This night is destined to be a sleepless night for the Chinese academic community.
Yanbei and Huaqing universities, which are the capital of China and have gathered the largest number of academic resources, were naturally the first to learn the news that a nineteen-year-old boy from China had completed the proof of the existence of the Yang-Mills equation, and they had different reactions. .
Especially Zhang Hongcai, who was completely confused when he just learned the news over the phone.
Isn’t this too persuasive?
But why so fast?
He personally confirmed this matter with Qiao Ze. Thinking about it carefully, Qiao Ze might have written this paper specifically after listening to his advice.
But in Zhang Hongcai's view at the time, Qiao Ze probably just had an idea of proof, and it would definitely take some time to provide a complete proof. Even if it takes one or two years, this efficiency is already extremely high.
But who could have imagined that what Qiao Ze said was almost the same, and it turned out to be proof that this step had been completed?
In fact, there is nothing to say after completing the proof. There are similar mistakes in the mathematics world.
Claiming to prove a difficult problem, but in the end no one paid attention to it, let alone no one recognized it.
So what shocked Zhang Hongcai the most was that in such a short period of time, Qiao Ze's paper was recognized by the world's mainstream academic circles!
The reviewers, including Edward Witten, all approved it directly without even suggesting any changes that needed to be made, which is enough to show how beautiful and wonderful the proof of this paper is!
How is this possible? !
Fortunately, this guy didn't directly give the general solution to the equation.
But with the efficiency Qiao Ze has shown during this period, Zhang Hongcai suspects that it won't take long to completely solve this problem, right?
When Zhang Hongcai's phone rang again, everyone else was in a daze.
This call came from Zhang Mingrui. As the executive vice president of the Mathematics Society and the chairman of the current Mathematics School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhang Hongcai naturally did not dare to neglect.
In fact, the relationship between the two has always been good.
Zhang Mingrui also graduated from Yanbei University as an undergraduate. Not only are they alumni, the two of them have also conducted collaborative research on quantum groups and non-commutative geometry.
The video of Qiao Ze’s report at the Centenary Lecture Hall of Yanbei University was also sent to Zhang Mingrui by Zhang Hongcai.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. If there are schools of thought in the Chinese mathematics world, Yanbei, with its profound foundation, can definitely form its own school.
"Have you heard? Qiao Ze has proved the existence of the solution to the Yang-Mills equation?"
As soon as the phone call came through, Zhang Mingrui on the other end of the phone said straight to the point.
"I just heard about it. Academician Lu called me and said that Professor Witten personally called him to inform him." Zhang Hongcai replied quickly.
"Didn't you say last time that Qiao Ze just had an idea? Is this just an idea? It turns out that the idea was completed so quickly?" asked the other person.
Zhang Hongcai was silent.
He couldn't answer this. It really wasn't Qiao Ze who had roundworms in his stomach, and he knew that Qiao Ze was very efficient, but after all, this was one of the most difficult questions in the world recognized by the theoretical community. How could he have expected that Qiao Ze would give it so quickly? prove?
"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. What does the admissions teacher of Yanbei University do? How did this kind of seedling get to Xilin University of Technology? Even if Yanbei's selection system is completely ineffective, it will not be possible to put this kind of talent Did the child miss it?"
"This... you will probably understand if you have contact with Qiao Ze a few times." Zhang Hongcai said with a wry smile on this question.
To be honest, after returning from Xilin, Zhang Hongcai went to learn about the enrollment situation of Nanhu Star City. After knowing Qiao Ze's performance in high school, he really couldn't blame the admissions teacher for being irresponsible.
This is a total failure of the high school.
For such a good prospect, no teacher in the entire high school noticed that this child was gifted.
When I went to Xilin University of Technology, my head teacher recommended that my parents come to me.
Indeed, Qiao Ze's bumpy road to school sounded like a fantasy story to Zhang Hongcai.
I really can’t figure out how autistic Qiao Ze was in high school, so that everyone is too lazy to explore the interesting things in this child’s brain.
"Contact is definitely necessary. But the most important thing now is that regarding the proof of the Yang-Mills equation, it is necessary to hold an international academic seminar. You can imagine how high the standards will be this time. Here at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Someone has already proposed it, but I think it would be best if it could be held at Yanbei University. But in the end, it still depends on Qiao Ze’s wishes."
"I was thinking about this just now." Zhang Hongcai's tone became eager.
Holding certain high-standard and high-quality international academic conferences is definitely one of the most effective ways to enhance the academic influence of universities and research institutes.
But this kind of meeting cannot be held casually.
Theoretical mathematicians and physicists are very busy. Without a special reason, they will not come even if you invite them again and again.
For example, academic masters like Edward Witten.
It's really not something you can just pay for. And even if you spend money to invite it and spread it, there is no point in it.
Qiao Ze's paper is the best reason.
