Chapter 198 Charge
Zhou Wenping felt that his usually clear mind was almost shaken into a pulp by the shock. It was not until he watched Wu Tong say goodbye and leave that he finally came to his senses after a long time.
Pick up the phone and dial.
"Pan Yuan!"
Even through the phone line, Pan Wenhua could feel Zhou Wenping's excitement and couldn't help but admonish him, "Wenping, take it easy, take it easy, be careful of your heart and blood vessels!"
After all, he is almost 50 years old, not as young and strong as before, so he needs to take precautions. Before, they knew someone who burst a blood vessel in a fit of excitement. Although he was saved in time, he was left with some hemiplegia, and his research career ended here, which was a pity.
"I'm taking it easy!" Zhou Wenping took several deep breaths. Facing such shocking news, his reaction was restrained enough. "Dean Pan, Wu Tong said that in about two weeks, we can solve the Goldbach conjecture!"
"What?" Pan Wenhua stood up suddenly, thinking he had heard it wrongly.
Zhou Wenping smiled and repeated: "Wu Tong said that she expects to solve the Goldbach conjecture within two weeks!"
If an ordinary person said this to them, they would have told that person to go away and calm down.
But when the person who said this is Wu Tong, then everything is possible!
Wu Tong never boasted, and her motto was to keep her word and fulfill her promise. The amazing achievements before were the best proof of her. "Wu Tong said that she had developed a tool to defeat Gecai, and the Dragon Slaying Sword was completed. Now she is back in the dormitory to retreat and make all-out efforts to defeat Gecai!"
"Director Pan, you should take it easy!" Zhou Wenping had already slowed down his speech when he reported, for fear of alarming the elderly leader. Now, it was his turn to worry, asking Director Pan not to get too excited, which would increase the risk of a blood vessel bursting.
"We all have to take good care of ourselves and wait for Wu Tong to produce the results. We can slowly savor them. We are not excited. We should take good care of ourselves and watch Wu Tong create even greater miracles in the future. Aren't you looking forward to Wu Tong solving the millennium problem?"
"Looking forward to it, looking forward to it. I must keep my body in good shape and live another ten or twenty years, waiting to see our Chinese miracle!" Pan Wenhua, like Zhou Wenping, took a deep breath to restrain his rising excitement, his heart full of anticipation.
"Don't tell anyone yet. Wait until Wu Tong releases the real results!" Although they were sure that Wu Tong could overcome Ge Guess, research was not always smooth sailing after all. The two days of delay were for important matters. They couldn't let others know that Wu Tong was arrogant.
When Wu Tong can really prove the result and confirm it is correct, he can tell others about it, then it will be a good story. As teachers, they can't guide Wu Tong in academic matters, so they still have to keep a close eye on these trivial matters.
"Okay, Dean Pan, at the moment, only you and I know!"
····
Wu Tong packed up his manuscript and went back to the dormitory. An Wenshu was attentive and saw that Wu Tong was different from usual today, so she smiled and greeted him.
"Thank you, Sister An, for taking care of me these days!" Although Wu Tong has been immersed in her own state, she is not without any perception of the outside world.
"It's not hard, your research is important!" This is her responsibility.
She was considered educated in the department, but if she was asked to look at those math problems, they were still like incomprehensible books to her. As the person who protected Wu Tong the most, she understood better than outsiders how amazing each of Wu Tong's achievements was. Therefore, carefulness was a necessary quality.
Doing a good job of taking care of Wu Tong is a credit.
"I will be in seclusion for the next two weeks to do the final research. I will probably stay in the dormitory the whole time and won't go out!" Wu Tong told An Wenshu in advance. If she doesn't go out of the dormitory, An Wenshu can also relax and have a rest.
Under the guidance of Secretary An Wen, she is preparing to manage Wu Tong's three meals a day. When Wu Tong is busy, it is Wu Tong's effort to solve the difficult problems, and it is her job to provide good logistical support.
After greeting all parties, Wu Tong took a long rest for the night and did morning exercises before she began her final research on the Goldbach conjecture.
If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. Now that the tools are ready, we just need to get to the core.
Although, she is currently only standing at the foot of Mount Everest in Kochai, the distance to the top of the mountain seems out of reach.
However, Wu Tong is full of confidence in himself.
After working on multiple projects and subjects, Wu Tong is no longer the ignorant child who proved Zhou's conjecture for the first time. Her abundant knowledge reserves have built her strong confidence. Having led multiple projects has made her beliefs more mature and confident, as solid as a rock.
If you understand, you understand. It's just like the opening of the eight extraordinary meridians in novels and biographies, the sudden enlightenment in martial arts novels, and the sudden enlightenment in immortal novels. That feeling is hard to describe in words.
To put it in one sentence, the time is ripe and there is no need to wait for the right time.
She believes that many of her predecessors had the same unwavering belief as her.
For example, when Mr. Deligne proved the Weil conjecture, and when Mr. Andrew Wiles launched his attack on Fermat's Last Theorem, they all had such conviction.
If you don't even have faith in yourself, you won't be able to accomplish anything.
Finally, she was going to top off the mathematical building for Gecai with her own hands. Wu Tong was not proud or complacent. Instead, she was more serious and cautious. She approached this final challenge with an open mind and the utmost caution, feeling honored.
The pen came, and the replacement refill was at hand. He directly opened a new stack of draft paper and put it on the corner of the table for use. Everything was ready, Wu Tong picked up the pen like a knife, and began to deduce firmly.
With her thoughts flowing smoothly, Wu Tong once again entered the special state she had before, continuing to tackle the problems that came naturally. All the difficulties she encountered along the way were turned into steps to help her move forward under her hands.
Step by step, from the foot of Mount Everest in Kochai to the mountainside, and then to the final charge to the top of the mountain.
··············
"Hi, Zhou, why haven't I heard from our Little Sun of the East recently?" On a spring afternoon, with the sun warm and gentle, Zhou Wenping was in his office when he received a long-distance call from across the sea.
There has been little excitement in the mathematics world recently. One wonders whether everyone is digesting the new achievements of the past year, or accumulating strength and quietly working on some difficult problems. Andrew Wiles feels that he is a little bored and lonely recently, and is even considering quitting his job at Princeton and accepting an invitation from his home country to return to Oxford University to teach.
Chinese people believe in returning to one's roots. After being away from England for a long time, he really missed the foggy city that he once complained about. A wandering prodigal son always has to return home. He has reached an age where he can enjoy his retirement life.
There were no new voices in the mathematics world, and he couldn't help but miss the feeling of being shocked by Wu Tong's miracles several times last year.
