Chapter 115 Fields Medal (10th update)

CCTV4 International News Channel is broadcasting the award ceremony live.

The audience in front of the TV held their breath, and several special guests were analyzing that two mathematicians in China were invited to give 1-hour reports, and all the Fields Medals were born from mathematicians who reported 1-hours.

This means that China is expected to win the Fields Medal this year, achieving a zero breakthrough in the history of Chinese mathematics.

The Fields Medal is equivalent to the Nobel Prize!

And so far, no one in China has won the Nobel Prize!

At this time, China was not the one ten years later. Even if it became the world's second largest economy and its military strength ranked among the top three in the world for many years, China has always been unconfident. They were eager to receive international honors and international recognition.

It is precisely this kind of psychology that Chinese people care about gold medals in the Olympics. If they don’t miss a gold medal athlete, they will be scolded to death. If there is a field that makes a breakthrough and wins a gold medal, athletes will be praised to the altar.

At the 2004 Athens Olympics, Liu Feiren won the gold medal in 110 meters and was directly praised on the altar. He was in the limelight and competed with Yao on the celebrity list for four consecutive years. However, in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Liu Feiren was unable to compete due to injury, and was despised by countless people. He became a sinner of the country and nation.

But you should know that Liu Feiren won honors for China internationally, which is not a fake. Athletes, no one is injured. There are many athletes who cannot participate in the competition due to injuries.

At this time, perhaps feeling the heat of the eyes off the stage, the President of the International Mathematics Alliance smiled friendlyly in the face of the audience.

After clearing his throat, he read out the award speech of the first winner in a solemn and steady voice: "He proved the basic lemma of the self-conservative form theory in the Longlands Program..."

A yellow-skinned man stood up in surprise. Qin Yuanqing looked over and knew that this was the Vietnamese Frenchman Wu Baozhu, a world-renowned mathematician. He solved the general situation of basic lemma in 2008. The proof of basic lemma was selected by Time Magazine as one of the top ten scientific advances in 2009.

On the stage, after reading the award speech of the first winner, the award speech of the second winner was immediately started: "He proved the conformal invariant of the plane Isin model and seepage in statistical physics..."

Not far from Qin Yuanqing, a Russian stood up in surprise and began to celebrate. Qin Yuanqing recognized that this was the Russian mathematician "Stannislav Smirnov". He won the IMO gold medal full mark for two consecutive years. He worked at the University of Geneva, Switzerland. He won the Saran Prize, the Klay Mathematics Research Award, the Davidson Prize, and the European Mathematics Society Award!

Unexpectedly, Stanislav Smirnov won the Fields Medal at the age of 40. If he missed this year, he would miss the Fields Medal for life.

When Stanislav Smirnov came on stage to take over the Fields Medal, took a photo with the President of the International Mathematics Union, and gave a brief speech, he stepped down, and the President of the International Mathematics Union began to present the award speech of the third winner: "He proved the nonlinear damping of the Boltzmann equation and converged to the equilibrium state..."

The third Fields Medal winner is the French mathematician Cedric Villani, who has served as director of the Poincaré Institute since last year and enjoys a high reputation in the world.

Qin Yuanqing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He has already awarded four awards. According to past practice, there will be no more than four awards in the Fields Medal, which means that at most one winner is left.

The President of the International Mathematics Alliance watched Cedric Villani walk off the platform with a smile, and then continued the fourth winner's speech: "He is so young, surprisingly young, but he has extremely high attainments in the understanding and application of mathematical methods, and at the same time he has extraordinary ambitions and endless curiosity!"

"In just one year, he turned the Zhou conjecture into the Zhou-Qin theorem, turned the twin prime conjecture into the twin prime theorem, and turned the hail conjecture into the hail theorem. His appearance was the biggest discovery in the international mathematics community in the past year. His addition, fresh blood was injected into the ancient and great discipline of number theory, which rejuvenated it with new vitality."

"His appearance also hurt the jury, but in the end the jury unanimously agreed that his achievements are worthy of the Fields Medal!"

The chairman of the International Mathematics Alliance paused and announced in a serious tone: "The fourth winner is Qin Yuanqing from China!"

The moment the winners announced, the atmosphere in the venue was ignited instantly.

20-year-old Fields Medal winner!

You should know that the youngest winner of the Fields Medal was Jean-Pierre Sell from France in 1954. He was only 27 years old when he won the award!

Now, Qin Yuanqing directly advanced this record by 7 years, which made the latecomers despair!

The thunderous applause was like an explosion of mountain torrents, deafening!

Seeing this, the chairman of the International Mathematics Alliance felt relieved. The judges had a debate about Qin Yuanqing's choice this time. One very important reason was that Qin Yuanqing was too young and too young. At the same time, Qin Yuanqing was still a Chinese, so this would inevitably bring political colors.

