My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 155 Ivory Tower and Truth: Constructing the Yellow Heaven Theory

Room 306, Girls' Dormitory Building No. 8, Beijing Foreign Studies University.

"Yang Ning, where's Xiao Zong? Didn't she come back with you?"

A tall, strong woman was eating spicy hot pot when she caught a glimpse of a round-faced woman entering the room and casually asked her a question.

Yang Ning closed the dormitory door, put her backpack on the table, and sank into a chair, comfortably spreading her arms. "It's so comfortable in the dormitory... Xiao Zong, she's still in the library, she'll probably be back a little later."

The tall, strong girl asked, "Have you had dinner? What did you eat? Was it good?"

"I ate it, and it's still my favorite satay beef noodles!"

"Can't you try something different? Is that stuff really that good?"

"Oh, you don't understand, it smells so good! One bite and the aroma makes you feel like you're floating on air."

The tall, strong woman was speechless. "Why not try stone pot chicken or bone broth wontons? You'll see when you try something different."

"Let me say it again!"

Yang Ning leaned back comfortably in her chair, took out her phone, and said, "Any good dramas to watch lately? I'm exhausted after studying all afternoon."

The tall, strong woman shook her head. "I watch old dramas now. The Chinese entertainment industry is finished. The dramas they produce now are meaningless."

Yang Ning said sullenly, "Then I'll just watch some videos instead, sigh~"

I opened LeDou and scrolled through the videos one by one, and soon I was laughing out loud.

until.

"Huh? This guy is so handsome! Wait, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?!"

She sat bolt upright and read out the text from the video, word by word, "Changda University student Huang Tian published a paper in one of the four top mathematics journals..."

哐～
"Ouch, that hurts." Yang Ning hissed and rubbed the leg that had hit the table.

The tall, strong girl turned around in surprise. "What's wrong with you? Why are you so startled?"

Yang Ning endured the pain, turned her phone screen around, and asked with a look of surprise and uncertainty, "Look at this person, isn't he Xiao Zong's boyfriend?"

The tall, strong girl leaned closer, looking at his face with a puzzled expression. "Huang Tian? Thesis? That name sounds similar."

"The important thing is face! Face! And Xiao Zong used to be from Changda!" Yang Ning said excitedly.

The tall, strong girl asked uncertainly, "Could it really be him?"

She took out her phone, opened Zong Wenjun's Moments, and saw a photo of Zong Wenjun and Huang Tian at the top of the list.

He glanced down at the people in the group photo, then at the image on Yang Ning's phone in the video.

"Wow, it looks so much like it!" she exclaimed.

Yang Ning nodded wildly, "I think so too. Same name, same school, similar appearance, it's definitely the same person!"

She slapped her forehead and said, "Let me search for his information again!"

Pick up your phone and search for "Huang Tian," and immediately, a series of videos pop up.

Click on any one of them and take a look at the comments section.

"Chang Da Niubi!"

"Who made my husband so funny? I didn't dare touch him at all!"

"Why haven't I ever seen this type of younger brother in the palace?"

"What a great young person! [Flowers] [Flowers]"

"Even though I don't understand it, the explosions and stuff just got me really into it [facepalm]"

"I found the paper and took a look. It seems to be somewhat similar to the RT instability in implosion dynamics? It's a key issue in early nuclear energy research and in the current direction of controlled nuclear fusion..."

"What the hell are you talking about?! [gritting teeth]"

"With geniuses like Huang Tian around, I can comfortably be a good-for-nothing..."

"..."

Yang Ning's eyes lit up as she scrolled through videos. The tall, strong girl stopped watching the show and opened Weibo to search for "Huang Tian".

After a while, click, the dormitory door opened.

Zong Wenjun, carrying a light blue backpack, walked in and was startled as soon as she entered.

Because three "insidious and ferocious" faces came together.

"Xiao Zong, why didn't you tell us about such a great thing?"

Don't you love us anymore?

"Hey hey hey~"

With her backpack propped against the door, Zong Wenjun looked bewildered. "What are you talking about?"

The three roommates were taken aback. Yang Ning said, "So you haven't seen the video yet?"

"What video?" Zong Wenjun put her bag on the table and took out her phone in confusion.

"Here, search for the two characters 'Huang Tian'."

"what?"

