Xueba starts with change

Chapter 365 I want to break the barrier!

Chen Zhou didn't see these emails until later.

Moreover, it was not he himself who discovered that he was collectively invited by the four heavenly kings of this mathematics journal.

It was Li Li who told Chen Zhou after he came back from the library.

Li Li has long been like Chen Zhou, or imitating Chen Zhou, dragging Li Jing to the library every day.

After hearing Li Li's reminder, Chen Zhou opened the browser and logged into his mailbox.

Looking at the little storage space left in his mailbox, Chen Zhou couldn't help but support his forehead.

Good guy, I clean up my email regularly, but the mailbox is almost running out.

What made Chen Zhou most helpless was that his email account was exposed by someone.

Many of the emails that sink to the bottom here are asking him about math problems.

He also asked if he could write a thesis for him.

There were also people who asked him if he minded having multiple girlfriends. If it was not possible, a boyfriend would be fine too...

For these emails, Chen Zhou was still interested in opening them at first, so he regarded them as decompression.

But then, there were too many of them, and he let them sink to the bottom.

Chen Zhou really wanted to complain, the rejection setting of this spicy chicken mailbox is really spicy, too spicy.

Not to mention that it didn't play a substantive role at all, some things that should be rejected were not rejected, and things that shouldn't be rejected were rejected instead.

It's like he and Yang Yiyi sent each other information before, but they were all treated as spam, which is also drunk.

Chen Zhou couldn't help thinking, should he develop a mailbox by himself?

Shaking his head helplessly, Chen Zhou casually opened the emails from "Annual Journal of Mathematics" and "Acta Mathematics", and briefly read them.

In general, the content is actually the same.

They all promised Chen Zhou that they would arrange it as soon as possible.

The only difference is that the "Annals of Mathematics", which is the most prestigious, has intentionally or unintentionally expressed that Professor Deligne, Professor Faltings, and Professor Langlands have great interest in his thesis.

If nothing else, the reviewers for his paper are these three people.

The mouse slid down, and Chen Zhou browsed the rest of the emails.

I picked a few who asked about the progress of Jebov's conjecture, and replied.

Then Chen Zhou let out a sigh, he saw the email sent by AMS.

That's right, it is the emotional card played by AMS commissioned by the Journal of the American Mathematical Society.

But the email was the chairman of MAA, the first non-white chairman in history, the Chinese mathematician who gave a speech at the closing ceremony of the MIT academic conference, Francis Su.

An email sent to Chen Zhou in his own name.

This made Chen Zhou feel very strange. When did AMS and MAA become one family?
Although Chen Zhou has dual membership status of AMS and MAA.

But he really didn't know that these two academic institutions were actually closely related.

After reading the contents of the email, a smile appeared on the corner of Chen Zhou's mouth.

Francis played his usual humorous style, as well as that sensational rhetoric.

It's just that Francis didn't mention a word, hoping that Chen Zhou would publish the paper in the "Journal of the American Mathematical Society".

He praised Chen Zhou's creativity in mathematics and congratulated him.

At the same time, Francis once again mentioned the issue of barriers.

It means that this is Chen Zhou once again breaking barriers as an undergraduate.

More importantly, because it is a graduation thesis, the proof of Jebov's conjecture, as a weapon to break the barrier, has a special meaning.

In the end, Francis hoped that Chen Zhou would have his own thinking and play a leading role as a banner.

"It seems that Professor Francis also listens to Huaguo news..."

Chen Zhou murmured softly, but he was also thinking about the meaning of this email.

Closing the page of the mailbox, Chen Zhou did not rush to reply to the emails from the four major journals.

He has his own ideas, but he can't decide.

He needs to ask someone tomorrow before making a decision.

Chen Zhou continued to write the content of the paper, and the whole paper can be completed in half a day tomorrow morning.

This night Chen Zhou didn't stay up all night, but washed up early and went to bed.

After playing the video with Yang Yiyi and feeding Zhao Qiqi and Zhu Mingli a meal of dog food, they went to sleep contentedly.

On the second day, Chen Zhou was still writing his thesis in the dormitory.

As he expected, the thesis was finished around 11 o'clock.

At this time, Chen Zhou opened the mailbox and sent the paper to Wu Xiping.

Then I called and asked if Wu Xiping was in the office, hoping that he could review the paper for me.

Wu Xiping was taken aback at first, thinking that I can't review your thesis?

Except for the small problem of the format, I can't study the other content for a long time?
As far as this format is concerned, each journal also has different requirements, and it is not easy to review?

Before Wu Xiping was puzzled for long, Chen Zhou said directly that he would go to the office to find him immediately.

That's right, the person Chen Zhou needs to ask is Wu Xiping.

During the nearly two years since he came to Yanda, the only two professors Chen Zhou is familiar with are Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan.

However, compared to Zhang Zhongyuan, Chen Zhou was more willing to discuss such issues with Wu Xiping.

Wu Xiping's office, just as Chen Zhou opened the door and walked in, he was stunned.

The other one he didn't choose, Zhang Zhongyuan, was in the office.

Moreover, there are only Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan in the office.

None of Wu Xiping's students and teaching assistants were there.

Zhang Zhongyuan didn't notice Chen Zhou's expression, and praised Chen Zhou when he saw Chen Zhou: "Chen Zhou, you kid can do it, you can kill these conjectures one after another, really..."

Chen Zhou came to his senses, and said with a smile: "You really have the demeanor of your past!"

Zhang Zhongyuan was taken aback for a moment, then pointed at Chen Zhou, and scolded with a smile: "You boy, why are you stealing my lines?"

Chen Zhou chuckled, but didn't speak.

Wu Xiping glanced at Chen Zhou, and asked aloud, "Tell me, what exactly are you looking for?"

Chen Zhou organized his language a bit, and said solemnly: "Professor, I want to submit my paper to a domestic journal."

Hearing Chen Zhou's words, Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan were stunned at the same time.

Zhang Zhongyuan's smiling expression froze instantly on his face.

"Ahem..." Zhang Zhongyuan coughed twice, slightly easing his shock, "Can I ask why?"

Wu Xiping was also surprised. Are the four major journals not good enough, or are you Chen Zhoupiao?
Facing the puzzled expressions of the two professors, Chen Zhou said slowly: "I hope there can be a top journal like the "Annual of Mathematics" in China! In our mathematics community, there are some structural barriers. , there are also..."

Chen Zhou's words were all reflections on what Francis said.

This kind of barrier does not only exist between people, but also between communities.

In academic journals such as journals, there are also.

Because behind the journal, there are also people.

Just like in the past 20 years, why did the "Acta Mathematica Sinica" only publish 5 papers by Chinese scholars?
The reasons for this may be multi-layered.

Of course, the most important thing Chen Zhou thought about was that Huaguo itself does not have world-class academic journals.

Or get straight to the point and have no top issue!

And Chen Zhou hopes to make some changes to break this barrier.

After listening to Chen Zhou's words, Wu Xiping and Zhang Zhongyuan looked at each other subconsciously.

Both of them saw shock in each other's eyes.

At the bottom of the shock, there was a touch of surprise.
