Chapter 188 When she hit me, she didn't hurt herself easily
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.
On April 4, with the end of the last lecture on analytic geometry, the seven-day mathematics feast officially came to an end. In the evening, there was the long-awaited cocktail party.
Xu Qingzhou still didn't go. Since the report meeting, he has been in seclusion and declined all invitations, whether they were seminars, coffee parties, or invitations to cooperation.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Xu Qingzhou typed the last word and clicked the "Submit" button.
Hey~
"Whoo~"
Xu Qingzhou looked at the successful submission email that popped up, let out a long breath, and grinned. After working hard for half a year, he finally got it done.
The journal I submitted my manuscript to this time is still Mathematical Inventions, an old acquaintance, with fast review and no page charges.
Xu Qingzhou closed his computer, put the manuscript into his bag, and prepared to take a shower and go out. Although the thesis was finished, there was still one more important thing - buying a gift for Song Yao.
As for girls, even if they say no, it will definitely not be wrong to bring something back.
"I'm holding a Meteor Crescent Blade and shouting loud slogans. Who's in front of me? Tell me your name. If you have the guts, don't run away."
In the hotel, Xu Qingzhou hummed a cheerful tune and went into the bathroom.
On the other side of the ocean, the editorial department of Mathematical Inventions.
Elton took a sip of coffee and was about to get off work. He had been in a good mood over the past six months and had published many high-quality papers, especially the proof of Cramer's theorem.
Half a year, just half a year, and the position of deputy editor-in-chief will definitely be mine!
Thanks to that young man from Xia Country.
Moreover, I heard two days ago that this young man announced at a lecture in Cambridge that he was about to prove the twin prime conjecture.
Many people around him sneered at this and treated it as a joke, thinking that he was just a young man who boasted. However, he thought it was very promising and planned to write an email to Xu Qingzhou in the evening. If the other party planned to submit an article, he would be happy to accept it.
4:30 .
Elton looked at the time and decided to take a break and get ready to go off work.
After finishing his coffee, he immediately called his old friend, "Hey, James, wanna come out for a drink later?"
"Oh my God, you finally put down your damn job and choose a place." said the other side.
"Well then. huh?"
As Elton was about to turn off the computer, he suddenly saw a reminder on the computer that there was an additional submission, and the submitter was Xu Qingzhou!
The other side asked: "Dude, what's the address?"
"James, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I have to work overtime. I'll drink next time."
"Thanks"
The person on the other end just cursed, but Elton had already hung up the phone. At the same time, he opened the file at an extremely fast speed.
Paper title: Research on the distribution law of prime numbers and proof of the twin prime conjecture
Looking at the submitted paper on the screen, Elton swallowed his saliva. Proof of the twin prime conjecture?! Did the young man from Xiaguo really prove it?
If it was sent by someone else, he might not even have the desire to read it, thinking that the paper would only delay his trip to the blues bar for a beer.
Such as the twin prime conjecture, the Goldbach conjecture, and the Riemann conjecture. The editorial department receives at least a dozen articles a year.
But, this person is Xu Qingzhou, the prover of Cramer's theorem!
Elton took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, opened the paper, and quickly immersed himself in it.
dong dong~
Ten minutes later, someone knocked on the table.
Elton looked up and saw the editor-in-chief Avanisha Hajiyev standing next to him. He said helplessly, "Elton, at this time, you really should ask a friend out for a drink."
"Mr. Hajiyev, I received the paper from Xu Qingzhou from Xia Guo." Elton's face was filled with incomparable excitement and excitement.
Avanisa was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "Oh? About what?"
"Prove the twin prime conjecture." "What?"
"Proved the twin prime conjecture."
"."
Avanisha's face was slightly tense. He was not ready to leave. He turned back to his office to retrieve the paper.
Elton reminded: "Mr. Hajiyev, you have to attend the mayor's reception."
"Elton, if this paper is successful, we will all be witnesses. What a bullshit party, go to hell!"
The Louise Hotel, Cambridge.
Xu Qingzhou took a hot shower and finally felt that most of his fatigue had subsided. From the 2nd to today, he had been carrying out complicated work every day.
To his surprise, in just half an hour, the manuscript had already entered the "Awaiting Reviewer Assignment" stage.
It’s really efficient.
Sighing, Xu Qingzhou put on his coat and walked out of the room for the first time in these few days.
Compared with the bustle of the previous few days, there were very few people in the hotel. Most of them went to attend the cocktail party tonight, and some left early.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, the night had already deepened. The street lamps emitted orange-yellow light, stretching the shadows of the tourists very long.
Xu Qingzhou tightened his collar. A cool breeze blew over him. April was considered early spring here. Even though there was a westerly wind coming from the west, blessed by the North Atlantic warm current, there was still a hint of chill in the air.
He did not go to the Grafton Center in Cambridge, but turned a corner and entered King Street. The special small gifts from Cambridge University were not the first choice. Scenic spots all over the world are the same, and the souvenirs are actually similar, with no special features to be found.
But there are many creative shops on this street that sell handmade products.
Xu Qingzhou turned around and finally stopped in front of a store called "Faulkner's Grocery Store".
I pushed the door open and a crisp bell rang at the door. The store was not big, a bit like the place where you buy magic wands in Harry Potter.
"Good evening, sir." The old man greeted in Chinese.
"Good evening." Xu Qingzhou greeted with a smile, looked at the things in the store, and asked, "Can you understand Chinese?"
The old man nodded and smiled softly, "I can speak five languages, including Chinese."
"I want to buy a bracelet." Xu Qingzhou said directly, feeling that there are many masters among the people. As for why the other party could tell at a glance that he was from Xia, this required experience, such as inferring through body movements, dressing style and other information.
The old man pointed to the left and said, "You can go over there and take a look. They are all woven by my wife herself."
Xu Qingzhou walked over. There were more than a dozen bracelets on the shelf. There were quite a variety of styles. Some were golden and noble, while others were restrained and small. Of course, they might not be as exquisite as the carvings of world-class masters, but they were meaningful.
"I want this one." Xu Qingzhou picked up the bracelet on the far right.
Silver-white, without complicated decorations, the design is simple and exquisite, and the chain body is delicately woven with tiny geometric patterns, which fits Song Yao's cold temperament.
The old man looked at the bracelet in Xu Qingzhou's hand and said with some emotion: "You have a good taste. This is also one of my wife's most proud works."
"Besides being beautiful, there is another very important reason." The more Xu Qingzhou looked at it, the more suitable it seemed.
The old man showed an expression as if he had met a fellow traveler: "I'd love to hear your reasons."
"When she beats me, she doesn't easily hurt her hands."
