I Exchange For Black Technology By Blowing Up The Bully

Chapter 241 The Space Race Begins!

Song He took photos of the proof process one by one.

Catalina quickly lowered her head to check and kept calculating with her pen.

After half an hour, she finally stopped writing, looking dazed.

[Katerina was shocked when she found out that you had completed your proof, and her resentment value was +600! 】

[Katrina worked hard all day and thought she was in the lead, but you ended the game. The resentment value is +700! 】

"I roughly verified it... It seems... you have confirmed it." Catalina collapsed a little, "Why are you so fast?"

"Actually, the proof process is not watertight. There are seven or eight loopholes that require additional proofs, but the big framework is fine." Song He added, "I wrote in a hurry, and the details need to be fixed."

Katerina was deeply shocked and rubbed her face repeatedly with her small hands, feeling extremely frustrated.

She felt what Shekov was feeling.

This feels like running a marathon. Halfway through, you are gritting your teeth and holding on, when your competitor snaps and teleports to the finish line, and they cross the line right after they say they have crossed the line!

"In this case..." Catalina said sadly, "I have to let you hang up. After all, you were the one who proved it."

Song He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and said with a smile, "I have agreed in advance that you will not be able to do it, how can I change it?"

"When I told you in advance, I thought Shekov and I could complete the proof first, but in fact we were secretly cooperating behind your back..."

"We worked hard to prove it all day today, and our wrists are almost broken from fatigue, just because we are afraid that you will be the first to do it."

Catalina was extremely frustrated, "We only got about 70% of the certification. Before you called me, I was very happy and thought I could be ahead of you..."

"But Shekov said that this conjecture is very important to you." Song He said nonchalantly, "You must fail a paper, otherwise it will affect your future and destiny. To me, this paper is just a casual proof, just like doing homework. "

"Homework?!" Catalina collapsed, "This is Sassoon's conjecture. Do you regard it as homework?"

"It takes about the same amount of time." Song He said calmly, "It's just that the homework is a lot of questions, and this is one question."

Catalina covered her face and let out a howling sound, like a snake that had been beaten to pieces, completely desperate.

Why do you still feel guilty when you kill someone?

"No, if you are an ordinary student, I can give you some money to buy a work." Katarina finally insisted, "But Shekov said you are rich, so I have nothing to give you, and your results must be One work."

Catalina's tone was painful, but also sincere.

"Let's see, the paper still needs to fix the loopholes. You are responsible for fixing the loopholes." Song He paused and made a decision, "When it is published in the end, we will be a joint author! Put your name first!"

Collaboration has also been a common practice in academic circles for many years.

Some reasons for joint work are legitimate, such as two research groups working together, but it is unclear who has made the greater contribution. Or two people are responsible for working in different fields, such as one person is responsible for physics and the other is responsible for mathematics. In such cases, it is inevitable to work together.

Of course, gray joint works are also common, such as academic Daji, academic Lao Ai, rich brothers buying papers for their daughter, or authoritative tutors forcefully grabbing articles, exchange of interests in academic circles, etc.

For example, Song He goes to the biology laboratory every day and sits leisurely without doing any hands-on work. His name is attached to Song He's short paper that the senior brothers and sisters worked hard to produce, which is undoubtedly a bit gray.

But it is only light gray. Firstly, he helps review manuscripts to improve the acceptance rate. Secondly, he is not greedy for one work. He hangs it at the end of the author column every time, serving as a foil for the green leaves of red flowers.

Of course, the seats for co-authoring are limited, and it is best not to exceed three people. Song He and Catalina are just the right number for co-authoring.

On the phone screen, Catalina struggled for a long time and finally nodded.

"If you are a co-author and my name is put in front, I owe you a favor." Catalina cupped her chin and said, "You can take something from me."

"No need for anything else. If there is a math task in the future, I will ask you to help." Song He did not refuse.

Catalina was finally relieved and smiled, "Okay, I'll be on call! Then I'll start fixing the loopholes now?"

"Let's make it up." Song He said, "Hang up the phone and you'll make up for it yourself? Or stay on the phone and ask me any questions you have?"

"Keep it!" Catalina said decisively.

The video call continued, and Song He took out the third book "Thinking to Prove Mathematical Conjectures" and put it aside to read.

Compared with the first two books, the difficulty of the third book has increased sharply. On average, a chapter is thirty or forty pages long. It is full of references and references, which makes it quite a headache to read.

Song He couldn't help but worry that he had chosen an academic path, and the headaches were secondary to his fear of becoming bald at a young age...

Catalina across from her also rubbed her head with her hands from time to time, apparently suffering from a headache as well.

Song He used a mental arithmetic capsule when writing the proof process. Once the power was turned on, all major calculations were smooth.

But Katarina's body was mortal and her brain power was limited, so she was in great pain when she absorbed the entire proof process at once.

Both sides are suffering from math headaches, sending messages and chatting every ten minutes to relax their tense brains. Although we are thousands of miles apart, we have the illusion that our classmates are studying together in the evening.

"What's your relationship with Shekov?" Song He gossiped.

"Good friend." Katerina hesitated for a moment.

"My good friend, why are you hesitating? Don't worry, I'm strict with my words and won't tell him."

"I don't know...it seems to be more than a good friend, but it doesn't seem like it is." Katarina replied tangledly, "Every time I ask him if he likes me, he doesn't admit it."

Song He continued to flip through the book and thought to himself, Shekov, you are useless. A grown man who is shy and afraid of getting into trouble, how can he stand on a horse and become the king?

Ten minutes later, after reading a chapter, Song He took a break and decided to give his good brother a push.

"I worked with Shekov in the cafeteria the past two days, and he did homework on the notes on his mobile phone, taking stock of the food and attractions in Jinghai City."

"I stated that I am familiar with Jinghai City, and I will take you wherever you want to go. Shekov's eyes were averted at that time, and he vaguely said that a friend might be coming in a few days, and he planned to take his friend out to play."

"That friend he mentioned is you, right?" Song He winked.

"It's me, but I'm afraid I won't go." Catalina looked complicated and sighed.

"Why?" Song He was startled.

"I told him that after I proved Sassoon's conjecture, I would consider studying abroad at Jinghai University. But in fact, I lied to him. I would not consider it at all because I have other tasks." Catalina said, "Probably. There will be news in a few hours.”

"News?" Song He was surprised, "Big news? Can I see it?"

"The whole world will see it." Catalina paused, "You fired the first shot, and the space race has begun!"

Song He's eyes narrowed.

…

The dormitory next door.

Shekov was busy proving Sassoon's conjecture, with empty beer bottles lying around his legs.

Mobile phone vibration.

Catalina: "There is no need to prove Sassoon's conjecture. Thank you for your help. You can rest."

Shekov replied in astonishment, "Why don't you need a certificate? I just took a step forward! Wait a minute and I will take a picture for you!"
