From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

Simerson passed the organized content to Tang Kai.

Tang Kai still has some basic level. After receiving the content, he took a closer look and found that the content involved functions, number theory, analysis and other content.

Although most of them were incomprehensible, he still knew that it was a demonstration of number theory. Simerson said it was the idea of ​​proving Goldbach's conjecture, and he didn't think it was a big problem.

"Simerson shouldn't cheat me, he just wants to make money."

"The content of this article is probably a waste manuscript, or it is his or a colleague's. In short, it doesn't make much sense, so he passed it on to me."

"If you can make a little money with waste manuscripts, that would be great..."

This is Tang Kai's understanding.

Tang Kai is still very cautious. It is hard to say whether there is a problem when it comes to academic things.

The last time I just solved an equation, it was Wang Hao's problem. He asked Simonsen to help him solve it, and there was no problem at all, as long as he solved it by himself.

It's different now.

This is a very complicated argument, and I can't even read it.

Tang Kai simply wrote a copy by himself, and then found a professional website to do a plagiarism check, and even logged in to a foreign paper website to do a plagiarism check.

As a result, nothing was found.

"It seems that there is no problem!" Tang Kai was relieved immediately.

There is no problem with the plagiarism check of this article, which means that no relevant papers have been published, and it should be a waste of research.

"It should be like this. Research in this direction, but it can't be researched, and it's a pity to discard it."

"So you sold it to me!"

This time he was sure.

After confirming it, Tang Kai immediately posted the content on the Internet, and marked a sentence, "It's a pity not to post the waste manuscripts that I usually study, and it doesn't make much sense if I post them. If you are interested, you can take a look! "

After he finished sending the message, he immediately looked forward to it.

This is the way to set up people.

There are related research under the account, so that everyone can better understand his personality as a schoolmaster, and they will naturally recognize his professionalism and be more interested in other content he posts.

Even if not many people actually read it, as long as people establish it, what they say will be more authoritative.

This is the most important.

Among Tang Kai's fans, there are still some mathematicians, and the most advanced ones even have PhDs in mathematics.

After the news was released, many fans' comments were incomprehensible, uninterested, etc.

But two people who understand mathematics looked at it seriously and made a surprised statement, "This blogger really has something!"

"This should be the idea to prove Goldbach's conjecture? This is the first time I have seen this idea."

"It's awesome!"

"Although the proof is not completed, it also provides a good idea!"

Tang Kai looked at several professional speeches, and suddenly smiled.

That's what he wanted, to set people up and let everyone know that he was a math professional.

"It seems that the two thousand dollars are worth the money. Let's see the effect again. If the effect is better, I will transfer another thousand to Simerson!"

...

Tang Kai's goal is just to set up a character and make him more professional in the hearts of fans.

Others were also moved.

Mathematics research is really difficult, especially theoretical research. It is very difficult to publish a high-level SCI.

For some mathematics professors, it is very difficult to achieve results in mathematical theory research.

Some scholars knew Wang Hao's thoughts on the proof of Goldbach's conjecture, and after learning some very detailed content, they also had other thoughts.

"Follow this line of thought to continue research, as long as there is a little result, it can be published."

"It is not necessary to prove Goldbach's conjecture, but to do research along this line of thought, and to provide a Goldbach's conjecture, which seems to be a possible proof method, is the result!"

"If you can publish your results in a better mathematics journal, you may be able to apply for a project..."

Some mathematicians think so.

They immediately began to study seriously. Of course, the research is not easy. It is impossible for them to submit the original content to the paper, but to continue the research on this basis and achieve some results.

Of course, it is not easy to make some small progress.

But in any case, it is much easier to continue research along a good idea than to do groundbreaking research by yourself.

Maybe, in one month or two months, there will be progress?

In mathematics research, the speed is already super fast!

at the same time.

Wang Hao was bored in the director's office, writing the certificate earnestly. He didn't come out for a week, so he stayed in the office to work.

Usually, the students will take turns to deliver meals to him.

Wang Hao has six graduate students with him, and each graduate student helps to deliver a meal, which can last for two days.

