When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 254 Recruitment from the Peking University School

The opening ceremony of the Chinese Mathematical Society came to an end.

All major awards that are highly anticipated by domestic scholars have also been announced.

The Hua Luogeng Mathematics Prize was awarded to two academicians. No matter from any aspect, they are well-deserved and no one will think there is anything wrong.

The Chung Jiaqing Award is awarded to current doctoral students in major universities, so not many people pay attention to it.

Only the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Prize is the most topical.

More importantly, after Wang Donglai won the international award Fields Medal, he won an award domestically for the first time.

Although people in academia also know that the Chern Prize in Mathematics is not as valuable as the Fields, Wolf, or Abel Prize.

But what song should be sung on which hilltop?

Since you can be in the country, you can only do it according to the domestic rules.

Ever since.

After the opening ceremony ended, reporters in the venue gathered around Wang Donglai.

In fact, after Wang Donglai won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, domestic reporters wanted to interview Wang Donglai.

Even more so as he won the Abel Prize and the Fields Medal one after another.

In a sense, Wang Donglai, who has won these three awards, is already considered the first person in mathematics in China.

In addition, Wang Donglai is only twenty years old this year, which makes him even more legendary.

Reporters, including the main station, all wanted to interview Wang Donglai properly.

However, these reporters' requests for interviews were rejected by Wang Donglai and were blocked outside the school by Tangdu Jiaotong University.

But now, Wang Donglai has no choice but to accept the interview.

"Professor Wang Donglai, as far as I know, you are the youngest professor in the country. Do you have any special academic skills?"

"Professor Wang Donglai, you have won the top three international mathematics awards, and then won the domestic Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award. How do you feel? Can you share it with everyone?"

"Professor Wang, I heard that Professor Watanabe of Sakura Capital University was expelled because of you. Can you tell me in detail?"

"Professor Wang, the mentor of Sakura Elementary School Haruko Hokata hanged himself. Is it related to your speech at the Global Mathematicians Conference?"

"Professor Wang, many scholars and professors internationally have left messages expressing their recognition of your academic strength. Will you choose to study abroad and teach?"

Questions came one after another, both sharp and tricky.

If it were an ordinary scholar facing these questions, he would probably be in a hurry and not dare to answer easily, for fear that he would say the wrong thing.

But Wang Donglai is not among them.

He knew very well that the reason why these reporters asked these unkind questions was largely because of the attitude he showed when facing the news media.

With many years of memories from later generations, he is very aware of the unscrupulous ethics of these news media reporters.

Take things out of context, avoid the important ones, make trouble out of nothing, create gimmicks, and attract traffic through confrontation.

Before the big era of self-media officially arrived, many people were not aware of these methods used by news media reporters.

When the era of self-media comes, their bottoms will be stripped clean.

Therefore, from the beginning, he was subconsciously on guard against the news media.

Unless he has to accept an interview, he usually refuses.

Wang Donglai did not hide his attitude, so reporters from these news media also knew it, and naturally they would not give Wang Donglai a good look.

So, here are the tough questions asked by these journalists.

If Wang Donglai gives a bad answer, it will definitely cause huge public opinion on the Internet.

Xu Songyao, who was standing by, suddenly changed his expression when he heard the reporters' questions, and immediately prepared to take Wang Donglai away without answering the reporters' questions.

However, the next second.

Wang Donglai's voice sounded.

"The first question is that I can become the youngest professor in the country because my academic ability has reached the level of a professor. As for special academic skills, there is nothing else, just a word of diligence."

"The second question is, winning the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Prize was something I expected. I was excited but also took it for granted."

"The third question is that the affairs of Sakura Country's academia have nothing to do with our country's academia. The International Mathematical Union has already given the reason, and I will not explain it anymore."

"For the fourth question, my answer is the same as the last question."

"The fifth question is, I will not choose to study abroad and teach because I don't think foreign countries are much better than domestic ones. Even if there is a gap, I would rather catch up than join them."

"I have answered your questions. I hope you are satisfied."

After finishing speaking, Wang Donglai walked out from the crowd of reporters.

Xu Songyao ignored the others and immediately followed Wang Donglai.

