Chapter 256: Their Futures

Boys' dormitory, No. 201.

Since Lu Zhou left, the four-person dormitory has become a three-person dormitory. But even without a good friend, the college life of the three of them didn't feel too lonely, and even a lot more colorful.

If the Cole Award is just the first step to soaring, then Lu Zhou, who won the Craford Award, is already in the immortal class in the eyes of the students of the Mathematics Academy. As for Shattering the Void, stepping on the Milky Way doesn't seem to be a distant thing.

Especially those master students and doctoral students who quietly watched Lu Zhou change from a junior to a senior, and then from a senior to a doctoral supervisor, every time they recalled that deified name, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion at their mortal fate.

It is precisely because of this that during the exam month at the end of the semester, people will occasionally come here to worship... oh no, to worship the God of Lu.

These people don't do anything else when they come, they often just sit on Lu Zhou's chair, and then babble some sentences that they can't understand or understand. After waiting for a few minutes, probably feeling that they had absorbed enough of Lu Shen's European energy, the "Xian Huo Ke" picked up their backpacks and went to self-study contentedly.

Later, this kind of atmosphere was not only limited to several institutes, but even the software institute next door would occasionally come over, because everyone remembered that after Lu Shen's first paper on Fourier inversion transformation, he was still domineering. The General Journal published nine computer papers.

Although why Lu Shen published those nine computer papers in the first place is still an unsolved mystery, but after all, he was fortunate enough to have a little lover of computers.

Just like that, after going back and forth like this, although Lu Zhou's table and chairs have not been used for so long, there is not much dust on them.

Most of them were wiped clean by the sleeves of those "pilgrims".

Due to the fact that there were so many people here, Brother Fei and Huang Guangming even joked when they had a night chat in the dormitory.

Of course, it's just a joke, if you really do this, you won't even think about graduating.

At this moment, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open again.

Before a pair of eyes looked over, the familiar voice came from the door.

"201, your emperor is back..."

The atmosphere became inexplicably cold.

Pairs of eyes stared at him, making Lu Zhou feel a little embarrassed.

"Uh... is there something on my face?"

He originally thought that if he said this in a humorous tone like Xiaojian, the brothers in 201 would feel very cordial, but he didn't expect it to not.

Liu Rui: "Lu Zhou..."

Huang Guangming: "Elbow."

Brother Fei took a deep breath, stood up, his voice trembling with excitement: "You... are back."

"Please don't be so sensational, I'm too embarrassed to come in." Lu Zhou said with a dry cough.

The school arranged a place for him to stay in a five-star hotel nearby. Although he personally opposed extravagance and waste, the school had already booked a room for him, so it was hard for him to refuse.

Before heading back to the hotel, though, he wanted to get together with his brothers.

After all, it's been a while since we saw each other.

...

Xiaoyuzhuang at the door.

The boss who brought the grilled fish to the table looked at Lu Zhou unexpectedly.

Maybe it's because I feel a bit like the guy I saw on the news, maybe it's because I'm wondering why this guy is back.

But the boss didn't say much, just like Lu Zhou didn't know his name, he didn't know the names of Lu Zhou's students either, just because he was familiar with him when he came here for the past three years.

Food and beer are on the table.

We haven't seen each other for a long time, even if there is no beer to pry the chatterbox, we still have a lot to talk about.

Through the mouths of Brother Fei, Lu Zhou learned what happened at the school after he left, and at the request of Brother Fei, he briefly talked about life in Princeton.

After all, it is a sacred place in the mathematics world. When listening to it, the three of them looked yearning.

Especially Liu Rui, he probably also has plans to go abroad for further study, but not at the master's level, but a Ph.D.

After drinking a glass of beer, Liu Rui said with a melancholy expression.

"After graduation, I plan to continue my studies."

Lu Zhou: "Applied mathematics?"

"It is, but not entirely." Liu Rui shook his head, paused for a moment, and said, "I plan to go to Yanda to study functional analysis."

