Chapter 92 Encounter with Wu Yiyang

"Thank you, teacher!" Su Yi was full of gratitude.

If it were another professor, after hearing what he said, they might be angry and expel her directly from the school, but Professor Zhang Yuan did not do that. Even though he did not agree, he was willing to support her.

"This academic exchange meeting will have professors from other countries, and it's not limited to mathematics. There are also other subjects such as physics, biology, biotechnology... If you are interested, you can take some time to attend other lectures." Professor Zhang Yuan remembered the little girl's previous ambitions and reminded her.

"good."

After putting on his work badge, Su Yi followed Professor Zhang Yuan obediently and walked into the venue with him and other mathematics professors.

Different academic exchanges were held in different lecture halls. It was Su Yi's first time to attend such an important occasion. Even though he appeared calm on the surface, he was still quite nervous.

As an internationally renowned mathematician, Professor Zhang Yuan naturally sat in the guest of honor seat. Su Yi sat not far behind him and listened very attentively.

The lecture discussed the seven major mathematical problems of the millennium, which are the lifelong dreams of every mathematician today, and talked about the current progress of each mathematical difficulty.

It was not until the lecture ended that Su Yi realized how quickly time had passed.

Not only her, but even 222 recorded the content of the meeting. In its words, the system also needs to learn and it needs to fill its knowledge base.

With the plug-in 222, Su Yi does not worry about not being able to remember the content of the lecture. On the contrary, 222 will organize the content and send it to the host, and this does not charge points.

When they went to have dinner, Professor Zhang Yuan started communicating with the professor from Country D. Professor Zhang Yuan spoke fluent English, while the other party brought an interpreter with him. Occasionally, when he spoke English himself, he also had a very special Country D accent.

Professor Zhang Yuan naturally had a translator by his side, whose surname was Chen. Su Yi chatted with him for a few sentences and found that he could speak at least four foreign languages and was currently learning a fifth language by himself.

Su Yi asked the other party some language-related questions, and translator Chen patiently explained a lot to her and even recommended some books and several learning websites to her.

But in the restaurant, Su Yi unexpectedly met Wu Yiyang.

"Su Yi?" Wu Yiyang looked at her in surprise.

"Teacher Wu?"

"Hello, Professor Zhang." Wu Yiyang seemed to know Professor Zhang Yuan and greeted him.

Zhang Yuan was a little surprised: "Do you know each other?"

"Teacher Wu was my physics teacher in junior high school." Su Yi explained.

"So, this little girl is the student you asked me to give you information for before?" The professor standing next to Wu Yiyang also spoke.

Wu Yiyang nodded.

Soon, both sides knew what happened between the two juniors.

Professor Wu looked at Su Yi with a hint of surprise. "Old Zhang, since you accepted her as your disciple, she must be very talented. I was thinking that if the little girl really had the physics talent my son said, I would let her apply to the Physics Department of University A."

Professor Wu is a professor in the Department of Physics at University A.

"There are still two years left, and the child doesn't agree to be recommended for admission and wants to take the college entrance exam. She might change her mind in the next two years," Zhang Yuan said with a smile. "Besides, she does have a good aptitude for physics. She'll definitely need your advice as she prepares for the CPhO exam this year."

Professor Wu also smiled: "Okay, I'm also looking forward to this little girl's performance."

The afternoon exchange meeting was no longer a simple lecture, but included questions and discussions. Then, the representative of the mathematics team from Country R suddenly stated that they had completely filled the gaps in the details of Gregory's paper proving the Poincare conjecture, and announced that they had begun research on the Goldbach conjecture.

In an instant, the entire lecture hall was in an uproar.

Su Yi frowned slightly. If this was true, then it would be a bit troublesome. Their paper was based on a certain loophole and extended another method of proving the solution to the problem.

"Don't be anxious, just listen to what they say." Professor Zhang Yuan whispered to Su Yi.

Su Yi listened patiently, but as he listened, the tension in his heart gradually disappeared.

Although the detailed loopholes in Country R's so-called complete proof paper seem to have been sorted out, in fact, there are logical problems in their proof itself. It is just because the loopholes are relatively subtle and confusing that they seem very reasonable at first glance.

If Su Yi had not carefully studied Gregory's paper, he would have thought that it was just as the R country mathematics group said.

But in mathematics, existence does not necessarily mean rationality, and there must be rigorous proof steps.

Su Yi discussed this issue in a low voice with Professor Zhang Yuan, and Professor Zhang Yuan was the first to discover the other party's mistake.

"There will be a question-and-answer session later, Su Yi, so prepare well." Zhang Yuan smiled encouragingly at her. "Don't be nervous. Just treat it as a normal discussion. I'll remind you if there are any questions."
