"So Ralph, your research on group theory has already begun. So will you choose group theory as the main focus of your graduate school?" Shen Qi temporarily gave up his plan to train generalists in mathematics and could only train specialists according to the regular scale.

"Yes, that's how I think about it." Ralph showed his attitude towards professional choice.

"The direction of group theory is very promising. Williamson is studying this field. He won the Fields Medal." Shen Qi learned about Ralph's needs and tried his best to meet the needs of students: "Ralph, I will spend the next few semesters with you in lie theory, group theory and even the entire field of algebra."

"Okay." Ralph was considered to be dealt with.

Ralph then left and said he wanted to review his undergraduate thesis.

Shen Qi and Yu Lei communicated separately: "Although Ralph's undergraduate thesis has some flaws, it is undeniable that it is still a high-quality paper. And Yu Lei's undergraduate thesis, half of the content is equivalent to watering, and it has no practical significance."

"Brother Xiao Qi, you know that there is a wide range of moisture in domestic undergraduate thesis and cannot be compared with Princeton undergraduates." Yu Lei did not deny that there is moisture in his undergraduate thesis. His main achievement in undergraduate studies was to get the average score of mathematics majors to a perverted level that was close to full scores.

"Of course, Brother Xiao Qi is an exception." Yu Lei added.

Shen Qi said: "Your undergraduate papers are so good, but they have also been published in core journals."

"You must look at the quality of the papers in China and the name of the tutor and the ranking of the industry. You must understand the rules of the game better than me." Yu Lei was quite honest and said whatever he said in front of Shen Qi.

"This rule is also applicable internationally." Shen Qi certainly understands the rules of the game. If the tutor of the author of the paper is a big shot, the probability of the paper being included will increase.

Yu Lei rubbed his hands excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes, so I am determined to follow Brother Xiaoqi. The tree is big and you can enjoy the cool air, hehe."

"Yu Lei, you are a good-looking guy and speak nicely, but I would like to remind you not to play with me."

"Brother Xiao Qi, don't worry, I am the most down-to-earth person and will never be fooled."

After in-depth exchanges, Shen Qi suggested that Yu Lei choose function theory as the main focus.

This direction requires students to be absolutely pragmatic and not be vague at all, which is a kind of training for students' minds.

Yu Lei readily accepted Shen Qi's suggestion.

After arranging the general direction of two-digit mathematics graduate students, Shen Qi also entered the postgraduate stage.

Shen Qi defined his identity besides his mathematics professor as a "graduate student in physics", which will last for a period of time.

Shen Qi found a graduate course in the Department of Physics on the Princeton internal website.

"Quantum Mechanics", "Relativity", "Statistical Physics", "Advanced Condensed Matter Physics", these are common graduate textbooks in the United States and are available for sale on Amazon.

"Classic Physics", "Elementary Particle Theory", "Graining Waves", this is a textbook compiled by the Princeton Department of Physics, and is available in Princeton.

"Theoretical Physics Research" and "String Theory", these are the two most difficult courses in the Physics Department of the University of General University. The textbook compiler is Edward Witten, which is available in Princeton.

Physical literature and paper collections outside of graduate textbooks can be borrowed from the Flint Library.

Shen Qi quickly scans books and materials, and with the support of level 10 physical indicators and the support of level 13 mathematical indicators, Shen Qi fucks physics.

As famous as the Mathematics Department of Pudong University, the Physics Department of Pudong University is also well-known.

The Department of Physics at the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study is another realm.

If Shen Qi wants to obtain a doctorate degree from the Department of Physics at the Princeton Institute of Advanced Studies, he first needs to complete a master's thesis to prove that he has certain strength in physics.

Even though Shen Qi's physics has been upgraded to level 10, he has been dizzy when he has written a lot of books and documents in a short period of time.

Fortunately, Shen Qi is not an ordinary person. He has made up for physics for a while and has built a physics framework that suits him in his mind.

It is both unconventional and integrated, both dedicated and broad, and intertwined.

The sixteen-character school purpose and teaching concept of the Shen school are also applicable to physics.

Up to now, Shen Qi is the only one who can truly implement the sixteen-character policy.

The one that is more comprehensive and in-depth implemented is mathematics, and the one that is still in the exploration stage is physics.

The network of physics is extremely large, and the branch directions of physics are more complicated than those of mathematics.

Shen Qi must focus when it is time to focus, otherwise he will easily get obsessed with it.

In mathematics, Shen Qi tentatively sets five focus directions and can be adjusted appropriately according to actual conditions.

Physics, Shen Qi tentatively set a focus direction - condensed matter physics.

"The master's thesis submitted to Professor Weiteng is limited to the field of condensed matter physics."

Focusing on the Internet, Shen Qi has recently focused on studying condensed matter physics, which accounts for one-third of his time.

The other third of the time is left for math, and the remaining third of the time is to eat, sleep, and date with your girlfriend.

The English version of "History of Numbers" will be published and released soon after several months of proofreading and review.

The region is North America and will be launched globally, including online and offline sales channels.

"Mr. Weizhe, I have a question. The price of "History of Numbers" in North America is too expensive, right?"

Shen Qi received a box of "History of Numbers" in advance, a hardcover version, a very thick book with a large number of pages.

"History of Numbers" is priced at $85. Shen Qi thinks it is too expensive. It is originally an academic monograph with niche attributes. Does anyone buy it for such a high price?

The number of pages of the best-selling book in the United States, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, is similar to that of "History of Numbers".

"Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" is a book in the "Harry Potter" series. The full set of 1-7 copies of "Harry Potter" is sold for $80 in the United States, which is $5 cheaper than "History of Numbers".

Wizer, manager of the US business department of Springer Publishing Group, explained: "The United States attaches great importance to academic intellectual property rights, and the average selling price of academic monographs in the United States is this level. Please believe in our professionalism. Professor Shen, Springer will never cause losses to a Fields Medal winner."

Professional matters are left to professionals, and Shen Qi didn't care much about the business process of "History of Numbers".

Shen Qi is really not professional in retail pricing, sales operations, publicity and promotion. He only focuses on one thing. Just don’t cheat me of copyright tax.

Springer Publishing Group is a global academic publishing giant, and they want to cooperate with Philippine Award winner Shen Qi for a long time.

Springer expressed enough sincerity in the first cooperation project of Party A and Party B, "History of Numbers".

For each copy of "History of Numbers", Shen Qi will receive a royalty share of US$13, and the author's share of more than 15%.

For every copy of Harry Potter sold in the world, Rowling only gets 15% of the share.

Of course, the sales of popular reading materials like "Harry Potter" are extremely huge. Ms. Rowling has earned more than one billion dollars by selling books alone.

The sales of "The Origin of Geometry" are even more amazing, but the problem is that the author Euclid cannot get a penny of royalty income.

So Shen Qi had nothing to say. He respected the business operations of professionals and waved his hand to agree: "$85 is $85. Can Voldemort be compared with Riemann? My "History of Numbers" is worth this price, go on sale, Mr. Weizer."
