One simply wants to cry out loud, perhaps this is the wisdom of top physicists, reading feels as if one has developed a subtle connection with the universe—helpful for investment or any field.

Here are some of the most minimalist views I have collected about Yang Zhenning's insights:

1. About Intuition

Intuition is the source of creation

Intuition = Long-term accumulated experience + Insight into natural beauty + Unique personal style

Intuition does not come from nowhere; it is the result of long-term contemplation. When you are stuck on a problem for a long time, suddenly, all the pieces come together, this moment of clarity is intuition.

Good intuition is quick judgment based on deep understanding

A good theoretical worker needs to have a strong physical intuition.

Learning physics is not just about computations; more importantly, it is about cultivating a sense of physical phenomena.

Conflicts between intuition and textbook knowledge are the best learning opportunities, and one must seize this chance.

When you discover something that contradicts your intuition, pay attention; there may be significant discoveries hidden there.

True understanding is seeing the structure behind the form

Good intuition is sensitivity to structure

Mathematics can be correct, but physical intuition can guide you in the right direction.

At the forefront of science, you do not have a map. Your intuition tells you to head in this direction, and the scenery will become broader; go in that direction, and the logic will become more cumbersome. This 'sense of direction' is intuition.

Every scientist's intuition has its unique 'Style'. This style determines their sensitivity to certain information and intolerance to certain contradictions.

In every field of creative activity, a person's taste, along with their ability, temper, and opportunities, determines their style, and this style, in turn, determines their contribution.

In scientific research, intuition is not only about finding the answers to problems but more importantly, deciding which problems are worth investigating. Behind this is an aesthetic judgment.

Intuition is long-term focus and contemplation in a field that enables you to see the most essential structure of things at a glance when information is incomplete.

The laws of physics often possess extreme beauty and simplicity. A scientist's intuition is often their ability to perceive this 'great beauty'.

Dirac's papers are 'the writing of autumn water, untainted by dust'. His intuition has a kind of 'primitive, incredible simplicity'.

Everyone has some intuitions at every moment; these intuitions are mostly correct. However, some need correction and the incorporation of new concepts to become more accurate intuitions. I thus understand that, on one hand, intuition is very important, but on the other hand, one must timely absorb new concepts to correct one's intuition.

2. Other

The natural world has a fundamental symmetry. However, this symmetry is not absolute. It is precisely this tiny 'asymmetry' that constitutes the richness of our world.

Never treat the "self-evident" laws as inevitable

The laws of physics, in their ultimate form, are often of extreme beauty and extreme simplicity

A correct theory must have a sense of 'inevitability' in its mathematical structure. When you read it, you feel it can only be this way, it cannot be any other way.

Vacuum is not empty; the vacuum is vibrant (Vacuum is dynamic). It is a state of being in the lowest energy state, yet always ready to be excited.

The most important aspect of scientific research is the 'sense of orientation'. If you have this feeling, you can find the way to truth in the dark.

Intuition and inspiration are essentially 'the logical compression of long-accumulated knowledge in an instant'. When your brain has processed enough patterns, it no longer needs to infer; it directly gives the result.

Every scientist's intuition has its unique 'Style'. This style determines their sensitivity to certain information and intolerance to certain contradictions.

In every field of creative activity, a person's taste, along with their ability, temper, and opportunities, determines their style, and this style, in turn, determines their contribution.

The ultimate beauty in science is objective; these beauties existed long before humanity.
