The Science Fiction World of Xueba

Back to the hotel, it was already 10pm.

Pang Xuelin passed the door of Qi Xin's room, hesitated for a moment, instead of knocking at the door, he sent her a WeChat: "I'm back."

Until bedtime, Qi Xin did not return.

Pang Xuelin didn't send her any more.

However, Yao Bingxia used WeChat to chat with Pang Xuelin from time to time, breaking the film between each other, Yao Bingxia seemed to have endless topics, completely like a little girl in love.

It was not until the next morning that Pang Xuelin saw Qi Xin again.

Qi Xin and seemingly nothing unusual, screaming at a schoolmate, but there is no closeness in the past.

Pang Xuelin was uncomfortable, but he didn't know what to say.

While having breakfast, Pang Xuelin met Wu Zhihui and Zhang Wei who also came to the conference. Before Pang Xuelin became famous, these two were the most prestigious characters in the young generation of Chinese mathematics.

Zhang Wei was the winner of the previous Chenxing Mathematics Prize, and Bian Zhihui was the winner of the Ramanauk Prize of the Samha Institute of Humanities and Science and Technology of India.

In 2017, the two won the New Mathematical Vision Award for discovering and proving higher-order Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures in the function domain.

When Pang Xuelin was studying in the United States, he had followed Tao Zhexuan to participate in some academic conferences and met with them, so they are not strangers to each other.

"Professor Pang, this time the gold medal in mathematics should be that you haven't run away, and I also heard that this time, the gold medal in mathematics may only be awarded to you."

Zhang Wei said.

Pang Xuelin froze slightly, wondering, "Isn't the gold award generally given to two people?"

Bian Zhihui smiled bitterly: "Who made your results so amazing, BSD conjecture, ABC conjecture, Ponzi geometry, partial differential equations ... These results can be reached with just one of them, and you can do it alone Hold four, who dares to be side by side with you now. "

Originally, under normal circumstances, it was possible that Wu Zhihui would compete for this year's gold medal in mathematics.

But with Pang Xuelin's existence, who is qualified to compare with Pang Xuelin.

This is a completely spurting act.

Bian Zhihui either talked with a silver award to console or can only wait for the next competition.

Pang Xuelin smiled and didn't know how to comfort each other for a while.

At this time, Qi Xin sitting beside Pang Xuelin looked at his watch and said, "Professor Pang, it's almost time, we should start."

Pang Xuelin and Qi Xin got up one after the other, followed Zhi Zhihui and Zhang Wei out of the hotel lobby, crossed the road, and went directly into the opposite Tsinghua Garden.

Under the guidance of volunteers, I quickly came to the main venue of this conference-Tsinghua University Auditorium.

At the entrance of the auditorium, Guo Kangcheng, vice president of Tsinghua University, who had already seen yesterday, is receiving guests from all countries.

Pang Xuelin went up and talked with Guo Kangcheng for a few words, then went directly to the hall of the auditorium.

Many people have come in the auditorium. When they saw Pang Xuelin coming in, they knew or didn't know him, and they all came forward and greeted Pang Xuelin.

After all, Pang Xuelin is the largest academic star in this conference of mathematicians, both in terms of his position and academic achievements, and Qiu Chengtong can compare with him with his qualifications and prestige.

Pang Xuelin asked Qi Xin to sit down in the auditorium, and under the guidance of the on-site staff, he stepped onto the stage directly in front of the auditorium.

There are more than a dozen chairs on the stage, all of whom are from around the world to attend the World Chinese Mathematics Congress.

For example, Academician of the European Academy of Sciences, President of the European Research Council Jan Pierre Bougnion, Dean of the Advanced Research Institute of Molecular Atomic Materials Science, Tohoku University, Kotani Kotani, Wolf Prize, Rolf Sauck Prize, Heinz Hopf Prize winner, Richard Sean, professor of the University of California, Irvine, and others.

Behind the chair is a three-segment giant screen projection that reads: The World Chinese Mathematicians Conference-Award Ceremony and Forum and the icon of this conference.

Pang Xuelin's seat is actually in the middle. His left side is Qiu Chengtong, and the right side is the president of Tsinghua University. Other top scholars from home and abroad attending the conference are listed on the left and right sides.

At 9 am, in the opening speech of the host, the 8th World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians officially opened.

First of all, it was Qiu Chengtong and the president of Tsinghua University who were the organizers.

At 10 o'clock, the awards ceremony officially started.

"Last year's mathematical world was a restless year, and it was also the most exciting year since the 21st century. BSD conjecture, ABC conjecture and other major issues that have plagued the international mathematical community for many years have been solved one after another. The young genius scholar shines brightly in the process, and his name resounds throughout the international mathematical community. "

"So, the winner of this year's gold math award is ..."

