After the interview, Qin took Ning Qingyun and went to thank Mr. Faltings.

After all, if this old gentleman hadn't been working on their paper, the paper on the proof of Polignac's conjecture would not have been published so quickly. And the early publication of the paper undoubtedly added two points to today's award.

chips.

Faltings had just finished his conversation with an old white man and looked a little serious, but when he talked with Qin Ke, he smiled again.

He really admired these two young people, regardless of nationality or age.

Faltings smiled and said: "You don't have to thank me. On the contrary, I want to thank you for letting me see a different and wonderful scenery in the world of mathematics. Although you said you would try to challenge the great subject of N-S equations, I still recommend that you

Focus on the Riemann Hypothesis. I think within a few decades, you two are the most likely to completely crack the Riemann Hypothesis. I really hope that one day, we can fully see the mystery of the Riemann Hypothesis. For those of us who are pure mathematicians

For me, it’s probably the happiest thing!”

Qin Ke solemnly said: "Don't worry, we will not give up the Riemann Hypothesis."

Faltings raised the red wine in his hand again: "You will probably receive gifts later. Congratulations in advance, especially Qin Ke. Come on in August."

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun knew what the so-called "gift" was after more than ten minutes.

The American Mathematical Society (AMS) sent staff to attend the dinner, and along with them were certificates conferring honorary memberships to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.

Because formal members of AMS require American nationality or teaching in the United States (including former teaching), AMS often directly grants honorary membership status to outstanding mathematicians with foreign nationalities who do not teach in the United States, which is a kind of flexibility.

The rights of honorary members are better than those of formal members. Not only can they participate in various awards of AMS, they do not need to attend regular members' gatherings, nor do they need to pay annual membership fees.

But often only outstanding foreign mathematicians who meet the following three conditions at the same time will be favored by AMS and awarded honorary membership status.

First, they have published more than two professional papers in top journals, second, they are quite famous internationally, and third, they have been recommended by well-known local mathematicians in the United States.

Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun can undoubtedly meet these three conditions. By the way, they were recommended by Faltings and Linden-Strauss, the two elders of the Philippine Prize.

Qin Ke knew that joining AMS was a necessary condition for participating in the Kohl Award. There was nothing to lose anyway, so he signed with Ning Qingyun and accepted the status of this honorary member of AMS.

As for what Faltings said about "Come on in August," Qin Ke speculated that he was referring to the Kohl Prize.

The Cole Prize is different from the Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics. It is not selected through the performance of academic seminars, but directly selected by the American Mathematical Society from members and honorary members. The selection is based on the academic achievements achieved in recent years.

Faltings is one of the judges who will participate in the selection. After all, with his status in the international mathematics community, he can speak to the IMU International Mathematical Union, let alone the American Mathematical Society.

His words of "come on" made Qin Ke smell the sweet fragrance of another success that was very likely to come.

…

Just when Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were chatting with a group of senior figures in the international mathematics community at the award ceremony dinner, it was still less than nine o'clock in the morning on the other side of the ocean.

At Yuanzhou University in Yuanzhou City, Qin Ke's cousin Shen Tiantian was preparing to attend class.

This is an advanced mathematics course. As the best university in Huahai Province, Yuanzhou University has a lot of academic pressure. Shen Tiantian's finance major cannot escape the two basic mathematics courses of advanced mathematics and probability.

.

Shen Tiantian rubbed her temples tiredly. Compared with high school mathematics, advanced math in college was several times more difficult, and the professor taught quickly. Shen Tiantian was pretty good at math in high school, but now it's a bit difficult to learn.

A feeling of powerlessness.

She couldn't help but think of her cousin Qin Ke, and a sense of frustration came to her heart.

Obviously, the gap between Qin Ming and Qin Ke was not that big when he was in junior high school and high school. Who would have thought that after his sophomore year in high school, his cousin's math level skyrocketed like a rocket. After he got to college, it was even more exaggerated. He simply soared into the sky.

Yunxiao solved world-class mathematical problems one after another and won the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award...

Alas, they both have the blood of the Shen family, so why is the IQ gap so obvious?

No, it seems that I and Qin Ke are only cousins ​​in name, and actually have no blood relationship. Oh, then it's okay. It's normal to have a difference in IQ.

Suddenly I heard a girl talking in the front row, with a sweet voice, asking a boy a question.

Shen Tiantian glanced over subconsciously and recognized the boy as He Gongwei, the top student with the best academic performance in the class.

He Gongwei is tall, thin, fair and elegant, and he is quite handsome. He is usually quiet and aloof, but his math scores are super good. He can even compete with the top students in the math department. Several girls in the class are

I secretly like him, but I have heard that He Gongwei only likes female top students with excellent grades and has never looked down on the girls in his class.

Shen Tiantian is not interested in such an arrogant academic master, because it always reminds her of her cousin unconsciously.

When will that guy Qin Ke come out with an easy-to-learn advanced mathematics textbook...

Shen Tiantian was thinking wildly when she suddenly heard her best friend next to her scream excitedly.

"Yeah, yeah, Shen Tiantian, my boyfriend has won another grand prize. This time it's an international grand prize! It's called the Mathematics Breakthrough Prize, and there's a bonus of 3 million US dollars!"

There was a commotion all around, and several students asked: "Really? Qin Shen won the prize again? Where did you get the news?"

"Looking at the hot searches, the first one is that Bibo also said that he stood up bravely at the academic seminar and exposed a bad academic plagiarism incident! Ahhhh, my boyfriend is so handsome and has a sense of justice!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shen Tiantian looked at her best friend's nymphomaniacal look, stroked her forehead and said, "Is that kid Qin Ke on the hot search again?"

