Chapter 153: Acceptance Speech? Is this specially designed to attack people?
But Fu Chunjie was not the only one to see the trending news report.
Other mathematics scholars have also seen it, and they are very concerned about the content of mathematics. Some people even knew about Wang Hao's paper as soon as the new issue of "New Advances in Mathematics" was released.
Solving the NS direction approximation is not a particularly big research, but when it is published in four top journals, it immediately becomes extraordinary.
Fu Chunjie's research on approximate value solutions in the NS direction is also internationally recognized and widely used. He even gave a report at the International Congress of Mathematicians, but his research is also difficult to publish in the four top journals.
This is because Fu Chunjie’s research is only a little better than other similar research, but it is far from reaching the level of ‘cross-level’.
If we make a score, other good research in the same direction can be given 5 points, and Fu Chunjie's research can only be given 6 points. There are many similar types of research in the world, and there may be 7-point standards. Each score is
They are not high because they are not innovative and their application coverage is limited.
If this type of research can be published in the four top mathematics journals, it means that it must be innovative or have a very wide range of applications. No matter which point it is, it is shocking. To give a score, it must start with 10 points.
While Fu Chunjie was digesting the information that "I am not the main character in the hot search" and "I will definitely not be awarded the prize", several mathematics professors from Capital University walked into the hotel together.
The leading professor Zhang Chenping recognized Liu Yuqun and immediately came over with a smile to say hello and helped introduce several other young scholars.
"This is Academician Liu Yuqun, and this is Professor Fu Chunjie from Sudong University."
"Professor Fu has the opportunity to be awarded the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Prize this time!"
"Let's all get to know each other."
"Academician Liu, Professor Fu, sit down, sit down, we're going to check in first."
"Okay~~"
A few people were polite and went to the front desk to check in.
Fu Chunjie stood up and was polite, but the fake smile on his face immediately went away. He really couldn't laugh anymore.
Liu Yuqun looked at it, shook his head, and comforted, "Don't think about that award. If you don't get it, you won't get it. When you get to my age, you will feel that everything doesn't matter."
Fu Chunjie secretly said, "You are already an academician, so of course you say so." He was still a little unwilling, but he also knew that there was no other way.
At this time, two more people walked into the door, one old and one young. The old one looked a little unfamiliar.
young……
"Wang Hao!" Fu Chunjie recognized him immediately.
Wang Hao is his biggest competitor. He has noticed Wang Hao's photos many times, and every time he feels that he is really young. Now he can recognize him clearly when he sees them.
A group of people from Capital University at the front desk also noticed Wang Hao in advance, but did not dare to recognize him for a while because Wang Hao was too young. Even though he had seen him in the news, he had never seen him in person.
Now when Fu Chunjie shouted, several people from Capital University passed over first, "Professor Wang Hao?"
"It's really you, Professor Wang. I've seen so much news about you that I didn't dare to recognize you for a while."
"Congratulations, you published your results in "New Advances in Mathematics". That must be an amazing paper, right?"
"The "New Advances in Mathematics" I ordered has not arrived yet. I am really looking forward to it..."
Someone also introduced them one by one, and Wang Hao shook hands with them one by one.
Several of them are young professors from Capital University.
It is not easy for young professors to become famous, but Capital University is extraordinary. There are two young professors whose names even Wang Hao has heard of and even read their papers.
At this time, the most embarrassing person was Luan Haiping. He walked in with Wang Hao, and saw a group of people greeting Wang Hao. He was left aside and ignored.
He could only pace back and forth awkwardly.
Fortunately, Zhang Chenping from Capital University had eyes. He glanced at Luan Haiping, but without directly recognizing him, he asked Wang Hao, "Professor Wang, who is this...?"
Wang Hao introduced, "It's Professor Luan Haiping, the dean of the School of Science at Xihai University."
"It turns out to be Professor Luan. Thank you for meeting Xin! I have admired you for a long time!"
"I have heard of Professor Luan for a long time, but I have never seen him before. I'm really sorry for neglecting him."
Luan Haiping shook hands with the other person with a stiff expression, and then noticed that several other young professors were talking on the other side and ignored him at all. He suddenly felt a kind of loneliness of being "ignored".
Nice to meet you?
Long admired?
I believe you as a ghost!
far away.
Fu Chunjie didn't take the initiative to go over and get to know each other. He couldn't save his face and went there again. Academician Liu Yuqun was sitting next to him. According to etiquette, he should have come over.
Wang Hao and Luan Haiping didn't pay attention at all.
They exchanged pleasantries with a few people from Capital University, then checked in and went to their rooms.
Watching Wang Hao's leaving figure, Fu Chunjie felt very complicated.
