This was the first time Chen Zhou heard about this.

Could it be that the speed of your own conclusion has affected other people's research?

Xu Chenyang glanced at Chen Zhou, thought about it, and explained the domestic affairs to Chen Zhou.

Because Chen Zhou completed the project too quickly and the project funding was too small.

Other mathematicians who also apply for national funds for research are worried about their research speed and funding expenses.

The speed is not as fast as Chen Zhou, and the expenses are greater than Chen Zhou. It is difficult to guarantee the relevant fund management departments and there is nothing to say.

At the same time, they are more worried about the funding application for the next project.

Therefore, these mathematicians are now in a bleak state and don’t know what to do.

They also wanted to increase the speed of doing the project like Chen Zhou.

But this is not something you want to mention...

There is no way. Now the domestic mathematics community is staring at Chen Zhou’s next topic.

That is, the research progress of the Goldbach conjecture.

They were afraid that Chen Zhou would accidentally solve his guess again.

If that is the case, their pressure will double again.

Hearing Xu Chenyang's explanation, Chen Zhou immediately understood.

However, he didn't think it was a bad thing.

It would be great if he could inspire domestic mathematicians to do research projects.

It's better than they just want fame and fortune, right?

When Chen Zhou was thinking this, Xu Chenyang also said directly: "Actually, this situation may prompt a different research atmosphere in China."

Chen Zhou glanced at the "big brother" and nodded slightly: "It's a good thing to be able to change a little."

Xu Chenyang looked at Chen Zhou with some surprise. He read a different meaning from Chen Zhou's words.

Could it be that the young man in front of him always has this idea?

But isn't he only 20 years old?

Isn't this too incredible?

If you can't be the same as them, then change them?

This idea jumped into my mind, and Xu Chenyang's eyes at Chen Zhou changed completely.

Xu Chenyang himself is a person with deep feelings about the domestic environment. He once doubted whether his choice to return to China was correct and whether he could persist in the domestic environment.

But today, the unexpected meeting with Chen Zhou made him feel differently.

After the conversation started, there was no longer so much jerk between Chen Zhou and this "big brother".

After all, everyone is from Yan University and is still a mathematician.

At the last academic exchange meeting of MIT, Chen Zhou failed to communicate with this "big brother" well? This time he encountered an opportunity.

The two of them walked and chatted like this? There is no limit to the topic? There is no limit to what they said.

However, Liu Maosheng and Zeng Zigu, who were following the two, sounded "a great blessing".

After visiting the headquarters of ams, Chen Zhou and Xu Chenyang were about to leave here? Return to the hotel.

But? At the entrance of the ams headquarters building? Chen Zhou met an old acquaintance again.

Chen Zhou always felt that ams and maa must have an ulterior motive.

Now, he felt so even more.

Otherwise, why would the chairman of Maa appear at the door of Ams headquarters?

Looking at Chen Zhou with a puzzled look? Professor Francis, the chairman of maa? He smiled and said, "You look surprised?"

Chen Zhou nodded: "I just didn't expect to meet you here."

Francis pretended to be strange: "Before becoming the chairman of Maa, I was a mathematician first, so, I was here? Isn't it normal?"

Chen Zhou was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Yes? This is an academic exchange meeting for mathematicians."

Francis looked at Chen Zhou with a smile, and he still admired the young mathematician in front of him very much.

Because in the true sense, he did a broken wall.

His identity is just an ordinary college student, but with his personal ability, he broke the structural barriers in mathematics.

Therefore, Francis always wanted to have a good talk with Chen Zhou, and by the way, he invited Chen Zhou again about the matter in the email.

However, now is not the best time. Francis plans to wait until the Cole Awards are over before discussing this issue with Chen Zhou.

At least, Chen Zhou cannot use fame as a reason to reject himself.

So, Francis said: "Although tomorrow is the official award ceremony, we all know that this time the Cole number theory award belongs to you! So, congratulations in advance, the mathematical genius in China."

Chen Zhou politely expressed his gratitude.

After a few simple conversations, Chen Zhou and Xu Chenyang and others left together.

In place, only Francis and his assistant were left behind.

Francis looked at the departure of Chen Zhou and others and whispered: "The mathematical genius in China is the best choice to break the barriers..."

When the assistant beside him heard this, he said in deep agreement: "The Chinese mathematics community has never been in the leading position in world mathematics, so the appearance of Chen Zhou is likely to be an opportunity."

Francis nodded, said no more, turned to the ams headquarters building.

He came here and had other things to do.

Chen Zhou and others who returned to the hotel did not meet any acquaintances again, but met many mathematicians who came to participate in this academic exchange.

Although Chen Zhou did not know them, many of them knew Chen Zhou.

Faced with these people's active greetings, Chen Zhou had to respond politely one by one.

By the way, I will accept another wave of early congratulations.

To be honest, Chen Zhou felt that these people were always killing their expectations.

Now he really only has medals and bonuses that he didn't get, which made him look forward to it.

The next day, November 20.

This academic exchange meeting of the American Mathematics Society, hosted by Ams, kicked off.

The opening ceremony of the conference was held in the auditorium of the ams headquarters.

By the time Chen Zhou and his friends arrived, the place was already crowded.

After strengthening security for some restricted places in the headquarters building, ams chose to open all places for this academic exchange.

Students from nearby Brown University, or students from other universities, can come to participate spontaneously.

You can communicate with some math enthusiasts or listen to lectures from math masters.

When Chen Zhou and others could not find the position, he found someone in the front row was waving at him, and there were several empty seats beside the man.

Without hesitation, Chen Zhou pulled Xu Chenyang and others and squeezed over.

Looking at the person in front of him, Chen Zhou asked excitedly: "Yiyi, when did you come here? Why didn't you tell me?"

The one who waved to Chen Zhou was not someone else, but the girl he was thinking about day and night.

Yang Yiyi smiled and explained: "I came here early in the morning and then followed Professor Weiteng directly."

Chen Zhou said in confusion: "Professor Weiteng?"

Yang Yiyi nodded: "It's Professor Edward Weiteng, who studies string theory. He happened to be doing a communication visit in Ligo. Then I heard that he was going to come to the Academic Exchange Conference in Ams, so I asked for a leave from the tutor.

He came here together.”

"That's how..." Chen Zhou suddenly realized.

He was not surprised why Professor Weiteng went to Ligo for exchange visits.

After all, this is a mathematician, physicist, and economist who studied economics in undergraduate history, master's degree, and then went to study physics in the middle, but ended up winning the Fields Medal...

Anyway, it was Chen Zhou's happiest thing that Yang Yiyi could appear here.

Because of Yang Yiyi's appearance, Chen Zhou also expressed more expectations for the award ceremony for the Kerr Number Theory Awards to be held today.

It is absolutely a great thing to be able to win the highest award in the number theory world in front of your beloved girl and receive congratulations and applause from everyone present.

When Liu Maosheng and Zeng Zigu saw Yang Yiyi's appearance, they consciously did not interrupt and did not disturb Chen Zhou and the others.

However, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi were interrupted by others without a few words.

"Chen Zhou..."

Chen Zhou felt his clothes being pulled, and he turned his head in confusion and looked at Liu Maosheng beside him.

Liu Maosheng whispered at Chen Zhou and signaled him to look behind him.
