Just turned over a new leaf and became a wise and intelligent student

Chapter 434 We beat them by a huge margin this time!

Jiang Huanxi put down the paper and shook his head helplessly.

"Forget it, I won't read it. I can't understand it for now."

She leaned back in Xu Qingshan's arms, sighing with some resentment and discouragement.

"I don't know what's wrong with your brain. We studied together, but in just a few years, you've left me behind."

Jiang Huanxi nestled in Xu Qingshan's arms, counting on her fingers what courses she was currently studying.

"If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to graduate early by the end of the year. The undergraduate program lasts two and a half years, and it goes by so fast."

Xu Qingshan heard the core words.

"Two and a half years, it's time for me to debut."

"What's the way?"

Jiang Huanxi patted Xu Qingshan and said angrily.

"Nothing, so what are you going to say, come and study my graduate school?"

Xu Qingshan's hand had adaptively been placed where it should be, causing Jiang Huanxi to roll her eyes again, but she had long been accustomed to it and did not push Xu Qingshan's hand away.

"So will you accept it or not?"

Jiang Huanxi was unable to control herself as Xu Qingshan's big hands teased her. She turned around and buried her head in Xu Qingshan's shoulder.

"Take it! Anyone can choose not to take it, but why can you not take it?"

Xu Qingshan immediately responded in a loud voice, patting his chest and promising solemnly, although he didn't know whose chest he was patting.

"Now that you are here, you don't have to go to the lab to find a workstation. Just pick a seat in my office so you can see me every day."

"Huh, who wants to see you?"

A gust of wind blew in from outside the office door, waking Jiang Huanxi up.

She quickly pressed down Xu Qingshan's hand that was still trying to do something naughty, stood up from him, and hurriedly straightened her wrinkled clothes.

"Oh, the door is not even closed. It would be embarrassing if someone saw us. Go and do your work. I'll take you home later."

"Actually, I've already finished my work. Just tell me which journal you want to submit these two papers to, Science or Nature."

Xu Qingshan rubbed his hands.

Jiang Huanxi was anxious to take Xu Qingshan home, so she pointed to one at random and said, "Let's go with this one, which was submitted to Science."

"Okay, I'll listen to my leader."

Xu Qingshan put this copy into the folder and left the other copy there.

"Let's go, I'll drive, you take a good rest, and we'll get home early."

Xu Qingshan stood up, rubbed Jiang Huanxi's little head, turned off the computer, and took her out of the office.

Perhaps no matter how much the editors-in-chief of Science and Nature thought about it, they would never have thought that the core pages promoted in the latest issue of their journals were selected in such a simple way.

As expected, Xu Qingshan was not as busy as before and spent more time with his family.

He has submitted both papers according to the submission method.

He did not use any of his connections in the academic circle.

That's not necessary.

Xu Qingshan completed the most core work, and the rest of the work was naturally helped by the researchers and students in the team.

He himself was on vacation at home and at school, and from time to time he would accompany Jiang Huanxi to a class, or go to Tong Tong's laboratory to see how she was doing.

This has made life difficult for the teachers in Jiang Huanxi's classroom and the small bosses in Xu Chongren's laboratory.

Those who knew understood that Xu Qingshan came to accompany his family, while those who didn't thought that Xu Qingshan was taking on the job of vice-president and came to inspect.

As for how the 20-year-old Xu Qingshan could become the vice president of a top university like Jingcheng University?
No one would ask such a question.

Before asking this question, you should first ask when Kyoto University has produced a vice-president with such a great influence in the international mathematics field.

After going there a few times, Xu Qingshan felt that he seemed to be affecting the atmosphere of other people's classrooms and laboratories, so he simply stopped going. He only picked up the two little girls from school, and spent the rest of the time at home chatting with the old lady, watering the flowers, growing vegetables, and feeding the fish.

It was just that he often went home these days, and he had nothing to do, so he fed the fish a little too much, and several of them died of starvation. The old lady was very angry, and she drove him away to do other things and told him not to waste the beautiful and plump koi that she had raised with great difficulty.

This made the group of old academicians who had been secretly watching Xu Qingshan breathe a sigh of relief.

"This kid still knows how to combine work and rest."