"Tiantian, don't call my male idol 'that boy', it's too disrespectful to him!" her best friend immediately said with her hands on her hips angrily.

When she first entered college, Shen Tiantian didn't tell her classmates that Qin Ke was her cousin because she didn't want to take advantage of her cousin. However, there was a best friend in the same dormitory who was also a big fan of Qin Ke. She kept saying "My boy" all day long.

"God", Shen Tiantian is even more embarrassed to say that your boyfriend is my cousin. But every time she sees her best friend like Qin Ke like this, she feels a little dumbfounded.

"I said, Sisi, your male god already has a goddess, and she is very beautiful and elegant. You have no chance at all." Shen Tiantian thought of the extremely beautiful girl she saw during the Chinese New Year.

The girl is a little sore and confused.

"Ning Qingyun, I know. She also won the Breakthrough Award in Mathematics this time. It's awesome. I like their CP the most. It's so sweet! And whether my boyfriend has a girlfriend or not, he is always the same in my heart.

It’s the most perfect!”

Shen Tiantian: "..."

Help, how to break the generation gap with idiot fans.

There were footsteps approaching again, and someone called out: "Shen Tiantian."

Seeing that it was the counselor coming over, Shen Tiantian stood up and said, "Teacher Guo, do you have anything to do with me?"

The counselor coughed lightly and asked a little embarrassedly: "Shen Tiantian, can you help me ask Qin Ke for an autograph? My child likes him very much and has been making trouble recently... If you can write a sentence before the signature

'To give it to Zou Zhuoer, wishing her academic progress' would be perfect. Hey, I also know that Qin Ke will be very busy just after he won the grand prize, and he is abroad, so I can just ask him to take a photo of his signature and send it over..."

The corners of Shen Tiantian's mouth twitched, but the counselor opened her mouth and she couldn't refuse.

"I know. I'll contact him tonight and try to get him to write that sentence."

"Thank you for my child!" The counselor left with satisfaction, but the classroom became quiet. Shen Tiantian suddenly found that countless eyes were focused on her, like a pack of wolves seeing their prey...

Her scalp was numb, and she was trying to find a reason to sneak out without even caring about the upcoming class, but her best friend grabbed her and said excitedly: "Tiantian, do you know my boyfriend? Are you familiar with him?"

Shen Tiantian sighed, knowing that she could no longer hide it, so she could only say: "Qin Ke is my cousin."

Sure enough, the atmosphere in the classroom suddenly became heated, and a large number of girls gathered around: "Tiantian, it turns out that Qin Shen is your cousin, why didn't you tell me earlier? Do you have any photos of him in your hand? Recent photos and when you were a child.

Any photos are fine! I really want to see if my boyfriend was cute when he was a child!"

"Tiantian, my birthday is in two days. I want my boyfriend to say happy birthday to me. Please help me."

"I don't ask for much, just some secrets from the male god."

"Tiantian, when will God Qin return to Yuanzhou? Can you take us to meet him..."

Suddenly a boy squeezed over and asked, "Classmate Shen, are you really Qin Ke's cousin?"

It turned out to be He Gongwei, the arrogant male top student in the class who was particularly good at math!

This was the first time that Shen Tiantian saw him taking the initiative to talk to her. Seeing his serious face, Shen Tiantian felt inexplicably the pressure from the top student, and she nodded nervously.

He Gongwei pushed up his glasses, hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and put on a flattering smile: "Classmate Shen, can you help ask Qin Shen when he will start recruiting students? I want to take his graduate degree in the future! Uh...

How about...I treat you to dinner as a thank you?"

The corner of Shen Tiantian's mouth twitched, feeling that this guy's halo of being a top student was shattered into pieces.

…

At the same time, Shen Tiantian's grandfather and Qin Ke's grandfather Shen Tieshan were sitting in the teahouse with several former colleagues, drinking morning tea.

Shen Tieshan's life is much easier now. Qin Xiaoke's grades have skyrocketed, so he doesn't have to worry about it. Regarding the Green Lemon Foundation, Secretary-General Huo Baoyan and her team have also done a very good job. Shen Tieshan only needs to grasp the big picture.

Direction, review reports and financial statements, and occasionally go to the project site for field research.

He is older, and Qin Ke no longer agrees that he often travels long distances to backward mountainous areas to follow up on student aid projects, not to mention that the second phase of the student aid project is still in the distant prairie, and Huo Baoyan's team has moved to work in the capital.

At this time, Shen Tieshan was more free. Except for going to Qingning Stone Primary School every month to understand the follow-up effects of the assistance, he had nothing to do.

So Shen Tieshan often gathered and chatted with old friends and colleagues from the academic world.

"Come on, Lao Shen, I haven't seen you drinking or smoking recently. Do you like drinking tea instead?" An old professor couldn't help but ask when he saw Shen Tieshan slowly sipping Pu'er tea.

"Forget it, it's not my grandson Qin Ke! Knowing that I was not in good health, he actually created a set of health-preserving exercises by himself and forced me to learn them. He also gave me a recipe and asked me to follow the recipe. In the end,

What's abominable is that he asked my daughter and son-in-law to search my house for all the cigarettes and alcohol! That brat! He doesn't know how to respect the elderly and care for the young at all!"

Shen Tieshan pretended to "scold" his most proud grandson, but the corners of his mouth secretly curled up.

The old man has now cultivated himself into the old Versailles.

Another old professor next to him said with envy: "Oh, Qin Ke still has the ability to create health-preserving skills? Old Shen, just be satisfied. If you have such an outstanding grandson, I will laugh in my dreams, let alone care about you like this.

I have created a health-preserving skill just for you!"