The candidates for various awards of the Mathematical Society must have been selected now, and even if he is selected, it is very likely that there will be temporary changes.
This is also the reason why it is impossible for him to win the award.
Before the award is announced, no one knows the specific winner, but before the award is announced, the winner is not certain.
For example, if the Mathematical Society votes internally to determine a winner, and problems arise during the process, the meeting may be temporarily reconvened to re-vote.
Now that Wang Hao has completed the approximate solution of NS equations, and has been published in "New Advances in Mathematics", one of the four top journals, and has even become a hot search for "out of the circle", he is not at the same level as him at all.
.
If Wang Hao failed to win the award, he would definitely be questioned by the public.
Fu Chunjie's resume and achievements will be put in front of the public eye, and it will be found that even his greatest achievements have been suppressed by Wang Hao.
When the time comes, what should I say?
The Mathematics Association will also be implicated and questioned.
For the sake of the society's reputation, the Mathematical Society would not allow him to win any more awards. Even if it designated him as the winner, it would hold an impromptu meeting to re-vote.
…
Fu Chunjie is still very "public opinion minded".
Several people from the internal committee of the Mathematical Society were talking about this, "Fortunately Fu Chunjie was not elected at that time!"
"If I had voted for him at that time, I would probably have to vote for him now. Then I would be in trouble."
"It is simply impossible for Fu Chunjie. In previous years, he would have had a chance, but this year, with Zhong Mingchu and Wang Hao, even his biggest achievements have been suppressed by Wang Hao. It would be a joke if he were rated."
"There were a few people from Fu Chunjie voting at that time. I don't know what they were thinking. To put it bluntly, were they accepting gifts?"
"Still rotating committee members and directors? What are these things? What the hell!"
They discussed it for a few words and then started talking about tomorrow's meeting.
This annual mathematics conference is different from the past and must be paid more attention to because there will be many people attending.
Many top domestic mathematicians will come to participate.
For example, Qiu Chengwen from Shuimu University, as well as another Fields winner Kaucher Birkar, the Academy of Sciences will also send a team from the Institute of Mathematics to participate, and several old academicians who did not participate in the last session have also decided to come.
There were even applications from some foreign mathematicians, but they were still declined later.
One reason is that the annual meeting of the Domestic Mathematical Society is a purely domestic mathematics conference and does not have an "international channel". Foreign scholars working in China can participate, but there is no need for other foreign scholars.
In addition, most of the meetings were reported in Chinese, and foreign scholars could not understand them at all.
There are so many top figures in the field of mathematics who want to attend, not because of the attractiveness of the domestic mathematics conference, but because Wang Hao is determined to give a report on the method of proving the Kakutani conjecture at the conference.
The international mathematics community pays great attention to this mathematical method.
It's a pity that Wang Hao is planning to publish it in Chinese at the domestic mathematics society, and they can only watch the translated version of the video later.
There are always differences between the translated version and the original version.
The Mathematical Society will definitely welcome the publication of such top-notch papers, which can greatly enhance the Mathematical Society's international influence.
But at the same time, they are also facing a lot of pressure. With so many top scholars coming, it is not easy to do a good job.
…
The next day is the annual meeting of the Mathematical Society.
The meeting was held in a conference center in Jincheng. The main lecture hall was large enough to accommodate thousands of people.
More than a thousand people came to attend this meeting, which was already the largest number of attendees in history.
Wang Hao and Luan Haiping arrived at the main venue early and saw many people after entering.
Some people knew me, some didn't, but most of them came over to shake hands, and later I met several old academicians of mathematics, as well as a group of people from the Academy of Sciences.
Wang Hao is a mathematician who was invited to give a report, and he is very famous in China. His seat is on the left side of the middle of the second row. In front of it are the judges, committee members, and supervisors' seats. Next to him is Kaucher -
Birkar, and further to the left is Qiu Chengwen, as well as a very famous academician from Capital University.
Each seat had a name on it. When Wang Hao came, it was still empty. Not long after, he saw a group of people from Shuimu University coming over.
Wang Hao greeted Qiu Chengwen and shook hands.
Qiu Chengwen is over seventy years old, with gray hair. He looks a bit old but very energetic. He said with a smile on his face, "We were still talking about you on the way here. Congratulations on completing the approximate solution of the NS equation."
Research."
"It is absolutely extraordinary that this research can be published in "New Advances in Mathematics". I am looking forward to it."
"Let me ask you, is there an innovative method or is it widely used?"
Wang Hao thought for a while and said, "All of them, right? I used a method of transforming equations, replacing the original equation with an equation that can be solved accurately."
"Most of the content is to prove the approximation of the substituted equation to the solution of the original equation."