Zong Wenjun was taken aback. He opened Baidu and searched for Huang Tian. Immediately, pictures of Huang Tian popped up. In just one or two days, his Baidu entry had been edited.

Below the entry is an article from Renren.com commenting on Huang Tian:
"...Recently, Huang Tian's name has caused quite a stir in the Chinese mathematics community. This young man, only 24 years old, published a groundbreaking paper as the first author in New Advances in Mathematics, one of the four top internationally recognized mathematics journals..."

In the common perception, those who can publish papers in such top academic journals are mostly experts and scholars from well-known universities at home and abroad, who have often undergone long-term and systematic academic training.

Huang Tian's experience broke this conventional path. After graduating with his bachelor's degree, he did not choose to pursue further studies for various reasons, but instead entered the workforce.

According to the editor, over the past year, while burying himself in his busy work, he also devoted all his free time to research in the field of partial differential equations...

Huang Tian's success is not a chance flash of inspiration, but rather the result of persistent research and a pure love for mathematics.

He proved to us that the pursuit of truth is not necessarily confined to the ivory tower…

After reading the entire article and the several photos attached to it, Zong Wenjun was completely bewildered.

"Xiao Zong, is it him?" The three blinked their bright eyes.

Zong Wenjun pursed her lips. "It should be."

It wasn't just "should be," it was "definitely." She recognized him at a glance in the photo. After all, they had known each other for so many years, how could she not tell them apart? But the news was just too shocking, leaving her momentarily stunned.

Yang Ning grabbed her arm and said, "Why don't you send a message and ask?"

Zong Wenjun slowly sat down in the chair, thought for a moment, nodded, opened Fetion, and sent a message to Huang Tian.

Are you busy right now?

[Rabbit patting head.jpg] The three onlookers burst into laughter, and the tall, strong girl looked up and howled, "Jie Jie, just ask me what's wrong! Why are you asking if I'm busy?"

No sooner had I finished speaking than I received a reply.

[Not busy, just finished reviewing some materials, now enjoying the night view from the balcony]

"They replied! Ask them quickly!" Yang Ning exclaimed excitedly.

Zong Wenjun then sent over the link to the Renrenbao article she had just seen.

Is that you in the picture?

huh~
It's me.

"Wow!! It really is him!" The three people in the dormitory immediately erupted in excitement. The tall and strong girl grabbed Zong Wenjun's arm and shook it incessantly, so excited that she could hardly speak.

Zong Wenjun, however, gradually came to her senses from her daze. 【Wow, that's amazing!】

We've made some small progress, it's alright.

[A huge achievement! This is published in one of the top four journals, even harder than publishing in CNS!]

【Then I'll accept your admiration, haha】

Will you pursue further studies, staying at Changda University or attending one of the universities in Beijing?

There's no rush. I'm currently researching a new project, and I'll have results soon. We'll consider it then.

【Uh-huh】

After chatting for a while, Zong Wenjun put down her phone, and her three roommates were extremely excited.

Yang Ning's eyes shone with anticipation as she said, "One of the top four journals! With academic achievements like that, becoming a professor wouldn't be a problem, right? I just checked, and I found that a few years ago, one of the top four journals was enough to be nominated for the Outstanding Young Scientist Award! Such a bright future!"

"I reckon many universities in China have already extended olive branches to him, offering him direct access to a PhD program. After graduation, he could immediately become an associate professor or professor, earning hundreds of thousands or even millions a year. He'd be set for life," the girl with black-rimmed glasses remarked.

The tall, strong girl glanced at Zong Wenjun with envy, then stretched out her arm, flexing her muscular biceps. "Sigh, why can't I find a boyfriend like that? Is it just because I'm 1.82 meters tall?"

Yang Ning tiptoed and patted her arm sympathetically, "You will find your own love."

"Yang Ning, there's something wrong with your eyes..."

"Have it?"

"Punch me!"

A burst of laughter filled the dormitory as Zong Wenjun watched them playfully bickering.

Meanwhile, at the hotel on the Qianhu campus of Changda University, Huang Tian's phone vibrated slightly.

"The research reward has arrived..."

He picked it up and saw that it was a message from the bank's app. The 300,000 yuan research bonus after tax from Changda had arrived in his account, not a penny less. Now his total savings amounted to a little over 340,000 yuan.