But in the end, the president of the International Mathematics Alliance repeatedly emphasized that the Fields Medal only depends on the results and that as long as it is under 40 years old, it is eligible to obtain it.

As for the additional reason, the President of the International Mathematics Alliance wants to get greater support from China so that the International Mathematics Alliance can develop better and better.

In the past, Chinese mathematicians did not achieve enough outstanding results, so there is nothing to say. But now that they have made it, it can be said that it is the most important mathematical achievement in the world in the past four years, and there is no reason not to be awarded to Qin Yuanqing.

The atmosphere was ignited not only by the conference.

Just as the chairman of the International Mathematicians Alliance pronounced the name "Qin Yuanqing", the CCTV live broadcast room was in full bloom.

"Qin Yuanqing, Qin Yuanqing won, he won the Fields Medal!"

"I, China, finally gave birth to a Fields Medal winner!"

The guests and the host jumped up excitedly.

The audience in front of the TV were also excited. After all, Qin Yuanqing is a household name in China, and his popularity is even better than Chairman Yao and Chairman Yao. Everyone knows it. Now that Qin Yuanqing has won the Fields Medal, the simple people are excited and think that some people even take out firecrackers and set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Jing Tian, ​​who was following the live broadcast of the TV, jumped up happily when he heard Qin Yuanqing won the Fields Medal, and hugged his assistant. No one was even more proud than her at this moment. Then Jing Tian was excited to take out his phone and posted a Weibo: "@Qin Yuanqing, congratulations to the male god for winning the Fields Medal, I am proud of you!!!"

As soon as Weibo was posted, the number of comments and retweets rose rapidly, and even the number of fans was soaring.

Jingtian quickly asked his assistant to book the best hotel and invited the entire crew to have a meal together to celebrate.

"Congratulations to God Qin, please congratulate me!"

"Congratulations to Academician Qin for winning the Fields Medal in one fell swoop and winning glory for the country."

"Xi Dapu Ben, the Fields Medal has been won, is the Nobel Prize still far?"

"Awesome~~~No wonder Qin Shen reached the top of the academicians of the two academies in one fell swoop and reached the peak of science!"

......

The whole of China was in full swing, and whether those who were studying or not, they were discussing heatedly.

For a long time, although the overall number of papers has continued to grow, the Chinese mathematics community has been on the edge of the world.

A Fields Award may not represent anything, nor does it mean anything.

But the brilliance on that medal has allowed countless people to see confidence, the future, and hope from the new generation of scholars...

Qin Yuanqing won the Fields Medal at the age of 20 and was still the youngest winner, which is undoubtedly a very exciting thing.

The pride and cohesion of the nation burst out at this moment.

If it were other mathematicians who suddenly won the Fields Medal because of their low popularity, then everyone might not be so popular.

But Qin Yuanqing is different. After winning the CMO gold medal and IMO gold medal, he then got the first top scorer in science in China who had full marks in all subjects. During the key college entrance examination, Qin Yuanqing was still restless. No one subject took more than an hour. The news of submitting the paper early in advance was widely reported at that time, which made Qin Yuanqing enter almost every company. After entering university, the first semester proved the Zhou conjecture and the twin prime number conjecture, and won the first prize of the National Natural Science Award. He was repeatedly on the news broadcast. Various news reports were never stopped, which made Qin Yuanqing very knowledgeable. It is not an exaggeration to say that every Chinese knows it.

The Qin Yuanqing Fields Medal is simply a news harvester.

...

In the venue, the applause gradually subsided.

At this moment, Qin Yuanqing didn't know what happened in China when the head of the International Mathematician Alliance said his name.

It was not clear how excited those who were watching him were at this moment.

Surrounded by the audience's eyes and cameras, he walked to the stage in formal attire and calmly took over the Fields Prize medal from the chairman of the International Federation of Mathematicians.

The old professor shook hands with Qin Yuanqing and sent congratulations on behalf of the International Alliance of Mathematicians.

"Congratulations, scholars from China."

Qin Yuanqing smiled and nodded: "Thank you."

Then Qin Yuanqing made a speech, and learned that he had the opportunity to win the Fields Medal. Once he won the Fields Medal, he would be the first Fields Medal winner in China. Qin Yuanqing naturally had to prepare a thanksgiving article.

He first thanked the Party and the country, then thanked his parents and teachers in the school, and thanked everyone who helped him along the way. Then Qin Yuanqing reviewed his hobby for mathematics, the fun and experience of studying mathematics. Finally, Qin Yuanqing thanked the jury for awarding the award to him.

"I believe that the Chinese mathematics community will develop better and better. The second Fields Medal belonging to China will not be too far away!" Qin Yuanqing said firmly.
Chapter completed!
