Chapter 154 He is starting to show off (13)

Although Yan Xiaoxi was playing with her phone the whole time, she also listened to the two people showing off the whole time. She always felt that their pretense was too abrupt, the kind of forced pretense, far inferior to the invisible pretense of someone around her. In the field of pretense, those two people were at most novices.

At this moment, someone leaned close to her ear and asked cautiously, "Xixi, are these two pretending to be cool?"

Idiot
Is that even a question?
Yan Xiaoxi pursed her lips and said calmly, "It's about the same. But it's a bit abrupt, and he doesn't have much strength."

Chen Xiaoxin secretly looked at the two of them, and then asked cautiously: "Is it the case that in college, especially in an academic environment, whoever has the highest quality of articles and the highest impact factor is the undisputed number one?"

"Um"

“Because it’s the fairest thing to do.”

Yan Xiaoxi replied softly: "Good article production requires peer and anonymous review. Peer review means that the evaluator is very professional, and anonymity means that the evaluator and I are most likely not in the same institution, so there is no direct conflict of interest or nepotism."

"Finally, it's the value of the article." Yan Xiaoxi paused and continued to explain: "It's how much value it can create for the entire environment or even the market, and this value is your future worth. Even if you are excluded in the unit, it is easy to switch to another place. After all, the article follows the person."

Yan Xiaoxi still recognizes that articles, projects, and impact factors are the basis and basis for all selection. In her opinion, this is a very fair thing. After all, when ordinary people face those academic cliques, this is the only weapon that can defeat the academic cliques head-on.

Of course, there are always some problems, but anyone who enters this field and has real strength will more or less possess the most basic dignity and pride.

"Fool."

"When you go to college, you must produce two high-value papers a year." Yan Xiaoxi earnestly reminded him, "I'll give you a number of two PRLs a year. Is that okay for you?"

"PRL?"

“Physical Review Letters?”

Chen Xiaoxin frowned, a little hesitant, and said lightly: "I have done my homework in advance. Although this is one of the four top physics journals, I think the impact factor is too low. I think it is better to develop in the direction of RMP. An RMP article can be equivalent to several NS articles."

Yan Xiaoxi is going crazy. He hasn't even taken the college entrance examination yet, but he's already thinking about publishing an article in the most authoritative review journal in international physics. Even PRL doesn't look down on him. I really want to slap him hard in the face to wake him up.

"so."

"First, publish a few articles in Nature Physics. Although the impact factor is not high, it is a subsidiary of Nature after all. During this period, publish a few articles in PRL. When the time is right, directly put it on the cover of Nature!" Chen Xiaoxin said seriously: "Before the age of 25, become the youngest academician of the Academy of Sciences, and finally publish your own articles in RMP. Before the age of 30, win the Nobel Prize and the Fields Medal in the same year."

Speaking of which,
Chen Xiaoxin asked proudly: "What do you think?"

I think.
I feel like beating you to death!
What the hell is this? It's not so exaggerated even in my dreams. I might as well just go to Mars.

Yan Xiaoxi bit her lip tightly, glared at him fiercely, and said angrily: "You... just go to heaven, the earth can't accommodate you anymore, go away quickly and stop harming the world."

Chen Xiaoxin smiled shyly, secretly grabbed the beautiful girl's hand, and said gently: "I don't have the strength to harm the world, but...but to harm you, this is more than enough. I can't help it. I just like to see you being pissed off by me."

"roll roll roll"

"Stay away, ehhhh——"

Just when Yan Xiaoxi was getting angry and embarrassed, she suddenly couldn't help but let out a slight tremor, and a tingling sensation came from the palm of her hand. It attacked the deepest part of her soul, as if a pair of dexterous hands were gently plucking the most fragile strings in her heart.

I can't stand it!
I can’t stand it at all!

Faced with Chen Xiaoxin's bold move, the young girl Yan Xiaoxi immediately fell for him. However, just when she was overwhelmed with shyness, it suddenly stopped, like a water pump running at full capacity, which inexplicably stopped working, leaving a pool of water with nowhere to drain.

She couldn't stand it before, and now she feels very uncomfortable. But she can't lose her temper right away. She can only pinch his waist lightly to express her strong dissatisfaction with him, and then continue to play with her mobile phone. However, the seemingly quiet beautiful girl has actually been flooded deep in her heart.

At this time,

Several bigwigs arrived, including Director Zhang from Peking University’s Department of Mathematics.

The boring opening remarks made Chen Xiaoxin a little drowsy, and the speech that followed made him want to fall asleep. But the good news is that his slacking value is rising rapidly.

etc.
Maybe it can be done!
at the same time,

Yan Xiaoxi was playing with her cell phone openly. She had never had any interest in these so-called discussion meetings and was just minding her own business.

but
When her eyes accidentally glanced at someone next to her, she was immediately shocked.

