Xueba starts with change

Chapter 509 Mathematics is my first step, but not the last

After finally escaping from the crowd, Chen Zhou quickly wiped the sweat off his forehead.

No matter how many times he experienced this situation, Chen Zhou still felt terrible.

He doesn't really like the feeling of being surrounded by crowds.

Those enthusiastic people who approached each other were like scourges.

Especially those female students with proud figures and soft bodies are simply the tigers in that sentence.

After taking a breather, Chen Zhou began to look at the senior from the mathematics department beside him, who dared to follow him until now.

However, Chen Zhou, who was about to make a move, stopped raising his hand again.

He suddenly thought of a very practical thing.

Moreover, Chen Zhou was quite sure that Senior Brother Liu would definitely agree.

After thinking for a while, Chen Zhou organized his words: "Well, Brother Liu, can I discuss something with you?"

Liu Maosheng also deeply felt the enthusiasm of those reporters, those colleagues who regard Chen Zhou as the new generation of mathematics gods.

Of course, he didn't have the scary feeling that Chen Zhou felt.

On the contrary, he thinks it feels almost too good to be true.

The feeling of being surrounded by the crowd, like the stars holding the moon, is simply not too pleasant.

So, hearing Chen Zhou's voice, Liu Maosheng thought that Chen Zhou wanted to tell him about the wonderful feeling just now.

So, he said excitedly: "Student brother, it's so cool to follow you, I've never been surrounded by reporters, all of them treat you like a treasure!"

"Not to mention those crowds who came over, each of these people seems to be eating you up. Tsk tsk tsk, looking at the expressions of those people, I finally understand what the big brother means..."

Hearing these words, Chen Zhou was immediately relieved.

It seems that people's feelings are indeed not the same.

He doesn't like to be interviewed, and he doesn't like the excitement of being chased by people.

But someone will like it.

At this time, Liu Maosheng finally recovered a little bit from the feeling of immersion.

However, looking at that expression, he should still be thinking about it.

Liu Maosheng also remembered what Chen Zhou asked, and he said curiously: "By the way, what did you just say?"

With Liu Maosheng's words just now, Chen Zhou didn't hesitate anymore. He said to Liu Maosheng, "Senior Brother Liu, I think you are handling the interview well. You are very good at handling such big scenes."

"Especially because you are still a high-achieving student in the Harvard Department of Mathematics, you can deal with such a big scene after the math report with ease. It's not amazing!"

Although Liu Maosheng was a little embarrassed by Chen Zhou's praise, his mood became more and more comfortable.

After coughing twice, Liu Maosheng said with a face of approval: "Student brother, I think you still have vision, do you know? I didn't want to choose the Department of Mathematics at first, but my old man wanted me to do whatever he wanted." Choosing this will delay my talent in this area.”

When Chen Zhou heard the words, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, yes, this talent must be fully utilized!"

"Oh..." Liu Maosheng sighed softly, "I can't help it, I probably won't have this opportunity, and I'm still worrying about my doctoral thesis."

After finishing speaking, Liu Maosheng quickly adjusted his mood again, and said to Chen Zhou with a smile: "Student brother, thank you for looking up to me so much, and discovering my little-known talent. Don't worry about anything, just say, I'll do my best to do whatever you're told!"

Chen Zhou didn't go around in circles anymore, he praised everything and made people feel comfortable, so why not go straight to the point?
Although when he said these words, Chen Zhou's hands could never touch his conscience.

As long as there is a person here, he can't say these words.

But as long as it can avoid such a terrible scene later on.

He didn't want to experience such a scene in the future report meeting.

"Senior brother Liu, I just want to, you can help me solve this kind of situation in the future."

Liu Maosheng was taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly realized it.

Chen Zhou is planning to make himself his spokesperson?
Then wouldn't I be able to pretend to be good in the future?

Enjoying these blood-fueled moments?

Although I was pretending for Chen Zhou, it was also pretending!

Thinking about it, Liu Maosheng suddenly became distracted.

If they follow Chen Zhou, then there will be big scenes one by one in the future?

