Research starts with PhD students

Chapter 181: Announcement of the Young Elite Project, Zhang Shuo? That's all right.

What Wang Hui said was not an exaggeration at all, Zhang Shuo really became a star.

Over the past two years, there have been reports related to Zhang Shuo in the media. It started with the "Master's degree plagiarism incident" and later turned into reports on research results.

Each achievement and each research has an international impact.

In the field of science, Zhang Shuo can be said to have created miracles that ordinary people cannot imagine, and there are also many positive reports about him in the media.

In addition, Zhang Shuo has good looks.

All these combined, coupled with the boost of being the first person in the country to win the Fields Medal, naturally attracted a lot of attention and created many fanatical fans.

Young people like to chase stars. There are various star-chasing groups on the Internet. Some people even regard "chasing stars" as their label. If they like the same stars, they can have a common language.

If there are conflicts among stars, then there are also conflicts among fans.

Zhang Shuo's fans originally came from the 'Zhang Shuo Support Association'. When it was first established, it was completely targeted at the so-called 'Huang Hui Support Association'. Not all of them supported Zhang Shuo, but because of the opposing emotions on the Internet, many people spontaneously supported Zhang Shuo.

Later, the 'Huang Hui Support Association' was disbanded, but the 'Zhang Shuo Support Association' remained.

After Zhang Shuo was reported many times by the media and was called a great figure on the Internet, the 'Zhang Shuo Support Association' became the 'Zhang Shuo Fan Support Association'.

Zhang Shuo is not like a regular star. He does not have a studio behind him, so naturally there is no one to guide or manage his fan clubs. Fan clubs are all organized spontaneously.

After Zhang Shuo won the Fields Medal, his fan group expanded greatly and even began to organize activities spontaneously.

This time we organized a pick-up at the airport.

After listening to Wang Hui's words, Zhang Shuo felt that the other party was exaggerating a bit, and he didn't take it too seriously.

When he was about to walk out of the airport passage, he stood there in a daze. Sun Xingli and Qi Zhixiang beside him also stopped. There was a large crowd gathered outside the airport passage, and many people in the front row were holding large banners together -

Congratulations to Zhang Shuo for becoming the number one player in Fields!
When Zhang Shuo saw the crowd outside the passage, the people outside also saw Zhang Shuo, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. Many people shouted slogans, "Zhang Shuo! Zhang Shuo!"

"Fields is number one!"

"First Scientist!"

"Master Zhang Shuo, we love you——!"

"Zhang Shuo, you are the best!"

"..."

Amid the chaotic scene, Zhang Shuo had mixed feelings. He was very happy that he was welcomed by so many people, but at the same time he was a little embarrassed.

After all, he is not a star. He has been a professional scholar in his past and present lives.

I'm still a little uncomfortable with this kind of scene.

Zhang Shuo turned his head and glanced at Sun Xingli, who immediately patted his chest and said, "Let's go out together!"

"Follow me!"

Sun Xingli walked forward with his head held high and chest puffed out, and said excitedly, "I must let everyone know that I am your best friend!"

"..."

Zhang Shuo felt speechless, but still followed Sun Xingli out of the passage.

Airport security had left a passage for him, but he felt it was not a good idea to just walk away like that, so he shook hands with the fans around him and signed a dozen autographs.

Zhang Shuo didn't know what to do, but suddenly noticed that Sun Xingli's backpack was full, and he immediately had an idea.

He took the box from Sun Xingli, opened it and found the "Hanoi local specialties" inside, then scattered them into the crowd, making the scene even more chaotic.

Zhang Shuo quickly took the opportunity to leave.

Sun Xingli stared at the empty backpack and ran after him, shouting in despair, "I brought that back from Hanoi, and I said I was going to give it to Tong Jie!"

"Why did you throw them all out..."

Zhang Shuo walked quickly all the way until he got out of the airport and sat in the school's car. Then he suddenly came to his senses and asked, "Tong Jie? Why are you giving it to her?"

"Forehead……"

Sun Xingli didn't answer awkwardly.

Zhang Shuo continued to ask, "Didn't you say last time that you were chatting with Yuan from the University of Science and Technology...what?"

"Oh, by the way, there's also a fat guy, what's his name..."

Sun Xingli tightened his face and said seriously, "This is what I want to teach you."

"You are still young, you don't understand! When looking for a girlfriend, you must cast a wide net, you can't hang yourself on one tree."

