Ever since the last mathematics conference, CTV had obtained the live broadcast rights of the conference.
This time, Academician Lu won another award at the ICM conference. CTV obviously wouldn't miss out on this excellent publicity opportunity.
Even though it wasn't a Fields Award, it was still an award presented at the ICM conference. It was the highest level of honor in the mathematics world.
How could they not share this exciting moment with the entire country?
The editor who was in charge of the news almost said that the Gauss Prize was a world-class award that was better than the Fields Medal.
However, in terms of academic achievements, the ten Fields Award were no match for the Gauss Award. Also, the Gauss Prize was always the first to be announced.
If they had to explain it like this …
It didn't seem to be a problem?
However, even though CTV did promote the show with this bias in mind, it surprisingly did not cause a huge reaction.
There was only one reason.
The audience seemed to have long been numb to the fact that Academician Lu had won an award again …
However, someone obviously didn't realize this.
Or rather, he had overestimated the impact of this news on his father.
During lunch, Ji Mo saw the news about Professor Lu winning the award. He was thinking about how to tell his parents that he applied to Jin Ling University. He suddenly had an idea. He seized this opportunity and revealed the secret that he had been hiding for two months.
When Ji Zhong heard that his son didn't report Yan Da's Shuimu, he didn't believe it at first. It wasn't until he asked for confirmation that he was sure his son wasn't joking with him.
He went silent for a few seconds.
Then, without saying a word, he reached out to touch Itchy Scratch, who was at the side, and raised his hand to hit him.
"You piece of sh * t! Who told you to apply to Jin Ling University? Didn't you tell me that you applied to Yan University?! "
When Ji Mo saw the bamboo stick flying at him, he threw away his chopsticks and jumped out of his chair. He quickly dodged to the side.
"Dad, listen to me, listen to me!"
"Explain my a * s! I'm going to kick your ass! My last name is yours! "
Ji Mo was dumbfounded. He said, "Your last name is mine."
"Shut up! How dare you talk back to me! "
A month ago, when he heard that his son had gotten a full score in the International Olympic Games, Ji Zhongtian was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth for the entire week. He smiled at everyone he met, and those who didn't know better would have thought that he had won the lottery.
In his opinion, not to mention getting full marks and winning glory for the country, even if he could get into the national training team, he would most likely be able to get into the University of Beijing!
In fact, that was what his son told him in the beginning.
However, who would have thought …
That his son did not apply to Yan University, Shuimu University, or even a university in Beijing. He applied to Jin Ling University!
Hearing this news, he was so angry that his nose almost became crooked.
"Jin Ling University has Professor Lu!"
"So what if you have Professor Lu? Can you eat that? Did you study mathematics too much that you've become stupid? Do you really want to spend the rest of your life with mathematics? "
"Can't I?"
"Stand there, I'll teach you a lesson first, then I'll tell you if I can or not!"
"Don't, dad, if you hurt me, you'll lose the future of China's mathematics community!"
"Stop bullsh * tting with me! Don't move! "
The video continued to play on the TV.
Lu Zhou took the medal from Professor Sen Chongwen and returned to his seat. Soon after, it was the Shiing-Shen Chern Mathematics Award, the Levalati Award, and the finale, the Fields Award.
Even though these awards had nothing to do with Lu Zhou, for the sake of the integrity of the award ceremony, CTV still gave the winners on stage a shot.
When Li Mo saw the lady on the stage, his eyes lit up. He raised his voice and spoke.
He raised his voice and said, "Dad, that Ms. Vera Pulyuy is Lu Zhou's student from Princeton!"
This sentence seemed to have some effect.
Whether it was out of curiosity or something else, Old Man's hands stopped moving and he turned around to look at the TV.
"Student?"
Ji Zhong stared at the girl on the TV and frowned. He rubbed his chin and said, "This girl is quite pretty … She doesn't look like a mathematics student."
