The end of technology.

Ning Yu turned his head and glanced at the not-so-spacious bedroom, and suddenly felt that he was not the only one who wanted to live in a single room.

"Come and sit first, the two of you."

"You're welcome, let's go, Professor Duncan."

"There are not enough stools, you should sit on the bed first."

"Okay, we're not the same as Academician Xiao Fan, we don't pay attention to those, and it's the same wherever we sit."

Fan Zhenhua rolled his eyes.

……

When Ning Yu sat back in his seat, he fell silent.

If you don't count the cat that can easily be ignored, there are four mathematicians sitting in the dormitory at this time, there are the older generation, the new generation, the Chinese, the foreigners, and the dead enemies.

The only thing in common is probably that the academic achievements of the four people in mathematics have been widely recognized by the academic community.Gathering together like this, if you don't talk about math problems, it feels a bit wasteful.

It's just that Ning Zhi didn't want to discuss math problems, and he and the three of them couldn't chat anymore.

As for talking about other...

It is inconvenient to talk to Fan Zhenhua and Lu Zhengyue in front of Fan Zhenhua and Lu Zhengyue.

Fan Zhenhua probably didn't want to talk to Lu Zhengyue in front of Dominette about what he wanted to talk to him about.

As for Lu Zhengyue...

Well, this boss probably has nothing serious to do. He can just give up a lot of serious business in Huaqing, and at the age of more than 60, he has applied for a mathematics professor at Yanbei University of Physical Education. What other serious business can he have?

As he said before, he came to teach at the University just to watch Ning Ruo and not be spoiled by Fan Zhenhua.

There is no way, the status of professors in the university is still slightly worse in the academic world, and few people have the confidence to fight with a senior binational academician like Fan Zhenhua.When he came, it was different. Fan Zhenhua had to pass him first if he wanted to dictate the construction of the Mathematics Department of the University.

So it's normal...

There were more people, but instead of being lively, the place became cold. Fortunately, Lao Lu talked a lot.

"Academician Xiao Fan, why are you thinking of coming to our school today? What crooked ideas are you making?" Lu Zhengyue said to Fan Zhenhua in a joking tone.

"Oh, I was afraid that Ning Yu would go the wrong way, so I came over and talked to him. Besides, you don't have to run against me. Now that Yanbei University is cooperating with the University of Physical Education, it's normal for me to come here once in a while?"

"Why are you afraid of going the wrong way? How many times have I told you, can we be human beings, and don't always hide it. To put it bluntly, it's not because the papers published by Ning Zhi in "Nature" did not have any signatures. Is it the name of Peking University? It’s easy to solve this matter, don’t you have the ability? Why don’t you just ask Yanbei University to support a physics department in our university, and let Ning Wei apply for a double major? "

Lu Zhengyue patted her thigh and said, and when she arrived, she did not forget to say very seriously: "At that time, we will sign the contract according to the previous contract. The signature of the unit must let the Department of Physics of Yanbei University be in front of Yanbei Sports University. You can rest assured. , as long as you can handle your physics department, I will help you convince Ning Yu and Lao Chen, you can seize this opportunity!"

Fan Zhenhua glanced at Lu Zhengyue angrily.

At first, he really wanted to discuss the issue of unit signature with Ning Ruo, but now the problem is unit signature?

Dominette Duncan clearly felt that the relationship between the two old people was not right, but he didn't understand Chinese, so he could only look at the two of them blankly, and he couldn't understand what they were talking about, which was quite embarrassing.

Ning Ruo keenly noticed this, sighed in the bottom of his heart, and then said to the writer who was selected in March, gently in English: "Professor Duncan, Academician Fan and Academician Lu are just joking."

Showing a mild attitude is just because Ning Ruo still has some sympathy for this Harvard professor.In any case, Dominette was tricked by the cat after all.The price to be paid in the future is indeed high.