Zhang Zhiqiang, Zheng Yaojun and others will help when they have time.

This week, Wang Hao's courses were all taken by someone. He felt that his train of thought could not be interrupted, and he had to complete the research in one go, otherwise it might take half a day or a day if he was delayed.

After more than a week of continuous research, I finally successfully completed the thesis.

"You're done!"

Wang Hao looked at the more than 30 pages of papers that had been entered into the computer, and took a long breath, with a smile on his face.

Then his expression became a little weird again.

【Task 2】

[Research Project Name: Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture (Difficulty: S). 】

[Inspiration value: 85. 】

"85 again?"

This is the source of the strangeness. In the process of continuous research, the inspiration value is still increasing.

What if it rises to 100 points?

The knowledge and inspiration in his mind already had the answer. At first, he thought of two ways to prove Goldbach's conjecture, and later one of the methods had corresponding inspiration.

In the process of constantly writing papers, another method also came up with inspiration.

He knew the main direction of the proof, and then everything came naturally, and the inspiration value continued to increase.

In other words, he can prove Goldbach's conjecture in another way.

"But what about the proof? Goldbach's conjecture is just a problem. One way to prove it is enough, and the second way should be meaningless."

"As long as it is proven in one way, a conjecture becomes a theorem."

With deep thought, Wang Hao pushed open the door of the office.

Zhang Zhiqiang was standing in the corridor, when he found the door of the director's office open, he looked over in surprise.

Wang Hao came out from inside, with a puzzled look on his face, as if he was a little puzzled about something.

Zhang Zhiqiang knew at a glance that Wang Hao must have encountered a problem in his research, so he immediately asked, "Wang Hao, did you encounter any problems?"

"Um."

Wang Hao thought and nodded slightly.

Zhang Zhiqiang went over and patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him, "It's normal to encounter problems in this kind of research, just don't worry about it, maybe you can make a breakthrough if you think about it occasionally. You are such a genius, don't worry."

Wang Hao continued to frown, and suddenly asked Zhang Zhiqiang, "If I prove Goldbach's conjecture by one method, and then prove it by the second method, what's the point?"

"..."

Zhang Zhiqiang was a little confused when he heard it, but he still thought about it, "Maybe... the second paper is also a research, but it doesn't have much influence? Can it be used as another solution to a math problem and submitted as a small paper?"

"Can't you vote for the top issue?" Wang Hao asked.

"No way." Zhang Zhiqiang continued, "Unless they are submitted together. If a top journal publishes a proof of a conjecture, the next proof will not be accepted by a top journal."

Wang Hao thought about it and continued to ask, "If they are submitted together, can both top journals get subsidies from the school?"

"this……"

Zhang Zhiqiang had never thought about such a profound question, he hesitated and said, "Maybe, you have to ask Zhu Jianrong about this."

...

After Wang Hao and Zhang Zhiqiang said a few words, they went out and walked around the school, and then went to the Science and Technology Department of the Academic Affairs Building.

In the office of the Science and Technology Department, he found Zhu Jianrong.

"Professor Wang? Fast forward!"

Zhu Jianrong was so enthusiastic about Wang Hao, he took the initiative to move a stool for Wang Hao to sit on, and asked, "Why do you have time to come here? What's the matter?"

"If you don't have anything to go to the Three Treasures Hall, I'm here to consult."

"you say."

"That's right." Wang Hao asked directly, "If I publish two different papers in top journals at the same time, but they are on the same problem, how many subsidies will the school give?"

"this……"

Zhu Jianrong was also stumped by this question, he hesitated and asked, "The research you mentioned is...?"

"Goldbach Conjecture."

"Uh~~"

Zhu Jianrong's expression froze.

Li Ming next to him opened his mouth half-open, and he didn't close it for a long time. He felt that he had no way to speak.

Research on Goldbach's conjecture, published two top journals?

What does this say?

Zhu Jianrong swallowed, and said, "Well, this question, I think, if you prove Goldbach's conjecture, even if you need three paper grants, the school will definitely give it, and it will definitely give you a bonus, so Don't worry about that."