What's going on with him?
Why are you so serious?

Something is wrong, twelve out of ten!

Yan Xiaoxi bit her lips tightly, leaned over to look at him and found something different: he actually fell asleep!
Really
A big headache idiot!
"I recently came up with a conjecture."

"This is based on the periodic tiling conjecture, and its difficulty is relatively general. I am announcing this conjecture below. If someone can solve this conjecture, I am willing to accept him as my closed student." said an energetic old man on the stage.

Although he is not a giant in the mathematics world, his reputation is already very high. In addition, he is an academician himself. If I become his last disciple, it means that I can at least avoid half of the detours in the field of mathematics in the future.

The huge resources of the individual are enough to push a person to the top.

Everyone off the field was eager to try, and each of them seemed to be full of energy, and it just so happened that it was the halftime break of the event.

"."

"Wake up. It's time to rest." Yan Xiaoxi gently nudged him with her elbow, but failed to wake him up.

Simple thinking, calm analysis.
The beautiful girl stood up and whispered in his ear, "It's time for tea break!"

As soon as the words fell,
A certain cute bad guy stood up instantly and walked straight towards the tea break area without even turning his head back.

Looking at his anxious figure, Yan Xiaoxi had a deep sense of powerlessness, but the same old saying still applies: the man you choose, even if he is a piece of shit, you have to swallow it with your nose pinched.

Since most people were solving the conjecture, there were almost no people at the tea break area. This made Chen Xiaoxin very happy. He ate a lot with his plate.
The staff nearby were all shocked. Is this the reincarnation of a starving ghost?
After he was full and satisfied, Chen Xiaoxin returned to his seat. At this time, he finally saw the math problem on the screen and observed that everyone was solving it.

"what's the situation?"

"Why is everyone working on the questions?" Chen Xiaoxin asked Yan Xiaoxi beside him with a confused look on his face.

The beautiful girl rolled her eyes and said calmly, "An academician named Yu came up with a mathematical conjecture based on the periodic tiling conjecture, and he announced that whoever can solve this conjecture will be accepted as his student."

"how?"

"Is it awesome to be his student?" Chen Xiaoxin looked puzzled.

Yan Xiaoxi pursed her lips and answered in a low voice: "Being a student of a master in the field means that you can avoid many detours in the future and enjoy a lot of resources. For example, the academicians and ordinary professors who are corresponding authors have two different levels of manuscript acceptance."

"Oh"

"I understand. It's all about human relationships and social skills." Chen Xiaoxin looked up at the conjecture and instantly outlined a perfect solution in his mind. He designed the problem into a system of equations, in which the unknown variables represented all possible methods.

Huh?
This feeling This feeling
Chen Xiaoxin suddenly understood the significance of level two. Upgrading important basic skills to level two does not increase the amount of knowledge reserves, but improves the ability to apply knowledge.

This mathematical conjecture in front of you, if you have a basic mathematics level of one, will probably take some time. Even if you turn on brain overclocking, it will probably take a minute to come up with the answer.

But in the case of basic mathematics level 2, it is not so time-consuming and can be solved instantly without the help of brain overclocking.

“This conjecture.”

"It feels a bit difficult. At least I can't solve it now."

The Peking University student next to Chen Xiaoxin spoke to the Beijing Institute of Technology student sitting in front.

"Um"

"The basic principle of the periodic tiling conjecture is that no geometric figure can cover the entire plane non-periodically by itself, but Academician Meng's conjecture"

The BIT student frowned and muttered to himself, "There seems to be a kind of uncertainty. I don't know how to solve it, but if you give me a week, I should be able to find the answer."

A week?
This takes a week?
Then the simple conjecture is to decompose the continuous infinite point array into a finite point set.

The cute Chen Xiaoxin listened to the conversation between the two pretentious kings and felt a little puzzled. He thought that the big problem could be broken down into small problems and then solved one by one. Of course, a special set of equations was needed, otherwise it would be an infinite loop.

"Fool."

"Do you know?"

Yan Xiaoxi asked in a low voice.

Chen Xiaoxin nodded and was about to speak when the interrupted activity resumed.

The spirited old man held the microphone, with a smile on his face, and asked everyone in the audience: "Has anyone solved this conjecture?"

finished,

The scene was completely silent.

Student representatives from various universities looked helpless and bitter.

Yan Xiaoxi: (￣ー￣)
I. I suddenly have a strong feeling that some idiot is going to start showing off!

“I solved it!!!”
