From a university student to a chief academician

Chapter 200 The Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences

Xiangjiang, International Convention and Exhibition Center!
Early in the morning, many journalists from all over the world gathered around the entrance of the International Convention and Exhibition Center.

As an international award, the Shaw Prize is called the Nobel Prize of the East.

Every time the Shaw Awards Ceremony is held, it will attract the attention of the entire academic community around the world.

Naturally, it will also attract journalists in the field of science and technology from various countries.

Some important TV stations will also carry out news reports, such as Xia Guo's CCTV.

Therefore, there are also CCTV reporters here today.

A CCTV female reporter stood in front of the camera, holding a microphone and said: "My friends, good morning. This is the Hong Kong International Convention and Exhibition Center. Soon Run Run Shaw Awards Ceremony will be held here."

"The Shaw Prize is one of the international awards, awarded in the fields of astronomy, life sciences and medicine, and mathematical sciences."

"Each award will be awarded to one or two people. In my country, there is only one person who has won the Shaw Prize, and that is Academician Wu Wenjun."

"Among the Chinese, four people were awarded, namely Academician Chen Shiingshen, Academician Xu Xiasheng, Academician Jian Yuewei and Academician Wang Xiaodong."

At this time, the female reporter said excitedly: "But according to the gossip, I heard that another Xia native will win the Shaw Award today."

"Who exactly? What award? It's still unknown."

As an international award, the Shaw Prize is very difficult to win.

After all, it is hard to imagine how difficult it can be called the Eastern Nobel Prize.

Therefore, in the entire Xia Kingdom, only one person has won the Shaw Prize.

The rest are Chinese-American recipients of the Shaw Prize.

It has to be said that it is very difficult to win the Shaw Prize.

At [-]:[-], Ye Fei took his two students and strolled to the International Conference and Exhibition Center.

The International Convention and Exhibition Center is not far from their hotel, only 10 minutes away.

After arriving at the International Convention and Exhibition Center, follow the flow of people.

When they arrived at the door, Ye Fei took out the invitation letter, then led the two students inside, and took their seats.

There are fifty rows of seats, Ye Fei sits in the seventh row, and the first three rows are occupied by Fields Medal winners, Nobel Prize winners, the Shaw Prize Council and important leaders of Xiangjiang.

Rows [-] to [-] are for past Shaw Prize winners.

It is a good position for Ye Fei to sit in the seventh row, and Ye Fei's two students sit in the fifth row of No.30 behind.

Row No.30 to Row [-] is where students, relatives or friends brought by these well-known scholars sit.

When Ye Fei sat in the seventh row, many people looked at Ye Fei suspiciously.

You know, this position is not something that ordinary scholars can sit on.

Either it is an internationally renowned scholar, or it is the seat of this Shaw Award candidate.

And they also knew Ye Fei, Ye Fei was not a well-known international scholar, so Ye Fei became the candidate of Run Run Shaw.

And, considering that Ye Fei is a mathematician, then Ye Fei is a candidate for the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences.

Seeing this scene, many people were surprised.

Is Ye Fei a candidate for the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences?

Many people recalled, what important mathematics research did Ye Fei have recently?
It seems not!
Could it be Hilbert's 12th question?
Many people think of Ye Fei's one-hour academic report at the International Congress of Mathematicians, Hilbert's 12th question.

Many people said: "It should be this, I can't think of the rest."

08: 30!
Members of the Shaw Prize Council and important leaders of Heung Kong entered the venue and sat in the first row.

Afterwards, a young man in a white suit with a curly back came onto the stage.

"Welcome everyone to attend the No.20 Fifth Shaw Prize Presentation Ceremony. I am today's host..."

The host Balabala said a lot, and then introduced the important guests present.

Then the Chairman of the Council of the Shaw Prize gave a speech, and then Xiangjianghang/Zheng/Kwan Li Xiliang gave a speech.

After they finished speaking, the host said: "Next, the chairman of the Shaw Prize Council will announce the list of winners, and Xiangjianghang/Zheng/Guan will present the awards."

Every year at the Shaw Prize presentation ceremony, it is announced that all the winners are the chairman of the Shaw Council.

As for the award presenters, there have been three people who have served so far, namely Xiangjianghang/Zheng/Guan, Run Run Shaw and Yang Zhenning.

The director smiled at Li Xiliang beside him and said, "Mr. Li, please!"

Li Xiliang smiled and said, "Chairman, please!"

After speaking, the two walked onto the stage together.

The chairman held the microphone and said, "The one who won the Shaw Prize in Astronomy is..."

The Shaw Prize is divided into three categories, namely Astronomy, Life Sciences and Medicine, and Mathematical Sciences.

In order, the astronomy prize is awarded first, followed by the life sciences and medicine, and finally the mathematical sciences.

