The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

In September 1989, a large crowd gathered in Felteweg, a small border town in Eastern Europe.

"What do you want? Get out, fuck, or I'm going to shoot!"

The Sower family from Budapest, with their entire family in tow, looked anxious and weary as they stared ahead.

Next to Sower were ordinary people who were all pale and thin.

Judging from their facial expressions, it's easy to see that these people haven't had a proper meal in a long time.

They are in so much pain.

The Sower family heard that they could leave from Feltwy and travel to Western Europe.

But having finally arrived here, they discovered that it wasn't as simple as they had imagined.

Some people have already taken up arms. Those who want to leave must pay a certain amount of money to buy a so-called pass before they can leave.

"Damn soldiers, greedy officers, they all deserve to die, they're so corrupt."

Just then, a young man named Bailed next to Sower stared fiercely at the soldier holding a long spear in front of him and muttered something under his breath.

Sower quickly pulled his wife and daughter to the side.

People like Bailey are too dangerous; it's best to stay away from them.

Otherwise, bullets don't have eyes when they come flying at you.

However, at this moment, Bailey was going all out.

Bailey crouched down a little lower, then slowly pushed through the crowd and walked forward.

Only then did Sower notice that the other man was holding a stone in his hand and had a bulging waist, indicating that he was carrying a weapon.

Bang!
Before Sower could react, chaos erupted ahead.

As Balad threw a stone, it struck a soldier with a gun.

Many people were agitated and rushed forward in a swarm.

The soldiers who once held long spears have turned from lions into lambs to the slaughter.

Amid the chaos, the Sower family followed the main group and quickly passed through the checkpoint.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Bylaide rushing into the next room.

After that, he was swept away by the crowd.

A large number of people left Feltwy and came to Western Europe.

After arriving in Eisen, the Sower family did not stop but continued on their way.

After half a month of wandering, the Sower family finally arrived in Wolfsburg.

At this point, every member of the Sower family had lost a considerable amount of weight.

But their eyes were full of surprise, because it was easy to find a job here, and the wages were very high.

In fact, the city of Wolfsburg is currently experiencing an exceptionally tight labor market due to the appreciation of the Mark caused by the Plaza Accord and the Louvre Accord.

Now, a significant amount of cheap labor has emerged in this city from the other side.

This greatly alleviated the predicament.

The Sowers quickly found the jobs they wanted and settled down smoothly in the city of Wolfsburg.

There are many, many people like the Sower family.

Although they left from Budapest, they were not originally from Budapest, but were natives of Kostyan, near Berlin.

They've now gone in a big circle and finally returned to Western Europe.

Harbin Institute of Technology, Weizigou Campus, Secretary's Office.

"So that's the situation in Europe now? Will the Want Want Group's Mercedes-Benz and other car manufacturers shift their focus back to Europe?"

The situation in Europe has changed dramatically. Although the process seems slow, it is currently like the calm before a reservoir is released, seemingly without any ripples.

In reality, it's already on the verge of exploding.

Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi have all established joint venture factories in Harbin.

Previously, the reason why the three Mercedes-Benz companies invested in building factories in Harbin was not only because Want Want Group became the parent company of these three car companies, but also because of Germany's own economic predicament.

At this point, the situation in Germany seemed to be changing.

That's why Tong Jianwei, the top official in Harbin, was so nervous.

However, he came to Harbin Institute of Technology at this time because Wang Duoyu was in seclusion, so he could not see him and could only discuss this matter with Liu Deben and Lü Gongliang.

"Secretary Kang, we don't know the specifics, but I think Mercedes and the other two car companies have invested so much in our Harbin, they certainly won't move away easily, right?"

Liu Deben comforted him.

He didn't want to get involved in this matter.

Because it has nothing to do with him, after all, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi are all companies under the Want Want Group.

Even Liu Deben and his group were only guessing and did not have a complete understanding of the details.

The reason is that all three companies, including Mercedes-Benz, have partnered with Want Want Group for investment, while Harbin Institute of Technology has no involvement in this business.

Even though Harbin Institute of Technology started a project to manufacture new energy vehicles several years ago, Mercedes-Benz and the other two car companies manufacture traditional fuel vehicles, which are completely different markets.

New energy vehicles are still very novel in this day and age.