However, after thinking about it, Liu Maosheng's face became bitter again.

If the old man in his family knew about this, he would definitely be ripped off.

Therefore, Liu Maosheng hesitated again.

Chen Zhou naturally noticed the change of expression on Liu Maosheng's face.

His heart skipped a beat, how could the excitement on his face disappear?

After thinking for a while, Chen Zhou said: "Senior brother Liu, if it's difficult, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Hearing this, Liu Maosheng took a look at Chen Zhou, gritted his teeth, and said, "Student brother, I have said everything, how can I take it back? I agree to your matter. From now on, I will be your exclusive speaker." people!"

Hearing this, Chen Zhou immediately felt relieved.

In fact, Liu Maosheng, who has never been interested in mathematics research, might actually make a real discovery if he changes his direction.

It can only be said that Chen Zhou gave him a new choice.

After separating from Liu Maosheng, Chen Zhou went straight to his room.

Before the dinner began, he planned to take a short break.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that there were still people waiting outside his room door.

Chen Zhou took the initiative to say hello: "Professor Deligne, are you here to see me?"

Deligne turned his head slowly and said with a smile: "You came faster than I expected. I thought you were still surrounded by reporters."

Hearing Deligne's words, Chen Zhou shook his head helplessly: "I escaped with great difficulty. This kind of scene is really..."

Deligne nodded understandingly: "Mathematicians are lonely most of the time. It is understandable that you are not used to this kind of occasion. But with your current achievements, there will only be more and more such occasions. You still have to learn to adapt."

Chen Zhou nodded, but said nothing.

He even found his own exclusive spokesperson. Will he still be afraid of such occasions in the future?
"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Deligne pointed to Chen Zhou's room.

Hearing this, Chen Zhou took out his room card and opened the door.

The two entered the room.

Chen Zhou started to boil the water on his own, and did not rush to ask Deligne why he came to find him.

On the contrary, Deligne glanced at Chen Zhou in surprise, and said inwardly, "This kid, are you afraid of getting my standard guess?"

No way, Deligne had to take the initiative to say: "Chen Zhou, do you have any new considerations about what I said last time?"

Chen Zhou handed the brewed instant coffee to Deligne, took a sip himself, and said softly, "Professor Deligne, I think my answer should be the same as before."

Although he had expected it in his heart, Deligne still couldn't help being a little disappointed.

If Chen Zhou can join his research group and study the standard conjecture together.

He believes that their research will definitely have some different changes.

Because Chen Zhou can always bring surprising performances.

Among other things, just take this Goldbach's conjecture as an example, that's it.

After Harold Hoofgot's report was completely over, he discussed the fatal flaw pointed out by Chen Zhou with Faltings, Langlands and others.

However, to Deligne's surprise, none of them discovered that defect.

Even, their ideas and solutions there are the same as Harold Hoofgot.

Although Chen Zhou took advantage of being more familiar with the distribution deconstruction method, this advantage is far from enough to cause such a big gap.

To put it bluntly, Deligne and the others felt a sense of enlightenment after Chen Zhou pointed out that fatal flaw.

It is enough to show Chen Zhou's ability to make them who stand at the top of the pyramid in the mathematics world feel this way.

"Well then, I really hope you don't miss this question that is far more interesting than Goldbach's conjecture." Deligne picked up the coffee and took a sip.

Chen Zhou replied with a smile: "No."

Deligne put down the coffee cup and glanced at Chen Zhou: "Okay, now that the private matter is over, it's time to get down to business."

Hearing this, Chen Zhou was stunned for a moment, it turned out that it was not a serious matter just now.

Deligne continued: "That's right, I'm here to find you, and one more thing, Princeton University hopes to hire you as a professor in the Department of Mathematics, and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study hopes to hire you as a researcher."

This time, Deligne's words really surprised Chen Zhou.

What does it mean that Princeton University and the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study made simultaneous moves?
This represents the olive branch of the World Mathematics Center, and it means that Chen Zhou will be able to communicate and cooperate with many people who stand at the top of the pyramid in the mathematics world in the future.

