Chapter 539 Poor Witten(2/2)

In the world of physics, making a bet is not a rare thing. Especially for Wilzek, who is keen on betting on various things, inviting people to bet is not a very strange thing.

Wilzek ​​smiled and said: "A few years ago, in 15 or 16 years, when he was still studying at Princeton, he went to CERN to work and research."

"At that time, I made a bet with Edward Witten, betting that he could win both the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize before we left this world and create a new history."

"The result was obvious. I won. Only a short time later, he won both the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize in 2018."

"For this reason, Witten also lost to me a thousand meters of gold and the request to play a real-name guest role in my next book, although I haven't figured out how to write about him yet."

"So, do you want to make a bet with me?"

Hearing this, Tillman's mouth twitched slightly.

Poor Witten.

"No, I'm not interested in such things as betting."

After thinking for a while, although he felt that it would be difficult to get inspiration for a world-class conjecture problem at a report meeting, Tillman still declined the invitation to bet.

He has no interest in being written into a book by this guy. God knows how he will fabricate himself.

"It doesn't matter, this time we will only bet one thousand meters of gold." As if knowing that he would refuse, Wilzek ​​quickly chased after him and said.

After looking at him, Tillman thought for a while and asked curiously: "Then how do you plan to prove that he was not in a daze just now but was thinking about a certain problem and gained inspiration?"

Wilzek ​​grinned and said with a smile: "Of course I have my own way, and the results will be available today, so do you want to come?"

"If it's just one thousand meters of gold, I also want to see if what you said is really that magical."

Tillman shrugged and replied that one thousand meters of gold was nothing to him.

Moreover, his curiosity was aroused by Wilzek's words.

In such a major mathematical proposition, in front of thousands of mathematicians and physicists, just to withstand such huge pressure and complete the report perfectly is already very good.

If you can still get inspiration for world-class conjecture problems at a report meeting, no one will believe it if you tell me this. It is too unbelievable.

"OK, then it's settled!"

Wilzek ​​clapped his hands, raised his right hand with a smile, and looked at Xu Chuan, who was announcing the question-and-answer session on the reporting table.