"No, it's really worrying to see him spending every day in the lab like that."

"You are still young anyway. There is no need to rush into academic research. Take a break and relax. Maybe you will figure it out."

Xu Qingshan did not tell these old men that he had completed the new paper. They just thought that after Xu Qingshan completed the proof of the Riemann hypothesis, he wanted to continue to explore new fields, but he was too anxious and suffered setbacks, so he became discouraged.

As for Xu Qingshan, has he achieved important results?
They have thought about this possibility, but the probability is too small.

How long has it been since the Riemann hypothesis was fully proven? Even a big cow that eats grass and milks can't resist producing milk like this.

What's more, this is not ordinary milk.

They were all afraid that Xu Qingshan would become completely exhausted.

Of course, these old academicians from Beijing University have nothing to do all day long. They just think about this and that. But it is not the case with academicians from foreign countries.

When all the old guys in the capital fell asleep.

On the other side of the same continent, on a classical and self-proclaimed elegant island, the afternoon sun is falling on the flower bed on the small balcony.

Bernard held a bag of fish and chips and sat on a chair on his small balcony, enjoying the rare sunny day in London.

This was the first time he had seen the sun in the afternoon in the entire month.

He decided not to report to the Royal Society today.

How nice it is to stay at home and bask in the sun.

As a member and academician of the Royal Society of London, Bernard is also a specially invited journal reviewer for Nature, and he also holds some part-time jobs in the society.

Although he is not young anymore, he still has a lot of energy.

As for how he managed to complete so much work at the same time.

It's simple, just be lazy. As long as you are lazy by 20% in each job, if you steal 5 jobs, you can steal the amount of the 6th job.

The sun is shining today, which is another perfect excuse for Bernard to be lazy.

Just like his "Bernard's Diary".

On May 5th, it was foggy in London again. I couldn’t see the sun, and I was in a bad mood. I had no motivation to work, so I decided to take a day off.

On May 5th, it rained in London. The pattering rain fell into my heart, making me emotionally wet and EMO. I decided to take a day off.

On May 5th, the sun finally came out in London. I was in a good mood. I sat on the balcony in the sun, eating my fish and chips, drinking my coffee, and being lazy. I was happy.

Bernard still wanted to lie on the balcony with his eyes closed as usual.

But his colleagues obviously didn't want to give him this opportunity.

When Bernard's phone rang for the ninth time, Bernard could only put down the fish and chips in his hand with dissatisfaction, which were yellow croaker fish and chips.

Really are.

This weather is a godsend, is there anything more exciting than enjoying this sunshine?

No, impossible, absolutely impossible! Bernard answered the phone irritably.

"Bernard, you lazy bastard, are you hiding somewhere and slacking off again? Have you not read the email I sent you yet? Go and read it! Reply to me as soon as you finish reading it!"

As soon as the voice came out of the phone receiver, Bernard knew that the person on the other end was Nick, the person he hated the most.

Nick is also a fellow of the Royal Society, but he is one level higher than Bernard in every field. For example, he is also the editor-in-chief of Nature.

This means.

Nick was actually the initiator of many of Bernard's work.

With Bernard's personality, could he like someone who assigned him work every day?
"You're urging me again, Nick. Can't you be a little more romantic? Feel the sunshine. I think you must have stayed in the sewer for too long and turned into a rat in the stinking ditch, so you can't accept this bright sunshine."

Bernard began to have bad breath.

But he felt that he had controlled his anger well. After all, such a beautiful day was broken by Nick's continuous phone calls.

"Shut up, damn it, Bernard!"

Nick angrily interrupted Bernard's complaints, suppressed his anger, and continued to explain things to Bernard.

"Among the physicists I can contact now, only you have the math and computer skills to see it. Please help me take a look at Xu's paper right now and evaluate how amazing its value is. I'm not busy with other things today. I'm just waiting for your reply."

After Nick finished speaking, perhaps because he remembered that he needed help from someone, his tone relaxed a little.

In addition, the most suitable candidate he could find now was Bernard, so he had to make some concessions.

"Bernard, if you can finish your evaluation of this paper today, I can give you a few days off and let me finish your work, okay?"

Bernard, who was originally mumbling, suddenly changed his tone.

"Oh~"

Bernard's eyes lit up.

