Chapter 215 Hello Professor Lin!

After talking to Lin Xiao, Xu Ji looked at his other graduate students and said to them: "You must remember, don't tell anyone."

"I know."

Several graduate students nodded, of course they knew the news just now.

Moreover, this is also amazing news.

A twenty-year-old professor!

This is undoubtedly one of the youngest professors in the world!

Of course, if you remove "one" and count according to Guinness World Records, the youngest professor in the world is an American female professor who became a professor at Konkuk University in South Korea at the age of 18. There is also a 19-year-old Year-old British professor.

However, the universities where these two people are studying are not famous professors, and Beijing University is far from comparable to those two universities.

Therefore, Professor Lin Xiao is obviously more valuable!

Of course, it is meaningless to discuss the youngest professors. The youngest professors do not mean the most outstanding academic achievements. The two youngest professors are obviously not famous in the world.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, is already among the top in the world in terms of academic achievements.

For him, the title of "one of the youngest professors" is just one of the relatively inconspicuous names among many.

Not worth mentioning.

After thinking about this clearly, the surprise of these graduate students was slightly reduced, and then of course they went to show their courtesy.

"Professor Lin, let me get you another glass of water."

"Professor Lin, if you need to run errands from now on, please come to me."

"Professor Lin..."

Please, Lin Xiao will be a professor in their college from now on, why don't you give him a good lick?

If Lin Xiao has a project in the future and is short of people, if he thinks of them, it will be a good opportunity for them to stand out, and it will also be very honorable to tell them, "I did a project with Professor Lin", just think about it. You can boast until the time when your future grandchildren are born.

When Xu Ji saw this scene, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Did you forget that I am here?"

Several graduate students all said with a smile: "Professor Lin is also our senior, they are all the same."

Xu Ji pointed at them and finally shook his head - too lazy to care about them.

…

The time came the next day.

[Graduation Ceremony of Dr. Lin Xiao, winner of the Wolf Prize in Mathematics and Physics]

The bright red banner hung on the door of the auditorium attracted many people's attention.

Everyone who enters the auditorium must sigh for this in their hearts, and then imagine in their hearts: A man should be like this, and he can take his place.

Of course, these can only be imagined.

After entering, let's honestly see how awesome they are.

After entering the auditorium, they were even more shocked.

Good guy, why are there so many people?

Is a graduation ceremony worth so many people attending?

I haven’t seen you come over to any of the activities the school usually holds?

The most important thing is that it’s time for winter vacation now. Why are there so many people staying in school?

Seeing that there were people sitting even in the aisle, those who came late couldn't help but regret it.

If I had known earlier, I would have come earlier.

And when I looked again, I saw that the first few rows were filled with all kinds of big shots, including a lot of academicians, a lot of school leaders, and some unknown old people, but they all seemed to be big shot figures.

In addition, there was a group of photographers standing behind, with several large cameras set up there. They didn't know it but thought it was an important meeting.

However, this is just one person's graduation ceremony.

At this time, another group of people came in. After seeing the people in front, they quickly quickened their pace and went to find seats.

If you don’t find a seat, it will be really late.

The time soon came to 15:00 in the afternoon.

This is the time when the graduation ceremony officially begins.

The host came up and started to speak. Of course it was just a formality, and then he invited Principal Li to give a speech.

“Today is the doctoral graduation ceremony for one of the most outstanding students in our Beijing University’s history of more than 100 years.”

When the principal said this, the whole place was in an uproar.

The best, bar none, is this too absolute?

Of course, considering Lin Xiao's achievements and the students who have graduated from Beijing University, Lin Xiao is indeed worthy of this evaluation.

However, everyone can just talk about this matter in private. Isn’t it a bit bad to say it directly in such a public place now?

But Principal Li also guessed everyone's reaction and just said: "I think this evaluation is very appropriate."

"Although our Chinese tradition values ​​modesty and reservation, sometimes we have to break tradition, break habits, and do things that people don't do."

"So this student deserves our evaluation."

"To commemorate this day, we held a graduation ceremony specifically for him and invited everyone to watch it. We also hope that the students present can learn from him, although not from his achievements. But we also need to learn from his hardworking spirit in studying.”

"As for who he is? Although everyone knows it, before we say his name, please let us review his deeds."

"At the age of seventeen, he ranked first in the country with full marks in the Chinese Mathematical Olympiad and entered the national training team. Then he successively scored full marks and entered the national team without any controversy. During the training process, he Already eighteen years old, and this year, he solved a world-class mathematical problem, which was to prove that there are infinitely many prime numbers in the Fibonacci sequence."

"Then, he won the first place in the Qin Province College Entrance Examination with a score of 746 in the 2018 College Entrance Examination, and won the gold medal in the subsequent International Mathematical Olympiad, and received a special prize that had not been awarded in 13 years. .”

"Of course, these are not all the achievements of this student. Later, he truly told the world what a genius should be like: solving the distribution law of Mersenne prime numbers and bringing an important problem that has lasted for thousands of years to the mathematical world to end in his hands. ; The proof of Goldbach's conjecture once again brought a pearl to the world of mathematics; he suddenly moved to the world of materials chemistry and found the bonding rules of titanium, which set off the exploration of the bonding rules of elements in the world of materials chemistry; and then returned to mathematics. The world solved the twin prime conjecture, which once again shocked the mathematical world, and he picked off two pearls."

Hearing this, everyone present felt their blood boiling, and they were deeply shocked in their hearts.

In the past, they had often heard that Lin Xiao was awesome, but they had never detailed the aspects in which he was awesome. Now, through the words of Principal Li, they recalled Lin Xiao's strong record!