This is the dream of countless mathematicians!

This is also something that Chen Zhou did not expect at all.

Before he attended MIT, Princeton really wanted to poach him and go to Princeton to study as a graduate student.

But that's just graduate students.

Compared with the current professorship and researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, it is completely different.

Chen Zhou never expected that Princeton would have such courage!

Not to mention the teaching position at Princeton University, but more importantly, the post of researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

You know, there are only a handful of mathematicians in Huaguo who have worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

The only person Chen Zhou could think of was Mr. Chen.

And right now, there isn't even a single one.

Facing such an olive branch, to be honest, Chen Zhou was a little moved.

From the perspective of future development, the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton can also give him a broader space.

However, Chen Zhou already had his own ideas.

And mathematics is not everything to him.

Seeing that Chen Zhou remained silent, Deligne said again: "You don't have to rush to agree, just give me the answer before you graduate from MIT."

After speaking, Deligne picked up the coffee again and took a sip.

In his opinion, no one in this world should be able to refuse such an invitation.

Especially for a mathematician.

He did not believe that any mathematician would refuse the invitation of Princeton, which represents the world mathematics center.

Therefore, when he said this, he was confident enough.

He also believed that Chen Zhou would take over the olive branch.

At the same time, Deligne also has his own little thoughts.

As long as Chen Zhou comes to Princeton, he will have more time to make Chen Zhou interested in the standard conjecture.

Just when Deligne took a leisurely sip of coffee and was about to boast that Chen Zhouchong's coffee tastes good, Chen Zhou spoke.

"Well, Professor Deligne, I have already considered it..." Chen Zhou pondered for a while, and finally said with a smile, "This is indeed a very attractive invitation. I admit that I am very tempted, but in my plan Unfortunately, I missed Princeton. So, I'm afraid I can't accept this invitation."

Hearing Chen Zhou's words, the coffee in Deligne's hand almost spilled because he couldn't hold it firmly.

He never thought that Chen Zhou would refuse this invitation anyway.

Not to mention anything else, this invitation is absolutely top-notch in this world.

Even for some long-established mathematicians, it is difficult to refuse this invitation.

What's more, the person in front of him is only 21 years old!

Deligne couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure out why Chen Zhou refused the invitation.

He stared closely at Chen Zhou, trying to see something from the face of the young man in front of him.

But to his disappointment, Chen Zhou's expression was as calm as his appearance at the report meeting.

"Have you really thought about it? Do you want to think about it again? There is no rush for this matter. You have enough time to think about it... You must know that this is a professorship in the Department of Mathematics of Princeton University, and it is a full professorship." , and a position as a senior researcher at Princeton..." Deligne tried to redeem himself.

Unfortunately, the young man in front of Deligne is Chen Zhou.

Chen Zhou took a deep breath and tried his best to keep his heart firm.

To be honest, he really made a lot of determination to make this decision.

If this matter gets out, everyone will be puzzled by Chen Zhou's choice.

Chen Zhou shook his head, and said slowly: "I'm sorry, Professor Deligne, I've thought it through very clearly."

After a pause, Chen Zhou said with a smile: "Even if I am not in Princeton, I believe we can have sufficient communication and communication. In mathematics, I still have a lot to learn. I hope you will not reject me in the future." mail."

Deligne really couldn't see through, and couldn't understand the young man in front of him.

He said helplessly: "May I know the reason for your choice? Is it because MIT also invited you?"

Chen Zhou shook his head: "That's not true."

Deligne wondered: "Why is that?"

Chen Zhou thought for a while and said softly: "Because mathematics is only my first step, but it will not be my last step. I don't want myself to be constrained by the environment, but to find a suitable environment for myself."

After hearing Chen Zhou's words, Deligne was speechless for a long time.

He suddenly thought of something he had overlooked...

Chen Zhou seems to have a good chance of winning the Nobel Prize in Physics because of the glue ball experiment?

So, his goal is far more than mathematics? !