The host might want to leave a suspense and pause for a moment.

In the end, the audience actually shouted, "Pang Xuelin!"

Immediately after that, there was a loud laughter at the scene.

Sitting next to Pang Xuelin, Qiu Chengtong laughed: "Professor Pang, it seems you won't be able to accept this award."

Sure enough, the host laughed and said, "Okay, now that everyone has snatched my lines, I won't read it. Below, we have invited Academician Qiu Chengtong to present the award to Professor Pang Xuelin!"

Soon, thunderous applause rang through the audience.

"Professor Pang, please!"

Pang Xuelin and Qiu Chengtong successively got up and came to the podium. Qiu Chengtong picked up the medal certificate from the staff and handed it to Pang Xuelin. He said with a smile, "Professor Pang, the development of Chinese mathematics in the future will be more for you!"

Pang Xuelin nodded, and said positively: "Sure!"

The prize of 25,000 US dollars is not much, but this award represents the recognition of Pang Xuelin by the Chinese mathematics community.

Later, Pang Xuelin came to the podium and smiled, "Thank you."

"It is my personal honor to be awarded the Mathematics Award. I am very glad that my work has been recognized by everyone. Today, taking this opportunity, I would like to talk to young scholars who are interested in entering the field of mathematics. "

"As a discipline that has existed since the dawn of human civilization, mathematics is the discipline that saves the most equipment and tools, but it is also the discipline with the most talent and perseverance. It is hard to study mathematics, and it is harder to do mathematical research. Computers At most, it can help you to typeset the finished article beautifully, but it is not helpful to your thinking. The computer can help some branches of mathematics to perform calculations, and it can also help mathematicians to think through some wonderful images, but for most pure Mathematicians love nothing. "

"I asked myself that the talent was very average. Some friends joked that my IQ was 180, but if I measure it accurately, I don't estimate it will exceed 120, in other words, an ordinary ordinary person. If you just look for a copy you can I chose mathematics for my job, and in the near future you will most likely regret it. There is no golden room in the math book, and there is no such thing as Yan Ruyu. Now many students seem to have a little blindness in choosing a major in mathematics. The ground came in. As everyone knows, for decades, the life of an ascetic monk cannot be sustained by ordinary people. "

"I'm lucky to get such honors and recognition at this age, but I don't want to be a role model for many young scholars. Of course, if you are really interested in mathematics, you can immerse yourself in mathematical research. I can enjoy the feeling of forming a line and planning in the process of mathematical research, then I welcome you to join in. What the mathematics community needs is to truly love mathematics and enjoy the fresh blood of mathematics, not just treat it as a A means to make a living. "

"Thank you all, once again for Academician Qiu Chengtong and the Organizing Committee of the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians."

Pang Xuelin bowed to the audience and returned to his place.

Soon the applause rang again, and it didn't go away for a long time.

Qiu Chengtong whispered to Pang Xuelin who returned to his position: "Professor Pang, your award-winning speech is good. During this time, the atmosphere of the domestic mathematics community is indeed a bit impetuous ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ I need you Go and pour cold water. "

Pang Xuelin laughed: "I just felt it and didn't think too much."

Qiu Chengtong smiled and asked, "Yes, Professor Pang, did you only prepare one copy of the award?"

"Ok?"

Pang Xuelin looked at Qiu Chengtong somewhat unknown.

Qiu Chengtong smiled mysteriously and said, "You keep watching."

At this time, the moderator came to the stage again and said, "Thank you very much for Professor Pang's speech. I think most of the scholars present here will feel the same. We also hope that in the future, more scholars who truly love mathematics will enter. Our business. "

"Below, we will announce the second grand prize of the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians, which is the Gold Medal of Applied Mathematics. Its winner is ..."

The host opened the envelope with the winner's name and couldn't help but pause.

The audience could not help but hear a buzzing sound when they saw the host suddenly stuck.

Soon the host responded and said, "Its winner is-Professor Pang Xuelin!"

The voice fell, not only was Pang Xuelin stunned, but the entire hall was also quiet for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, the Tsinghua Grand Hall was boiling like a hot oil pot with water.

The Gold Award in Mathematics and the Gold Award in Applied Mathematics represent the highest awards of the conference.

The Gold Medal for Mathematics generally refers to a breakthrough in pure mathematics, and the Gold Medal for Applied Mathematics generally has a very close combination with other disciplines.

No one expected the organizing committee to give these two awards to the same person.

This is a precedent never seen in history. Even in the future, it is difficult to say whether anyone can win the double award of mathematics and applied mathematics like Pang Xuelin.
