Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 349: Chen Zhou in the Middle
Unlike Chen Zhou's plan to stay at home for a long time, Yang Yiyi returned to Yanda after the end of the first month of the year.
Compared to Chen Zhou, he only had to worry about his thesis before graduation.
Yang Yiyi now has a lot more things to worry about.
Graduation thesis, offer application from MIT, visa application, etc.
Moreover, Yang Yiyi had to go back to Dean Yang to arrange a laboratory for her graduation project.
Although Yang Yiyi also learned from Chen Zhou and had the skill to flatten physics experiment papers.
However, compared to Chen Zhou's skill of using collections of wrong questions to flatten physics experiments on paper to the greatest extent possible, Yang Yiyi is still not very mature.
This is also the problem that Yang Yiyi discovered during her independent research.
Because, for physics experiment topics, direction is so important.
As for Yang Yiyi, who does not have a collection of wrong questions, it is really difficult to grasp the direction.
This requires experiments to determine the correct direction.
When Chen Zhou first learned that Yang Yiyi was going back to school, he planned to go back with her.
However, Yang Yiyi suggested that he could stay at home for a longer period of time.
After all, there is nothing to do if you go back to school so early.
Moreover, when she returns to school, she will spend most of her time in the laboratory in the early stage.
At that time, Chen Zhou would be the only one going to the library to hang out.
Instead of hanging out alone in the library under the gaze of my classmates from Yanda University, it would be better to spend more time comfortably at home.
Chen Zhou thought about it and it seemed to be true.
I will go back to school when I have almost finished the research on optimizing the design of particle accelerator diodes.
By then, I will have finished my graduation project in physics.
In the following time, we will focus on tackling the Jebov conjecture.
Every moment is just right.
So Chen Zhou happily listened to Yang Yiyi's advice.
However, what Chen Zhou was wondering was why this girl's tone changed after she heard that he would not go back to Yan University with her?
Chen Zhou didn't think much about it, and started discussing the topic with Yang Yiyi.
Yang Yiyi cursed inwardly helplessly, "Idiot !"
Chen Zhou stayed at home until mid-April before buying a high-speed rail ticket back to Yanda.
For nearly a month and a half, Chen Zhou hardly left the house except for taking a walk with Chen Jianguo and Zhang Hongying in the evening.
All his time and energy were devoted to the research on the Jebov conjecture and the optimal design of particle accelerator diodes.
Overall, there has been little progress in the research on the Jeboff conjecture.
Of course, this is only relative to Chen Zhou. If the research results of this period are taken to the outside, he can still publish two papers.
Moreover, Chen Zhou's research progress is definitely ahead of those who started studying the Jebov conjecture because of his four-line formula and distribution deconstruction method.
However, as long as the Djebov conjecture is not finally solved, Chen Zhou believes that he is still far away.
As for the research on the optimal design of particle accelerator diodes, it is proceeding step by step according to plan, and the overall research progress is in line with expectations.
If nothing goes wrong, this thing will definitely be solved earlier than the Jebov conjecture.
During this period, due to Chen Zhou's disappearance, many discussion posts inexplicably appeared on the Yanda campus network.
Everyone is asking, "Where is Chen Zhou?"
The answers given by those who replied to the thread were also varied.
Some people say that they are studying the Jebov conjecture and estimate that the results will be out soon.
Some people also said that Chen Zhou was attending a secret mathematics conference and was studying the Goldbach conjecture.
Some people even said that Chen Zhou went on vacation. In fact, the Jebov conjecture had been solved long ago, but he was just waiting to publish it after graduation.
This is what Chen Zhou saw when he accidentally opened the campus network on the high-speed train returning to Yanda.
Chen Zhou was still very touched that everyone was so concerned about his itinerary.
But Chen Zhou was a little amused and confused about everyone's random guesses.
Not to mention the Goldbach conjecture, Chen Zhou does have an idea, but the time is not right yet.
Let’s talk about the one who is on vacation at the back. Come on, why don’t you try the Jebov conjecture?
In addition, during the time that Chen Zhou was in seclusion at home, there were two people who communicated with him frequently.
One is Terence Tao, the blogging expert. Although he is not studying the Gerbov conjecture, he is using the distributional deconstruction method to study the twin prime conjecture.
He and Chen Zhou also discussed the twin prime conjecture and their experience in using the distribution deconstruction method.
Chen Zhou naturally responded positively to this, and the two people's discussion on academic issues gradually deepened as the emails accumulated.
However, what Chen Zhou did not expect was that another person also sent him an email.
That is another person who communicates frequently with Chen Zhou.
This person is none other than Professor Zhang Yitang.
He and Chen Zhou also have a tacit competitive relationship, which is the competition to prove the Jebov conjecture and the twin prime conjecture.
So, when Chen Zhou first received the email from Zhang Yitang, he was still a little surprised.
At least from what he knew, this old man was a very individual and very stubborn.
Generally speaking, he would not discuss the research problems of the twin prime conjecture with himself.
But the fact is, he sent an email with his research results.
Zhang Yitang has taken the proof of the twin prime conjecture a big step forward.
It can be said that only the final touch is left.
But the finishing touch could never be made.
This is also a problem faced by most researchers.
If you take this final step, a smooth road will be ahead.
If you fail to take this step, you will most likely be trapped in shackles and never be able to find a solution.
This may also be the reason why Zhang Yitang chose to communicate with Chen Zhou.
This is the conclusion Chen Zhou drew from the content of the email.
After all, when it comes to the mastery of distributed deconstruction, there is absolutely no one else in the world who has a better say than him.
Therefore, Chen Zhou discussed the research problem of the twin prime conjecture with two people at the same time.
This made Chen Zhou quite helpless. After all, only one person could ultimately solve the same problem.
But now, Terence Tao and Zhang Yitang are in competition, and he is caught in the middle.
So Chen Zhou made it clear that he intended to promote cooperation between Zhang Yitang and Tao Zhexuan.
I hope that the two of them can work together to solve the twin prime conjecture.
Tao is still very happy about this.
But Zhang Yitang seemed hesitant.
In any case, his latest published paper can be said to be in an absolute leading position.
If I collaborate with Terence Tao, the final results will be shared equally between the two of us.
Chen Zhou did not comment on this, but only stated his position.
Otherwise, Chen Zhou, who was caught in the middle, really didn't know how to communicate with two people at the same time.
Do they need to give feedback to each other on their respective research at the same time?
