Chapter 197: Must Go

Translator: Translated Henyee Editor:Translated Henyee


On the afternoon of the same day, in the mathematical research laboratory at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Professor Xiang Huanan sat quietly.


With reading glasses on, he read [Annual Mathematics]. He had a pen in his hand, and every once in a while, he would write on paper.


Learning means growing, especially in mathematical research.


He doesn't want to miss out, so he'll read every new edition of Annual Mathematics.


Suddenly, an unexpected guest visited his office.


The guest smiled and shouted, "Old man, what are you doing?"


When Professor Xiang Huanan raised his head, he saw Professor Wang Yuping walking into his office. He then took off his reading glasses and said with a smile, "Hey."


He looked at the student next to his desk and said, "Xiao Li, give Professor Wang some tea."


"Good!"


Xiao Li put down his pen and respectfully poured tea for the two old professors.


It wasn't Professor Wang Yuping's first visit, so he casually picked up a cup and sat down on the sofa.


Professor Xiang Huanan was still flipping through the journal as he chatted with his old friend, "Why aren't you at the math conference? What are you doing here?"


“They didn't give me a gift, so why should I go? I'd rather come here to your cool office, "said Professor Wang Yuping. He smiled and said, “But I heard that this conference is interesting. The opening ceremony of the morning was presented by Qiu Chengtong. He gave the Shiing-Shen Chern Mathematics Award to about twenty years old. The rumor was that this award belonged to Ma Changan, but it seemed that he had already failed. ”


This was big news for old Xiang.


However, Professor Xiang was not surprised by who won. Instead, Xiang Huanan was shocked when he saw his friend and asked, "That Wang Shicheng person is really submissive to Qiu Chengtong?"


Because of a professor named Tian, Professor Qiu was unhappy with the mathematics department at Yan University.


In 2001, Yan University invited an MIT professor to become an academic.Professor Qiu Chengtong was unhappy about it and he said to the press, "I'm a person who deserves to be an academic."


The incident exploded in the country, but in the end it ended in a simple way.


However, Professor Qiu Chengtong and Yan University never solved their problems. Professor Qiu Chengtong was eventually transferred to Shuimu University due to this incident.


However, not everyone is obsessed with factions, and not everyone is passionate about power.


Especially the old professors who had already made a name for themselves. Their own names are considered academic capital. They are not obsessive and easy to get along with.


Professor Wang Yuping, for example, is one of those professors who does not care about fame or fortune. He was just an old professor who was very passionate about education.


Professor Wang Yuping sipped some tea before saying, “He should bend down. If Ma Changan won the Shiing-Shen Chern Mathematics Award, it would be a shame. ”


"Are you sure?" Ask Professor Xiang Huanan.


"of course. Why do you think Old Qiu is back? He came back just so he could tell Academician Wang Shicheng that the Federal Mathematics Society was considering giving Lu Zhou the Cole Prize. ”


Professor Xiang Huanan was stunned for a moment.He then smiled and said, “This is a bit serious. No wonder Academician Wang was unhappy. "


Not too bad if the winner does not deserve the prize.However, if the loser goes abroad and wins a bigger prize there, then it will be a problem.


The media will start gossiping and maybe even talking about conspiracy theories.


If a twenty-year-old were to defeat some academic, he would definitely deserve the Cole Prize, right?


But people are not that stupid.


After all, the weight of the Cole Prize was much heavier than the Shiing-Shen Chern Math Award.


“It looks like this conference is a little interesting. Wang Shicheng actually took the initiative to shake hands with Qiu Chengtong. Too bad I missed it, ” Professor Xiang said with a smile.


Professor Wang Yuping smiled and said, "It's interesting. I plan to go there tomorrow to check it out. I heard that the boy had a 30-minute report.It appears that when he researched Polignac's conjecture, he discovered several methods of group structure. I read his thesis, and it looks interesting. His report skill level was high, so it was a pity to miss it. ”


“The skill level of the child is high.I can say that from oral defense, ” Professor Xiang Huanan said with a smile. He added, "Honey Lu Shenjian stole it. Otherwise, I will be the one to guide him to the award. "


"Don't say that. It still pisses me off, ” Professor Wang Yuping said as he slapped his thigh. He said, “That guy Lu was a physicist, and he stole one of our mathematicians. How dare he! "


Professor Xiang Huanan smiled and said, "Well, why don't you go tell Old Lu to his face?"


Professor Wang Yuping smiled and said, “That's it. I was worried I might give him a heart attack. "


Xiang Huanan smiled and shook his head as he turned the pages of the journal.


Suddenly, he froze.


He looked at the thesis from top to bottom again, and his face became more and more serious.When he read the last line, he stopped for a long time.


After a while, Professor Xiang Huanan suddenly asked, "The report ... What time is it now? Where's?"


Professor Wang Yuping sipped his tea as he casually replied, “Three afternoon's hour, Beijing Normal University. Wh why? Did you go? "


"I have to go ..." Xiang Huanan sighed and placed the Annual Mathematics journal on the table. He then said, "Look at yourself."
