When he came to the principal's office, Zhuang Weiran deliberately knocked on the door first.
"Come in." Chen Zhong's voice sounded outside the door, Zhuang Weiran opened the door to the office, nodded to Principal Chen Zhong, "Grandpa, you are looking for me."
"Sit down, Rui Ning." Chen Zhong pointed to the seat opposite and said, "That thing you just said."
"Are you talking about the mathematics award?" Zhuang Weiran sat on the chair, and Chen Zhong nodded, "The idea is very good, but it may be difficult to invite top international mathematicians. Before the Morningside Mathematics Award, Inviting Faltings also said many times that he will come. Besides, you also know that the Morningside Mathematics Prize is awarded to the Chinese, and the mathematics prize we are going to do now is a mathematics prize awarded to the whole world , I am afraid it will be more difficult."
"It's hard for people to accept this mathematics award, isn't it?"
"It is indeed difficult." Zhuang Weiran nodded lightly, "But if we invite mathematicians, I can invite a few to be judges. Any award will be questioned. Even the Nobel Prize is no exception, but No one can deny that, at least in the field of science, the Nobel Prize can be said to be the highest and most authoritative award at present."
"It's what countless scholars and scientists yearn for the most." Zhuang Weiran paused, "At least I want this award from Dragon City University to be on par with the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, the Craford Prize in Mathematics, and the Abel Prize. It’s not about going around the country, or just playing around in the Chinese world like the Morningside Mathematics Award.”
"It's very ambitious." Chen Zhong smiled, "But we still need to consider the actual situation. Think about it, this award wants to become the Wolf Prize in Mathematics. Awards like the Craford Prize in Mathematics require How many years will it take? Even the Fields Medal did not become the highest award in mathematics from the very beginning."
"So it takes a while." Zhuang Weiran spread his hands, "I didn't think it would be done overnight, but compared to the pure mathematics annual meeting. I think this is more conducive to Dragon City University being able to invite world-renowned mathematicians every year. If you go there, you can speak freely here, and your academic ideas will stir up here. I believe that, over time, the academic atmosphere of Dragon City University will not be much worse than that of Princeton University.”
"If it weren't for the Göttingen School of Mathematics to go to the Lighthouse Country, I don't think Princeton University would have risen, right?" Zhuang Weiran said with a smile, "Since we have an opportunity, we can invite these top scholars to come to Dragon City University every year. Academic exchanges, even academic reports. Cultivating the academic atmosphere of the school, I believe, is a matter of course."
Principal Chen Zhong thought about Zhuang Weiran's words for a while, and felt that they were not unreasonable.If the academic atmosphere of Dragon City University can be cultivated from now on, I believe that in a few decades, Dragon City University may not be much weaker than Princeton University in mathematics.
"Since I came to Dragon City University, I still hope that Dragon City University can have a brand new look." Finally, Zhuang Weiran said quietly, "At least, I don't want to see that after I have been in Dragon City University for decades, Dragon City University It’s still the same as before.”
"Deliberate reform is a good thing, but it's also a bad thing." Chen Zhong sighed, "I think there are many people who will oppose it."
"Then let them object." Zhuang Weiran said amusedly, "So what if you object? Why don't you stop doing this if you object?"
"I told the mayor about this issue before, but now I'm afraid I have to explain it clearly to the mayor."
"On the mayor's side, we just vaguely expressed an idea. You have to think about it. If we do this every year, how many people will have opinions?"
"But for Dragon City, this is also a rare good thing."
"If Grandpa has nothing else to do, I'll leave first." Zhuang Weiran got up to leave, Chen Zhong shook his head and smiled, it seems that Rui Ning returned to Dragon City University, and really wanted to make some changes for Dragon City University.
…………
"Mayor." The mayor's secretary looked at Mayor Xie with the microphone, "Principal Chen has something to tell you."
Mayor Xie took the phone, laughed and said, "Mr. Chen, you called me so late, haven't you rested yet?"
"Can't sleep." Chen Zhong sighed over the microphone.
"Oh?" Mayor Xie snorted slightly, "Old Chen, you can't sleep, who made you angry?"
"It's not that someone made me angry." Chen Zhong sighed, "I was just thinking, we, Dragon City University, can expand this year's mathematics conference a little bit."
"Oh?" Mayor Xie said with a smile while holding the microphone, "Mr. Chen, can you explain a little more clearly? How will the Longcheng University's annual math conference change?"
Mayor Xie was also quite puzzled. He had told Mr. Chen before that Mr. Chen said that Longcheng University's annual mathematics conference would be held once a year, and he needed to discuss it with the professors of Longcheng University.Is there any change now?
"It's like this, Mayor Xie." Chen Zhong took the microphone and thought for a while and said, "We are going to make a mathematics award, which will be held once a year. Every time the mathematics award will invite the world's top mathematicians as judges, the most important thing is It must be this mathematics award. After the mathematics award, there will be a series of academic reports, academic lectures, and academic forums.
"It may take a long time, like 20 to 11 days. We plan to hold it in October, that is, from October NO.31 to October [-]."
"At that time, it may be necessary to trouble the cooperation of various units."
