Great Country Academician

Chapter 104 Heading to Princeton

In the teaching building, in Tang Gaoyuan's office, a group of people chatted.

What Xu Chuan didn't expect was that even the city leaders of Xingcheng came to the school today.

Although it was not as solemn as that of Jinling, it also expressed his concern for him and his future destination.

After all, this is a talent who has come from southern Shonan, and Star City, as the capital of southern Shonan, naturally has to win.

After Xu Chuan dealt with it for a while, everyone dispersed, and two or three familiar teachers from the solitary school were chatting in the office.

"It's quite late today, do you still have to rush back? Why don't you sleep at the school for one night and leave tomorrow?"

After taking a sip of tea, Old Tang said, it is almost five o'clock in the evening, and the car from Xingcheng back to Yue County should be gone.

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Don't bother Teacher, I've already booked the hotel."

"That's up to you. Although there is a guest house in the school, it is definitely not as comfortable as a hotel to sleep. Anyway, you are not short of money now, so you can just buy a house in Star City."

Xu Chuan scratched his head: "Let's talk about buying a house, it's a bit too early for me, and I'm still a little short of an adult."

Old Tang smiled, and continued, "That's right, are you planning to further your studies in mathematics?"

Xu Chuan nodded and said, "I'm sure I can go, but I don't know how far I can go."

"What about physics, are you ready to give up?" Old Tang asked.

Shaking his head, Xu Chuan said: "No, I never gave up on physics in the past, and I will never give up. The purpose of my study of mathematics is to help me go further in physics. After all, mathematics and physics are not separated. In the future, I will go deeper into physics. Research is definitely inseparable from the support of mathematics."

"That's true, but this time you proved the mathematical conjecture. You should be ready to graduate and study abroad. Where are you going?" Old Tang raised his head slightly and looked at Xu Chuan.

"Princeton, after all, is the holy land of mathematics and physics, and I have to go there after the new year, just to experience it first."

"Huh? You exchanged so early? You haven't graduated yet, right?" Old Tang asked suspiciously.

Xu Chuan smiled shyly, and said, "It's not an exchange, it's because there was a mathematics exchange meeting in February, and I was invited to give an academic report on the proof of the weak Weyl_Berry conjecture."

Old Tang choked for a while before saying, "Amazing!"

After returning from Star City, Xu Chuan didn't go out again. He occasionally chatted with his parents, and basically spent the rest of the time reading.

He came back from school with half a box of math books, enough to get him through the year.

In a few days, Xu Xiao also went on winter vacation. With this little girl at home, it was quite lively.

"Brother, I'm back!"

Before entering, Xu Xiao's voice came from outside the building.

Hearing the sound, Xu Chuan smiled and put down the math book in his hand, and went downstairs to meet him. If he didn't go down, this little girl would quarrel with him for days.

Rubbing Xiaoxiao's head, Xu Chuan asked with a smile, "How does it feel to study in the provincial capital?"

"It's pretty good. The only downside is that there are legends about you everywhere. The teacher used you to educate us in class, as if we were not as good as you."

Xu Xiao wrinkled her little nose, and said with disdain, but her tone was full of joy.

"Then you have to work hard."

Xu Chuan said with a smile, his achievements in Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School, it is estimated that it will be difficult for latecomers to break through.

On the surface, there are two major competition gold medals + full marks in the college entrance examination, but in fact there are two papers that ordinary students don’t know. Generally, there is not such a large knowledge reserve to write a thesis.

"You underestimate me, bro, watch me break your record! I want to get full marks in both physical and mathematical competitions! Hmph╭(╯^╰)╮!"

Xiaoxiao snorted and entered the room with a ponytail.

Behind him, Xu Chuan smiled and shook his head.

As the days passed, the taste of the new year gradually became stronger. After the new year, Xu Chuan's birthday also arrived.

It was her eighteenth birthday, which coincided with coming of age. To celebrate, Xu Xiao took out the 'private money' extorted from Xu Chuan and went to the town to buy a cake.

"Brother, make a wish! Make a wish!"

In the small living room, Xu Xiao shouted excitedly. The flickering candlelight reflected on everyone's faces, and happy and bright smiles piled up, warm and short-lived.

Xu Chuan smiled and closed his eyes, silently making a wish in his heart.

"Brother, what wish did you make?"

On the side, Xu Xiao leaned over and asked in a ghostly manner.

"It won't work if you express your wish." Xu Chuan said with a smile.

"(ˉ▽ ̄~)Cut~~, boring, share the cake and share the cake."

Xu Xiao made a cut, turned around and picked up the plastic knife and fork in disdain, and said while cutting, "I have a piece for my brother, I have a piece for my mother, and I have a piece for my father. OK, there is the last piece left."

Xu Chuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patted the little girl's head.

