Chen Jingrun's Celebrity Story 1 Chen Jingrun's Story Chen Jingrun is one of the world famous analytic number theorists. In 1950s, he made important improvements on the previous results of Gauss circle lattice problem, spherical lattice problem, Tali problem and Hualin problem. After 1960s, he made extensive and in-depth research on screening methods and related important issues.
1966, Chen Jingrun, who lives in a six-square-meter cabin, borrowed a dim kerosene lamp, leaned against the bed board and consumed several sacks of draft paper with a pen. He actually conquered (1+2) in the world-famous mathematical puzzle "Goldbach conjecture", creating a distance from taking off the crown jewel of number theory (1+).
1) is only one step away from glory. He proved that "every big even number is the sum of the products of a prime number and no more than two prime numbers", which made him a world leader in Goldbach's conjecture research. This result is called "Chen Theorem" internationally and is widely quoted. This work also enabled him, Wang Yuan and Pan Chengdong to win the first prize of China Natural Science Award with 1978 * *. His achievements in studying Goldbach conjecture and other number theory problems are still far ahead in the world. World-class master of mathematics, American scholar.
Will once praised him like this: "Every job in Chen Jingrun seems to be walking on the top of the Himalayas."
Chen Jingrun's Celebrity Story 2 Chen Jingrun became an internationally renowned mathematician and was deeply respected by people. However, instead of being complacent, he attributed all the credit to the motherland and the people. In order to safeguard the interests of the motherland, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his personal fame and fortune.
1977 One day, Chen Jingrun received a letter from the president of the International Federation of Mathematicians, inviting him to attend the International Congress of Mathematicians. There are 3000 people present at this meeting, all of whom are world-famous mathematicians. Chen Jingrun is one of 10 mathematicians designated by the congress to give academic reports. This is a great honor for a mathematician and is of great benefit to enhancing Chen Jingrun's international reputation.
Chen Jingrun didn't make a good claim, but immediately reported to the party branch of the institute and asked the party for instructions. The Party branch reported this situation to the Academy of Sciences. The Party organization of the Academy of Sciences was cautious about this issue, because China's seat in the International Federation of Mathematicians had been occupied by Taiwan Province Province.
The leader of the hospital replied: "You are a mathematician, and the party organization respects your personal opinion. You can write back to him yourself. "
After careful consideration, Chen Jingrun finally decided to give up this rare opportunity. In his reply to the president of the International Federation of Mathematicians, he wrote: "First, China has always attached importance to developing academic exchanges and friendly relations with countries around the world. I personally thank the President of the International Federation of Mathematicians for his invitation. Second, there is only one China in the world, the only one that can represent the interests of the broad masses of people in China is People's Republic of China (PRC), and Taiwan Province Province is an inalienable part of People's Republic of China (PRC). I can't attend because Taiwan Province Province currently occupies the seat of the International Federation of Mathematicians in China. Third, if China has only one representative, I can consider attending this meeting. " In order to safeguard the dignity of the motherland, Chen Jingrun sacrificed his personal interests.
From 65438 to 0979, Chen Jingrun went to the United States for a short-term research visit at the invitation of Princeton Institute for Advanced Studies. The conditions at Princeton College are very good. In order to make full use of such good conditions, Chen Jingrun squeezed out all the time he could save, worked hard and didn't even go back to his place to eat lunch. Sometimes he goes out for a meeting and the hotel is noisy, so he hides in the bathroom to continue his research work. Because of his efforts, during his short five months in the United States, he not only attended meetings and lectures, but also finished the paper "The Minimum Prime Number in arithmetic progression", which pushed the minimum prime number from 80 to 16 at once. This research result was also the most advanced in the world at that time.
In a relatively developed country like the United States, Chen Jingrun still maintains a frugal style at home. He can get $ 20xx from the institute every month, which can be said to be quite rich. Every noon, he never goes to the institute canteen for dinner. It's exquisite, and he can enjoy it completely, but he always eats the dry food and fruit he brings. He was so frugal that he lived in the United States for five months. Excluding rent, utilities and $65,438+0,800, he only spent $700 on meals. When he came back, * * * saved 7500 dollars.
The money was not a small sum at that time. He could have bought some high-end home appliances from abroad like others. But he gave all his money to the country. What does he think?
In his own words: "Our country is not rich yet, so I can't just think about pleasure."
Chen Jingrun is such a very modest and upright person. Although he has made a name for himself, he is not complacent. He said: "I just climbed a hill on the road of science and haven't climbed the real peak yet." I have to keep working hard. "
Chen Jingrun's Celebrity Story 3 Chen Jingrun, a native of Minhou, Fujian, was a famous mathematician in modern China. New research achievements have been made in the integral point in a circle, the integral point in a sphere, the Willing problem, the three-dimensional divisor and so on, and his paper "The Minimum Prime Number in arithmetic progression" has reached a new level internationally. Especially in the study of "Goldbach conjecture", it is recognized as the jewel in the crown of mathematics. His paper on (1+2) simplified proof has caused a sensation in the mathematical circles at home and abroad and won honor for our country.
Chen Jingrun was born in the family of a small clerk. The father hoped that the birth of this child would bring "nourishing" days to his family, so he gave him a lucky name.
Chen Jingrun, a teenager, loves math, and her math scores are always among the best in her class. He is not talkative and sociable. He always feels ashamed in front of his neatly dressed and laughing classmates. Only when he is in class and doing his homework does he rank himself in front of dozens of classmates in the class, and only at this time will his classmates look at him with new eyes.
Once in a math class, the teacher told a story: 200 years ago, a German mathematician named Goldbach put forward a conjecture: any even number greater than 2 must be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers. For example, 4 = 2+2, 6 = 3+3, 8 = 3+5, ... Although Gorbachev himself verified many even numbers, they all proved to be true, but he himself could not prove them logically. He wrote to the famous mathematician Euler for advice. Euler spent many years trying to prove it to his death. Since then, this world problem has attracted thousands of mathematicians, but no one can always overcome it. Therefore, it is called the jewel in the crown of mathematics. After hearing this story, Goldbach's conjecture has been lingering in Chen Jingrun's mind. He often thinks: Who will get the pearl? China or Europe? China people should have solved this problem. He secretly made up his mind, and from then on he was more eager to learn mathematics, sometimes to the point of being infatuated.
One day, mother poured rice into the pot, added water for him to watch, and then went shopping.
Jingrun promised her mother without looking up, but she still read. His mind was completely immersed in his lessons, and he didn't smell the burnt rice. When my mother came back from the market, half a pot of rice had been burnt to black charcoal.
Chen Jingrun not only studies hard, but also uses his spare time to read extensively to enrich his knowledge. He became a famous reading fan in his class, and his classmates affectionately named him "Booker".
It is precisely because of Chen Jingrun's ambition to climb the peak of science and the spirit of hard study that his boyhood dream finally came true. Like a bright star, he rose to the sky of the kingdom of mathematics.
