Chapter 212 The whole world has to thank me again

"Try to do the test? What kind of test is this? The School of Mathematics at Yanbei University is testing this now?"

Chen Zhuoyang looked at the question, then looked at Qiao Yu, and his mind took a long time to wrap around.

It was mainly because Qiao Yu didn’t give him time to react.

As soon as the door opened, he was dragged into the room, then pushed into the chair in the study, and the newly created test questions were brought out from the computer for him to try to take.

“It has nothing to do with the School of Mathematics. I applied for a project, and I cannot completely decide who will be the participants in the project team. The Academy of Sciences will give recommendations, so I have to screen them.

I can't be forced to work with whoever they recommend, right? What if they push me to work with people who are just trying to get experience? So I think we need to take an exam. I'll set the questions.

At least you have to pass the test to join the project team. I don’t know the difficulty, so you should try these three questions first. I’ll see your accuracy rate so that I can have a benchmark for the next questions.”

Qiao Yu said immediately.

After listening to it, Chen Zhuoyang subconsciously withdrew his gaze from the question. This was too much trust. He didn't even dare to look at the question.

The key point is that he came here to seek benefits for his colleagues and to join the project team. If Qiao Yu knew this, he was not sure whether he would be qualified to look at these questions, let alone do them.

So Chen Zhuoyang quickly said, "Wait, Junior Brother, put the questions aside for a moment and listen to me first. What do I want to talk to you about?"

Qiao Yu glanced at the serious Chen Zhuoyang and asked, "Is your business more important than the question I asked?"

Chen Zhuoyang said helplessly: "That's definitely not the case! But I'm not sure if you can still read the questions you asked after you understand what I'm going to say."

Qiao Yu suddenly realized, smiled, and said nonchalantly: "It's not a big deal, haha, isn't it just that someone asked you to join my project team through the back door? Just do the questions first, and we'll talk about it after you finish them."

Looking at Qiao Yu who didn't care at all, Chen Zhuoyang knew that he was overthinking and finally focused his attention on the question.

In fact, even though I have become a mathematics professor now and my main focus is on research and teaching, I still have to solve various math problems.

However, the feeling is different when doing the questions asked by Qiao Yu.

"Then I just did it on manuscript paper?"

"Well, that's fine. You can use the manuscript paper on the table."

Chen Zhuoyang calmed his mind and began to examine the questions carefully. After thinking for a full ten minutes, when Qiao Yu was about to show an incredible expression on his face, he finally started to solve the first question.

Qiao Yu was originally standing beside Chen Zhuoyang while he was solving the problem, but as time passed, Qiao Yu was too lazy to stand beside him and keep an eye on him, so he simply took a book on quantum physics and started flipping through it, and soon he was immersed in it.

By the way, I also came up with two questions according to my own ideas.

"I'm done!" As Chen Zhuoyang said this, Qiao Yu looked up and out the window.

This guy came around two in the afternoon, and judging from the position of the sun, it was already at least five in the afternoon.

Qiao Yu picked up his cell phone and checked the time. It was already a quarter past five.

"No way? You spent more than three hours on these three questions?"

Hearing this question, Chen Zhuoyang just felt very aggrieved.

He thought that talking to Qiao Yu about this matter would take no more than an hour or two.

He had also agreed with Zhang Xiao that he would go to see her after he finished his work. If it was still early, they could even go to the park next door together. But when he got there, he was dragged to do homework.

He couldn't just mess around with what his junior brother had told him to do, so he had to calm down and do it. The questions were so difficult, and he had to go through several twists and turns. He spent almost 80 minutes on the first question alone...

"They are all proof questions. Many of them require careful thinking before you can start writing. Three hours is not too long, right? At least I finished all of them." Chen Zhuoyang defended himself.

Then he handed Qiao Yu the few pages of manuscript he had just used to solve the problem.

Qiao Yu took the manuscript and couldn't help but muttered, "No, Brother Chen, these are three basic questions. I was thinking of at least ten questions, and the exam time is only three hours."

Chen Zhuoyang just pretended not to hear it. He was used to it anyway.

