Scholar's Advanced Technological System

Chapter 189: Different Than Imagination?

Seeing that Huang Guangming would buy him food, Lu Zhou was happy to help.

Once he finished his class in the afternoon, he went straight to Professor Liu’s office. He greeted the old gentlemen and mentioned his favor.

“Oh, this thing,” said Professor Liu at Lu Zhou’s request. He smiled, “Easy, I’ll let him join. Write down your friend’s name. I’ll go to the Academic Affairs Office later and add his name for the enrollment.”

For him, this favor was very easy to do.

Lu Zhou did not realize that Professor Liu no longer treated him as a student, but rather a young and promising scholar. In other words, a worthy colleague.

It was because in two years or so, once Lu Zhou returned from Princeton, he would become the youngest professor at the University of Jin Ling.

Not to mention, Lu Zhou was also a CERN researcher and Professor Lu’s student, and he was about to be a nominee for Fields Medal... This kid was famous among the domestic academic community.

However, this kid did not even realize it.

Maybe that was one of his strengths. Humbleness.

Not many people could accomplish so many achievements at his age. Liu Xiangping had only seen a handful of students, but most of them fell off the board once they got older.

This was because the young talented geniuses would often get distracted by fame and stopped grinding.

Not to mention all the bragging and ego boosting...

This was why Professor Liu was so curious about Lu Zhou.

If anyone else had any of Lu Zhou’s achievements, he could spend the rest of his life bragging about it.

However, Lu Zhou was different.

He would get excited and energetic. After the excitement ended, he would calm down and might even forget about it. He did not have that kind of arrogance.

After he got the Higher Education Society Cup, Professor Liu had a strange feeling that Lu Zhou was different than his other students.

Maybe... This is the potential of a great man?

Liu Xiangping was shocked at his own thoughts and it was unclear how this idea came to mind.

He had taught countless students over the years, but only one person was able to make him think this way.

Lu Zhou smiled and said, “Thank you, professor.”

“You’re welcome,” said Liu Xiangping as he shook his hand. He then asked, “Oh yeah, are you going to Beijing in October?”

Lu Zhou did not know why Professor Liu would ask him this, but he still nodded and said, “Yeah... Professor Lu is taking me there.”

Professor Liu asked curiously, “Oh, what did Professor Lu say it was for?”

Lu Zhou, “He didn’t tell me... He said it was to take me to visit Professor Qiu Chengtong. Why?”

“Nothing. That’s a good thing,” said Liu Xiangping. He saw that Lu Zhou was oblivious and so, he smiled and patted him on the shoulder, “Then I’ll have to congratulate you in advance.”

Lu Zhou, “...?”

Congratulate?

What’s there to congratulate?

Lu Zhou felt inexplicably confused. He did not know what the old man was saying.

However, Professor Liu would not tell him why. He only said, “It would be boring if I revealed it to you. Go ask Old Lu if you’re curious.”

When Lu Zhou saw Professor Liu’s smirk, he was speechless. He did not like it when someone left him hanging.

He was at a loss.

...

The study of the Polignac’s conjecture reached a bottleneck. Lu Zhou read a ton of documents and still, he could not find an effective method.

Recently on Arxiv, there were many interesting theses. Someone cited his [Annual Mathematics] thesis and discussed his method of proving the twin prime conjecture. This person tried to attack the Polignac’s conjecture and it exploded on the Internet.

Lu Zhou felt like some of the viewpoints were interesting, but they were missing something.

He planned on taking a break from this conjecture for a few days. Suddenly, an email from CERN appeared in his mailbox.

[Lu,

CERN’s recent research results are exciting. The characteristic peaks of 750 GeV are becoming clearer. The confidence levels on ATLAS and CMS detectors are 1.9 sigma and 2.1 sigma respectively. I believe that with the accumulation of collisions, we will definitely find the hidden secret, the secret behind the characteristic peak of this energy zone... So we might have to start doing more work.

I am watching the Hadron Collider experiment closely. I will update you on any new discoveries.

Also, based on the latest data collected by the LHC, I speculate that the particles there may form the last piece of the puzzle in the standard model. This piece of the puzzle has exceeded the expectations of the old supersymmetric particle.

If this is true, then there is no doubt that our work here will be influential.

With regards to the supersymmetry theory, the current work progress of my students and I have reached a critical stage. In the study of the 750 GeV energy region signal, some interesting data appeared on several detectors.

Regardless of your ability to process this data, I hope that you can give me a reply as soon as possible. After all, there are many people who are staring at the signal of this energy zone. We must race against time.

Also, I am not doubting your academic morality, but I have to remind you to please keep the contents of this email confidential. Please tell me if anyone gives you a hard time.

]

Since this was a professional work email, the old man wrote the words concisely.

Obviously, Lu Zhou would not reject the old man.

He typed a few words on his keyboard and replied, [... I will try to quickly process this data. It should only take three days. As for your concern, I guarantee that I will keep this confidential.]

Lu Zhou obviously would not let a third party see this data.

It was not only a matter of academic reputation but also a matter of character.

Lu Zhou hit the “Reply” key before he pulled out a laptop from his drawer. He wiped the dust off and plugged it in.

The compressed file in the email was small and most of it was image and chart files.

Once Lu Zhou finished the decompression, he opened the text file. He then looked at the contents inside.

Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows.

Why does it feel like...

This looks different than I imagined?