Two Shaw Prize winners this year, one from Canada and the other from North America, have developed novel and precise observation techniques to confirm the existence of neutron stars with super-strong magnetic fields and describe their physics characteristic.

The Shaw Prize in Life Science and Medicine was awarded to one person, Professor of Molecular Biology and Genetics at Cornell University in North America.

For his discovery of the endosomal protein sorting and transport complex pathway.

The chairman said: "The Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences is..."

"Ye Fei from Xia Guozhong Lake University!"

"In recognition of his contribution to the field of number theory, he proved Hilbert's 12th problem, constructed the largest Abelian extension of the number field, and thus promoted the proof of the Riemann Hypothesis."

Everyone froze for a moment, and then gave thunderous applause.

The reason why they were stunned was because Ye Fei was too young, maybe among all the winners of the Shaw Prize, Ye Fei was the youngest.

Academician Wu Wenjun of Xia Guo was 88 years old when he won the award.

Chern was 94 years old when he won the award.

Even Andrew Wiles, who proved Fermat's Last Theorem, was 53 years old when he won the Shaw Prize.

And how old is Ye Fei now?

He is only 27 years old.

Lin Yi and Wang Yuan applauded excitedly when their mentor received the award.

Ye Fei didn't tell them that he won the award. When they heard that Ye Fei won the award, they were shocked, and then excited.

The two are very happy for Ye Fei now.

Ye Fei was their mentor, and Ye Fei won a worldwide award, which represented Ye Fei's entry into the ranks of internationally renowned scholars.

As Ye Fei's students, their future development will be much smoother.

Ye Fei stood up with a smile and walked onto the stage, shaking hands with the chairman.

The director smiled and said, "Congratulations!"

Ye Fei smiled and said, "Thank you!"

Afterwards, Ye Fei shook hands with Li Xiliang again, Li Xiliang congratulated him, and Ye Fei thanked him.

Then Li Xiliang presented the award to Ye Fei, and then Ye Fei gave a speech.

It is nothing more than clichés like thanking the Shaw Prize Foundation, thanking Xiangjiang Zheng/Fu, thanking Xia Guo and so on.

After Ye Fei stepped down, the Shaw Prize presentation ceremony was over.

The Shaw Prize Presentation Ceremony will not last too long, and usually ends in one morning.

Of course, there is a dinner party in the evening.

The dinner is also an exchange of academic issues with a group of scholars.

After the dinner, Ye Fei took his two students out of the hotel dinner hall, and they were going back to their room to rest.

At this time, someone called Ye Fei not far away.

"Professor Ye!"

Ye Fei turned his head and found that it was the chairman and Li Xiliang.

Ye Fei walked over and said with a smile: "Chairman, Mr. Li!"

Li Xiliang smiled and said, "Professor Ye, can we talk for a while?"

Ye Fei looked at them suspiciously, then nodded and said, "Of course it's no problem."

After finishing speaking, Ye Fei said to Lin Yi and the two behind him: "Go back first, I'll talk to them."

"Okay!" Lin Yi said.

Immediately, they left and went back to their respective rooms.

And Ye Fei followed Li Xiliang into the coffee shop and sat down. The three ordered three cups of tea.

In the coffee shop not only sells coffee, but also sells tea.

The director smiled and said: "Professor Ye, I have heard about your deeds for a long time, and I am very glad to meet you."

Ye Fei smiled and said: "I have also heard about the deeds of the Run Run Shaw Council. I heard that Mr. Run Run Shaw has donated to build more than 6000 schools in mainland China. I have always admired him."

The chairman of the board lowered his head and looked sad, "Mr. Run Run Shaw is a great kind man!"

It has been 14 years since Run Run Shaw passed away, but many people still miss this respectable old man.

After a while, the chairman raised his head and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, Professor Ye, I'm looking for you today, one is that I want to meet you, and the other is that Mr. Li has something to talk to you about."

Ye Fei looked at Li Xiliang and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Li, what do you want from me?"

Li Xiliang said seriously: "Professor Ye, regarding your Web3.0, can you really develop it by the end of December this year?"

Ye Fei shook his head amusedly and said, "Mr. Li, people from Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology also asked me about this question after I first arrived in Xiangjiang."

"I know what you are worried about. I can tell you very seriously that Web3.0 will definitely be developed by the end of December this year."

"You're not telling lies, are you?" Li Xiliang looked at Ye Fei in disbelief.

After all, the Yuan Blockchain Research Institute has now lost V God's Ethereum blockchain system.

The loss of one of the four core technologies of the blockchain makes it hard to believe that Web3.0 can be developed.

Ye Fei shook his head and said, "There is absolutely no falsehood."

