Unbelievable, how you discovered they did miscalculate?” Looks at Lu Zhou, in the Senior Brother strict voice, was full of excited and surprise. “难以置信,你是怎么发现他们算错了的?”看着陆舟,严师兄的声音中,充满了兴奋和诧异。 …… …… This feeling seems like, originally thinks that must lose, has not actually thought that instead surpasses in the final moment score. 这种感觉就好像,本来以为都要输了,却没想到在最后关头比分反超。 Sensitivity to digit? I do not know how should describe this feeling. In brief, thought that not the right place I try to consider as finished, is calculating is calculating discovered the mistake,” Lu Zhou smiles with ease , to continue, I guess they possibly caught up, if before the plotting, inspects one, won't definitely make this mistake...... our public lecture is the day after tomorrow?” “对数字的敏感?我也不知道该如何形容这种感觉。总之,觉得不对劲的地方我就试着算了一遍,算着算着就发现了错误,”陆舟轻松地笑了笑,继续说,“我猜他们可能是太赶了,如果填图之前检查一遍的话,肯定不会出这种错误……我们的报告会是后天?” Senior Brother strict: Yes, last, I will suggest the day after tomorrow you relax is quite good tonight.” 严师兄:“是的,后天下午最后一场,我建议你今晚放松一下比较好。” Lu Zhou shakes the head, said, relaxes or waits the day after tomorrow, the person of Syracuse University is still waiting to look at our jokes. Tonight final several steps handles, tomorrow I must under the spend some time inspection.” 陆舟摇了摇头,笑着说,“放松还是等后天晚上吧,雪城大学的人还在等着看咱们的笑话。今晚把最后几步搞定,明天我还得花点时间检查下。” Wants not to need to think, the research team of Professor Brew Nourse, this little while definitely hates the tooth that oneself hate to be itchy. Almost can foresee, at the day after tomorrow approval public lecture, that group of Americans easily will definitely not let off themselves. 想都不用想,布鲁诺斯教授的研究团队,这会儿肯定恨自己恨的牙痒痒。几乎是可以预见的,后天的验收报告会上,那群美国佬肯定不会轻易放过自己。 A month the work must be clear immediately, Lu Zhou does not want to turn over from the last meter of goal line in this. 一个月来的工作马上就要见分晓,陆舟可不想在这距离终点线的最后一米上翻车。 Packed the thing, Lu Zhou was being about to leave the conference site, suddenly heard some people to call own name. 收拾了东西,陆舟正准备离开会场,忽然听到有人在叫自己的名字。 Lu Zhou!” 陆舟!” Turns around, sees to stop by calling out own that person, Lu Zhou gawked slightly, surprised say/way. 转过身去,看到叫住自己的那人,陆舟微微愣了下,惊讶道。 Senior Brother Luo?” “罗师兄?” Came a warm hug with the old friend, pats the shoulder of Lu Zhou, Senior Brother Luo is saying with a smile: Quite skillful, you unexpectedly also here, this world also was too never expected that small.” 和老朋友来了个热情的拥抱,拍着陆舟的肩膀,罗师兄笑道:“好巧,没想到你居然也在这里,这世界也太小了。” „Very skillful...... this is?” “是挺巧的……这位是?” Lu Zhou looked to Senior Brother Luo that old person, always thought that the appearance was somewhat ripe, but also said no that on where in has seen. 陆舟看向了罗师兄旁边的那位老人,总觉得面相有些熟,但又说不上在哪见过。 Senior Brother Luo smiles, said: I under the introduction, this is my teacher 罗师兄笑了笑,介绍说:“我来介绍下吧,这位是我的导师” Edward Witten,” has not waited for Luo Wenxuan to introduce, the old person smiles, extends the right hand on own initiative. “爱德华威滕,”没有等罗文轩介绍,老人笑了笑,主动伸出右手。 Edward Witten! 爱德华威滕! Heard this name, Lu Zhou is startled immediately. 听到这名字,陆舟顿时惊了。 He only listened to Senior Brother Luo to say oneself teacher does the mathematical physics, has not actually thought that his boss unexpectedly was this big shot! 他只听罗师兄说过自己的导师是搞数学物理的,却没想到他的老板竟然是这位大佬! This big shot actually flamboyant? 这位大佬究竟有多牛逼呢? The 80's time, the kinking theory was very hot, discovered many new kinking invariants, quite famous was jones-polynial, was the so-called Jones multinomial. 80年代的时候,扭结理论很火,发现了许多新的扭结不变量,其中比较著名的就是jones-polynial,也就是所谓的琼斯多项式。 When the mathematicians are still busy making clear this new concept, prepares to develop this new continent time, Witten jumps all of a sudden, told everyone: Many different 3- flow patterns, while many different standard groups, can construct many similar Jones's multinomial kinking invariants...... 当数学家们还在忙着搞清楚这一个新概念,准备开发这块新大陆的时候,威滕一下子跳出来,告诉所有人:有多少个不同的3-流型,乘上多少个不同的规范群,就可以构造多少个类似琼斯多项式的扭结不变量…… The issue as if all of a sudden changed simple, however this was also not most exasperating. 