"No problem." This is a good thing, and it has many benefits for Longcheng and him, "This math award?"
"Director Zhou is negotiating with the Zhenxing Group." Chen Zhong thought for a while and said, "At that time, Longcheng University and the Zhenxing Group will jointly fund and award a mathematics award every year. The rules for this mathematics award still need to be discussed."
"This is a good thing, let me express my opinion first." Mayor Xie said with a hearty smile, "I and the leaders of all relevant units in the city will fully support you in doing this."
"Haha, thank you, Mayor." Principal Chen Zhong hung up the phone.
He Zhenguo was eating at home when he received a call from the city asking him to go to a meeting.
When he left, he casually asked, "Rui Ning, is there something wrong with you at Dragon City University?"
He Ruiming raised his head to look at Zhuang Weiran, but he heard a lot in the unit.Wei Yaoyang also came to eat, Zhuang Weiran said, "Yes, I propose that instead of holding a mathematics conference every year, it is better to set up a mathematics award, which will be more beneficial to Longcheng University."
"What mathematics award?" Wei Yaoyang looked at Zhuang Weiran in astonishment.
"I don't know." Zhuang Weiran was a little amused, "The award was drawn up by Director Zhou, and he was also working on the plan. I'm just a professor, just participate and give an opinion."
He spread his hands and looked at Wei Yaoyang, "Otherwise, what else do you think I can do?"
"I'm leaving first, you guys have a good meal." He Zhenguo went to the porch to put on his shoes, and he didn't forget to ask, "Rui Ning, rest early later, don't you have an academic report meeting in two days?"
"I know." Zhuang Weiran's voice sounded, and He Zhenguo put on his police uniform and left the house.
A few days later, all the students' topics had been sent to the email, Zhuang Weiran read it for a long time, and handed it over to Li Fei to deal with.
His academic report will be coming up soon. During this period, many professors from famous foreign universities are walking around Longcheng University.The police in the entire Longcheng City are almost always on the move, basically don't even think about taking a rest.Wei Yaoyang and He Ruiming didn't rest either, He Ruiming and He Zhenguo didn't go home for several days.Probably because of the Longcheng University academic report meeting, thousands of people will come, the hotels around the Longcheng University are already full, and there are many professors, scholars and doctoral students who came from abroad and other places in China to live in a distance from Longcheng University. City University is relatively remote.
This formation is not only the first time Dragon City University has encountered it, but also the first time Dragon City has encountered it.Dragon City has not held any major international conferences before. Although only professors and scholars from international universities went to this time, in order to impress these professors with a relatively good image, all departments of Dragon City University are working overtime continuously.
On the contrary, Dragon City University, as the organizer, seemed to be relatively free. After they arranged the academic report and booked other academic forum locations, they had nothing to do.
The auditorium with thousands of people was used for academic lectures, and it was the first time that Longcheng University used it like this. The security guards at the gate were all from the police.
Zhuang Weiran's academic report meeting was the first day of this trip, and it was also the academic report meeting with the most people.Other academic lectures are lecture halls with hundreds of people, only Zhuang Weiran's academic lectures are auditoriums.
The invited professors, the professors who came here at their own expense, and the various leaders of Longcheng City were among them. He Zhenguo also walked to the auditorium of Longcheng University in police uniform, and he was also invited.In fact, Mayor Xie was worried that Professor Zhuang's academic report would be too empty, so he asked the leaders of various units in Dragon City to make up the numbers.Until he knew that there were not many places left, Longcheng University invited the leaders of the units who contributed the most to the academic report to come and listen to the academic report.
In fact, everyone knows that academic reports will definitely be incomprehensible.That is to say, I want to see what kind of report is so attractive that so many people come to Longcheng University from a long distance.
Most of the people who entered were foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes, and there were also some Asians who spoke foreign languages, but there were not many scholars from their own countries.It's not that they don't want to come, but that there is no way to enter the venue. Some people even plan to listen to this academic report outside the auditorium.
He Zhenguo and Director Yang came to Dragon City University together. Their cars almost couldn't find a place. The parking lot of Dragon City University seemed to be so crowded. As soon as he got off the car, He Zhenguo heard Director Yang calling him, "Old He."
"Old Yang." He Zhenguo deliberately put on a neatly ironed police uniform, "You're here too."
"That's not it." Director Yang said with a smile, "Today is your son's academic report meeting, so I can't come to study?"
"Forget it, can you understand?"
"It's as if you, a big bastard, can understand." Director Yang asked with a smile, "Where's your son? Haven't gone out yet?"
"Going out." He Zhenguo said with a smile, "I have to take the bus, saying that I want to think about something on the bus."
"This kid..." Director Yang smiled, "I've heard that the outside of the Longcheng University auditorium is almost packed, and he hasn't come yet."
"Isn't it time yet?"
"Lao He, Lao Yang." The director of another district came over and greeted the two of them, "Yo, you two are here."
"Old Chu, you're here too." Everyone is in the same system, of course they know each other.
"I can say that this big battle is all because of Lao He your son." Director Chu lit a cigarette, "After this incident, Lao He can't treat our brothers to dinner? I Seeing that all the brothers below are quite tired, we are not at ease. Why do you think these people are crazy, and they all ran to Dragon City? Just to listen to some academic report."
