Chapter 4 Planning for the Future
In a short period of time, Xu Chuan had already re-planned the future of this life in his mind.
There is no doubt that physics is his root, but this does not prevent him from focusing his studies on mathematics throughout his life.
What makes him hesitate is whether he should continue to study abroad in this life.
Having stayed at Princeton for more than ten years, Xu Chuan is very aware of Princeton's strong mathematical capabilities. It is the world's top mathematics campus.
Compared with the physics he studied in his previous life, mathematics is the root of Princeton.
If you want to study mathematics in depth, Princeton is the best choice. There are many Fields Medal winners teaching there all year round, and you can have an in-depth understanding of most mathematics subjects.
But what Xu Chuan hesitated about was that Princeton was in that country, the country that had blocked him for twenty years and even finally sent him ‘home’.
Once you go out, it's uncertain whether you can come back.
As for not going out and simply staying in China, to be honest, with his current mathematics ability, he is enough to teach in any university in China, and he will not be able to learn too much knowledge.
Compared with the other party in basic science, it has to be admitted that his motherland is still far behind, whether it was twenty years ago today or twenty years in the future.
"Forget it, there must be a way to reach the mountain. Let's talk about it then."
Shaking his head, Xu Chuan threw away the entanglements in his mind.
If it is really necessary to go out to study in the future, go out purely as a student learning knowledge. Don't participate in research applications involving nuclear energy physics or the like. If you don't show too many achievements, you may not be noticed.
For him, even if he encountered something like that in his previous life, it was still inevitable to go abroad in this life, at least to Europe.
Many of his research theories in his previous life were based on the European Large Strong Particle Collider.
Although these things are all in his mind now and he can publish them directly, it is impossible to do it. After all, he doesn't even have experimental data now.
It is a genius to be able to find clues and discoveries from experimental data and prove the data and theories.
But if you can get data theory without experimental data, many people will definitely want to send you to the operating table.
Of course, if he really doesn't want to go abroad, Xu Chuan can also choose to build a large strong particle collider by himself or let the country help him.
But the construction cost of this thing is too high, starting from tens of billions of meters gold level, and the construction time is too long, measured in years.
If he builds it himself, money is not a problem. The materials he researched in his previous life can be redeveloped and used in exchange for money. But technology is the key, and even one country may not be able to handle the complexity of this thing.
The Large Strong Particle Collider at the European Atomic Energy Laboratory can be said to have been built with the combined efforts of almost all the world.
If he wants the country to help build one, he has to achieve enough results. Not to mention becoming a scholar at the level of Tianting, but at least becoming the most powerful voice in the field of high-energy physics in China.
In the quiet classroom, everyone lowered their heads and worked on their test papers. No one was flipping through books to cheat, and no one was talking or talking.
Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School is one of the four famous schools in Xingcheng. Every year, at least double digits of Qingbei students go out from here, and there are countless students from colleges and universities such as 985 and 211.
Students who can get into this school don't say how smart they are, but they must work hard.
At least in class 1201, everyone knows what to do and when.
Most of the time, atmosphere is a very important thing. In such a class, even if you are a person who doesn't like learning at first, you will gradually learn to follow.
For Xu Chuan, the classmates around him brought him not only the gradual resurgence of the deeply buried memories in his mind, but also a younger mentality and vitality.
At this moment, the body and mind that was nearly forty years old before rebirth seemed to have returned to the time when I was seventeen years old.
The white test papers on the table brought a smile to Xu Chuan's face. He hadn't seen these things for a long time.
"Under a small balloon made of rubber film filled with air, there is a small metal block hanging. When you put them somewhere in the water, they can just float. If you pull them down slightly and let go, the metal block and Balloon will()"
"A. Stay still and don't understand. B. Move upward and then return to the original position. C. Accelerate downward and sink to the bottom. D. Move upward and finally float."
"Old Tang himself came up with this topic."
A multiple-choice question came into Xu Chuan's eyes. He smiled, and then wrote the letter 'C' in the brackets without hesitation.
This question is actually very simple, but there is a small trap in it. Many people may not be able to change their mind and choose B or D for a while.
What it actually tests is not gravity, but the effect of water on the balloon.
For a balloon floating in water, the deeper the water, the greater the pressure. The balloon is compressed less, and the buoyancy force decreases, which is less than the gravity it exerts, resulting in a downward resultant force, so it will accelerate sinking instead. It floats upwards as most people imagine.
In his previous life, Old Tang liked to do this kind of trick. He always came up with his own questions for all school tests, quizzes, and basic tests.
Strictly speaking, the questions are not difficult, but there are some traps in each question.
If you just glance at it and make a judgment, it is easy to make mistakes, but as long as you are a little careful, you can react.
However, it is precisely because of these questions that he greatly exercised his judgment ability in the initial stage of learning physics and cultivated his careful habits, laying the solid foundation for him to reach the pinnacle of physics in the future.
There are not many questions in a test paper, including six single-choice questions, four multiple-choice questions, three fill-in-the-blank questions, and two proof questions. It has fewer questions than a final exam, but it is more difficult.
After all, it is a basic test and cannot take up time from other classes.
Old Tang was very confident. He knew the abilities of all the students in Class 1201, and most of them could complete this set of questions within forty-five minutes. However, the results depended on their level of care.
It was naturally impossible for Xu Chuan to spend the entire class on this kind of question. In less than fifteen minutes, he had already solved it.
For more than half an hour, he was immersed in books. Twenty years later, except for mathematics and physics, he had forgotten almost everything in the high school textbooks.
Especially Chinese and biology, which are not his strong points, and many things need to be memorized.
Now if he is asked to memorize a complete ancient Chinese text, he really can't do it.
The training camps for IMO and IPHO are about to begin, and there is not much time left for him. While there is still some time, he should hurry up and learn Chinese biology.
It is impossible to get full marks in mathematics and physics in the college entrance examination, but fail in Chinese and biology.
Although it doesn't have much impact on him whether he takes the college entrance examination or not.