"Functional analysis is a subject with wide application. Whether it is in the industry or in the laboratory, talents in this field are needed. I used to want to develop in this field, but I became a monk and studied number theory. In short, come on!"

Lu Zhou clinked glasses with Liu Rui and sent his blessing.

During this period of time, Liu Rui's growth has also been obvious.

Maybe it's because I influenced him unconsciously, or maybe it's because of his own epiphany that he made the change. In short, the current him gives people the impression that he is no longer a pseudo-scholar, but a real student with ideals and ambitions.

When talking about life ideals, Xiaojian is naturally indispensable. Every time I arrive in the dormitory at 12 o'clock, I count his favorite topic.

"I also plan to continue my studies, but I can't do mathematics anymore, so I plan to change my major."

Lu Zhou: "Change your major?"

"Well," Huang Guangming scratched the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly, "I'm pretty good at calculations, but I'm not good at more difficult theories. I plan to take an accountant or something as a graduate student, and my family members also suggest the same. , It is said that this major is more popular.”

Shi Shang, who was sitting next to him, sighed and said with a smile: "You all went to study, it seems that I graduated directly."

"Stop reading?" Lu Zhou asked unexpectedly.

Logically speaking, there are four of them in the dormitory, and Brother Fei's family conditions should be the best.

"I don't want to read anymore," Shi Shang shook his head, and smiled sassyly, "I've read enough books, and I should go out into the society. And, as a man, I have to give Jingya a happy future."

Yajing is Brother Fei's girlfriend. Lu Zhou has met her several times. She is a good girl.

It can be seen that this relationship has made him mature a lot.

Lu Zhou: "Are you planning to get married?"

"Yes," Shi Shang nodded, and said in a relaxed but not frivolous tone, "I will get married in three years. As for these three years, I will rely on my own efforts to earn a wedding house."

For fresh graduates, it is not easy to earn a house in three years without the help of their parents, even if it is only a down payment, even if they graduated from 985.

But since Brother Fei has the courage to say this, Lu Zhou feels that this courage and responsibility alone is worthy of admiration.

Raising his wine glass, Lu Zhou sent his blessings: "I wish you success in your career, and don't forget to send me an invitation card when the time comes."

The two clinked glasses, Shi Shang said with a smile.

"must!"

...

After drinking very late with the three buddies in the dormitory, after taking a taxi back to the hotel, Lu Zhou fell asleep and slept until noon the next day, when he was woken up by Dean Qin's phone call.

Only then did he remember that there was another report to be made in the afternoon.

After a leisurely shower, he went to the lobby on the first floor of the hotel to finish his buffet. When Lu Zhou returned to his room and changed into his formal clothes, the car that came to pick him up just arrived.

A long time ago, the medicine given by the system lottery had strengthened his metabolism, and the effects of the hangover did not leave any obvious traces on his body.

When he walked out of the hotel in formal attire, he looked refreshed, and it was impossible to tell that he had been drinking until eight or nine o'clock yesterday.

Sitting in the school's special car, he came to the old campus of Jinling University. Lu Zhou adjusted his tie and walked into the auditorium with rich history.

The content of the report is naturally Goldbach's conjecture.

As in Sweden, this is also a large auditorium with a capacity of thousands of people. When the lecture started, the auditorium was full of seats. And Lu Zhou, who had already experienced it once, seemed very calm and skilled this time.

The people present were not only professors from Jinling University and masters and doctors in pure mathematics, but also people who came from Yanda, Mizuki, Aurora, Kaida, and Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Especially on the Shuimu side, almost all the elders from the Hua Luogeng school came.

When the lecture was halfway through, many people burst into tears.

From the "group construction method", they can see the shadow of the big sieve method, and they can also see the painstaking efforts of the predecessors reborn in the new theory.

The great sieve method has never come to an end, just as people in the past thought that the sieve method created by Eratosthenes in ancient Greece was irreversible.

Old theories are never completely outdated, they just need to be adapted to new problems...