Qiu Chengwen almost understood the idea after listening to it, "This is a very good method, but it is very difficult."
Wang Hao said indifferently, "It's just a small research."
He wouldn't have said this to anyone else, but he was facing Qiu Chengwen, and next to him was Bill Carr. Two Fields winners were face to face. To say it was a small study was not an exaggeration at all.
really.
Qiu Chengwen nodded in agreement, "I'm here specifically for your big research this time."
Birkar suddenly said, "I also want to know your method, but my Chinese is not very good, and I don't know if I can understand it."
Wang Hao smiled and said, "From what you said, there shouldn't be any problems."
Bill Carr immediately smiled and said, "Thank you!"
He has been working hard to learn Chinese and is somewhat proud of his progress. Wang Hao's words spoke to his heart.
The three of them talked very calmly.
The people listening next to me felt very sad. It must be a very amazing research for the approximate solution of NS equations to be published in the four top mathematics journals.
Either there are new methods, or their applications will be very wide.
Wang Hao simply said that it was both aspects, and also said it was just a small study? On other occasions, they would definitely hold it in contempt and think that he was saying this on purpose.
Qiu Chengwen approved it, and so did Bill Carr.
Obviously both of them thought it was just a small research, and they also looked forward to Wang Hao's big research.
This scene made them feel as if they were living in a different dimension from the three people they were talking to.
Fu Chunjie's seat was also very forward, and he was also sitting in the second row. He happened to come over and listen a few times. The approximate solution of NS equations in "New Advances in Mathematics" was just a small study?
So I have been studying mathematics for decades, and my biggest achievement is not even as good as a small study?
This is too hurtful!
…
The opening ceremony of the annual meeting of the Mathematical Society is the award ceremony.
When the time reached nine o'clock, everyone had already sat down and the venue was quiet and waiting.
The first person to take the stage was Hu Zhengang, the chairman of the Mathematical Society and an academician of the Academy of Sciences. He took the stage and gave an opening speech for ten minutes.
The second person to take the stage was Zhao Bo, deputy secretary of the Education Working Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, who gave a speech on behalf of the government officials, and he spoke for about ten minutes.
Next on the stage were the president of Jincheng University, the vice chairman of the Science and Technology Association, and the director of the Department of Mathematics and Science of the Natural Science Foundation...
When Wang Hao was giving Zhao Bo's speech, he couldn't bear it any longer. His eyelids trembled as he sat in his seat, and then he simply lay down and fell asleep.
He didn't know how long he had slept before he felt a push on his arm and a strange tone came from his ear, "Wang Hao, Dr. Wang Hao!"
"What?"
Wang Hao opened his eyes drowsily, looked at Birkar who was pushing him, and heard a repeated shout from the stage, "...Professor Wang Hao from Xihai University!"
The series of speeches ended.
The mathematics conference has officially entered the opening ceremony stage, and the opening ceremony of the conference is also the award ceremony.
Vice-Council and Secretary-General Tao Yezhou announced the list of winners. Unlike some awards that create an atmosphere of suspense, Tao Yezhou read out all the winners in one breath.
The first announcement was the Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award, followed by the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award. The winners were Zhong Mingchu from Donggang University and Wang Hao from Xihai University.
Although only the name of the winner is announced, generally speaking, the person whose name is read will stand up and wave to others.
Wang Hao was reminded by Birkar and quickly stood up and waved to the side.
There were looks of understanding from all around.
Many top mathematicians are unwilling to attend this conference because the process is too formal and official. There are a lot of speeches at the beginning, and the same goes for the closing ceremony.
Even people who are used to it will listen to all kinds of speeches with the left ear and the right ear. It will be very good if they can persist in listening.
Seeing that Wang Hao seemed to be distracted just now, or maybe fell asleep, others could understand.
Many people want to sleep over, or simply not listen, but try to maintain their appearance.
Wang Hao became much more energetic.
Next, Tao Yezhou continued to announce the winners of the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, and then went directly to the award ceremony.
The first award was the Hua Luogeng Mathematics Prize.
This is the most important award in domestic mathematics, but because it is aimed at mathematicians over 50 years old, it also has some lifelong affirmation. Many winners are already academicians in mathematics.
This time there is also a mathematician who won the award, and another professor is already a first-level professor.
After a simple award presentation, the two men gave their acceptance speeches respectively.
The next one is the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Prize.
Zhong Mingchu and Wang Hao walked to the stage together.
This is not the first time they have met.
Wang Hao has met Zhong Mingchu, but Zhong Mingchu is already very famous and is the director of the Department of Mathematics at Donggang University. He will definitely not remember a young doctoral student like Wang Hao.
