"Mr. Grigory Perelman should win the first New Directions Award in Mathematics for his outstanding contribution to the Lie group problem in the past year!" When the award speech sounded, there was thunderous applause and the photographer's

The shutter button kept clicking.

Perelman didn't seem to like the occasion very much. After receiving the medal and check, he simply said thank you and left the stage in a hurry. Some reporters didn't even have time to take photos.

The second winner, Terence Tao, was different. His free and unrestrained manner when talking on stage was the polar opposite of Perelman. Coupled with his elegant appearance, he instantly became the darling of the media.

Lu Qiujian asked a total of ten questions, so there are ten awards prepared this time. It is a pity that only one year has passed, and mathematicians have just begun to shift their research directions, so that in the past year

There are not many achievements that meet the criteria for awarding the prize, and only four mathematicians from different countries are eligible to win this year.

In addition to Perelman and Terence Tao, there is also a young scholar from France who won the award for his fundamental contributions to set theory; as for the last medal, it fell into the hands of a Chinese mathematician who is studying under Academician Qiao

Liu Pengbo, a Ph.D. student, won the award for his achievements in quantum algorithms.

When accepting the medal, Liu Pengbo mentioned Lu Qiujian's name again, "When I first saw Dr. Lu's speech, I became very interested in quantum algorithms. Later, my supervisor verified a certain quantum algorithm through a supercomputer.

After more than a year of hard work, I finally achieved some success. I would like to express my special thanks to Dr. Lu for pointing out the way forward for me."

"Old Qiao is really lucky!" Academician Gu looked at the young man on the stage with some jealousy and said to Academician Yang; Hey, why is there no such a number one among his students?

"Haha, in a few years you will be jealous of Lao Ren again! He treats the three students of Xiao Lu as his treasures, asking for help all day long. When they graduate, they may join Professor Ren!"

Academician Yang secretly regretted, why was he so slow to respond in the first place?

"That's not necessarily the case!" Academician Guo interjected, "With Xiao Lu's help, it will be easy for them to go to Princeton or the Ecole Normale Supérieure in France after graduation. Will they stay in China? Besides, when they graduate from undergraduate degrees,

I'm afraid Xiao Lu will come back from Europe, and he might have to take care of them by then!"

"Although it only takes more than two years to get a doctorate, Xiao Lu has now gained the reputation of Nottingham University in Cern. Even if he graduates, he may not return to China within a short time, right?" Academician Yang retorted.

"It's possible!" The three of them all turned their attention to Lu Qiujian, speculating on his future movements. Cern's conditions can be said to be among the best in the world. If it were them, they would probably be in trouble in a short time.

I couldn't bear to come back.

Because there were only four awards to be awarded this year, the award ceremony ended quickly. Then it was time for the four winners to explain their academic thoughts. The reporters were confused, but the mathematicians present were speechless.

I immediately cheered up and listened to every word they said attentively, for fear of missing something.

The process of this award ceremony was much shorter than the previous Poincaré Conjecture press conference. After the four of them finished their reports, it was basically over; of course, the Capital University, which is willing to stay for exchanges, is very welcome.

So Lu Qiujian once again became a hot spot surrounded by mathematicians, especially those who were interested in the ten questions he raised. They all came up with questions that had puzzled them for a long time to ask him for advice.

Lu Qiujian did not reject anyone who came and answered all the questions they asked, which greatly surprised the remaining mathematicians. Those who had taken a step earlier couldn't help but beat their chests and fell into deep regret after hearing this.

After dealing with these people, Lu Qiujian was not in a hurry to leave immediately. Instead, he called three students, Ye Chu, Wang Wen and Xiang Zhen, over. It had been half a year since he went to Europe! It had been almost a semester since he left them.

It's just that communication over the Internet is not always smooth. Let's take a look at their recent progress.

"Let's talk about what you have learned recently?" Although he is a few years older than them, Lu Qiujian has now become a master figure in the mathematics world. These three students are all a little nervous in front of him.

"Let me talk first!" Ye Chu, the oldest among them, stood up and said, "I have been reading according to the books you gave me recently, including Maurice Klein's "Ancient and Modern Mathematical Thought", Pierre Georges-

"A Century of Mathematics: 300 Major Mathematical Problems of the Past 100 Years" by Odifreddi

"Yes." Lu Qiujian nodded, "The reason why I let you read these books now is to help you deepen your understanding of the development of mathematics and choose the most suitable path for you!"

Seeing that they seemed enlightened, Lu Qiujian continued, "It is not important to be familiar with those theorems and formulas, nor is it important to understand what problems are urgently needed to be solved. What is important is to understand the way of thinking of those great mathematicians through these words.

, to understand how they think about problems. This is the most important purpose for you to read these books."

"Okay, I've said almost everything I need to say!" Lu Qiujian stood up and took his backpack, "This is the gift you have been talking about. Ye Chu, didn't you say you like Kahn? This is his signature.

Gloves, he wore these gloves in the last Champions League game!"

"And Xiang Zhen, this is a Hermès scarf. Didn't you see it? You kid, you found a girlfriend just after entering college? But she is much better than your two senior brothers!" Lu Qiujian looked at some with a smile.

Sorry Xiang Zhen.

"Well, I asked Beckenbauer to get the model of the racing car that Schumacher drove!" This gift was the most labor-intensive.

After handing out the gifts, looking at their eyes shining with joy, Lu Qiujian remembered that they were still teenagers of eighteen or nineteen years old! Well, he seemed to be only twenty-two, so he could be called a teenager, right?

After hurriedly dealing with matters in the capital, Lu Qiujian did not even bother to go home and embarked on the journey back to Europe. This time he did not go back to Munich, but went directly to Geneva; the summary of the last experiment had come to an end.

It’s almost time to formulate a plan for the second collision experiment! Don’t miss the opportunity you finally got from Evans! (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
