Miao Hongchao is a formally trained actor who has featured in several TV dramas with similar strong viewership. His acting has been praised by audiences. Also, he stands out among actors for his higher education. After completing his postgraduate studies, he continued to study further and finally received his doctorate.
His acting skills support Miao Hongchao’s acclaid performances, while his high academic credentials add to his persona.
The construction of an actor’s persona is important.
A good persona can win more people’s favor and also helps celebrities rise to fa quickly. The reason why Miao Hongchao is more popular than actors of the sa level is his "scholar persona".
Whenever Miao Hongchao is ntioned, people always rember that he is a doctorate holder, and subconsciously label him as a ’scholar’.
In the top academic circles, being a scholar isn’t much. Even in second-tier top universities, any student can be considered a scholar as long as they are willing to put in the effort to study earnestly; getting a master’s or a doctoral degree is not unattainable.
But being a scholar in the entertainnt industry is rather intriguing.
It can’t be said that all stars in the entertainnt industry are academic slackers, but among the younger ones who have taken the College Entrance Examination, very few have scored above 500 points. Most are at the three or four hundred level, so can’t even pass the 300-point threshold, you can say their scores almost entirely depend on luck.
Having a doctorate degree in the film and television industry is interesting.
From ti to ti, Miao Hongchao plays up his "scholar persona" and occasionally pays attention to academic matters, sharing them with his fans.
This ti he’s just hopping on a ’trend’.
Miao Hongchao saw the news online saying that the ’Effective and Irrelevant Carry Filtering’ hides the process of proving the Collatz Conjecture. Many scholars in mathematics and computer science, whether interested or not, are studying the ’Effective and Irrelevant Carry Filtering’.
Miao Hongchao and his agent discussed it, found the content of the paper and so clips of speeches, and took the opportunity to jump on the trend, publicly claiming to have proven the Collatz Conjecture. They even found so proof of the Collatz Conjecture, copied and pasted to make sothing that seed sowhat plausible, took a photo with a cara, and published it as a ’proof fragnt’.
Anyway, most people won’t understand it.
This event has only benefits and no disadvantages that Miao can think of at the mont.
Now there are many people online saying that they have gained inspiration from ’Effective and Irrelevant Carry Filtering’ and claiming to have proven the ’Collatz Conjecture’... If he also chid in, the most it would do is amplify the topic, attract public and fan attention. Whether or not it has been proven is not important, in a little while, no one will care.
Because...
Anyway, no one has really proven it.
Miao Hongchao even consulted several scholars, they are not optimistic that Zhao Yi could prove the Collatz Conjecture, thinking that during his speech, he found flaws in his own filtering thod and so people couldn’t accept it so he bluntly said he proved it.
This is understandable.
Zhao Yi is just an eighteen-year-old high school student, far from being mature.
Miao Hongchao felt relieved.
...
Miao Hongchao’s approach indeed reached its goal.
Many people online are talking about him. There are so many news items about him proving the Collatz Conjecture that he can’t even read them all. Several major dia even reported on it.
There are both support and doubts in the online public opinion.
Doubts are inevitable, as the whole proof process is not available. But compared to the massive support and the huge attention it attracted, a little doubt doesn’t matter.
Soon.
New news was released.
Serversl dia in Nanjiang published Zhao Yi’s interview at the sa ti, "If he really cracked the ’Collatz Conjecture’, shouldn’t he publish a paper in a top journal or give a lecture at an academic conference?"
This statent makes his stance clear.
Regarding Miao Hongchao’s proof of the Collatz Conjecture, Zhao Yi’s attitude is definitely one of doubt, the congratulations that co after it were ignored.
The internet is never short of irrational fans. A wave of criticism imdiately followed--
"Doubting my idol?"
"Who is Zhao Yi? Just an author of an algorithm? What’s so great about that!"
"If you can prove it, certainly we can too!"
"Disbelieving the strength of my idol?
"My idol has a doctorate, while you are just a high school student, what a laugh, high school students questioning a doctor!"
"What proof? What speech? My idol still needs to film. There is no ti to do those things!"
"..."
If we compare the internet to a movie, Zhao Yi is at best a ’passerby’, a ’random pedestrian’ kind of character who is lucky to even get a shot, while Miao Hongchao is at least a supporting role with lines and screen ti, attracting a large amount of supporters.
In terms of public opinion, Miao Hongchao can easily beat Zhao Yi.
Even if Zhao Yi is right about certain things, Miao Hongchao can still trample over him and declare black as white with the power of his fanbase.
But public opinion isn’t just about having many fans.
Zhao Yi’s ’Filtering thod’ speech has begun to fernt in a few days. The International Computer Association published an article highly praising the ’Effective and Carrying-Unrelated Filtering thod’, describing it as ’a great initiative in computer algorithm’. They also officially nad the ’Effective and Carrying-Unrelated Filtering thod’ as ’Zhao’s Filter’.
Many top computer experts have stated that Zhao Yi has the chance to compete for the ’Turing Award’ next year because of ’Zhao’s Filter’.
The ’Turing Award’ is the Nobel of computer science!
So far, only Yan Zhixing has won the Turing Award dostically. Most people aren’t even qualified to be nominated, let alone win any prize.
At the sa ti.
Several top universities overseas have publicly invited Zhao Yi to give a speech and have expressed their welco for Zhao Yi to study there.
All of the above is normal.
