I kidnapped an alien civilization

Yanda, Cafe

The lights are dim, and the soothing low-pitched music creates a different atmosphere. Young couples in twos and threes sat facing each other.

Li Mo regretted agreeing to Wei Xiaolai to come here, and he tasted the bitter coffee. Human beings are such strange creatures who always like to masturbate themselves, and get pleasure from masochistic. Tobacco is like this, tea is like this, and coffee is like this.

Wei Xiaonian on the opposite side was flipping through his On: Odd-Number Perfect Conjecture, very fast, in less than an hour, Wei Xiaonian flipped through the paper. Then he smiled and said, The paper is great, but I can't read it.

I don't understand, I'm still pretending here, wasting an hour in vain. Li Mo's heart and soul.

Professor Wu has already seen it. He said directly.

Hearing this, Wei Xiaonian's confidence increased a bit. He smiled and said, The teacher has already read it, so of course there is no problem. Which foreign magazine are you planning to vote for? I have dealt with all major well-known magazines. A few acquaintances.

It seems that half a year has passed, Wei Xiaonian has made great progress, and has already expanded his business abroad.

Li Mo shook his head and said, I'm going to vote for your Mathematics Monthly.

What? Wei Xiaonian stood up from his seat all of a sudden, drawing attention from the young lovers around him.

Realizing his gaffe, he sat down slowly, and asked Li Mo: This is an odd perfect conjecture, a world-class problem, a problem that the great god Euler has not yet proved, you want to contribute to our magazine?

Seeing his surprise, Li Mo knew his decision was correct. Now even Wei Xiaonian, the editor of a domestic magazine, feels that excellent papers should be submitted to foreign journals. This is the tragedy of the academic world.

Yes, I just want to submit a paper to Mathematics Monthly. Li Mo nodded heavily, Why, isn't this paper not qualified? He asked again in doubt.

Faced with Li Mo's questioning, Wei Xiaonian blushed and said, Quite qualified, too qualified.

It's fine if you are not qualified. You can take the paper back for review today. Li Mo got up and paid the money, I still have something to do, so I won't say more.

Li Mo left the cafe, only Wei Xiaonian was left holding the paper in a daze, he couldn't believe what happened just now was real. Li Mo actually handed over the paper that proved the conjecture of world-class difficulty to their magazine for publication.

Happiness came too suddenly, let's hand over the paper to the editor-in-chief as soon as possible. Only then did he remember that Li Mo paid for the coffee just now. This Li Mo is too much a friend.

On the way back to the magazine office, Wei Xiaonian drove the car, looking at the papers on the passenger seat from time to time.

Mathematics Monthly magazine, editor-in-chief

Editor-in-chief Wang looked at the sample of the next issue of the magazine, and unconsciously scratched the few hairs on the top of his head. The thinning hair on the top of his head was expected to be sacrificed after dozens of such scratches.

He felt that he was too difficult, and the level of these papers was too low.

He is a person with ideals and ambitions. Since he took over the position of editor-in-chief two years ago, he has made great reforms in the magazine. Streamline the staff and greatly increase the author's remuneration. The status of Mathematics Monthly in the domestic academic circle is also increasing day by day, but the level of papers submitted to the journal has plummeted recently.

Without raw materials, no matter how good a chef is, he can't cook a good meal. Should we tell readers that the monthly magazine will be closed for two months due to poor manuscripts recently? He shook his head with a wry smile.

Do you want to apply to foreign magazines for reprinting a few articles? Another thought popped up in the editor-in-chief Wang's mind, but this idea was quickly cut off by him, No, you have to endure their harsh conditions to apply for reprinting. , in the reader's impression, it will be a lower grade.

Just as he was worrying about the manuscript, the door of the editor-in-chief's office was pushed open with a bang.

Who is so bold, didn't they tell them to love the public property of the magazine, and if they open the door like this, it won't take long for them to pay an extra fee for repairing the door.

Editor-in-Chief Wang was about to vent all his depression this morning to the visitor.

Editor-in-Chief, Li Mo has submitted the manuscript. He saw Wei Xiaonian waving a manuscript and shouted excitedly.

Li Mo? Editor-in-Chief Wang remembered that he was the young genius who discovered Mo Xing, and he and Wei Xiaonian were said to be brothers. However, Mathematics Monthly Card is a mathematics magazine, and it is normal for Li Mo to contribute.

It seems that Wei Xiaonian is so excited, young people lack stability after all.

Thinking of this, he asked lightly: Have you reviewed it? For Wei Xiaonian, the pillar of the magazine, he could only suppress his anger for the time being.

I don't understand! Wei Xiaonian didn't show a trace of shame on his face.

It shouldn't be, Wei Xiaonian's business level has skyrocketed now, and general papers can no longer trouble him.

Editor-in-chief Wang took the manuscript in his hand, On: Odd Perfect Conjecture in doubt.

This. He stood up from his chair at once. As an old editor who has been immersed in the field of mathematics for decades, he naturally knows what the odd perfect conjecture is.

Li Mo proved this question?

And publish it in our Mathematical Monthly?

He fixed his eyes on Wei Xiaonian, for fear that Wei Xiaonian would say no.

Living up to expectations, Wei Xiaonian nodded with a flushed face.

A proof paper on unsolved mathematical problems comparable to Goldbach's conjecture is ready to be published in our journal. Editor-in-Chief Wang raised the odd-number perfect conjecture to the height of Goldbach's conjecture at once.

This shows that the Mathematics Monthly ranks among the world's first-class, and it is just around the corner.

This Li Mo is really discerning. Editor-in-Chief Wang made the final conclusion, and he is now deeply proud of Mathematics Monthly. It seems that it is already a world-class academic journal now.

Wei Xiaonian looked at Editor-in-Chief Wang in surprise, and Editor-in-Chief Wang raised Mathematics Monthly to a new level in no time. He realized that he still underestimated this ugly and stubborn old man.

Do we need to review the content of the manuscript first? Wei Xiaonian reminded from the side. Although he is very sure that there will be no mistakes in the thesis written by Li Mo, academics pay attention to rigor.

Editor-in-Chief Wang smiled and flipped through the paper: Yes, I'll review it first.

After turning a few pages, he found that he couldn't understand it either.

Wei Xiaonian saw the serious expression on Editor-in-Chief Wang's face, and hurriedly asked, Did you find a mistake?

Editor-in-Chief Wang sighed, closed the paper lightly, and said helplessly, I don't understand either.

Wei Xiaonian: .

Someone sent a table of delicacies from mountains and seas, but I actually lack chopsticks, what is this called?

At this time, Wei Xiaonian turned his head and thought of something, he leaned over and said, I have a way!

Editor-in-Chief Wang excitedly asked: What way?

We can learn from foreign magazines' approach to such super-difficult papers, set up a review committee, and invite well-known scholars at home and abroad to conduct collective review. Wei Xiaonian has many friends who work in foreign magazines, and the operating model is, Familiar.

That's right, we can send out an invitation letter. I believe that few mathematicians will refuse the charm of a perfect conjecture with odd numbers. Editor-in-Chief Wang reasoned by analogy, In this way, several mathematicians with international status will participate in the academic seminar.

This is the first international mathematics conference hosted by our Mathematics Monthly.

Editor-in-chief Wang was immersed in his own plan, and Wei Xiaonian next to him was dumbfounded: The editor-in-chief is going to play big!
