The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 74, Tian Shouzhong, who almost lost his mind, and the cat that stole the fish (asking for monthly tickets)

"Xiaotian, now that you're here, I'd like to introduce you to someone."

In the office, Tao Fangqi introduced Tian Shouzhong and Wang Duoyu to each other, and then asked them to start working on the side.

Wang Duoyu started working right after joining the company. He thought to himself: I am worthy of this salary. Otherwise, I would not be able to bear to receive the salary for nothing.

Tian Shouzhong looked down on Wang Duoyu a little, so he only gave him the part that required a lot of mathematical tools such as functional analysis, differential equations, and linear integral equations with asymmetric kernels. The difficulty coefficient of this part was very high. Just based on the amount of calculation, Tian Shouzhong estimated that it would take at least ten days or half a month to complete.

This is actually not the most critical part. The calculation equations are not complicated. The problem is how to use these tools to complete the proof part. And since it is about the flight of aircraft in outer space, it is necessary to use the most basic mathematical theories: Kepler's laws, Newton's law of universal gravitation, orbital dynamics equations, etc.

If you have no exposure to mathematics and physics, you will probably just be left staring blankly.

So after Tian Shouzhong handed the document to Wang Duoyu, he buried his head in his own work and had no intention of paying any further attention to the latter. He was even more aloof than an iceberg beauty.

He wanted to give Wang Duoyu a warning, not only because Wang Duoyu had just joined the company and was an intern researcher at the lowest level, but also because Wang Duoyu was not enthusiastic at all when Professor Tao introduced him just now.

The most important thing is that the other party is so highly regarded by Tao Fangqi and is a top-notch mathematical genius. Tian Shouzhong wants to see whether this genius is more of a facade or something else?

After Wang Duoyu took it, he didn't think too much about it and just lowered his head to check it.

He was excited. After all, he was involved in the applied mathematics project. The knowledge he had learned in two lifetimes could finally be put to use.

It is said that if one learns the arts of civil and martial arts, he can serve the emperor.

Although Wang Duoyu did not learn knowledge in order to sell it to the imperial family, he also wanted to put it into practice and contribute his own meager strength to the land under his feet.

A large number of mathematical symbols soon appeared on the draft paper, and the proof process and calculation formulas were all out.

More than half an hour had passed. Tian Shouzhong looked up and glanced at Wang Duoyu. He thought Wang Duoyu would be thinking hard and scratching his head.

As a result, no one expected that Wang Duoyu was actually writing furiously.

"It's only been a little after half an hour, and he's already filled seven or eight pages?"

"Could it be that he really knows how to use those functional analysis and differential equation tools? Is he really a mathematical genius comparable to Director Hua?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. He must have written it randomly. How is that possible? When Director Hua was his age, he was still studying. So it's absolutely impossible."

Tian Shouzhong almost lost his mind and was about to break down.

It was only because he spent thirteen years at the Institute of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences that he was able to step by step reach his current position as an assistant researcher.

You should know that Chen Jingrun joined the Institute of Mathematics in 1957, was promoted to assistant researcher in 1962, and was not promoted to researcher until last year, skipping the rank of associate researcher.

In fact, Tian Shouzhong was also unlucky. Not long after he joined the Institute of Mathematics, he encountered a cold Siberian wind, which made his future uncertain. The Institute of Mathematics was in a precarious situation and almost unable to protect itself.

Just when Tian Shouzhong was stunned, Wang Duoyu changed another piece of draft paper.

After a while, when Tian Shouzhong was still working, Wang Duoyu had already put down his pen and stretched.

Seeing that Tian Shouzhong and Tao Fangqi were both focused on their own work, Wang Duoyu didn't disturb them. Then, without making any noise, he stood up and quietly left. He walked around the corridor outside and found that everyone was busy with their own things, or discussing math problems in a low voice. In short, they were all working.

"Am I the only unemployed vagrant? It's true that I'm the odd one out here. I really don't fit in."

Wang Duoyu reflected on himself, then walked out of the yard and strolled outside.

At the door, Feng Kanggang walked in with the information and happened to see Wang Duoyu who was doing nothing. His eyes lit up:
"You are classmate Wang, right?"

Seeing Wang Duoyu nod, Feng Kang continued with a smile, "Hello, hello. I'm Feng Kang from the Computing Center. We met a few days ago. You just started today, right?"

After some polite exchanges, Feng Kang said bluntly:

"Well, Lao Tao said you're very talented in topology, partial differential equations, and I've also read a few of your previous papers on mathematical models. If you're free now, could you come over and help me out?"

"I have a high-energy physics calculation task. Do you dare to take it on?"

"Don't worry, regardless of whether you succeed in the challenge or not, I will definitely let you use the computers in our computing center afterwards. You have to know that the computers here are national treasures. Ordinary people have never even heard of them, let alone touched them."

He is the director of the Computing Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is mainly responsible for research in high-energy physics scientific computing, data storage, networks, scientific research informatization, etc.

The first computer in the computing center was the largest domestically produced 48-bit DJS-8 (320) computer in China at the time. However, after 130, Tsinghua University and other institutions jointly designed and successfully developed the DJS-100 minicomputer using integrated circuits, with a computing speed of million times per second.

Therefore, the Computing Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was also updated synchronously, and now has a large number of computers.

Feng Kang believed that he could attract Wang Duoyu by using provocation and computers as bait.

You know what, he succeeded!

"Great, come on, come on, follow me!"

Seeing Wang Duoyu nodded in agreement, Feng Kang no longer cared about anything else and pulled the former to the courtyard next door.

After entering the computing center, Wang Duoyu was immediately disappointed. Although they said there were many computers here, there were actually not many.

Because the computing center is just a computing center, it is completely different from the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Although he was very disappointed, Wang Duoyu did not show it.

There aren't many people in the entire computing center, and I don't know if everyone is busy with their own things.

Feng Kang assigned some tasks to Wang Duoyu and arranged him in an office. He simply introduced the identities of the two researchers and left in a hurry.

But his expression when he left was very cunning, just like a cat that had stolen fish, his steps were light and he was extremely happy.

"You're Wang Duoyu, huh? Professor Tao from the mathematics department next door has been praising you to the skies lately. Have you ever been exposed to high-energy physics?"

When the two researchers saw Director Feng leave, they suddenly became bolder. One of them raised his eyebrows and wanted to bully the newcomer.
