After more than ten hours of flight, the plane finally landed on the runway of Shang Jin International Airport. A voice came from above the cabin.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we will soon arrive at Shang Jin International Airport. The toilet is about to close, please return to your seat, fasten your seat belt, and put away the table in front of your seat. The outdoor temperature is 2 ° C, thank you for taking this flight! Have a pleasant flight! "
After the gangway was connected, the middle-aged man sitting next to Lu Zhou was relieved. He quickly got up and ran away.
Lu Zhou looked at him and shook his head.
I don't know how he hasn't gone bankrupt yet.
"Let's get off the plane."
"Yeah."
The two stood in the corridor and followed the other passengers toward the exit.
For some reason, the people in front of them were a bit slow.
Lu Zhou walked to the cabin exit. He was about to walk down the gangway, but as soon as he stepped through the cabin door, he was stunned.
He saw a group of people in suits and leather shoes standing outside the gangway, looking at him with smiles on their faces.
Even though Lu Zhou heard that someone would come to the airport to pick him up, he didn't expect so many people to pick him up …
Chen Yushan, who was standing next to him, was also stunned.
However, the reason why she was stunned was different from Lu Zhou.
What she didn't expect was that the father who told her that he had something to do and didn't have time to pick her up was less than ten meters away from her at this moment.
The father and daughter looked at each other and went silent …
Academician Xiang Huanan was standing in front of the group of people. He looked at Lu Zhou and smiled. He then enthusiastically reached out his hand.
"Professor Lu, long time no see!"
Lu Zhou looked at the old man with surprise.
"Academician Xiang?"
"Haha, it seems like you still remember me."
"How could I forget about you?" Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly. He let go of his suitcase and shook hands with the old man. "How have you been? How are you?"
"Very good!" Academician Xiang Huanan smiled heartily and said, "I heard that you won the Hoffman Medal in Germany. You've brought glory to China's academic community!"
Lu Zhou said modestly, "That's just an empty reputation. There's no need to mention it anymore."
Academician Xiang waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be humble. The Chinese Academy of Sciences even held a special meeting for the theoretical model of the electrochemical interface structure. We gathered a few old professors from the Institute of Chemistry to study it. They think that your theoretical model will definitely have a bright future in the field of surface chemistry and polymer materials!"
Hearing this compliment, Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly and didn't know what to say.
At this time, an old man of high status walked over with a smile on his face.
"Professor Lu, welcome home!"
Lu Zhou had never seen this old man before, so he couldn't help but ask, "You are?"
Academician Xiang smiled and introduced, "This is the head of the Talent Bureau of the Organization Department, Comrade Ma Gaoyang."
From the Talent Bureau?
Lu Zhou didn't really know what this department did, nor did he know the status of this department. He only vaguely remembered that the "Thousand People Initiative" was led by them, and more than a dozen other departments were involved …
In short, they were quite high level.
"What head?" Ma Gaoyang waved his hand and looked at Lu Zhou. He smiled and said, "If you don't mind, you can call me Uncle Ma."
Lu Zhou said, "Hello, Uncle Ma."
Ma Gaoyang smiled and nodded. He said, "You must be tired from the long flight. Let's talk in the car …"
When Lu Zhou bumped into Academician Xiang and the others, the onlookers who witnessed the whole process began to talk.
"Who is that?"
"I think it's a mathematics professor."
"Mathematics professor? What's so good about being a mathematics professor? It's not like he's an international superstar. "
Someone could not help but say, "Do you think he's an ordinary mathematics professor? He's not as good as a superstar."
"Who else could it be?"
"Lu Zhou."
"Lu Zhou? What's that? "
"The Lu Zhou who solved Goldbach's conjecture! Professor Lu! "
Not many people knew what the Crafoord Prize and Hoffman Prize were. People who didn't pay attention to academia probably wouldn't remember who was praised in a certain issue of Everyone Daily.
But speaking of Goldbach's conjecture …
Anyone who went to elementary school would be familiar with it.
"The f * ck?! It's him?! "
…
After they got in the car, Xiang Huanan and Lu Zhou were chatting.
"What have you been researching recently?"
"Navier – Stokes equations."
"Navier – Stokes equations?" Academician Xiang looked at Lu Zhou and said, "Don't tell me it's the Clay Institute's Millennium Prize Problems?"
"That's right," said Lu Zhou as he nodded.
"You young people are so aggressive," said Professor Xiang Huanan. He smiled and said, "If you can really solve it, it'll be a great boon to the world."
Academician Xiang paused for a second before he spoke.
"I know a bit about number theory, but partial differential equations are beyond my research scope. I have nothing to talk to you about. However, there are a lot of PhDs doing research in this area at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Are you interested in joining us? "
"Now?"
Even though Lu Zhou was interested, he needed to rest.
"Of course not now." Academician Xiang laughed and said, "I'll take you to your hotel first! You've been on the plane for so long, how can I trouble you now? I have to wait for a few days! "
Inside another car.
The father and daughter stared at each other for a long time, but no one said a word.
Finally, Chen Yushan broke the silence.
"Dad."
"Yeah."
"Didn't you tell me … You have a meeting today?"
Chen Baohua coughed and said, "The company only said it was business. I didn't know what it was until the meeting at noon."
Chen Yushan: "…"
Chen Baohua straightened his expression and continued speaking with the authority of a father.
"You know him?"
Although she was dissatisfied with her father's questioning attitude, Chen Yushan still answered honestly when she saw the serious expression on his face.
"Yeah."
Chen Baohua asked in a serious tone, "How do you know him?"
Chen Yushan said carefully, "My classmate."
Chen Baohua kept a straight face and scolded in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Chen Yushan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Dad, you didn't ask me … I can't possibly tell you all the people in my contact list."
Chen Baohua realized that he asked a stupid question, so he awkwardly changed the topic.
"Do you know what he does?"
"He's a Princeton mathematics professor … Dad, did he break the law?" Chen Yushan asked nervously.
She hadn't seen Lu Zhou since he got in the car.
Honestly, she was still worried. She just didn't have the chance to ask.
"No." Chen Baohua coughed and said, "Otherwise, we wouldn't be the ones picking him up."
Chen Yushan breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he didn't break the law.
Chen Baohua didn't let his daughter off the hook. He asked in a serious tone, "What's your relationship?"
Chen Yushan said, "Old classmate?"
