From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 213 Wolf Double Prize Winner!
Although the principal and the chairman of the school board wanted to fight for his own teaching in the Department of Physics or the Department of Mathematics, Lin Xiao did not agree to stay as a professor at the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris.

Because he obviously has no time to stay here to teach and educate people. Since he will return to China completely within [-] months at the latest, if he still stays here, if he brings a graduate student, he will leave after [-] months. No, isn't it just misleading the younger generation.

Especially once he becomes a professor at that time, there will definitely be a lot of students who want to apply for him. Those students must be the best students. These students will definitely not want to see that they have worked so hard to apply The Ph.D supervisor, after a year, ran away almost when they were about to graduate.

So Lin Xiao still rejected the invitation of the two old people.

Both felt a little sorry for this.

"Can't you stay?"

Lin Xiao shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but I hope to return to my motherland to contribute to the development of mathematics and physics there."

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, both of them couldn't help feeling sorry: "I think it's such a pity, if this is the case, it may be difficult for us to meet again in the future."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "I very much welcome you to visit China in the future, and I will invite you to eat our best food."

"Then it's settled."

Mark Mezzard said with a smile.

"of course."

"By the way, when are you leaving? Let's see you off together then."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "It's probably half a month."

He still has to go through the relevant procedures when the time comes so that he can take Mimi back.

"Row."

Neither of them said anything more.

However, at this time, Jean-Pierre Serre, who had been standing next to him, suddenly said, "But, Mezzard, haven't you considered giving Lin an honorary professor?"

Hearing this, Mark Mezzard immediately clapped his hands, and suddenly remembered and said: "Yes, yes, yes! I have forgotten this, Lin, you can't refuse this, right?"

Lin Xiao couldn't help smiling, "Of course I won't refuse."

"That's good."

Mark Mezzard said with a smile: "You just have half a month left before you leave. After that ten days, we will officially award you the honorary professor's medal."

"Respect is worse than obedience."

Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Several people laughed.

Then, this brief but not simple graduation ceremony came to an end.

"It's the last graduation ceremony."

After leaving the classroom for the graduation ceremony, Lin Xiao walked to the atrium garden.

It is already January now, and the cold air makes people shiver uncontrollably, which is completely different from the blooming flowers in April.

"time flies."

With a sigh in his heart, suddenly, his cell phone rang, and after a glance, it was a domestic call.

"Professor Xu?"

Seeing the name of the caller, Lin Xiao was taken aback.

The caller was Xu Ji, his undergraduate tutor.

"Professor Xu, happy new year."

After answering the phone, Lin Xiao smiled and said, New Year's Day was just yesterday, so of course it's the New Year.

"Happy New Year."

Xu Ji responded with a smile, and then said, "Have you graduated from the Ecole Normale Supérieure?"

Lin Xiao said, "Well, I graduated."

"Then you... come back?"

Lin Xiao couldn't help laughing: "I'm sure I'll be back. If you haven't come back for the Chinese New Year, you're celebrating the Chinese New Year in a foreign country?"

Hearing this, Xu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile: "Then when will you come back? Our Beijing University is also waiting to hold a graduation ceremony for you."

"Is Beijing University going to do it too?"

Lin Xiao couldn't help being taken aback.

"Of course, you were jointly trained by us and the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris. If you graduated there, you have to graduate here too."

Xu Ji smiled and said: "Strictly speaking, you should also complete your final graduation in our school. After all, you have graduated from Beijing University."

Hearing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Okay, I will definitely be back before the 20th."

"Okay, let's talk about it."

After that, the two chatted briefly, and then hung up the phone.

Lin Xiao turned his gaze to the courtyard in front of him again, finally took another photo, and left here.

Time passed quickly, and the time was approaching the date of Lin Xiao's return to China day by day. Afterwards, the Paris Ecole Normale Supérieure also prepared an honorary professor conferring ceremony for Lin Xiao in recognition of his important position in the academic world. As for Lin Xiao, the honorary professor? Whether it belongs to the Department of Mathematics or the Department of Physics has caused a quarrel between the principal and the chairman of the school board. Of course, the honorary professor itself belongs to the entire Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris, and this will not change.

