From all-round academic master to chief scientist - Chapter 178 Party! cheers!
There is a traditional evening party at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris called Night on the Rue Ulm.
Tonight, École Normale Supérieure in Paris held another party to celebrate their doctoral student Lin Xiao, who won the crown jewel of mathematics called the Twin Prime Conjecture.
Such an important result certainly deserves special treatment from the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris.
Therefore, the name of this party is “Lin Xiao Night”.
Of course, unlike the Ulm Street Night, this party is not open to the public. Only students and teachers from the Ecole Normale Supérieure, as well as invited mathematicians, can attend.
In fact, this party had already started before Lin Xiao returned to the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris.
Although he is the protagonist, the party is also an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other, so his absence does not affect people’s activities at the party.
However, when he came here, he was naturally greeted with enthusiasm from everyone present.
When he entered the party, everyone present gathered around him and cheered him.
“Lin Xiao! Lin Xiao!”
“Our hero is here!”
“The distinguished Prince of Mathematics arrived at his loyal École Normale Supérieure at six fifty-two!”
“Salute to the hero of the party!”
…
Facing the enthusiasm of everyone present, Lin Xiao was also infected by the atmosphere, smiled on his face and shouted: “Thank you everyone!”
“ohhh!”
The people who received the response cheered again.
At this time, Lin Xiao heard a voice from the side again, “Lin, take your wine glass first, and then celebrate with everyone!”
Lin Xiao turned around and saw Professor Laurent Laforgue shouting to him. At the same time, Professor Laforgue also held a glass of red wine in his hand and raised it to him.
And many people present also had red wine in their hands.
After all, France is the birthplace of red wine, so how can such a party be without red wine?
Of course Lin Xiao did not refuse: “Okay!”
Drinking and chatting with friends is indispensable in life, and now it is indeed time to celebrate with every friend present.
So, he took the goblet from the students who were serving as waiters, and then poured one-third of the wine into it.
Then he walked to the stage, faced everyone present, and said with a smile: “Thank you to every friend for your enthusiasm, and thank you everyone for celebrating me, then-“
“A-votre-santé!”
He shouted the French word for ‘cheers’ and then raised his glass to greet everyone present.
When they heard his voice, people in the party raised their glasses and shouted: “A-votre-santé!”
Afterwards, everyone drank the red wine in the glass together.
Normally, one would not drink all the red wine in France, but at this moment, everyone didn’t care so much and drank all the wine in the glass.
“Thank you everyone!”
After finishing his drink, Lin Xiao raised his empty wine glass again and smiled.
“Great!”
The stadium erupted in cheers again.
At this time, someone suddenly shouted: “Lin! Do you know Chinese Kung Fu?”
Everyone around laughed and looked at Lin Xiao, looking forward to his answer.
Lin Xiao spread his hands and said with a smile: “Yes, we Chinese people know kung fu.”
“It just so happens that there is a particularly powerful move in our kung fu called point-pointing. The first move is to rub the Tianying point.”
He tapped on his eye sockets, rubbed it gently, and then pinched the center of his eyebrows: “This is called squeezing the Jingming point.”
“Then there are rubbing the Sibai points, pressing the temples, and scraping the eye sockets.”
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, the gringos present were a little confused. The person before asked again: “What are they used for?”
Lin Xiao smiled and said: “It can’t hurt people, but it can protect your eyes, so it’s also called eye exercises.”
The people present were stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed.
“I’ll definitely try it when I get back!” the man shouted.
“Of course, no problem!” Lin Xiao said with a smile: “For example, if you have been reading a novel for a long time, you should stop at the right time and do this set of ‘kung fu’ to protect your eyes.”
Everyone present gave a thumbs up and then clapped.
Lin Xiao then walked off the stage amidst such applause, met up with his familiar friends, and continued to enjoy the party.
In a corner of the hall, international students from China’s Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris were gathering together. When they saw this scene, they all showed envious eyes.
“Lin Xiao has probably ascended to immortality now.”
“Not only has he become an immortal, he has become invincible in heaven and earth.”
They sighed.
They are now super bosses, and although they studied at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris and are envied by many people, compared with others, they are completely on the same level.
“Go find him a drink.”
“Let’s go.”
Then, these Chinese students stood up and walked towards Lin Xiao.
They were also familiar with Lin Xiao. After all, they were all from China, and of course they had communicated with each other before.
When several fellow villagers approached him for a drink, Lin Xiao naturally did not refuse and chatted with them while drinking.
The party gradually came to an end as everyone drank, chatted, and listened to the music of the music students from the art department.
…
As the protagonist, Lin Xiao certainly drinks a lot of wine. In addition to red wine, this party also includes beer. Red wine may not be a drink that is used for free drinking in French culture, but beer is obviously very suitable.
As a result, in addition to red wine, Lin Xiao also drank a lot of beer. The combination of these two different wines made it easier for alcohol to penetrate into the blood.
So Lin Xiao was completely carried back to the dormitory by Alex and the others.
The night has entered eleven o’clock, and after the party, the college once again fell into silence.
A night of silence.
…
At nine o’clock the next morning, amid several meows of cats, Lin Xiao opened his eyes that were still a little sore.
“Well…it’s dawn.”
Turning his head and looking to the side, Mimi was shouting to him.
Lin Xiao reached out and rubbed the cat’s head. After sitting up from the bed, he looked at the time, “Huh? It’s already past nine o’clock.”
No wonder Mimi is barking, she is probably hungry.
This cat is good at everything, except that it eats a lot. It can basically eat as much cat food as Lin Xiao puts in it, so he basically controls the amount he feeds it, unless he has something to do, he will put more in it. , but she didn’t come back yesterday, so Mimi must have been starved for a long time.
“sorry.”
After rubbing Mimi’s head and taking a usual sip, Lin Xiao got out of bed, poured cat food for it, and then started to wash up and eat breakfast.
After doing all this, he started his own work, which was to send the proof paper of the twin prime conjecture to the “Annals of Mathematics”. Yesterday, Professor Sanak, as the editor-in-chief, said that he would also serve as a reviewer at that time Of course, in addition to inviting several top mathematicians to conduct the final review, his paper will be published when the issue of “Annals of Mathematics” is released in July.
After finishing these things, he suddenly received a piece of news shared by Alex.
News published by the Los Angeles Times, [Stanford University mathematics professor David Cayman said geniuses are boring].
At the same time, Alex also replied: “Lin, this guy is going to be in trouble!” Hahaha! 』
Seeing this, Lin Xiao couldn’t help but be stunned, David Cayman?
Isn’t he the one who competed with him on the twin prime number conjecture?
What’s going on here?
He clicked on the news and saw a video. After the video played, there was a recording first.
“I don’t like this kind of so-called genius who disrupts the order of the mathematical world and affects other people’s results. It’s really annoying.”
Hearing these words, Lin Xiao couldn’t help but frown, and then shook his head slightly. Indeed, as Alex said, this guy is going to be unlucky.
Because, of course, their research on these basic theories does not only require geniuses. Geniuses have set up the entire framework, and filling the framework still requires the work of a lot of people.
But genius is absolutely indispensable to the scientific community, just like those mathematicians who have won the Fields Medal. Who can deny the fact that they are geniuses?
Therefore, Cayman’s words were not only directed at him, but also at more ‘geniuses’, so he would naturally be unlucky.
