When Qiao Ze finished speaking, the big guys looked at each other. From their point of view, they really didn't understand what Qiao Ze meant.
"...Professor Xu's future work will be to help me sort out relevant concepts and examples of superspiral space algebra. If you are interested, you can also participate in this work."
After pondering for a moment, Lot Dugan, who knew Joe Ze best, took the lead in asking: "First question, Joe, you don't plan to participate in this work."
Qiao Ze shook his head. Since communicating with Zhang Hongcai, he has become accustomed to the fact that mathematics professors are not very good at understanding daily conversations.
However, in view of the courtesy that this big boss always gave him, he still said one more thing: "I made an agreement with Professor Xu that I will give him all the previous manuscripts on superspiral space algebra."
"I still don't quite understand, what do you need to do?" Peter Schulz spread his hands and asked.
"The issues raised by the Clay Research Institute have not yet been resolved." Qiao Ze answered frankly.
"I think at least at this stage, no one understands superspiral space algebra better than you. As for the mathematical description of the mass gap hypothesis... Of course, we all really hope to see this problem solved as soon as possible, but this is incompatible with the simultaneous development of new disciplines. It’s not inconsistent with tidying up.”
Edward Witten said seriously.
For a scholar who has published more than 350 books, these words of Edward Witten are powerful.
The progress of many theories into academic research relies on the continuous academic summary and in-depth exploration of the conclusions that have been researched.
"That's you, I don't need it." Qiao Ze pointed to his head and said.
His original intention was that the useful parts of superspiral space algebra for solving problems were already in his mind, but the combination of this sentence and this action could obviously cause misunderstanding. Su Mucheng was not around for this exchange today.
So when he saw that the old man looked unhappy, Qiao Ze kindly explained: "I pay more attention to efficiency."
"Haha, okay, efficiency is indeed very important, but I still don't quite understand, so what do you want us to do mainly when we join?" Lott Dugan started to smooth things over.
Although it currently seems unlikely that Qiao Ze is willing to go to Princeton, he still hopes that the relationship between the two parties can be maintained.
"There are relatively few people in our institute now, and it will be difficult for Professor Xu in the early stage. To complete the theoretical foundation and understand its mathematical principles, properties and applications, we need more examples to conduct case studies, and develop visualization tools to improve its accessibility. Sex, it takes so much work.”
Qiao Ze replied sternly.
Lot Dugan continued to ask: "Okay, so what are the benefits to us?"
Qiao Ze replied: "Lifelong honorary professor of Xilin Institute of Mathematics."
This benefit...
Several people laughed.
Xu Changshu, who was sitting next to Qiao Ze, felt a little embarrassed at this moment.
"Well, that's really not very attractive." Peter Schulz smiled and said.
Qiao Ze thought for a while and said, "Forget it then."
"Forget it? What do you mean?"
"Oh, forget it."
"Huh? I don't quite understand."
Qiao Ze glanced at Charles William, who had just spoken, and explained calmly: "Previously, the staff said that they very much hoped to systematize this research, and Professor Xu also said the same, so I thought you were willing. Do the job. I made an error in judgment and I'm sorry."
"So...what do you mean?" Charles William asked with a frown.
It has to be said that everyone in the room felt that non-academic communication with Qiao Ze was very tiring.
At the report meeting, when describing the proof process, although Qiao Ze spoke very briefly, he could at least explain the concepts clearly and even emphasize the key parts.
But in the current exchange, it seemed that even a few more words made him feel tired, making it difficult for people to follow his train of thought.
It is said that in a math class, you can’t understand what is being said in the blink of an eye.
Qiao Ze used this traditional mathematical skill in daily communication.
Even if you listen to a few words, you will have no idea what this guy is talking about.
Even if he listened to the whole process, it was difficult to fully understand what this young man meant.
It's a pity that Xu Dajiang is not here at this moment, otherwise he would probably say: "This world needs Su Mucheng's emotion."
After all, Su Mucheng was really professional when it came to understanding Qiao Ze's meaning.
It's just that Su Mucheng couldn't do her best today. The professors spoke a little vaguely and communicated entirely in English. The girl didn't dare to interrupt rashly.
Qiao Ze glanced at Charles William in surprise and replied, "Just give up on this matter."
"Give up? You don't plan to develop superspiral space algebra into a complete subject? Just like calculus?" Peter Schulz asked in surprise.
"right."
Qiao Ze nodded and replied, then stood up and began to see off the guests: "That's it for today. Goodbye."
This is an extremely simple thing for Qiao Ze. Everyone wants to delve deeper into this subject, and of course he doesn't mind pushing it.