Afterwards, Lin Xiao began to prepare for going home. After all, if he wanted to take Mimi back, he could only take the flights that allowed pets.

Of course, it depends on human effort, not to mention that Lin Xiao is already familiar with this, so there is no need to worry.

……

1 month 18 day.

Lin Xiao officially embarked on the flight back to China.

And before he set foot on the flight, he received another call from a local in Paris.

He thought it was a farewell call from a friend in Paris, but after connecting, the voice on the other side made him startled.

"Hello, Lin, I'm Emmanuel Ma xx."

Hearing this voice, Lin Xiao was taken aback for a moment.

"Mr. President?"

"Hehe, it's me." The person opposite smiled heartily, and then said, "I heard that you plan to return to your homeland?"

"Yes."

"You know, scientists like you are the treasure of our entire mankind. To be honest, I am also very envious that Huaguo can give birth to people like you. Therefore, your departure is also a great loss to us in France. "The president opposite said very sincerely: "So I want to know, what are the conditions to keep you? We need scientists like you."

Hearing the other party's words, Lin Xiao smiled and said: "Thank you for staying, but as you said just now, Huaguo is my motherland, and it is what I should do to repay the motherland, not to mention, no matter what I do in scientific research in the future What kind of contribution has been made, and the last person to enjoy knowledge will always be the whole world, so you don’t need to regret my going or staying.”

Hearing what Lin Xiao said, the president still tried to persuade him to stay: "You also said that the whole world enjoys knowledge, so why do you care about different countries? Science has no nationalities."

"But scientists have nationalities, Mr. President."

"Okay." The president gave up, and finally said: "France's door is always open to you, just like the "Mona Lisa" always expects you to stand in front of her again and solve a difficult problem."

"Thank you."

Lin Xiao responded, and then hung up the phone.

The president of a country personally called to ask him to stay. This kind of honor is obviously not something that just anyone can experience.

But even if the other party made multiple promises, Lin Xiao would not agree.

Although the number of people with faith has gradually decreased in this era, he still exists.

Even if we don't seek world communism for the time being, at least we must make our country better.

"Flight xxx can start boarding, passengers are requested to line up for boarding in an orderly manner."

The announcement sounded suddenly, Lin Xiao came back to his senses, shook his head and smiled, carrying his luggage and cat bag - his flight allowed pets to enter the cabin.

Then, start queuing for boarding.

……

Israel, Herzliya Pituya.

Wolf Foundation.

"Today is already January 1. As for whether Lin Xiao should be awarded the mathematics award or the physics award, there must be a conclusion today. Don't forget, we will announce the news to the outside world the day after tomorrow."

The CEO of the Wolf Foundation, Rhett Berman, looked at the board members present and urged.

"I've said it all, Lin Xiao is a mathematician, Goldbach's conjecture, twin prime number conjecture, yes, and root search method! In addition, there are those mathematical methods he used in deriving multi-dimensional field theory, none of which are different. It symbolizes that Lin Xiao is 100% a mathematician!"

Professor Ehud Kennan, a member of the council, stood up and said: "So we should give him the Wolf Prize in mathematics first."

Another member of the council, Professor Sefi Hendler, took out a report directly from the bag next to him, dropped it on the table, and said: "I have asked someone to conduct a social survey, and 80% of the people are Knowing that the solver of multidimensional field theory is Lin Xiao, but knowing that Goldbach’s conjecture is only 60% solved by Lin Xiao, so there is no doubt that Lin Xiao is a physicist, and we should award the physics prize to him first. "

After finishing speaking, this Professor Sefi Hendler sat directly on the chair, crossed his legs, and did not give in to Professor Ehud Kenan's sharp gaze.

