Volume 2 Academic Career Chapter 788: The Mathematicians’ Conference Opens!
Although Chen Haining asked the reason, Chen Zhou did not explain much. Instead, he told him some ideas about construction.
After the site in Luzhou was determined and all the tasks were explained clearly, Chen Zhou returned to Yanjing.
When he came back, Chen Haining did not stay with Chen Zhou, but stayed in Luzhou to start the preliminary preparations.
However, because a lot of effort had already been spent before, it was actually a lot easier when we officially started planning for construction.
Moreover, with the successful case of Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences, the entire preliminary preparation work also seemed to be extremely smooth.
After returning to Yenching, Chen Zhou began preparations for the Mathematicians' Congress.
Of course, the current Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences has hundreds of people, so Chen Zhou certainly doesn't need to worry about the specific preparatory work. He only needs to put forward his own requirements.
Speaking of which, in the work of recruiting personnel for the institute, Li Zhenbang's nephew, Li Yongji, who praised Chen Zhou on a TV talk show and said that he "enlightened the people and led the whole nation to learning", really helped a lot.
Not only did he join the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences, but he also took full responsibility for the recruitment of researchers.
On this point, Chen Zhou is still very grateful to Li Zhenbang. Although he did not recommend researchers to him directly, recommending his nephew to him was the biggest recommendation.
During the preparation for the Mathematicians' Conference, Chen Zhou seemed to have some free time again.
Of course, with more time, Chen Zhou naturally devoted all his energy to the research project. Whether it was the paper on deviant materials, the last task on the road to maximum level in physics, or the remaining 25% of the "Kuafu" engineering research, they were all research that he had to solve.
In addition, Chen Zhou called his students over to give them some guidance.
When the students heard the news, they were very moved. They thought Chen Zhou had forgotten about them, but they didn't expect that their mentor still cared about them.
However, this was their last guidance before graduation. On the one hand, it was to check the research progress of the topic previously assigned by Chen Zhou, and on the other hand, it was to arrange their graduation thesis .
Although Chen Zhou adopted a laissez-faire approach most of the time, these graduate students were still very capable, and Chen Zhou provided them with a lot of guidance in the early stages.
Therefore, Chen Zhou was still satisfied with the completion of their research project.
As for whether the time for arranging the graduation thesis was rushed and whether there would be problems in the defense, these were not within Chen Zhou's consideration and did not cause any difficulties for these graduate students.
After all, with a big boss like Chen Zhou in charge, as long as Chen Zhou is satisfied, everyone else will be satisfied too.
Time flies by in this fulfilling and busy life.
When all the students taught by Chen Zhou passed the defense and graduated successfully, the papers on deviant materials were also completed. The research topic of the full-level upgrade task in physics was carried out smoothly, and the research on the "Kuafu" project was further deepened.
Regarding the research topic for the full-level upgrade task in physics, Chen Zhou finally determined that it was the study of dark matter and dark energy under the grand unified theory.
This is not a new research direction, but how to achieve breakthrough research in this direction based on this cosmic model under the grand unified theory is a way to open up a new era of physics.
During this period, Chen Haining also completed the preliminary preparations in Luzhou, returned to Yanjing, and began to prepare for the Mathematicians' Congress.
It is also because of Chen Haining's return that Chen Zhou can do research and guide students more easily.
In addition, Yang Yiyi has also completed her graduation project. After declining invitations from many research institutes, she has returned to China and joined a domestic research institute.
From the beginning to the end, Yang Yiyi never mentioned that she wanted to join the Yenching Institute . She even kindly comforted Chen Zhou that she was more suitable for an ordinary research institute now and would consider other options after achieving certain results.
Chen Zhou naturally praised Yang Yiyi a lot and also rewarded her as much as possible.
Unlike Chen Zhou's busy state, the academic world during this period can be said to be unusually lively.
It was all because on the day of the delivery ceremony of the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences, all the news was too explosive.
In particular, the participation of many big names in the academic community can be regarded as an earthquake in the academic community and has triggered great heated discussions.
Because the academic landscape has changed.
Most people have begun to wonder whether the world's academic center will shift.
Because this is no longer just a question of whether the world's mathematical center will shift.
However, thinking about it is one thing, and if this problem really becomes a reality, it seems that no one is able to stop it.
After all, China has Chen Zhou, and this is a basic fact that cannot be changed.
In addition to this, there is the Mathematicians' Conference announced by Chen Zhou. Everyone wants to see what Chen Zhou plans to do at the Mathematicians' Conference.
Naturally, there are also people who expect Chen Zhou to be unable to do anything. In that case, the reputation of Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences will be damaged from the very beginning, and Chen Zhou's reputation will be in trouble.
Amidst this anticipation and speculation from all walks of life, the World Congress of Mathematicians hosted by the Yenching Institute for Theoretical Sciences has finally arrived at its opening date.
June 23, 2020 is the date for many college entrance examination students to check their scores, and it is also the last hurdle to face the college entrance examination.
However, compared with previous years, many candidates on this day were not too nervous, nor did they have an urgent desire to check their scores. Instead, they were all paying attention to the Mathematicians' Conference that was being broadcast live via video.
The changes in these candidates were not simply due to the holding of the Mathematicians' Conference, but because of Chen Zhou.
With Chen Zhou's influence over the years, the Chinese nation's desire to learn has become increasingly strong, especially among students.
Everyone knows where their direction is and is moving in their own direction. The college entrance examination is just an experience.
As long as you keep moving forward in your own direction, the score is just a feedback in this experience and it is something you are destined to gain.
At this moment, the venue of the Mathematical Congress can no longer be described as crowded.
I thought the attraction of holidays in China was people watching, but I never thought that one day this adjective would be used in an academic conference.
Of course, this is outside the main venue, and not everyone can enter the main venue.
Similar to Chen Zhou’s last lecture, multiple screens were set up outside the main venue to broadcast live the conference proceedings inside the venue.
Naturally, there are the most people watching in front of these curtains.
This also caused many young foreign mathematicians to sigh, saying that if they had not come earlier, they would not even have a place to set up a stall.
But after expressing their feelings, they quickly joined the crowd and gathered in front of the curtain.
At this moment, the screen showed Chen Zhou announcing the opening ...
