Chapter 190 Application for co-election of Mathematics Fellows

After returning to Zhonghu University, Ye Fei first returned to the office.

Ye Fei hasn't returned to Zhonghu University for a long time. It's been half a year since he left.

Ye Feixin said: "I regard all full-time professors as part-timers, and there is no one left."

Of course, Ye Fei also knew that the school didn't care at all if he didn't work full time, as long as he stayed at Zhonghu University.

Besides, many university teachers fly around the world all year round, and it is common for them to not be able to stay in school for more than a few days a year.

Therefore, Ye Fei's phenomenon is not an isolated case, but a common phenomenon.

After entering the office, Tan Lingling was talking on the phone with someone when she saw Ye Fei walking into the office, with a flash of surprise in her eyes.

Tan Lingling said a few words to the phone, then hung up and said with a smile: "You rare visitor, why are you back today?"

"I have something to do back at school." Ye Fei chuckled.

Tan Lingling smiled and said: "That's right. If nothing happens, you won't go back to school."

Tan Lingling continued: "I have good news for you. My sister's title is about to be promoted."

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded: "Good thing, when will it be promoted?"

"next year!"

After Ye Fei and Tan Lingling chatted for a while, they went to the office of the dean of the School of Mathematics.

Ye Fei knocked on the door and went in. When the dean saw Ye Fei walking in, he was surprised, then he greeted him with a smile and asked, "Why are you back?"

Ye Fei used to be the star of the school, and even more so now.

Ye Fei has not only made great achievements in mathematics, but also in the fields of computers and materials.

Naturally, the school likes people who have developed well in so many fields.

Ye Fei sat down and said, "Dean, I'm here to apply for co-election as an academician."

"Academician co-optation?" The dean said in surprise: "Yes, next year is the academician co-optation year, but aren't you a third-level professor? It doesn't seem to be in compliance with the rules!"

"Of course, if you want to participate in the co-election of academicians, there is no way."

"As long as you are quickly promoted to a second-level professor, you can apply for co-election as an academician."

Ye Feidao: "I asked someone before I came here, and that person said the same thing."

The dean smiled and said: "Actually, if you don't tell me, the school will help you get promoted to a second-level professor soon this year."

With Ye Fei's performance today, it is natural for him to be promoted to a second-level professor.

"It just so happens that you are making this request now, so let's take a fast track and try to upgrade the professional title in the next few days."

"Okay!" Ye Fei nodded.

The dean said: "You wait in the school for a few days. In the meantime, the school will prepare materials for you. Once your professional title is upgraded, it will help you apply for the election of academician."

"Okay." Ye Fei nodded.

The dean looked at Ye Fei expectantly and asked, "What professional title are you going to apply for?"

Ye Feike has applied for quite a few academicians, including academician in mathematics, academician in computer science and academician in materials science.

Mathematics and computer science can be applied for membership of the Academy of Sciences, and materials can be applied for membership of the Academy of Engineering.

"Mathematician!"

The dean smiled and said: "Okay, academician of mathematics is great. Academician of mathematics has the highest status among all academicians, so you should apply for academician of mathematics."

As the dean of the School of Mathematics at Zhonghu University, he naturally hopes that Ye Fei will apply for a bachelor's degree in mathematics.

This is good for Ye Fei and also good for the School of Mathematics.

"But you have to be mentally prepared. It is difficult to be a mathematician. The evaluation standards for mathematics are the highest among all academicians."

"You may not be co-opted next year."

"I know!" Ye Fei nodded and said, "Before I came here, someone had already told me about this and asked me to make greater achievements in mathematics, otherwise I would have to wait for the co-optation of academicians in three years.

"

"He said that if I am not elected next year, I should have experience in being co-opted as an academician!"

"That's what I think too. Even if you don't get co-opted, it doesn't matter. Just treat it as an experience."

"At any rate, we have also experienced the co-optation of academicians. With this experience, maybe we can be co-opted next time!"

The dean chuckled and said: "What you are saying is that you have this very good mentality. You are still young. Even if you are not elected next year, you will still be elected the year after that. If you are not elected the year after that, you will still be able to be elected in a few years.

Continue to co-opt."

"Based on your age, you can choose more than a dozen times."

Academicians cannot be co-opted if they are over 65 years old. Ye Fei is only 27 years old now, and there are still 38 years left before he turns 65.

Academician co-election is held every two years, and Ye Fei can participate 19 times.

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded.

After leaving the dean's office, Ye Fei returned to the number theory group office.

People in the number theory group were very surprised to see Ye Fei.

They rarely see Ye Fei in school now, and if they can see Ye Fei in school, they feel like they have won a big prize.

Han Dong smiled and said, "Why are you back?"

"I have something to do when I come back." Ye Fei smiled.

Immediately, Ye Fei looked at everyone and said: "Our research progress is pretty good. One-fifth of the research has been completed now. According to this progress, the proof can be completed in April next year."

"However, I still have to speed up the research progress."

"Next, I will study with you for eight hours a day."

Ye Fei works twelve hours a day. Before, he would spend four hours a day studying mathematics and eight hours a day studying materials.

But now, Ye Fei is running for mathematics academician.

He needs to prove Hilbert's 12th problem as soon as possible, and then find a mathematical problem that can increase the success rate of being elected as a mathematician.

Therefore, Ye Fei now has to adjust his research time, studying mathematics for eight hours a day and studying materials for four hours.

Surprise showed on everyone's faces.

With the addition of Ye Fei, the speed of mathematical proofs will be much faster.

They also hope to win the prize by passing Hilbert's 12th question!

Ye Fei looked at Lin Yi and Wang Yuan and said, "You have been studying well recently. You can take over some research projects."

There was a smile on the two people's faces. After joining the number theory group, they found that what they had learned before was different from that of the number theory group.

It's like learning the pinyin alphabet in the first grade of elementary school, while the content of the number theory group is college-level mathematics.

The gap is so big!

This short half year of study has allowed them to improve a lot.

From being ignorant to being able to understand the ideas for solving problems.

They feel that if they are allowed to take the postgraduate entrance examination now, they can get perfect scores in mathematics.

Ye Feidao: "Han Dong, you can assign some not difficult tasks to the two of them and let them work together. The others should not help them."

Han Dong looked at Ye Fei speechlessly, they are not my students, they are your students.

Shouldn't it be you, the teacher, who does this?

Han Dong saw that Ye Fei didn't seem to think that he was their teacher. Han Dong nodded helplessly and said: "Okay, I understand."

Ye Feidao: "Keep working!"

In the next few days, Ye Fei stayed at Zhonghu University and worked with people from the number theory group every day.

December 25, 2028!

Since the school was on a fast track, Ye Fei was promoted to a second-level professor in just ten days.

The school then reported Ye Fei's information to the Xia Academy of Sciences.

On January 1, 2029, apply for the co-election of second-level professor Professor Ye Fei as an academician of the Department of Mathematical Physics.

In the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences, it is divided into six departments.

They are the Department of Mathematical Physics, the Department of Chemistry, the Department of Life Sciences and Medicine, the Department of Earth Sciences, the Department of Information Technology and Science, and the Department of Technology and Science.

There are a total of 1,058 academicians in the Xia Guo Academy of Sciences.

Among them, the Department of Mathematical Physics has the largest number of academicians, accounting for 19%.

The Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine and the Faculty of Technical Sciences both reached 18%.

The Department of Earth Sciences is 17%, the Department of Chemistry is 16%, and the Department of Information Technology and Science is 12%.

After that, the school used all resources to prepare for Ye Fei to be co-opted as an academician.
