Chapter 273 - 201: Schrodinger’s Scholar_l



Forty-five minutes earlier, just as Harrison Clark drove out of Chesterton Apartment, Rainer and eleven other Fields Medalists had finally completed their intense validation work.

Subsequently, these twelve people co-authored and published an article.

The article was published on major journals such as SCN and the official website of the Fields Medal.

The content of the article was fairly simple.

Yesterday, just two hours after Harrison Clark published The Madman’s Conjectures Collection, Rainer did something.

He used his personal connections and academic status to contact eleven other Fields Medalists, inviting them to participate in a validation project with him.

At first, these people refused, but upon hearing the content of the project and Rainer’s claim that he had preliminarily completed the validation of the Hodge conjecture section, and came to the astonishing conclusion that if all the data in this validation project were accurate, human mathematics would advance by at least twenty years, they couldn’t sit still.

At this level of scholarship, the pursuit is not only for a place in history, but also for self-perfection.

The project was launched.

Twelve Fields Medalists and their respective research groups, ranging from dozens to hundreds of people, devoted themselves to the project.

Twelve research institutions representing the pinnacle of contemporary mathematics at the same time joined the project, divided into two groups, working simultaneously to validate the parts advanced by Harrison Clark in the six major puzzles: P vs NP problem, Navier-Stokes equations, Yang-Mills existence and mass gap, Riemann hypothesis, Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, and Hodge conjecture.

After nearly forty hours, the validation was completed, and the conclusions were drawn.

All the calculations in the book were completely correct.

The veil of mystery surrounding the six major puzzles was torn open further.

In an ecstatic state, they wrote their conclusions into the article and attached their calculation processes as appendices.

Originally, The Madman’s Conjectures Collection was already at the center of attention. With the publication of this article, the atmosphere was pushed to its peak in an instant.

The world was shocked.

What? The mathematical parts were all correct?

Since all the math-related parts of The Madman’s Conjectures Collection were right, the other parts didn’t seem to be groundless nonsense, right?

The previously fiercely debated academic community began to waver.

Even the most staunch critics started to have a huge question mark in their heads.

Were these unverifiable conclusions, which also could not produce experimental data, all true?

Mathematics and physics have many similarities, but there is one fundamental difference.

It has been said that mathematicians only need a pen and a notebook, worth two dollars, to do research.

But physicists need a particle collider the size of a mountain, worth twenty billion dollars, to do research.

Of course, this is an exaggeration, but to some extent, it is also true.

To verify new results in mathematical fields, one usually needs only computational power.

Physics, on the other hand, requires experiments.

Given the current state of technology, it would take at least ten years for people to verify all of Harrison Clark’s achievements in physics mentioned in The Madman’s Conjectures Collection.

However, it only took one day for twelve top teams to verify the math-related aspects at full force.

This half of the substantiated conclusions concerning mathematics now forced people to re-examine the other half of the conclusions related to physics, which could not be falsified or proven true in the short term.

However, a terrifying thought struck the minds of all scholars who paid attention to this matter: if every single thing Harrison Clark wrote was true, then his book alone would be enough to pull human science and technology forward for at least thirty years.

This is not a concept that can be seen in the short term, but from a historical perspective, this result is inevitable.

Public opinion went crazy.

The people’s hearts boiled over.

As a result, the online world turned into the chaos that Harrison Clark was seeing on his phone at the moment.

When the discovery of gravitational waves took place, social networks were flooded with the news.

Now, this event was probably on the same level as if gravitational waves had turned into a horse, participating in a costume challenge.”

As he read the news, Harrison Clark’s face wore a contented smile.

He knew he was famous, but he didn’t care too much.

Anyway, he was famous enough and didn’t mind a little more attention.

And while ordinary people on the internet are now clamoring for things like witnessing a god, this kind of heat would only last a few days.

There is a barrier between the world of academia and the world of ordinary people that cannot be overcome. His life won’t change much, and the impact might not even be as great as writing a hit song.

Scientists don’t hype, so most scientists are not as famous as singers or actors. This is reality, but scientists don’t care.

Moreover, his major achievements in physics are still controversial, and there will always be ignorant and fearless critics trying to pull him down from his pedestal.

Having thrown out so many bold assumptions, if any of them are proven to be incorrect, those who idolize him now would turn on him and accuse him of grandstanding.

Harrison Clark won’t become a god overnight unless all of his conclusions are verified and become indisputable truths.

Only then would he undoubtedly become the foremost scientist of the modern era, but that’s still in the future, and it’s uncertain when it will happen.

Although this is bound to happen, Harrison Clark has no expectations for it.

He can’t predict how the future will unfold.

While he can vaguely see the next timeline in the future, he certainly cannot understand the timeline after that, let alone the one after that.

Concerning his achievements, he is like a scholar trapped in Schrodinger’s box.

He knows for sure that he is alive.

But the people outside the box are still nervously awaiting the opening of the lid.

As Harrison Clark was kicking back in his study, lost in thought, Chris Owen in the next room was already being overwhelmed by the vast amount of sudden information.