"These reporters' questions are indeed a bit excessive. You are not a celebrity, and you do not rely on the evaluation of the news media, so you don't have to compromise your mind. As long as you don't say the things that cannot be said, everything else will be fine!"

"If something happens, the school will take care of it for you!"

Xu Songyao did not lecture Wang Donglai or complain. Instead, he encouraged Wang Donglai and expressed his support.

Wang Donglai understood that this was not only Xu Songyao's support for him, but also the support of Tang Capital Jiaotong University.

My own academic value is far beyond what an ordinary professor can match.

Just like several schools of mathematics in China, Tangdu Jiaotong University has no status at all in the domestic mathematics community. After all, Tangdu Jiaotong University's trump card major is engineering, not mathematics.

But now that I have my own, I may not be unable to become a new school of thought in the future.

After thinking about this, Wang Donglai didn't show it in his heart, and said with a calm expression: "Thank you Uncle Xu for your support. I am sensible."

Xu Songyao nodded and said: "As long as you are measured, I also know that you are not the kind of person who makes trouble out of nothing. These journalists love to chase hot topics and also like to use small tricks. They are indeed a bit annoying. It's quite refreshing for you to do this. of!"

"If I weren't already old and no reporters looked up to me, I would have wanted to speak my mind as well as you can and tell the truth!"

Wang Donglai said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, up to now, you are still planning to hide it from me, but Uncle Zheng has already told me."

Hearing Wang Donglai's words, Xu Songyao was not too shocked. He smiled softly and said, "I didn't hide it from you. The appointment from above has not come down. If I blew the lie first and the result was not fulfilled, what would happen?" Awkward."

"It would be better to take further steps. Even if I don't take any further steps, it would be good to retire like this. I can also have more time to work on research topics that I am interested in."

Wang Donglai could tell that Xu Songyao was telling the truth and speaking from his heart. He really thought so.

However, Wang Donglai thought for a while and said seriously: "Uncle Xu, I think you should be fine if you go further!"

When Xu Songyao heard this, he smiled softly and said, "Okay, then I will lend you some good words."

……

Less than an hour.

News about this session of the Chinese Mathematical Society has appeared on various platforms. Again.

Mathematics is inherently boring, and the audience is not large. Even if it is interviewed and published by reporters, it does not gain much popularity and traffic.

However, it was different once he got involved with Wang Donglai.

Wang Dong brings popularity and traffic.

He is really so legendary.

Rich, talented, and good-looking!
When it comes to money, Wang Donglai owns the company Galaxy Technology, and you can find out how much it is worth just by doing a little online search.

In terms of talent, he proved several difficult problems in mathematics in the world. After only one year of college, he obtained an undergraduate degree, a master's degree, a doctorate degree, and two other undergraduate degrees.

In terms of appearance, he is over 1.8 meters tall and has a healthy and masculine temperament after reaching ten points in physical fitness, which is even more popular.

Therefore, this news about the Chinese Mathematical Society, which has not attracted any attention in every session in the past, has become very popular on the Internet.

【…】

The same content, but with all kinds of amazing titles.

In this way, the effect produced is excellent, and the publicity results are outstanding.

There are pictures, texts and videos.

Although netizens have already seen Wang Donglai's moment of glory at the Global Mathematicians Conference, they still felt envious when they saw Wang Donglai on stage again delivering his speech for winning the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award.

Because Wang Donglai did not open a WeChat account, many netizens flocked to the official account of Tangdu Jiaotong University to express their feelings.

"I feel sorry for Professor Wang. Professor Wang has made such great achievements and it is natural to win the Chen Shengshen Mathematics Award. Why should Chen Zhongming from the Chinese Academy of Sciences win the award together with Professor Wang? I think this award should go to Professor Wang alone." get!"

"I support the people above. For some awards, you can't just look for random people just to get enough people!"

"Two silly dogs upstairs. This is the official organization in the field of domestic mathematics. There must be a reason for such awards. It's your turn to question it."

"Professor Wang is indeed great, but this does not mean that other scholars and professors are not great. This is not the first place in the selection. Why should the award be awarded to only one person?"