Ever since Qiao Yu came to Yanbei, he has been hit hard. That period was really worse than death. It felt like there was no hope in life.

However, he has felt much better since he graduated with a Ph.D. and went out to work as a professor.

On the one hand, I have already determined that I am not that bad. At least my IQ is fine, even in college, I am better than many of my colleagues.

On the other hand, Qiao Yu has already won the Fields Medal without any controversy. Yes, just based on this point, everything he says is right, and he can even criticize anyone in the world.

In a sense, anyone who can win the Fields Medal is no longer a normal person, let alone someone who can win this award at the age of seventeen.

The former are beasts, and the latter are worse than beasts.

Born as a human, he had to give in to these non-humans. After all, guys like Qiao Yu were extremely rare. Thinking of this, Chen Zhuoyang felt nothing in his heart when he was nagged by a guy who was worse than an animal.

The good news is that although it took a little longer, Qiao Yu found that Brother Chen answered the questions well.

If one question is worth 10 points, I can get at least 28 points. Two points were deducted because one of the proof steps in one question was slightly flawed.

The main problem is that the definition of the covering sphere number N() of the modal path is not rigorous.

“You will lose two points. Look at this step. If the density function ρM(x) of a part of the modal path tends to in some local areas, resulting in discontinuity in the geometric structure of the path, then the calculation of N() will become ambiguous due to the path segmentation.

In particular, you need to further constrain the scale of , otherwise N() will not converge in the limit or there will be multiple covers, so the proof of fractal dimension cannot be completely closed. "

Qiao Yu casually pointed out the problem with Chen Zhuoyang's proof.

Chen Zhuoyang took it and took a look, then replied embarrassedly: "Indeed, I was a little impatient. If it was a formal exam..."

Halfway through his speech, Chen Zhuoyang suddenly realized that he would be even more anxious if it was a formal exam, and he was suddenly speechless.

"Ah... So these questions are still a little too difficult? If these are considered basic questions, there will be five advanced questions and two difficult questions in the remaining seven questions. Do you think the person recommended by the Academy of Sciences can finish them within three hours?" Qiao Yu asked. Chen Zhuoyang thought for a moment and replied, "I have been working on the generalized modal axiom system. I admit that I may not be that smart, but from what I have observed from other colleagues at Nanjing University...

Um… Anyway, the two people I plan to introduce to you today, can they get about 20 points in three hours? Well, I'm not sure. But if it's all about the modal axiom system, I think it's difficult. "

Qiao Yu sighed and said, "Well, they are all related. But the directions are different. In particular, the difficult questions I plan to ask will integrate the modal axiom system with some concepts of mathematical physics and quantum fields. For example, take a look at this question."

As he spoke, Qiao Yu handed over his phone, which contained the questions he had just edited while Chen Zhuoyang was doing them.

Chen Zhuoyang took the phone and read the question carefully. After thinking for a while, he looked at Qiao Yu and asked sincerely, "Junior brother, are you dissatisfied with the Academy of Sciences?"

"Huh?" Qiao Yu looked at Chen Zhuoyang in surprise.

"Are you deliberately messing with their mentality? It may take three hours to solve this problem. Anyway, I have no idea what to do after looking at the question.

You have to know that there is no longer a concept of a generalist in mathematics. People who are familiar with mathematical physics or study quantum physics may not necessarily have a deep understanding of algebraic geometry.

This is true even though algebraic geometry provides many tools for physical research. Although the Academy of Sciences recommends very talented researchers and professors, you are the only one in China who has won the Fields Medal so far. "

Chen Zhuoyang said seriously and earnestly.

At this time, he represented not only himself, but also the vast number of mathematicians in China who were striving for their ideals.

"Well, most of what you said is right." Qiao Yu nodded.

"Is there anything wrong?" Chen Zhuoyang asked unconvinced.

"I won the Fields Medal because there is no higher award in mathematics than the Fields Medal so far." Qiao Yu defended himself naturally.

Chen Zhuoyang opened his mouth, and then felt that he couldn't refute it. Apparently, his ability to flatter was still too conservative, which made his junior apprentice brother not very satisfied.