Wang Hao shook his head and said, "A subsidy is a subsidy, and a bonus is a bonus. These are two different things. Anyway, you mean it's okay, right?"

"Uh, yes."

Zhu Jianrong nodded directly.

He felt that compared to proving Goldbach's conjecture, what kind of school subsidy is completely a small problem, and there is no need to consider it at all.

As for the publication of two related papers, it feels more unrealistic than a dream, and it is nothing if it should be done.

Wang Hao got the result he wanted, and suddenly felt that it was meaningful to write another proof.

He walked around the school, ran a few laps on the playground, moved his body a little, went to have lunch at about the same time, and then returned to the office of the Mason Number Lab.

the other side.

Zhu Jianrong thought about the question Wang Hao asked himself, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he became. He simply went to the laboratory building of the Faculty of Science and found Luan Haiping in the dean's office.

He told Luan Haiping about the matter.

Luan Haiping called several professors including Zhou Qingyuan to conduct an analysis together.

"I don't think it's good to ask Wang Hao directly about this matter. His mental state..." Zhu Zhen said and shook his head. "Maybe it's because the research is too obsessed, and I feel like I've been thinking about this thing all the time."

"He's been in the office for a week, and his students say he's just doing research."

"That office is very good, there is no problem, and there are so many people in the laboratory, there will be no problem."

"I'm not worried about this, I just want to know, what does he mean by asking these things?" Zhu Jianrong brought the topic back.

Zhou Qingyuan said, "How about I call and ask?"

"Don't, don't!" Zhu Jianrong stopped immediately, "If you call and ask, let Wang Hao know that I am talking nonsense? What will I say then?"

"……Right."

Now that Zhu Jianrong came to tell the story, it was also out of concern for Wang Hao, and it was not good to make Wang Hao dissatisfied with him.

After discussing it with several professors, they couldn't think of the reason.

Later, he simply went to Zhang Zhiqiang.

After Zhang Zhiqiang came over, he was asked about Wang Hao's research. He immediately shook his head and said, "Wang Hao also asked me this, but I'm sure he didn't complete the research."

"I saw him thinking about it, as if he was a little out of his mind, and he probably encountered some difficulty."

He was very sure.

Others listened and nodded, they didn't even dare to imagine, using two methods to prove Goldbach's conjecture?

This sounds like a problem!

In the end, Luan Haiping analyzed the reason, "I know!"

"It must be that Wang Hao encountered a problem in his research. He found that this method could not prove it, so he thought of other methods."

"Later, thinking about the original method, I became curious about whether I could publish two proofs..."

"So I just asked, and we don't want to over-interpret it."

Everyone else listened and nodded.

Makes sense!

Maybe they over-interpreted it, Wang Hao just asked with interest, what's so strange?

...

After Zhang Zhiqiang left the laboratory building of the Faculty of Science, he returned to the office of the complex building, and couldn't help but talk about it with others.

Yan Jing's judgment was the same as Luan Haiping's, "Maybe it's just curiosity? He's devoted himself to research, and some questions he can't think of, so he might just get into a corner and think of another question, so he wants to know the answer."

Luo Dayong said, "Why don't you think about it, what if Wang Hao really thought of two ways?"

He also laughed.

He just mentioned a possibility, but even he found it hard to believe it.

Zhu Ping said, "I don't care about that."

"Why?" Everyone else looked over curiously.

Zhu Ping took it for granted, "Think about it, what's the matter? What Wang Hao cares about is whether he can get two grants for publishing a paper in a top journal."

"What about me? I can't even write an SCI, and I'm still worrying about what to write for my doctoral thesis!"

The others sighed in unison.

Makes sense!

This is simply not what they "ordinary people" can care about. Anyway, they can't publish two top journal papers in one go.

Zhu Ping looked at Zhang Zhiqiang and asked, "By the way, Zhang Zhiqiang, I remembered something. Do you still need people in your Mason Lab?"

"You want to join?"

"yes."

Zhang Zhiqiang was puzzled, "Why? You are a Ph.D student, and the most you can come to our lab is to get a subsidy. It is completely unnecessary, right? And you are working on a project right now, so you are very busy."

