When the new task panel pops up.

Li Mu was complaining crazily in his heart.

A top student who doesn’t know how to hold a cup is not a good top student.

You slander me!

You are slandering me!

Is he that kind of person?

However, when he saw the bottom mark, Li Mu stopped complaining.

"Is this originally a compensation reward mission? I've never seen it before."

But speaking of it, the system has indeed not issued a new task to him for a while, at least half a month.

"That's right."

Li Mu nodded with satisfaction and expressed how delicious it was.

At least compared to other tasks, this compensation reward task is much simpler.

"But what are the compensatory rewards? What are the special rewards?"

The system explained: "Compensatory rewards include energy value rewards and special rewards. Special rewards include rewards such as the number of simulations of the real universe environment, extraction and orientation of the underlying operating program of the universe, etc. As the level of the computer in the host's mind increases, the special rewards will become more Enrichment, including but not limited to material or non-material rewards.”

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, could there be any material reward?

He couldn't help but feel curious and expectant.

But, for now, the most important thing is to improve the level of the brain computer first.

"What are you thinking about? Are you distracted?"

Suddenly, Wu Mengyuan's voice came to his ears.

Li Mu came to his senses.

"Oh, I just thought of something else."

He explained casually.

Wu Mengyuan didn't pay too much attention and said, "That's probably it anyway."

"Just be prepared to participate when the time comes. If you want a bachelor's degree uniform, the school will provide it for you."

"OK."

"Well, there's one more thing."

Wu Mengyuan took out another piece of information and a form from the side and placed them in front of Li Mu.

"Your application for the Ten Thousand Thousand People Plan has been approved. Now you can fill in the projects you plan to apply for."

Li Mu was startled, a plan for thousands of people?

The application has actually been approved.

But what to study?

At this time, Wu Mengyuan said again: "But you have to pay attention, because your approval of this ten-person plan is based on your proof of the hail conjecture. Therefore, this project recommends that you apply for a mathematics direction. If it is other directions, it may be reviewed. There will be some problems.”

"Of course, considering that you made such important achievements in chemistry last month, there may not be a problem, but the main thing is..."

Wu Mengyuan thought for a while and then said: "Because of people."

He said earnestly: "You are so outstanding. You applied for the Ten Thousand Talent Plan at the age of 20 and occupied a quota, so there will be many people thinking about you and looking forward to your... failure."

The reality is very cruel, but Wu Mengyuan feels that Li Mu should also be aware of such cruelty.

Li Mu was silent for a moment. He knew in his heart that what Professor Wu said was true.

Just like what Mr. Lu Xun said, he is never afraid to speculate with the greatest malice.

But soon, he smiled lightly and nodded: "I know."

If someone expects him to fail, then he will always succeed.

That's it, it's simple.

Seeing that Li Mu looked so calm and did not change his expression because of this warning, Wu Mengyuan nodded happily.

No matter at any time, a strong heart is truly powerful.

Only in this way can we always maintain our original intention and persevere.

He stood up and patted Li Mu on the shoulder, "That's good, that's good. Only by staying true to your original intention can you always succeed."

"What doesn't kill you will eventually make you stronger. Young man, continue to pursue what you want."

Finally, he put the application form in front of Li Mu: "As for this application form, you can go back and think about it first. Then when you have a confirmed project, just give it to me. Fill in the higher funding here, three million , don’t be afraid of too much.”

"Okay, thank you Professor."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Wu Mengyuan cursed with a smile, and finally waved his hand: "Go ahead, go ahead."

Li Mu didn't stay any longer and returned to his dormitory.

The dormitory was empty, no one was there.

Today, he is doing his defense, but his roommates are preparing for the upcoming exam week.

He suddenly became a person.

He sighed slightly in his heart.

Then he took out his application form from his bag.

What should I apply for?

If it's mathematics...

At this time, the system sound sounded again.

"The computing power upgrade task is promulgated——"

【Explore the unknown you are looking for】

[Mission introduction: The stars in the night sky are so bright, yet so far away. You may never know what is on them in your lifetime. The unsolved problems in mathematics may seem equally far away, but the pen in your hand can help you get to them.

So don't stop, continue to pursue these unknowns that are far but near. As for those little people in the dark, don't care, as long as you can succeed, they will only be in awe of you. 】

[Task purpose: Solve a mathematical problem again and shock those who are jealous of you. 】

"Finally, we have the task of upgrading our computing power."

Seeing the tasks issued by the system, Li Mu smiled slightly.

Now that the system has issued a task, he can also aim at it.

If you solve another math problem...

All sorts of mathematical problems ran through his mind.

Ordinary questions obviously don't bother him.

There are also many common mathematical problems, such as Bloomer-Stark conjecture, Birkhoff-Politsky conjecture, and so on.

These problems are all unsolved problems in the mathematics community. Although they are ordinary mathematics problems, as long as they are solved, it will be easy to get published in the Annual Mathematics Journal or something like that.

However, since these issues are not highly discussed and therefore not well-known, they are not in his selection queue.

After all, according to the requirements of the task, he also has to shock those young people, so the more famous the problem he solves, the better.

As for the most famous one...

Of course it is the Riemann Hypothesis.

But after thinking about the statement of the Riemann Hypothesis, Li Mu chose to give up.

This question is a bit difficult to solve.

To solve such a problem requires not only flexible skills, but also deep enough accumulation, both of which are indispensable.

Judging from Li Mu's current accumulation, he is probably still a little behind, and may still be lacking in skills.

So he rethought those other issues.

In the end, he set his sights on the twin prime conjecture.

The twin prime conjecture is definitely no less popular than the hail conjecture.

Because this conjecture involves prime numbers.

Mathematicians, whether they study number theory or not, seem to have a soft spot for prime numbers.

A large number of problems in number theory are related to prime numbers.

For example, the famous Goldbach's conjecture, the twin prime conjecture, the Mersenne prime conjecture, and so on.

Because, it is called a game of genius.

"Maybe I can give it a try."