"I'm talking about Lao Chu, this can't be said, the Lord's father is still here."
"Hey, look, I forgot." Chief Chu patted his head, "Sure, let's go in now. I heard that there are people outside, tsk tsk, I have been a policeman for so many years, this is the first time I have seen the school To be able to make such a big battle."
Director Chu was amazed, "It's an eye-opener."
When they walked to the school auditorium, the three of them were even more shocked. In front of the auditorium, except for the standing policemen, there were all people sitting on the ground, obviously preparing to listen to the academic report here.
He Ruiming was on duty outside, and Wei Yaoyang was guarding the auditorium here.Seeing so many people sitting on the ground, including many blond and blue-eyed foreigners, the police officer next to him said to him, "Do you think these people are crazy? I would rather sit outside and listen to this time." What report will come."
Wei Yaoyang smiled and didn't speak, he also thought it was quite amazing.Just the words Zhuang Weiran's academic report meeting were able to attract so many people.
When he looked up, he saw He Zhenguo approaching from a distance, and Zhuang Weiran also appeared in his sight.
"Dad." Zhuang Weiran stepped forward quickly, pulling He Zhenguo's clothes.
He Zhenguo turned around and saw Zhuang Weiran standing behind him, He Zhenguo smiled and said, "Rui Ning, are you here?"
"En." Before Zhuang Weiran finished speaking, a foreigner rushed over excitedly, still muttering something.
Director Yang looked at that person, and said to Zhuang Weiran, "Who is that person?"
"My student, a student at Princeton University." Zhuang Weiran saw Pierce rushing towards him and waving at him while calling him a professor. The security guard was about to step forward to stop him, but Director Yang shouted, "Let him come here."
Pierce trotted all the way to Zhuang Weiran's side, "Professor."
"Mr. Pierce, you came just in time." Zhuang Weiran put the document in his hand, "Then today I will have Mr. Pierce as my assistant for my academic report, is it okay?"
Pierce froze for a moment, then nodded ecstatically, "Of course Professor, I think I can do this job well."
"Young man, not bad." Director Yang patted Zhuang Weiran on the shoulder, "You really are the first person to make such a big battle."
Zhuang Weiran smiled faintly, but did not speak.
"Dad, Uncle Yang." Zhuang Weiran looked at another Director Chu, and He Zhenguo introduced, "Director Chu, the director of Longchen District."
"Uncle Chu, you go in first, I have a few words with Mr. Pierce."
"Look at the time." Director Yang pointed to the watch, but Director Chu said, "Xiao He, your father and I are friends, so I will call you Xiao He."
"Isn't this your student? You call him Mr.?"
"My student is an English gentleman." Zhuang Weiran said with a smile, "You two uncles, go in first."
"Dad, I want to invite Mr. Pierce to dinner at home tonight?"
"Okay." He Zhenguo nodded, "It's almost time, hurry up."
Several people walked into the auditorium, Zhuang Weiran cleared his throat and said, "When did Mr. Pierce arrive?"
"Yesterday." Pierce said shyly, "I originally wanted to find the professor and sent you an email, but you haven't replied to me, thinking you were busy, and I wanted to come here to try my luck."
"How about staying with other professors?"
Pierce frowned, "Professor, I still want to learn from you."
"But I'm at Dragon City University now, not Princeton. Besides, Professor Deligne is very nice? If you don't like it, I'll send an email to Professor Feffman or other professors?"
"Professor." Pierce said sincerely, "I just want to learn from you."
"Even if I come to Dragon City University, I just want to study with you. After you leave, I have a lot of questions I want to ask you. Professor Deligne is very good and has done a lot of calculations for me. He also guided me There are many things, but I still want to learn from you. You are my idol, and I don't want to learn from other professors except you."
"I, I came with a recommendation letter from Princeton University." Pierce carefully took out a letter and handed it to Zhuang Weiran.
Zhuang Weiran was still a little surprised, this guy didn't make a mistake, right?He left Pierce to Professor Deligne, a top mathematics master. Unexpectedly, this guy would rather go to Dragon City University to study mathematics than to study mathematics with him.
When Professor Deligne came, he smiled at the two of them, "Zhuang, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Professor Deligne."
He shook his head and said with a smile, "This guy told me many times that I should write him a letter of recommendation. He went to Longcheng University to study mathematics with you. Zhuang, Pierce is indeed a very good student. I I hope you can teach him well."
"Perhaps, he still wants to learn from you after he graduates with a Ph. .Although we at Princeton University do not want to let such a good student go, you have also seen that he must be a student with you. He has even begged Professor Wiles to write him a letter. Letter of recommendation to Dragon City University."
"None of us could hold him back, so we wrote him this letter of recommendation."
Zhuang Weiran couldn't laugh or cry, "Thank you, Professor Deligne, I also think that Mr. Pierce will be an outstanding mathematician in the future, and I will be proud of him."
Pierce was exposed and smiled shyly beside him.
Professor Deligne looked at the time, "Professor Zhuang, it's getting late, I think we should go in."
