865 Magical Effect of the Energy Medicine

However, for some reason, Lu Zhou himself wasn’t interested in enlarging the value of ε.

Almost every scholar in the fields of analytic number theory and algebraic geometry were researching the value of epsilon.

This was almost like when Professor Zhang Yitang first proved the weak form of the twin prime conjecture and introduced the large sieve method, attracting half of the analytic number theory scholars…

A five-star hotel near Jin Ling University’s old campus.

Because this hotel was nearby and had good public transportation, it was often used to host various domestic academic conferences. The report dinner was also set here.

More than two thousand people attended this dinner banquet.

Some of the scholars didn’t show up. They decided to lock themselves in their room and research Lu Zhou’s hyperelliptic curve analysis tool. Even then, the number of guests that showed up was still a huge number.

After some intense preparations, the dinner party began.

At the dinner party, an old balding professor clearly had a bit too much to drink. He stood up with a full glass of red wine in his hand. He held the table to maintain balance as he joked around with his friends.

“The food here is wonderful… God, how come they’ve never thought about holding the mathematician congress here? I propose to hold the next mathematician congress here!”

Nearby, a drunk professor from Moscow said, “The next Congress of Mathematicians is going to be in St. Petersburg. That’s the result of the vote, I clearly remember you voting!”

“There was a vote? Oh, I guess I did indeed vote…” The professor laughed and said, “Okay then, I propose the next International Congress of Mathematicians to be in Jinling!”

Surprisingly, this old man’s drunk proposal resonated with a lot of people.

“Haha, I agree!”

“I agree as well! This is a beautiful place, I haven’t had enough yet.”

“I don’t care…”

“To my friends in Jinling! This is a beautiful city, especially that auditorium. Oh my, you can feel the academic atmosphere the moment you walk in.”

Dean Qin listened to the drunken mathematicians kissing his a**, and he could feel his heart rate increasing.

Holding the congress of mathematicians in Jinling?!

Forget about the congress of mathematicians, having the Chinese Mathematicians Conference here would be enough.

Judging by the number of people who were qualified to conduct a 45-minute report at the IMO conference, it seemed like the Chinese mathematics community had only just joined into the big family of international mathematicians. Even though they had an excellent scholar like Lu Zhou, Lu Zhou was just one person.

If Jinling could host the next International Congress of Mathematicians, it would be extremely beneficial to the Chinese mathematics community!

…

The hour hand reached nine o’clock. The banquet slowly came to an end. The guests gradually left the venue and returned to their hotels, in hopes of sleeping off the alcohol.

Actually, both Lu Zhou and Jin Ling University didn’t expect all of the thesis doubts to be answered in the report.

Even without the other big names in mathematics, Faltings alone was a tough opponent.

If Professor Faltings’ questions were too tricky, Lu Zhou might have to spend a day or two to come up with an answer. Therefore, Jin Ling University booked a two-night hotel stay for all of the guests, in case of a second report.

However, everything went surprisingly well. The report didn’t even go overtime. Even Lu Zhou was shocked by his abilities, and he actually answered all of the questions in time.

The report was over…

But the mathematicians who came to Jinling weren’t in a rush to leave.

After all, the money for the hotel booking was included in the registration fee. It would be a waste for them to leave now. Not to mention this kind of conference was often reimbursed by their respective institutes. It would be a shame to give up this travel opportunity.

Not to mention, most theoretical researchers loved to travel. This was obvious from the locations chosen in the past ICM conferences.

The locations chosen were all tourist and vacation hotspots.

The next morning, some people rented a mountain bike and rode up Purple Mountain with their backpacks and water bottles. Other scholars weren’t interested in physical activities. They decided to organize an academic conference in the hotel lobby. They exchanged research ideas while sitting on the hotel sofas.

After all, it was rare for so many big names in various research fields to be gathered in one place.

They happened to also be spontaneous people.

If Lu Zhou knew about this, even he would never miss this opportunity.

Unfortunately, he pulled an all-nighter last night. He was busy organizing his thesis as he wanted to upload his hyperelliptic curve analysis thesis on arXiv as soon as possible.

This was mainly because there was a lot of misinformation online.

For those knowledgeable experts, they obviously wouldn’t be affected by the misinformation because they could easily identify the problems. But for those less experienced, it would be a waste of time for them to study a wrong method.

Lu Zhou typed out the final words and leaned back in his chair.

“It’s finally done!”

Lu Zhou sighed in relief and rubbed his dark eye bags. He took out an energy medicine from the system space and took a sip.

The sweet liquid spread across his taste buds, while the minty scent traveled up his nose.

Lu Zhou took out his phone and pointed the camera at himself. He couldn’t help but notice that his eye bags were gone.

“That’s pretty magical.”

Unfortunately, this item was the same as the nitrogen shield, in that it couldn’t be reverse-engineered. Otherwise, Lu Zhou would have gladly taken this thing to the Institute of Biochemistry for further research.

Lu Zhou looked at the bottle gradually turning into dust. He shook his hands and placed his attention back onto his computer.

He had completed the thesis. All he had to do know was to upload.

He first went to arXiv and uploaded the preprint. Then, he wrote an email and attached the thesis. The email title was “Supplementary notes on the Quasi Riemann hypothesis”.

He sent this email to the editorial department of Annual Mathematics, with Vera’s name written down as his collaborator. Lu Zhou stretched his back and stood up from the office chair.

Even though he had just pulled an all nigher, because of the energy medicine, he was full of energy. His body was overflowing with adrenaline.

He was planning on exercising at the gym and sweating it out, but he suddenly received a call.

Lu Zhou picked up the phone.

“Hello?”

“It’s me, Faltings… Are you free right now?”

“I am, why?”

“I heard the view from the Purple Mountain is quite nice… I know it’s nearby, but I don’t have a car here… so…”

Faltings seemed like he didn’t want to admit that he didn’t know the way, so the phone call went silent for a while.

However, in the end, the stubborn old man coughed and awkwardly asked, “How do I get there?”

Lu Zhou nearly laughed out loud.

We’re living in the 21st century.

How do you not know how to use Google?

What about Uber?

Lu Zhou shook his head and cleared his throat.

“Okay then, wait for me at the school gate.

“I’m free this afternoon, I’ll take you.”
