Chapter 487 The Battle Begins

490 chapter

Cheng Nuo stretched out his hand to signal, "Please speak."

The island mathematician pushed his glasses and stared at Cheng Nuo, "Professor Cheng, I found that many new theories appeared in your paper proving the BSD conjecture?"

Cheng Nuo nodded, "That's right."

"Then I would like to ask, why did you, Professor Cheng, put so much effort into deriving those few new theorems instead of... standing on the shoulders of giants and using the existing theories in the mathematics world?" Mathematician of the island country The voice suddenly increased, "Can I understand it this way, Professor Cheng, you don't like the theory that algebraists have painstakingly researched for decades!"

As soon as the words came out, there was an uproar!

This is... Openly flirting with Cheng Nuo?
Many people looked at Cheng Nuo on the stage as if they were enjoying the show, to see how he would react.

Cheng Nuo smiled.

If it wasn't for such a serious occasion, Cheng Nuo would have laughed out loud.

This island country mathematician is too weird!

The mathematician probably didn't understand his paper, and dared to stand up and ask such a "smart" question.

Cheng Nuo suppressed the smile on his face, and looked at the island mathematician as if he was staring at a mentally retarded man.

"As for the reason, I won't explain it to you. You probably wouldn't understand it if I explained it. How about this." Cheng Nuo's mouth curled up, "Professor, if you don't use what I proposed in my thesis A few new theorems, and the correct proof of the BSD conjecture, how about I transfer the one million prize awarded to me by the Cray Mathematics Institute to you. If it is not enough, I can add another one million."

Cheng Nuo raised two fingers and looked at the island mathematician with a smile.

The audience burst into laughter.

There are many people who understand here.

Why did Cheng Nuo create his own theorems instead of using existing theorems in the mathematics world to prove the BSD conjecture?

It's not because the existing mathematical theory can't solve the BSD conjecture!

If it weren't for this, the BSD conjecture would have been proven long ago, and it wouldn't be Cheng Nuo's turn.

In the eyes of Cheng Nuo and the rest of them, this mathematician from the island country is nothing more than a clown.

back row.

The island country mathematician's face flushed for a while, and finally he said in a dull mosquito voice, "I don't have that level."

If you don't have that level, you are beeping wool here!
Cheng Nuo shrugged and smiled kindly, "You can ask others for help, as long as you can explain that the existing mathematical theory can prove the BSD conjecture. As for who that person is, I don't care."

Professor Daoguo's eyes lit up, "Professor Cheng, are you serious?"

Cheng Nuo tilted his head and smiled, "It's only two million dollars, I don't care."

Professor Daoguo's eyes became brighter.

$200 million!

Cheng Nuo could say it so calmly, but he couldn't.

Even though he is a professor at the University of Tokyo, he also works part-time in a company next to the university in his spare time, but he is only a pure mathematics mathematician after all, and his ability to earn money is naturally not as good as that of applied scientific researchers .

200 million US dollars is his salary for nearly five years.

Besides, Cheng Nuo's condition, in his opinion, has a great possibility of being fulfilled.

With his own level, it is naturally impossible to prove the BSD conjecture, which is a difficult problem of the century, but his senior brother may be able to!
After all, his senior brother is the well-known prover of the ABC conjecture in the world of mathematics, Ueda Shinichi!

Uh... Although his brother's identity as the ABC conjecture prover has not been recognized by the mathematics community, and he has not won the world's top awards such as the Fields Medal and the Wolf Medal.But in terms of level, he believes that senior brother Ueda Shinichi will not be weaker than any Philippine award winner!
After receiving Cheng Nuo's affirmative answer, the island country mathematician sat down contentedly.

He didn't even notice the playfulness of the audience next to him.

Reporting will continue.

Later, several mathematicians got up to ask questions one after another.But the questions asked are all academic questions, not the fault-finding method like the island country mathematician.

Finally, with the applause of the audience, the nearly three-hour "BSD Conjecture Symposium" came to a successful conclusion.

Looking at the audience who had almost finished walking in the auditorium, Dean Ding came to Cheng Nuo with a grin, and patted Cheng Nuo's shoulder hard, "Cheng Nuo, you are doing well!"

Cheng Nuo smiled, "Dean, I have already said that I can still hold this kind of small scene."

"By the way, your $200 million..."

"Dean, don't worry, I know it well. If someone can really use another method to prove the BSD conjecture, then this method is worth the price of 200 million. However, I think no one will succeed. My money , it’s not so easy to get!”

…………

Island country.

Ichiro Ida, oh, that is, the mathematician from the island country who openly feuded with Cheng Nuo at the report meeting, he did not stay in China for a long time at the end of the report meeting, and directly caught the nearest flight to fly back to the island country Tokyo.

At the University of Tokyo, walking through a path covered with cherry blossom trees, Ida Ichiro came to a research institute.

"I want to see Professor Ueda."

"Mr. Ida, Professor Ueda is in the office on the third floor."

Ida Ichiro nodded, walked anxiously to the door of an office on the third floor, and knocked on the door.

"Please come in! Ichiro, is it you?"

Ueda Shinichi is in his early 50s this year, wearing a pair of glasses, sitting at his desk with a serious face.

As one of the backbone of the island country's mathematics community, Ueda Shinichi's mathematics level is rated as mediocre in the world, but in the island country, there are countless people flocking to him.

"Brother, I want to trouble you with something!" Ida Ichiro bowed his head.

after an hour……

Ida Ichiro walked out of the office contentedly, his steps brisk.

"Heh, 200 million US dollars, Professor Cheng, I hope you won't break your promise then."

Ida Shinichi raised his head and said to himself.

…………

The next day.

Ueda Shinichi posted a paragraph on his blog, announcing the attack on the BSD conjecture!

Of course, using the word "conquer" is not quite accurate, because the BSD conjecture was conquered by Cheng Nuo a month ago.

What Ueda Shinichi meant was that, as Cheng Nuo said, he planned to use the existing mathematical theory to defeat the behemoth BSD conjecture!

This is very interesting!

And it quickly aroused great repercussions in the international mathematics community.

If it was just a little transparent mathematician like Ichiro Ida, then after a few days, this incident might be gradually forgotten by everyone, and then it would be regarded as a joke after dinner when I accidentally remembered it.

But the addition of Ueda Shinichi made this matter completely different.

Perhaps most of them didn't expect that Ichiro Ida really invited a helper, and he was still a "heavyweight".

This dispute, which started from Ueda Shinichi’s blog post, is no longer a simple issue of $200 million.

To put it mildly, it was the personal conflict between Cheng Nuo and Ueda Shinichi.

Speaking of a little older, that is enough to rise to the confrontation between the mathematics circles of Huaguo and the mathematics circles of Island Kingdom!