But the other party was not as interested as he thought, so he naturally gave up.
We all study mathematics and physics, and we are equal in terms of personality. If we can cooperate, we will cooperate. If we can't, we will see each other again.
This is how the logic of the world should be.
As long as it wouldn't affect his research, Qiao Ze never thought about forcing others to do something for him.
It can be as small as Xuchangshu coming to Xilin; Liu Chenfeng works as a driver for Su Mucheng and Lu Xiuxiu, and they carry all the big and small bags at their request; as big as the cooperation with Youwei and the Institute of Optoelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. They are all requested by the other party.
Speaking of which, under the advice of many people today, it is extremely rare that Qiao Ze is willing to find these academic masters to actively promote this matter.
But since the effect is not good, of course he will not persist.
Anyway, for Qiao Ze, it doesn't matter whether others understand or not, as long as he understands.
It's just that others were obviously not very adaptable to Qiao Ze's style, and there was even a delay in their brains for a period of time, and they didn't react very well.
But when the host stood up and said "good bye".
After all, he could only stand up and say goodbye.
Fortunately, it still paid off for Lot Dugan.
"Qiao, should the paper on the Yang-Mills solution be submitted to the Annals of Mathematics?"
"good."
By agreeing so readily, does it mean that this young man is not angry?
This made Lot Dugan even more incomprehensible.
If you are not angry, who are you driving away? !
…
"What do you mean, Joe?"
"Huh? Let us help him sort out the superspiral space algebra. This is indeed a very meaningful task." Edward Witten said expressionlessly.
I just met Qiao Ze, and I actually wanted to talk about the understanding of this new algebra, but Qiao Ze didn't talk about this direction, so why did we end up confused.
From the beginning to the end, he seemed to have suggested that Qiao Ze should participate in the compilation of academic works on new algebra, and then disappeared after being rejected?
"This work is indeed very meaningful, but his attitude...does he really not intend to do it?" Peter Schulz said in surprise.
Open up a new subject...
In academia, this is a foundational matter.
All students doing related research in the future must learn Qiao Ze’s theory. Even many of the formulas in it will be named after Qiao Ze, such as Qiao Ze's first theorem of superspiral space algebra.
This is something that many theorists have dreamed of dreaming about, but why did it fall apart in just a few words?
"So what did you mean by benefit?" Charles William asked.
"Joze should understand. I have always hoped that he could come to Princeton. If he is willing to come, the entire Institute for Advanced Study can participate in this work. Right, Edward?" Lott Dugan glanced at Edward Witten said generously.
At least in his opinion, Harvard's mathematics department is definitely not comparable to Princeton's.
"Oh, obviously Qiao Ze didn't mean this."
"Maybe it's just a test? I still don't believe he will give up this work." Peter Schulz shook his head and said.
"Look, if we join, it will definitely be beneficial to the future promotion of superspiral space algebra. Maybe we should calm down."
"Hehe... maybe."
…
In the lounge, only Qiao Ze and Xu Changshu were left.
"I won't do this work for now. When you come next semester, you can do some research on the slicing method. I have a feeling that the slicing method can better operate the Riemann zeta function."
"Are you really not going to dig deeper into new algebra?" Xu Changshu was still in a daze.
"Um."
Qiao Ze nodded and added: "Later, when the paper is published, more people will take the initiative to study the unique properties of superspiral space and find ways to verify it. It can always be developed. This work will not We definitely need to do it.”
"But that may delay several years or even longer." Xu Changshu advised.
"It doesn't matter." Qiao Ze replied.
"Then what if someone takes the initiative to come to you?" Xu Changshu was still a little unwilling.
"People cannot escape the physiological development cycle, and no one can finish everything. I have always believed that we should do more new things while the brain is most active. If a mathematical tool is really useful, it will naturally continue to develop. No Need to be considerate."
Qiao Ze emphasized seriously.
Well, he is really patient with Xuchangshu.
After all, he gave up his bright future at Yanbei University and came to Xilin to do academic research.
If he hadn't had some ideas in his mind to make the construction of Xilin Mathematical Institute look like something, he wouldn't have bothered to explain so much.
In fact, those people just rejected his proposal, which made Qiao Ze feel pretty good.
This way at least he doesn't need to be distracted by these things.
"Um……"
Xu Changshu wanted to say something, but when he saw Su Mucheng, who was sitting behind Qiao Ze, suddenly winking at him, he finally took back the words that had reached his throat: "By the way, I have almost completed the procedures here. This time I don’t plan to go back to Yanbei, I can report to the research institute tomorrow.”
"Okay, Dean Xu will arrange it."