"But it doesn't matter. Well, tell me, what is it that brought you to Beijing to see me?" Qiao Yu waved his hand and asked listlessly.

"Well... well, didn't you guess it before? There are two colleagues, very good ones. Their main research direction is also algebraic geometry, and they want to join your project.

But I heard that the Academy of Sciences has very strict selection requirements this time, so I want to seize the opportunity, so I asked you if you can help recommend someone."

Chen Zhuoyang said shyly.

Qiao Yu nodded readily and said, "Okay, send me your name on WeChat and I'll recommend it directly."

"Ah? Well... Thank you, Junior Brother. You have helped me so much."

Qiao Yu agreed so readily that Chen Zhuoyang was a little surprised and even embarrassed.

Qiao Yu waved his hand and said, "It's no big deal! You just said such a simple question, they can only get 20 points in three hours, they will definitely not pass the exam.

By the way, go back and explain these three questions I gave them, and I will simplify the questions during the exam. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if they really scored 20 points, and you would be embarrassed.

Your friends should at least get 40 or 50 points in the exam, so that they can save face. Then you will also have face in Jinan University and be more popular. "

"what?"

Chen Zhuoyang was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "Well... this is not a good idea, right? What if their luck explodes during the exam and they really pass? What if the news gets out..."

Qiao Yu looked at Chen Zhuoyang with a look of disappointment and said, "No, Brother Chen, weren't you very smart when you were at Yanbei University? How could you ask such a stupid question?
We have been collaborating on research, and out of friendship with your colleagues, you learned that you would need to take an exam to be selected, so you explained to them some questions about the generalized modal axiom system. Isn't that normal?
I won't give out original questions in the exam. They won't know that you know the questions in advance. So as long as you don't tell anyone, who will know? As for the sudden burst of personality... do you think this is the college entrance examination?"

Qiao Yu's words made so much sense that Chen Zhuoyang was speechless for a moment. He began to worry that the bigwigs in the Academy of Sciences would be fooled by Qiao Yu to death...

It is obvious that although my junior fellow student won the Fields Medal and was forced to graduate by his supervisor, he still maintained a lawless student-like mindset.

The old-fashioned and rigorous style of doing things in the high-end academic world had no influence on him at all.

"I understand. Thank you, little brother." Chen Zhuoyang said gratefully.

"What's there to thank me for? I've delayed your appointment for an entire afternoon so that you can gain something. When I was in middle school, I told my classmates that if you give but don't get anything in return, it means that the person you give to is not a human being, or the thing you give to is wrong.

To be honest, this is how my girlfriend got me. She has done so much for me that I felt embarrassed to say no. I had always refused, but she finally got her way. Oh, I am just too kind-hearted. "

Chen Zhuoyang's mind flashed with the image of the cute little girl next to Qiao Yu on his seventeenth birthday, and he nodded subconsciously.

Qiao Yu has done so much for him, so whatever he says is what matters.

But to be honest, it is very normal for girls in Chinese high schools to admire boys who are good at studying.

"Well, Junior Brother, how about going to dinner together tonight?"

"Stop it. You finally came back to Beijing to have dinner with me? You don't want to go find Senior Zhang? Or do you want me to be a light bulb? Besides, you invited me, so why don't you invite Director Tian? If Director Tian is here, can you still eat this meal?"

"This……"

"Okay, go eat now. I have to finish all the questions tonight, and these questions are useless. I also have a lot of messy things to do.

You don’t know that there are still a lot of things to do in the early stages of this project. Not only is it about setting questions, I also have a very interesting idea that needs to be completed before the project team is established.”

Qiao Yu was so excited that he drove Chen Zhuoyang out of his study.

Are you kidding me? He would only get involved in the boring love activities of uncles and aunts if he had nothing better to do. It is no exaggeration to say that he is now full of motivation to do research.

For Qiao Yu, the process of setting questions is also a process of doing relevant thinking. He now feels more and more that Qiao Yu's quantum modal space is very promising.

Directly make geometric processing and topological processing the core technologies of future quantum computing.

The whole world has to thank him once again!