"Busy, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you don't have money, Dean Chen suggested that I go to your laboratory, he said you have a big project."

"Does it matter?" Zhang Zhiqiang was puzzled, "This is not a physics experiment, but a project, just like the work of a software company."

"The main core content has nothing to do with doctoral students. At that time, you have been busy for a long time, and you still have to think about your doctoral thesis. Even if you enter the laboratory, you will do the research alone?"

Zhu Ping was stunned for a moment, but when she realized it, she immediately gritted her teeth, "So the trap is here!"

"I just said how old man Chen kindly suggested that I go to your laboratory, now I know!"

"He definitely didn't want to take me with me, I was almost fooled by him!"

Seeing Zhu Ping baring her teeth and claws in anger, other people in the office couldn't help but burst out laughing.

...

Wang Hao has completed the first proof method, and he continued to "retreat" after returning to the laboratory.

He already had reasons for the second proof.

One is teaching currency.

Each of the S-level achievements can increase 3000 teaching coins.

The second is the school subsidy. A top-published paper can get an extra subsidy of more than 200,000 yuan.

In addition, he also found it interesting to use the second method to prove.

The second method is not the covering method, but the method of establishing the center line. The method is straightforward and rude.

First, the number n is regarded as the central number of the large even number S, that is, n is equal to the large even number divided by two.

If the number n is a prime number, the natural corresponding even number can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers.

If n is not a prime number, use n as the center line to find all the previous prime numbers p, p1, p2...

Then find out the corresponding S-p, S-p1, S-p2...

Then expand the analysis.

As long as S-p, S-p1, S-p2... contains a prime number, it is enough to prove that any sufficiently large even number can be decomposed into the sum of two prime numbers.

This method is still very difficult to analyze, but it is easier to prove than the first method.

Wang Hao was doing research patiently, and read two papers for inspiration in the middle.

It took four days to finally complete the proof.

This paper is written in 25 pages.

"Another proof has been completed!" He looked at the computer screen a little excitedly, then read it carefully from beginning to end, and submitted the manuscript after confirming that there were no problems.

First, he approached Bruce Pulitzer, editor-in-chief of Advances in Mathematics.

"Bruce, I have a research paper here that you will definitely be interested in."

Pulitzer immediately replied, "What paper?"

"Goldbach Conjecture."

"..."

Pulitzer seemed to digest the information for a long time, and it took him a long time to reply, "Upload and send it here."

Wang Hao happily ended the conversation with Pulitzer, and then found the editor-in-chief of "Acta Mathematica" Fayes-Leibniz.

Leibniz sent him several emails, as if he wanted to 'dig' him into Acta Mathematica.

Wang Hao has published papers in the "Acta Mathematica", but only published a study on the Monge Ampere equation.

A big problem with Acta Mathematica Sinica is that it is a quarterly journal, published only once every three months, and the number of published papers is too small, and it usually takes a long time to wait from submission to publication.

Wang Hao decided to contribute after noticing that the new issue of "Acta Mathematica Sinica" will be published next month.

He first asked a question, "If I publish a very influential paper, can I jump in the queue and publish it next month?"

Leibniz immediately replied, "No questions!"

Wang Hao simply had a call with Leibniz, and he asked, "Are you sure you can publish it next month? From review to publication, there is only half a month left."

Leibniz affirmed, "If it is a major research, of course you can jump in the queue and publish it. Dr. Wang, don't worry, there are many top mathematicians in the world who are willing to help us with the review work."

"All right."

"What research?"

"Goldbach Conjecture."

"..."

Leibniz made sure and asked, "You're not joking, are you, Dr. Wang?"

"Of course." After Wang Hao finished speaking, he added, "By the way, by the way, it's best to publish it next month, because I also submitted "New Advances in Mathematics" at the same time."

Leibniz was surprised when he heard this, "Multiple submissions for one manuscript? This is not allowed!"

"Of course not." Wang Hao explained, "I used two methods, two completely different methods, so I submitted to two journals respectively."

Leibniz was silent for a long time, and said, "Now I'm sure you're joking."
