From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 80 Preparing for the Exam
As for those foreign contestants, they couldn't help casting envious and admiring glances at Lin Xiao. They were able to talk to the Fields Medal winner, and even got praise from the Fields Medal winner.

Including, at the end, Professor Pompieri actually invited Lin Xiao to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. In the eyes of these foreign students, it was simply a great honor, especially for these mathematics lovers.

In the American team not far away, the team leader glanced back at his six players. Among the six American players, four of them were of Chinese descent, and they looked at Lin Xiao with envy.

The team leader reminded: "You don't have to be envious. If you pass the test in the next two days and get the gold medal, you can also go directly to Princeton University to study, and you will be able to see all kinds of Fields Medal winners at that time. , After you get a master’s or a doctor’s degree, with the IMO gold medal, you have a good chance even if you apply to be a student of the Fields Medal winner.”

Hearing the leader's words, the six students all nodded, but no matter what, they were still envious.

If you have won the IMO gold medal, you still have to apply. At that time, you have to see if the Fields Medalist agrees. But look at the student from Huaguo, Professor Pompieri came to him on his own initiative.

Also, the International Congress of Mathematicians invites others to give reports. What is the International Congress of Mathematicians?
That is a place where big shots gather, and it must be such a glorious thing to be able to give a report in that kind of place.

One contestant couldn't help asking: "Professor Daisy, did you give a report at the International Congress of Mathematicians?"

Their team leader, Professor Dais, froze and said, "Don't ask so many questions, just watch the opening ceremony carefully."

The player rolled his eyes. It seemed that their team leader didn't have the ability either.

Of course, not only the players of the US team were envious of Lin Xiao, but also some other national teams, and their team leaders also encouraged them by saying that as long as they won the IMO gold medal, they could choose any university in the world.

But no matter what, the team leaders kept their players calm, but they were actually envious of Lin Xiaoneng's presentation at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

It's a pity, envy can't come.

……

Under the eyes of the surroundings, Lin Xiao sat back in his seat.

"Lin Shen, you drink water, you must be thirsty after talking so much just now?"

Sun Yu directly handed over a bottle of water and said courteously.

"My Zhuo, Lin Shen, why is your English so 6?! What did you say to that boss just now?"

"Lin Shen, how did you learn English?"

Several people were shocked. Lin Xiao was able to have a conversation with a foreigner in English just now, and it seemed that the conversation was about mathematics, which surprised them again.

As for what they were talking about, they didn't know, otherwise they would definitely not have asked. Wasn't that someone who was idle and had nothing to do, looking for a blow on purpose?
After hearing the questions of these guys, Lin Xiao thought about it for a while, and it seemed to be so.

When he talked with Pompieri just now, it was very natural to chat in English, and he could fully understand what Pompieri said.

Even if he can understand those mathematical proper nouns, this is also related to his recent special study. After all, sometimes he reads foreign papers, because they are downloaded as PDF files, and it is troublesome to translate them into Chinese. He basically reads them directly. English original.

And reading English papers has also improved his English level, coupled with the development of his brain, there is no problem in English conversation.

Of course, "it's just speaking English, it's not a big deal."

Lin Xiao waved his hand and didn't care. English is just a tool, and Chinese is his mother tongue.

Even though you can speak eight languages, you still have to use a Chinese dialect when you finally talk to your relatives?

When they heard Lin Xiao's words, Sun Yu and the others rolled their eyes.

That's what I said, but they can't do that 6 in English.

Just like this IMO, because it is an international competition, the papers they will use for the exam will actually be in Chinese, including the questions will also be in Chinese. The test papers are translated into English and then corrected by the test paper marking team.

After all, it is an Olympic competition, and the emphasis is on the Olympic spirit. It would be unfair if contestants from some countries could not even understand the questions due to language barriers.

"Then what did you talk to this boss about?"

Leaving aside the matter of English, Sun Yu simply asked: "I just searched, and this boss is the winner of the Fields Medal in 1974, the Fields Medal, a bunch of awesome."

"Oh, he said that I helped him solve a regret, so he came to me specifically to express his thanks."

"What? You don't even know him, so why did you help him solve his regrets?"

Lin Xiao briefly explained the reason: "It's my thesis. He also studied this problem before, but he didn't solve it. Now I figured it out, and my method..."

Sun Yu and the others: "..."

"It means that even the Fields Medal winners didn't have a direction to figure it out, so you figured it out?"

"Lin Shen, to be honest, if you go to the International Congress of Mathematicians this year, will they give you the Fields Medal?"

Lin Xiao laughed: "What are you guessing? My question is not worthy of the Fields Medal."

"Lin Shen is humble."

Lin Xiao rolled his eyes, "Okay, stop talking, watch the opening ceremony, the opening ceremony has begun."

Seeing this, several other people stopped talking and watched the opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony was just like that. First, the IMO chairman and guests gave speeches, and then there were performances and so on.

Lin Xiao was not interested in these things, so he thought about how to proceed in the next few steps if he used the method of modular form theory in his mind.

"I have to change the form again, otherwise, I can't express those figures."

Lin Xiao recalled the inspirations that popped up in his mind when he chatted with Professor Pompieri just now. The inspirations must be grasped, otherwise, they will be fleeting.

In this way, time passed slowly, and Lin Xiao completely sank into his own brainstorming, forgetting about the opening ceremony in front of him.

Although his research on modular formalism is not in-depth, he is still able to reinterpret some theories in modular formalism based on the impression in his mind, so as to continue to broaden his thinking.

After an unknown amount of time, when the opening ceremony was over and Lin Xiao was pushed by Sun Yu next to him, he regained his senses and returned to the hotel together.

The exam officially started at 09:30 tomorrow morning, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening when they returned to the hotel, and it was almost time to rest.

However, Lin Xiao didn't worry about the game tomorrow morning at all. He returned to his room and read the papers related to modular form theory to expand his knowledge and see if he could apply it to his own research.

In this way, he didn't go to bed until twelve o'clock in the evening.
