The End of Technology

Lu Zhengyue and Fan Zhenhua are both old academics who have studied mathematical theory all their lives. They have decades of experience in universities. They have taught almost four figures of students, but not many have truly achieved anything.

Especially now that the two of them no longer teach undergraduate students, they only recruit a few doctoral students every year. They understand better than anyone how terrifying the talent required to study mathematics is.

In other research directions, the tutor can provide guidance.

But in mathematics, especially in the direction of mathematical theory, what tutors do most is to guide students in topic selection. Come on, what direction do you want to study for your PhD?

Study the Longlitz Program? This field is very difficult, are you confident? Just go if you are confident, the teacher supports you! Having trouble? How about we change the topic? Stop competing with yourself, how about Li Qun? Li Qun doesn’t like it either? Then let’s do random analysis. This is simple and widely used...

See, math tutors are often so relaxed.

After helping students answer the questions, they can basically let them go. When students successfully complete their graduation thesis, they can then defend it and graduate.

If you encounter problems during this period, it is best not to ask the instructor.

Because in theory, doctoral students' proposal reports should solve new problems instead of repeating old problems. The tutor is old and has his own research work, so he may not have the energy to help you solve those problems.

So for many doctoral students in mathematics, going to the office twice to find a supervisor is enough. Go once when you are starting the topic and once when you are finishing it.

This shows how important talent is to mathematics, and it cannot be compensated by sweat at all. Without that talent, all the sweat is in vain.

Of course, this does not mean that mentors are unimportant. Excellent tutors can subtly teach students the mathematical methods, various mathematical ideas, and tools they have summarized throughout their lives.

This is the inheritance of science.

So when you meet a student with outstanding talent, especially a student who is very likely to win the highest honor in the world of mathematics, the tutor will be really happy.

Both of them have passed their age and it is impossible to win the Fields Medal in this life, but it would be great if they could become mentors to Fields Medalists in their lifetime.

Some people say this is a false name, but a false name is also a name!

Think about it, ten years later, when both of them had retired, they met while walking in the park, and while they were bickering, one of them suddenly said, "I heard that the student you met was the dean of the department a few days ago." ,congratulations. Unlike Ning Zi, our family, who only won a Fields Medal a few years ago, is nothing! Oh, I'm sorry, you didn't win a Fields game back then, right?

There is no doubt that this attack is dimensionality-reducing.

Don't think that academicians have no desire to compare. In fact, people at the top of the pyramid often compete more fiercely than ordinary people. Even if they don't fight, there are countless people behind them who will push them to fight...

If one's own strength increases by one point, the other's strength will decrease by two points. How can one not fight?

To put it bluntly, Ning Ju belongs to the future in their eyes, and may even become the banner of the Chinese mathematics community in the future. If such students don't fight, they will have nothing to pursue in this life.

So naturally, the admissions teacher’s tricks were learned and put into practice by the two old academicians. As soon as the dinner ended, the two big academicians stood on both sides of Ning Zi, refusing to let Ning Zi go home.

"Today we opened an extra room in the guest house, and Ning Zi came to live with us. Don't worry, we will definitely take good care of the child. We mainly discussed some academic issues and some issues about Ning Zi's future. Comrade Ning Kang, you have raised a good son! Ning Zi’s future achievements in mathematics will be limitless!"

When the dinner was over and everyone had finished their polite greetings, Lu Zhengyue walked out of the box next door and held Ning's father's hand tightly in front of everyone. After saying these words, the eyes fell on the two brothers Ning Jian and Ning Kang. It was different again, much more eager.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that when a person achieves enlightenment, a chicken or dog can ascend to heaven.

When a Chinese and American double academician and vice president of Huaqing University shows such a gesture, it says a lot.

As for the two admissions teachers, they knew the elegant meaning of Xiange after hearing it.

Others were just envious and surprised, but while the two admissions teachers had the same emotion in their hearts, they also knew very clearly that Lu Zhengyue's statement showed that the two academicians had been able to confirm that the paper that solved a major world problem was indeed written by Ning Jie. hand.

This is the time to test their professional abilities.

The two looked at each other warily, and then took a step forward almost simultaneously, sandwiching Ning's father on the left and right in the middle.

"Uncle Ning, congratulations. You'll be driving back in our car later. We can also discuss the future of our children." Zheng Wenhua took the lead in seizing a favorable location and said.

"Yes, Uncle Ning, you may not know how important the academic achievements this child Ning has made. When I go back later, I will go home to ask for a cup of tea and explain it to you in detail." Zheng Wenhua just finished speaking, Xu Xingfan immediately aroused Ning's father's interest from another side.

It's very complicated, but the two admissions teachers have long been accustomed to it.

"Uh..." Before Ning's father, who had just drank half a catty of wine and his brain was still like a mush, had come to his senses, the two admissions teachers were already carrying him out of the hotel.

"No more talking here, let's go. Ning Zi, don't worry, there are two academicians with you. We will just sleep in the guest house for one night..."

"No, brother, come back with me!" Ning's father turned around and shouted.

"Yes, yes, brother Ning Jian, let's go together, let's go together." Xu Xingfan quickly turned around and pulled Ning Jian involuntarily, as if he was afraid that he would escape and Ning's father would not cooperate.

Just like that, the two admissions teachers took the two Ning brothers into the car and left.

The leaders surrounded the two academicians in confusion, and the two academicians came to the county government guest house around Ning Ju, who was holding a kitten. After the two academicians casually thanked each other, they both entered the room specially prepared for Ning Zi, and then closed the door to thank the guests.

It also made the county leaders finally relax and start thinking about what happened on that day.

"Principal Zhang, I just heard from Lao Tan that after Ning Zi returned from Huaqing, didn't he go back to No. 1 Middle School to repeat his studies? What's going on today?" As soon as he walked out of the government guesthouse, the county magistrate couldn't help but ask. .

Principal Zhang had a dilemma on his face. To be honest, he had been confused all night. Seeing the two academicians treating Ning Ji like a treasure, he almost started to doubt his life. How could he know what was going on?

Of course, when leaders ask questions, they must be answered.

"Ning Zi... By the way, County Magistrate Li, I happen to have something to report to you about Ning Zi."

On second thought, Principal Zhang simply gave an overview of what happened to Ning Zi recently...

It is only right to push the pot out first...

"Is there still such a thing?" County Magistrate Li looked stunned.

"Well, I heard about it too. When the two academicians came today, they went straight to the Judicial Office. I heard that the taller academician Lu even lost his temper."

"No, let's go. Go to the police station first and ask what the situation is." County Magistrate Li pondered for a moment before making a decision.