"I have a junior high school degree and have never been to college. Dear college students, can you explain to me the significance and function of those mathematical problems that Wang Donglai proved?"

"I'm a college student, but I don't understand either. I'm just waiting for graduate students to explain!"

"I am a graduate student, but I am a graduate student studying liberal arts. I don't understand the meaning of proving these difficult problems. I am just waiting for a PhD in mathematics to answer the question."

"I'm in Bald Eagle. I just got off the plane. I'm a PhD candidate in mathematics at MIT, so I'm here to answer this question for you. Issues related to number theory will have great significance in the fields of cryptography, algorithms and quantum technology. The application prospects will also promote the progress of science and technology. The topological group theory used by Professor Wang in proving Goldbach's conjecture is a new mathematical tool, which is of great significance and will promote mathematics. Progress……"

"I don't know how serious it is!"

"plus one!"

"..."

Wang Donglai was unaware of the many comments under the official account of Tangdu Jiaotong University.

Neither the school nor anyone who knew him told him about these comments.

At this moment, he was surrounded by members of the Chinese Mathematical Society.

As a popular figure in today's mathematics world, Wang Donglai's rise is really fast.

Before and after, it was only two years.

From an ordinary high school student, he directly became a university professor and the winner of the world's top awards.

Such a huge change in identity and rapid rise also made Wang Donglai and most members of the society extremely unfamiliar.

It can be said that Wang Donglai does not know many scholars and professors in the Chinese mathematics community.

But the people he knew were all big shots or professors with real talents.

This time, Wang Donglai’s participation in the Hua Guo Mathematics Society was not only what he meant above, but also the common idea of ​​many people.

Since they missed the stage when Wang Donglai was not yet rising, now that Wang Donglai has taken off, it would be really stupid for them not to come and become familiar with him.

Anyone with a brain would not think that Wang Donglai would be blocked from the academician selection.

Even Wang Donglai is not from a certain university.

At most, it will only be postponed for a few years, and Wang Donglai will still be selected as an academician.

Of course, this is based on the premise that Wang Donglai can make greater achievements in the academic field in the future.

If Wang Donglai makes more achievements in the academic field in the future, the sooner he will be selected as an academician.

This is almost obvious and everyone understands it.

Therefore, many professors present, although much older than Wang Donglai, did not look arrogant or condescending, but maintained equality among their peers.

It seems that these professors are not reserved enough, but being able to do this makes these professors appear to be flexible and clear-minded.

After finally talking to these professors, Wang Donglai was about to slip away.

Wang Shicheng, one of the vice presidents of the Mathematical Society, came to Wang Donglai.

"Professor Wang is really young and promising. I heard that he was the top scorer in liberal arts in the country during the college entrance examination. I didn't expect that Professor Wang studied liberal arts in high school and had such a strong talent in the field of mathematics in college."

"In the past two years, our school and Wudaokou have reorganized the admissions office, and they have missed out on talents like Professor Wang."

Listening to Wang Shicheng's words, Wang Donglai showed a reserved smile on his face and said: "Academician Wang was joking. I also met the admissions office teacher of your school at the beginning, but because of my own conditions at that time, I chose Tangdu Jiaotong University. , but it has nothing to do with the admissions office teacher.”

Wang Shicheng waved his hand and said casually: "In any case, missing out on a mathematical genius like Professor Wang also exposed their mistakes in admissions."

"Professor Wang, here, I would like to invite you on behalf of the Institute of Mathematics of Peking University."

"Believe me, if we look at the country, Peking University is definitely one of the top research centers in the field of mathematics. You will never be disappointed if you come here."

"As long as you come, within ten years, I can guarantee you that I will put you on the list of candidates for academician selection."

"How about it? You don't have to rush to give me a reply. You can think about it slowly. You should be able to find my contact information. I hope to receive good news from you!"

After speaking, Wang Shicheng left without waiting for Wang Dong to answer.

Looking at Wang Shicheng's leaving figure, Wang Donglai laughed softly. He didn't expect that Peking University had not given up on him yet.

And set out such conditions.

Shaking his head, Wang Donglai put the matter aside.