"Actually, it has been arranged. In addition, I am actually also very interested in the Riemann zeta function."
"Then starting tomorrow, I will send the information to your email."
…
After watching Xu Changshu leave, Qiao Ze sighed.
Sure enough, the path of theoretical scholarship is destined to be lonely.
"Brother Qiao, actually I think Professor Xu is right, and he seems to be doing it for your own good."

When there were only two people left, Su Mucheng began to express her opinions.
Although she didn't say anything when they just communicated.
However, after listening to the whole conversation between Qiao Ze, Xu Changshu, and Mr. Yang, it seemed that everyone hoped that he could build the framework and system of the new algebra as soon as possible.
It's just that Qiao Ze seems to have different ideas from everyone else.
Fortunately, Qiao Ze was willing to explain more to Su Mucheng: "But it doesn't make sense to me."
"Huh? Why?"
"It will take at least three months to establish a framework so that everyone can understand the meaning of new algebra. Uncle Li's doctoral supervisor has passed the assessment, and the results will be available before the year. I should graduate in three months."
"Huh? I didn't even hear what Dean Xu said. I will graduate from undergraduate degree in three months?"
"No, I graduated with a doctorate."
"How is this arranged?"
"After school starts, I will graduate with my undergraduate degree, enroll in Uncle Li's program to study for a combined master's and doctoral degree, and graduate directly after completing my doctoral thesis."
"Uh? Isn't it too hasty?"
"I asked for it for Uncle Li's benefit. I made too many things during my Ph.D. that would embarrass Uncle Li. But it won't happen after graduation." Qiao Ze explained carefully.
The smart girl suddenly realized.
This is indeed the best solution.
Not to mention embarrassing Li Jiangao during his Ph.D., the last time he reported the incident anonymously, some comments on the Internet made Su Mucheng feel quite embarrassed for Li Jiangao.
But it will be different after graduation.
If the children trained by the tutor become independent, the tutor will not feel embarrassed if they produce any results in the future, and they will even feel proud of them.
Wherever you go, you can hear your chest saying, Look, we trained this kid.
It can only be said that Qiao Ze thought too carefully about Li Jiangao.
"Brother Qiao!"
"Um?"
"You are so gentle and considerate!"
"..."
"By the way, Brother Qiao, what are your plans after graduation? Dean Xu, aren't you afraid that you will run away?"
"Principal researcher at Xilin Institute of Mathematics."
"Oh, no wonder the school is so anxious to build the research institute. Then Brother Qiao, will you teach us after you graduate with your doctorate?"
"Researchers are not responsible for teaching, but they can lead graduate students."
"Why……"
Su Mucheng sighed, but after thinking about it, she realized that the school's arrangement couldn't be more considerate.
There is really no need for Qiao Ze to be a professor. Asking him to teach undergraduates would be torture for both parties, so why bother?
Excellent scholars may not necessarily become qualified teachers.
…
There's really not much to say about the grand dinner.
It's just a large buffet, or a buffet abroad.
Qiao Ze also came to the scene just as Xu Dajiang promised.
I did chat with several scholars about some issues related to Yang-Mills theory, but that was all.
To be honest, the five-hour report meeting did not allow everyone to have a deep understanding of the new algebra proposed by Qiao Ze, so for Qiao Ze, there was actually nothing to talk about in depth.
You can't even fight for that.
As for asking for advice humbly, there is no need.
Except for Su Mucheng and Li Jiangao, Qiao Ze didn't have much patience with anyone else.
The specific performance is to deduce a certain result from a certain condition, and I like to use the word "obviously" to express it. Coupled with Qiao Ze's consistent thinking, as long as he talks about any issue once, no matter how much "obviously" is used, he will assume that the other party already understands it.
As for the most important attribute of this kind of buffet, in terms of social interaction, after the other party talks a lot, he replies: "I'm not good at effective communication." It's enough for most people to stay away from Qiao Ze.
A scholar with an eccentric personality is destined to be unpleasant.
Fortunately, Qiao Ze never seemed to need other people's likes.
The most troublesome thing was the editors who asked Qiao Ze for manuscripts.
Fortunately, Su Mucheng can help deal with it.
Although Qiao Ze has no plans to change the journals he submits to due to the force of habit, there is no need to tense up with other journals.
In short, it is best not to offend people, Su Mucheng will always step in to deal with them.
It's not that Qiao Ze likes to offend people, but that many times he doesn't feel that he has offended people, but others will feel that they have been offended.
At the final dinner, Qiao Ze quickly ate something and then quietly left the banquet with Su Mucheng.
For some people, this kind of situation can be like a fish in water, while for others, it is difficult to adapt to it after all.
