Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 471 Why is it another rumor?
Because they had to go back to work, Lin Xiaoen and Ma Zihao reluctantly left Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou was finally able to escape from the double-team.
Looking at the backs of Lin Xiaoen and others returning to the laboratory, Chen Zhou smiled softly.
Yang Yiyi asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"
Chen Zhou shook his head slightly: "Nothing."
After a pause, Chen Zhou looked at Yang Yiyi and said, "Yiyi, I have good news to tell you."
Yang Yiyi asked curiously, "What?"
Chen Zhou said proudly: "I'm going to win another award..."
Yang Yiyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is it the award from the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians?"
When Yang Yiyi said this, Chen Zhou became confused.
How come there is another World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians?
The World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians has nothing to do with the Chern Prize in Mathematics.
The Chern Mathematics Award was funded by Mr. Liu, the founder of the Yilida Group, and jointly established with the China Mathematical Society.
Each award is presented at the annual academic meeting of the Chinese Mathematical Society.
In addition to the Chern Shiing-Shen Mathematics Award, the Chinese Mathematical Society also established the Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award and the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award.
Like the Chern Mathematics Award, these two awards are selected and awarded every two years.
The Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award was established to commemorate the great achievements of Mr. Hua, to encourage Chinese mathematicians to make outstanding contributions to the development of Chinese mathematics, and to promote the development of Chinese mathematics.
Although the award is aimed at Chinese mathematicians who have made outstanding academic achievements in the field of mathematics.
But there is actually an age limit in principle, which is not less than 50 years old .
This is also to distinguish it from the Chern Mathematics Award.
As for the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, it is awarded to the best master 's .
Speaking of which, if Chen Zhou were to judge the Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award, he would definitely win in seconds.
It is also more in line with his status as a graduate student.
However, if you use this undergraduate thesis on the Jebov conjecture to defeat a group of master's and doctoral students in seconds.
After all, it's still a bit unfair.
Chen Zhou guessed that this was the reason why he was awarded the Chern Mathematics Award.
Of course, relying on the solution to the Gerbov conjecture, it was more than enough for Chen Zhou to win the Chern Prize in Mathematics.
Not to mention, he also had the proof of the hailstone conjecture, the proof of the Cramer conjecture, and the opportunity to analyze number theory using the method of distributional deconstruction.
But, the Chern Shiing-Shen Mathematics Award belongs to the Chinese Mathematical Society, and has nothing to do with the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians at all?
The International Congress of Chinese Mathematicians, also known as ICCM.
It was jointly initiated in 1998 by Mr. Qiu Chengtong, who praised Chen Zhou and was the first Chinese winner of the Fields Medal, and Chen Qizhong, chairman of Hong Kong Morningside Group.
The awards established and awarded by this conference are much more than the three awards of the Chinese Mathematical Society.
There are the Morningside Mathematics Award, the Morningside Applied Mathematics Award, the Chern Award, the International Cooperation Award, the New World Mathematics Award and the Taikang Middle School Mathematics Award.
Just as the Chern Prize in Mathematics is called the "Fields Medal of China", the Morningside Prize in Mathematics is also called the "Fields Medal of the Chinese".
If we really compare them, the influence of the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians is definitely much stronger than that of the Chinese Mathematical Society.
After all, one is in China, and the other is the circle of Chinese mathematics community all over the world.
Relatively speaking, because the goals of the awards are different, their value is also different.
After hearing what Yang Yiyi said, Chen Zhou was also wondering, he had won the highest award in number theory, why didn’t he win an award from the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians?
Moreover, Chen Zhou remembered that the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians is held every three years.
Judging from the time, the most recent one should be last year.
That was 2016.
But last year, apart from the Cole Prize in Number Theory, he had no other achievements.
Of course, what puzzled Chen Zhou even more was that it was already 2017, so why did Yang Yiyi only mention the World Congress of Mathematicians?
Thinking of this, Chen Zhou asked, "Yiyi, wasn't the World Conference of Chinese Mathematicians held?"
Hearing this, Yang Yiyi couldn't help but glance at Chen Zhou: "Don't you know that last year's World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians was postponed?"
Chen Zhou was stunned again, but immediately thought of a possibility.
It also instantly connected all the clues together.
He was surprised that the Chern Mathematics Award was awarded at the annual academic meeting of the Chinese Mathematical Society, which is true.
But why was the annual academic meeting of the Chinese Mathematical Society adjusted to after the Spring Festival?
Isn't it usually before the end of the year?
But Yang Yiyi's words reminded Chen Zhou.
The annual academic meeting of the Chinese Mathematical Society and the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians may very likely be held together!
This also explains why Dean Sun, Professor Wu Xiping, Professor Zhang Zhongyuan and others refused to tell Chen Zhou what the surprise was.
Because Chen Zhou felt that the Chern Mathematics Prize alone should not be kept so secret.
Of course, this is just Chen Zhou's guess.
He didn't know what the specific situation was.
Therefore, Chen Zhou did not tell Yang Yiyi about his guess.
He just shook his head slightly and replied, "Well, I didn't pay attention to it. I'm not sure if it has been postponed..."
After all, how embarrassing would it be if you guessed wrong?
"Oh..." Yang Yiyi nodded gently, thinking for a moment, and then said, "I didn't know it at first. It was only when I met Brother Liu Maosheng and his friends when I went back to MIT last time that I heard them say it."
"Later, I looked it up out of curiosity and found that in previous years, the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians was not held, but rather announced a postponement."
After hearing what Yang Yiyi said, Chen Zhou immediately understood.
Liu Maosheng is a student in the Department of Mathematics at Harvard.
And who is the professor at Harvard University?
It’s none other than Mr. Qiu Chengtong!
Moreover, this is the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians. Liu Maosheng and Zeng Zigu must be thinking about "communication and exchange".
Considering the level of social interaction of Senior Brother Liu, Chen Zhou felt that it was normal for them to obtain this information.
After thinking for a while, Chen Zhou asked, "Did they say when the event will be postponed?"
Yang Yiyi hesitated and said, "When I looked at it, it wasn't on the notice yet. But according to the gossip I got from Senior Brother Liu and the others, it should be postponed to after the Spring Festival next year..."
Chen Zhou's expression became strange when he heard this.
Why is it another rumor?
Can't these people use new words when they speak?
Yao Tongtong said it was just gossip before, and now Liu Maosheng and the others are also spreading gossip...
Is it true that I can only get information from hearsay?
