Omnipotent Data

Chapter 400

Cheng Nuo, who was overwhelmed by the chatter of the big bosses, found an empty seat and ate breakfast in a dull mood.

I thought the big guys were talking about which professor was hired by that university, and who and who published high-end academic achievements in a certain field.

But I didn't expect to talk about the League of Legends, the three-body magic horse...

This is completely inconsistent with the painting style of the big guys, right? !

After breakfast, Cheng Nuo finally stopped worrying about it.

Sneaking back to the tenth floor, Cheng Nuo knocked on Tan Weiwei's door.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, Cheng Nuo."

Pushing the door open, Tan Weiwei was sitting on the dressing table putting on makeup.

Tan Weiwei put her long hair up, put on a short wig, and then put on a pair of black-rimmed eyes with thick lenses.

"We look a little too young, and we stand out among a group of people in their 30s and 40s, so it's better to dress up." Tan Weiwei explained to Cheng Nuo.

Tan Weiwei got up, put the fake beard prepared in advance on Cheng Nuo's chin, looked it up and down, felt something was wrong, and put on the spare glasses she had prepared for Cheng Nuo. "Hey, it's much more pleasing to the eye this way."

Cheng Nuo chatted for a while in Tan Weiwei's room, and when the time came to 7:45, the two rushed to the auditorium on the first floor.

Since both of them were dressed as waiters, they easily sneaked into the auditorium. However, there were no seats for them in the auditorium.

The two of them didn't care, it would be nice if they could get in. Even if there were vacant seats, the two currently playing the roles of waiters would not dare to sit!

The two stood in the corner, waiting for the opening ceremony to begin.

Outside the auditorium, participating mathematicians entered the venue one after another.

Cheng Nuo kept staring at the entrance of the auditorium, looking at the mathematicians who only existed in papers.

In today's mathematics world, the first echelon is formed by four countries headed by the United States, England, Germany, and Switzerland. Therefore, among the more than 2,000 mathematicians invited to participate in this International Congress of Mathematicians, more than 1,000 mathematicians are from these four countries.

Therefore, most of the people sitting in the auditorium are Western faces.

In Huaguo, which is currently between the second echelon and the third echelon, only more than 80 mathematicians have been invited.

Professor Fang Ruoyu, Cheng Nuo's tutor at Tsinghua University, also got an invitation for the publication of the paper on proving the weak BSD conjecture.

Seeing Professor Fang and two young mathematicians in their early thirties walking in, Cheng Nuo really wanted to go up and say hello, but after thinking about it, Cheng Nuo held back.

If the identity is exposed on the first day because of this, it will be a blood loss.

When the time came to 7:55, most of the mathematicians had entered, except of course the top few.

Although the International Mathematical Union did not publicly announce the list of participating mathematicians, Cheng Nuo still learned a lot of information from Tan Weiwei's uncle.

There will be thirteen Philippine award winners participating in this conference.

Including the four Fields Medals that will be awarded soon, the total is seventeen.

This lineup can be described as quite luxurious.

It is as powerful as Princeton University, with a century-old history, but there are only fifteen Philippine Award winners.

In the first row of the auditorium, there are more than 20 seats. In addition to the 13 Philippine Prize winners, there are several bigwigs from the International Mathematical Union.

In the second row are several mathematicians nominated for this year's Philippine Awards.

……………

At eight o'clock, in the anticipation of everyone, the 29th International Congress of Mathematicians officially opened.

The first item of the opening ceremony is naturally the speech link as usual.

Mr. Kenneth Halstead, the current president of the International Union of Mathematicians, gave a short speech and summarized the many achievements in the field of mathematics in the past four years.

At the same time, I would like to express my high praise and affirmation to the thriving and thriving research work in today's mathematics community, and hope that mathematicians from all over the world will make persistent efforts and make greater contributions to the development of the world's mathematics community.

Cheng Nuo almost rolled his eyes after listening to the president's speech.

The chairman's official accent is comparable to that of some domestic politicians!

After the chairman finished speaking, a member of the US government spoke a few words on behalf of the country. The general content is to say what kind of preferential policies the US government has arranged for these mathematicians. Welcome to live in the US for a long time. Of course, if you change to the US nationality, you are most welcome.

An hour later, when Cheng Nuo's upper and lower eyelids were fighting, the boring speech session finally came to an end.

Cheng Nuo immediately perked up.

Next, the highlight of this year's Mathematicians Conference is the awarding of awards.

In fact, the so-called award is not the Fields Medal. However, because the Philippine Award is too representative and has the highest gold content among all mathematics awards, it is well known by everyone.

In addition to the Fields Medal, this conference also awarded three or four awards, including the Wanlinna Award in the field of information science, the Gauss Award in the field of applied mathematics, and the Lilawoti Award for Outstanding Contribution to Mathematics Public Promotion.

As the highlight, the Fields Medal must be presented at the end.

Cheng Nuo folded his arms in the corner and watched quietly.

The Wanlinna Award in the field of information science was won by two mathematicians from New York University in the United States and Cambridge University in Yingguo.

The Gauss Award, named after the great mathematician Gauss, was won by a mathematician in the island country who specializes in mathematical physics.

The Lilawoti Award was awarded to a young professor in Switzerland.

The Fields Medal is awarded by the President of the International Union of Mathematicians.

Mr. Kenneth stood on the podium, holding an envelope in his hand, "The name of the Fields Medal winner is written in this envelope in my hand. Now, let's open him."

Mr. Kenneth opened the envelope, took out a card inside, and said loudly, "Now I announce to you that the mathematician who won the 29th Fields Medal is..."

"Professor Francisco from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich!"

"Professor Kesay from Princeton University!"

"Professor Bikar from Cambridge University in Yingguo!"

"Professor Sun Zeyuan from the National University of Singapore!"

Not surprisingly, no Chinese mathematician has won the Philippine Prize.

Wei Shen and Yun Shen, who have been placed with high hopes in China, will not have hope until the next session at least.

Under the envious eyes of everyone, the four award-winning mathematicians got up and walked onto the stage of the auditorium.

The age limit for the Philippine Award is set at the age of forty, so the four of them don't look very old. But his achievements in mathematics are no less than those of some veteran mathematicians.

Needless to say, Francisco from the University of Zurich in Switzerland, as long as the current momentum is maintained, it may not be impossible to become the number one person in the mathematics world in more than ten years.

The other three, except for the one from the National University of Singapore who is a bit weak, the remaining two are also one of the leaders in their respective fields.

With the Philippine Prize in hand, the four of them will be able to take their status as mathematicians to a higher level.
