Oxford University.
Inside the same office.
After cleaning up, Professor Brian sat at his desk and looked at the note in his hand. He took a deep breath and nodded at the photographer standing at the office door.
"You can begin."
The cameraman didn't say anything. He only made a gesture, indicating that he understood.
Professor Brian looked at the camera and went silent for a while. He then spoke.
"… It is extremely irresponsible to make such accusations against a scholar's academic character without a thorough investigation. Even though there were many coincidences and misunderstandings, I still have an unshirkable responsibility. "
He paused for a second and slowly lowered his eyebrows.
"For what happened some time ago, I would like to apologize to Professor Lu Zhou.
"Even though I know there are some things that an apology can't make up for, I still sincerely ask for your forgiveness."
Apologizing was not an easy thing to do.
This was especially true for a proud and narrow-minded person like him.
Of course, that person was a thing of the past.
Over the past month, he had been researching the torus Euclid spacetime. Not only did he make academic progress, but his mentality was also much stronger than before.
Even though it was embarrassing to say this …
However, this was the reality. Professor Lu Zhou used a special way to give him a vivid physics lesson …
This apology video wasn't just an apology or a thank you.
It was also to say goodbye to his past self.
…
The edited video was very short; it was less than five minutes long.
After it was uploaded to YouTube, it only received a few views.
After all, it had been more than a month since he accused Lu Zhou of plagiarizing his thesis on the Daily Mail. This matter had long since faded away. For most of the onlookers, they were just there to watch the show. As for what the truth of the matter was, not many people actually cared … even though the Daily Mail used about half a palm's worth of space to report this matter.
After Brian Caro uploaded the video, he sat at his desk and went silent for a while. He then turned on his computer and sent an email to Lu Zhou's email.
When Lu Zhou sat in his office at Jin Ling University and watched this video, it was already two days later …
"Amazing … Professor, how did you do it?"
Standing next to the desk, Zhao Huan watched the apology video projected on the computer. She looked at Lu Zhou with admiration, and her tone was full of disbelief.
She really couldn't figure out how to make a "rogue" apologize so sincerely …
It might be a little too much to say that.
However, in the eyes of an outsider, Professor Brian's behavior was no different from that of a hoodlum.
"I didn't do anything." Lu Zhou turned off the video and said nonchalantly, "He just figured it out."
If he couldn't figure it out, then perhaps his lifetime's achievements would end here.
However, if he figured it out and walked out of that dead end, his future academic career would still be promising.
Lu Zhou didn't explain to Assistant Zhao what he had figured out. Instead, he focused on the thesis in his hand.
It had been a month since the strong interaction Yang-Mills existence and mass gap was solved. Even though the academic community still didn't have a clear conclusion on his thesis, most of the well-known international theoretical physics research institutions were still carefully researching it. However, Lu Zhou didn't just sit around and do nothing over the past month.
He said that he would give everyone an answer by the end of the month.
He was in a rush at the end of last month, but he should be able to do it by the end of this month.
At least for now, it seemed like he was only one step away from completing it …
Time went from morning to dusk.
Lu Zhou put down the pen in his hand and gently stacked the stack of draft paper on his desk. He had a satisfied smile on his face.
My strong electric interaction theory …
I'm finally done!
After a busy day, Lu Zhou felt a little hungry. He put the draft paper aside and was about to go out and eat something.
Han Mengqi was holding a stack of freshly published computational materials science theses. She walked to Lu Zhou's desk and spoke with a smile on her face.
"Teacher, I've completed the task you gave me!"
Lu Zhou looked at the thesis in her hand and nodded. He said, "Okay, I'll leave it here."
Han Mengqi placed the thesis on the corner of the table. She suddenly noticed the dense writing on the draft paper and curiously asked, "What are you writing?"
"What are you writing?"
"Nothing." Lu Zhou pushed his chair away and stood up. He smiled and said, "I just made a simple summary of the work I did some time ago."
…
For the theoretical physics community, 2020 was definitely going to be an extremely turbulent year.
In less than a year, the general solution of the Yang-Mills equations and the Yang-Mills existence and mass gap were solved. The discovery of the quantum Yang-Mills field theory brought gauge field theory into a new era.
And that wasn't all.
Just when everyone thought that in less than a year, they had overdrawn at least the next ten years of their lives, another world-shocking research result came out of nowhere.
Three days after Professor Brian read the apology letter, Lu Zhou posted his second thesis on arXiv.
The Chinese title was only a few words, and the English title was only a few words.
Which was, "Electrostrong Interaction Theory"!
As soon as the thesis was posted on arXiv, it caused a sensation in the physics community.
Even though everyone had no doubt that Lu Zhou, who solved the Yang-Mills existence and mass gap, was the most promising person in the world to unify the strong interaction and electromagnetic force, physicists still didn't expect that Lu Zhou's joke on arXiv wasn't a joke.
In just a month and a half, he perfected his theory and achieved the unification of the strong interaction and electromagnetic force!
Just the amount of time he took to accomplish this feat was beyond the realm of genius …
After all, geniuses were still people.
Perhaps only a god could achieve such a feat …
So far, other than a few domestic research institutes, there weren't any well-known international research institutes that had publicly expressed their opinions on this newly published thesis. Even when asked by reporters, most people would avoid talking about it or pick some irrelevant questions to answer.
After all, this matter was too important, so important that even the world's top physicists had to treat it with 120% caution.
If this thesis was correct, it would completely change the face of physics for the next hundred years.
If it was wrong, and the academic community accepted it carelessly, then in the next decade or even decades, the future of theoretical physics would be bleak. There might even be no future at all …
