Chapter 323

The purpose of the Clay Mathematics Institute has obviously been achieved.

In order to recruit Gu Lu, major universities sent big-name figures in the field of digital mathematics to attend this award ceremony.

besides.

Some mathematicians who admired Gu Lu's reputation also arrived.

As a result, the number of attendees at the Cray Mathematics Research Award Ceremony reached an unprecedented number of more than 500, setting a record high!

Director Buddy and all the leaders grinned happily.

Inviting Gu Lu to participate in this awards ceremony was a very correct decision!

This is an opportunity...

A perfect opportunity to internationalize the Cray Prize for Mathematical Research.

…………

Accompanied by director Buddy's secretary, Gu Lu walked into the auditorium where the award ceremony was held.

The size of the auditorium is not too small.

But this time, an unprecedented 500 mathematicians came to watch the ceremony.

So it was almost full of people sitting there.

When Gu Lu walked in through the front door, he immediately caused bursts of exclamations from the mathematicians in the auditorium.

Most of these people had met Gu Lu at the International Congress of Mathematicians that just ended a few days ago.

Therefore, the moment Gu Lu just stepped into the auditorium, he was recognized by the mathematicians in the auditorium.

Listening to the bursts of exclamations in the auditorium, Gu Lu waved helplessly to say hello, and then moved forward to shake hands with Director Buddy who was facing him.

Director Buddy's face showed a smile like the Maitreya Buddha, "Professor Gu, you had a comfortable rest last night."

Gu Lu laughed and said, "Thank you, Director Buddy, for your concern. I have been in the United States for two years and there is nothing I am not used to."

"That's good, that's good." Director Buddy winked at the secretary on the side, then held Gu Lu's hand cordially and walked forward, "Professor Gu, it's getting late, let's take a seat!"

Gu Lu stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, smiled slightly and said, "Director Buddy, you invite me first."

Gu Lu's position was arranged in the first row.

And it's just to the left of Director Buddy.

On both sides of Gu Lu were the leaders of the Clay Mathematics Institute.

As for the other three mathematicians who were nominated for the Clay Mathematics Research Award together with Gu Lu, they were placed in the second row with some big names from universities.

His special care for Gu Lu has become clear.

There are still a few minutes until the awards ceremony starts.

Several leaders from the Clay Mathematics Institute chatted with Gu Lu.

Because we met at the reception banquet last night, and the Clay Mathematics Institute is already in a relatively neutral position in the mathematics community.

Gu Lu then laughed and chatted with several leaders.

…………

At seven o'clock sharp.

The award ceremony officially begins.

The scene fell silent.

The lights in the entire auditorium dimmed first, and then a beam of light shone on the stage.

The host in a tuxedo stepped out.

"Welcome to the Clay Mathematics Research Award Ceremony. On behalf of the Clay Mathematics Institute, I welcome you all!"

"As we all know, the Cray Prize for Mathematical Research is sponsored by..."

Bah bah bah bah.

The host began to introduce the history and evolution of the Cray Mathematics Research Award.

He also used many exaggerated rhetorical techniques to illustrate the value of the Cray Mathematics Research Award.

"...So far, the Cray Mathematics Research Award has been awarded thirty-seven times, and what is awarded today is the thirty-eighth Cray Mathematics Research Award trophy!"

"Having said so much, you may be tempted to know who will win this year's trophy! Don't worry, let me introduce to you the nominees for this year's Cray Mathematics Research Award.

Four mathematicians!”

"The first one is Professor Ens-Cole from the University of California, Berkeley. He is a well-known mathematician in the field of functional analysis. He has made outstanding contributions in the fields of nonlinear functional analysis and operator equations. He was famous for his work on operator algebra.

His theoretical breakthrough won the American Mathematical Science Progress Award!"

"The second person is Professor Mike Haskin from New York University. He specializes in the field of topology and is the first person in the field of singularity and catastrophe theory in the United States. Many of his papers have been included in four major journals. The concept of 'hausdorff fuzzy metric topology'

The proposer of.”

"The third one is Professor Bobby Lipton from the University of Chicago..."

Not surprisingly, the top three are all mathematicians from the United States.

Gu Lu is one of the few foreign mathematicians in the history of the Cray Mathematics Research Award.

After introducing the resume of the third mathematician, the host's voice suddenly rose a few points.

"As for the fourth mathematician, he is Professor Gu Lu from Yanjing University in China! Everyone must be familiar with this name, and many people know Professor Gu Lu's resume clearly, but here I still need to repeat

Let me introduce you."

"Professor Gu Lu is currently focusing on the two directions of geometry and number theory, and has many major scientific research achievements. He proved the arithmetic prime number conjecture, proposed the complex ring conjecture, and solved the two major problems of the integer point problem in the sphere and the minimal model program. In

A month ago, Professor Gu Lu won the Veblen Prize for his proof of Bab’s conjecture!”

The host introduced Gu Lu, whose resume was a bit thin, but it was enough to be called a luxurious one.

The small number of mathematicians present who did not know Gu Lu's words opened their eyes wide after hearing this and froze in place.

"Skuy!"

A mathematician from a certain island country couldn't help but marvel.

"I have already introduced the four mathematicians. As for which mathematician will finally win this year's Cray Mathematics Research Award, different people may have different candidates. Now, let us ask Director Buddy to announce this year's winner for us.

Award winner!”

"Professor Gu, get ready to go up and receive the award." Director Buddy whispered to Gu Lu beside him, then stood up and walked to the stage with a smile.

The waiter handed Director Buddy an envelope.

The name of the winner is written on the card in the envelope.

However, Director Buddy who was standing on the stage did not seem to be in a hurry to open the envelope, but instead smiled and greeted the mathematicians warmly.

"What's the ink stain on? Remove it quickly, don't get excited!"

"Haha, this is not exciting. The winner of this year's Cray Mathematics Research Award cannot be more obvious!"

"You mean...?"

"That's right, who else could it be besides Gu Lu!"

In fact, many mathematicians in the auditorium realized that there was no suspense about who would win this year’s Clay Mathematics Research Prize!

Because besides Gu Lu, there will be no other candidates.

If before the International Congress of Mathematicians, the other three mathematicians might be able to have a 50-50 tie with Gu Lu.

But now, those three people and Gu Lu have completely become two different levels of existence.

As long as the people at the Clay Mathematics Institute are right, they will not award the award to anyone except Gu Lu.

Sure enough, under the spotlight, Director Buddy opened the envelope.

Then he spoke loudly in front of everyone,
Chapter completed!