"Where did you learn how to share cakes?"

Xu Xiaoli said confidently: "There are children in the family!"

Leisure time is always short. This year's New Year is not much different from usual. New Year's Eve dinner, visiting relatives, paying New Year's greetings to the elderly in the village, and giving out sugar and red envelopes to children.

The overall process has not changed much, but it is much more lively than last year.

A home with a perfect score in the college entrance examination is worthy of the folks in the village to bring their children to come and take them down to educate their children.

Even those in other villages who are closer to the Xu family will bring their children to visit.

This made Xu's father Xu's mother's face full of proud smiles.

After leaving relatives, Xu Chuan also started to pack his luggage.

Today on the 6th, I happened to take a car to go to Star City.

Although his scheduled ticket is on the eighth, there is a folk custom in his hometown of "seven out, eight out".

It means that you generally don't go out on the seventh day of each month, and don't go home on the eighth day.

Xu Chuan didn't taboo these things, but it didn't matter if his parents requested it. It just so happened that he could visit his high school teacher in Star City on the seventh day of the seventh day.

"Chuan'er, you must pay attention to safety when you go abroad. Remember to call back when you arrive. I heard that abroad is very chaotic. Everyone has a gun there. Don't quarrel with other people. Don't go if you have nothing to do. provoking people"

"Well, I know."

In the room, Xu's mother was arranging Xu Chuan's clothes, while nagging and explaining. On the other side, Xu's father also watched with some concern, but did not speak.

It was Xu Xiao, who jumped up and down on the bed excitedly, and said, "Brother, I heard that there are many cheap and easy-to-use cosmetics and lipsticks in the country of America, remember to bring some back for me."

But it didn't take long for her to be suppressed by Xu's mother, and she was driven back to her room to do her homework.

"Remember to call back two more times."

Before leaving, Mother Xu confessed again.

Xu Chuan nodded vigorously, and got on the bus to Star City.

After visiting a high school teacher and paying homage to his old age, under Tang Gaoyuan's persistence, he personally drove Xu Chuan to the airport.

"When you arrive in the United States, you should pay attention to safety. Don't run out at night, don't go to parties indiscriminately, especially those with black people, and stay away from black people when you meet them on the road."

In the small car, Old Tang Zai gave careful instructions all the way. Although he was a little 'missing' about this most proud student, he went to study mathematics, but he still cared a lot.

On the co-pilot, Xu Chuan did not refute or anything, and listened quietly.

This is the concern from the elders, although sometimes this kind of concern can make people feel a lot of pressure.

Especially him, for him, life is really impermanent sometimes, and no one knows what will happen in the future.

When approaching the airport, Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, teacher, I'll buy a body armor and put it on when I get off the plane."

Hearing this, Old Tang gave Xu Chuan a sidelong glance, and was speechless by his unprepared opening.

But with such an interruption, the heavy atmosphere of parting has been reduced a lot.

After bidding farewell to Teacher Tang, Xu Chuan boarded the plane alone, sat quietly in a familiar seat by the window, and stared at the scenery outside.

It is very troublesome to go to Princeton from China. He needs to transfer from Star City to Modu, then depart from Modu to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and then go to Princeton from Philadelphia.

The flight voyage totaled more than sixteen hours, and the time spent on the road was more than twenty-four hours.

In this case, it is not a wise choice to sleep as soon as you get on the plane.

However, Xu Chuan has experience in dealing with such things, so he was not panicked or excited. In addition, he was invited by Princeton University to give an academic report, so he was in the first class, which was not crowded, and the journey was quite comfortable. relaxing.

But speaking of this, Xu Chuan remembered another thing.

His good friend in his previous life, a professor of mathematics at Princeton, because he studied algebraic geometry, and in algebraic geometry, there is a geometric structure research method, which can be called geometric blasting, which is to extend a certain plane or space in all directions. This method is a bit like zooming in on a picture and zooming in and zooming in again.

Then that day when he was calculating the geometric equations on the plane, he was too focused, and he was a bit rough, and then the lady next to him saw the 'blowing up' written on the manuscript paper and suspected him as a terrorist, thinking that he was calculating and researching some kind of explosives, Then reported it to the air police.

Immediately after the plane returned, he was taken away for investigation, and it took two hours before he returned to the plane and took off

Later, when he chatted with Xu Chuan about this matter, he sighed a little, saying that if you are not short of money abroad, try to choose the first-class cabin by plane, and go to a higher-end place for meals and accommodation.

Because the weight of money will naturally filter out the low sex around you to avoid unnecessary trouble.

There is no doubt that the polarization of the United States today has become so serious that it can be said that it is two completely different countries.

People at the bottom rely on calculators to calculate double-digit addition, subtraction and multiplication, and the top mathematics circles occupy more than half of the world's mathematical elites.