"Only by casting a wide net can you catch the fattest fish!"

Zhang Shuo nodded thoughtfully, "Just put the blame on me, and then tell the truth."

"When Tong Jie asks me, I will tell him that you think she is the fattest fish..."

……

The fans at the airport were the first hurdle, and the second was the welcome party at the entrance of Soochow University.

Sudong University has been ready for a long time.

Six banners were hung on both sides of the school gate, with messages such as 'Congratulations to our professor Zhang Shuo for winning the Fields Medal', 'Professor Zhang Shuo has surpassed himself and created greater glory', 'Professor Zhang Shuo has made remarkable achievements in scientific research and has been promoted steadily', etc.

A large number of vice presidents, directors, professors, and even senior academicians were waiting at the door, and there were many students watching behind them.

When Zhang Shuo and his group got off the bus, they were shocked by the scene at the school gate.

Even when leaders come to inspect, it doesn’t feel this grand.

However, for Suzhou University of Science and Technology, Zhang Shuo's winning of the Fields Medal is indeed more important than the leadership inspection. From now on, they will have the first Fields medalist in the country, and he will also become a stabilizing figure for the school.

It is not excessive to attach great importance to such a person.

After Zhang Shuo got off the bus, he felt the enthusiasm of the school. Several vice presidents, directors, and academicians came over one by one to shake hands with him and asked about their journey.

Of course, there was nothing wrong.

Returning to Sudong from Hanoi only meant a transfer in Donggang. I was indeed tired, but it was only a few hours and it was not to the point of being unbearable.

After some greetings at the school gate, Zhang Shuo and his group were escorted into the school.

A group of people went to the high court building together.

Zhang Shuo went straight up to the third floor and finally got some peace and quiet when he reached his old room.

In the evening, there will be a celebration party.

The celebration party was held for the participants of the Mathematical Congress, and Zhang Shuo was the protagonist among the protagonists.

This day, one game after another.

Zhang Shuo also felt very tired, but he was also very happy in his heart. After all, he was the focus of everyone's attention.

……

The next day, things finally got a little quieter. Zhang Shuo woke up late, and it was already ten o'clock when he arrived at the high school building.

Everyone I met on the road still said congratulations.

In the short term, the Fields Medal was an unavoidable topic. Zhang Shuo returned to his office and thought about the airport pick-up yesterday, so he simply posted a message on Weibo, "I am a scholar, not a celebrity.

I am very happy that everyone likes me, but I also hope that everyone can be rational and not affect social order because of liking me."

He also posted a picture on Weibo, which means "I am very happy."

It is gratifying to see so many fans coming to pick me up at the airport, and it gives me a sense of accomplishment.

It is enough to enjoy this sense of accomplishment once.

Zhang Shuo does not have the mentality of a star, nor does he plan to make money by being "popular". He still hopes to guide those who like him in a positive way.

After closing his Weibo account, he no longer paid attention to anything happening on the Internet.

He has a lot of work to deal with.

First, I found Li Liushuangyue and asked her to help deal with the email problem.

Li Liu Shuangyue has been "promoted" from a school girl to a "work assistant".

When a person becomes very famous or has very fruitful research, his work becomes very complicated and his personal work mailbox will receive a large number of emails.

If you handle it all by yourself, it will take a long time.

Many top professors have an assistant to help them, because the assistant is very close to them, is involved in some of their life affairs, and knows some information that other people don’t know. They usually look for assistants who are their own doctoral students.

Zhang Shuo has never been engaged in teaching and does not have any doctoral students under him.

So he decided to find Li Liu Shuangyue.

Li Liu Shuangyue is still very suitable. She is his junior and is studying for a doctorate with Luo Yongjun. They are very close on weekdays, so the part-time role of assistant is just right for her.

Li Liu Shuangyue helped organize the mailbox, throwing some unnecessary emails into the trash can, leaving only the emails that needed to be read.

In the afternoon, Li Liu Shuangyue sent over a list with a large number of academic journals marked on it, all of which hoped to publish "NS Equations: Singularity Argument of Turbulent Transition", including the four major mathematics journals.

At the International Congress of Mathematicians, the report made by Zhang Shuo had a very great influence.

Many mathematics journals sent emails, hoping to publish his research. This is what top research is like. There is no need to submit a paper specifically, but the journals hope to get the opportunity to publish it.

"Recent Advances in Mathematics" was very sincere and even stated in the email that it would provide a $10,000 manuscript fee.