Ye Fei suddenly said jokingly: "Besides, I dare not lie to you, you are Xiangjiang's line/positive/close."

"Lend me ten guts and dare not!"

Hearing what Ye Fei said, Li Xiliang felt relieved. He laughed and said, "Professor Ye, you are flattering me by saying that. Who doesn't know that you, Professor Ye, have a strong research ability, and many important researches of Xia Guo are all Developed under your leadership."

"You are very concerned by Xia Guo in the mainland. My small position is not in your eyes!"

Regarding Ye Fei's strong research ability, many high-level people in the Xia Kingdom knew it, and Li Xiliang naturally knew it too.

Ye Fei shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't say that, compared to most of Xia's scientific research personnel, there are still some seniors, my little contribution is nothing!"

Li Xiliang said: "Professor Ye, since you said that Web 3.0 will be developed in December this year, then I will assume that you will be able to develop Web 3.0 in December this year."

"Let's talk about the next thing!"

Ye Fei said, "Say it!"

"There are nine major stock exchanges in the world, and Xiangjiang is one of them."

"However, on the Xiangjiang Stock Exchange, almost all of the listed companies are Xia Guo's companies."

"On the other hand, the New York Stock Exchange in North America is the largest stock exchange in the world, and most of the listed companies in the world are listed on the New York Stock Exchange."

"So, I want the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to attract more foreign companies to join."

"Let Xiangjiang become not only the financial center of Xia Kingdom, but also the financial center of the world."

"If Web3.0 is developed and applied to Hong Kong's stock exchange, then Xiangjiang's stock exchange will become the safest, most secretive, and healthiest stock exchange in the world."

Due to the decentralized nature of Web3.0, information cannot be changed, and each customer has an independent network.

Then Web3.0 is applied to the stock exchange.

All stocks cannot be manipulated by humans.

All stock markets fluctuate according to the market conditions under the calculation of the computer.

Then, many companies will not appear, artificially pulling down or pulling up the company's stock.

There will be no short-selling phenomenon.

In such an environment, the stock market is healthier, and the chances of listed companies going bankrupt are lower.

Of course, this also brings disadvantages.

The chances of some people wanting to make a fortune through stock trading are even lower.

Especially for those capital crocodiles, it is impossible to short the company's stocks through money.

Ye Feidao: "Such a stock exchange can indeed attract many foreign companies to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange."

Li Xiliang nodded and said, "That's right, that's what I think."

Li Xiliang looked at Ye Fei expectantly and said, "Professor Ye, is there any problem with the combination of Web3.0 and the stock exchange?"

Ye Fei shook his head and said, "Of course no problem!"

"Web3.0 is an open source program. As long as a program is developed using Web3.0, it can take over the Hong Kong Stock Exchange."

"Afterwards, the operation of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange can be handed over to the program developed by Web3.0."

Hearing this, Li Xiliang breathed a sigh of relief.

The development strategy of Heung Kong has always been to build an international financial center city.

Become a city like New York and London.

It’s just that Xiangjiang can only rank fourth as an international financial center city.

The first is New York, the second is London, the third is Singapore, and the fourth is Xiangjiang.

Although the ranking is good, most countries and companies only focus on the first and second.

Because of this, when he knew that Xia Guo would develop Web 3.0 in the future, he thought of using Web 3.0 to operate the Xiangjiang Stock Exchange.

If such a stock exchange can attract many foreign companies to go public.

Then, in the long run, Xiangjiang will be built into an international financial center city.

It will even surpass New York and London.

Li Xiliang smiled and said, "Then I will wait for Professor Ye to develop Web3.0."

"Ok!"

After talking about the matter, Ye Fei went back to the room to rest.

On the second day, Ye Fei did not leave Xiangjiang, but took his two students to play in Xiangjiang for three days.

Ye Fei also happened to have some fun.

After all, every time he came to Xiangjiang, he left in a hurry and never visited this international metropolis.

However, Ye Fei was once again in the news when he won the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences.

Jinling, Ye Fei's small noodle restaurant!
Although Ye Fei is rich now, Ye Fei's parents are not worried about Ye Fei's future.

Moreover, Ye Fei's parents don't work, so Ye Fei can afford to support them.

But Ye Fei's parents couldn't stay idle and they still opened a small noodle restaurant.

I don't want to be rich and powerful, I just want to have something to do and earn some pension money by the way.

Because of this, the price of Ye Fei's small noodle restaurant is very affordable.

At seven o'clock in the evening, it was time for dinner, and the noodle shop was very lively, with no empty seats.

"Lao Ye, a bowl of hot and sour noodles!"

"That's great!" Father Ye stood in the kitchen facing down.

At this time, the news was broadcast on the TV set in the corner.

[Our station's news, Ye Fei, a famous Chinese mathematician, won the international Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences.