Pedal-powered electric bicycles have become quite common across the country, although not in large numbers yet. However, the electric bicycles from Diaopai Company have sold very well in recent years.

Currently, there are many electric scooters on the roads in China, and gasoline-powered cars are also the mainstream, but new energy vehicles are still only in the laboratory.

Did Liu De not want to get involved in traditional gasoline-powered vehicles?
miss you!
But I can't do it!

We can only cooperate with others; we can't build it ourselves.

Traditional gasoline-powered vehicles have many core technologies, and the patents are mostly held by some foreign car brands.

It's not that simple; you can't just build it whenever you want.

Upon hearing this, Kang Yumin breathed a slight sigh of relief and then said:

"Secretary Liu, do you know when Professor Wang usually finishes his seclusion?"

"I don't know," Liu Deben shook his head.
“His seclusion is irregular, and we don’t know when he will end it. I don’t even know what he’s been researching lately, so I really don’t know how to answer your question, Secretary Kang.”

He wasn't lying; when Wang Duoyu was in seclusion, he usually conducted research in theoretical mathematics.

He genuinely didn't know the answer to this question.

For example, the strong solution to the Navier-Stokes equations—very few people know about this project to this day.

Whether it was the Hodge conjecture or the Riemann hypothesis, Wang Duoyu didn't let anyone know which one he was trying to verify.

Meanwhile, in the study of the villa on the island in the lake, Wang Duoyu was engrossed in his research and deduction.

He already had a general direction in mind, so he wrote it down and planned to make inferences in September.

Therefore, after Wang Jun'an started elementary school and arranged his work at Want Want Group, as well as his work on scientific research projects such as the Mach 5 fighter jet, domestically produced civil airliners, and Dawning supercomputer, he completely entered seclusion.

This time, the retreat is a true and complete retreat.

He was completely unaware that a French mathematics professor had previously published a paper criticizing him.

Liu Xiaoli heard about this, but Wang Duoyu had previously told her to try not to talk to him about outside matters, so as not to distract him.

So when he rests or eats, he just chats casually with the children to relax, but he has no intention of learning about the outside world.

It was precisely because of this that Wang Duoyu became even more focused on his work.

In late September, Fang Lihe personally visited the island in the middle of the lake.

As a result, he wanted to see Wang Duoyu, but he also had to wait.

When Wang Duoyu came out of the study villa at dinner time, he looked haggard, but his eyes were filled with joy.

But when he saw Fang Lihe, the smile on his face vanished instantly.

"Comrade Yuan Zuliang, didn't I say that I shouldn't let anyone in when I'm in seclusion?"

When Yuan Zuliang was called out, his serious face immediately turned into a bitter expression.

Sure enough, he's going to be sandwiched in the middle again.

Fang Lihe, showing some sense of responsibility, spoke gently at this moment:

"Duoyu, I made him do it. Don't blame him. Blame me instead."

"You really should be blamed!" Wang Duoyu didn't give the other party any face, but snorted coldly and went straight back to the study villa.

The shameless Fang Lihe followed him in.

"Many fish."

"Don't call me that, I can't accept that title. Just call me Xiao Wang, or something else."

In August, Fang Lihe was promoted.

This is why the other party so 'recklessly' broke his seclusion rules today; it would be strange if he didn't have a good expression on his face.

"Are you still angry? It's just a seclusion, and you've been here for almost a month. Shouldn't you go out and get some fresh air?"

Realizing he was in the wrong, Fang Lihe, completely lacking any leader's demeanor, said with a forced smile.

Wang Duoyu didn't push his luck; instead, he pointed to the office not far away and said:
"The reason I'm going into seclusion is because I've truly found inspiration. What if my inspiration vanishes when you come today, boss? Who should I ask for it back then? You?"

"Can you help me rediscover that inspiration? You can't, nobody can. Even I might not be able to find that inspiration again."

"If you can break the rules I set for seclusion today, can others break them tomorrow? Should I continue doing my job then?"

"What do you mean I'm going into seclusion for a month and should go out for some fresh air?"

"Hmph, if I need to get some fresh air, do I need anyone else to tell me? Don't I know that myself? I want to be lazy more than anyone else, but can I?"

