Because the old gentleman later added calmly.
It's not because he's not interested at all, it's just because he came in a bit of a hurry this time. Not to mention bringing relatives here like the other two winners, he didn't even prepare a dance partner.
This time, Lu Zhou added a line of text to his blog post, revealing the mystery of last night's scarf.
As for why they suddenly started talking about math problems, it was mainly because Lu Zhou deliberately threw out a mathematical proposition in order to cover up his embarrassment in the dance steps, trying to divert her attention.
After dragging his tired body back to the hotel, Lu Zhou threw his formal clothes on the chair, fell on the bed, and let out a sigh of relief.
"The short term can be one or two years, and the long term can be three to five years." Lu Zhou said with a smile, "I will definitely come back."
Not only does the Craford Award come with honors, but it also comes with a $500,000 prize...
"Thank you for the invitation, but I can't dance."
After saying that, the old man put his hands behind his back and left with a smile.
Lu Zhou: "..."
After finishing speaking, the old gentleman carefully held the knife and fork to decompose the steak, indifferent to everything next to him.
"Then I, an old man, won't disturb you young people. It's time for me to say hello to some old friends."
As for the scholar sitting on the other side of him, he had an expression as if he was sitting on pins and needles.
"Don't be modest. Your achievements are not just talked about. You are still young now, and your future will only be broader." Wang Xiping shook his head, paused for a moment, and continued with a smile, "So. , how long do you plan to stay in Princeton? Will you come back?"
The dance was already halfway through, but Lu Zhou had no intention of participating.
Perhaps, I should really take the time to learn these things.
"Yanda has many young talents, such as seniors such as Zhang Wei, Yun Zhiwei, and Xu Chenyang. When I was at Princeton, I could often hear people talking about their research." Lu Zhou said with a smile.
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Academician Chen has already asked me this question, but I think the environment at Jinling University is more suitable for me."
"Okay, it seems you have your own plans," Academician Wang Xiping sighed and said in a joking tone, "But we at Yanda University don't have the fate to invite you to be a professor. You can come to us to give lectures occasionally. Or a report meeting, that’s no problem, right?”
In terms of showing off, Lu Zhou felt that he was still a little inferior.
After shaking hands with the legendary goddess of mathematics, Lu Zhou politely expressed regret. However, when he was about to let go, he found that the other party had no intention of letting go.
It can be seen that the big man next to him has brought a lot of psychological pressure to him.
Lu Zhou smiled and nodded: "It's an honor."
Dancing is just a normal way of communication and has no special meaning. It is said that a certain Nobel Prize winner was so excited when dancing that his shoes flew out, but everyone just smiled knowingly.
It seems that the joy of winning the award has not yet been shared with his fans.
Wang Xiping smiled and said, "It's good to be back. Are you interested in becoming a professor at Yanda?"
Lu Zhou didn't expect her to say that and was stunned for a moment.
But, this is obviously impossible.
It was still facing the night view outside the window, but there was an extra yellow medal in the lens.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou smiled shyly, sat up from the bed with a groan, and strolled to the window.
"Of course, you just have hope."
But fortunately, he wasn't the only one who couldn't dance. It didn't seem awkward to stand on the side with a bottle of champagne and chat with his colleagues.
"But you have to learn, right?" Maria smiled and said, "I can teach you. I believe this is not a difficult thing for a 21-year-old genius who won the Crafford Prize."
…
It seemed that even now, he was thinking about some mathematical problem.
After all, Lu Zhou felt that one day he would come here again.
For scholars, there are still reports to prepare for tomorrow. And for couples who meet each other on the dance floor, they don’t want to waste time on the dance floor.
After silently reciting a few words of normalcy, Lu Zhou was about to put the medal aside when he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have almost forgotten something important.
However, the joy in it is also quite wonderful.
After the dance, the guests dispersed.
Hearing this name, a hint of surprise appeared on Lu Zhou's face.
Maria Viazovska, winner of the Salem Award in February this year, is also a popular candidate for the 2018 Philippine Award, just like Molina’s mentor.
"Maria Vyazovska," Maria smiled and stretched out her right hand, "If you think my last name is too difficult to pronounce, you can just call me by my first name."
As a result, the old gentleman obviously misunderstood and thought that Lu Zhou wanted to get rid of him, so he laughed and said.
Lu Zhou, who was dumbfounded, couldn't help but cast a look of help at Academician Wang next to him.
The premise is that no one comes to invite him to dance...
Even if I encountered a problem that I couldn't figure out when I was in retreat to challenge Goldbach's conjecture and walked around the house all day, I would never be as exhausted physically and mentally as I am today.
Are all Slavs so enthusiastic
"Hello, Mr. Lu Zhou, can I take a moment of your time?"
[The night view is unforgettable, I hope to see it again soon.
After the banquet in the Blue Hall, there was a dance in the Gold Hall.
Today is definitely the most tiring day for him this year.
As for Lu Zhou, he was standing on the edge of the dance floor, holding a bottle of champagne in his hand, chatting and laughing with Academician Wang Xiping, who had also come from afar.
The flickering candlelight falls from the copper candlesticks on both sides of the hall, shining on the smooth and clear floor tiles. The goddess of Lake Malaren sits on the mural in the center, watching the dancing people on the dance floor with her wise eyes. crowd.
—2016·5·26, in Stockholm.]
Standing next to Lu Zhou, Academician Wang Xiping sighed softly: "I didn't expect that in just one year, you have grown so fast. You even won the Craford Award. It really puts us Yan University students to shame."
Lu Zhou glanced at her unexpectedly: "Of course... Who are you?"
And, in another capacity.
After all, he is a complete novice in dancing, and his only practical basis is the Nth set of radio gymnastics and eye exercises.
While Lu Zhou and Academician Wang Xiping were chatting about the dinner at the banquet, a lady wearing an evening gown came over and smiled at him.
In fact, Maria Vyazovska did not do anything to him. The two just danced together and even exchanged mathematical questions while dancing.
We were too far away to say hello before during the banquet, but now we have a chance to see him.
This issue is closely related to crystal physics and string theory in theoretical physics. It can be said to be a proposition that is not well-known but has wide applications.
For the first time, Faltins took the initiative to talk to him, seemingly just to say these two words.
But I really can’t dance...
And also this year, she solved a famous mathematical problem with a history of nearly two hundred years, namely the filling problem of high-dimensional spheres in 8 and 24 dimensions.
How embarrassing...
