For scientists, if in doubt, we should explore to the end. If this conjecture can be proved, it may lead to a new field of mathematics, and it may also bring great progress to mankind. Accumulation, discovery, exploration, enterprising, endless, this is the great scientific spirit. We don't seem to see the practical use of Goldbach's conjecture, and it doesn't seem to bring us the revolutionary changes mentioned above in our daily life and technical application.

In fact, mathematics is first and foremost a basic subject and the cornerstone of various disciplines. In other words, although many disciplines have made brilliant achievements in various fields and made outstanding contributions to mankind. However, they are all based on mathematics. A mathematical theory, although it may be useless for the time being. However, it does not mean that it will be useless in the future. I believe Goldbach conjecture will play a very important role in the future of mankind.

Goldbach's Conjecture

Goldbach conjecture is a mathematical problem, which is called "one of the three major mathematical problems in the modern world". It was first proposed by Goldbach in 1742. After he brought it up, he could not prove it himself. So he wrote to Euler, the great mathematician at that time, and asked Euler to prove it. But Euler didn't prove that this problem always existed until his death.

Since then, many great mathematicians all over the world have spent their whole lives proving this mathematical problem. Although they have achieved some results, they have not been fully proved. The closest proof is China's great mathematician Chen Jingrun. He proved "1+2" in 1966, which is the highest achievement in proving Goldbach's conjecture problem at present. However, it failed to go any further and proved the final proposition "1+ 1".