His words came out like a machine gun, blasting out in rapid succession, leaving Fang Lihe speechless.

After a while, Wang Duoyu said:

"Speak, what mission is it this time? Why do you insist on breaking my seclusion rules?"

My rules are my rules, and no one can break them!
If it were anyone else, well, Wang Duoyu would have kicked them out long ago.

Fang Lihe said helplessly:
"I had someone send you a message last week, but all your communication devices were suspended. Even when I sent you an invitation, there was no response."

"Boss, I don't have time to listen to your complaints. I've already told all of you that I'm going into seclusion."

Wang Duoyu interrupted, "What exactly is the mission now?"

"The 40th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China is just around the corner. There are events in Beijing, and I hope you can participate."

After a pause, Fang Lihe continued:

"Furthermore, the Nantianmen project is still under discussion. Several leaders believe that the cost is too high and that the project should be delayed for five or ten years before it can be launched."

The Nantianmen project, costing 20 billion RMB annually, is indeed a bit too extravagant.

However, Wang Duoyu had already explained it before, but even after several months, some people still object.

That’s awesome.

"Then let's postpone it."

Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"Is there anything else?"

He had no intention of arguing, because he was only thinking about how to solve the Hodge conjecture, and he even wanted to solve the Riemann Hypothesis as well.

However, you have to eat one bite at a time; if you eat too much at once, it's really easy to choke.

Fang Lihe looked at the other person in disbelief, then took a deep breath and said:

"Are you really planning to postpone the South Heaven Gate project?"

"Boss, do you have anything else to say? I don't want to argue with you about this. I have more important things to do right now, the Nantianmen Project. I don't want to waste my breath on this anymore."

Upon hearing Wang Duoyu's words, Fang Lihe felt utterly helpless.

"So you really don't plan to come to the capital?"

"Well, I probably won't leave the island in the middle of the lake. At least in the short term, I'll need to stay here for at least another month before I can end my seclusion."

After a pause, Wang Duoyu continued:
"So from now on, I don't want you to bother me anymore. Even if it's the end of the world, please don't bother me, okay?"

Fang Lihe: "."

Even the South Heaven Gate plan can be abandoned; it seems Wang Duoyu has really encountered something big.

Is there anything we can do to help you?

"No, no one can help me. If I needed help, I would definitely go to Professor Qiu and the others, not you."

Wang Duoyu said without any politeness.

How could you possibly ask Fang Lihe about theoretical mathematical research problems?
Seeing that the other party had already said so much, Fang Lihe had no choice but to leave helplessly.

After Fang Lihe left, Wang Duoyu called Yuan Zuliang and the others over and gave them instructions:
"From now on, anyone who comes to me should be told to go back to where they came from. I will not see them for the next period of time. Please make it clear to them that I am temporarily unable to receive guests."

"Old Yuan, remember this: it's anyone, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zuliang nodded solemnly, indicating that he understood.

Wang Duoyu didn't need to explain much to them; he only needed to clearly state the orders, and Yuan Zuliang and the others would naturally carry them out.

The reason for this exception was that Fang Lihe personally spoke to Yuan Zuliang.

Otherwise, Yuan Zuliang wouldn't have made an exception.

After this incident, Wang Duoyu spent a day adjusting his state of mind.

Then he threw himself back into his demanding work.

In fact, he has now basically derived the Hodge conjecture, but he still needs a more detailed proof process and needs to review the whole process again and again.

Because this process is equally important to him.

The method of proving the Hodge conjecture brought him a lot of inspiration and ideas.

He had already made a record of it, and after eagerly proving the Hodge conjecture, he was about to turn around and prove the Riemann hypothesis.

Hodge's conjecture is to make spatial structures that are impossible to draw understandable to everyone.

Previously, Wang Duoyu had prepared many different shaped building blocks in order to build the Hodge Conjecture castle.

Whether it's four-dimensional, three-dimensional, two-dimensional, or one-dimensional, he has already pieced it together.

Now it's time for the final work: to put all these building blocks together and finally assemble a castle.

As time slowly passed, Wang Duoyu was nearing the completion of the entire proof process.

And the smile on his face grew wider.

September was almost over, but Wang Duoyu was unaware of it.

