Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 355: Solve One First
In a sense, Chen Zhou's graduation project has completely exceeded the scope and difficulty of undergraduate graduation projects.
It is even more difficult than the graduation topics of most master's students and some doctoral students.
Of course, the difficulty lies in the experiment itself.
That is the point of the particle accelerator.
Normally speaking, how many ordinary college students can have access to national-level projects?
Can you see a particle accelerator like this?
This is also one of the reasons why Peng Jia and others are willing to join Chen Zhou's research team.
However, Yang Yiyi's joining surprised Chen Zhou.
So, after meeting Yang Yiyi, Chen Zhou cast aside his doubts.
Yang Yiyi smiled and explained, "You don't need to go to the lab anymore. The graduation project is already in the final stages. Well, I was very busy while you were at home."
Hearing Yang Yiyi's words, Chen Zhou smiled awkwardly and touched his nose.
He had known for a long time that Yang Yiyi was very unhappy because he did not accompany her back to school.
A week can go by fast or slow at the same time.
During this week, Chen Zhou focused his main energy on the Jebov conjecture.
However, the research on the optimal design of particle accelerator diodes was completely put aside.
However , compared with the graduation topic of the Department of Physics, the Djeboff conjecture of the Department of Mathematics is indeed a bit difficult.
Chen Zhou fell into the period of searching for inspiration again.
He has not yet found the final reason why the content that he had written twice on the draft paper appeared continuously in the collection of wrong questions.
At this time, time becomes a completely objective measurement tool.
Not only will the actual problem not be solved as time passes.
On the contrary, it will increase your inner irritability.
But fortunately, Chen Zhou has experienced such a period of time several times, and he is very familiar with this feeling.
There’s no way to rush it anyway, so it’s better to just keep a calm mind and study quietly.
Although Chen Zhou was not in a hurry, he made those who were paying attention to this incident anxious.
Terence Tao posted another blog today, analyzing in detail the research on the twin prime conjecture.
Moreover, Tao Terence expressed optimism that they are not far from the final result.
He even saw the wonderful conclusion of the twin prime conjecture.
In this regard, Tao's collaborator, Professor Zhang Yitang, did not make any comments.
But almost everyone believed that they would soon completely solve the problem of the twin prime conjecture.
On the other hand, let’s look at the other side of the competition, Chen Zhou’s side.
Not to mention publishing a paper on preliminary research results first, according to Yan University students, it is because of the dual majors in mathematics and physics.
This big shot also divided his time between graduation projects in two departments and did not concentrate on studying the Jebov conjecture at all.
Faced with this comparison, many people who supported Chen Zhou began to feel restless.
People have started calling for Yanda to give Chen Zhou more time on the campus network and Weibo.
After all, this competitive relationship is not just a matter of honor.
To some extent, it also represents a mathematical competition between the two countries, and also represents a hope for China's post-mathematical era.
If Chen Zhou loses, will this hope be shattered?
Previously, those people who were jumping around when Chen Zhou won many honors also showed signs of rekindling their enthusiasm.
Taking advantage of this trend of public opinion, people started to question things again.
They felt that if they lost, it would be because Chen Zhou underestimated his opponent.
Obviously, the other parties are two giants in mathematics, but Chen Zhou still has the leisure to care about the graduation project of the physics department. Isn't this just asking for trouble?
Of course, although this tone exists, not many people support it.
Deep down, they still hope that Chen Zhou will win the competition on behalf of Chinese mathematicians.
Instead of targeting Chen Zhou himself.
The influence of this flag is still very great, and no one wants it to fall.
Under such circumstances, Yanda was also under considerable pressure.
But no matter how worried people outside are, no matter how many people leave messages on the Yanda campus website, no matter how many people leave messages on the Yanda official blog.
Yanda has always remained silent under this pressure.
Whether it was Principal Qiu, Dean Sun, or Dean Zhou and Dean Yang, they all knew that at this time, they should give Chen Zhou as much space as possible.
As the person involved, Chen Zhou naturally did not have any extra time to pay attention to these things, and he completely blocked these sources of information.
Although he is not indifferent to the game, for , the study of the Jebov conjecture is the essence.
At the Yenching National Laboratory for Molecular Sciences, the particle accelerator's experimental equipment was finally available.
After making proper arrangements, Dean Yang contacted Chen Zhou in a timely manner.
Chen Zhou immediately decided to conduct the experiment as soon as possible.
After hanging up the phone with Dean Yang, he contacted Peng Jia and others, and then rushed to the laboratory with Yang Yiyi.
After arriving at the laboratory, Chen Zhou distributed some of the information he had to everyone.
Previously, he had already sent some of the results of his theoretical research to Yang Yiyi, Peng Jia and others via email.
Now, it’s his little thoughts.
"Chen Zhou, no, boss, are you planning to do something big?" Lin Xiaoen said in surprise after reading the contents of the information.
"Yeah, you have made a big deal out of this project!" Ma Zihao adjusted his glasses, his eyes flashing with a strange light.
Chen Zhou glanced at the two of them and said with a smile: "I believe you, there should be no problem."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoen and Ma Zihao looked at each other, then patted their chests and said, "No problem, no problem, don't worry, boss!"
Seeing this, Peng Jia couldn't help but interrupt: "What do you mean no problem? Didn't you see clearly, or what? This is not just a simple diode optimization design. The experimental workload has doubled!"
"Uh..." Lin Xiaoen and Ma Zihao looked at each other, a little embarrassed.
At this time, Yang Yiyi said, "Senior, this is actually nothing. Compared to the time from the proposal to the formal experiment, to the materials we have now, he has saved more than half of the time."
Hearing Yang Yiyi's words, Peng Jia was startled, then nodded gently: "Indeed, what he lacks now is just some verification. I admit that you, Chen Zhou, are very good, and your speed in doing research is simply indescribable! But I still think that this optimal solution diode is impossible."
Chen Zhou glanced at Peng Jia and said softly, "Do you want to give it a try? It's just an idea. As long as it doesn't affect my graduation project, it's fine."
Since Chen Zhou said so, Peng Jia naturally had no objections and immediately started to arrange the experiment.
Looking at the people in the experimental area, Chen Zhou was looking forward to the results of the experiment.
Now, he needs to solve one problem first.
Then leave the rest of the time to Jebov's conjecture.
