Thinking of this, Lu Zhou couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The atmosphere in the office fell into a mysterious silence.
Chen Yang nodded.
Unfortunately, during this day, he only touched the edge of the door. It could even be said that he was still wandering around the entrance of the maze.
"it's me!"
But looking at the chalk fingerprints on the side of the cup, Lu Zhou's eyebrows suddenly couldn't help but twitch.
"The question you asked me the day before yesterday was interesting."
"oh."
He had been thinking about the place that he couldn't figure out all day long, and even the place that he hadn't thought of yet was solved by him in such an understatement!
"It took a little time, but it didn't take long. For me, it was just a matter of minutes. I definitely didn't think about it all night..."
Chen Yang nodded numbly.
Pinching his eyebrows, Lu Zhou moved his right hand holding the stack of A4 papers, and then slapped them all on the table, "Speaking of which, do you have coffee here? Get me a cup if it's not troublesome."
"What's wrong?"
To be honest, Lu Zhou was a little curious about how he came here in the past twenty or thirty years.
Confused by Lu Zhou's words, Chen Yang looked back at Lu Zhou blankly and asked, "Does this... have anything to do with it?"
He is a master.
"... Of course," Lu Zhou shrugged his shoulders after coming back to his senses. In the end, he overcame his mysophobia and picked up the cup of coffee with chalk fingerprints on it and took a sip. "You are free to do whatever you want. I came here to talk to you." Communicate about this stuff.”
"good."
After coughing slightly, Lu Zhou said, "...it depends on what happened."
Not noticing the speechless expression on Lu Zhou's face, Chen Yang said impatiently, "Can you read the paper for me?"
As soon as he heard the old guy's embarrassed and somewhat flattering tone, his intuition that there was probably something very troublesome waiting for him immediately came to Lu Zhou's mind.
Why are you going to Shanghai out of nowhere
Director Li chuckled and said, "Isn't it the end of the month? The IMCRC headquarters is about to be unveiled. You are also the first chairman of the board, why don't you go and take a few steps?"
Lu Zhou was stunned for a moment: "Why are you going to Shanghai?"
Lu Zhou: "...???"
I don't know if it's because he lacks vocabulary or doesn't know how to speak, but this guy seems to have only so many words of praise.
If your emotional intelligence is so low, won't you get beaten
"Thanks!"
"I submitted my paper to the "Annals of Mathematics". Do you have any objections?"
The calculations on the blackboard were obviously his attempt to prove the proposition he proposed the day before yesterday.
In an office of the Institute of Mathematics.
Putting down the coffee cup, Lu Zhou said in a relaxed tone.
While Professor Chen was looking at his paper, Lu Zhou also took the time to look at the rows of blackboards standing on the wall of the office.
It didn't take Lu Zhou a lot of effort to answer Chen Yang's confusion.
After resisting the smell of chalk that filled the room, Lu Zhou walked to open the window as soon as he entered the door. He first put his head out the window to take a breath, and then looked back at Professor Chen Yang, who was standing next to the blackboard with a confused look on his face.
Just when Lu Zhou was wondering about this problem, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.
Seeing how he didn't care, Lu Zhou felt a little embarrassed and coughed lightly.
Hearing his words, Lu Zhou chuckled and asked, "Do you understand?"
"By the way, the issues discussed in this paper are a bit interesting. After I sorted it out, I easily integrated it into the theory of hyperelliptic curve analysis... As you said, this can make this mathematical tool compatible More questions.”
If he had known that this question was so difficult for him, he would not have rushed out the paper all night long, which made him very sleepy now.
"You...have already figured it out?"
After saying thank you, Chen Yang focused all his attention on the paper and left Lu Zhou aside.
When he thought of this, Chen Yang even had a rare look of admiration in his eyes.
After answering all Chen Yang's questions, Lu Zhou was basically certain that there were probably no technical omissions in his paper.
At this moment, Chen Yang, who was immersed in reading the paper, suddenly raised his head with shining eyes and suddenly said two words.
How did you survive in academia until now
This guy…
"Can't you try to keep up with the times? Even if you can't get used to whiteboards, it's okay to write on scratch paper."
Without a second's pause, Director Li's voice quickly came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Zhou thought that the report on the carbon-based chip had not been written yet. This guy probably wasn't looking for him because of the chip, so he asked.
"no problem."
"Okay." Chen Yang nodded expressionlessly, then continued to look at the blackboard.
Leaving the paper with him for the time being, Lu Zhou walked out of the office filled with chalk dust. He felt the air suddenly become fresh. He took out his cell phone and pressed the connect button.
Although this guy looks a little silly, his intuition and reactions are surprisingly sharp when it comes to mathematical problems. It might not be enough to draw inferences from one instance, but basically as long as Lu Zhou pointed out the areas where he had problems, he could immediately figure out many of the areas that he had originally been unable to figure out.
Soon, the coffee was served.
Lu Zhou: "..."
"I went back and did some research, and these are the rough results... Oh, by the way, your inference is correct. It seems that your mathematical intuition is quite sharp. If this thing is any more difficult, it won't matter. Now I can do math conjectures."
Director Li: "No trouble! If you have time, try to go to Shanghai!"
Hey, it’s so lonely as snow...
He looked back at the things on his blackboard, and then at the stack of A4 paper in Lu Zhou's hand. Chen Yang, who was standing in front of the blackboard, was obviously stunned for a moment. A bit of unbelievable surprise.
Chen Yang shook his head: "The calculations written with that kind of thing have no soul."
Director Li smiled sheepishly and said, "Um, Academician Lu, do you have time recently?"
Lu Zhou coughed slightly and shook the stack of essay paper in his hand.
"An article in one area is of little use to me, but it is still somewhat useful to you... But after all, I made the thing, so you are the second author, do you have any objection?"
So awesome!
This reminded Lu Zhou of a student he once taught at Princeton. That student's name was Qin Yue. He was also a taciturn type who was good at independent thinking. The only difference was that he was not as dull as him.
Looking at Chen Yang who was looking back at the blackboard and thinking deeply, he suddenly remembered something and spoke.
He is really familiar with this thing!
Lu Zhou: "..."
"I'm going out to take a call."
Director Li
Chen Yang nodded: "I understand... three-quarters, there are still some parts I don't quite understand. Can you explain it to me?"
"Hello?"
As expected of Academician Lu!
"sharp!"
It's just a pity that it's still far behind compared to him.