It wasn't until he sat down to eat with Liu Xiaoli and the children that he learned from the eldest son, Wang Junhong, that tomorrow was National Day.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

"Are you going to Beijing to participate in the selection of the top ten Young Pioneers?"

During the meal, Wang Duoyu overheard this news and looked at Wang Junhong in surprise, asking him about it.

The little guy proudly raised his chin high and said:

"Yes, Dad, all my teachers say I'm very good, and I can already fly a training aircraft. Even my instructor says I'm a genius, and in another six months, I'll even be able to fly the training aircraft independently."

Hearing him say that, Wang Duoyu was quite pleased.

For him, his child's growth is something to be very proud of.

"But, boss, I probably won't be able to go to Beijing with you for this selection event. How about having your mom go with you?"

This is the first time such an event has been held in China; it is the inaugural selection of the top ten Young Pioneers in the country.

Given Wang Junhong's performance at school and his status as a prodigy pilot, participating in such a selection event is indeed a game-changer.

And this child is almost nine years old, so he should be the youngest Young Pioneer, right?
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoli smiled and said:
“Great! I was just thinking of going out for a walk, so my younger brother, sister and I will all participate in this activity.”

Currently, only two children in the family, Wang Junkang and Wang Yifei, are not in school, along with the two sisters, Li Shumin and Lu Yuexin.

However, it's unclear whether Wang Junan, Li Rongrong, and Lu Yuening will have a proper holiday at that time.

If we have a holiday, that would be ideal; we could go and visit together.

If there's no holiday, then there's nothing we can do.

"Taking time off to go see this kind of event is definitely not an option," Wang Jun'an said, pouting.

The selection event is on October 11th, which is a Wednesday, so we definitely need to go to the capital on the 9th to prepare.

Since that's the case, Wang Junan definitely can't join in the fun.

Whether he was willing or not was unimportant, because Wang Junhong didn't really care.

"Second brother, you can also participate in the selection, but you have to work hard, otherwise you might not even be selected as one of the top ten Young Pioneers in Bingcheng City."

Liu Xiaoli said with a smile.

This reverse psychology tactic works!
Because the second child is susceptible to this kind of thing.

After dinner, Wang Duoyu wanted to go back to the study villa to continue working, but Wang Yifei wanted him to hug her.

"Daddy has to work, how about tomorrow?"

"Oh no, Daddy, you haven't hugged me in so long."

Seeing the little guy pouting and looking aggrieved, Wang Duoyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

I just held this child this morning.
Never mind, I'll carry her to the study.

And you know what? After the little one came to the study, she entertained herself without crying or bothering her father. She's really sensible and well-behaved.

However, not long after, Wang Yifei herself became so sleepy that she fell asleep next to him.

Tomorrow is National Day, and the weather in Harbin is still a bit cool.

The indoor environment was alright, and the little one was dressed too.

After seeing that she had fallen asleep, Wang Duoyu got up and covered her with a blanket.

Half an hour later, Wang Duoyu finished his work and took the child back to the bedroom of the villa next door.

The next day, National Day arrived as scheduled, but Wang Duoyu still showed no intention of going out.

Although this year marks the 40th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, no military parade was held in Beijing. However, the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square was exceptionally grand and attracted many onlookers.

After National Day, Kong Xiangyan, Chu Guibai, Li Yili and others went to see their teacher.

"Teacher, now the higher-ups say the Nantianmen project will be delayed, at least ten years. And according to Leader Fang, he personally went to Harbin Institute of Technology and spoke with Professor Wang, saying that Professor Wang also supports delaying the project."

"I don't believe Professor Wang would agree to delay the plan. Something must have gone wrong. Professor, why don't we go to Harbin Institute of Technology and ask Professor Wang what he really thinks?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Xuesen shook his head and said:

"Going to Professor Wang now is definitely not an option."

He learned from Harbin Institute of Technology that when Fang Lihe went to see Wang Duoyu that day, the latter did not give Fang Lihe any face at all.

It was because Wang Duoyu was very angry, probably because it had disrupted some of his inspiration.

Anyone who works in scientific research knows that inspiration is something that, while certainly present, isn't entirely absent.

Take Qian Xuesen himself as an example. He also liked to conduct research alone behind closed doors, but unlike Wang Duoyu, he could not go into seclusion for half a month, a month, or even two or three months without any contact with the outside world.