…
"Brother Qiao, Davis from Science magazine said that he wants to arrange an exclusive interview for you and put you on the cover."
"Rejected?"
"Um."
"Don't you want to be the cover star?"
"no point."
"Right."
"But today is very popular on the Internet. Today, the entire Internet is studying the Young-Mills theory and the quality gap hypothesis. Some people predict that you will definitely win the Fields Medal in two years. Hehe, the youngest Fields in the world Winner."
"no point."
"This doesn't make any sense? You didn't seem to think so before."
Qiao Ze replied: "I used to think that this kind of recognition was meaningful. But after this report meeting, I feel that I don't need others to recognize whether I am successful or not."
Su Mucheng blinked, probably capturing the psychological trajectory of Qiao Ze's understanding of the world.
It’s over…
Qiao Ze probably realized that he was special, and his thoughts became even more indifferent.
This is really not fun.
So on the way back to school, Su Mucheng also became serious.
"Brother Qiao, your idea is wrong."
"Um?"
"Do you feel that you gave a very detailed report in the report, but not many people seem to understand you? Do you feel that even the top scholars in this world are not as powerful as you imagined?" Su Mucheng asked.
Qiao Ze said nothing.
"Then have you ever thought about a question, how long did it take you to study this topic? More than a month, Brother Qiao, it took you more than a month to make up for a lot of things before you could finally get the results. But you only told everyone How long did you talk about? It shouldn’t be more than five hours, right?
For a brand new mathematical system, even if it is to allow these academic masters to have a deeper understanding of the system, five hours is too short, right? And you didn’t explain your understanding of this mathematical system step by step at all. Even so, some people followed your thinking. Isn’t this enough?
You thought about the problem for more than a month before you got the results, so that others can have deep insights into the system of your thinking in five hours. Isn't it too hard for you? "
Qiao Ze was stunned.
I feel like what Su Mucheng said makes sense.
"Actually, today I feel that those big guys were all geniuses similar to you when they were young. Especially Schultz, he sent you an email at noon and talked about some of his understanding, which you also think is right. . You have been thinking about it for more than a month and talking for five hours, but he can understand so much. Isn’t this powerful?”
Qiao Ze nodded...
Well, some authorities are confused.
From this point of view, these big guys are indeed very strong and somewhat alert. He seems to be too proud.
"Well, you're right."
"Hey, Brother Qiao, of course you are the best, but I think recognition is still necessary. It should be your honor, and it has nothing to do with being defined by others, don't you think? It's like Uncle Li should be an academician. identical.
Even if you think some academicians are not good enough, you need high-level academicians like Uncle Li to improve the average level. Rather than feeling like this is pointless, right? "
"Yes." Qiao Ze nodded. If what the people around him said made sense, he would still listen.
For example, what Su Mucheng said today makes sense.
"So, Brother Qiao, actually compared with the world's top geniuses, you are not much better than them. You are very ordinary. At most, you are younger than them. And maybe with your inspiration, they will stand better than them in the future. You are taller, so you must not be proud." Su Mucheng said seriously.
"Okay." Qiao Ze nodded in agreement.
But there was one thing that Qiao Ze didn't say.
He never wanted to compete with anyone, because his goal was not to be stronger than others.
…
After the fermentation during the day, Qiao Ze, an ordinary guy, finally caused a wave of popularity on the Internet again.
After all, no one could have imagined that a would-be high school graduate who was almost accused of academic misconduct half a year ago would suddenly give everyone such a big surprise at this time.
Millennium problem...
Was he solved like this by a young Chinese man?
He even became the scholar most likely to promote academic unification?
Qiao Ze is only nineteen years old!
Although most ordinary people simply do not understand the significance of solving the Yang-Mills equation, let alone the difference between solving it and finally solving the mass gap hypothesis.
But since it is one of the seven millennium problems that the Yankees have publicly offered a bounty to the world, and it has also been certified by a group of big-name theoretical physicists as the most difficult problem in the world, this is enough to make many people feel proud. .
Especially in this special period when most people have realized that the world is not what they imagined, and the village chief of the so-called global village is not as polite, respectful of contracts, and advocating fairness as they imagined in the past.
Unsurprisingly, at least on this night, the Internet directly praised Qiao Ze to the level of almost the number one scholar in the world.
Unexpectedly, but also reasonably, it was Doudou’s comment section that exploded first.
"Doudou, what do you think of Qiao Ze's public resolution of the Yang-Mills theory today?"
"Hmph... I'm too lazy to comment on something as natural as drinking water for dad! It's a waste of computing power, dear!"
