Chapter 391 Gossip
Regarding this question, Chen Zhou thought of Zhang Yitang's email, as well as his own email to Tao Zhexuan.

Chen Zhou said to Yao Tongtong on the opposite side of the video, "It's just a joke."

Yao Tongtong was taken aback, and just about to ask, Chen Zhou continued: "The study of mathematical conjectures is pure. The jokes among mathematicians are also pure."

"We enjoy the process of mathematical research and the communication with each other. We don't think so much about the results of mathematical conjectures."

"Actually, no matter who wins or loses in this game, it doesn't matter. What matters is what we gain in the process of research."

"For me, the proof of Jebov's conjecture, the perfection of the distribution deconstruction method, and the help to Professor Tao and Professor Zhang in the twin prime number conjecture are my biggest gains."

"Besides, isn't the current result the best result?"

Hearing Chen Zhou's answer, Yao Tongtong couldn't help thinking: "Is this person only 20 years old? Is he 20? Look, look, this realm is different. No wonder he can solve world-class math problems." ..."

Slightly nodded, Yao Tongtong said: "For the mathematics community, two consecutive world-class mathematical conjectures proved to be the final result."

Hearing this, Chen Zhou glanced at Yao Tongtong, shook his head lightly, but didn't say much, just asked aloud: "Is there any question?"

Yao Tongtong looked down at the notebook in his hand and asked, "Student Chen Zhou, you have achieved such a high achievement at such a young age. What is your future goal?"

Chen Zhou thought for a while and said, "The goal, of course, is to build your own mathematics building..."

Chen Zhou directly brought out the system's rhetoric. Anyway, this is his task, so it can be regarded as a goal, right?

While Chen Zhou was talking, Yao Tongtong quickly recorded in his notebook.

This interview went well.

What surprised Yao Tongtong was that she always thought that Chen Zhou was not good at words.

Even after seeing Chen Zhou's speech at Yanda's graduation ceremony, she thought it was a prepared speech.

It's just that Chen Zhou's memory is better, so he memorized it in advance.

Because, in the previous interviews, Chen Zhou simply cherished words like gold.

Either it's "good" or it's "okay"...

Unless it is a professional math problem, Chen Zhou will say more.

It will definitely not be as clear and clear as it is today.

For each question, Chen Zhou gave his point of view.

Regarding the content that the media has been exaggerating, Chen Zhou also hopes to return to the mathematical conjecture itself.

Because whether it is the Jebov conjecture or the twin prime conjecture, it is a matter of great significance and an extremely difficult task to be solved.

In contrast, these are the things that should be discussed and valued more.

After the interview, Yao Tongtong looked at Chen Zhou with a strange expression.

Chen Zhou noticed Yao Tongtong's expression in the video, and asked strangely, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Yao Tongtong curled her lips: "I didn't expect that you are so good at talking. In previous interviews, you were simply a topic stopper..."

Chen Zhou was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, but he didn't explain much.

It's not easy to say directly, those questions of yours are too boring, and it will delay my study and research time, right?
It's not like this time, because of the exchange of news and what Chen Zhou wanted to say.

So I said a little more.

But Yao Tongtong obviously didn't think about it so much. She just felt that Chen Zhou was doing it on purpose before, but he just didn't want to say more...

Yao Tongtong was inexplicably sad about this.

Chen Zhou coughed lightly, and changed the topic to Yao Tongtong's previous exchange: "Reporter Yao, now that the interview is over, shouldn't you tell me what's the news?"

Yao Tongtong laughed lightly and said, "Actually, it's just a gossip."

Chen Zhou frowned suddenly: "Gossip?"

Seeing this, Yao Tongtong quickly explained: "Although I said it was gossip, the source is still reliable. You can rest assured about this."

Chen Zhou frowned, thinking that the interview is over anyway, whether it's gossip or not, let's listen first before talking.

So, Chen Zhou said, "Well, I believe in you."

Yao Tongtong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, she didn't come to cheat the interview.

This news was indeed told by a friend of hers.

Her friend is also a reporter who has been stationed in the United States for many years, and the source of the news is absolutely reliable.

Yao Tongtong told Chen Zhou the news from this friend.

After Yao Tongtong finished speaking, Chen Zhou asked with a slightly strange expression: "The Cole Number Theory Award? Isn't this once every three years?"

Yao Tongtong nodded: "Yes, you know about this award?"

Chen Zhou said: "The Cole Prize in Number Theory can be said to be the highest award in the number theory field. It is awarded every three years. The last time it was awarded in 2014, the winner is the Professor Zhang Yitang you just mentioned."

"The reason why Professor Zhang Yitang won the award is because of his pioneering research on the twin prime number conjecture, which opened a door for the research on the twin prime number conjecture."

"Yeah." Yao Tongtong nodded vigorously, "That's it, so you know, so I don't need to explain it to you."

"Anyway, the news that my friend got is that the next Cole Prize in Number Theory, the winner will most likely be you!"

For some reason, when it came to explaining to Chen Zhou, Yao Tongtong unconsciously felt a little guilty.

The Cole Prize in Number Theory and the Cole Prize in Algebra are collectively referred to as the Cole Prize.

Awarded by the American Mathematical Society.

The American Mathematical Society, also known as AMS, was one of the organizers of the last MIT academic conference.

Another sponsor is MAA, which is the American Mathematical Association.

Because it is awarded by the American Mathematical Society, the Cole Award is not completely international.

The American Mathematical Society generally gives priority to members of the society who have made outstanding contributions, and then to mathematicians who have published outstanding articles in American journals.

However, as the influence of the Cole Award has grown, the proportion considered by the American Mathematical Society has also begun to change.

More began to consider mathematicians who had published excellent articles in American journals.

Or to put it bluntly, it is a mathematician who has published papers in the "Annual of Mathematics" and "Journal of the American Mathematical Society".

Because the journals of these two mathematics journals, the second of the four kings, are both from the United States.

As for why the Cole Prize in Number Theory is the highest award in the number theory session, just look at the winners.

There is Professor Langlands who proposed the "Langlands Program", and Professor Wiles who solved the Fermat conjecture...

It can be said that they are all big cows.

Looking only at the conditions of the award, Chen Zhou felt that he might indeed be considered by the award committee.

But according to time, isn't it only 16 years?

And the Cole Prize in Number Theory will be awarded next year?

The Cole Algebra Award, even after entering the 21st century, has become a year later than the Number Theory Award.

Obviously, it is impossible for the Algebra Award and the Number Theory Award to be awarded at the same time.

Where did the news about Yao Tongtong's friend come from?

Yao Tongtong has been looking at Chen Zhou, and when he noticed the expression on Chen Zhou's face, Yao Tongtong guessed what Chen Zhou was thinking.

She then said, "Student Chen Zhou, do you know much about Professor Zhang Yitang?"

Chen Zhou was slightly taken aback, what does this mean?
