Science and art, reason and sensibility...

Xu Mang feels that Xiaoman's thinking is wrong. In fact, she cannot be blamed for this. Most people think that science is very rational, while art is very emotional, but this is obviously a misunderstanding of science and art.

"cut!"

"You know nothing!" Yang Xiaoman pouted and said unconvinced: "You don't have any artistic cells in your body, let me see... you only have artistic pustules, you big idiot... you know

What does it mean to be an artist?”

"..."

Xu Mang stretched his neck and said seriously: "First of all... art is not absolutely emotional. When I was in my third year of high school... I conducted a systematic study of the entire history of art, and I found that a lot of it is actually deduced by reason.

Made of.”

"Senior year of high school?"

"Is this the reason why Gao Sansan sleeps all day long?" Yang Xiaoman said angrily.

"Ahem!" Xu Mang coughed lightly and said seriously: "Can you please change the subject? I'm talking about the history of the development of art. Do you know why Renaissance painting is so brilliant? Why has the level improved so high?

"

"Of course I know!" Yang Xiaoman said disdainfully: "There is a very complicated relationship here. First of all, after the eleventh century, with the recovery and development of the economy, the rise of cities and the improvement of living standards, people gradually changed their past views on

The pessimistic and despairing attitude of real life began to pursue the pleasure of secular life."

"And these are contrary to the claims of a certain religion. In the fourteenth century... the Italian city-states emerged to fight against a certain religion." Xiaoman said: "It is actually a new anti-feudal movement of the bourgeoisie! A kind of ideological emancipation.

of waves.”

"No!" Xu Mang shook his head: "This is only part of the reason. The improvement of painting in the Renaissance is actually related to the geometry and protrusion behind it. The progress of these two disciplines improved the improvement of painting at that time."

"Da Vinci has done many anatomy and has a very clear understanding of the structure of the human body. If you look at his paintings, you will find that they are even more accurate." Xu Mang paused and continued: "Do you know about Impressionism?

?”

Impressionism?

Yang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment and frowned slightly: "Impressionism... is an important art school in the history of Western painting. At that time, Monet created an oil painting and was attacked by the academics. They jokingly called these painters Impressionists, and then they

...That’s it.”

"Ouch?" Xu Mang was a little surprised and said cautiously: "When did you pay so much attention to painting?"

"After pregnancy..." Yang Xiaoman curled her lips and said calmly: "My child is going to be an artist. If my mother doesn't even know art, how will she be trained in the future? Like you? Teach some messy people.

thing?"

"hey-hey..."

"You can teach him how to make money." Xu Mang said with a smile: "The great Xu Yang."

"roll!"

"Hehe~" Xu Mang said hurriedly: "Do you know why the Impressionists are so blurry? For example, you said Monet, their words are always unclear. Actually... that was because the photography technology at that time impacted the entire field of painting.

A new way of painting is needed."

"Impressionist paintings are not to depict the object itself, but to depict the light and shadow of the object. They are just capturing the light and shadow." Xu Mang said: "If you just capture the light and shadow, there is no concept of lines. Without lines, it will look like

It’s a blur.”

"But it can give you a more immersive feeling." Xu Mang gently grabbed Xiaoman's delicate hand and said with a smile: "Picasso's Cubism, why do you put a person's front and side on the same plane?

.”

"Many people think this is very strange and full of imagination... It's not!" Xu Mang suddenly said seriously: "Picasso was trying to answer a question, how to use a two-dimensional painting plane to express the integrity of a three-dimensional object.

.”

"This is a reflection on a philosophical issue...such as Dadaism, Surrealism, Symbolism, etc., there is a lot of rational thinking and philosophical thinking in it." Xu Mang said: "So...artistic expression methods

It is emotional, but its core content is rational."

Total defeat!

It’s really a complete failure!

Yang Xiaoman was so angry in her heart, why was this guy so boring that he studied the relationship between art and subjects, and he studied it so thoroughly. When comparing horizontally and vertically, he was indeed inferior to him in terms of parenting.

So annoying!

Could it be that I, my mother, cannot educate a beautiful child from heaven?

