I just want to be a quiet scholar

Chapter 306 Hall of Fame

The seven members of Shen Qi's team who were waiting at the airport in Brazil to fly to the United States met Schulz who was about to fly to Germany.

A German man feuds with a German woman, and the two are legally married.

Two other old German men stood up to persuade them to fight, and after persuading them, the two old German professors quarreled with the young Germans.

As a bystander, the older Swedish youth couldn't stand it anymore, and he reprimanded the German youth as a jerk.

The German woman couldn't bear it anymore, and she wanted to use force to resolve the dispute.

The young Chinese man is the academic leader of the German woman. He didn't want to make matters worse, so he dragged the angry German woman down.

The Germans, Swedes, and Chinese were chattering, shouting in German and English, and the scene fell into chaos. This was a complicated international dispute.

Eventually security at Brazil's airport intervened and the chaos quelled.

Schultz was single-handed, and there were seven people on the other side, and these seven people were extremely united and unanimously external.

The hero does not suffer from immediate losses, and Schultz chooses to back down.

Before leaving, Schultz swore: "Mary, I will not sign the divorce agreement, I cannot lose you, I will not divorce you, never."

"It doesn't matter what you say, but what the judge says." Mary regained her senses and said lightly.

"Judge? The matter between the two of us still needs a judge's decision? Haha." Schultz laughed dryly, left, and looked back at Shen Qi as he walked, with great hostility.

Shen Qi spread his arms and shrugged, watching Schultz leave.

After this episode ended, Shen Qi and the others returned to the United States.

Whether Schultz or Mary, as well as Muller and Jonas, they all have stories.

It is difficult for an upright official to decide on family affairs. As an academic leader, Shen Qi can only make objective suggestions, express necessary concern for team members and academic partners, and should not interfere too much in other people's family affairs.

He didn't have time to interfere in other people's family affairs. After Shen Qi returned to Princeton, he was exceptionally promoted to be a professor in the Mathematics Department of Pudong University, with an annual salary of 21 US dollars.

Princeton held a grand commendation meeting for Shen Qi, and his head was hung in the window of the exhibition hall of the Mathematics Building.

On the left of Shen Qi is Tao Zhexuan's head, and on the left are Andrew Wiles, Graed Faltings, Edward Witten, Pierre Deligne, William Thurston, Charles Fefferman, John Milnor, John Nash... The two big men on the far left are Von Neumann and Kurt Gödel.

Einstein never worked in the Department of Mathematics at Princeton, and his head and bronze statues are displayed in the Department of Physics and the Institute for Advanced Study.

Shen Qi stood in front of the window, silent.

Director Fefferman stood beside Shen Qi, and he said with great emotion: "Whether we are alive or gone, we have no complaints or regrets, and we have done what we should do."

"Charles, what should we do next?" Shen Qi stared at himself in the window, he was not used to it at first, but he got used to it after a few more glances.

"I got the Fields Medal 40 years ago, I'm about to retire, Qi, what to do next, you have to ask your heart. My mission is to bring you to the Hall of Fame in the Department of Mathematics, that's all .” Fefferman laughed, looking relaxed.During his tenure as the dean of the department, the Princeton Department of Mathematics finally produced another Philippine Prize winner.

Shen Qi said: "I want to complete my "History of Number Theory", the theoretical system of Riemann zeta function prime number distribution, will appear in my "History of Number Theory" for the first time in the form of a complete version + original author's notes, the number of pages is not It’s too much, less than 100 pages. The entire “History of Number Theory” is about 400 pages.”

Fefferman: "Then do it and follow your heart."

Shen Qi added: "Although I have just been hired as a professor in the Department of Mathematics, I still want to continue studying, um, pure physics. You know Charles, the main field I chose at first was mathematical physics."

Fefferman: "Then do it and follow your heart."

Shen Qi: "Actually, I already obtained a bachelor's degree in physics during my study in China, so I don't know how to obtain a master's degree and a doctorate degree from the Department of Physics at Princeton?"

"In your current capacity, it is not appropriate to take classes, write papers, and complete credits with graduate students in the Princeton Department of Physics." Fefferman looked embarrassed.

"That's right." Director Fefferman had a plan, and he suggested: "Edward has returned to the Institute for Advanced Study. You can go to him and be his doctoral student in physics, and study for a doctorate in physics at the Institute for Advanced Study. I I will say hello to Edward and the director, Qi, and you will also contact Edward in private."

"OK, I hope Edward can accept me as an apprentice." Shen Qi felt that Director Fefferman's proposal was very suitable.

Edward refers to Edward Witten, who has moved back and forth between the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, the Department of Mathematics, and the Department of Physics of the University of Puerto Rico in the past ten years.

Witten's starting principle is to see his mood. Two months ago, he returned to the Physics Department of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton to study his superstring theory with great concentration.

The Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton enrolls a very small number of doctoral students. Shen Qi has already learned the best in the field of mathematics, and he only has a bachelor's degree in physics from Yanda University in the field of physics.

How to become a doctoral student in the Department of Physics of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, do I need to get a master's degree in physics from Princeton or other universities?

With Shen Qi's current status, it is the most suitable choice to take Edward Witten as his teacher in physics.

Shen Qi contacted Weiteng directly, and he said straight to the point: "Edward, I want to apply for a doctoral candidate in the Physics Department of the Institute for Advanced Study. I sincerely hope that you can become my physics tutor."

Witten: "Then you write a physics thesis. If this thesis has the level of a physics master's thesis in my opinion, then the Physics Department of the Institute for Advanced Study welcomes you, and I welcome you too."

"Okay." Shen Qi agreed to Wei Teng, which is a very reasonable request for a nomination certificate.

Shen Qi listed a short-term plan:
As a professor of the Department of Mathematics at Princeton, it is a scientific research task to complete the academic monograph "History of Number Theory" in the field of mathematics.

It is a teaching task to recruit a small number of mathematics graduate students and guide them to become useful as mathematics tutors.

As a physics student, write a master's level physics thesis with the goal of becoming a PhD candidate in physics at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

Draw up a plan and start executing it.

During the Christmas holiday, Shen Qi had to go back to China.

The leaders will meet Shen Qi in the Great Hall of the capital and award Shen Qi the National Advanced Medal, in recognition of Shen Qi becoming the first Chinese mathematician to win the Philippine Award.

Business is busy, let's deal with it one by one.

Shen Qi was the first to deal with the remaining half of "History of Number Theory". The material was already there, and what needed to be completed was the integration work.