Even if you achieve any one of them, it is enough for a person to reach the sky in one step. But now that these achievements have all appeared in one person, it is really incredible.

Moreover, this is mathematics and materials. This can be called an all-around genius.

But apparently, there's more to it than that.

And physics.

Next, it’s time to get to physics.

Everyone fell silent, waiting for Principal Li's next words.

Principal Li did not stop and continued: "Later, he devoted himself to studying and began to conduct in-depth research in physics. With his strong mathematical ability, he completed a project that could be placed on the same level as the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. The physical theory discussed at the level of multi-dimensional field theory - multi-dimensional field theory, he proved that there is a multi-dimensional space in our world, and combined the multi-dimensional field theory with the standard model in physics, allowing us to even understand the basic organization of higher dimensions and realize This is an incredible feat of peering into higher dimensions from lower dimensions.”

"Later, he applied multi-dimensional field theory to the study of cosmology, proving the origin of dark energy in the universe, and inferring the possibility of life consciousness in aliens and other dimensions."

"So, he solemnly announced to the world that aliens were in his formula, once again providing a solution to the Fermi Paradox, and it was completely verified based on mathematical formulas."

When Principal Li said this, everyone in the room became excited and couldn't wait to see this student appear.

Then, President Li said: "And he is the pride of our Beijing University - Lin Xiao."

"Today is his graduation ceremony. I will not waste the remaining time and invite him to come on stage to complete the final part of his own graduation ceremony. I also hope that all students can learn something from Lin Xiao. ."

The thunderous applause was not applause for the end of Principal Li's speech, but applause for the person who was about to take the stage, applause to welcome him.

A moment later, Lin Xiao, who once again put on his doctor's uniform, stepped onto the podium and came in front of everyone.

People looked at the young man going up and became quiet, wondering what he would say.

At the same time, Lin Xiao looked around at all the faces present and felt slightly in his heart.

It seemed like the last doctoral graduation ceremony was the last one, probably less than a month ago. However, compared to the last time it was mostly filled with foreign faces, this time it was all Chinese faces, which made him feel quite friendly. .

Then, he said: "Hello, classmates and teachers, I am Lin Xiao."

"I just heard what Principal Li said, and my blood boiled with excitement. It turns out that I have done so many awesome things in the past."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience burst into laughter. Don't you even know you are so awesome?

Lin Xiao also smiled, but his subsequent words left everyone in the audience speechless.

"Of course, I am also grateful to Principal Li for helping me recall so many things, because it made me know that I have only solved a few problems so far."

That's it?

When he said these words, all the teachers and students in the room rolled their eyes involuntarily.

Good guy, you have solved so many world-level problems and put forward so many world-level theories, and then tell others that you only solved a few problems and that’s all?

Well, you are Lin Shen, you speak on stage, you have the final say.

Lin Xiao ignored the audience's reaction and continued: "Although I have solved many problems, they are not all. Compared with all the problems in academia, the problems I have solved are still only a few."

"What's more, we still don't know how many problems we haven't discovered, and the absence of problems is far more terrible than the problems."

"Of course, for the academic community, there is no need to think about the problems that have not been discovered for the time being. We need to find ways to solve the problems that have been discovered first."

"After all, you can't eat from the bowl and look into the pot."

"However, for more friends, it is also difficult to solve the problems that have been discovered by the academic community. Therefore, these friends, you must first solve the problems that exist in your own body."

"Solve your own problems, then solve the problems in academia, and then find and solve problems that have not been found in academia. This is the three-step strategy we should follow in the process of learning and research."

"And what is your own problem? For example, do you have procrastination? Don't let deadlines become your primary productivity, because that will waste more time for you to study. You must also understand that you still have a lot of knowledge. Are there any gaps?"

"At the same time, we..."

Lin Xiao continued to talk, and listening to his words, all the students, teachers and professors present listened attentively.

In any case, Lin Xiao's experience is worth listening to. After all, Lin Xiao is not a master of success, because Lin Xiao is really successful.

What Lin Xiao shared were all his insights. Putting aside the system, he studied hard every day, and this was all real.

It's just a system that allows him to always succeed.

For more ordinary people, it is enough to succeed in one thing in their lifetime.

In this way, time passed quickly and Lin Xiao's speech ended quickly.

Everyone in the audience gained something, but obviously many of them would soon forget about it.

However, as long as even one percent of people can remember it, Lin Xiao's speech will be valuable.

After his speech ended, he did not go down. At this time, Principal Li came up again.

At this time, Principal Li was holding a red thing in his hand, like a certificate.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiao also knew what was going to happen next.

Under the witness of all the students, Principal Li opened the red book, and inside was a letter of appointment.

Then President Li said: "Lin Xiao, now I officially represent Beijing University and invite you to be our professor at Beijing University. Are you willing to accept it?"

Lin Xiao suddenly showed a "surprise" expression, took the appointment letter, and said solemnly: "Thank you, this is my honor, of course I am willing to accept it!"

Seeing this scene, everyone present was shocked. He became a professor just after graduation?

Considering Lin Xiao's age, this is even more surprising.

Of course, no one said anything wrong, and instead felt happy.

From now on, Lin Xiao will be a professor in their school, which of course makes him happy.

Principal Li also laughed, turned to look at the people present, and said with a smile: "Dear students, why don't you call me Professor Lin now?"

The students present all laughed, and then they all shouted: "Hello, Professor Lin!"

Then, there was a wave of applause to celebrate this moment.

Lin Xiao also smiled slightly.

We have officially entered a new stage.

…

On January 28, 2021, Lin Xiao officially became a professor at Beijing University.