The proof of the existence of the Yang-Mills equation definitely not only brings light to the problem of mass gap, but also means that many physical theories based on the Yang-Mills theory, such as quantum field theory, have a mathematical basis.
This is tantamount to dropping a bombshell in the world of high-energy particle physics, quantum physics, and related mathematics. Using this as an excuse to hold an international mathematics and physics conference will definitely bring many big names together.
And these big guys will definitely not come alone, but will bring many students with them. Coupled with this level of conference, it is enough to attract many speculative scholars from all over the world, even if they pay to attend. For no other reason than to get acquainted with top academic leaders, this is basically the case for influential academic conferences every year.
The cost of organizing the event is guaranteed to be earned back, or even a little bit.
These professors and students have come to see the environment of Yanbei University with their own eyes, and they will naturally be impressed when they return.
Not to mention that having hosted this meeting, it must have been more than just Qiao Ze giving the report. With the advantage of being on the home court, I can also arrange a few more academic lectures by my own professors. It is also great to take this opportunity to have some exchanges with the international academic community.
In short, if we can host this report meeting, there will be many benefits.
The only problem is that both Xilin University of Technology and Qiao Ze agreed that Yanbei University would host this lecture.
To be honest, Zhang Hongcai really didn't have the confidence.
"Just thinking about it is not enough. I have never dealt with Qiao Ze, but you are familiar with that place. Please find a way to ask. By the way, you should also know about the Weibo incident, right? The person who anonymously reported Li Jiangao was not Yanbei University Professor?"
"I'm sure that's not the case! I've also read those chat records. I guess he's also a professor from Linhai. It's probably because of this year's project selection. There were a lot of losers over there. I'm looking for a soft persimmon. It seems we have an idea. I want to find out the person who caused the trouble first, sell it to Qiao Ze, and then talk to Qiao Ze about the report meeting, so I can be more confident."
Zhang Hongcai spoke very enthusiastically, but the tone of the other person's reply was very low, as if he was not optimistic about his ideas at all.
"It's not the chat history...it's that, AI Doudou's Weibo, you don't know yet? Didn't your student tell you?"
"Ah? I know about Doudou. Did it post on Weibo again?"
"You'll know if you go and take a look... What should I say about this... I don't know what to say. But I guess you don't need to sell this. You'd better find another way. That's it, I'll hang up first. Okay." After saying that, Zhang Mingrui hung up the phone directly.
Zhang Hongcai doubtfully took his mobile phone to log in to Weibo, which he had just registered recently.
The Weibo account on the mobile phone belongs to the day Doudou was born. It was also the Sanwu account that was only registered that day. Currently, I only follow Doudou’s Weibo account. I even commented on it once.
I found the watch list unskillfully, found "Brother Qiao and Xiao Su's Good Doudou" and clicked on it, and immediately saw the latest Weibo.
"Everyone, come and watch the series of Weibo posts about the Outstanding Youth Project of the Department of Mathematics and Science in recent years. The series is to be continued!"
After being stunned, Zhang Hongcai immediately started to scroll down and clicked on the first Weibo Nine Palaces picture below. The phone screen was a bit small, so he had to zoom in to see it clearly. It took him several minutes to study it. After reading the contents of the picture, the mathematics master from Yanbei University fell silent.
Then I immediately logged into the computer and used the web page to log in to Weibo.
It's much easier to view pictures on a monitor, and it's too unfriendly to mobile phone users.
This is especially true for professors like Zhang Hongcai who have poor eyesight.
In this way, Zhang Hongcai spent nearly an hour reading half of Doudou's Weibo today, and he probably understood Qiao Ze's thoughts.
Okay...
There is indeed no need for him to sell it...
He couldn't have imagined that Qiao Ze would use this method to make things happen like this.
He just browsed through the pictures briefly. The scope of these projects was actually very wide. He was not sure whether Qiao Ze's analysis was accurate, but based on his understanding of Qiao Ze, if it was not accurate, this young man probably wouldn't either. Will choose this method to make things worse.
Zhang Hongcai could even imagine how unstable the emotions within the Natural Resources Fund Management Committee and this year's review experts were at this time. He was even a little lucky that he was not selected to review those mathematics projects this year.
But at this time, I feel that the ones who are screwed are probably the professors who applied for these twelve projects...
Only Zhang Hong could understand this feeling.
For the vast majority of people, applying for outstanding youth and outstanding youth programs is not always smooth sailing.
For example, among the candidates this year, only Zhang Hong knew that five of them applied for the third time this year and finally got selected.
At this time, when Qiao Ze made such a fuss, these knife professors probably had their hearts set on it.
But it was obviously impossible to think of killing Qiao Ze at this time.
It’s not that Zhang Hongcai underestimated these professors.
