Zhuang Weiran took out his mobile phone, it was called by senior brother Cheng Qiu.

He pressed the answer button, "Brother, what's the matter?"

"How is your brother doing at Princeton University?" Cheng Qiu looked extremely happy on the other end of the phone, and Zhuang Weiran said jokingly, "Senior brother, are you in a relationship? Are you so happy?"

"What are you thinking about?" Cheng Qiu sneered, "You are not big, but you can think wildly."

"Junior brother, it's like this. I went online today and saw that the government of Thief sent an apology letter, and said it had been sent to you." Cheng Qiu paused for a moment, then continued, "I heard that there is a letter of apology from Thief. Your affairs have been banned, which means that no one will continue to discuss your problem. Finally, the government of the country of stealing guarantees that you will not be harassed during your participation in the International Congress of Mathematicians."

"Oh." Zhuang Weiran said indifferently, "If that's the case, then I'll go to the International Congress of Mathematicians."

"Nonsense." Cheng Qiu said hastily, "Don't you dare to go, do you believe that the professor can catch up with the Lighthouse Country for education? You are very likely to win the Fields Award."

"If you don't attend the International Congress of Mathematicians at this time, you are simply..." Cheng Qiu couldn't find a word to describe Zhuang Weiran's behavior in not attending the International Congress of Mathematicians.Anyway, he has never seen such a precedent. He obviously knew that he could win the Fields Medal, so he didn't participate? !

"Don't worry, brother." Zhuang Weiran turned on the computer, "I will go to participate, since the stealing government has apologized to me, if I don't show face, it will really be a diplomatic accident."

"It's good that you know." Cheng Qiu said excitedly on the other end of the phone, "Remember to come back with a Fields Medal. From now on, as the brother who won the Fields Medal, I will also have face."

"You are so beautiful." Zhuang Weiran was amused, he and Cheng Qiu are very familiar, and sometimes they talk in a non-trivial or serious way.

This is the way of speaking between brothers and sisters, and there is nothing wrong with it.

"You kid, I'm an associate professor at Princeton University." Cheng Qiu sighed, "I'm still an assistant professor at Peking University. Why do you think the gap between people is so big?"

"Brother, just be content. You are a Ph.D. graduate from Beijing University, the pride of heaven. In the future, there will definitely be a place for you in the mathematics world of Huaguo."

"Come on." Cheng Qiu said with a whimper, "Don't put a high hat on me, if you say that you have a place in Huaguo's mathematics circle, you already have a good position by now. Unfortunately, some people, just Thinking about going to the Holy Land of Mathematics, if you don't leave Beijing University, I'm afraid you will already be the leader of the younger generation of Mathematics in Huaguo."

"That is to say, I shouldn't actually go abroad?" Zhuang Weiran was not interested in being the leader of the younger generation in Huaguo, but when Cheng Qiu said this, he naturally had to answer Cheng Qiu.

"Of course, if you don't go abroad, maybe I can follow behind you to gain your popularity. It's better than being so tired now."

"Brother, guess what will happen if the professor knows what you said?"

"Don't talk nonsense, if the professor knows, it's okay." Cheng Qiu thought of Professor Tao's dark face, especially when he treated him, and shuddered.

"Okay." Zhuang Weiran said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't tell the professor about these things, but you should also pay attention, don't speak out and say everything. If the word spreads to In the ears of the professor, I think you may not be able to stay at Peking University. What's more, I heard that you are going to join the International Research Center for Mathematics at Peking University, so I probably have no chance."

"That's right, the professor is also one of the professors of the International Research Center for Mathematics of Peking University." Cheng Qiu sighed, "I have no choice. There are so many people vying for this one place. Seriously, junior brother If you don't leave, you are probably already a senior researcher at the International Research Center for Mathematics of Peking University, and you will be promoted to professor in a short time."

"However, I guess you should be pretty good at Princeton University." Cheng Qiu paused, "You should also pay attention to juniors there. Juniors are still young, and they have already produced many people who will never be able to leave in their lifetime. The results. This research ability is enough to show the strength of the younger brother, and I believe that the research ability of the younger brother will definitely be stronger in the future than it is now."

"Princeton University, I'm sure I want my junior to stay in school for the rest of my life. I feel that my junior is a movable type signboard." Cheng Qiu sighed, "If I have half the strength of my junior, I might wake up laughing when I sleep."

"Brother, don't shiver at me." Zhuang Weiran has already opened arxiv, ready to start browsing.

"It should be evening over there, right?" Cheng Qiu said with concern, "You'd better go to bed early, I heard you have class tomorrow? What are you teaching?"

