothesis is true..."

At this time, the dean of academic affairs came in from outside and said with a smile: "I'm busy!"

Ye Fei stopped his movements and said, "Everyone, wait a moment!"

After saying that, Ye Fei walked up to the director and said with a smile: "Director, what's the matter?"

"Don't call me director." The director said with a smile: "You are now a popular person in the school, and your future development will be much better than mine. Calling me director is embarrassing me. Just call me Lao Wang."

The dean of academic affairs is called Wang Luobin. Those with higher positions in the school call him Director Wang, and those who are closer to him are called Lao Wang.

Ye Fei smiled, he couldn't call him Lao Wang.

Director Wang is about the same age as his father. If he were called Lao Wang, he would appear to be neither older nor younger.

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Director Wang, is there something wrong?"

Director Wang said: "That's it, does EDGE know?"

Ye Feidao: "It's the blockchain award established by the International Computer Federation this year!"

EDGE is a blockchain award established by the International Computer Society in 2027, which means that 2027 will be the first EDGE awards ceremony.

"Yes!" said the director.

Ye Fei said doubtfully: "I wonder, Director Wang, what do you think this is?"

Director Wang said: "I just got the news that EDGE sent you an invitation. You were nominated by EDGE and invited you to participate in this year's EDGE awards ceremony."

After thinking for a while, Ye Fei said: "The award ceremony will be held in Beili Country?"

The International Computer Society is headquartered in New York, North America. According to the rules, the first awards ceremony established by the International Computer Society should also be held in North America.

But Ye Fei thought about his current status. If he was in Beili Country, it would be difficult for him to go abroad.

After all, he carries many national key technologies.

Unless you go to some safe country.

"No!" The director shook his head and said: "In today's world, there are only two countries with the strongest blockchain, one is Beili Country and the other is Xia Country."

"The International Computer Federation takes into account the conditions of both countries and it is inappropriate to place EDGE in Beili and Xia countries."

"So, EDGE will be held in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia."

Everyone knows the situation between the two countries.

In order to avoid being involved in political governance, major organizations around the world are very cautious when setting up event locations, and they are usually held in neutral or weak countries.

Indonesia is a developing country. Although it is not a neutral country, it has good relations with both parties. Neither party can offend Beili and Xia.

In addition, it is a weak country, and its attitude is very upright.

Therefore, holding the EDGE Awards Ceremony in Indonesia will protect the personal safety of scholars from all countries.

Ye Fei asked: "When will it be held?"

"The 20th of this month!"

Ye Feidao: "How many people can I bring over?"

"Within five people."

"Okay!" Ye Fei smiled and said, "I will go there then, and I will also ask the school to help me get my passport and air tickets."

"no problem."

After the director left, Ye Fei walked back to the office, looked at the team members, and said with a smile: "Everyone, on the 20th of this month, I am going to attend the EDGE awards ceremony held in Jakarta, Indonesia. I can bring five people to participate. I want to give two of the places to my students, but there are still three places left. Which of you wants to go with me?”

Everyone was pleasantly surprised. Of course they wanted to see the world.

They quickly raised their hands and said, "I want to go!"

"I wanna go!"

"I want to go too!"

"..."

Ye Fei watched everyone raise their hands and smiled helplessly: "There are so many of you, and I can't bring them all. You can discuss it and choose three people."

Everyone put down their hands and looked at each other.

All of them want to go, and they also know that EDGE is the first blockchain awards ceremony.

Blockchain is currently the most popular research in the world, and EDGE was established by the International Computer Federation and is the world's top blockchain award.

It is two levels higher than the global blockchain academic conference that Ye Fei attended in the past.

Such a top-notch event is rare.

There will be many bigwigs from global mathematics and computing circles present, and people in academia will want to go.

It’s a great place to make connections.

Moreover, the connections and abilities I have made are very high.

If they can get together with some big guys at the EDGE awards ceremony, it will be very good for their future development.

After finishing his morning work and having lunch, Ye Fei called his two students to the office during the lunch break.

Wang Yuan and Wang Yuan were discussing what their instructor wanted them to do along the way.

The tutor will contact them only once every other month, and the time is fixed, always on the last day of that month.

And it's only the beginning of the month, so there's no time to contact them.

After the two of them came in and sat down, Ye Fei said, "Do you know about EDGE?"

There was a trace of confusion in Wang Yuan's eyes, and Lin Yida said: "Mentor, is this the newly created blockchain award from ACM?"

ACM is the abbreviation of the International Computer Association.

"Yes!" Ye Fei nodded and said: "EDGE is an award created by ACM for blockchain. This year is the first award ceremony. I was invited to attend the EDGE awards ceremony. The EDGE awards will be held in Jakarta, Indonesia on the 20th of this month. I can bring five people to the ceremony, do you want to go with me?"