"I'll go and see it right away!"

"Thanks a lot."

Nick softened his tone and comforted Bernard.

After hanging up the phone, Bernard reluctantly brought his fish and chips into the house. He looked at the bright sunshine outside the window a few more times with longing, and then opened the email from Nick.

"Where did this Xu come from?"

Bernard hummed a British folk tune and looked at the concise paper of only 7 pages without any concern.

"Seven pages. Ahem. Interesting number of pages."

"Capital University. Xu?"

"Qingshan Xu?"

Bernard suddenly stopped what he was doing, stared at the abstract of the paper with wide eyes, and blinked hard.

"Oh my God!"

Bernard exclaimed, the relief gone from his face.

"This is a more unexpected gift than a sunny day in London!"

Bernard exclaimed, dancing around in front of the table and nearly knocking over his fish and chips.

Bernard quickly lay down, moved closer to the monitor, and read it letter by letter.

He was afraid that he had missed something.

Bernard boasts that he is one of the most mathematically competent scholars among Nature's editors and reviewers.

After all, professional mathematicians are working on the four top mathematics journals, and Nature receives only a few mathematics papers a year. It would be embarrassing to invite people but have no papers to show them.

But in front of the world's most popular mathematical superstar, Bernard is still very self-aware.

It can't be compared, it can't be compared at all.

Bernard was now calming down his excitement while building up his understanding of Xu's conjecture in his mind based on Xu Qingshan's paper.

"oi"

After a long time, Bernard sat in front of the monitor, looking at the last page of Xu Qingshan's programmatic paper. There was a line that said, "This article does not require any citation notes." For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"Damn Nick actually sent me a paper that could change the history of science. Could it be that he has a crush on me?"

Bernard, this strange old man with abstract thinking, was a little flustered for a moment, but as a top scholar and Nature editor and reviewer, he immediately sent his interpretation and evaluation to Nick.

Of course, that long article is mostly just the chatterbox Bernard talking, and there is actually only one comment that can truly represent Bernard's recommendation and evaluation.

“Suggest that this paper be used as the cover of the new issue”

After the distribution, Bernard felt uncomfortable sitting in the room.

He looked out the window at the sun.

He suddenly felt that such a sun did not seem so brilliant. Moreover, the sudden sunrise in London should not be the will of God for him to go out and learn?

Thinking of this, Bernard changed into his gentleman's suit, put on his old-fashioned godfather hat, put on a scarf, and rushed out the door with great momentum.

"Dame! It's damn hot in London!"

Just like women have to wear skirts in winter and rely on stockings and tights to keep warm when going out.

No one could understand why Bernard wore a scarf in May.

Maybe it's all for elegance and grace.

When Bernard ran to the society and found Nick, Nick was busy making a phone call.

"Yeah! Yeah! It's Xu, Huaxia Xu, um, yes, exquisite."

"We beat them so much this time!"

“We will dominate the scientific world in 2011! Let Nature be great again in our hands!!!”

"Just Science, watch me, Nick, chop it down!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I promise. I will maintain a good relationship with Hua Xia Xu. Even for him, we can increase the share of mathematics in Nature! Mathematics is basic science! It is the most authentic basic science! If it were not difficult to change the name of the journal, I would have directly changed Nature to Math!"

Bernard wiped the sweat from his brow.

He remembered that the last time Nick said this was last time, he should have said that Nature should be changed to Physics.
Nick has worn out all his rhetoric.

Seeing Bernard coming, Nick's pupils shrank slightly and he was very surprised. He said a few more words and hung up the phone.

"Bernard, you are here. What do you think of Xu's paper this time?"

Bernard couldn't suppress the smile on his face. At this moment, he looked at the "task controller" in front of him, whom he hated the most, and he was particularly kind and considerate.

"My mathematical attainments are not enough to evaluate Xu's paper, but even someone like me can understand it and understand Xu's intention and ultimate goal. I believe this paper is the key to Xu's new era!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"This time we..."

"We've already beaten them so much this time!"

On the other side of the ocean, Editor-in-Chief Thorpe of the American Association for the Advancement of Science was standing in the middle of the conference room with a serious face and his hands on the table.

“Totally surpass Nature, now!”
