From all-round academic master to chief scientist - Chapter 144 The original power (system) is present

Lin Xiao was stunned, turned around and saw an old professor who looked about fifty or sixty years old looking at him.

“you are?”

The old professor smiled slightly and said, “Chen Bao, from the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Peking University, is now an academician.”

When he heard that he was an academician, Lin Xiao was a little surprised and said, “It turns out to be Academician Chen. Sorry, I didn’t recognize him.”

“Haha, it’s okay. I’m looking for you because I hope you can join my research group. We need someone who is good enough in mathematics to help us with the analysis.”

Chen Bao smiled and waved his hand, and then told him why he was looking for Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao couldn’t help but be stunned, “As for the materials…are they very demanding in mathematics?”

“Although it is not as demanding as theoretical physics, we still need to perform mathematical analysis on various data.”

Chen Bao smiled slightly, “Of course, everything depends on your volition. If you are willing, of course I welcome it.”

Lin Xiao nodded, knowing what Chen Bao meant.

He had received many such invitations before, asking him to join the research group, and then he would just put his name on it. These were basically people who took a fancy to his potential and wanted to have a good relationship with him. Then he would put his name on it. , if there are funds to pay him a salary, if there is not much funds, then we will give him a position as a third or fourth engineer.

For these, Lin Xiao naturally rejected them all. It was better not to be owed any favors. If he wanted to find a topic, he would just look for one that he could play a role in. He didn’t care about the benefits or anything like that.

However, Lin Xiao was not in a hurry to refuse Academician Chen’s invitation.

Most of the people who invited him before were professors and had no other titles, but Chen Bao was the first academician to invite him.

Moreover, it is also about materials.

He thought for a while, then suddenly his heart moved, and he asked: “What is your topic? Can I find out more about it?”

“I can’t say much because the investors in our project are not simple, but the only thing I can say is the research on high-temperature creep properties of metals.”

High temperature creep?

Lin Xiao thought for a while and quickly remembered a term he had learned when he was studying the basics of materials science.

High-temperature creep of metal materials refers to the phenomenon of slow plastic deformation of metal materials under the long-term action of constant temperature and constant load. It can be roughly understood as the deformation of metal materials under the action of long-term external forces, and is similar to the physics of dripping water through stone. The nature of the changes is pretty much the same.

When metal materials are at high temperatures, the creep phenomenon becomes obvious. After all, when metal materials are at high temperatures, metal atoms are already active. If the outside world imposes long-term stress in the same direction, it may completely lead to its deformation.

Therefore, if the performance of metal materials in preventing creep at high temperatures can be improved, then such a material can obviously become an excellent high-temperature resistant material.

And the scope of its application is even wider.

Lin Xiao couldn’t help but become interested. He didn’t know how to conduct research on materials. Would it be troublesome?

In addition, he also thought of his voucher worth 30 truth points. The system originally recommended that he use it for the kind of research that relies on luck, and this kind of material research inevitably requires some luck.

In this case, I might as well take advantage of this opportunity to cooperate with academicians, first understand the research on materials science, and then take a look at the situation and consider whether to use the voucher.

So he said: “Academician Chen, thank you for your invitation. I am quite interested in what you are talking about. Let’s leave our contact information first. After all, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. If I want to participate, I may It’s the end of the year, so your project shouldn’t be over yet, right?”

Hearing Lin Xiao’s agreement, Chen Bao laughed and said, “It’s settled. The project will definitely not end so early. If you want to participate then, just tell me.”

Afterwards, Chen Bao and Lin Xiao exchanged contact information, and after a few brief chats, they separated.

The next party ended quickly, and Lin Xiao returned to Yanbei Garden at almost ten o’clock in the evening.

Because it was already late, Lin Xiao planned to go to bed directly. However, after going to bed, he remembered the video sent to him by Sir Attia Wiles.

So he picked up the tablet next to him, opened the mailbox, and saw the email from Wiles.

After downloading the attachment, he opened the video and clicked play.

Then, an old man who looked very old, even a little haggard, appeared on the screen.

He was wearing hospital clothes, and the surrounding environment was obviously a hospital.

However, with a relieved smile on his face, he said: “Young man, by the time you see this video, I may have truly…retired.”

“Not being able to talk to you may be my last regret, but no matter what, you made my retirement free of regrets.”

“The reincarnation of the world is just like this. The old people leave and the young people come up. Our mathematical world, which seems to be increasingly confused, can always find opportunities to go further.”

“And you were able to solve Goldbach’s conjecture at less than twenty years old. This shows me that there are successors in our mathematical community.”

“The Riemann Hypothesis is my regret. The proof failed last year – or I have already predicted that the proof will fail, but I am willing to do this kind of thing and take this risk.”

“John Pokinghall told me nine years ago that I had nothing to lose and to think about what I wanted to do, so I have been walking in this direction. Anyway, I have already received all the honors I can get. Now that you’ve got it, why worry?”

“But no matter what, my last efforts did not bring me success.”

“So I know that the efforts of an old guy like me are meaningless.”

“And you gave me hope, so… go on, Lin from the East, Goldbach’s conjecture has become a medal on your chest, but I believe you will not stop there and solve more problems. Problem, such as the Riemann Hypothesis? It is another regret of mine and a regret of many people in the mathematics community. I hope you can solve this regret for us again.”

“I don’t have much time, so be it, may-the-force-be-with-you.”

The video is over.

Lin Xiao was silent for a moment. The last wishes from a senior he had never met made him feel a sense of responsibility.

Of course, he will continue to try and solve those goals.

In the end, he smiled, which at least showed that even this old man valued him.

Please give me a monthly pass.