As a leader in the domestic high-tech industry, Chris Owen had always attached great importance to the collection of academic trends.

Truly high-tech enterprises cannot be eliminated by the times; they must keep up with industry trends and respond promptly.For example, if a certain scientist or university research team makes a breakthrough, if you are slow to act and someone else beats you to obtaining the patent for the results, you are done for.

Or, if a laboratory starts a new project that could cause a major change in the industry if successful, you have to rush and invest early, sign sponsorship agreements with them to avoid being locked out of intellectual property rights.

For companies worth over ten billion, if you want to stay competitive, you must always be one step ahead, and invest in advance.

Even if you know that a lot of money will definitely be wasted, you can’t afford not to invest. You just have to manage the risks well.

Chris Owen knows these tricks well, which is why he thought Harrison Clark encountered an academic scammer before.

His friend who was fooled…

Well, it’s some kind of a fabricated friendship.

Who hasn’t been young?

After learning from his mistakes, Chris Owen put a lot of resources into building an intelligence network.

Even though his intelligence network may not be at the same level as world-class multinational enterprises, it’s top-notch in his country.

Now, Whale Group’s intelligence network has received this significant news first-hand and reported it to Chris Owen.

“Mr. Owen, should we contact Dr. Ryan Lai’s approved teacher, Mr. Harrison Clark? We have consulted with visiting professors from Princeton, MIT, and the University of London who unanimously expressed that if all of Harrison Clark’s academic works are true and he personally oversees the experiment to reproduce the conclusion, he would be a combination of the modern-day Einstein and Archimedes…”

Staring at the close-up photos displayed on his video conference call.

Chris Owen: ??????

He was puzzled.

Even though Chris Owen had seen it all in the business world for decades, he couldn’t figure it out.

“Mr. Owen? What’s wrong, Mr. Owen?”

Chris Owen took a deep breath, “Nothing, let me just confirm one last time, the Harrison Clark you are talking about, is he the same Harrison Clark from Summit Ventures in Oxfordshire?”

“Yes, he and Dr. Ryan Lai met at a Grammy dinner party in Beverly Hills. Dr. Lai really enjoys music composition and is a loyal fan of Harrison Clark.”

“Alright, I understand, but you don’t have to worry about that. I have a plan.”

“But many domestic and foreign companies are already itching to move. Shouldn’t we, who are from the same hometown, seize the opportunity to get ahead of him? If someone else beats us to it, it wouldn’t be good for the company, right?”

His subordinates were puzzled.

Chris Owen smiled confidently, “Everyone relax, I have a plan. Have the finance department immediately conduct an asset assessment! Sell off all of the company’s current investment structures! Gather as much capital as possible! Cancel my trip to Europe and have Vice President Tang take my place!”

“Ah! Mr. Owen, you are…”

Chris Owen smiled mysteriously, his face shining with an unpredictable light of wisdom.

“Everything is under control.”

“Huh?”

“Right now, Harrison Clark is in my study! Our Whale Group is about to undergo an unprecedented major transformation! Our opportunity has come, everyone!”

On the other side of the conference call, a series of astonished gasps filled the air.

Oh my!

No wonder he’s Mr. Owen!

What an incredible intelligence!

We kneel.

“Mr. Owen, you are brilliant!”

“Mr. Owen, I really respect you, you are too … too amazing!”

Whale Group is not a company where flattery is prevalent; everyone focuses on getting things done and talking less nonsense.

However, Chris Owen’s foresight and quick action were simply mind-blowing this time.

While other competitors were still trying to figure out how to contact Harrison Clark, our Mr. Owen had already invited him to his study for cooperation talks. How could one not admire such foresight?

It’s like Zhuge Liang reincarnated; one has to admit defeat and praise him without feeling guilty.

Chris Owen smiled slightly, “Less talking, more working, get to it.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Alright, Mr. Owen!”

After hanging up the call, Chris Owen took about thirty seconds to calm his excited emotions and regain his composure.

By the time he returned to the study door, Harrison Clark had just hung up his phone with Rainer.

He scolded Rainer over the phone.

“You can forget it; stop flattering me already. Hurry up and come to Oxfordshire. What I have here is more important. Don’t bother with those people trying to contact me through you. Can’t they find my company? You’re already a mature academic person, you should learn to prioritize, so hurry up.” Of course, Harrison Clark wasn’t in a good mood.

Although Rainer meant well and had done a good thing.

But can’t you just flatter me some other time?

Why did you have to do it today and stand me up?

What if I let Chris Owen slip away? It would be a complete loss.

Chris Owen took three more deep breaths outside the door, striving to make his mindset more stable and dignified.

He pushed the study door open, and stepped in.

Mr. Owen really tried.

However, the thought of this young man being the modern-day Einstein and Archimedes still left him unsettled.

“Harrison, brother, I’m so sorry to have kept you waiting. This is my treasured Wuyi Big Red Robe mother tree tea. There’s one less piece every time you drink it, come on, have a taste.”

His face bore a bright smile like a blossoming flower, and he quickly bumped Mr. Owen’s rank down to a nephew.

His most treasured tea was also brought out as well..
