“Professor Tian Hai will definitely be very happy.” Lu Dong sighed.
Chang Yuan was Tian Hai’s most admired student. The three of them had originally dreamed of proving this conjecture.
Now that Chang Yuan’s student had helped them complete this task, their dreams were not dashed.
“I’m going to see Professor Tian Hai. I’m flying tomorrow, so I’ll go immediately,” Lu Dong said.
Hai Tian was already 70 years old this year and no longer taught. He had also obtained many other academic achievements in the past few years as a professor. He was considered one of the top scholars in the entire Chinese mathematics world.
However, this conjecture had always been a knot in his heart.
Now that someone had solved this conjecture, Lu Dong thought that he had to inform Professor Tian Hai immediately.
This matter could not be delayed. If Professor Tian Hai also approved of Guo Miao’s results, then this document could be compiled into a thesis and sent to an international journal.
At that time, not only the academic community in Haicheng but also the academic community in China and the entire world would be shocked.
“Alright, you eat first. I’ll help you pack your luggage,” Chen Huan said.
Lu Dong’s plane arrived in Beijing at 8 a.m. the next morning. Lu Dong was so excited that he didn’t sleep a wink.
This problem that had troubled them for many years had been solved by Guo Miao, a high school student. They didn’t expect to see such a day in their lifetime.
When Lu Dong arrived at Tian Hai’s house, it was 9:30 in the morning.
Tian Hai opened the door and looked at the travel-worn Lu Dong. He was a little puzzled. “Why are you here? It’s not a holiday.”
“No, no, no. Sir, it’s urgent.” Lu Dong anxiously entered the door, not even bothering to change his shoes.
He walked to Tian Hai’s computer, inserted the USB drive into the computer, and opened the 50-page document.
Tian Hai frowned, put on his presbyopic glasses, and looked at the document on the computer.
“Proof of Kratz’s conjecture?” As Tian Hai spoke, he read the words on the document. “Lu Dong, why are you still so obsessed with this problem? Back then, we worked on it for so long, but the final result was not satisfactory. I feel that human intelligence has not reached the point whereby it can solve this problem.”
Tian Hai had been a professor for the last few years, but he still gave up on understanding this difficult problem.
He didn’t think that anyone could solve this problem.
The results of their research back then were still the most advanced in the world. For decades, no one had been able to find new progress.
Lu Dong shook his head and looked at Tian Hai. “No, sir. A student from Haicheng proved Kratz’s conjecture.”
“What?” Tian Hai almost doubted his ears.
This conjecture had been a difficult problem for hundreds of years. How could it have been proven so easily?
“It was a genius girl who accidentally solved it,” Lu Dong said.
Tian Hai took a chair from the other side and sat down. He adjusted his presbyopic glasses. “You’re really not lying to me. Is it the Kratz’s conjecture we were talking about?”
Lu Dong nodded solemnly. “Yes.”
Tian Hai almost thought he was dreaming.
“Is she your student at Haicheng University, or someone else? Have you verified this?” Tian Hai stared at the screen and frowned.
He had just glanced at the content in front of him. It was the progress they had made in the past few years. “The content in the front is no different from what we have studied before. What about the content after that?”
“I read it all night. It should be… It’s flawless,” Lu Dong said.
Seeing that his student was about to fall off the chair, Tian Hai nodded. “Okay, I’ll take a look. You should go and rest first.”
Tian Hai still didn’t believe that someone could prove Kratz’s conjecture.
For hundreds of years, countless mathematicians and teams had spent their entire lives trying to prove this conjecture. How could such a difficult problem be solved by one person?
“You won’t be disappointed.” Lu Dong nodded, stood up, and walked to the bedroom.
Lu Dong slept for a full six hours. When he woke up, it was already afternoon. The bright sunlight filled the entire room.
Tian Hai maintained his posture and stared at the computer in front of him.
“Sir, have you finished reading?” Lu Dong asked carefully. He had already calculated the contents once, so there should be no problem.
“It’s really great. I didn’t expect to see Kratz’s conjecture being proved in my lifetime.” Tian Hai slowly turned around.
Only then did Lu Dong notice the tears flowing down his teacher’s face..
