"Riemann hypothesis." Looking at Li Siyuan's anxious face, Yu Qi only said this word, his tone weak and frustrated.
Li Siyuan's face turned pale in an instant, he couldn't believe it, "How could it be? How... could it be..." He was so shocked that he could hardly utter a coherent word.
He was a mathematician and naturally knew what the Riemann hypothesis was, but he had never thought that this word would appear here, and in their Chinese team.
The two were in great shock and did not notice that Su Qingyun on the stage was slowly telling something. Her tone was neither fast nor slow, with occasional pauses. While she was speaking, she was writing something on the blackboard.
The translator standing next to her saw this oriental face and thought that her job was back. However, when Su Qingyun opened her mouth, she spoke fluent English, even with a more standard pronunciation than hers.
His voice suddenly became hoarse. Good, he was not needed.
The judges were a little disappointed when they heard Su Qingyun mention the Riemann hypothesis. They were indeed looking forward to Su Qingyun's performance and thought she would have a good performance in this part, but they didn't expect that she would draw the most difficult question they had prepared.
They do not think that the difficulty of these questions and the ease of others are unfair to the contestants. Drawing lots is a fair way of doing things. The difficulty of the questions drawn also represents opportunities to a certain extent. Even if the questions are difficult, as long as they are explained properly, the scores will naturally be high. Their judging panel has its own set of judging criteria, and they do not just calculate according to the difficulty of the questions.
However, their disappointment with Su Qingyun only lasted for a short time, because they found that even though she drew the Riemann hypothesis, the Chinese girl's expression remained calm. When she started to talk about it, all the judges were shocked.
Because they found that she was not just saying irrelevant things to get some points. What she said seemed to be a proof of the Riemann hypothesis.
After realizing this, the expressions of all the judges changed. They leaned forward, wishing they could get right next to Su Qingyun to listen, and their eyes were fixed on what Su Qingyun wrote on the blackboard.
Stevens quickly grabbed a notebook and began to write and draw on it, following Su Qingyun's thoughts. Lambert's mouth opened wide, his eyes wide. Kunnier's body trembled uncontrollably, and he looked at Su Qingyun with surprise. Mr. Wade's face was complicated...
Looking at the judges' faces that were so shocked that they had lost control of their expressions, the media reporter who was filming nearby seemed to realize something. He quickly asked the camera to move in a close-up and record Su Qingyun's explanation in its entirety.
He had a hunch that these must be very valuable things.
So what exactly is Su Qingyun talking about?
Anyone who does mathematical research should have worked on these world-class conjectures, and Su Qingyun is no exception. She has also studied the Riemann hypothesis. Of course, she has not been able to successfully verify it, but this does not mean that she does not have some of her own ideas and thoughts. All she is talking about now are some of her research ideas on the Riemann hypothesis in her previous life.
It was these ideas that shocked the judges. They followed Su Qingyun's train of thought and found no flaws or logical inconsistencies. They couldn't imagine how far they could go if they continued along this path. Would they actually be able to confirm the Riemann hypothesis?
This guess was too terrifying, they didn't dare to think about it, but just based on what Su Qingyun said now, they could already give her an extremely high evaluation. This was obviously not something that could be thought of within ten minutes, but something that could only be obtained after long-term research.
A seventeen-year-old girl had such a profound study of the Riemann hypothesis. If they had not seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, they would have thought it was impossible.
The other contestants present also noticed the abnormality of the judging panel. The judging panel's expressions seemed excited and thrilled, not at all the disgust and sighs they had imagined.
"Why do I feel like the judging panel is very impressed with this Chinese player? Is this just my imagination?"
"No, I noticed that too. Didn't you see Mr. Stevens was calculating in his notebook? What did she say?"
"I listened to it, but I couldn't understand it at all. I couldn't even follow her train of thought, but she seemed very impressive."
"Oh my god, this girl can't really understand the Riemann hypothesis? This is terrible!"
"She was still asking, 'What's that on the blackboard?' We're both math students, so why can't I understand anything? It was the first time those math symbols felt so foreign to me."
“…”
The translator looked at Su Qingyun who was talking so eloquently and suddenly felt a little relieved. Fortunately, her English was so good. Otherwise, it might be difficult for him to translate smoothly with so many professional mathematical terms and symbols.
There was also some admiration in his eyes. As expected, excellent people are excellent in everything.
Yu Qi and Li Siyuan only realized at this time that Su Qingyun was still speaking, and her speech became more and more fluent, without any pause. It was as if the words she said had been drafted thousands of times in her mind. She stood on the stage, confident and calm.
Looking at Su Qingyun like this, Yu Qi suddenly felt a surge of hope in his heart. Could it be...
He finally began to calm down and listen carefully to Su Qingyun's words, but he didn't hear many of the things Su Qingyun said before, and Yu Qi could hardly keep up with her thoughts.
But when he looked at the expressions of the judging panel, he felt relieved. At least, it looked okay for now.
Alexandra looked confused. "What are you talking about? I don't understand anything. Is it really math?" For the first time, she doubted her math level.
The judges listened attentively, the contestants looked confused, and the ten minutes passed in a flash.
As soon as ten minutes were up, Su Qingyun's voice stopped abruptly.
The judges were listening intently when the sound died down. Stevens quickly asked, "And then, what happened next?"
Su Qingyun smiled and said, "Mr. Stevens, my free speech time is up, you can give your grades."
The judges looked at each other, almost gasping for breath. What was this? He was done with it at the most exciting moment? Wasn't this just keeping them on edge? How could this happen?
Stevens took a deep breath and said, "Forget about the ratings and stuff. Just keep talking."
They don't have time to care about other people's games now.
