Chapter 487: The day that was remembered

Chapter 487
In the history of world mathematics, one day was deeply remembered.
That was February 17, 2026.
Princeton University announced a sensational news to the outside world.
The BSD conjecture that has plagued the world's mathematics for more than 100 years has been successfully proved!
Since then, there have been seven conjectures in the world, only five conjectures remain!
At the same time, the official website of the Annals of Mathematics posted the full versions of Cheng Nuo's four papers.
This sensational news spread and spread quickly.
In just a few hours, it caused the whole mathematics circle to boil.
Surprised, shocked, and then full of doubts.
Princeton announced the news at night, so when countless mathematicians learned that the BSD conjecture had been proven, no one was asleep.
But one by one began to inquire about news with people who knew each other.
Who is the one who proved the BSD conjecture?
Is it a big boss, or a little-known mathematician?
Soon, everyone learned the name of that person-Cheng Nuo!
They froze for a moment, thinking about what kind of character Cheng Nuo was.
But soon, they remembered.
This Cheng Nuo is just the new talented newcomer who made a lot of noise in the geometric world two years ago.
At that time, according to the news, after returning to China, Cheng Nuo did not continue his research in the geometric direction, but launched an impact on the BSD conjecture.
Many people think that Cheng Nuo does not know the heights of the world.
But now it seems that the young man who is not optimistic about them has really climbed to the top of the BSD conjecture!
Many people have bitter smiles on their faces.
In the eyes of Cheng Nuo, the remarks made by these people before were probably just treated as clowns.
…………
The BSD conjecture was successfully proved!
This incident not only caused a huge sensation in the mathematics circle, but also caused many repercussions in society.
On the bib, the topic #BSD猜想被证#, in just a few hours, was on the top of the hot search list.
Especially after learning that the prover of the conjecture was a Chinese mathematician, the Chinese netizens were as excited as a chicken blood.
That feeling seemed to prove that BSD guessed not Cheng Nuo, but their own.
Tsinghua University even published the official micro:
"Under the two-year cooperative research of two mathematicians Cheng Nuo and Zhang Wei of our school, the BSD conjecture, one of the seven largest conjectures in the world, has been successfully proved! Let us congratulate the two mathematicians for their excellent performance![撒花][撒花]"
Finally, a photo of Cheng Nuo and Zhang Wei was posted.
Within an hour, this bib received thousands of comments and tens of thousands of likes and comments.
"Strong, I am great at Tsinghua!"
"I am a graduate student in the Department of Mathematics at Shanda University. I would like to give you some popular science. The BSD conjecture was recognized by the Clay Institute of Mathematics in 2000 as one of the seven major mathematics problems in the millennium. Each of these seven conjectures is more difficult than others. The familiar Goldbach conjecture. Prior to this, only one of the seven major mathematical conjectures was proved! And it was 20 years ago! In this way, you should know the significance of the BSD conjecture being proved!"
"Wow! It looks amazing! But the focus of my attention is that photo. Have you noticed that Professor Cheng Nuo is very young!"
"And also very handsome! [花心][花心]"
"Just after Baidu came back, do you know how old Professor Cheng Nuo is this year? He is only 24 years old! Professor Cheng graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and stayed at MIT to teach after graduation. He was directly promoted to full professor within six months. Before, I returned to China in response to the overseas talent introduction plan and taught at Tsinghua University!"
"This...Professor Cheng and we are probably not the same species!"
"Before I suspected that I was born to make up with humans. Now that I see this news, I have confirmed this even more."
Immediately afterwards, the topic #程诺# also rose rapidly on the hot search list.
Six years ago, Cheng Nuo's video of participating in "The Most Powerful Brain" was also picked up by omnipotent netizens and posted online.
Everyone realized that the young man who shined in the international competitions has grown to such a high level.
…………
After the BSD conjecture was proved, the vibrations continued.
Some people were surprised by the fact that the BSD conjecture was proved, and many people turned their attention to Cheng Nuo.
What was not optimistic at the beginning, now the glory is crowned.
The reality is that they slapped the group so hard.
Everyone didn't know what Cheng Nuo had experienced in this year and a half, but it would certainly not be too smooth.
But as a result, he succeeded. The BSD conjecture that several generations of mathematicians had never conquered, was conquered by him!
One step is to reach the top of mathematics.
Now, Cheng Nuo has become a character they can only look up to.
Become a mathematician at the same level as his teacher, Professor Fresnel, standing at the top of the pyramid.
This era, because of Cheng Nuo's existence, is bound to shine!
…………
Some time ago, the Philippine Award nomination list circulated on the Internet, after the news came out, the ranking also changed rapidly.
Netizens are very realistic people.
Knowing that Cheng Nuo had proved the BSD conjecture, Cheng Nuo, who was ranked 37th on the list, dropped to the first place with an invincible posture after the ranking was refreshed.
In this ranking, every mathematician is accompanied by a data on the probability of winning.
At the time when Cheng Nuo crane was behind, netizens predicted that Cheng Nuo's chance of winning was only 0.87%.
But this time, after Cheng Nuo was airborne first, the probability of winning was directly written 100%.
In the eyes of professionals and private netizens, this year's Philippine Award trophy is already Cheng Nuo's pocket.
This is also true.
If a mathematician who has proved one of the seven major conjectures in the world can't even get the Fields Medal trophy, then this award will not be awarded directly.
In other words, within less than six months from now to August 1, as long as Cheng Nuo does not hang up, one of the four Fields Award places has been reserved by Cheng Nuo.
And China, the first Philippine Prize winner is about to appear!
…………
Tsinghua University, Institute of Mathematics.
The front door of the deputy director's office ~EbookFREE.me~ is blocked.
The students who came here were not only the mathematics department, but also students from other colleges of Tsinghua University who also came to see this "genius professor" who has been popular online in recent days.
Therefore, in the past few days, Cheng Nuo came to work only after this group of people dispersed.
At this time, Cheng Nuo was "evacuating" in Dean Ding's office.
Academician Ding teased with a smile, "I heard that you recently became an internet celebrity? Not bad!"
Cheng Nuo shook his head and smiled helplessly, "I don't care about this kind of internet celebrity. I'm too tired!"
"Remind you again, in the past six months, don't have any accidents. The Fields Medal that you have held tightly in your hands, in the end, don't become an empty joy. Your safety is now the top priority!" Dean Ding looked on. Solemnly said, "I have applied to the above, and the personnel will be transferred to protect your safety."
Cheng Nuo's eyes widened, "Dean, it's not necessary. I'm a pure number researcher, unlike the group of people who deal with things and counts. Would other countries try their best to me?"
"Prevent trouble before it happens." Dean Ding waved his hand. "We just try to avoid accidents as much as possible."