In Xiaoman's mind, no matter whether he is a son or a daughter in the future, his achievements must exceed those of himself and Xu Mang, but it seems difficult to think about it. After all, his and Xu Mang's positions are too high. After thinking about it, he still wants to be an artist.

However, I never expected that artists would not be able to circumvent science.

Become a scientist?

impossible!

For Xiaoman, her husband is a scientist, and he is also a very powerful scientist. If his son is a scientist, he may not even be able to find a wife. If his daughter becomes a scientist, the same may be true.

"What's wrong?"

"Is it a bit cold?" Xu Mang felt Xiaoman shivering and asked with a confused look on his face.

"It's nothing... I'm just shaking with anger." Yang Xiaoman sighed, turned around and looked at Xu Mang, and said seriously: "Husband... can you sign an agreement? I'm going to miss you one day.

I’ll beat you to death, and you were beaten to death voluntarily.”

Xu Mang:???

This bitch...is a bit fierce!

What kind of overlord agreement is this? This is clearly a death agreement.

"Ahem..." Xu Mang gently hugged Xiaoman into his arms and said softly: "Don't make trouble..."

"snort!"

"You know how to make me angry every day." Although Yang Xiaoman liked the feeling of being held in Zhang's arms and felt a sense of security, she felt upset when she saw his face.

Fuda,

Mathematics Department Building,

Director Ouyang is visiting a certain community, and this online community is China's first-class mathematics research forum, and the first post is a report about a certain foreign genius who spent ten years cracking a mathematical conjecture.

The owner of the post was very attentive and translated the article in great detail, which attracted the attention of many people in a short period of time.

The zone conjecture is a conjecture that has existed for more than 40 years. This conjecture describes that if a unit sphere is completely covered by several spheres, the sum of their widths is at least π.

This conjecture is quite important. In the past, a top mathematics expert predicted that the solution to this problem would have great practical application value and could promote the advancement of the field of discrete geometry. This was agreed by everyone.

For example, the densest packing problem helps to optimize coding and correct errors in data transmission; another example is the famous four-color theorem, which describes that four colors are enough to draw a map on a sphere, so that any adjacent

Both areas have different colors.

And it led mathematicians to introduce important concepts from graph theory, which have been crucial to many recent developments in chemistry, biology and computer science, as well as logical systems.

now,

The zone conjecture was finally cracked, but many people were angry about it. The genius was very arrogant and threatened that the whole world could not crack it, so it attracted a lot of curses. However, curses are curses, and this is indeed the case.

Many mathematics experts have participated in the action of cracking the zone conjecture, wanting to prove that they have this ability, including several famous universities around the world, and the mathematics departments of those universities are among the top in the world.

Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Princeton, Cambridge, etc., all of them are studying the zone conjecture. There are also several universities in China that have participated in this worldwide movement, but there are many difficulties. Everyone

They are all strangers and have no connection at all.

Director Ouyang was very anxious, but he didn't care about it. Seeing that several universities in China were so disunited, he felt a little disappointed. If this continues... it will definitely fail.

In fact, by this time, it is no longer a simple game, but a mathematical confrontation. It is obvious... At present, China is on the weak side, because the strongest mathematics department in China, the Department of Mathematics of Peking University... has been

No progress has been announced today.

Basically, I have encountered some big difficulty that cannot be solved for the time being.

In this regard,

Director Ouyang felt that instead of placing bets on the Mathematics Department of Peking University, it would be better to find a giant to come over, who might have a chance to surpass him, and this giant is Xu Mang. He believed that as long as Xu Mang takes action, let alone surpass...

.Then it must be the aspiration.

Doesn't the so-called genius claim to have successfully cracked it in ten years? If it were Xu Mang... I believe he could succeed in ten days.

At this point,

Director Ouyang is very confident that Xu Mang can give others such a feeling.

"well..."

"What a pity!" Director Ouyang sighed. Ever since Xu Mang's wife became pregnant, the world's top scientist has fallen into a state of confusion. He has not published any important research results for almost three months. People who don't know think he has disappeared.

.

Bang bang bang,

There was a knock on the door, and then Deputy Director He Liqun came to the office.
