Lan Shan returned to the dormitory at night, and after having dinner with Bai Zhouyi, he handed him the ticket.

"Did you buy the ticket?" Bai Zhouyi was a little surprised when he recalled the teams inside and outside the third floor.

"The ticket given by Wu Sicheng." Lan Shan said.

Bai Zhou raised his eyes suddenly, but didn't speak.

"Wu Sicheng." Lan Shan said affirmatively, "It's the Wu Sicheng you know, the relative ticket he gave."

Bai Zhou paused for a while, as if he was thinking about why Wu Sicheng was in Beijing and why he could get a ticket. Finally, he figured it out and said, "Congratulations."

Lan Shan smiled: "He said the same thing as me."

The dance drama was on Monday night. Fortunately, Bai Zhou didn’t have the show that night. He and Lan Shan went to the theater to watch the performance. Liao Linger was still as beautiful as ever, but compared to the 14-year-old girl who was a bit bluffing, Taiwan’s The dancers on the stage are obviously more calm, elegant and mature.

This is Lan Shan's emotion, and Bai Zhouyi commented: "You are about the same when you were 14 years old."

Added: "There is no difference between being three years old and now."

Lan Shan choked for a moment, only thinking that he boasted that he was young.

The holidays are always faster than usual, and Blue Mountain will return to France in a blink of an eye.He didn't let Bai Zhou go to the airport to see him off, and the two said goodbye at the door of the dormitory.

"You don't wish me a smooth journey, do you?" Lan Shan smiled, "Don't be so stern, how many times have we been separated."

"The plane can't go downwind." Bai Zhouyi said.

"I know."

Lan Shan stroked the trolley of the suitcase for a while, and said, "I'm going back this time. If my ankle recovers well, I may go to the new red dot route."

Bai Zhouyi said, "Be careful."

"Yes." Blue Mountain said, "If the route is red-dotted over there and the coach says it needs a French name, what do you think of LUNDI (Monday)?"

He blinked slightly at Bai Zhouyi, as if proud of himself: "Some homonyms."

Bai Zhou nodded: "Sounds good."

Lan Shan laughed again, patted Bai Zhouyi on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go."

Lanshan returned to Paris. After the follow-up consultation, there was good news. His ankle recovered well and he could withstand strength training.

"If I'm lucky and the rock climbing team finds a suitable rock wall, I can red-point a route before next year's World Championships." Lan Shan said happily to Bai Zhouyi on the phone.

Bai Zhouyi was happy for him and said, "That's good."

Lan Shan asked again: "You, what kind of conjecture, went to the mathematics forum, how is it going?"

"Still studying relevant research materials." Bai Zhouyi said, "Group research will start soon."

Although it was confirmed in the past few days to join the topic of Riemann's conjecture, Professor Huang has not allowed Bai Zhouyi to participate in the research, saying that there are other procedures to go, and let him look at the materials first.As soon as Bai Zhou responded, Riemann's conjecture is worthy of being a treasure in the mathematics world. The relevant information is piled up like a mountain, and it is indeed not something that can be read in a day or two.

Half a month later, when Bai Zhou almost filled his notebook with thoughts, he was finally accepted into Professor Huang's research group.When Bai Zhouyi participated in the group seminar for the first time, Professor Huang introduced him into the meeting room, clapped his hands and said: "Welcome Bai Zhouyi to join the research group."

There were four or five people sitting in the room, some of them were well-known, and some were still students. As soon as Bai Zhou had never seen them before, he nodded his head and said hello, and they also nodded to Bai Zhou, and then turned their eyes back to the room On the front of the small board.

As soon as Bai Zhou sat down in the empty seat in the front row, Professor Huang patted him on the shoulder and said, "If you have any thoughts, just say it directly, it's not such a serious occasion."

Even so, none of the people in the room looked relaxed. They all had sullen faces, as if they were standing on a cliff.

The research team is indeed standing on the edge of a precipice.

After many discussions and long-term inferences, the multi-faceted approach did not give the research team a subtle solution to the problem. The Riemann conjecture is still like a dome that cannot be captured, overlooking the challengers struggling to climb up on the ground.

It is mysterious and inviolable. The research team has been defeated repeatedly, and finally can only stand there in a daze, helpless in despair.

It's not that they are not smart enough or hard enough. How can something that thousands of mathematicians have tried and failed be conquered overnight.

The International Mathematical Forum is not so strict that it only gives a few months to deduce conjectures. They still have room to work hard, but before that, they need to fill in the list of people who will participate in the International Mathematical Forum.

The list is divided into a master byline, and other researchers.

In the past, being on the list was honor and opportunity, but now, unsolvable problems are overwhelmed, and opportunities have become puddles. If you step into it, you will be splashed with mud.

Regardless of dissuasion, Professor Huang filled in his own name in the main signature, but when he handed in the list, he was called back, saying that the format has changed this year, and a sub-signature should be added after the main signature.