"Analytic Number Theory." Zhuang Weiran replied, "It just so happens that I have already submitted the subject, and it is estimated that in the second half of the year, I will accept some graduate students."

"As soon as you arrive at Princeton University, you will be an associate professor. There is no one with this kind of treatment." Cheng Qiu said in amazement. They are rushing to get you."

Cheng Qiu was very curious, "Hey, Xiao Zhuang, let me ask you a more personal question."

"Brother, tell me."

"Which college do you want to go to in the future?"

"Let's talk about it when the time comes." Zhuang Weiran really hasn't figured out which university he wants to go to right now, maybe he can go directly to the research institute instead of teaching in a university.

"That's right, a talent like you can go directly to the research institute to become a professor. After all, a boss like you is probably a professor at Princeton University in a few years, and there will be no problem returning to China to become a professor at the research institute." Yes. Junior brother, I have already seen your future path, I can only say, don’t be rich, don’t forget each other!"

"That's enough." Zhuang Weiran paused for a moment, as if he was concentrating on a document.He said to Cheng Qiu on the phone, "Senior brother, let's stop talking now, I'm looking for information on number theory. You know my current subject is quite difficult."

As a senior brother, Cheng Qiu must know that Zhuang Weiran's current subject is the weak Goldbach's conjecture.This topic is not only difficult, but almost no one touches this topic.Of course, it doesn't mean that no one will study it. There are still many people doing research related to the weak Goldbach's conjecture.

But weak Goldbach conjectures that no one will do this subject.Just kidding, not everyone has the research ability and confidence to solve the problems that have plagued the mathematics community for many years.

"By the way, brother, let me tell you something."

"Hey, there must be something good for the younger brother." Listening to Zhuang Weiran's brisk tone on the phone, he dared to bet that there must be something good for Zhuang Weiran.

"It's a good thing." Zhuang Weiran paused, "I saw Viscount Deligne yesterday."

"Viscount Deligne, tsk tsk, I remember he is also a professor at Princeton University, how does it feel to be with so many big men?"

"It's great." Zhuang Weiran said happily, "Not only the professors of Princeton University, but also the professors of the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, I also met."

"For example, Professor Selberg, Professor Feffman, etc."

"They're all masters." Cheng Qiu's expression also showed a hint of fascination. As a doctor in the Department of Mathematics, if he can chat with these first-rate masters, he doesn't know how much he can learn.Who doesn't want to advance in mathematics?As long as you have a little aggressiveness in mathematics and want to go further in mathematics, chatting with the big guys will be of great help to your understanding of mathematics.

Cheng Qiu learned a lot from Professor Tao when he was a Ph.D. student with Professor Tao.This is what Daniel can bring to students, which is different from ordinary professors.Because Daniel himself is the top group in the industry, their vision is very high.As a student, I spend a lot of time with my mentor, whether it's working on projects or asking questions.Big cows often teach students some knowledge that cannot be learned from other professors.

Therefore, more students are willing to become Daniel's disciples, and it is precisely because of this that Daniel's student quota has been very tight.

Not to mention, the world's top experts in mathematics.It is estimated that Cheng Qiu was in front of them, and they would not even look at him, but Junior Brother Zhuang was able to talk to so many big cows.Thinking about that scene made Cheng Qiu very excited.

If you don't give face in the industry, you still won't give face.Are you kidding me, they are big names in the industry, the top group of people in an industry.

No matter how much money Cheng Qiu's family has, the big cows will not look at him.

Unless he is like Zhuang Weiran, a genius boy.The big cows must be very happy to talk to him, as if Junior Brother Zhuang can chat and laugh with the big cows.His requirements are not high, and Cheng Qiu dare not dream of such a top-level bull in the world.Being able to listen to Professor Tao's teachings from time to time has made him very content.

Although, sometimes he would complain to his younger brother that the professor treated him differently from his younger brother.But it doesn't hinder him, he really respects Professor Tao very much.

Perhaps internationally, Professor Tao is not the best.But in China, in Professor Tao's age group, there is no doubt that Professor Tao is the top-level big cow.

Otherwise, Professor Tao would not take on one project after another. In a country where there are many monks and few porridge, Professor Tao can be regarded as a very nourishing mathematics professor.

"I really envy you, junior brother. You can talk about mathematics with so many big cows. You have learned a lot. If I can talk with so many big cows, I am willing to do anything." Cheng Qiu was very emotional. Junior brother really talked to him It's not the same, he probably belongs to a relatively ordinary doctor of mathematics.As for the younger brother, genius is not enough to describe him.

No wonder he was still so popular after he got to Princeton University, no less than when he was at Peking University.

"Actually, Viscount Deligne told me one thing." Zhuang Weiran's voice was a little excited.
