I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

The review of "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture" by the three old men of the Institute for Advanced Study continued until the summer vacation, and the review has not yet been completed.

Shen Qi used this spare time to continue to improve his physics thesis.

In August, Shen Qi helped Ouye move from New York to Princeton.

It took Ouye three semesters to obtain a master's degree from the Department of Mathematics of Columbia University. In the future, she will move to Princeton and follow Professor Linden Strauss from the Department of Mathematics of Universiteit University to enter the doctoral stage.

Shen Qi and Ouye have been dating for several years and finally live together.

The dormitory allocated to Shen Qi by Princeton has quite large bedrooms and study rooms, enough for a young couple to live and work in peace.

In September, the autumn school starts, and everyone is busy again.

Shen Qi's life is simple and regular, attending classes, taking care of graduate students, writing papers, and spending time with his girlfriend.

Ouye's life is equally simple, doing projects, taking medicine, and spending time with her boyfriend.

Neither of them knows how to cook, so they eat three meals in the cafeteria, or buy some simple food and put it in the refrigerator, so they can eat whenever they want.

Juice, cereal, toast, vegetables, burgers, sandwiches, steaks, pork chops, grilled lamb chops, eat these every day, and you will get tired of eating too much.

Zhou Yu'an and Yu Lei would occasionally come to Shen Qi's dormitory for parties, and their presence brought Shen Qi and Ouye a lot of happiness.

Zhou Yu'an is in charge of cooking, and Yu Lei is in charge of storytelling.

"Brother Xiao Qi, Miss Xiao Ou, I'm so embarrassed, so who, Heidi, the number one beauty in the mathematics department, I have a close relationship with her, and I have feelings for her. Yesterday, I bought a bouquet of roses and wanted to be with her. Confession, the result... hey." Yu Lei kept shaking his head and sighing when he said this.

Shen Qi asked: "In the end, Heidi told you, I'm sorry, Yu, do I have a man?"

Yu Lei beat his chest and stamped his feet: "It's normal to have a man, she...she actually kissed a girl passionately! I was secretly observing and found out."

"Lala?" Ouye expressed sympathy for Lei.

"Yes, Miss Ou, you said how embarrassing I should be, what kind of world is this!" Yu Lei was about to cry as he spoke, and he could only smile wryly in the end.

"Yu Lei, the number one handsome guy in the Department of Mathematics of Pudong University, then you can use your charm to straighten the number one beauty, Heidi." Shen Qi suggested.

"Forget it, brother Qi, I have to concentrate on my studies this semester, and I have the lowest education in this room."

Shen Qi asked Yu Lei: "Then I don't understand, since Heidi likes girls, why did she take the initiative to show her affection to you?"

Ouye interjected: "That Heidi, could she be... Bisexual?"

Shen Qi looked at Ouye: "Hey, do you have a lot of research on this?"

"Hehe." Ouye smiled without saying a word.

"You three are all bored? Yu Lei, help me wash a cucumber!" Zhou Yu'an yelled in the kitchen. He is the only one who can cook in this room. He also entered the doctoral stage this fall and is doing research with Professor Figali .

Zhou Yu'an's culinary skills are quite good, he can easily prepare four dishes and one soup, Chinese food.

The four sat around the dining table, Shen Qi tasted Kung Pao Chicken, and was full of praise: "Zhou Yu'an, when did you learn this skill?"

Zhou Yu'an: "Children of the poor are already in charge of their homes. I knew how to cook when I was in middle school. How dare I spend money like you rich second generations."

Shen Qi: "Then you are not being kind. When you were studying at Yanda University, you never cooked for our dormitory brothers."

Zhou Yu'an gave Shen Qi a blank look: "Are we able to cook in our dormitory?"

Shen Qi persisted: "I haven't seen you cook for me since I came to PSU, but I've done it twice recently."

Zhou Yu'an became unhappy: "Shen Qi, am I your nanny? Why should I cook for you? I'm doing it to save face for Ou Ye. After all, she is the only girl in our class."

"Thank you, welcome to come often." Ouye smiled happily, raised the glass of boiled water, and thanked Zhou Yu'an, like a decent hostess.

"Brother Xiao Yu is ingenious and virtuous. Whoever wants to marry Brother Xiao Yu is blessed." Yu Lei quickly walked out of the shadow of broken love, and the delicious food made him forget the pain.

Hometown food is very delicious. Enjoying hometown food in a foreign country will bring you a deep sense of nostalgia.

A Chinese professor and three Chinese international students ate Chinese food, chatted Chinese, and spent the weekend in nostalgia.

In the new week, Shen Qi received good news.

"Annals of Mathematics" published his paper "Proof of Goldbach's Conjecture".

After several months, the three seniors of the Institute for Advanced Study finally passed Shen Qi's guessing paper.

At the same time, the IMU released an official message:

"Shen Qi successfully proved Goldbach's conjecture, Polignac's conjecture, twin prime conjecture, and Guy's conjecture."

"From now on, the above four conjectures will be renamed Goldbach's theorem, Polignac's theorem, twin prime number theorem, and Guy's theorem."

"Related papers can be found in Annals of Mathematics. Thanks to Professor Shen Qi for his historic contribution in this field."

The mathematics world was shaken again.

The people of the world were shocked again.

"One year to solve five conjectures including the Riemann conjecture and the Goldbach conjecture, the 23-year-old Fields Medal winner Shen Qi has entered the peak period of academics." -- "Time Magazine"

"He did what I couldn't, and I just want to see him right away, this magic Chinese key." - Comment from Canadian mathematician Guy.

The twin prime number conjecture was proposed by Hilbert in 1900. The Riemann conjecture, Goldbach conjecture, Polignac conjecture, and Gay conjecture are named after the proposers.

Hilbert, Riemann, Goldbach, and Polignac have long passed away, and Guy is the only one who is still alive.

Guy published the book "Unsolved Problems in Number Theory" in 2003, in which he proposed the Guy conjecture.

Like most conjectures, Gay, a tenured professor at the University of Victoria, was unable to prove his own conjecture.

Shen Qi helped Professor Gay fulfill this wish.

In a wheelchair, Professor Guy, who was extremely excited, rushed to Princeton from Victoria, Canada, to meet Shen Qi.

Shen Qi, along with his family members Ou Ye and student Yu Lei, met with Professor Guy and Mrs. Guy, as well as Guy's son and his students in the Princeton Mathematics Building.

"Howling mud." Professor Gay opened his mouth with a greeting in Chinese. The old man is almost 80 years old and has limited mobility. His wife, son and students take care of him in daily life.

"Hi, hello." Shen Qi said a sentence in standard Chinese, expressing his most sincere greetings to the Canadian friends who came from afar.

Professor Gay held Shen Qi's hand tightly. Although his legs and feet were inconvenient, his brain was very clear. He could only say "泥呵" in Chinese, and expressed the rest of his heart in English, his mother tongue: "Young man, You know, there are only two things that have excited me in this life, one is that I became a tenured professor at the University of Victoria, and the other is that I witnessed my conjecture being proved when I was alive."