Well, after working for more than a year, he saved about 40,000 yuan, and that's only because he's quite frugal.

After thinking for a moment, he transferred 50,000 yuan to Huang Ma and attached a voice message.

"Mom, I've recently made some progress in my research, and the school awarded me some money. I'll transfer some to you so you can use it first."

Huang's parents are both from the countryside. The former completed junior high school, while the latter only finished fourth grade. They don't know many characters, so Huang Tian communicates with her by voice or by phone.

Shortly after the message was sent, a phone rang.

Huang Tian looked and, sure enough, it was Huang Ma calling.

"Xiao Tian, ​​why did you suddenly send so much money..."

His voice was unusually anxious as soon as he spoke, as if he was worried that something had happened to him.

"Mom, didn't I tell you it was a prize from the school? I'm just giving you some to use." He explained the whole story in detail, and only then did Huang's mother begin to believe him.

"Go check out LeDou, you should be able to find videos related to me, and you'll understand after watching them."

"well."

After hanging up the phone, Huang's mother searched for LeDou on her phone. She only ever watched videos on Fetion and wasn't used to using other video apps.

Find LeDou, open it, and keep swiping through five or six videos before finally Huang Tian's image appears.

"...Huang Tian is undoubtedly an outstanding young mathematician, possessing a mathematical intuition far exceeding that of ordinary people and an extremely strong mathematical talent..."

As she listened to the explanation in the video, the surprise on her face grew stronger. She then flipped through several more videos, and Huang Tian's image appeared again.

"...Every era produces geniuses, and Huang Tian is undoubtedly one of the stars of this era. Even though he did not continue his studies at school for various reasons, he still managed to take a solid step on his academic path through his own efforts and talent..."

The more she looked, the more mixed her feelings became. At first, she was surprised, then she was delighted and relieved, and finally she couldn't help but tear up.

After a long while, she calmed herself down and then called Huang Tian.

"Hello, Mom?"

"I just saw the post about you on my phone. You've really made something of yourself."

Huang Ma said slowly, "I won't accept that money. You can keep it and use it to buy whatever you want. You're working away from home, so you need to take good care of yourself. Your father and I don't need much money."

"It's alright, it's not much money, just accept it. There's still a month or so until the New Year, so keep it and buy some new things for your home."

Also, tell Dad to stop doing loading and unloading work; it's too heavy and tiring. I can easily support the family with the money I earn here. If he's really bored, he can do some light work..."

After much persuasion, Huang's mother finally agreed to accept the money. However, she emphasized that the money was to be kept by her and used to buy Huang Tian a car and a house in the future. As for changing jobs, she only said that she would discuss and consider it with Huang's father.

Huang Tian did not insist on this, as both the influence of money and the change of mindset require time.

After hanging up the phone, Huang Tian walked back into the house from the balcony, sat on the beige sofa, turned on his computer, and multitasked with both cultivation and literature review.

The Navier-Stokes equations problem wasn't difficult for him; he already had a general framework and approach in mind. His reason for not rushing was that he planned to simultaneously construct a new mathematical tool.

In modern mathematics, solving a problem is important, but the methods and tools used to solve it are often even more important.

For example, Galois theory was initially proposed only to study the radical solutions of higher-order equations.

However, the emergence of this theoretical tool greatly inspired the development of modern mathematical branches such as group theory and field theory, becoming the beginning of abstract algebra, and also influencing multiple fields such as topology, number theory, and physics.

This is precisely the significance of the Clay Institute's establishment of the seven Millennium Problems in mathematics. Solving the problems is important, but creating new, effective, and generalizable mathematical tools is even more valuable.

"Geometric reconstruction, fiber bundles, topological constraints, dynamical systems, scaling analysis... I'll spend some more time reviewing the most cutting-edge materials in each branch, and then build a relatively complete tool..."

Once the tools are built, the Navier-Stokes equations problem is naturally solved.

And ever since then, almost all research in fluid-related fields, whether it's the design of airplanes and cars, weather forecasting, the flow of blood in blood vessels, or ocean circulation and the evolution of galaxies, has been inseparable from this tool!

"It might take ten days, or at most a month, to build it. What will the outside world call it then? The Yellow Heaven Theory?"

He smiled, then quickly swiped the mouse, skimming the paper line by line; countless words and symbols flooded his eyes...