If everyone can negotiate well and do it willingly, it will be fine.If he really went to the last step of March's design, Ning Ruo could feel how much this guy would want to die at that time.

"Oh, it's okay, I asked some Huaxia friends before I came, and they said that sometimes the way of expressing friendship between good friends in Huaxia makes us feel strange. In your words - phase, love, phase, kill? Probably Is that what you said?"

Dominette Duncan replied with a good attitude, and even uttered four Chinese words, although the pronunciation was a little weird.In short, the performance was completely different from the first day and when he met Ning Ruo.

This probably also shows that most of the purpose of the operation on that day in March was achieved.At least the professor is no longer as arrogant as he was when they first met.The two bosses finally realized that today was not the right time for them to quarrel, looked at each other, and then turned to Dominite at the same time.

"Professor Duncan, I specifically asked, this exchange between Harvard and the University is only for one year. To be honest, I think it is too short. It is better to stay for four years. You young generation of math geniuses should have more exchanges with each other. , it's good for both of you."

Lu Zhengyue didn't care how outrageous Dominite's comment about falling in love with each other was, and took the initiative to chat with the Harvard professor.Both Lu Zhengyue and Fan Zhenhua have experience of studying abroad, and they can also become academicians of many countries. Naturally, their English proficiency is not necessary.Even purely speaking, he is more skilled than Ning Ruo.

And Ning Ruo likes this topic that Lu Zhengyue brought up.

After all, from a human point of view, he doesn't actually want to go to the last step that March said.

Dominette Duncan shrugged and said: "Actually, I was planning to resign from Harvard before I came here, but President Summers rejected my resignation letter, and this is the reason for this exchange. From my personal point of view , I don't mind staying in Huaxia for a while."

This answer obviously made both academicians interested, Fan Zhenhua pondered for a moment and said: "Professor Duncan, if you really have this idea, I don't think you should just stay on the side of the university. You should also know that for the time being. There is only one student in the Mathematics Department of the University of Physical Education, Ning Zhi, and there is definitely not too much work in normal times. You can take a course in the School of Mathematics of Yanbei University, and the salary can be based on your annual salary at Harvard. I didn’t discuss this with you before, mainly because of a Years are indeed too short.”

Hearing this proposal, Dominite raised his eyebrows.In fact, I was slightly moved.

It's not just to covet the salary given by Yanbei University.In fact, since it was rumored last year in the mathematics community that he was almost certain to win the 2018 Fields Medal, he has been invited to give academic lectures around the world every year and the money he gets has been equal to his annual salary at Harvard.

This is also the reason why he dared to resign arbitrarily.

While the Fields Medal isn't much, the title itself is a huge asset.In addition, he is still young, the future has infinite possibilities, and he will be popular no matter where he goes.

The reason Dominette was moved was simply because after reading what Ning Ruo casually wrote on the manuscript paper, he felt that there was no need to stare at Ning Ruo every day at the university.Totally unnecessary.

From his point of view, it was a very sudden decision to come to Ning Ruo without saying hello to anyone at all.So of course Ning Ruo couldn't deliberately put the fake manuscript paper on the writing table.

Of course, the content on the manuscript paper cannot be faked, after all, there are a bunch of formulas that have not yet appeared in the academic world of this world.

So he was convinced, completely convinced.So the original purpose of his trip to China this time has become a joke.If he left directly, he wouldn't be ashamed, and he really hoped to have more face-to-face communication with Ning Yu during this time.

In this case, going to Yanbei University to teach is a good choice, at least better than staying at Yanbei Sports University every day.It will not be so embarrassing to recall this time in the future.Not to mention that Ning Zhi's performance made him subconsciously want to regain some confidence in ordinary undergraduate students in Huaxia.

The only problem is probably the issue of exchanging for a few years, which is not something he can decide at all.

"Thank you for your invitation, Professor Fan. I will take the time to ask if the school can extend the communication time. If Harvard agrees, I will be happy to teach at Yanbei University for a while."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Ning Yu suddenly felt that she understood why March had asked Fan Zhenhua to meet Dominette Duncan.