Researchers like Yu Min wouldn't do the same.

If they were to go into seclusion, it would definitely be a group of people working together in an office.

However, Wang Duoyu is currently conducting theoretical mathematics research, so he only needs to do it by himself, which seems quite normal.

As for exchanges, didn't we just have a conference in July? At that time, many top mathematicians from universities, research institutions and other organizations around the world came.

"Let's wait a bit longer. Ask Professor Wang again after he comes out of seclusion."

The Nantianmen Project wasn't bad, it was just too expensive, and even Qian Xuesen found it very difficult.

However, Wang Duoyu was not worried about funding or personnel.

The reason why Fang Lihe relayed the message and Wang Duoyu agreed to delay must be due to some misunderstanding.

Upon hearing this, Kong Xiangyan and the others, though unwilling, had no choice but to agree.

What else can we do if they don't agree?
The plan is now on hold. Wang Duoyu is in seclusion, and experts like Kong Xiangyan simply don't have the influence to push the plan forward.

Time flew by, and it was October 9th. Liu Xiaoli took Wang Junhong, Wang Yifei, Li Shumin, and other children to Beijing to participate in the selection of the top ten outstanding Young Pioneers in the country.

Wang Duoyu has already completed the initial proof of the Hodge conjecture. Next, he needs to derive it twice more. If there are no problems, then he can start working on his paper.

As one of the seven great mathematical problems of the millennium in the original timeline, the Hodge conjecture is one of the more peculiar ones.

The problem of P and NP is the holy grail of computer science, and solving it is extremely difficult.

The existence and smoothness of the Navier-Stokes equations, that is, their strong solutions, are the foundation of fluid mechanics.

The weak solution to this equation was proven in the 1930s.

Its strong solution is the solution that satisfies the equation at any point in the flow field, which means that the flow state at any time point can be accurately predicted from the initial state.

Yang-Mills theory is the foundation of particle physics.

The three questions above are the foundation of the entire research field, while the next three questions are related to mathematical concepts.

Solving the Riemann Hypothesis can pave the way for a better understanding of prime numbers.

The Birch and Swinnetton-Dyer conjecture concerns determining whether there is a simple way to distinguish between polynomial equations with finite and infinite solutions.

The Poincaré conjecture concerns how 3D surfaces work, and it has already been proven.

The Hodge conjecture is unusual because it is integrated with the Poincaré conjecture on quantum entanglement in general relativity.

As we all know, our universe is governed by two theories.

One theory is that when a planet revolves around the sun, it's like a basketball on a bed sheet; as the ball moves, the sheet deforms. This is the theory behind how massive objects warp spacetime.

Another is quantum theory, which explains the incredible things in the microscopic world, such as why light is both a particle and a wave.

Quantum entanglement is a link between two particles, where the state of one particle affects the state of the other.

If the first theory were true, and gravity governs everything, these examples should behave differently, and there would be no quantum entanglement.

A Canadian scientist integrated these two theories, suggesting that spacetime is simply the geometry of the entangled states of matter in a quantum system, called a tensor network. The network established by the universe is like branches growing in different directions. The universe neither expands nor contracts, and the connection between two particles does not involve gravity, but is like a wormhole.

A spatial model of geometric gravity can explain quantum entanglement.

But in fact, Wang Duoyu was very clear that the universe contains dark matter and dark energy.

The expansion of the universe is due to the effect of dark energy, which is the opposite of gravity and drives the universe to expand continuously.

Therefore, the above theories compiled by Canadian scientists are not rigorous.

Of course, in this day and age, no one in the scientific community is aware that dark energy and dark matter really exist in the universe, nor have any scientists found any phenomena related to the existence of dark energy or dark matter or experimentally proven their existence.

Hodge wondered why it was so bizarre.
One question is: if the universe is like a tree branch, then any two regions or points on this tree, if they are not connected, will have their connection blocked or easily disrupted. This can be verified through experiments.

If the pipes are connected in pairs, then of course they cannot be blocked.

However, if any two particles are entangled, then they will effectively exist within a wormhole.

So why can quantum entanglement exist in a geometric network where two elements are connected?
Since any two regions are connected, the example of a particle in one region and another region is also a case where the regions are connected to each other.

