When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First

282 Let’s Discuss The Basics Since Everyone Is Here

The part was pointed out.

Luo Feng looked at the thesis and then at Mr. Gray below the stage, as if he had something to say.

When the Dean of the Mathematics Faculty saw Luo Feng like this, he looked like he could not bear to see him like this. “We have to comfort Luo Feng later. It’s not easy for him to do this.”

Professor Vincent snorted. “It’s just a setback. Failures in mathematical research are common. I’ll be fine after a little comfort.”

Just as the two of them were thinking about how to comfort him, Luo Feng spoke again.

“I’m sorry, everyone. I was inconsiderate.” Luo Feng flipped to the places where he had been pointed out. “I originally thought that there were some things that didn’t need to be explained, so I wrote them very generally.”

He had underestimated the power of the Skill Enhancement Card. The proof he gave exceeded this era. If it was in his previous life, people might not think that it was a mistake.

Luo Feng said seriously, “Then I’ll start from the basics.”

There was silence below the stage.

Everyone’s mouths were slightly agape. They couldn’t believe their ears.

They had been worrying about how to achieve higher achievement every day. They did not expect that one day, they would get someone to explain the basics again. You must be joking!

“… It’s over!” The Dean of the Mathematics Faculty’s heart skipped a beat. He did not dare to look up at everyone’s dark faces.

Luo Feng’s words were really offensive.

Throw a stone in the crowd, any one of them had some form of a small achievement. There were countless people who won awards. Luo Feng actually said that he wanted to teach them the basics!

“Oh no, this kid is in big trouble!”

The auditorium was clearly air-conditioned, but the forehead of the Dean of the Mathematics Faculty was covered in sweat.

If he offended this group of people, no matter how much the school protected him, Luo Feng would not have a future in mathematics!

“Maybe he’s really confident…” Professor Vincent’s expression was numb. “On the bright side, Luo Feng can continue to study under his Finance Faculty…”

What he needed to worry about more was the school’s situation!

…

Luo Feng acted as if he did not see the gazes below. He took out a marker pen and wrote on the whiteboard behind him. Then, the video recorder projected it onto the big screen so that everyone could see it clearly.

“Regarding the question just now, you probably didn’t understand my most basic tool. This is the starting point of my proof…” Luo Feng wrote down a definition.

“This is…” Mr. Gray was suddenly shocked. He couldn’t help but frown as he carefully looked at the row of words Luo Feng had written.

This line of definition existed in the paper, but Mr. Gray didn’t pay much attention to it when he read it. He thought it was just a small tool.

Luo Feng continued, “If you want the later results, you have to abandon your previous train of thought and start from this definition to open a new path.”

The definition he used was a tool that appeared under the effect of the Upgrade Card. He could not rule out the influence of his previous life. After all, the mathematical discovery at that time was more than ten years ahead of the current one.

However, the others did not have advanced technology, nor had they seen the mathematics of the future. As a result, many people had many questions about it.

Luo Feng’s pen quickly wrote on the whiteboard.

“Abandon? From the definition…” Mr. Gray stared fixedly at the big screen and really followed Luo Feng’s train of thought.

His frown deepened. He kept feeling as if something was flashing past his eyes, but he could not catch it.

Jian Yang and the others looked at Luo Feng’s proof and became more and more engrossed.

He also had a strange feeling that he had never felt before, but he couldn’t tell what it was exactly. His heart surged like waves that kept washing away his old thoughts.

“This is it! This is it!”

At this moment, a series of exclamations came from not far away.

Joshua was shocked, and his entire body trembled slightly. His eyes looked at Luo Feng, and his breathing became more and more rushed.

“Professor, are you alright?” The person beside him asked worriedly.

After all, he was an old man who was almost 90 years old. He had just come out of the hospital recently and was so excited. Everyone present was worried that something had happened to him.

“No need! I’m fine!” Joshua waved his hand, his eyes never leaving the big screen.

“Professor Joshua, your health is more important…” Jian Yang also stepped forward to show his concern.

Joshua raised a trembling hand and pointed ahead, as if he did not hear his concern. “Jian, do you know what that is?”

Jian Yang was not in a hurry to answer. He heard Joshua continue, “That seems to be able to achieve the unification of geometry and algebra! The thing that we have been waiting for many years has finally happened!”

Hearing this, Jian Yang’s mind buzzed.

He suddenly understood what that strange feeling in his heart was!

“Finally… I’ve witnessed history!” Joshua muttered, his eyes filled with tears.

Jian Yang also felt the same way. He did not expect that he would actually be able to witness a classic problem being solved in his lifetime. This was a huge contribution to the development of mathematics!

…

As Luo Feng explained further, more and more students became excited. They listened until their eyes widened and held their breaths, not daring to speak. They relied on their eyes to communicate with each other.

“Why do I feel like I don’t understand…”

“I think I understand a little.”

“Is this the foundation he was talking about?”

Some scholars had limited abilities and could not understand halfway. They wanted to discuss if it was Luo Feng’s problem or their own.

However, when they saw the excited reactions of Professor Joshua and Mr. Gray, the scholars were too embarrassed to speak.

The world-renowned top mathematicians were attracted by Luo Feng’s so-called exclusion. It was enough to show that those who did not understand were not capable enough. Why should they say it out loud to embarrass themselves?

However, at this moment, everyone could not help but feel sad.

…

Luo Feng spoke for a long time as he started from the proof tool.

It began in the morning, and it wasn’t until four o’clock in the afternoon that he stopped to take a sip of water. No one said anything about a time-out during that time.

“This is the end of my proof.” Luo Feng placed the last stroke. His throat was so dry that smoke was about to come out.

The audience was silent. Everyone was silent, as if they were still immersed in the proof process.

Clap, clap, clap—

The auditorium echoed with Mr. Gray’s applause.

Subsequently, more and more scholars stood up and applauded. Gradually, the applause grew louder and louder until it was like thunder, almost tearing open the roof of the auditorium.

Even those who did not understand understood that Hodge’s conjecture had been conquered by Luo Feng!

The Dean of the Mathematics Faculty and Professor Vincent were stunned.

“Am I seeing things? They’re all clapping for Luo Feng… Mathematicians, are you clapping for Luo Feng?” The Dean of the Mathematics Faculty was in disbelief.

At this moment, Luo Feng had already been invited to Mr. Gray’s side by his student.

The old man was old and it was inconvenient for him to move. If possible, he really wanted to rush to the podium to congratulate Luo Feng. That was what Joshua did.

The two strongest mathematicians of the current generation surrounded Luo Feng and kept praising him.

The others were even more excited, but considering the bodies of the two old men, they only dared to form a circle around the three of them.

They were like a group of celebrity chasers!
