When I saw Fucha again, he had gray hair, one trouser leg was high and the other trouser leg was low, he was rubbing his hands, and he decided to let me sit at his house.I really ran out of time, and seeing him standing on the sidelines and waiting silently, I had no choice but to obey.I realized later that he wanted to seize this opportunity to let me take a look at his book, a stack of dense drafts written on ledger paper, packed in a plastic fertilizer bag, mixed with some grass whiskers.The texture of the ink is also not very good, the color of the ink is faded, and many places are not very clear.I was surprised to find that this is the most daring research I have seen so far:

He wants to overthrow the pi and revise the universally recognized Π I don't know mathematics, so I can't comment on his research, and I'm full of doubts about his earth-shattering theories. He smiled faintly, rubbed the shredded tobacco until soft, and stuffed it into the bamboo pipe.He said that the interlacing is like a mountain, you may not understand it.Do you recognize the person above? "who?" "A math guy." I quickly said: "No." There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes, but he still smiled, "It's okay, I'll look for it later."

After I returned to the city, he wrote me a letter, not talking about PI, but talking about some language issues.For example, he thinks that "shot" and "short" are two words that are completely reversed. "Shot" is one inch tall, so naturally it is short. "Short", from the arrow, has the meaning of shooting.He wrote this opinion into a letter to the State Council and the National Language Reform Commission, and asked me to find an acquaintance to pass it on, and hand it to the "language people". In another letter, he said that Maqiao people used to say that reading is "asking books", which is what his father said.Learning and learning, how to learn without asking?In contrast, today's "reading" has no meaning, but tends to place too much emphasis on rote memorization of documents.He suggested that it is better to restore the saying of "asking the book" in schools across the country, which is more conducive to the modernization of the country.