Now on the podium of the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award, Zhong Mingchu saw Wang Hao again, but it was not a matter of knowing him or not. His mood was very complicated.
It turned out that a little doctoral student, whose name he even forgot after hearing it once, was standing on the same podium with him.
It has been 25 years since he graduated with a Ph.D., and it took him 25 years to be able to stand here and accept the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award.
What about the other party?
One and a half years? No more than two years at most.
Zhong Mingchu was filled with emotion.
A professor who was invited to award awards came to the stage to award awards to two people respectively. The podium mainly contained certificates and medals, and also included a bonus of 100,000 yuan.
Zhong Mingchu held the certificate in his hand and the medal on his chest, and he felt a little excited when he came off the stage.
This cannot be said to be the highest moment of his life, but he knows that it will be difficult for him to win higher awards.
Because, age.
As he got closer to the age of 50, he found that his energy and mind were declining, and his innovative thinking was becoming increasingly lacking, making it difficult to accept new things.
In the future, if I think about any major achievements in mathematical theory, I cannot say that it is completely impossible, but the chance is very slim.
However, standing on the stage to receive the award, Zhong Mingchu still felt a little excited. He calmed down and gave his acceptance speech.
That is the content that has been sorted out several times, "Thank you to the Mathematical Society, thank you to my teacher Mr. Wang Mingxuan, thank you to all the math colleagues here..."
"I feel very excited now because I am very lucky to receive this award. Mr. Chen Shengshen is a great mathematician, and the awards named after him are very meaningful. This award makes me feel very heavy and has brought me
Sense of responsibility…”
"In the past twenty years, I have done some recognized mathematical research, and I think I have some experience. Some people say that compared with other academic research, mathematical research generally lacks collaboration, but I think
Communication among mathematicians is very important, and I have participated in many..."
"I used to focus on the research of the BSD conjecture, but later I found that the difficulty of this conjecture was much higher than expected. I had no results for six consecutive years, and then I got inspiration in the school library..."
"So I think the most important thing is persistence. Persistence is a very important quality. At the same time, communicating with other scholars can also bring about..."
"Chinese mathematics is now showing a trend of getting better and better. We have been catching up. I believe it will get better and better in the future!"
Zhong Mingchu finished his acceptance speech with excitement.
Next it was Wang Hao's turn.
Wang Hao was a little nervous. His feelings were completely different from Zhong Mingchu. He was not very excited about winning the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award. He even felt very dull in his heart. He just came to receive the award.
Because his research has long exceeded the selection requirements for this award, it feels like he is at the level of an International Olympiad champion. Winning a regional mathematics competition award does not seem to be a big deal.
The reason he is nervous now is because he did not prepare an acceptance speech in particular.
After listening to Zhong Mingchu's speech, he found that what the other party said was really good. After the microphone was handed over, Wang Hao thought about the 'logic' of Zhong Mingchu's speech and said directly, "Thank you to the Mathematical Society and my mentor Pan Weiguo.
As well as Professor Zhou Qingyuan, and all my colleagues in mathematics..."
"Now I feel very excited because I won this award. It brings a heavy feeling and makes me feel that I have a sense of responsibility and pressure..."
"In the past two years, I have done some recognized mathematical research, and I think I have some experience. I think communication between mathematicians is very important. I have participated in-"
Wang Hao suddenly stopped as he spoke. He thought carefully and realized that he had never attended a meeting that focused on a certain academic discussion, so he simply continued, "——That's why I came to attend this meeting."
"..."
"..."
Many people in the audience were stunned. You think it is important to communicate with scholars, so this is your first time to attend a meeting of the Mathematical Society?
The meetings of the Mathematical Society are just reporting meetings!
Wang Hao bit the bullet and continued to talk along the 'logical line of thought', "I used to focus on the research on the Kakutani conjecture. Later I found that the difficulty of this conjecture was higher than expected. I didn't make any breakthrough for two weeks in a row. Later, I gave
When students give lectures, they gain inspiration and find direction.”
"..."
"..."
Many people in the audience were even more stunned. There was no breakthrough for two consecutive weeks? Did you get inspiration while giving lectures to students?
Is this human speech?
Wang Hao continued, "So I think the most important thing is persistence. Persistence is a very important quality..."
"..."
"..."
Your insistence is only two weeks?
Many scholars in the audience didn't know what expressions to make. They felt that the young people on the stage were not giving a speech, but were specifically here to attack people.
beside.
Zhong Mingchu couldn't help but twitch his lips. He had already heard that the logic of Wang Hao's speech was completely copied from his.
First, thank you, and then talk about your own experience.
It doesn’t matter if I copy the speech, but when it comes to the ‘experience’ stage, why do I feel that something is wrong the more I listen to it?