It's just that one particle is a mirror image of another particle.

It is very difficult to explain, but the Hodge conjecture is indeed integrated with general relativity, quantum entanglement, and the Poincaré conjecture.

Wang Duoyu had already proven the Poincaré conjecture years ago and was already very familiar with this mathematical theory.

The theoretical foundations of quantum entanglement and general relativity are relatively easy for Wang Duoyu to understand.

Moreover, in previous years, he had had in-depth discussions with physics giants such as Qian Xuesen, Yang Zhenning, and Li Zhengdao, and even explored the issue of dark energy.

Based on these theoretical studies and his understanding of mathematics, Wang Duoyu was able to come up with more methods when deriving and proving the Hodge conjecture.

Wang Duoyu also studied the joint representation m-theory, a major problem in number theory: using a manifold to combine a series of major problems in number theory with physics.

For example, when Wang Duoyu was deriving and proving the Riemann Hypothesis, he used related theories and even connected them with Fermat's Last Theorem. The significance of this is that a structural space suitable for the Riemann Hypothesis can be constructed by using geometric topological methods.

On October 11th, Wang Junhong successfully passed the selection and became one of the first ten outstanding Young Pioneers in the country.

They returned to Harbin that very evening. Wang Yifei, with her short legs, was even more excited than her older brother. She took her brother's certificate and presented it to her father like a precious treasure.

"Great job, boss! You did a fantastic job. You deserve a good reward." Wang Duoyu gave the little guy a thumbs up.

As a result, Wang Yifei jumped around excitedly, indicating that she also wanted a reward.

Haha!

Everyone is happy.

However, some people are unhappy.

Wang Jun'an was already feeling down because he couldn't go to the capital, and now that his whole family was doting on his older brother, he felt even more resentful.

"I should finish work next month, and then I'll go to Guangzhou to relax. Anyone want to join me?"

Liu Xiaoli and the others were very surprised to hear Wang Duoyu say that.

Wang Jun'an, who was still feeling very down, jumped up with joy when he met his father's gaze.

"Dad, I want to go, I want to go."

He was certainly happy to go south to Guangzhou.

Even if we go next month, wouldn't that be just right?

After all, it's October now, and heating has already been turned on in Northeast China. The temperature outside is already below zero, and there have been several snowfalls before National Day.

So next month I'm heading south to Guangzhou to spend the winter, which will definitely be great.

Seeing that Liu Xiaoli and the children were very happy, Wang Duoyu also smiled happily.

In mid-October, in his study in the villa, looking at the manuscript in front of him, his smile bloomed like a flower:

"Perfect, absolutely perfect!"

Hodge's conjecture has been thoroughly proven, and he can now prepare his paper.

Just as he was busy preparing his thesis, a magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck San Francisco, USA.

Zheng Baoyin, Wei Ruolai, and Qu Haiping were all in San Francisco and had a very deep impression of it.

"We were incredibly lucky. Luckily, we listened to Professor Wang and didn't take those wooden houses. Otherwise, we wouldn't just be homeless, we might be dead."

At the entrance of a villa in a wealthy neighborhood in San Francisco, Wei Ruolai spoke with deep emotion.

On the side, Qu Haiping could only manage a wry smile:
"I don't know if I've just been having a lot of bad luck lately, but why do I keep running into these unlucky things?"

Just a few months ago, he had survived a plane crash. Although he escaped death, it left him with a lasting trauma.

He vowed to buy a private jet back then, but he still hasn't made up his mind.

It's not that Gulfstream, Boeing, or Airbus aircraft are inadequate, but rather that their safety considerations are much more stringent.

So he hesitated for a long time.

"It's not because you're unlucky, it's just a coincidence."

Zheng Baoyin comforted him, saying:

"However, my uncle's advice was very insightful. Look at the houses down the mountain? A large number of them have collapsed."

Many houses in the United States are made of wood.

why?

Because it's cheap and very easy to build.

Both housing construction companies and the general public prefer wooden houses.

Wooden houses are very prone to collapse during earthquakes.

The houses built by Zheng Baoyin and his family cost a lot of money just for the steel bars; in fact, they used even less cement and sand.

why?
Only in this way can the house itself be more solid, and even in the event of an earthquake of magnitude 8, such a house will be very sturdy.

