Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Jinling suburbs.

Lu Zhou, who had just sneezed, reached out his hand and rubbed his nose. He stared at the holographic image projected in front of him and meditated for a while.

Suddenly, he muttered, “Maybe I should hire an assistant.”

“Huh??? Xiao Ai can’t satisfy Master anymore? ??∑(゚Д゚ノ)ノ”

Lu Zhou was just speaking casually; he didn’t expect to cause an unintelligent AI to panic.

Seeing Xiao Ai who was jumping pitifully in front of him, Lu Zhou sighed.

“It’s because you always act like this. I need a normal assistant.”

Xiao Ai: “But… but… QAQ”

Lu Zhou sighed and said, “Okay, well, I’m not saying you are useless, but some tasks are really not suitable for AI to do. Especially the part that involves fuzzy calculations. It may be too difficult for you. ”

Xiao Ai: “How do you know if Xiao Ai doesn’t try? (=゚ω゚)”

“Then I’ll be straightforward. I plan to simplify the Z particle’s gravitational wave equation, use mathematical methods to predict the results of the Z particle transition effect more accurately, and establish a more accurate Z particle vibration frequency and space-time curvature. The mathematical model between… Are you still listening?”

Xiao Ai: “… (゚Д゚≡゚Д゚)”

Lu Zhou: “…”

…

As early as a century ago, Lu Zhou published a paper titled “The Effect of The Z Particle Transition on Spacetime Curvature” on arXiv and “Future”.

The core mathematical and physics formulas cited in this paper was the gravitational wave equation of the Z particle completed by Professor Wei Hong and Dobrik.

How this equation was discovered was a tortuous story.

However, this was obviously not the time to talk about the past. To open a stable hyperspace channel, it was necessary to find the precise relationship between the frequency of Z particle oscillations and the curvature of space-time.

In fact, Lu Zhou should have done this a long time ago, but because of many things that happened at the time, the job was delayed again and again, so it wasn’t completed even after a century…

Jin Ling University, mathematics department building.

In an activity room of the building, two young men stood in front of a whiteboard with a holographic projection. They seemed to be thinking about something.

“Very interesting question.”

After staring at the calculations on the blackboard for a long time, Professor Sun Jingwen gently pushed the holographic glasses on the bridge of his nose and gave an evaluation, “On the surface, this is a physics problem, but from the final analysis, the problems involved are concentrated in the field of mathematics.”

“That’s right, so I found you.” Lu Zhou glanced at him and asked, “Any good ideas?”

He still had a good impression of Professor Sun; otherwise, he would not specifically find him to discuss this issue.

On one hand, the honors he received proved his strength. On the other hand, he was moved by the courage of this guy to challenge the generalized Riemann hypothesis and face the treasures that he left for the mathematics world.

Although he was still a little bit worse in terms of academic ability, Lu Zhou didn’t think this was a big problem.

He didn’t expect Professor Sun to directly solve the difficulties he faced. All he expected was for this guy to stand from another angle and provide an idea that he hadn’t considered.

However, the reaction of Professor Sun did not live up to Lu Zhou’s expectations.

As he faced the whiteboard, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he didn’t know what to say.

“If even you can’t think of any ideas, how could I have any good ideas?”

Hearing these words, Lu Zhou felt a little disappointed. He sighed and said, “If this is what you think, pretend like I didn’t ask.”

If you set your own limits without thinking deeply and subconsciously think that this problem is invincible, then you won’t even have to try.

Even if you did try, you probably wouldn’t produce any results.

Perhaps Professor Sun Jingwen was triggered by the disappointed expression on Lu Zhou’s face, because he gritted his teeth and said bitterly, “Wait a minute… Can you give me a chance?”

“Of course.” Lu Zhou nodded nonchalantly. Lu Zhou glanced at the calculations on the whiteboard and continued, “I intend to post this question as a public proposition on the LSPM forum.”

“If anyone can solve it, in my opinion, a Lu Zhou Mathematics Prize is deserved.”

Although, in the beginning, it was just for the convenience of publishing the proof for the ABC conjecture, today, LSPM had developed into an open academic forum.

Many well-known big names in mathematics today had accounts in that forum.

If a problem was released in Lu Zhou’s own name, there should be many people who would be interested.

As soon as he heard the mention of the Lu Zhou Mathematics Prize, Professor Sun Jingwen suddenly became interested.

That was the highest honor in mathematics today; the undisputed holy grail of mathematics! It was given only once a year and only awarded to one person at a time, to the scholar with the most outstanding mathematics contribution!

Since the 2050s, many people had been waiting to receive this reward, but only a few of them had actually won this medal.

Even though he didn’t research mathematics for the sake of rewards—it was purely because he loved the subject—the glory of this reward was still enough to make Sun Jingwen intrigued.

Seeing the expression on the young scholar’s face, Lu Zhou smiled and nodded without making any comments.

I feel like I just saw my younger self in him.

It’s just that in terms of strength and mentality, he hasn’t matured yet, and he still lacks some experience…

After leaving the activity room, Lu Zhou went back to his office.

After returning to campus life, for the time being, he was either preparing lessons during this time, researching his hyperspace theory, or occasionally giving instructions to Academician Ge Huaizhi and the others.

However, upon returning to the office, before he could even start working, the old dean came to his office and opened the door.

Academician Qin Chuan looked at Lu Zhou sitting at the desk. The dean of the mathematics department then walked up with a smile and spoke with concern.

“How is it? It’s been a hundred years, did the young scholars of Jin Ling University let you down?”

As the current academic leader of the Lu Zhou school of thought, he was always concerned about the affairs of this ancestor.

As long as he had spare time, he would come over and visit Lu Zhou.

“How could I be disappointed with my students?” Lu Zhou said with a smile, “I feel a little guilty to see them so hardworking and studious.”

Dean Qin smiled and said, “Haha, don’t say that. If they can have half your diligence, the awards of our school will be doubled.”

Lu Zhou: “Scientific research is not a competition. Winning or not is secondary. As long as they are learning, I am happy.”

Qin Chuan: “Forget about the students, are you used to living in this era?”

Lu Zhou smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry about me. I am not the kind of person who hides his problems.”

“I’m relieved to hear that.” Dean Qin said with a smile, “If you need any help, be sure to tell me. As long as we can help, we will do our best!”

“Then I will say thank you in advance.”

Lu Zhou nodded. He was about to say something, but at this moment, the phone rang.

Seeing Lu Zhou’s phone ringing, Dean Qin suddenly smiled and said, “Seems like you have some work to do, so I won’t bother you.”

After speaking, he quickly turned and walked away.

Once the door of the office was closed, the room became quiet again.

Seeing the unfamiliar number, Lu Zhou guessed that it was probably from the Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences, calling him to discuss matters related to the space elevator. He didn’t hesitate and simply pressed the button to connect.

However, what he didn’t expect was that there was a familiar voice coming from the other end of the phone.

“Hello, I’m Lu Xiaoqiao, your… probably granddaughter.”

Lu Zhou was surprised as to why Lu Xiaoqiao called him, so he asked curiously, “Do you need anything?”

“It may not be convenient on the phone, are you free lately?”

“Kind of.”

She took a deep breath on the other end of the phone and spoke in a serious tone.

“If you can, could you please come to Beijing?”
