In the end, his rationality won over his greed and Lu Zhou gave up on this unrealistic idea.
It was not a big deal for a first-year student to publish an SCI paper. Anyway, the mathematics SCI journals in China had a lot of bullsh * tting. As long as one's English was good, one could easily pass the paper.
This kind of bullsh * tting phenomenon caused someone to create a ranking list for the well-known bullsh * tting journals in China. The one at the top of the list, Applied Publication (AMC), was famous for bullsh * tting.
In just four short years, the University of Shanghai had published hundreds of mathematics theses on AMC. It was not a big deal for some spammers to publish more than 20 theses a year!
In order to ensure the academic quality of the theses, the old journals would strictly limit the number of theses published to less than one hundred. However, this "giant journal" was very naughty. They published more than a thousand theses a year. Coupled with the cross-referencing phenomenon, the impact factor skyrocketed! Due to a large number of fake reviews, an editor published more than a hundred theses!
Lu Zhou did not have the confidence to pass other SCI journals, but AMC …
You could say that he was confident or arrogant.
In short, Lu Zhou felt that it was not a big problem.
However, publishing Zhou's conjecture proof on SCI was a big problem. It was not a problem of whether or not he could pass it. He could definitely pass it, but the key was whether or not he could handle it.
In the end, although Lu Zhou still chose the third mission, he did not plan on using Zhou's conjecture proof. He wanted to write a bullsh * t thesis to pass the mission.
His understanding of advanced mathematics and mathematical analysis was not inferior to a graduate student's. Coupled with his CET-4 English, he only needed a few technical terms to write an English thesis. These could all be solved by looking up the dictionary.
As for the other two missions, he did not have the connections for the first one and he did not have a high EQ.
As for the second one, he did not have a physics class in his first year. He was afraid that the system would only give him high school physics exercises. Who knew how difficult it would be. Moreover, the physics level was not that attractive to him. The name sounded like it would only be used in the later stages of his life. It would not be too late to practice it when he needed it.
After choosing the mission, Lu Zhou patted the grass off his butt, stood up, and hummed a song as he walked towards the dormitory.
After being delayed outside for so long, Liu Rui might lose his mind if he didn't return.
This kid was very strange. Although he was usually very generous, when it came to learning, he was so narrow-minded that it made people speechless. They could chase you down two streets just by looking at your notes, and they could roll their eyes at you a dozen times just by asking you a question. In his eyes, it was as if the whole world was filled with competitors, and what he pursued was probably not academic heights, but the number one position in the eyes of his teachers and classmates, or the position of a "top student".
Could this kind of person be considered a top student?
Lu Zhou didn't think so.
In the eyes of a true genius, all mortals are trash. So what if I show you my notes? Do you know Zhou's conjecture? You wouldn't understand even if it was placed in front of you!
In Lu Zhou's mind, there was only one person who met the requirements of a top student.
Yeah, that's right.
Without a doubt, he was talking about himself.
…
When he opened the dormitory door, it was exactly ten o 'clock.
Liu Rui was holding an exercise book, and the other two people were not in the dormitory. They were probably playing cards next door. Shi Shang was the type of person who usually listened to lectures and did not have much time to study at the end of the semester. As for Huang Guangming, he was probably the legendary genius. He did not usually listen to lectures and would cram before exams, but his grades were always ridiculously high.
Lu Zhou threw his backpack on the table and reached into the drawer to find his shower card.
Liu Rui put down the exercise book in his hand and glanced at Lu Zhou.
"Zhou, you're working so hard?"
"I have to work hard. I haven't touched a book for almost half a semester. If I don't work hard, it will be too late." Lu Zhou threw the towel on his shoulder and stood up from the chair.
When Liu Rui saw that Lu Zhou was about to take a shower, he suddenly said, "I have a problem that I can't solve. Can you help me?"
Oh, that's strange.
There's a problem that you can't solve?
"Let me have a look."
Lu Zhou reached out his hand. Liu Rui pushed his glasses and handed over the exercise book. He pointed at the circled problem and said, "This is it."
"Points problem? This shouldn't be difficult … "Lu Zhou glanced at the problem. He was surprised that it was a problem that he had never seen before. Lu Zhou was interested and he was not in a hurry to take a shower. He took the exercise book and sat back on the chair. He picked up a pen and began to write on the draft paper.
If it was before, Liu Rui would not be able to solve a problem that was difficult for him. However, he did not know why, but at this moment, he did not think that it was "impossible".
When Liu Rui saw Lu Zhou calculate for a while, he was relieved. He secretly despised Lu Zhou for being a bad student. No matter how much he pretends, he's still a bad student.
It was true that he could not solve this problem. However, there was a reference answer and there was a detailed solution. The reason why he asked Lu Zhou this question was not because he wanted to learn, but because he wanted to "spy on the enemy".
Even if he wanted to ask a mathematics question, he would not ask a bad student like Lu Zhou.
Liu Rui thought about this and said, "How about you copy the problem? I'll think about the next problem first? "
What he meant was, since you don't know how to write, I won't waste your time.
However, Lu Zhou's reaction was beyond Liu Rui's expectations.
"… No need, I solved it."
Solved, solved it?!
Liu Rui's eyes widened. He was so surprised that his eyeballs almost popped out.
"Yeah, you heard me right." Lu Zhou spun the pen in his hand and explained to the formula on the draft paper, "It's a typical double integral problem. The first step is to convert the rectangular coordinates to polar coordinates. Because of the interval symmetry, this part of the formula can be simplified to cotx2 …
"Then turn it into cscx2 points! Then substitute it into the original function! " Liu Rui's pupils slightly contracted. He keenly saw through the core idea of this solution. The next step was like pushing a boat with the current, he just had to keep calculating. There was no difficulty at all.
Dammit, why didn't I think of this …
"Bingo! Correct. "Lu Zhou smiled and nodded. He thought that Liu Rui was worth teaching.
"Thanks … Lend me the draft paper, I'll take it and study it."
"Take it, you're welcome!" Lu Zhou waved his hand generously. He then stood up and walked to the bathroom.
Liu Rui returned to his seat with Lu Zhou's draft paper. He pushed up his glasses and stared at the question. His eyebrows slightly furrowed as he began to think.
Although the solution was novel, the solution process was clearly written. The knowledge involved was not beyond the scope of the syllabus. Even without Lu Zhou's explanation, he could easily understand it.
But what he didn't understand was, how did Lu Zhou come up with this?
And in such a short amount of time …
Did he solve this type of problem before?
Liu Rui thought about it and it seemed to be the only possibility. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine that a jerk who worked all day long could crush him, the genius of the class, in terms of problem solving speed.
Liu Rui flipped to the back of the exercise book and looked at the solution. He was stunned as he muttered to himself.
"Impossible …"
The answer was completely correct … but that was not the point.
The point was that Lu Zhou's solution was even simpler than the standard solution! The answer did not take into account the unconventional solution of converting rectangular coordinates into polar coordinates. Instead, it directly applied the formula to split the integral twice, which caused the calculation to look abnormally large.
And this was one of the solutions he considered …
How is this possible!
Liu Rui bit his lips.