Professor Huang was stunned, and then fought for it, trying to remove the subsignature.However, the rules cannot be changed. After receiving the official rebuttal from the International Mathematical Association, Professor Huang had no choice but to summon the members of the research team and explain the temporary situation.

After he finished explaining, there was no sound in the conference room.The appearance of the subsignature put another big stone on the research team's already shaky psychological expectations.The researchers in the group, whether they were forced into the group or joined voluntarily, tried their best to solve the puzzle. However, the Riemann conjecture was too unattainable. After thinking hard to the end, the result of hard work was only A sigh.Under such powerlessness, who is willing to come out and take the blame for disasters beyond their power.

Professor Huang looked around the conference room, eyes drooping everywhere he looked, he could only sigh, he understands that people are selfish by nature.

"Professor." Just as Professor Huang was about to be ruthless and decide to sign by voting, a voice sounded.Everyone was stunned. After hearing the sound, Bai Zhouyi calmly raised his hand and said, "If I am qualified, I hope to participate more in the research as a deputy signer of the research."

"You..." Before Professor Huang could react, someone called out quickly and said flatly, "No, you are too young, you have no experience at all..."

"No one has experience." Bai Zhou said flatly, "Before unproved conjectures, everyone is equal."

He mentioned the unprovable conjecture, and no one spoke.

Professor Huang also wanted to dissuade: "Maybe there is someone more suitable than you."

But he scanned the room again, and the people who were watching still bowed their heads in shame.

Maybe there are more suitable ones, but Bai Zhouyi was the only one who volunteered.

Professor Huang looked back, Bai Zhouyi still raised his hand, and said calmly: "Professor, write my name."

Before the meeting adjourned, Bai Zhouyi stopped Professor Huang again and said:

He added: "In the past few days, I have sorted out an idea based on domestic and foreign papers. Because it is roughly written, it is not perfect. If you don't mind, professor..."

"I don't mind." Professor Huang said hastily, "We are now in need of brainstorming, any new ideas are worth discussing, you can send a public email later, I will let Xiao Li take a look first."

Bai Zhouyi said, "Okay, thank you professor."

As soon as the news that Bai Zhou voluntarily applied for the proof of Riemann's conjecture spread like wildfire, he had just left the meeting room in the morning when Li Longying rushed up and stopped him.

"Did you apply for the co-signature of the Riemann Hypothesis research report?"

"Correct."

"You're crazy!" Li Longying was dumbfounded, he was really anxious, "You can't prove something, something that's clearly a blame, something that others can't avoid, you actually went directly to it."

Bai Zhouyi didn't change his expression: "I want to try."

"Can you try it? So many mathematicians have tried it one after another, can you be better than them?" Li Longying asked.

Bai Zhouyi said, "I have some ideas."

Li Longying was about to die of his anger. He said angrily, "Do you think those mathematicians who failed are idiots and have no ideas?"

Bai Zhou didn't speak anymore.

Li Longying breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he was friends with Bai Zhouyi, and he couldn't just watch him jump into the fire pit. He took a step forward and whispered: "Now go tell the professor that you regret it, and the professor won't embarrass you. This thing really cannot be solved by the bravery of a man."

Bai Zhouyi looked calm and said, "Forget it, it's been reported."

Li Longying gritted his teeth: "You really..."

He wanted to say something more, but seeing Bai Zhou's calm expression, he knew that it would be impossible to persuade this big brother any more, and his helplessness could only be turned into a long sigh.

In the evening, Bai Zhouyi made a video call to Lan Shan as usual to inform him.

"I was added to the study as a byline today."

"Li... Riemann guessed that?" It was rare for Lan Shan to remember.

"Ah."

"Wow, have you been chosen?"

"Actually, no one is willing to go, I asked for it."

"Why, isn't this a good opportunity?"

"The topic selection is too difficult, conjectures cannot be proved, and the probability of failure is too high. No one wants to take risks."

"So this is a back-up position."

"Ah."

Lan Shan paused for a while and said, "If it is proved, it should be a very face-saving matter."

When Bai Zhou looked at Lan Shan's expectant eyes on the screen, he felt a little funny. Others advised him not to take the blame, or used sympathetic and tragic eyes to give him the baptism of attention that a dead man deserves. I began to imagine the wonderful life after the conjecture was proved.

He has more confidence in Bai Zhouyi than Bai Zhouyi, and feels that as long as Bai Zhouyi wants to do it, nothing is impossible.

But Lan Shan's relaxed tone really dispelled the anxiety hidden in Bai Zhouyi's heart, he bent his mouth unconsciously and said, "Yes."

"Will you be called a genius or a mathematician or something?" Blue Mountain asked enthusiastically.

"Yes."

Lan Shan smiled, and he said: "Genius, mathematician, boyfriend, do you want to make a bet?"

Bai Zhouyi also smiled briefly, and asked, "What are you betting on?"

"Do you want to gamble, you are the first to prove the Riemann conjecture, the above line."
