"Little weirdo" has a good habit, that is, he loves reading books, and there are things in them that fascinate him. His parents tried their best to meet his requirements and kept buying books for him, so he put piles of various books on his bedside and desk. When brothers and sisters are together, or when classmates and friends of brothers and sisters come to play, he always hides in his room to read books, and sometimes forcibly pulls him to play together. He is also holding a book and coping with it. Soon he slipped away again, hiding in the corner where others could not find him, or under the table, or in the bushes, even if it was dirty and bitten by flies and mosquitoes, he didn't care. Everyone nicknamed him "nerd" again.
Xiao Jingrun is not particular about food and clothing. His brother changed his clothes. He always takes a long time to come to dinner, and he is always the first to throw the bowl and run away. Sometimes before mom's fried eggs are served, he will wipe his mouth and read a book. Tell him to come back and eat again, and no matter how to persuade him, he is indifferent. Over time, among his brothers and sisters, he lost weight. So my mother pays special attention to calling him out for dinner after dinner, or calling him first and dragging him to the table. He eats like a troublesome job. After eating in a hurry, he pushed his rice bowl and bent down to read. He didn't realize that time is life at that time, but in his mind, time is knowledge, and reading is more delicious than eating. His mother understood his feelings very well and never blamed him. She just kindly stood by and reminded him: "Xiaosanzi, eat slowly and don't be stubborn!" " Eat more! Health is more important! "
1in the spring of 944, Chen Jingrun graduated from primary school and entered the newly established Sanyuan County Junior High School. The school is located in a ruined temple on the mountain. The conditions are very poor. It is raining inside and outside the classroom.
At school, Chen Jingrun was young and sickly, and his classmates often bullied him. Chen Jingrun was bullied and nobody listened to his grievances, so he had to hold it in his heart. He feels lonely at home and at school. At this time, he fell in love with mathematics and felt that he was full of melancholy and could be relieved in the process of mathematical calculus. In middle school, Chen Jingrun became more introverted.
Fortunately for Chen Jingrun, he was taught by several knowledgeable teachers in this remote mountain school. In order to avoid the disaster of war, these teachers moved from enemy-occupied areas to university professors or lecturers in Sanyuan. Chen Jingrun's fighting spirit touched these teachers, and they liked this diligent student very much. These teachers also won the respect of Chen Jingrun with their rich knowledge. Under the influence of his teacher, Chen Jingrun became more fascinated with mathematics, so that calculating mathematical problems became the greatest pleasure in his life. Chen Jingrun later recalled: "These teachers cultivated my interest in learning mathematics and helped me to lay a solid foundation in mathematics. The reason why I was able to make achievements in later mathematics, tracing back to the source, should be said to depend on my study and life at this stage. "
After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, the Chen Jingrun family returned to Fuzhou. His mother collapsed from overwork and died soon. In the past, although Chen Jingrun lacked maternal love, she was still cared for by her mother. Now that he has lost his mother forever, he is very sad.
65438-0947, Chen Jingrun was admitted to Huaying Middle School in Fujian to attend high school. He was lucky that he met Mr. Shen Yuan, a math teacher in this school that he will never forget. Teacher Shen speaks very well in class, which is simple and interesting. After listening to Mr. Shen's class, Chen Jingrun felt that his eyes were wide open. He first heard that mathematics is divided into two parts: pure mathematics and applied mathematics. Teacher Shen told the students that pure mathematics is to study the relationship and spatial form between numbers. When studying the relationship between numbers, an important branch of discussing the properties of integers is number theory. Fermat,17th century great French mathematician, one of the founders of western number theory. Ancient mathematicians in China also made outstanding contributions to number theory. Zhou Pi Shu Jing is the oldest classic mathematical work. There is also a book "The Art of War", in which there is a remainder theorem pioneered by China people. Han Xin, a great strategist, used it to point soldiers, and later spread it to the west. It was named "Sun Tzu Theorem", which is a famous theorem in number theory and played an important role in the study of modern number theory. The π density calculated by Zu Chongzhi is also earlier than that calculated by Western Europe 1000 years. /kloc-The second half of the third century is the peak of the development of ancient mathematics in China. Teacher Shen encourages students to study math well and make more contributions to the math cause of the motherland in the future.