Ten thousand dollars isn’t a lot, but it means a lot.

If scholars publish their papers in top journals and want everyone to be able to read them for free, they have to pay the journal a sum of money, usually between two thousand and ten thousand dollars.

Now that journals pay manuscript fees in return, it is enough to show how much they hope to publish it.

This is normal.

Scholars publish papers in the hope that more people in the same field can see their research, so that the research can have a greater impact.

The results published by Zhang Shuo at the International Congress of Mathematicians have already had a very large influence. He even posted them directly on the Internet, and anyone can download them directly, so there is no need to put them in a journal to promote them.

After thinking about it, he decided to support domestic magazines.

Academy of Sciences, Acta Mathematica Sinica.

This is an early mathematics journal that mainly publishes original papers in mathematics and applied mathematics.

The Chinese Journal of Mathematics also sent an invitation. Like New Advances in Mathematics, they are also willing to offer a manuscript fee of 50,000 RMB.

Fifty thousand RMB is not as much as ten thousand U.S. dollars, but the difference is not that big.

Whether there is any payment for articles is only one aspect to consider. Since the influence of journals is not needed, it is naturally okay to support domestic journals.

After deciding on the journal to publish, Zhang Shuo patiently organized the information. Before attending the International Congress of Mathematicians, his team had just completed the research on "The Correlation Model between Electromagnetic Force and Gravitational Theory".

The paper has also been submitted to the Journal of Advanced Physics under the Nuclear Organization.

Although the paper has been submitted and a report has been made to the Science and Technology Department that provided the funding, there is a lot of theoretical research content that still needs to be carefully organized.

This work is very important.

In fact, Zhang Shuo has already stood at a very important crossroads in his life. After completing the research on "The Correlation Model between Electromagnetic Force and Gravitation Theory", the next step is to study the analysis of the mathematical model.

This research is not just pure mathematics, because the model is very complex, they need experiments to carry out numerical measurements.

Just like the study of the NS equation, the NS equation is an expression of physics, and the study of applied mathematics is to use experiments to determine numerical values, and the numerical values ​​are the solutions to the NS equation.

The model related to electromagnetic force and gravitational theory is more complicated than the NS equation. It is impossible to study the solution set in a purely mathematical way. Experiments are needed to carry out numerical measurements in order to better understand the model.

Experimental determination is also theoretical verification.

The initial experiments were relatively good. To study the "strong correlation" later, it might be necessary to conduct high-intensity experiments, similar to the "electromagnetic force interference strong force" experiment in the previous life...

First of all, a large amount of funds is required.

It may be more difficult to apply for funding now than in the previous life, because the source point theory in the previous life has become the most well-known physics theory in the world. Several teams are conducting experimental research, and related experiments in China are also keeping up with the international pace.

This is like the experiment at the Institute of High Energy Physics, and the application for CP experimental research was quickly approved.

Fermilab and the Organization for Nuclear Research are conducting such experiments, and experiments are also being conducted in China, so there are naturally no obstacles.

It's different now.

The source point theory only has a framework, and the "Standard Equations of Energy Force Field" has just been released. Many scholars around the world are conducting research on it, but there are no outstanding results. It is naturally very innovative to conduct relevant experiments.

It is definitely not easy to apply for large amounts of funding for such research.

The only advantage is that he is much more famous than in his previous life and has much greater international influence.

Zhang Shuo continued to prepare patiently. He hoped that with more foundation, he could convince more people to support the experiment.

It is not easy to apply for experimental projects in new research directions, but it is much easier in other research directions.

There was good news at the end of August. The Science Foundation launched a program to support outstanding young scientists, and "Proof of the Properties of Solutions of the NS Equations" was one of them.

"Proof of the properties of solutions to the NS equation" is one of the seven mathematical conjectures of the millennium.

The Science Foundation supports many outstanding young people projects every year, but there has never been a research project on the Millennium Mathematical Conjecture among them.

This kind of project is almost impossible to pass.

No scholar or mathematical research team dares to say that they can complete the research on the Millennium Mathematical Conjecture, and the review expert team of the Science Foundation does not believe that any individual or team can complete the Millennium Mathematical Conjecture.

So after the Outstanding Youth Project was announced, many people felt incredible when they saw the NS equation research project.

They even thought they were seeing things.

Then, I noticed that the project applicant was marked as - Soochow University, Zhang Shuo.

Zhang Shuo?

That's okay...