In the original timeline, Principal Ye Zhiping, after becoming the principal of Sangzao Middle School, carried out systematic renovations of the teaching building on several occasions.

Furthermore, since 2005, emergency evacuation drills have been organized every semester.

When the earthquake struck, the school, located in An County, MY City, did not collapse much, and there were no casualties among the teachers and students.

Most importantly, these teaching buildings, unlike Zheng Baoyin's, do not have walls or other structures reinforced with steel bars.

In fact, Wang Duoyu had seen news reports about this housing safety issue in his previous life.

For example, some units like police stations.

The walls are basically half steel bars and half cement and sand, so you could say they are reinforced concrete walls, which are very strong and reliable.

That's why he suggested that Zheng Baoyin and his team use as much steel reinforcement as possible when building the house.

As for why he built a wooden house in his hometown of Dahonggou Village, well, it was to experience the original ecology.

Log cabins have their advantages, and houses built with reinforced concrete also have their advantages.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

In addition, Dahonggou Village is not located on a continental seismic belt, so there is not much need to consider the impact of earthquakes.

A few days later, Zheng Baoyin and his colleagues learned about it from the news.

The San Francisco earthquake resulted in over 200 casualties and caused economic losses of up to one billion US dollars.

Many people across the United States, and even around the world, are closely watching this matter.

Many capitalists stepped forward, established charitable organizations, and generously announced their donations.

When Zheng Baoyin and his colleagues saw the news, they thought it was a good thing, but after inquiring carefully, they found out that it was just a publicity stunt.

The so-called charitable foundation is not the kind of pure charitable foundation that Zheng Baoyin and his colleagues understand.

This is a financial institution that simply uses charity as a guise, and its operating model combines investment appreciation with strategic funding.

Simply put, it's a sustainable cycle of donation, investment, and further donation.

"You guys are truly amazing, as expected of someone in finance!"

After learning the details from Li Efra and the others, Wang Jianchao gave a thumbs up, expressing his admiration.

A major earthquake is a natural disaster, but capital has become even more rampant because of it.

It truly deserves to be called a free country.

"Jianchao, you just came back from China last week. Has the professor finished his seclusion yet?"

Wei Ruolai suddenly asked at this moment, and Wang Jianchao replied:
"No, I haven't seen him either. Anyway, my aunt and nephew said that my ninth uncle is very busy, eats very quickly, and doesn't see anyone else."

"Your uncle values ​​you so much, you should go and meet him."

"Don't give me that. I don't want to get scolded by Uncle Jiu. Section Chief Yuan already said that Uncle Jiu won't see anyone."

They chatted and laughed as they ended the meeting.

Another half month passed, and the 437-page paper was finally completed.

The drafts, which totaled three large boxes, were not thrown away but were organized and stored away.

All of them are stored in alloy boxes, so there will be no problem even in the event of a fire.

These alloy boxes require temperatures exceeding 2,000 degrees Celsius to melt, and they are made of highly insulated alloys with an additional layer of protection inside.

To be honest, these mathematical drafts had no value to Wang Duoyu other than a little sentimental significance.

However, this thing is still very important to the mathematics community.

So he kept all those math papers.

There was absolutely no intention to discard it.

It's already early November, and he's almost finished his seclusion.

"I was originally planning to continue reasoning and solve the Riemann Hypothesis, but now it seems I was overthinking it!"

Wang Duoyu shook his head, looking regretfully at another alloy box next to him. Inside were a large amount of calculation processes and methods for the Riemann Hypothesis, as well as some of his previous ideas.

However, if he were to end his seclusion, he would certainly need to give an explanation to the outside world.

He currently has two unpublished research results: a new large value estimate of Dirichlet polynomials and a new type of automorphic infinite product.

And his paper on the Hodge conjecture, which he just proved.

"In that case, after this period of seclusion, I'll first publish my paper on the new large-value estimate of the Dirichlet polynomial."

As for the new type of automorphic infinite product, we'll talk about that later.

There are still more than half a year until the International Congress of Mathematicians next August, so there's no rush.

Soon, as soon as he emerged from seclusion, the news spread. (End of Chapter)
