Chapter 1330 Interview with "Nature"

The opening ceremony is over.

Not surprisingly, the moment the door was opened, Luo Wenxuan was surrounded by swarming reporters.

"Hello, Secretary-General Luo, where is Academician Lu?"

"I also want to know where he is, but I'm sorry, probably only he knows."

"...Hello, Mr. Secretary-General! According to the statistics of this reporter, IMCRC has promised a total of 320 million yuan in bonuses today, and the average bonus is as high as 3.2 million yuan! Is this the case?"

"This is an addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problem that anyone can figure out. As long as you don't make a mistake in your calculation, that's it."

"Who will bear the cost? Can IMCRC afford it?"

"40% of the scientific research funds allocated by various countries are responsible for the part, and the remaining 60% comes from donations from all walks of life. As for whether it can afford this question, I will take you as a joke."

"Hello, Secretary-General Luo, what if these difficult problems cannot be completed in the end, or part of them cannot be completed, so that no one will receive these bonuses in the end?"

"Impossible! IMCRC will set up a foundation to independently operate this bonus, and achieve stable growth of assets through a sound investment strategy. Even if IMCRC does not exist one day, this bonus will always exist until someone takes it Walk!"

"Also, although this is the question of the century in the 21st century, if no one solves it in this century, it's okay to answer it in the 22nd or even the 23rd century. If you can't do it, someone can do it for you So... well, please let me go, I need to go to the bathroom now, please save other questions for tomorrow's press conference! Thank you."

Being entangled with these countless questions, Luo Wenxuan's scalp was numb, and Luo Wenxuan didn't want to say a word except MMP. It was already an hour after he finally got rid of these pestering reporters.

night.

As usual, the organizer of the conference organized an academic exchange dinner.

With so many people, there is obviously no way to fit in one hotel.

In order to accommodate as many scholars as possible, IMCRC not only distributed the dinner to five star-rated hotels, but also transformed the first floor of the side hall of the International Convention and Exhibition Center into a zero-hour meal pick-up point, for self-registration. Conference attendees were provided with free meals.

As for the scholars or other invited observers who participated in the Centennial Physics Conference in the No. 1 and No. 2 conference halls that day, they were arranged to have a dinner in the nearby Yihao Hotel.

Although he doesn't have much interest in the banquet, as the chairman of IMCRC and one of the protagonists of the Centennial Physics Conference, it is naturally impossible for Lu Zhou to be absent.

It could even be said that many people came either for the dinner itself or for him.

At the banquet at Yihao Hotel, Ms. Belinda, who had the honor of interviewing Lu Zhou during her internship at CERN, was lucky enough to get a ticket to the banquet and interviewed Lu Zhou.

About nine years ago, she was just an ordinary editor of "Nature Weekly", and now she is an editor-in-chief of the main journal of "Nature".

At the same time, after so many years, she has also changed from a mature woman who still has charm to a mother of three children.

When Lu Zhou learned in the chat that her husband was Professor Greer who had helped him at CERN, a surprised expression suddenly appeared on his face.

At that time, he felt that there might be some stories between the two of them, but he didn't ask too much. He didn't expect that after so many years, the two had entered the palace of marriage from ordinary friends.

After learning about this, Lu Zhou couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Time flies, so fucking fast...

"It's really enviable. You look almost the same as you were nine years ago." Clinking glasses with Lu Zhou, Ms. Belinda joked with a smile, "I heard that there is a mysterious power in the east that can stay clear forever. Is that so?"

Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly.

Naturally, he wouldn't say that it was because of a prize drawn by a system from a higher civilization.

"Maybe it's because I don't look old...Of course, so do you."

"Thank you, although this does not sound convincing, obviously I am not young anymore," Belinda teased herself, and continued, "This rare opportunity, can I interview you with a few questions?"

Lu Zhou said kindly, "No problem, just ask."

Ms. Belinda smiled, and said, "The first question may sound boring, but many people are very curious...why did you put out 100 million yuan to offer a reward for the Grand Unified Theory."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou said, "There are two reasons. One reason is naturally because I think it is important enough, and the other reason is because... I think it is hopeful that it will be resolved within this century."

In fact, there is another reason, and that is because money is not bad.

But it's too pretentious to say so, he is not a person who likes to pretend, so he didn't tell the reason.

"The physics community believes that you are the most promising person to solve this problem."

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Really? Maybe, but unfortunately... I may not put my main experience in physics, especially theoretical physics research in the future."

The unified theory of strong electricity opens the door to the grand unified theory, the theory of void expands the horizon of human civilization to an extra dimension beyond time for the first time, and the theory of hyperspace gives wings to the ideal of expeditions across galaxies.

Lu Zhou felt that as a physicist, if he has achieved this level of knowledge, let alone be proud for a lifetime, even if he will be proud with him in the next life, there is no problem.

If you want to break through yourself again, I am afraid that you have to build the warp speed engine seriously, or stick your head into the void to see what is there that scares even the observer civilization.

As for other research...

It can't be said that he is not interested, but Lu Zhou still hopes to leave these opportunities for growth to other potential scholars.

Hearing this sentence, Belinda opened her mouth in surprise and asked hastily.

"Wait a minute, what do you mean by that? Are you... intending to retire?"

If this is true...

The news was too explosive.

"That's not true." Lu Zhou shook his head, denied her statement, and continued, "It's just that when you can't achieve greater achievements in this field, you have to consider giving others a chance."

"No discipline can rely on the power of one person to achieve real prosperity. Rather than creating more achievements in this field, I hope that my research can influence some people and let them create more miracle."

I was shocked by the thoughts expressed in this sentence.

After staring at Lu Zhou intently for a while, Belinda suddenly sighed with emotion.

"Is that why you left mathematics?"

"Leaving the world of mathematics? No, I never left the world of mathematics," Lu Zhou shook his head lightly, "It's just that instead of studying mathematics itself, I now pay more attention to how to strengthen its connection with other disciplines, and how to use it to Solve more problems, and this is something that many good mathematicians like me, most of them are not willing to do."

Having said that, Lu Zhou paused for a moment, smiled and continued.

"I think, my attitude toward physics."

"Probably the same."