As for Lu Zhengyue...

That was probably just a coincidence.

So, without waiting for Lu Zhengyue, who was unhappy, to speak, Ning Yu took the lead and looked at Fan Zhenhua and said seriously: "Professor Fan, in fact, I think you don't have to worry about the issue of exchanging for a few years, even if Professor Duncan can only stay in China for one year. A special course can be offered at Yanbei University. For example, an elective one-year course can be offered first. The credits can even be set higher.”

After finishing speaking, Ning Yu looked at Dominette and said meaningfully: "Of course, you need to prepare the courseware for the class by yourself, Professor Duncan. I believe that with your ability, you will definitely not let the students who trust you waste a year of time. ,Right?"

"Oh?" Fan Zhenhua was stunned after listening to Ning Yu's words. With a thoughtful expression on his face, he looked at Dominette and asked, "What about Professor Duncan's opinion?"

Dominette Duncan smiled and said, "Since Ning has said so, I have no problem. At present, I mainly teach discrete mathematics to undergraduates at Harvard University, usually two classes a week. If this is also arranged here, I happen to have ready-made courseware. If it does not conflict with your course, I just need to modify it a little according to the specific class time. But I can’t speak Chinese, so I can only teach in English.”

Fan Zhenhua said happily: "This is no problem, discrete mathematics can be arranged as an elective in the sophomore year. The English listening level of the sophomore students in the mathematics department can basically pass the test, and they are accustomed to using all English teaching in some courses. And it is an elective course. , it will indicate that all teaching is in English, and those who do not have enough language skills will not be selected. In addition to classes, you need to spend half a day in the office of Yanbei University every week to answer questions for students. This should be no problem. Bar?"

Fan Zhenhua is of course happy to invite a prospective Fields Medal scholar to teach undergraduates at the school for a year.

Dominette Duncan nodded and said, "Of course it can. In fact, in order to improve the quality of teaching, there are the same requirements for substitute professors at Harvard University. We call it Q&A Day."

Fan Zhenhua smiled and said, "That's settled, you can send me the courseware later, and I will ask the teaching assistant to check out the learning progress and content of the course for the students who have chosen the course, and then send it to the students who signed up for the course. Student. By the way, do you have any special requirements for teaching assistants?"

Dominette Duncan shook his head and said, "No, as long as there is good communication."

Seeing the two of you saying one sentence and one sentence and one sentence confirming that Dominette Duncan went to teach at Yanbei University, Lu Zhengyue was unhappy.

However, when he wanted to open his mouth again, Ning Ruo suddenly said again, "Actually, I specially invited Professor Duncan to come here today because I have something to talk to him about."

This is directly chasing people.

Looking at Fan Zhenhua's proud look, Lu Zhengyue also felt a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat.

Probably aware of Lu Zhengyue's unhappiness, Ning Yu looked at the old academician, smiled, and explained in a rare way: "There are indeed some important things to talk about with Professor Duncan. You will teach at the University of Sports in the future. There are many opportunities to meet, and next time I have time, I will invite you to dinner."

In one sentence, Lu Zhengyue's mood instantly brightened.

After all, everyone knew each other very well, and he had never heard of Ning Ruo taking the initiative to invite someone to dinner.

For example, Fan Zhenhua has actually done a lot for Ning Ruo, but did Ning Ruo say he wanted to invite him to dinner?

"Well, I said Xiao Fan, why are you staying here? The young people have serious business to talk about." Lu Zhengyue glanced at Fan Zhenhua and said.

Fan Zhenhua was also worried for a while.

He was not jealous that Ning Zhi said he wanted to invite Lu Zhengyue to dinner, but that although he had discussed with Dominette about going to Yanbei University to teach, but the business he wanted to talk to Ning Zhi had no results. Usually very busy, there are a lot of things to deal with in the yard, it is impossible to run to the body at any time, and I am naturally stuffy.