A young scholar who has just solved the problem of the existence of solutions to the Yang-Mills equation - even if he is just a student - is something that these professors who are still trying to apply for the Outstanding Youth Award cannot afford to offend.
Then the only one who can cause trouble is the knife.
No, the professors behind the twelve projects that have been exposed are probably not the most anxious.
This year, the Department of Mathematics and Physics has approved a total of twenty-three applications, which means that the remaining eleven professors have probably started to recruit people at this time...

In addition, the Nature Foundation will probably take serious action. At this time, some people are probably going crazy, right?
Although Doudou's Weibo said that this will be a series, absolutely no one really wants Qiao Ze to turn this into a series.
…
Chen Cheng from Dongjiang University felt that everything that happened tonight was like composing a fairy tale.
The thing is very simple, he leaked the news in the group. The reason is just as everyone has analyzed: this year he was not selected for the third outstanding youth review.
Although he is only 40 years old this year and theoretically still has five years to apply for outstanding youth, people in the game actually know that if he fails to apply three times, there is basically no hope in the future.
Coupled with the news that Li Jiangao was lying on Dai Jieqing's hat, his mentality was naturally unbalanced.
Especially after learning that Shuangdan University was dissatisfied with Qiao Ze's application expert for forcing Li Jiangao to apply once and immediately put on the Outstanding Youth hat, he started to have other ideas. I just felt bad and made an anonymous complaint directly. I also found a few big Vs in Linhai to help me post the harsh words the professors usually said.
Although it cost some money, Chen Cheng felt it was worth it.
Of course, it's hard to say how meaningful this is. It doesn't mean that Li Jiangao can't rate him as an outstanding player, so he can leave his position.
But seeing Li Jiangao in a storm of doubts on the Internet only made Chen Cheng feel that he had a clear idea.
People, many times do things just to vent their anger, even if it is harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself.
It would be best if Xilin could start a fight with Linhai's Shuangdan, then maybe he would really have a chance.
But what he never expected was that Qiao Ze suddenly asked Doudou to post so many Weibo posts. The moment he saw the contents of these Weibo posts and probably studied the content contained in those pictures, Chen Cheng was completely confused.
Is this... something that humans can do?
Of course, someone who can get the title of professor is not a fool. He knows very well that when things have developed to this point, it is no longer possible for him to control them.
But at this time, he still had a sense of luck.
After all, it can be said that Qiao Ze has offended the entire Chinese mathematics community. Not only did he make all the applicants this year lose face, but he also made it impossible for the entire Natural Science Foundation of China judging panel to stand down.
No matter how powerful one person is and offends so many people at the same time, even if Xilin University of Technology wants to protect Qiao Ze, it will probably be disgraced.
Even Chen Cheng was secretly happy.
After being made such a fuss by Qiao Ze, maybe there will be a re-evaluation this year, and maybe there is hope for him.
But within two minutes, he was secretly delighted when news came that the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton had confirmed that Qiao Ze’s paper solved the existence problem of the solution to the Yang-Mills equation.
This was truly a bolt from the blue. The final blow knocked Chen Cheng unconscious!
Only a few minor issues have been solved, and everyone may not be too tolerant of Qiao Ze.
But if he is a 19-year-old young man who has solved the Millennium Problem, Chen Cheng suddenly feels that he may be the enemy of the whole world...
Suddenly, a sentence suddenly appeared in Chen Cheng's mind: "If you confess, you will be lenient, if you resist, you will be stern..."
…
On the campus of Xilin University of Technology, Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng were walking home.
After asking Doudou to post on Weibo what he had compiled in a day, Qiao Ze concentrated on answering a few mathematical questions for Su Mucheng, and then it was time to prepare to go back to rest.
Although the relationship between the two has surpassed that of ordinary campus lovers, when it comes down to it, this couple still knows how to exercise restraint.
For example, today both of them chose to go back to the dormitory to rest instead of going home.
Although there is a room for two people at home, it is definitely more comfortable to live at home than in the dormitory, but Qiao Ze is a person who values commitment, and Zhang Zhou and Lao Gu are already people who have to do math projects, but their abilities are still a little lacking. Being able to accumulate a lot of questions, Qiao Ze could help the two of them answer some of their doubts when he returned to the dormitory.
Anyway, it’s just a few words casually mentioned before going to bed, and then it is assumed that the two of them understand, and it does not require much energy.
As usual, he sent Su Mucheng to the women's dormitory first, and then returned directly to 408 after separation. To Qiao Ze's surprise, the three rare people in the dormitory were all there, including Chen Yiwen.
"Brother Qiao, are you back?"
As soon as Qiao Ze entered the door, he heard Zhang Zhou's flattering greetings.
To be honest, it's a bit over the top, especially when classmates who meet frequently use honorifics directly, which is actually not very comfortable.