Perhaps in the future, the question of whether Lin Xiao is a mathematician or a physicist will always cause debate in the academic circles, and their Wolf Prize is an important award in the world that has both the Physics Prize and the Mathematics Prize. Lin Xiao awarding the mathematics award is tantamount to recognizing Lin Xiao as a mathematician first, and if Lin Xiao is awarded the physics award first, it is tantamount to acknowledging his identity as a physicist first. , is obviously unacceptable.

As for why there is a dispute over whether Lin Xiao is a physicist or a mathematician?

Probably because it has been a long time since such a genius has appeared, and people in both disciplines want to make him "one of their own".

Of course, it may also be because people in the fields of mathematics and physics have nothing to do and have opened up a new battlefield under the tacit understanding.

Naturally, one of these two professors studies mathematics and the other studies physics. Now they are facing each other, which makes CEO Rhett Berman feel helpless. It is because these two professors have been arguing about this matter. Who made them They are the chairmen of the Mathematics Prize and the Physics Prize respectively.

The judges of the other awards watched as if they were having fun. Mathematics and physics quarreled, and other subjects just watched.

And what surprised them all was that this Professor Sefi Hendler actually did a social survey, which was outrageous.

In this way, the two argued for a long time, until both of them were exhausted from the quarrel. During the intermission, someone suddenly asked, "Why can't we award both awards to Lin Xiao at the same time?"

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Will the Physics Prize and the Mathematics Prize be awarded to Lin Xiao at the same time?

In the entire history of the Wolf Award, no one has been able to win these two awards, let alone at the same time. In particular, these two awards are considered to be the most important awards in the Wolf Award. Among them, the influence of the mathematics award is The force is the greatest.

If it is awarded to Lin Xiao at the same time...

That would really be breaking history.

However, the members who came to watch the show soon said, "I agree!"

"Agree!"

"support!"

……

Anyway, it's about these two awards, and it has nothing to do with them, and the fact that the two awards are awarded at the same time can also attract some public attention.

They are still quite happy.

And the two professors were holding water glasses to drink water at this time, they were all taken aback when they heard the proposal, and then put down their glasses one after another, saying, "How is this possible!"

Although this is a good solution, they still prefer Lin Xiao to take their award alone.

But CEO Rhett Berman said bluntly at this time: "Well, let's vote with a show of hands."

"Those who agree to award both awards to Lin Xiao raise their hands now."

Everyone in the meeting raised their hands, except for the two professors.

Rhett Berman spread his hands and said, "Okay, Professor Hendler and Professor Kenan, I believe the two of you should have no objections?"

"No."

The two professors responded reluctantly.

"so be it."

Rhett Berman nodded, "All the award winners have now been confirmed and will be officially announced the day after tomorrow. Well, let's stop here."

Everyone applauded.

At the same time, they couldn't help recalling the appearance of that young man named Lin Xiao in their minds.

Counting this year, this young man should be 21 years old, 21 years old, and won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics and Physics at the same time.

This not only refreshed the lower age limit of their Wolf Award, but even created several histories.

What an important honor this is for a person.

But thinking of the achievements made by that young man, it is not only deserved to be awarded the Wolf Award, but also an honor for the Wolf Award.

If it is not awarded to Lin Xiao, it will even have an impact on their credibility. Maybe it is awarded to someone else, and others will think that it should be awarded to Lin Xiao first, and they will be embarrassed to accept the award.

All in all, it is worthy of the name to award both the mathematics prize and the physics prize to Lin Xiao.

At this time, they are already looking forward to the waves in the academic world after the news is announced.

I believe no one will question this.

……

1 month 20 day.

Eight o'clock in the morning, China time.

When the early risers opened their eyes, the first thing they looked for was the mobile phone next to them.

Then, almost everyone found that various software in their mobile phones sent push notifications to them.

[Chinese mathematician and physicist Lin Xiao won the 2021 Wolf Prize in Mathematics and Physics]

[Lin Shen became the double winner of the world's top mathematics award and physics award! 】

In an instant, people were awake in an instant.
