"Dong dong dong."
"Elder Zhou…"
Suddenly, there was a soft knock on the door. It was the voice of his student, Xu Enmin.
"Enter."
Soon, a refined man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked in.
He wasn't young, about forty years old, and his eyes were bright.
"Your hometown, Beishan City, has sent a test paper regarding the proof of Zhou's conjecture.”Xu Enmin whispered.
"Oh, leave it there. I'll look at it when I have time.”Zhou Hai Zhong waved his hand and said.
Ever since he proposed Zhou's conjecture, almost every few days, there would be a paper on Zhou's conjecture on his desk.
Zhou Haizhong did not think that he was the best in the world. He hoped that someone could prove this " riddle ".
Ten years passed like a day. From the beginning, he was excited and full of anticipation as he opened the answer sheet. Now, he was too lazy to open it.
Because every time, he was disappointed.
There were too many people who wanted to become famous in a day.
"Teacher, you should take a look at this answer sheet. I guarantee that it's definitely not as bad as you think.”Xu En said sincerely.
"Isn't proving Zhou's conjecture your lifelong wish? Perhaps this answer sheet will give you a satisfactory answer.”
Every time there was a big theory about Zhou's conjecture, Xu Enlai would read it first.
He would eliminate most of the dross and write the most essential and enlightening answer sheet. However, this answer sheet was different. He could not understand it!
He was keenly aware that this answer sheet might be different.
Staring into Xu Enlai's eyes, Zhou Haizhong was silent for a while before finally taking the answer sheet from his hand.
As a scholar, he could not suppress his curiosity.
"Let me see what surprise Li Xueming has brought me.”
"No. 4 High School? Zhou Luo?" Zhou Haizhong smiled when he saw the address.
That was his alma mater, but he had never heard of the name Zhou Luo.
Perhaps it was a new teacher, but Zhou Haizhong continued to read patiently.
Drip, drip.
The clock continued to move, and time ticked away.
One minute, two minutes, ten minutes…
Zhou Haizhong frowned. He stared at the first page of the answer sheet as if he had been immobilized. He had no intention of turning the page.
Seeing Zhou Hai Zhong like this, Xu Enmin slowed down his breathing and lowered his footsteps, standing quietly at the side.
Just as he thought, this answer sheet was unusual.
After another half an hour, Zhou Haizhong finally flipped to the first page. His speed became faster and faster. In a few minutes, he had already read the entire answer sheet.
"Peng!" Zhou Hai Zhong slammed his hands on the desk, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"Teacher?" Xu Enmin asked tentatively.
Zhou Haizhong did not say anything. He just stared blankly at the answer sheet in front of him and muttered," Perfect, too perfect."”
This was the most perfect answer he had seen so far. The idea was clear, the logic was rigorous, and the method of application was quite ingenious. Even he, the person who proposed Zhou's conjecture, could not find any flaws.
It was smooth! It was so smooth that it was unbelievable.
This might very well be the key to proving the conjecture, the key to upgrading Zhou's conjecture to a theorem!
If he had doubted this paper in the beginning, he was now convinced by it.
If one had to give it an evaluation, there was only one word: "Impressive."
Amazing!
Hearing his teacher's words, Xu Enmin was stunned on the spot.
Others might not know Zhou Haizhong's personality, but as his assistant, he knew it very well. He was tough and never admitted defeat. He didn't even care about Academician Wang Xuecai.
But now, he praised him for being amazing.
"Book a plane ticket. I want to go to Beishan City to meet Zhou Luo.”Zhou Hai Zhong said sternly.
He really wanted to see what kind of person could prove Zhou's conjecture so smoothly.
"Teacher, the research institute project will start the day after tomorrow. Do you think it's better to move the time to go to North Mountain?”Xu Enmin looked troubled.
"Then we'll go tomorrow."
"You have to attend the report tomorrow."
"..." Zhou Hai Zhong's face was ashen as he sighed deeply.
Although he had already achieved success and fame, there were still some things that he could not be detached from.
"I really want to know who Zhou Luo is. Also, make a copy of the answer sheet and give it to Wang Xuecai and Song Baoguo.”After saying that, Zhou Haizhong took out a pen and paper from the drawer of the desk and used the method on the answer sheet to calculate in detail.
"Alright." Xu Enmin took a deep breath, turned around, and left the room.
Wang Xuecai, Song Baoguo, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, enjoying special state subsidies.
At this moment, Xu Enmin only felt that the answer sheet in his hand was heavy. This light paper carried the results of the mathematics world's hard work for more than ten years.
A world-class mathematics problem could be solved.
The academic value contained in it was immeasurable.
——
Beishan City, No.1 Middle School.
The three tests were about to begin.
However, to Zhou Luo, it was just a formality.
Ten minutes later, Zhou Luo had finished writing the answers, handed in his paper, and left the examination hall.
Other than Li Xueming, the ten judges looked at each other.
Throughout the three days of the couplet competition, other than Zhou's conjecture, which caused Zhou Luo a little trouble, the other questions did not hinder him at all.
" Without a doubt, full marks again!" In the marking room, Li Xueming personally marked Zhou Luo's papers.
Unsurprisingly, this was another full score.
There was no surprise. Everything seemed to be natural. The teachers who marked the papers did not even lift their eyelids.
