Chapter 659 The Highest Level of Double Standards

Xishan No. 1 Courtyard.

Outside the window, the night was dark and the rain was pouring down, with large raindrops hitting the windowpane.

The heavy rain in the evening brought down the temperature that had finally risen during the day. The two young people snuggled on the sofa, wrapped in a light pink blanket, leisurely browsing various news articles online.

Xu Qingzhou ran his fingers through the girl's hair a few times, glancing at the various topics on Weibo. "It's quite lively."

The policies of the United States and other countries have undoubtedly caused quite a stir domestically.

In recent years, relations between the two countries have become increasingly tense due to the actions of the United States, and even ordinary people are paying close attention to these policy announcements.

Sure enough, the topic quickly rose to the top ten in terms of popularity.

"Cooperation is the only way to achieve a win-win situation. I personally think we can take a step back a little and not be enemies with them. In high-tech fields, the United States still has the advantage."

"The blogger is a typical example of someone who can't stand up after kneeling for too long."

"Pah~ They haven't even started fighting yet, and they're already sliding on their knees."

"What's there to be afraid of? Didn't the US use the same tactic decades ago, and we still made it through?"

"We are a major exporting country, and we are facing the contradiction of overproduction domestically. The hard decoupling by the United States will have a very big impact on us."

"A great man once said it well: 'Strike hard once to avoid a hundred blows. If you keep retreating, you will lose sooner or later.'"

"Wow, he's only 23, and his company is already on the US sanctions list, while I'm still having friendly conversations with my teammates in Honor of Kings."

"The trigger for this was the superconducting thin film that was very popular some time ago."

Of course, there are also dissenting opinions.

A prominent online figure commented: "Some people are too greedy, so I won't mention their names to avoid being attacked by their fans. When did the scientific research community start adopting the fan culture model?"

"Bullshit. Even without the superconducting thin film, the US would definitely have one reason or another to blockade China. This is the trend. Nine Leaks, you bought the account, didn't you?"

"You need to follow this dog to comment?"

A heated argument erupted in the comments section.

Inside a house in Kyoto.

Looking at the hundreds of comments that popped up in the comment section, the middle-aged man couldn't help but chuckle. If you ask what's the most talked-about topic right now, it's definitely starting a fight.

The patterns are easy to grasp. Given the gender divide, and in this era where a little self-reflection is acceptable, what's wrong with getting criticized?

living room.

Song Yao raised an eyebrow, ready to report the other party, but as soon as she clicked on the homepage, a 404 page appeared, showing that the other party had violated the rules of speech and had been banned.

"Wow, it seems the authorities have made their move." Xu Qingzhou laughed.

"Serves him right." Song Yao felt a sense of satisfaction.

Some self-media outlets often do inhumane things in order to get traffic, frequently using pictures as evidence to shock people and claiming that if they don't share it, they're not Chinese.

Whether you support it, oppose it, or remain neutral, it doesn't matter.

Xu Qingzhou and Song Yao didn't care much. They couldn't expect everyone to think the same way they did. With the development of Xia Guo's economy, the honeymoon period between Xia Guo and the United States was long over.

There wasn't much interesting news, so Song Yao decided to write her thesis for a while. Besides the thesis, she also had to adjust some management practices in the company according to Li Daiyue's advice, so she was very busy these days.

"What are you going for?"

"Write a thesis."

"It's already 8 o'clock, I'll write it tomorrow."

Xu Qingzhou was reluctant to part with the sweet and soft Song, the school beauty. "It's raining outside, and this kind of weather is perfect for snuggling together and watching TV."

Song Yao turned her head and glanced out the window, feeling a little tempted.

What movie do you want to watch?

"A masterpiece about human nature, wow~"

Song Yao gave him a whack on the head, looking at him with disdain: "Xu Qingzhou, can't you think of anything else?" "What am I thinking about? I'm talking about 'The Legend of 1900,' it tells the story of..."

Xu Qingzhou spoke at length and had already started watching the movie.

Song Yao pursed her lips, too lazy to pay attention to this person, and adjusted herself into a comfortable position in Xu Qingzhou's arms.

The movie is one-third of the way through.

"Don't touch me like that!"

Song Yao pulled someone's hand out from under their clothes.

"You were touching me just now."

Xu Qingzhou exposed Song Yao's evil deeds, and now the two of them are huddled together, with the girl's hands being even more restless than his.

"I didn't!"

Song Yao firmly refuted this and changed the subject, saying, "Don't talk, keep watching the movie!"

April 9, Thursday, Classroom 4114, School of Mathematics, Peking University.

After finishing her class, Xu Qingzhou picked up her bag and went out, heading to Gu Zhizhong's office next door.

"That's rare. It's been almost two months since you last came to visit me, hasn't it?"

Gu Zhizhong got up to make tea and invited Xu Qingzhou to sit down.

Xu Qingzhou didn't stand on ceremony with the old professor, and said with a smile, "I just finished a model a few days ago, and recently I've encountered some problems in the experiment. I'm spending all my time in the lab, so I'm quite busy."

"Don't think I'm nagging, but you young people shouldn't think that just because you're healthy you can overwork yourselves. You still need to balance work and rest. You may not feel it now, but when you get to our age, all sorts of health problems will appear."

Gu Zhizhong took a closer look at Xu Qingzhou; his dark circles were quite noticeable.

"Don't worry, we have it covered."

Xu Qingzhou nodded and took a sip of tea, saying, "This tea is different from the one I had last time."

"This is freshly arrived spring tea. If you want some, there's another jar over there. Take it."

Gu Zhizhong is very generous.

"No way, I don't know anything about tea, it would be a waste to take it." Xu Qingzhou shook his head with a smile.

Gu Zhizhong sipped his tea, glanced at the young man opposite him, and couldn't help but ask, "You've been doing quite a bit of work in physics lately, but have you made any progress in mathematics?"

"The progress of supersymmetric zeta function theory is almost zero, and it is still stuck at the design of transition rules before the new year."

Xu Qingzhou said helplessly.

He focused his energy on several projects in the laboratory and didn't really study the theory of supersymmetric zeta functions. Last year, he temporarily stopped at the step of designing the transition rules in the sieve method.

"I understand, those experiments must have given you enough headaches."

Gu Zhizhong smiled and nodded, then continued, "Your senior brother Su sent me an email. He has already derived the homogeneous equation for the three-dimensional Fano cluster (x^3 + y^3 + z^3 + w^3 = 0), and verified that its rational point distribution satisfies cryptographic requirements. He is planning to do the next step of research."

"The high-dimensional discrete logarithm problem, the rational point counting problem, and key generation and encryption algorithm design?"

Xu Qingzhou was fairly familiar with this. Su Kewei was working on the specific implementation path of the arithmetic properties and cryptographic applications of high-dimensional algebraic varieties.

Gu Zhizhong said, "That's roughly the direction. He's been able to make such smooth progress thanks to you."

"I only offered a suggestion; it's all based on Senior Brother Su's own research," Xu Qingzhou said modestly, shaking his head. He paused, then continued, "The difficulty is still considerable. Proving that cracking the encryption algorithm is equivalent to solving the HDL problem requires the use of advanced theorems in algebraic geometry."

"It's already pretty good."

Gu Zhizhong laughed: "If he can pull it off, he'll probably be able to at least get promoted from assistant professor to associate professor."

The salaries of assistant professors and tenured professors are vastly different.

As a mentor, I am naturally happy to see my students, on whom I have placed high hopes, achieve such success.
