"In addition, I have to apologize to all the teachers. I'm not a student of Jiao Tong University. I'm just here to visit.”
rustle ~
In the conference room, all the professors and PhD supervisors stood up.
Academician Zhao's expression was solemn. He was silent for a whole minute before he spoke.
"Lin Yi, do you mean that the inventor of the mathematical tool Ricci flow was someone else?”
Zhao Wenjun was 100% sure that there had never been such a practical and accurate mathematical tool like the Ricci flow in the world of mathematics.
The significance of creating this mathematical tool was too great, so he had to pay attention to it.
Lin Yi nodded.
"The Ricci flow was created by mathematician Melton and perfected by the mathematical hermit Perelman.”
Zhao Wenjun's gaze was both gratified and disappointed.
He was glad that this young student in front of him did not hide anything and wanted to take such a major achievement for himself.
What was lost was that such a major achievement was still invented and created by foreigners.
However…
Among the professors, Professor Huang, who had gone to inform the students earlier, frowned and interrupted,"The mathematicians, Melton and Perelman? Why have I never heard of these two mathematicians?”
Hearing Professor Huang's words, all the professors present came to their senses and began to discuss.
The result of the discussion was that not only Professor Huang, but everyone present had never heard of these two mathematicians.
To have the ability to create a set of mathematical tools independently, it was obvious that these two mathematicians were very skilled. It was impossible for them to be unknown people.
This time, even Zhao Wenjun had a glimmer of hope. He looked at Lin Yi anxiously, wanting an answer.
Of course, Lin Yi couldn't reveal the real answer.
He scratched his head and explained after thinking for a moment,"To be honest, I've never seen these two mathematicians before. I just happened to buy a notebook in a second-hand bookstore. There were two mathematicians 'notes on the Ricci flow.”
"Sigh ~"
The professors all sighed, their disappointment evident in their words.
But compared to everyone's disappointment, Academician Zhao composed himself and encouraged everyone,""According to Lin Yi, this manuscript is most likely left behind by two strange mathematicians. Although it wasn't the result of our research, it was still the first mathematical tool to be discovered by us.”
Academician Zhao turned to Lin Yi and smiled.""Student Lin Yi, I still have to thank you for your discovery. Otherwise, our mathematics world would have missed out on this treasure. By the way, you said that you're not a student from our Jiao Tong University. Could it be that you're from the neighboring University of Science and Technology?”
Lin Yi shook his head in denial.
"I didn't go to university. After I failed the college entrance examination, I delivered packages in Binhai.”
His words were not a lie. The Lin Yi of this world was indeed like that.
However, Lin Yi did not expect his words to silence the entire meeting room.
After a long time, a professor stuttered,""Lin Yitong…is he…a courier?”
What kind of joke was this? Could it be that a bunch of full-time professors and PhD supervisors had been listening to a delivery man's math class for the entire morning?
Academician Zhao Wenjun was the only one who looked calm.
Although he was also surprised by Lin Yi's identity, he was already 90 years old and had eaten more salt than others. What kind of big scene had he not seen?
He had even seen a self-taught genius like Lin Yi.
The most typical example was the Chinese mathematician Hong Zhexuan.
Hong Zhexuan was in junior high school at the age of eight. At the age of twelve, he won an international Olympic championship and received his PhD at the age of eighteen.
He solved the Calaby's conjecture at the age of 25 and won the Fields Gold Medal, the highest award in the mathematics world.
After testing, Hong Zhexuan's IQ was as high as 233. Guinness had certified him as the person with the highest IQ in the world.
Compared to Hong Zhexuan, Lin Yi was considered normal.
Academician Zhao Wenjun waved his hand.""In the field of mathematics, it's more important to prioritize the one who reaches the top. Everyone has been studying mathematics for many years. They should understand that young people's minds are always more active than old people like us. The peak age of a mathematician was between the ages of 20 and 38. Putting everything else aside, Kobayashi's mastery of Ricci flow and dimensional topography surpassed everyone present.”
These professors and PhD supervisors knew this, but when they thought about how they had listened to Lin Yi's lecture like an obedient student, they felt awkward.
Zhao Wenjun didn't want to bother with these professors and PhD supervisors. She turned to look at Lin Yi with a kind expression.
"Kobayashi, although you haven't been to university, your desire to learn is commendable. How about this? If you're willing, I can get the school to make an exception and recruit you. You can follow me and do some simple mathematical research.”
This was shocking news.
All the professors present looked at Lin Yi with envy and jealousy.
Academician Zhao was one of the founders of the field of mathematics.
Many famous mathematicians in China wanted to study under Academician Zhao.
If Academician Zhao could be his mentor, he could save a lot of trouble!
Let's just talk about the Annual Mathematics journal.
When the reviewers saw that the author of the thesis was Academician Zhao's student, they would probably take it seriously.
It was a pity that Academician Zhao had stopped recruiting PhD students ever since he fell seriously ill 20 years ago. He even held fewer and fewer public lectures at Jiao Tong University.
Of course, even though the professors were envious, they also recognized Lin Yi's academic standards.
If Lin Yi could study under Academician Zhao for a few years, he would have a chance of becoming a famous mathematician in the country.
At the thought of this, the professors and PhD supervisors all kindly encouraged Lin Yi.
"Student Xiao Lin, what are you waiting for? Academician Zhao is personally recruiting students. This kind of opportunity is rare. If it wasn't for Elder Zhao looking down on me, I would be willing to study under Elder Zhao again.”
"That's right. What's there to hesitate about, little student? Hurry up and agree.”
Not only the professors, but even the dean of the department laughed and said,"Student Xiao Lin, if you're willing to come to our Jiao Tong University, your tuition fees will be free. Our Mathematics Department will also arrange the best single room for you!”