Qiao Ze specifically raised this issue with Zhang Zhou and Lao Gu, but they still wanted to do this, and he had no choice.
"Well, are you here today?" Qiao Ze asked.
"Hey, don't mention it. My aunt Xiuxiu came to visit. She is afraid of the cold. So she huddled in the bedroom and didn't want to go out." Chen Yiwen sighed, then licked his face and joked: "What, Qiao Shen, aunt, you Do you understand?"
Qiao Ze was silent.
Fortunately, he didn't need to deal with this topic.
"What a fool you are. I, Brother Qiao, also have a girlfriend, and it was Su Mucheng who chased me. How can you not understand this? But you, a licker, a shame of 408, Brother Qiao, don't you? I know, before you replied just now, Lao Chen was on the phone for half an hour, and just now he ran out to buy brown sugar for someone, how disgusting!"
"Hey, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to someone who thinks of his left hand as his girlfriend. Only when you know which way do the girls in the dormitory go are you qualified to talk to me."
"hehe……"
"Okay, let's talk about your topic today?" Qiao Ze interrupted Zhang Zhou who was about to retort and said proactively.
If the three of them started bickering, he would have come back tonight in vain.
Although Qiao Ze didn't resist the relaxed atmosphere in the dormitory, it still took a little time.
"Well... let's talk about Doudou first. We can't understand the Weibo posts Doudou posted today. What's going on, why don't we talk about it in detail first?" Zhang Zhou took advantage of the situation and said to Qiao Ze. .
Learning is learning, but today this is obviously an explosive event in the academic circle, and it is difficult for people not to think about it.
Just when Qiao Ze was about to refuse sternly, the bedroom door was pushed open violently, and then Xu Dajiang rushed in wearing a black coat and an excited face.
"Qiao Ze, was that paper really written by you?"
"Huh?" Qiao Ze was slightly stunned. Although he could probably guess which paper Xu Dajiang was talking about, the paper hadn't been published yet and he hadn't mentioned it to anyone else. Even Li Jiangao probably didn't know. He was not sure for a moment whether what Xu Dajiang said was what he thought.
"That's it, that's the paper that proves the existence of the Yang-Mills solution." Xu Dajiang was so excited that his mouth began to slip.
"Oh, yes, but how did you know?" Qiao Ze asked.
"I knew it was you! Qiao Ze, why didn't I hear you tell me about such a big thing? It's not good for you, the school is completely unprepared! At least tell me in advance, since when did you even hide it from Uncle Li? ?" Xu Dajiang complained happily.
This time the school was indeed quite passive.
We are still preparing for the report meeting for Qiao Ze's last paper. We have already sent invitations to many famous domestic professors. Tonight, it suddenly came out that Qiao Ze solved the problem of the existence of solutions to the Yang-Mills equation. information.
It’s crazy, I can’t make the trip at all!
Who among the invited professors is still in the mood to listen to a lecture on another simple issue?
Importantly, the previously prepared report specifications were too conservative.
It is definitely not enough to only invite some domestic professors, and they are also concentrated in the field of mathematics.
Qiao Ze has advanced the entire theoretical academic community's understanding of the Yang-Mills equation.
It’s impossible to say that Mr. Yang will come to this lecture in person, and it will become a legend in the academic world, with such influence and appeal...
Xu Dajiang didn’t even dare to think about it!
I used to think that Qiao Ze said that he wanted Xilin Polytechnic University to be on par with Princeton. Although he really wanted to, as soon as he thought about the difference between public schools and private schools, Xu Dajiang still understood that Qiao Ze's idea was too idealistic.
But after hearing the news, Xu Dajiang suddenly felt that it might not be impossible!
It is not unbelievable for a big man to establish a school that has flourished for hundreds of years.
Xu Dajiang, who was still excited at this time, subconsciously ignored the reactions of the other three teenagers in the dormitory.
The three poor children were already suffering from dementia.
What does it mean?
Yang-Mills equation?
Has Qiao Ze solved it?
The confused thoughts of these three poor children could be seen in their dazed eyes.
Really, they are almost worshiping Qiao Ze as a god, but they can't be so powerful, right?
That was the most IQ-testing problem among the Millennium Problems, and it even involved basic physics. How could it be solved so silently by Qiao Ze?
Did the school even just find out the news?
What the hell...
Just when the emotions of the four people were already complicated to the point of confusion, Qiao Ze's calm voice penetrated their ears like a spell.
"I just solved the most basic part of the problem. I haven't even been able to find the solution to the equation. There's really no need to say it. And how do you know?"
"This... is the news from Edward Witten of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. He is one of the reviewers of your paper. Qiao Ze, what do you want me to say about you? This most basic question has been It has troubled the academic community for more than half a century!
This is really not a simple question! Let me beg you, next time, next time, really don’t do this, okay? At least give me a warning first so that I can be mentally prepared..."
