It was a summer night, with a bright moon hanging in the sky, and the cicadas chirping at night were still noisy and enthusiastic.
Because it is close to the sea, there is a gentle and pleasant wind blowing by.
Perhaps it was almost a summer vacation after studying, so Li Mu took a rare half-day to sit on the bench at Siyuan Lake on campus and relax.
Of course, when he accidentally took out his mobile phone and saw that he had received such an email in his email box, he was even more surprised.
Finally!
The article submitted to the "Annals of Mathematics" has been drafted!
"My nineteen years of ups and downs and hard work are really not in vain."
Li Mu sighed with emotion.
Plus a little help from your mind’s computer…
Ahem.
It's not enough for outsiders.
Although he has submitted many papers to Area 1 before, he is still very happy to be able to publish a paper in the "Annals of Mathematics".
After all, this is the top journal in mathematics.
Although the top issue also belongs to the first area, the first area does not belong to the top issue.
Reaching the top journal can be regarded as an academic advancement.
But now he is still a young man after all, so he is naturally happy.
I just thought about it, who can I share this happiness with?
It seems there isn’t either?
Finally, I took out my phone, took a picture of the lake view in front of me, then posted it on Weibo, paired it with the photo, and posted a message on it.
【Who are you having fun with? I am the bright moon and the clear breeze.】
Anyway, basically no one knows that this account is his.
But at this moment, a person suddenly jumped out next to him.
"Hey!"
Li Mu was startled, and when he took a closer look, it was Yun Rongshang.
"Little brother, why are you here alone? Are you in love with the scene?"
Yun Rongshang asked with a smile, and then also sat down.
Li Mu looked surprised, "Senior Da Ling? Did you go back to school early?"
Yun Rongshang went home for the summer vacation, but there were still about ten days before school started, so it was quite unexpected to see her suddenly.
Yun Rongshang exploded again: "Senior is my senior, don't call me 'older' anymore!"
Then she hummed and replied: "I stayed at home for too long, and my mother disliked me, so I simply came back early. It just so happened that the library started to lack people, so I will come back."
Hearing Yun Rongshang's words, Li Mu couldn't help but ask the question he had always wanted to ask: "Your aunt is so rich, but you still insist on working as a study student in the library?"
Yun Rongshang rolled her eyes: "My aunt's family's money is not my family's money, so why don't I go to work-study school by myself? I just want to earn pocket money."
"And I didn't like going to the library very much before, so in order to force me to go to the library to study, I applied for this position. Anyway, this job only involves cleaning up when the library is closed every day. The rest of the time is my own, and I don't have any
The only other thing I can do is read."
Li Mu: "...As expected of you."
"Okay, it's time to talk about you. When I came over just now, I saw someone sitting here having fun. When I got closer, I realized it was you. What were you looking at just now?"
"Uh... I'll scare you if I say it."
Li Mu cleared his throat.
Yun Rongshang was even more curious: "What do you mean? How can you scare me?"
"I passed Annual Mathematics!"
Li Mu said calmly.
Yun Rongshang nodded and said, "Well, what next?"
Li Mu: "...I am the one who passed the "Annual Review of Mathematics"!"
Yun Rongshang hesitated for a second, and then realized that this was what happened.
Then she quickly clapped her hands and exclaimed: "Wow! That's awesome!"
Li Mu: "..."
You can be more perfunctory.
Yun Rongshang also realized that her acting skills were a little too obvious. She chuckled and asked in a low voice: "So what happened to "Annual Review of Mathematics"? Is it very good?"
Li Mu was helpless. Well, he was playing the piano to a cow. He studied finance and didn't understand the top journals in the mathematics world.
"Just think of it as the Journal of Finance in the financial world."
Hearing this sentence, Yun Rongshang immediately understood.
"Annals of Mathematics" is probably the top journal in the field of mathematics.
Yun Rongshang's eyes widened, "You actually published the top issue? So awesome?!"
Li Mu felt at ease now. He nodded reservedly and said, "It's generally good. It's generally good. In the "Annals of Mathematics", on average, there are twenty or thirty articles published in it every year."
Yun Rongshang rolled her eyes, how could it be so Versailles?
Only twenty or thirty articles are published in the top journal every year, which is enough to show that none of the papers that can be published in this journal are simple.
Well, it's the kind she can't understand.
She sincerely praised from the bottom of her heart: "You are worthy of being my junior!"
Well, it's the IQ that she can only look up to.
Li Mu smiled calmly, but he was actually not very satisfied in his heart.
Because after all, this article was obtained by relying on the brain computer to extract the underlying operating program of the universe.
So in terms of rigor, this thing was not created by himself.
After that, you must rely on yourself to come up with a paper that can be published in the top journals!
Yun Rongshang probably didn't expect that the person next to her was still dissatisfied and wanted to write another article, but she mentioned another thing.
"By the way, do you know what my aunt is doing recently?"
Li Mu came back to his senses and said, "She seems to have been in Beijing for a meeting."
"Yeah, I remember, it seemed like it was for the article you and she finished?"
Li Mu nodded slightly, "Yes."
Although Sun Ziping did not tell him what happened during the meeting, it is probably conceivable that Professor Sun must have been under a lot of pressure.
It's just that he can't feel it here.
Yun Rongshang nodded slightly.
In fact, she didn't know much, at least not as good as Li Mu, so she just sighed: "I, from the business school, are still thinking about my graduation thesis, but you, from the physics school, have already started to make suggestions for our country's economic policy.
Already."
There is really a sense of difference between people.
Li Mu shook his head with a smile, and then said: "You can do it in the future too."
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
Yun Rongshang chuckled, leaning on the bench by the lake, no longer talking, and enjoying the summer night with peace of mind.
…
Time flies like light.
It was September, and it was still hot.
At the beginning of the school season, all major colleges and universities have started their semesters one after another, and students have returned to school.
The same is true for Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
However, across the vast Pacific Ocean, the editorial office of the Annals of Mathematics in Princeton sent the second issue of their journal, Volume 190, and also provided a link to the electronic version on the official website.
The paper ranked first among them is "For every multiple of 4 n=4k, k is a natural number, there is a Hadamard matrix of order n".
There is only one name in the author column, LiMu.
