They chatted until noon. After lunch, the three of them dispersed. They had dinner with Minister Zhang again. At the wine table, he communicated with Lu Qiujian in detail the process and content of next year's press conference.

Whenever Lu Qiujian felt that something was inappropriate, he would decisively remove it.￡∝

It was time to go home after the press conference. After dinner, Lu Qiujian booked a ticket to go home the day after tomorrow; his home is in a small city in the Northeast and there is no airport, so he must first fly to the provincial capital

, and then transfer to the train from the provincial capital to get home.

The next day, Lu Qiujian, accompanied by Minister Zhang, arrived at the press conference. He took a quick glance and saw that there were almost a hundred media outlets including TV, newspapers, and the Internet!

When Lu Qiujian came on stage, the flash lights were on; after Minister Zhang introduced the process of the press conference, he stepped aside. Lu Qiujian briefly introduced how he cracked the Poincaré conjecture, and then it was time for reporters to ask questions.

time.

At this time, it is natural to take care of acquaintances. Lu Qiujian gave the first opportunity to Li Xiao. He stood up and asked, "We all know the significance of Poincaré's conjecture now. At the same time, the American media has listed you on the list."

As a popular candidate for the next Fields Medal, are you confident in winning the award?"

Since the reopening in the 1970s and 1980s, after seeing the huge gap between themselves and the West, some people from all walks of life in China have begun to lose confidence and find ways to go abroad; others have caught up and slowly made progress in many fields such as sports and economy.

are catching up, but there are few achievements that can be ahead of the West at the forefront of science; Li Xiao’s words are also the biggest concern of reporters at the scene. They have great expectations that an orthodox Chinese can stand at the top of the scientific community to receive the award.

On stage.

Most people might be modest and give an ambiguous answer at this time, but Lu Qiujian chose to answer directly, "The cracking of the Poincaré conjecture will definitely leave a glorious page in the history of mathematics. I believe in my achievements."

Enough to win the Fields Medal!" If Perelman could win the award based on this achievement, couldn't he himself?

The media reporters were also surprised by Lu Qiujian's answer. They did not expect that Lu Qiujian would be so confident; it is not their fault. After all, there is indeed a huge gap between China's scientific community and foreign countries. We started so many years later than the West.

, middle age has been interrupted by various sports. Counting from the resumption of the college entrance examination, it will only take us less than thirty years to catch up with the West! To say that someone has achieved results that the West looks up to in such a short period of time, they have also

Can't believe it.

"Are you so sure? What if there is an accident?" Someone stood up and asked regardless of the order of the scene.

"If a scientist does not have confidence in his own results, it will be his tragedy! My confidence comes not only from myself, but also from the teachings given to me by the teachers at Beijing Normal University, and from the tireless pursuit in the scientific community for many years."

, At this point, Lu Qiujian took a deep breath before continuing, "After decades of pursuit, it is time to achieve results; I believe that after me, there will be Chinese scientists who will win the Lacks Prize, and the Nobel Prize."

I don’t think the time for scientific awards such as the Bell Prize will exceed fifteen years!”

Fifteen years! Nobel Prize! These two words made the reporter dizzy again. Even Minister Zhang next to him was sweating anxiously. How could he say this casually? What if there was no such thing?

Lu Qiujian's reputation was ruined!

Compared to the Fields Medal, the Nobel Prize is undoubtedly more prestigious. The reporters quickly started discussing it enthusiastically, and for a while they even forgot to continue asking questions.

Seeing that no one raised their hands, Feng Hongqi quickly ignored the fact that this was a press conference about the Poincaré conjecture. He quickly stood up and asked after getting permission, "There is less than a year left before the Olympics. Excuse me."

Will you participate in the Olympics? You said before that you would not participate in the NBA because it would affect your academic path. It only takes a short time to participate in the Olympics, and it seems that there is not much conflict with your plan!"

"Brother Yao also asked me this question before, but I didn't give a definite answer at the time! It's the same now. Before the Olympics, I have to prepare my graduation thesis and apply for a Ph.D. school, so I may not have time.",

Lu Qiujian neither agreed nor directly denied, "Well, this topic ends here. In the following time, I will only answer questions related to the Poincaré conjecture!"

"According to comments from the mathematical community, some details of your paper have not yet been completed, and it cannot be said that the Poincaré conjecture has been completely solved. Will you complete these tasks in the near future?" a reporter from Science and Technology Daily stood up to ask.

"That's what other people think. For me, the work is done!" I am much more reliable than Professor Thurston. If there are seven steps to solve this problem, I have already written four of them.

, the remaining three can be figured out with just a little effort; it would be great if Professor Thurston could write out two of them! If anyone can’t understand, Professor Thurston will despise their IQ.

, "Next I will shift the focus of my work to other directions!"

There are always those who find fault in press conferences. This time it was a gentle man who stood up. After receiving permission, he took the microphone and asked, "Hello, Mr. Lu, I am a first-level official at the New North China News."

Reporter Li Yifeng; I got a message through some channels

Information, it seems that Yale University submitted a proof paper on the Poincaré Conjecture before your paper was published. What is even more surprising is that the idea of ​​​​your paper seems to be similar to the paper submitted by Yale University! Can you please

What the hell is going on?"

What does it mean that my thesis idea is similar to the one submitted by Yale? Lu Qiujian's eyes narrowed slightly. This is to cause trouble!

Since he is here to cause trouble, there is no need to be so polite. He said coldly, "I would like to say four points about this issue:

First, Yale University did submit a paper almost identical to mine to Science;

Second, the reason for this situation is that a student at Yale University saw my submission through his mentor Ferrig who was a reviewer for "Science", and persuaded his mentor to reject my paper.

, committed plagiarism again and submitted it to "Science" again!

Third, the plagiarism incident at Yale University has been exposed, and the two plagiarists have also received the punishment they deserve. The ownership of this achievement should undoubtedly belong to me!
Chapter completed!