But seeing that Lu Zhengyue and Dominette Duncan are both there, today is indeed not a good opportunity, so I can only shake my head and give up temporarily.

"Okay, I won't interrupt your conversation today. I'll find time next time to have a good talk." Fan Zhenhua looked at Ning Ruo and said.

Ning Ruo didn't say a word. He knew what Fan Zhenhua wanted to talk to him about, but it just so happened that he didn't want to talk much about it.

"Okay, you're the only one talking nonsense." Lu Zhengyue glared at Fan Zhenhua and said.

When the two walked to the door, Fan Zhenhua suddenly stopped again, turned his head and asked Ning Ruo, "Hey, Ning Ruo, I suddenly thought of the day after tomorrow that our Yanbei University will have a welcome party, are you interested in going to see it? The children of Peking University are still very talented.”

Ning Yu thought for a while, and finally shook his head and said, "No, I have something to do here too."

Fan Zhenhua shook his head regretfully, and could only walk out of the room under Lu Zhengyue's contemptuous eyes.

……

After closing the door, the two walked out of the doctor's building. Before Lu Zhengyue could speak sarcastically, Fan Zhenhua asked with a sullen face: "Old Lu, you must fight against me, right? You thought I was just for that natural thesis. Did you sign up for Yanbei University? Have you checked out the situation? Many laboratories in Ning Yu's paper failed when they tried to reproduce it, do you know that?"

Lu Zhengyue glanced at Fan Zhenhua and said disdainfully, "Do you really think that you are so popular that all China only recognizes you as Academician Fan? Over the past two days, people have called me to tell me about this situation, but so what? Didn't Ning Yu send them back an email, telling them not to think about repeating this experiment for the time being? What's the point? As for foreign countries, they can do it if they want, and no one is forcing them to do it if they don't want to do it?"

Fan Zhenhua was stunned by Lu Zhengyue's indifferent attitude, and said sharply, "Lu Zhengyue, what did you say? What about this? This may involve academic fraud! You want Ning Yu to take the Fields Medal under such a name in the future. ?"

Lu Zhengyue looked at Fan Zhenhua's frantic appearance, and said with joy, "Oh, you really treat Ning Yu as your student? Come, tell me where the academic fraud is? Have you seen the paper? You have the video of the test process. Have you seen it? If you can't reproduce it, it's an academic fraud? Then you have to break it up. If you want me to say, we people are brainwashed by those people in the west, and we take some things too seriously. Look at Ning Yuxiang Is it someone who cares about this kind of thing?"

Fan Zhenhua angrily said, "What does it mean to be brainwashed? It's not a good thing whether it's east or west! Don't confuse people here!"

Lu Zhengyue said with a sneer: "Yo, it's starting to seize the moral commanding heights? Xiao Fan, think carefully about what kind of person Ning Yu is. Is he stupid? Is he sick? He is the kind of person who doesn't know what he wants. Is he a reckless person? Does he not know what a physical test can't represent? Not to mention that it is an experiment with such a simple process! Use your brain, for example, if you think about why he didn't go to Yanbei University, he must Are you big?"

Fan Zhenhua suddenly did not know how to refute.

However, Lu Zhengyue did not let Fan Zhenhua go, and continued: "He chose to publish this paper suddenly on Nature, and he received a lot of emails asking for details of the experiment. He even replied to these emails specifically. You don't think he knows himself. What are you doing? Let me tell you, young people these days are sober, they know what they want. Do you think it's the same as when we were young?"

Fan Zhenhua frowned, looked at Lu Zhengyue and asked, "Old Lu, do you know something? Have you talked to Ning Ruo?"

Lu Zhengyue showed a smile, stretched out his hand, patted Fan Zhenhua's shoulder, and said, "Not really, I'm too big, and my students still need to get Huaqing graduation certificate, there are a lot of things to deal with, how can there be anything? Air traffic control this nosy? No, I just came here today and was run off again. I'm talking shit! But I believe in one truth for the rest of my life. I can share it with you today."