问题似乎一下子变简单了,然而这还不是最气人的。 What is most exasperating, he then gave one cutting flow pattern topological method, caught the whole lot in a dragnet the buried treasure in entire new continent directly, making other just step the person in new continent to cry but have no tears. 最气人的是,他紧接着便给出了一套剪切流型的拓扑方法,直接将整个新大陆上的宝藏一网打尽了,让其他刚刚踏上新大陆的人欲哭无泪。 Same matter also happened in the string discusses. 同样的事情还发生在弦论上。 The string since the 60's discussed in theory Physics is quite hot, everyone was vainly hoping for completes cause that Al Ain Starck has not completed, therefore emerged big pile of editions different ultra string theory. 从六十年代开始弦论在理论物理学界就相当火,所有人都梦想着完成爱因斯塔未完成的伟业,因此涌现了一大堆版本不同的“超弦理论”。 Then to the 90's, Witten ran, offered a sacrifice to the m theory in legend, and was well-founded proved the ultra string theories of many different versions, was actually his „the m theory the result under different limit setting condition...... 然后到了九十年代,威滕又跑了出来,祭出了传说中的m理论,并有理有据地证明了许多不同版本的超弦理论,其实是他的“m理论”的不同极限设定条件下的结果…… In some sense, this person and Lu Zhou the dry/does matter was a bit like six months ago. 从某种意义上来说,这人和陆舟半年前干的事儿有点像。 Originally Twin Prime Conjecture can also the aquatic at least more than 120 papers, but he did directly 246 this numbers 2, making others have no way out. 本来孪生素数猜想还能水上个至少一百二十多篇论文,但他直接把246这个数字干到了二,让别人无路可走。 However it is a pity that Venerable Witten, although as Physics, but takes is actually Fields rewards. 然而遗憾的是,威滕老先生虽然身为一名物理学家,但拿的却是菲尔茨奖。 After all modern theory Physics the inspection standards model, the granule of three dimensional world have not been making clear difficultly continually completely, you run the string that studies one-dimensional has, is unable to be convincing. 毕竟现代的理论物理学家们还在艰难地检验标准模型,连三维世界的粒子都没有完全搞清楚,你跑去研究一维存在的弦,怎么也无法让人信服。 Only if he can live for 300 years later, otherwise is doomed to miss with the Nobel prize. 除非他能活到三百年后,否则注定与诺贝尔奖无缘。 Fortunate meeting fortunate meeting, had heard so much about you!” Grips the right hand that Venerable Witten extends to shake shaking, Lu Zhou said with a smile. “幸会幸会,久仰大名了!”握住威滕老先生伸来的右手晃了晃,陆舟笑着说道。 Knows you very much happily, after” loosens the hand, Witten said with a smile, my old friend always mentions you with me, that splendid public lecture. What a pity at that time I not in Princeton, will otherwise certainly not miss.” “很高兴认识你,”松开手后,威滕笑着说道,“我的老朋友总是和我说起你,还有那场精彩的报告会。可惜当时我不在普林斯顿,否则一定不会错过。” Two people exchanged greetings several, the topic chatted the specialized aspect quickly. 两人寒暄了几句,话题很快聊到了专业方面。 „Are you interested in the mathematical physics?” “你对数学物理感兴趣?” Very is truly interested,” Lu Zhou nods, said with the chatting tone, aesthetic sense of theoretical physics in math is swoonsome.” “确实挺感兴趣,”陆舟点了点头,用闲聊的口吻说,“理论物理在数学上的美感令人着迷。” Venerable Witten pulled out a name card from the pocket: It seems like our views are very consistent, if you are interested in coming to Princeton to pursue advanced studies, can consider to report my postgraduate candidate.” 威滕老先生从兜里掏出了一张名片:“看来我们的看法很一致,如果你有兴趣来普林斯顿深造的话,可以考虑报我的博士生。” Received the name card from venerable's hand, Lu Zhou said politely: I will seriously consider your suggestion.” 从老先生的手中接过了名片,陆舟礼貌地说:“我会认真考虑您的建议。” Although Lu Zhou also wants to exchange a while with this big shot, but Witten as if also a little matter, then first step said goodbye. 虽然陆舟还想和这位大佬多交流一会儿,但威滕似乎还有点事情,便先一步告辞了。 Saw the boss to walk, Senior Brother Luo then did not have to act with constraint again, patted the shoulder of Lu Zhou, said, evening drank one cup together?” 见老板走了,罗师兄便没再那么矜持,拍了拍陆舟的肩膀,笑着说,“晚上一起去喝一杯?” Tonight possibly has no way to accompany you to drink, some of some of my data have not processed, changes the day after tomorrow, I invite you.” Lu Zhou said. “今天晚上可能没法陪你喝了,我还有一些数据没处理完,改后天晚上吧,我请你。”陆舟笑着说。 The alcohol can divert his attention, he needs a sober brain, cannot drink at this time. 