Wang Yuan and Wang Yuan looked at each other excitedly and nodded quickly: "Of course!"

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Okay, you go back and prepare. You and I will go to Jakarta on the 20th of this month. You don't have to worry about your passport, air tickets and accommodation fees. The school will handle it and reimburse it."

Ye Fei's food and drink can be regarded as public funds, and all the money spent along the way will be reimbursed by the school.

Of course, there are rules for consumption.

Ye Fei is now a third-level distinguished professor, so the plane he takes on business trips is economy class, the train is soft sleeper or first-class soft seat, the high-speed train is first-class, and the ship is second-class.

Accommodation is 1,200 yuan per day, and food expenses are 1,200 yuan per day.

Of course, this is calculated based on Xia Kingdom's prices.

In foreign countries, foreign prices are exchanged for Xia country prices.

Generally speaking, Ye Fei's business trip reimbursement standards are still very high.

The five people Ye Fei brought were of a lower standard than Ye Fei.

Except for the food cost, it is the same for everyone.

"After that, someone from the school's Academic Affairs Office will contact you and take your documents to apply for a passport and air ticket. Just give them your things when the time comes, and they will help you get everything done."

"Got it, mentor!"

The two left Ye Fei's office and came downstairs. They jumped excitedly on the ground, and everyone around them looked confused.

These two kids are fools!

Why are you so excited?

The two of them were naturally very excited. They had heard about it when they were undergraduate students.

During graduate school and Ph.D. studies, some tutors will take their students on public trips when they go on business trips.

They were very envious at the time and imagined that their mentor would take them there in the future.

Now it's finally happened.

Moreover, the place I went to was the EDGE Awards Ceremony, one of the world's top academic awards ceremonies.

This is a top academic circle, and they can see the world at that time.

What is top level.

They had never dreamed of such a scene, but now it has come true so easily.

Then they took out their phones and contacted their classmates and friends to show off.

March 16th!

Ye Fei asked all team members to summarize the research data, and then Ye Fei summarized the research.

Ye Feidao: "Okay, the first difficult problem of Gaussian number conjecture in the real quadratic field has been solved. Next, I will write a paper."

There was a smile on everyone's face, and it only took a month to prove the first problem of the Gaussian number conjecture in the real quadratic field.

Three days later, Ye Fei posted the paper on Arxiv.

Chengdu, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Institute of Wireless Communication Technology!

The director stood in a laboratory of the institute, facing the scientific researchers below, and said: "Everyone, foreign countries have developed wireless signals that use light."

"Although Li-Fi has great disadvantages, the network can only be transmitted wirelessly under the condition of visible light."

"But Li-Fi allows us to see another development path for wireless networks."

"So, we should brainstorm whether we can overcome the difficulties of Li-Fi and make Li-Fi popular."

Li-Fi technology spreads wireless networks through visible light and is 100 times faster than Wi-Fi.

But Li-Fi has a fatal shortcoming. Only LED bulbs can spread the network, and they cannot penetrate walls.

Compared to Wi-Fi, although the speed is not as fast as Li-Fi, it does not require visible light and can penetrate walls.

Therefore, people will definitely not use Li-Fi and give up Wi-Fi.

It stands to reason that since Li-Fi has such major drawbacks, research on Li-Fi should be abandoned.

However, there are still some research institutes in various countries that want to overcome the shortcomings of Li-Fi and make Li-Fi popular.

After all, Wi-Fi's network speed of a hundred times is very tempting.

After the director finished speaking, someone said: "But director, if we want to conquer Li-Fi technology, we must conquer short pulse technology."

The transmission of wireless networks is the transmission of short pulses.

Wi-Fi emits short pulses of signals through radio electromagnetic waves.

Li-Fi emits short pulses of light through light.

"I know this." The director said: "To conquer short pulse technology, we need a mathematician in this aspect. Only mathematicians who are proficient in this aspect can help us conquer short pulse technology."

"Everyone, please watch!" The director showed a paper on the projector screen, called Impulse Algorithm for Gaussian-like Number Conjecture in Real Quadratic Domain.

"I found this paper on Arxiv three days ago. It was written by Professor Ye Fei of Zhonghu University."

"You all should know Ye Fei from Zhonghu University."

Everyone nodded. They were engaged in wireless communications, which was equivalent to belonging to the computer industry.

Of course he knew Ye Fei.

Besides, Ye Fei made a lot of news some time ago, and it was difficult for them to know whether Ye Fei or not.

Even if they are not engaged in computers, ordinary people know Ye Fei.

The director said: "I also know Ye Fei. Ye Fei is very good at short pulses. He once helped Kyoto Institute of Technology complete the research and development of laser short pulse technology."