Fan Zhenhua raised his hand and directly waved Lu Zhengyue's hand away, and said impatiently, "Don't give a shit, hurry up if you want to say something."

"Haha, when a smart person recognized by the whole world suddenly does something that everyone thinks is very stupid, who is more stupid is better to let time test, because what we have seen and heard now But it may not be the truth. The most wonderful thing in the three-dimensional world is that something has already happened. The impression can be different before, during and after the event. Good causes may not necessarily have good effects, and the same is true for bad causes. It doesn't have to be all evil!"

After hearing Lu Zhengyue's remarks, Fan Zhenhua was stunned, and the words that Ning Ruo had just started flashing back in his mind, and he suddenly felt that he was probably really worrying.In fact, after thinking about it carefully, Ning Yu really belongs to the kind of young man who understands what he wants and is young and mature.

So he sighed and said, "Hey... Maybe you're right this time, I hope I'm just worrying about it."

Lu Zhengyue said disdainfully: "No possibility, I'm definitely right this time, you're just worrying!"

Fan Zhenhua: "..."

……

In the room, Ning Yu watched the two old academicians leave together, and then turned his attention to Dominette Duncan, thinking about how to talk about this topic.Dominette Duncan didn't say a word, probably because he was still a little uneasy.

After a long time, when Ning Yu found out that talking in circles was not what he was good at, he simply said directly: "I have a hidden camera installed in my room, which works 24 hours a day."

The moment he heard this sentence, Dominite's face began to turn pale, and then his eyes began to evade...

After all, that thing was not glorious.

Looking at Dominette's reaction, Ning Yu continued: "There are some inconvenient academic content in my manuscript paper. I hope you can immediately delete those photos you took in front of me."

"I……"

Dominette Duncan regretted that he did not directly extract all the contents of the photo at that time.It's habit.

He likes to solve one problem before focusing on the second one.

These days, all his energy is on the general formula of series, and he doesn't care about other photos.

But it was too late to say anything at this time. Dominette Duncan didn't even have the strength to argue, so he could only silently take out his phone. After unlocking it, he began to delete the photos he took in front of Ning Ruo, and then put it in the trash. delete these photos.

In fact, Ning Zhi didn't care about this process.

Since March said that it can monitor Dominite's mobile phone and ensure that important formulas will not be leaked by this guy at will, there are naturally ways to ensure the safety of important formulas.

These rhetoric are nothing more than allowing Dominette to be mentally prepared for the worst outcome in advance.

"Okay, I deleted them all, but there is one thing I want to explain. I didn't want to come in at that time, but the door was unlocked, and I heard another cat meow..."

Well, Dominette keeps talking more and more quietly...

After all, he himself knew that this explanation was untenable. The fact that the owner did not lock the door did not mean that other unrelated people could enter the door at will.

"It's useless to say these things now. Things have already happened. But if you are interested in the content of my calculation manuscript, maybe we can discuss some academic issues from time to time. It's just that I have one condition." The cat's explanation said.

"Oh? What conditions?" Dominite Duncan asked resignedly.

Ning Ruo replied directly: "I hope someone can help me sort out some academic ideas and record them step by step in a way that is easier for people to understand. This matter just requires a person to understand multiple mathematical levels. The knowledge has a relatively in-depth understanding, and there is enough time for mathematicians to complete it. I think if there are only two classes a week in Yanbei University, there should be enough time to do this. But I only accept face-to-face Communicate, as it is now."

Dominite hesitated slightly, but in fact, he didn't particularly resist the matter raised by Ning Ruo.

In fact, no mathematician can resist the temptation to decipher new formulas that seem to be fantastic.

Not to mention that the formulas and problem-solving ideas used on Ning's manuscript paper are extremely practical.
