Chapter 1633 1635 [Blockbuster]
Fermat's conjecture, together with the four-color theory and Goldbach's conjecture, is known as the three century-old problems in the field of plane geometry, and has been plagued by mathematics.
The main reason for the trouble is that there are no tools to prove these conjectures. It is like someone proposing that there are ghosts in the world, but if there are no practical tools to catch ghosts, then ghosts cannot be proved to exist or not.
The conjecture proposed by Xiang Nan just provides a powerful tool for people to prove Fermat's conjecture.
As long as it cannot be proved that the conjecture proposed by Xiang Nan is wrong, then Fermat’s Big Conjecture is correct, and from then on Fermat’s Big Conjecture becomes Fermat’s Last Theorem.
At the beginning, Xiang Nan's conjecture did not attract enough attention. After all, there were many well-known mathematicians at the time who said they had proved Fermat's conjecture, but none of them passed the argument.
In the field of mathematics, Xiang Nan is still a person without any name at all. His most well-known identity is just a writer of popular novels, and he has never made any contribution in the field of mathematics.
Therefore, when he came up, he said that he had solved a difficult problem that had plagued the mathematics community for hundreds of years, and almost no one would believe it.
However, when the editors of the French "Logic" journal reviewed the manuscript and invited several well-known French mathematicians to jointly demonstrate, they jointly made the decision to publish this paper.
The release of the "Logic" journal proves that Xiang Nan's conjecture is not just talking about it, but a very reasonable thing. After that, mathematicians from Britain, France, Germany, the United States, the Netherlands, Italy and many other countries read this paper one after another and gave positive opinions.
They all believed that Xiang Nan's conjecture was very breakthrough, and pointed out the way to thoroughly prove Fermat's conjecture. However, Xiang Nan's conjecture requires a lot of calculations.
With the current mathematical technology, it is not possible at all, so there is no way to fully prove Fermat's conjecture. But it is not easy to point the way.
After all, this mathematical problem has troubled the mathematics community for hundreds of years. Not to mention pointing out the way, it is not even clear which direction to explore.
Therefore, Xiang Nan's conjecture is very groundbreaking, and it can be said to be quite remarkable.
It is precisely because of this that Xiang Nan, who was originally unknown in the academic circle, became a famous figure in the industry overnight by virtue of his breakthrough creation in the field of Fermat's big conjecture. A sensation!
Because his achievements are so high, even the foreign media can't pretend to be deaf and dumb, and reported them one after another.
"The Fermat conjecture that has plagued the mathematics world for hundreds of years is expected to make a major breakthrough~"
"Chinese mathematician Xu Wenqiang proposed a new theory to demonstrate Fermat's conjecture, which is highly affirmed by the academic circle~"
"The academic community praised the new theory proposed by the Chinese mathematician Xu Wenqiang, and named it [Xu's Conjecture]!"
For a while, Xiang Nan not only became famous in the industry, but even people who had nothing to do with him heard of his name.
…
As for the domestic media, it has been reprinted, widely reported and praised.
"Mr. Xu Wenqiang, a Chinese mathematician, solved a century-old problem in mathematics~"
"My mathematician, Mr. Xu Wenqiang, is famous overseas, and the new conjectures proposed have been affirmed by many experts!"
"Our country's talented scholars win glory for the country and put forward new theories, which are expected to solve Fermat's conjecture!"
Since the Opium War, the mountains and rivers have fallen, the territory has been divided, and the people of the Li people have suffered a lot. Aspiring young people and enlightened gentry are all heartbroken.
It's a pity that the big powers are really tyrannical, leading by a large margin in the fields of science and technology, industry, and culture, and there is no way to catch up, so that many people in the country feel ashamed and ashamed.
"Mr. Xu Wenqiang is really amazing. Fermat's big conjecture was not confirmed even by Euler and Gauss. Unexpectedly, it was deciphered by Mr. Xu."
"Mr. Xu Wenqiang, is it possible that he is the one who wrote the poetry collections of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and "A Generation"? He is really a generalist, good at literature, and better at mathematics~"
"Mr. Xu is really a role model for my generation. I heard that he went to study in France because he wanted to serve the country with knowledge. I didn't expect that he really brought honor to the country. He is really worthy of my generation~"
The people of the country all spread the praises, and Xiang Nan's reputation became even greater in a short time.
…
Feng Jingyao was very moved when he heard about this.
He knew that Xiang Nan was talented, but he didn't expect him to be so talented.
What a conjecture, even the French didn't solve it, but he actually solved it. It's really amazing.
Now he is well-known in China. Also because he is her daughter's boyfriend, even taking him has face.
Even the French envoy in Hujiang looked up to him because of this, and was willing to vote for him in the next election of the Chinese director of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce.
This naturally made Feng Jingyao even happier, and he wished he could send a telegram to let Xiang Nan come back to help him stand up and cheer.
With him as an international celebrity on the platform, I believe his position in Hujiang will be higher and more consolidated.
However, when the telegram was about to be sent, it was stopped by him.
He knew that he had no binding force on Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan used his own money to study abroad. Moreover, after becoming an internationally renowned scholar, he will not be short of money to spend.
So his property may not be of interest to others.
Moreover, their status is different now, and their daughter and others can be regarded as high climbers.
After all, there are many rich people, but there are very few talented people.
Even if he gets rid of his daughter and changes his girlfriend, he won't be too surprised.
It is not without reason that the so-called getting rich and changing wives, and being rich and changing friends. The friendship between the poor and the poor should not be forgotten, and the wife of the poor will not go to court. The reason why it has been praised for a hundred years is because such examples are too rare.
So, he can't force Xiang Nan to do things now, but try to coax him as much as possible.
…
Xiang Nan proposed [Xu's Conjecture], and after making a sensation in the academic world, he soon received olive branches from universities and research institutes in various countries, inviting him to give lectures or work.
After screening, Xiang Nan finally chose to accept the invitation of Brown University in France to serve as a professor in the Department of Mathematics.
Brown University is one of the oldest universities in Europe. It was founded in the 12th century and has cultivated countless talents. Even Oxford University was founded by students of Brown University after graduating from France and returning to England, which shows its high status.
Feng Chengcheng came to France and also wanted to be admitted to Brown University. Xiang Nan's choice of Brown University also meant to serve as an outpost for her.
Brown University provided Xiang Nan with an annual salary of 20,000 francs, which is considered a very good salary. You know, the daily salary of an ordinary worker at that time was only thirty francs.