"It just so happens that we need Professor Ye again."

"So, I am going to invite Professor Ye to help us conquer short pulse technology."

Everyone's faces showed joy, they had heard about Ye Fei a long time ago.

But they have never seen him in real life. They are looking forward to meeting a legendary figure like Ye Fei who became famous at a young age.

After the meeting, the director went to Zhonghu University to find Ye Fei.

Office of the Vice President of Zhonghu University!

The vice-principal used to be the dean of the School of Mathematics, Dean Xiao, and is now Principal Xiao.

After entering the office, the director shook hands with Principal Xiao and said with a smile: "Principal Xiao, I'm sorry to bother you."

Principal Xiao smiled and said, "No need to disturb me. It is our honor at Zhonghu University that Academician Ning can come to us. I have already sent someone to call Ye Fei, and he will be here soon."

"Please take a seat!"

The director is Ning Guang, an academician of the Academy of Engineering in the field of electronic information at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China.

Academician Ning nodded, sat down, drank tea and chatted with Principal Xiao while waiting.

After a while, Principal Xiao's assistant walked in.

Principal Xiao saw that there was no Ye Fei behind the assistant, and said doubtfully: "I asked you to find Professor Ye, where are the others?"

The assistant said: "Principal, Professor Ye took some people abroad to attend the EDGE Awards Ceremony in Jakarta, Indonesia. When I arrived, they had already left for more than ten minutes."

"I'm on a business trip!" Principal Xiao looked at Academician Ning regretfully and said, "Academician Ning, look at this..."

Academician Ning shook his head regretfully and said: "Hey...it seems that I came here by accident."

"Since I can't see you, forget it!"

"I can only say that Professor Ye and I have no connection. I will come to see him again after he comes back!"

After saying that, Academician Ning stood up and said, "Principal Xiao, I'm going to leave first. Be sure to contact me when Professor Ye comes back."

"Okay!" Principal Xiao said, "Academician Ning, I'm really sorry for making you make this trip in vain. Why don't you eat here at noon?"

"It's okay. I won't eat any more. I have something to do when I get back."

"You stay, there is no need to see me off."

After saying that, Academician Ning left Principal Xiao's office.

After Academician Ning left, Principal Xiao shook his head and said, "Professor Ye left without saying a word. If I had known this, I would not have let Academician Ning come!"

Academician Ning specifically contacted Zhonghu University before coming. He came to Zhonghu University only after learning that Ye Fei was at Zhonghu University.

The assistant said: "Professor Ye may have been busy and forgot to report his itinerary."

Principal Xiao smiled and said: "If he forgets, just forget. For a person of his status, even if he forgets, what can I do to him?"

If other teachers with a slightly lower status had forgotten to report their itinerary, Principal Xiao would have severely reprimanded him.

Let Academician Ning make this trip in vain.

But who is Ye Fei? He is the treasure of the entire Zhonghu University. Principal Xiao cannot hit or scold him, and he has to greet him with a smile.

The assistant smiled and said nothing.

Principal Xiao said: "By the way, you just said that Professor Ye went to attend the EDGE awards ceremony. What award ceremony is this?"

Principal Xiao does not study blockchain, so he doesn’t pay much attention to current news about blockchain.

The assistant said: "The EDGE Award Ceremony is a blockchain award established by the International Computer Federation this year. Professor Ye was nominated for the award, so he was invited to Jakarta, Indonesia to participate."

After hearing what the assistant said, Principal Xiao was surprised, and then smiled: "So this is the top award in the blockchain field?"

"Yes!" The assistant nodded.

Principal Xiao said in a funny way: "How come this kid is as easy to win a prize as drinking water? It takes others several years to win a small prize, but here, he wins the prize casually."

The assistant said in surprise: "Principal, Professor Ye has only been nominated and has not won the award yet!"

Principal Xiao said: "You have just come to Zhonghu University and don't know Professor Ye very well. You will know him after you have been here for a long time."

"Professor Ye is often nominated for some awards, but as long as he is nominated, he will definitely win."

"Every time, without exception."

The assistant said in shock: "So powerful?"

Principal Xiao said: "That's why he is so powerful. After all, he is Ye Fei."

"And I dare to assert that Ye Fei will still win this time, even if EDGE is the top award in the blockchain."

"Don't forget Ye Fei's contribution to the blockchain field last year."

"If he can't even win the award, then there must be something shady about the EDGE award review organization."

The assistant thought of Ye Fei's contribution to the blockchain in the past year, and he nodded and said: "That's right!"

March 19, 2027!

At this moment, many scholars in the blockchain field around the world are gathering in Jakarta, Indonesia!

Ye Fei and others just got on the plane, took a flight to Xiangjiang, and then flew directly to Jakarta.