Ji Mo was tired from running around the table. He put one hand on the chair and said, "Sigh, that's not important. The important thing is that this Fields Award winner was taught by Professor Lu!"
Ji Zhong snorted and said, "And then?"
Ji Mo said, "Professor Lu accepted me as his student!"
Ji Zhong snorted with a smile, but he was no longer angry.
"Keep bragging, he's an academician. He's a busy person, it's rare for him to have time to attend classes. Why would he have time to teach you?"
Li Mo hurriedly said, "Dad! I'm telling the truth, I have his email as evidence. If you don't believe me, I can show it to you. "
Seeing his son's confident expression, Ji Zhong frowned and finally put down the Itchy Scratch in his hand.
"Are you sure Academician Lu taught you personally?"
Li Mo: "It doesn't matter if he doesn't teach me personally. It's not like he has to teach me every day. As long as he can give me some pointers, I'll learn the rest myself."
"You're right, it's good to be Academician Lu's student." Ji Zhong nodded and said, "With Academician Lu's ability, it's not a problem for him to help you find a job."
Li Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Aiya, Dad, why are you always thinking about work? How old am I? Can't I have some dreams? What's the difference between a fish and a fish without a dream? "
Ji Zhong looked at him and said, "What dream do you have?"
Li Mo smiled confidently and raised his chin at the TV, full of ambition.
"What's a gold medal in the Olympiad?"
"If we're going to do it, we're going to do it bigger!"
…
The list of Fields Prize winners had just been announced, and the MathOverflow forum was already exploding.
Compared to the Gauss Prize, the new Female Fields Prize winner was undoubtedly a big surprise.
Another female Fields Prize winner was born!
A 26-year-old mathematics genius!
Layers of halos appeared on his body, instantly overshadowing the radiance of the other three winners.
[Wow! A 26-year-old winner! Fields Prize winners don't have to wait in line anymore?]
[I don't know why the award committee made this arrangement, but in my opinion, this is unfair for scholars who have been waiting in line for more than a decade.]
[The influence of the Collatz conjecture is undoubtedly worthy of this honor. Also, her main work is to perfect the Group Structure Method and complement Professor Lu's work. I think there's nothing wrong with her winning this award.]
[I think so too, the only problem is that she's too young … and she's a woman.]
[What's wrong with women? Did they steal your rice? You guys deserve to be single forever!]
[I don't have any evidence, but I suspect there's a dirty deal behind this …]
Lu Zhou: "…"
These dogs …
Why are they so dirty?
He didn't know if it was because he registered an account on MathOverflow, but there were more and more Chinese scholars on this forum. Sometimes, he felt like he was scrolling through Weibo.
However, when Lu Zhou saw the discussion, he honestly didn't expect Vera to win the award.
Or rather, he didn't expect her to win this award at this year's Fields Prize.
After all, no matter what, she was only 26 years old, and it was too early for her to win.
Not to mention that her results only met the expectations of the Fields Prize, but she wasn't as outstanding as him, to the point where the Fields Prize had to be awarded to her.
After the opening ceremony, the most famous opera troupe and ballet troupe of St. Petersburg were performing talent shows.
Even though Lu Zhou was sitting nearby, he didn't have a chance to talk to Vera.
After the show was over, he found out that the girl sitting in her seat was gone.
His phone vibrated in his pocket.
Lu Zhou took out his phone and saw that it was a message from Xiao Ai.
[Master, do you want me to help you find her room number? (///ω///)]
Lu Zhou: "No need."
Only a psycho would do something like this, right?
Xiao Ai: [But is this really okay? You have something to say to her, right? ()】
Lu Zhou: "… You don't understand."
Xiao Ai: [Huh? | Ω)]
"It's not that I have something to say. I don't want to say anything, and I have nothing to say …"
Lu Zhou sighed softly and scratched the hair on the back of his head. He said with some annoyance, "There are some questions that I don't know how to answer."