Zhao Yi has also received so interesting invitations. For example, two publishing companies have contacted him wanting to cooperate on publishing a book, the content would be ’Zhao’s Filter’.
Additionally, so educational institutions have said many proof processes in ’Zhao’s Filter’ can be used as textbook content individually, it can help students develop intelligence and train their logical thinking abilities.
The reaction speed of the official dia is always slower.
Probably because they have to make accurate reports. After everything was confird, the ’People’s Daily’ also published an article affirming ’Zhao’s Filter’, stating ’research is not about age or educational background’ and ’academic research is not a joke’.
The first sentence affirms Zhao Yi.
The latter is a bit pointed towards the recent online public opinion, as many people have casually claid to have ’proven the Collatz Conjecture’ as if it were a joke.
Miao Hongchao is a typical representative.
After the "People’s Daily" published the article, the internet’s public opinion changed, and those who doubted Miao Hongchao ca forward. Their sentint echoed Zhao Yi’s, "If you have really proven the Collatz Conjecture, why not publish a paper in academic journals or make a presentation in a top academic conference? Why always manipulate public opinion?"
Many fans of Miao Hongchao hoped that their idol would speak up, to give a response.
But Miao Hongchao played ostrich instead.
...
As one of the major figures in the online public discourse, Zhao Yi didn’t take the matter to heart.
Because, facts are facts.
No matter how one rattles off, it has no aning. Academics is not about entertainnt. Having research results is what matters, while having none and talking a lot is useless.
He had submitted his paper and all he had to do was wait for the review.
This was rather unbearable.
However, Zhao Yi didn’t take it seriously. He just continued his normal life of studying.
The weekend ca.
Zhao Yi and his classmates went through the anxious monthly test.
The monthly test had implications for allocating class position in the elite class. Students with middle-level grades faced much pressure, while top students also cared about their ranking in school.
Like, Lin Xiaoqing.
The last ti she had ranked second in the whole school, with only Zhao Yi achieving one point more.
Over the past few days, Lin Xiaoqing had been studying hard, even gnawing at her books during her breaks, looking very much like she would swallow them whole.
The English exam ended.
Zhao Yi took out his MP3 player to listen to music. He put the earplugs in and leaned back to close his eyes and rest. Just brushing his ’Art Coin’ did indeed put his mind and body at ease.
Lin Xiaoqing ca over and asked, "How did you do on the English test?"
"Stop bothering !"
Zhao Yi straightforwardly denied answering.
"Just tell !"
"I am not exchanging answers!" Zhao Yi once again directly rejected.
Lin Xiaoqing pouted in anger.
Zhao Linlin made a hand gesture to her, aning sothing like ’I’ll have your revenge.’ She pretended to walk towards Lin Xiaoqing, but when she passed by Zhao Yi, she suddenly grabbed his MP3 player, unplugged it, and ran out of the classroom laughing.
Lin Xiaoqing followed suit and laughed too, shouting, "Linlin, wait for ."
"Young girls, so childish!"
Zhao Yi casually shook his head indifferent.
Under the surprised gaze of the others, he calmly took out another identical MP3 player, put the earplugs in and continued listening.
anwhile.
Florida, Gainesville.
The famous mathematics professor, Old Dunn, and his student, who is also a mathematics professor, Thomson, were doing manuscript reviews for the "Mathematics Society Magazine" .
Thomson complained, "I’ve suggested before, we should lower our manuscript requirents. Look, we’ve received a heap of papers and research, but there’s still not enough content for one issue of the magazine!"
Old Dunn nonchalantly responded, "If we lower our review standards, the weight and impact factors of our magazine will decrease. And then others won’t send their best papers to us."
"I of course know that, I’m just complaining. I feel like doing reviews is purely a waste of ti. Look, I’ve read seven proofs of the ’Collatz Conjecture’ in just the last two days."
Thomson said frustratedly, doing a keyword search and pulling up a whole list of emails on the ’Collatz Conjecture’.
"It’s that Chinese high school student. He said in his speech that he used binary transformations to prove the ’Collatz Conjecture’, seemingly inspiring a lot of people who then believed that they had found a proof."
"It’s funny, a group of mathematicians and computer experts got tricked by a high school student who deals in algorithms."
Old Dunn slowly walked behind Thomson and took a glance at his computer screen.
Suddenly.
He moved the mouse and clicked on a submitter’s na, "Zhao-Yi? If I rember correctly, isn’t that the high school student you were talking about?"
"Really?"
Thomson searched the web and quickly found Zhao Yi’s na.
He compared.
It was a match!
"I’m not sure if it’s the sa person, but the na is the sa. And he actually wrote a proof paper?" Thomson felt it was quite amusing. Just like the people in his country, overseas mathematicians also didn’t believe that Zhao Yi had proven the Collatz Conjecture. They thought he was joking.
What a real ’joke’!
Zhao Yi?
A Chinese high school student who also specializes in computer algorithms, yet has proven the Collatz Conjecture which has baffled top mathematicians for decades?
Thomson found it funny to even imagine, but he still clicked to open the file.
Then.
Thomson and Old Dunn prepared to find errors in the proof process.
Both of them had easy smiles on their faces.
To them, this felt like a simple math ga: read a proof of the ’Collatz Conjecture’ written by a high school student, think it through and find the mistakes.
Isn’t this just like kids finding mistakes in pictures?
