Chapter 1393 Trouble Is a Bit Big

Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Institute of Mathematics.

Sitting at the desk and looking at the thesis, Director Dai Huohong squinted his eyes, stroking his sparse beard and saying it full of praise.

"Wonderful, really wonderful!"

Unlike Professor Faltings.

After seeing the proof of the ABC conjecture, Director Dai's reaction was quite frank. It took less than ten minutes to flip through the paper from beginning to end, and then farted rainbow farts in the air.

Academician Xiang Huanan, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't take it anymore, and couldn't help but complain.

"What are you doing there?"

After closing the paper, Director Dai said with a smile.

"Of course it's that paper by Academician Lu, what else could it be?"

Academician Xiang: "..."

Although he really wanted to joke, "Do you understand what he wrote? It's so clever and funny", but he still resisted the urge to complain and changed the subject.

"Some time ago, I told you not to rush to poach people everywhere, and told you to wait and see the situation at Jinling University, but you didn't listen. Now, Academician Lu led the team to solve this problem by himself. You never Where are the Chinese professors of number theory dug back from overseas institutions going to arrange?"

"I've dug it all over, let's keep it, what else can I do." Director Dai was open-minded and didn't feel that he was at a loss, and said with a smile, "The problem can't be solved, so just kick him away? Anyway, the money for poaching people is a special fund allocated by the Ministry of Science and Technology, and it will not occupy the resources of other projects in the institute. What if it is used someday in the future? These are not good."

Academician Xiang Huanan couldn't help cursing and said.

"You old guy is really good at planning."

"What kind of chicken thief is not chicken thief, you can't change it to a better word!"

It is impossible to say that it is not a pity.

After all, whoever proves the ABC conjecture has the hope of getting the 100 million annual research funding.

Although the 100 million is not directly given to the scientific research institution, but goes with the person who solves the problem, but when the money is allocated, it is impossible to directly transfer it to the professor's account, right?

Generally speaking, it is first transferred to the special account for scientific research funds of the university or research institute, and then reimbursed in batches according to the usage.

As a common practice in academia, colleges and universities will draw a management fee from it. As for the proportion of the commission, it is determined according to a series of factors such as the management rules issued by the relevant departments, the position of the professor, the scale of the fund, the nature of the horizontal and vertical projects, etc. The average is about 5% to 10%. Files, and the latter is the majority, and it can even account for 30 to 40%, but it is not common in China.

So why do all major universities like to compete for academicians?

One of the most direct reasons is because of money!

What a happy thing it is to have 100 million scientific research funds lying on the account. I believe that no need to explain, it can be felt by individuals.

Even if you don’t consider the management fee of five points or ten points, this money is enough to support the “sub-projects” under countless large projects, as well as the Yangtze River scholars, youths, and scientific research brick-movers who rely on sub-projects to make a living. They are gone.

Thinking of this, Director Dai still felt a little heartbroken.

If it weren't for Lu Zhou, Cheng Yaojin who came in halfway, the Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences, which has dug a basket of corners from Princeton and Paris Normal University, should be the most promising person in China to solve the ABC conjecture.

And no matter how much this probability is, at least it is relatively the largest.

But what to say, although this piece of meat seems to be out of reach, there may be other opportunities in the future.

After all, the days are still long, and there are still many opportunities to communicate with that "extraterrestrial civilization". Seeing that they are so persistent in the ABC conjecture, it is likely that they have a soft spot for the charm of mathematics.

In this regard, not only Director Dai who "does not know the inside story" is full of confidence, but most of the domestic mathematics research institutions have similar ideas.

The so-called, friends are counted.

It is not certain that one day in the future, number theory will become the first bridge of friendship between the earth civilization and the extraterrestrial civilization...

...

Regarding the impact the proof of the ABC conjecture will have on the mathematics community and the world, Lu Zhou actually had some ideas before uploading the paper.

However, even though he considered many things, he still underestimated the scale of the tsunami to a certain extent.

And, the attack area is wide!

Especially when Xiao Ai told him that the Arxiv website was crushed and paralyzed on the day the paper was uploaded, and it was definitely not done by himself, Lu Zhou couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

What do you say?

It seems that the whole world regards the ABC conjecture as the key to open the door to dialogue with extraterrestrial civilizations.

The governments of various countries even convened the United Nations General Assembly for this reason, and urgently negotiated to establish a loose political alliance similar to the "Human Alliance" or "Earth Federation" in order to seek a unified position on "foreign-related" issues and to study "foreign-related" issues that are in line with the overall interests of mankind. "policy.

However, only Lu Zhou himself knows where there is any "extraterrestrial civilization". Maybe it does exist in a corner of the universe, but at least for now, everything is just a mirror image.

And the key in my hand is not as awesome as people imagined. What it can open is just a treasure chest left by a void civilization.

If there are only a few thousand tubes of energy potions in it, or a large pile of processed alloy ore, then the joke will be big.

According to the pissing nature of this broken system in playing cards unreasonably when claiming prizes, maybe it is really possible to make such an international joke with him.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Lu Zhou now only hopes that the result of his trip to Mars will not have any negative impact on the future development of human civilization.

Especially those "people's unions" and "earth unions"...

Every time Director Li excitedly asked him which name sounded better and could show other countries the demeanor of Hua Guo, Lu Zhou was so anxious that his head would explode.

But they had to come up with ideas together with a smile on their faces.

After all, regardless of the inside information that only he knows, this is indeed a great joyous event for the whole world to celebrate. Be happy if you don't show it. It's really hard to explain when the problem is exposed in the future.

In addition to these large influences, there are also some aftermaths that rippling in a small area.

For example, according to Xiao Ai's report, because of the paralysis of the Arxiv server, the number of visits to the LSPM website attached to his personal homepage and papers suddenly became another outlet for this huge traffic.

The average number of daily visitors exceeded one million, and tens of thousands of posts gathered together to seek resources. This temporary BBS-style discussion page suddenly became the world's largest academic exchange forum.

Faced with such a situation, Lu Zhou was also unexpected.

After some consideration, he finally adopted Xiao Ai's suggestion, allowing him to upgrade the website and open up several additional sub-category sections.

On the one hand, it is to divert the spectators and provide an environment for discussion and irrigation for those who do not know the truth. On the other hand, it also allows those who can pass the threshold of answering questions and really come to the paper itself to exchange academic issues.

After all, the original intention of Lu Zhou to establish this temporary discussion page is to give everyone in the entire mathematics community a chance to review manuscripts together.

At the same time, by the way, let's improve the achievements of him and his teammates...

In this way, time passed day by day, and the day of departure was getting closer and closer.

After several meetings and discussions, the timetable for the launch plan was successfully released.

The second wave of migrants heading to the Guanghan Special Economic Zone will start in mid-May.

At the same time, the scientific research team going to Mars will also follow this flight to the Moon Palace, stop there for a while, and transfer to a new colony ship to go to the desert planet tens of millions of kilometers away.

Although he felt a headache for the second contact that was about to start, Lu Zhou had no better way. He could only hold the attitude of going straight from the boat to the bridge and take a step forward.

However, just when he had made all the preparations to go to Mars, something unexpected happened.

Lu Zhou never expected that Schultz, who had just returned to Germany, was sent back to Jinling.

Moreover, Director Li came with him...
