I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is right next to the Clay Institute. After accepting an interview with the Discovery Channel, Shen Qi gave a keynote speech on the Riemann Hypothesis at MIT, which worked well.

Under the invitation and organization of the American Mathematical Society, Shen Qi flew non-stop to the west coast of the United States and gave three lectures at UCLA, Berkeley, and San Diego.

When participating in the selection of the Ford Prize last year, Shen Qi paid a selection fee of 20,000 US dollars, so he became a foreign member of the American Mathematical Society.

Shen Qi is a member of the American Mathematical Society, but has not become a member of any Chinese mathematical association or organization.

Shen Qi has a crazy fandom in the United States, from the east coast to the west coast, and has not yet participated in any public academic activities in China.

The Chinese Mathematical Society can't sit still anymore. Among their 50,000 members, there are more than 500 foreign members. However, Shen Qi, who has been dealing with the Chinese Mathematical Society for several years, has not been absorbed as a local member so far.

So Shen Qi was immediately awarded the title of "Senior Honorary Member" by the Chinese Mathematical Society, free of membership fees for life, and enjoyed all the benefits of the association.

After all, pretending to be B in the United States does not speak the mother tongue, and the sense of accomplishment is huge, but the sense of belonging is slightly lacking.

Wang Minxing, the current president of the Chinese Mathematical Society, called Shen Qi: "Shen Qi, come back, the motherland is eagerly looking forward to your return."

Shen Qi was a little surprised: "President Wang, Dean Wang, how dare I bother you to call me personally."

President Wang is the president of the Chinese Mathematical Society and also the dean of the Yanda Mathematics Institute. President Wang said: "Shen Qi, you know that I have several identities, so now, on behalf of the Chinese Mathematical Society and Yanda, I sincerely invite you to return to China before July and share your success with everyone.”

"Okay, I also miss my motherland very much, Dean Wang, see you at Yan University!" Shen Qi is still used to addressing Wang Min as Dean Wang. For him, his alma mater, Yan University, is above all else, and this is his starting point.

The period from June to August is Shen Qi's vacation. He has obtained a Ph.D.

Shen Qi remotely commanded in Los Angeles, arranging academic work during the return period: "Little Yezi, you can ask Professor Gong a lot, or you need to make a breakthrough from the zero-point equation. Me? I will probably stay in China for about one to two weeks. , um, I will bring you a gift."

"Mary, hurry up on the research on the third expression of RT. During my return to China, you will coordinate the daily work of the project team."

"Jonas, you cooperate with Mary to carry out the research work. You must be good at using various resources in Princeton, and you must not miss the coffee time on Wednesday. A small chat between Princeton professors during the coffee time, a sudden inspiration, may help us break the situation , Opportunities often belong to those who are prepared.”

"Old Zhou, come back to Yan Dalang with me, what? I'm sorry to go back without any grades? I've pretended that you're forced to play a supporting role?"

"Zhou Yu'an, don't think so... that's fine, you stay in Puda to study mathematics, I'm leaving, goodbye."

After everything was arranged, Shen Qi flew from Los Angeles to China, and the first stop was to go home.

There is a direct flight from Los Angeles to Nangang City, Shen Qi stayed at home for two days to accompany his parents.

"Son, you haven't won the Fields Medal, are you so popular?" Fan Yunxia was proud, but also a little confused.

"The so-called red is just a little famous in the mathematics circle. After all, ordinary people can't really understand the meaning of Riemann's conjecture." Shen Qi said.

"

"Dad, don't look at me like that. According to IMU's practice, I have little chance of winning the Philippine Award this year. After four years, the Philippine Award should belong to me."

"Four more years? You'll be a father soon after four years. By the way, what about Xiaoou, she didn't come back with you? You two didn't have any conflicts, did you?"

"I'm in harmony with Xiaoou. She's still in graduate school and has no time to come back. Dad, Mom, I'm leaving and going to the capital. Take care of yourself."

The capital was relatively well prepared. The working group to welcome Shen Qi's return was mainly composed of Yanda people, and the Chinese Mathematical Society sent representatives.

In Yanyuan, Shen Qi received the members of the working group, held the first meeting of the working group, and listened to the relevant reports of the working group.

The working group reported a work plan to Shen Qi, that is, Shen Qi's itinerary during his return to China:

Keynote speeches, special sessions for Yanda University, special sessions for the Chinese Mathematical Society, and special sessions for several prestigious universities in the capital.

Thematic academic exchange meeting, YSU special session, Chinese Mathematical Society special session.

Interview activities, CCTV Science and Education Channel, Capital Satellite TV, and some portal websites.

Under the grassroots activities, I visited a middle school in the capital, and as a math teacher, I had a lively and interesting math class with middle school students in the capital.

Award ceremony, participate in the award ceremony and receive the "Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award".

...

"Isn't this schedule too tight?" Shen Qi felt that being a successful person was exhausting. When I was in America, you guys told me that!

"Then Shen Qi, take a look, which activity can you cancel?" Sun Erxiong, the leader of the working group, asked.

Keynote speeches, two special sessions by Yanda University and the Chinese Mathematical Society, this cannot be turned down. Shuimu University, one of the famous universities in the capital, cannot be dismissed. The friendship between Yanda University and Shuimu University will last forever, and good neighborliness and harmony are the main theme.

Neither of the two academic exchanges can be dismissed. This is the most meaningful and valuable event for Shen Qi when he returns to China. Regarding the follow-up research work on the third expression of RT, he would like to hear the opinions and opinions of domestic mathematics experts. suggestion.

Shen Qi couldn't refuse to go to the grassroots to give math lessons to middle school friends. Everyone knows the truth that a strong youth makes China strong.

To participate in the awarding ceremony of the "Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award", Shen Qi had to go. He could not slap the Chinese Mathematical Society in the face, after all, this association has treated him very well.

Back then, the Chinese Mathematical Society overcame all opinions and awarded the "Chen Shiingshen Mathematics Award" to Shen Qi, who was only 21 years old. Shen Qi was still grateful.

After much deliberation, Shen Qi made a last resort decision: "Let's reschedule the speeches of Beijing Institute of Technology and Capital University of Science and Technology to the next time, and arrange the interview of the TV media with the CNR family."

"That's fine, let's communicate." A man in the working group who is in charge of dealing with the media said, he is the backbone of Yanda's public relations department.

The great capital is China's political center, cultural center, foreign exchange center, and technological innovation center.

Being recognized by the capital's political, cultural, and scientific and educational circles basically represents the attitude of the relevant fields across the country.