酒精会分散他的注意力,他需要一个清醒的大脑,可不能在这时候喝酒。 That line, I am waiting for your glass of liquor, well come on!” Encouraged patted the shoulder of Lu Zhou, Senior Brother Luo also walked. “那行吧,我就等着你这杯酒了,好好加油!”鼓励的拍了拍陆舟的肩膀,罗师兄也走了。 After Senior Brother Luo said goodbye, Lu Zhou then to the conference site looked at the eye, discovered Academician Lu and Senior Brother strict already not. 和罗师兄告辞之后,陆舟回头向会场里看了眼,发现卢院士和严师兄已经不在了。 Was supposing two people first step return to the hotel mostly, Lu Zhou did not have to stop here, turned around to walk toward the direction of staircase. 估摸着两人多半是先一步回酒店了,陆舟也就没在这里多做停留,转身向楼梯的方向走去。 Goes down a building, is about to leave No. 2 research building. 走下一楼,正准备离开二号研究楼。 However at this moment, Lu Zhou sees suddenly, first that doctor of advance party on platform, the both arms hugs in the chest front, stands before that exit|to speak of his directly opposite, is sending out women from top to bottom. Bums air/Qi field. 然而就在这时,陆舟忽然看见,先前站在讲台上的那位女博士,正双臂抱在胸前,站在他正对面的那个出口前,浑身上下散发着“女流.氓”的气场。 Actually regarding foreigner, only if the appearance has the characteristics very much, his many are the face is a little busy. 其实对于外国人,除非长相很有特点,他多少是有点脸忙的。 But does to this, the chest front characteristics were really obvious, degree that to is unable to neglect. 但奈何这位,胸前的特征实在是太明显了,以至于到了根本无法忽视的程度。 Thinks, Lu Zhou pretends not to recognize this, walks toward the corridor calmly. 想了想,陆舟装作没有认出来这位,不动声色地向走廊另一侧走去。 He acknowledged, he truly feared. 他承认,他确实怕了。 The enthusiasm of foreigner, he has attempted in Princeton, really does not want to try one again. 洋人的热情,他在普林斯顿已经尝试过了,实在不想再尝试一回了。 Why so affirmed as for him, certainly will be dribbled to hit the person, actually the reason is also very simple. 至于他为什么如此肯定,一定会被带球撞人,其实原因也很简单。 After all, if because of that charming speech, he really cannot think, but also there are other what reasons, makes her wait for on and others is so long sufficiently here. 毕竟,如果不是因为自己那帅气的发言,他实在想不出来,还有什么其他的理由,足以让她在这里等自己等上那么久。 However, the trouble is is not so as if easy to hide. 然而,麻烦似乎并不是那么容易躲掉的。 Turns around in him, but also without going out two steps, then heard thump thump thump sound of footsteps. 就在他转过身去,还没走出两步,身后便传来了“噔噔噔”的脚步声。 In Lu Zhou heart one tight, is preparing to step out, actually saw the form to flash together front, blocked his way. 陆舟心中一紧,正准备加快脚步,却见一道身影已经闪到了面前,将他的去路挡住。 Quite quick! 好快! Subconscious, he prepared impact resistance. 下意识的,他做好了抗冲击的准备。 Air peaceful a while. 空气安静了一会儿。 Looks to keep off Miss Kerry before own, Lu Zhou sees anything not to happen, then somewhat coughed awkwardly lightly the sound, opens the mouth to ask. 看着挡在自己身前的凯瑞拉小姐,陆舟见什么事情也没有发生,便有些尴尬地轻咳了声,开口问道。 „...... Please ask, what matter has?” “……请问,有什么事吗?” The double bracelet in the chest front, Kerry eyes narrows the eyes slightly, stares at Lu Zhou, in the tone has several points to be discontented: Lets a woman on the stage embarrassed very interesting?” 双臂环在胸前,凯瑞拉的眼睛微微眯起,盯着陆舟,语气中带着几分不满:“让一位女士在台上难堪很有趣吗?” Lu Zhou gawked slightly, looked at her one eyes bewilderedly: I pointed out your mistakes, what relations this and are you woman or the gentleman have?” 陆舟微微愣了下,莫名其妙地看了她一眼:“我只是指出你们的错误,这和你是女士还是男士有什么关系吗?” On this matter. 就这事儿啊。 He also thinks that is anything. 他还以为是什么呢。 Looks at Lu Zhou this having no immediate concern to oneself appearance, Kerry bites giggle the straight sound the tooth, takes him to have no alternative. 看着陆舟这幅事不关己的样子,凯瑞拉将牙齿咬得咯咯直响,却偏偏又拿他无可奈何。 The deep breath the one breath, she is staring at Lu Zhou, said with the meaningful tone: Your public lecture in the day after tomorrow? I anticipated very much.” 深呼吸了一口气,她盯着陆舟,用意味深长的口吻说道:“你的报告会就在后天是吗?我很期待。” My meeting,” Lu Zhou smiles, well-mannered say/way, „, although does not know that you are anticipating anything, but I think, I should not fall short of your anticipation.” “我会的,”陆舟笑了笑,彬彬有礼道,“虽然不知道你在期待着什么,但我想,我应该不会辜负你的期待。”