One day, Mr. Shen Yuan told the students a story about a famous problem in number theory. At that time, Peter the Great of Russia established the Petersburg Academy of Sciences. In order to make Russia strong in science, a large number of great European scientists were employed, including the great Italian mathematician Euler and a German mathematician named Goldbach. 1742, Goldbach found that every even number greater than or equal to four can be written as the sum of two prime numbers. He verified many even numbers, all of which proved that his point of view was correct, but he could not prove it mathematically, so he wrote to Euler, a famous mathematician, asking him to help him prove it. Later, Euler wrote in a reply to Goldbach: "I think this is a definite theorem, although I can't prove it yet." Until his death, Euler failed to prove Goldbach's conjecture. Since then, Goldbach conjecture has become a recognized mathematical problem. It attracted the attention of many famous mathematicians. For more than 200 years, mathematicians have tried to prove this conjecture, but no one succeeded.
After the story was finished, Mr. Shen Yuan stared at the students and seriously emphasized: "The queen of natural science is mathematics, the crown of mathematics is number theory, and Goldbach conjecture is the pearl in the crown."
The students opened their eyes in surprise.
Soon, Mr. Shen Yuan was transferred to Tsinghua University, but Chen Jingrun firmly remembered Mr. Shen Yuan and his Goldbach conjecture.
Huaying middle school teachers assign a lot of homework, sometimes giving students dozens of exercises at a time for them to choose from. Chen Jingrun always finishes all the exercises. Chen Jingrun's memory is hard to practice. He is always familiar with many concepts, formulas, theorems and laws of numbers, rationality and culture.
Chen Jingrun is silent all day, but he is a man of his own mind. He believes that if you want to climb the peak of science, you should not just run behind the teacher, but think independently. Chen Jingrun studies hard, but he doesn't pay much attention to his academic performance. He often goes to the school library, where he reads many books about mathematics and physics, such as calculus, Duff physics, introduction to higher algebra and so on. During this period of further study, Chen Jingrun established his confidence and courage to succeed.
After graduation, Chen Jingrun stayed in the reference room of the Mathematics Department of Xiamen University. Although he is indifferent to the outside world and pays no attention to his daily life, there are many young people's lofty aspirations. He studied Hua's masterpieces "Theory of Prime Numbers" and "Guidance of Number Theory" assiduously. He has no day and night, no spring and autumn, and he doesn't know what to complain about, what is happiness, what is success and what is failure. With the spirit of dripping water wears away the stone and extraordinary tenacity, he finally wrote a paper on altruism and handed it to Hua. After careful review, China handed it over to the number theory group for repeated review to confirm that Chen Jingrun's ideas and results were correct. Hua said to his disciples with emotion, "You stay with me. It is a young man I have never met who has improved my work."
1In August, 956, the "National Mathematics Paper Report Conference" was held in Beijing. At the recommendation of China, Chen Jingrun attended the meeting and read his paper at the meeting. When reporting on this congress, People's Daily pointed out in particular: "Chen Jingrun, who graduated from university for only three years, spent two years reading most of Hua's works in his spare time. His thesis "The Problem of the Other" has developed in the research achievements in China.
Hua, who got rid of poverty by self-study, was fortunate to be recommended and supported by famous teachers and Bole, and became a master of mathematics in China. He pushed others, fully sponsored, transferred Chen Jingrun to Beijing, and entered the Institute of Mathematics of China Academy of Sciences, the highest research institution in China, which opened the way for him to climb the scientific peak.
1966 In the spring, 33-year-old Chen Jingrun turned a shining page in the history of mathematics-finally solved the "1+2" in the world-famous mathematical puzzle Goldbach conjecture, which shocked the international mathematical community. 1973, he published a famous paper on "H2" in China Science, which proved Badbach's conjecture and created a brilliance just one step away from picking the jewel in the crown of mathematics (1+ 1). Aroused strong repercussions in the international arena.
