Chapter 346 Fly to Earth (Part 2)

Mathematics is universal in the universe. Even if real matter is different, Wang Qing believes that intelligent creatures that can develop civilizations should have the same mathematical thinking, because mathematics is abstract and does not involve a kind of thinking of actual matter. Only by mapping actual matter with it can we truly establish a practical effect.

In other words, no matter what race or culture the other party is, the other party should be able to understand the mathematical language. The reason why he did not believe that the other party was an alien before was because the two parties did not have language barriers in communication.

But through this game, he discovered that everything inside should be no different from the real spacecraft, it is just bigger and more advanced.

He wanted to use a mathematical problem to prove whether the other party was an alien. Mathematical problems were not casually fooled, nor did there be any great mathematicians or hidden masters in the valley. This is a subject that requires high communication. Any closed one is lagging behind without exception.

"…………The above is a mathematical problem I raised. On Earth, it is called the Goldbach conjecture, which has stumped countless people."

Wang Qing naturally threw out this famous mathematical problem. Many people claimed that he had proved this mathematical conjecture, but no answer was recognized. Today, with the rapid progress of computers, it has not been perfectly solved.

"This is interesting, but I'm not good at this, but I know a group of guys like to play with these numbers. Wait for me, I'll wake them up," the guard said, and turned around and left.

Wang Qing was waiting anxiously. What exactly is it? It will be verified soon.

……………………

"This, is this the answer to the Goldbach conjecture?" Wang Qing couldn't help but shocked when he looked at an article that seemed complicated to the outsider, but as long as he had certain mathematical attainments. Although he did not study mathematics carefully, he still mastered the high-level knowledge related to mathematics. After all, mathematics is a tool for all scientific research.

He quickly called a few students to see if the article on the screen was correct or not.

The few people plunged in. It took more than two hours to finally understand the entire reasoning process.

"It's totally correct, so wonderful. There's such a mathematical method?!"

After Wang Qing confirmed the correctness, he suddenly thought that he had not replied for a long time and whether the other party in the game was impatient. However, when he replied, he found that the other party didn't care at all and was very patient.

"You are so amazing, such a clever way of thinking. We have spent hundreds of years not finding it. How did they come up with it?"

"Nothing. Those who like to play digital games have already studied this kind of similar problem, but they have tens of thousands of years to spend on it."

Wang Qing couldn't help but shock. It seems that it is not that the people on earth are not smart, but that they have developed for too short. Fortunately, the other party has no threat to the earth in terms of tone and content. On the other hand, the earth can learn a lot.

Thinking of this, his heart suddenly jumped up. He immediately turned around and said to the students and assistants around him, "Everyone must keep this matter confidential."

There are five people in this laboratory now, three students, and two are external assistants. As research-oriented people, they don’t have much scheming.

Soon someone's face changed, and he also thought of Wang Qing's purpose.

"If this article is published, it will immediately gain both fame and fortune." Someone began to whisper.

They recalled the proof of this mathematical conjecture by their country in the last century, and some people made significant progress, and in that era, they also received high attention from the state, let alone the current situation.

Internet communication is so developed that once it is announced, it will immediately cause a sensation in the world. There is no need to worry that someone will steal the results. After all, it is too easy for the first publisher to check.

"But this is not our achievement. As scientific researchers, how can we steal it for ourselves?" Wang Qing was still a little conscientious. There are still a group of persistent people in the industry where copying papers has become popular, and he is one of them.

"But, this is also something we can get from communication," one of his assistants couldn't bear it. He worked hard for many years and did not make much profit. He just had a good reputation outside and could not get a car ticket. In this kind of industry, the top people get projects and funds, and he can only work as a coolie, and he does not have as many white-collar workers who have the ability to make money.

"Yes, it's a pity to stay here and not publish it." One of his students also muttered. Of course, they don't have the courage to treat teachers like this, but now they can't stand it in front of fame and fortune. Even if they sign a name at the end, it is world reputation and history books are to be circulated.

"But after all, it's not what we study. Besides, we are not from the field of mathematics. We can understand this article, but it is impossible to tell others how the various mathematical methods and tools were thought of." Wang Qing shook his head. He could also prove many things with calculus, but it is impossible to tell others how he invented calculus from scratch.

"Then ask the other party if you can sign a code name and let us publish it on your behalf." An assistant settled for the second best, and at least gained a lot. At least it could be exchanged for reputation. Once the reputation comes, can there be fewer college invitations for various lectures?

"Okay" Wang Qing naturally didn't want to bury such a precious mathematical proof just like this. He soon replied to the guard in the game again.

"Thank you for giving me this mathematical answer. I don't know whether you allow us to publish on the earth, and of course the right to sign is still there." Before he knew it, he already respected the other party very much. This is the authority brought by knowledge. It is different from violence. It can make a person obey from the heart.

"Of course, they have a lot of this thing, just publish it casually. As for the name, you can sign the code name 'Counting Stone'." The guard didn't care at all.

"Thank you," Wang Qing was overjoyed. As the person who got this answer after the exchange, he, like these assistants, could gain both fame and fortune, just like those who discovered it.

He took the opportunity to raise many mathematical problems and asked his assistant to quickly collect mathematical journals from previous years and collect the above problems.

…………

"There are 158 questions in total, all mathematical problems with world weight. If you prove one, you can win the Fields Medal. But how should we publish it now? When others ask the source, how should we explain it?" Although we obtained permission to publish the other party to post the answer, how to publish it stumped the other party.