The Shaw Prize is known as the Oriental Nobel Prize. In the entire Xia Kingdom, there are only two people who have won the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences, and Ye Fei is one of them. 】

"Lao Ye, your little Fei has won an award again." Someone in the noodle shop shouted excitedly.

Everyone in the noodle restaurant knew that as long as Ye Fei won the award, everyone in the noodle restaurant who was eating would be free of charge.

Father Ye heard the voice, got out of the kitchen, and looked at the TV.

Sure enough, it was broadcasting that Ye Fei won the award, and Father Ye laughed loudly and said, "Everyone is free, free of charge."

After finishing speaking, he got into the kitchen and muttered: "This kid is getting better and better now, and I don't know when he will get married, hey..."

Ye Fei is 27 this year and has reached the age of marriage.

But Ye Fei's status is too high and his ability is too strong.

Ye Fei's parents picked and picked, and found that no one around him was worthy of Ye Fei.

They also don't have the chance to meet better girls.

Therefore, they were too embarrassed to mention this matter to Ye Fei.

"This kid won't be alone forever!"

That night, the entire Internet was in a state of turmoil because Ye Fei won the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences.

You must know that the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences was awarded to only two people in the entire Xia Kingdom, and Ye Fei was one of them.

It is conceivable that it is very difficult to win the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences.

[Day, the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences. Although this award is not well-known, it is very difficult. It is known as the Eastern Nobel Prize. Many people who can win the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences are Fields Medalists and Nobel Prize winner. 】

【Excellent, Ye Fei actually won the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences, and now Ye Fei has also become an internationally renowned mathematician. 】

[Ye Fei is only 27 years old, he has achieved such an achievement at the age of 27, wow, I am 28 this year, and I haven't graduated with a Ph.D. yet! 】

[Upstairs, don’t be sad, you are not the only one, there are many like you in this world, well, I am 28 this year, and I just graduated with a Ph.D. 】

【…】

Not only the netizens were blown up, but Xia Guo's academic circle was also blown up.

Xia Guo's mathematics ability is not even third-rate, and there are very few mathematicians who can enter the international stage.

The 27-year-old mathematician on the international stage can be said to be unique.

Moreover, Ye Fei is also the youngest winner of the Shaw Prize.

Therefore, Ye Fei's winning the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences is a very exciting thing for Xia Guo's entire mathematics circle.

Of course, the happiest one is Zhonghu University.

After all, Ye Fei graduated from Zhonghu University and is also a professor at Zhonghu University.

The happiest person in Zhonghu University is Ye Fei's tutor, Professor Lu Yishan.

Zhonghu University!

Professor Lu Yishan walked into Professor Liu Yisheng's office with his hands behind his back, and saw Professor Liu Yisheng reading a book.

Lu Yishan said slowly, "I'm busy!"

Liu Yisheng looked up at him and said, "Yes, what's the matter?"

Lu Yishan said, "Have you watched the news recently?"

Liu Yisheng shook his head and said, "I'm so busy, I don't have time to watch the news."

"Hey..." Lu Yishan said with some regret: "Then you may have missed a major event in our mathematics world."

"Huh?" Liu Yisheng asked suspiciously, "What's the big deal?"

"Someone in our country has won the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences!"

When Liu Yisheng heard this, his face was covered with black lines.

Of course Liu Yisheng knew about Ye Fei winning the Shaw Prize in Mathematical Sciences.

Since yesterday, this matter has spread throughout the school.

As long as everyone in Zhonghu University, from the principal to the cleaners, knows about it.

Lu Yishan looked at Liu Yisheng expectantly and said, "Do you want to know who it is? I see your expression, you must want to know, then I will tell you reluctantly!"

Liu Yisheng pointed at the door and said angrily, "Get out of here. It's amazing to have a student who is so awesome. You're still showing off in front of me."

"Hey..." Lu Yishan looked at Liu Yisheng in astonishment and said, "So you know, you should have said it earlier!"

When Lu Yishan saw that Liu Yisheng was about to make a move, he hurried out and said, "Old Liu, let's have a drink together when Ye Fei comes back. I'll call Ye Fei too."

"Get the hell out of here." Liu Yisheng roared angrily, "Who wants to drink with you?"

Lu Yishan shook his head and said, "This is blatant jealousy. Is it so easy to cultivate a genius like Ye Fei? Only I can cultivate such a student, and no one else can."

The teacher passing by heard Lu Yishan's words and felt amused in his heart. He had seen shameless ones, but he had never seen such shameless ones.

Many people in Zhonghu University know Ye Fei's growth story.

When Lu Yishan took Ye Fei as a student, he hardly taught Ye Fei any knowledge, basically everything was taught by Ye Fei by himself.
