Chapter 262: Chapter 113: It’s my duty to let the other side know who the real dad is!_6

Honestly, it’s not just that honest people are a tier below geniuses in IQ, their acting skills are also significantly lacking.

“Thank you for all your hard work, junior brother! I won’t say much else, but if you ever need anything from in the future, I would gladly lay down my life for you!”

After hearing this, Qiao Yu nodded and suddenly said, “Actually, there is sothing I need your help with. I want you to look into soone, but absolutely no one can know it’s who wants the information. Is that okay?”

Chen Zhuoyang didn’t hesitate to nod repeatedly and said, “No problem at all, junior brother. But who do you want to inquire about?”

Qiao Yu lowered his voice and said, “A professor at the Berkeley Branch nad Professor Frank, who used to be known as Feng Yu in Chinese. In short, I want any information about him.”

“Huh? I think I have so impression of this professor. If it’s the sa person, then it shouldn’t be too hard to get information. He has a good reputation in the circle of Huaxia math students abroad, known to be down-to-earth and approachable. Did he offend you?”

Chen Zhuoyang asked in surprise.

Qiao Yu ignored his senior brother’s question, instead appearing curious, and asked, “Senior brother has also heard of this professor who cares about Huaxia? Has Professor Frank ever been to our Yanbei?”

Chen Zhuoyang shook his head and said, “No, he hasn’t. I’m in charge of academic conferences at the research center, after all. We hold various conferences and lectures quite frequently, so I co into contact with many students studying abroad, and Yanbei University often goes out for exchanges.

There aren’t that many Huaxia professors doing well in prestigious overseas schools, like the two Professor Zhangs at Princeton and Harvard, Professor Tao at Berkeley, and those who went out from our Yanbei, and then there’s this Professor Frank.

When students go out for exchanges, they often compare these professors. Anyway, this professor is generally regarded as a true gentleman.”

Qiao Yu nodded and said with a smile, “Looks like I asked the right person! I’ll leave this task to you, Senior Brother Chen. Also, when you’re looking into it, you can focus on certain aspects. For example, if Professor Frank is so remarkable and a true gentleman, wouldn’t he be highly admired by so female students?”

“Huh?” Chen Zhuoyang was montarily stunned.

Qiao Yu patted Chen Zhuoyang on the shoulder and said seriously, “Senior Brother Chen, we’re all on the sa side, right?”

“Definitely.”

“Then don’t ask why. Just help look into it. This matter is very important to . Also, absolutely make sure no one knows about it for now.”

“Phew…” Chen Zhuoyang took a deep breath, looked into Qiao Yu’s eyes, and didn’t ask further, but seriously promised, “Alright! I promise!”

…

After sending off Senior Brother Chen, Qiao Yu returned to his room and began using the almighty Google to search for information on Professor Frank on the internet.

The research center provides a dedicated VPN for academic research, making it convenient to use Google.

Fortunately, Qiao Yu was only searching for the biography of a mathematics professor, which wouldn’t cause any misunderstandings.

Google, being as powerful as it is, quickly led Qiao Yu to a graduation photo shared by Professor Frank during his studies at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Instagram.

In his cap and gown, he looked carefree and full of youth. No mistake, it’s carefree, not the wrong word, mainly because “romantic” is too complintary, and Qiao Yu didn’t want to use it.

But really, Qiao Xi wasn’t wrong at all. Upon seeing the photo, he could imdiately recognize he hadn’t found the wrong person!

So it goes to show, you can’t judge a book by its cover… Who would believe such a handso appearance could hide a black heart?

Most mathematicians at worst have a heart slightly clouded with dust, appearing a bit dirty; however, Qiao Yu feels this mathematics professor’s heart is probably filled with a stench.

Simply put, his heart is rotten.

As Qiao Yu was using Google to search for information, Yuan Zhengxin sent over Professor Pan’s number.

Qiao Yu imdiately added Professor Pan on WeChat and started chatting happily.

He naturally began by asking questions.

In terms of mathematics, Qiao Yu can easily co up with a bunch of quality questions, as a mathematics genius not only knows how to learn but understands which questions are valuable, worth asking, and which professors enjoy answering.

Don’t underestimate this ability.

Questions posed on the level of mathematics can often reflect the true level of a mathematician. For instance, all the well-known mathematical conjectures were proposed by truly high-level math players.

By humbly asking questions and earnestly learning, and with the foundation of his relationship with his grandfather, plus his advantage of youth, occasionally expressing curiosity about the workings of a mathematical team, like how so many people research the sa problem and communicate daily?

Soon, the two beca familiar.

During his humble consultations, Qiao Yu uncovered many miscellaneous details.

The most valuable piece of information was that the guy’s wife’s father is a renowned physicist, and his grandfather is actually a Fields dal recipient, both academicians of the Arican Academy of Sciences, and this grandfather is still active on the frontlines of mathematics.

It’s uncertain whether the old man’s heart is healthy enough, or if he’ll be angered to death by his incompetent grandson-in-law in the future.

But it doesn’t matter, as it’s not his wife’s grandfather anyway.

And Qiao Yu feels he has already been nice enough. The other side wanted his physical life more than a decade ago, while he only wishes for their academic life now. Truly, comparing himself to his grandfather, Qiao Yu feels he’s a saint!

While learning about Professor Frank’s life both online and via WeChat, Qiao Yu also downloaded all of Professor Frank’s published papers from his doctoral studies to the present, missing none.

He even went to ArXiv and downloaded those five papers proving the Geotric Langlands Conjecture.

He needs to spend ti carefully studying these papers.

If there are problems, find them. If not, there should be efforts to find so.

After all, a professor aspiring for the Fields dal who only publishes overly general papers is sowhat unreasonable and naturally subject to suspicion. Qiao Yu always believes that no matter how good soone’s reputation is, potential enemies exist.

It’s just that many keep their identity in mind and refrain from speaking out, but if soone dares to break the ice, naturally others will follow suit. Especially mathematicians with academic tyrants’ backing, competing for the Fields dal.

The higher the level of the award, the more intense the competition likely becos? Everyone in the Jianghu, who is more virtuous than whom?

Additionally, Qiao Yu also looked into Professor Frank’s wife’s grandfather’s math team and downloaded all the professors’ papers from the team.

The legendary academic tyrant might actually suppress his subordinates’ achievents to benefit his grandson-in-law.

So professors with similar research directions to Professor Frank are currently Qiao Yu’s primary focus.

The head of the Yanbei International Mathematics Center is his ntor, part of a mathematics team led by a Fields dalist, and the professors in it should be quite renowned. Inviting them to Beijing for a lecture is perfectly normal, right?

Maybe there’d be unexpected surprises?

In short, Qiao Yu, now highly motivated, is well-prepared with many thoughts in mind, though realizing all of them might take ti.

But Qiao Yu doesn’t mind, he’s only sixteen, and the future is as endless as the horizon.

But the other party isn’t the sa, a thirty-four-year-old guy who’s running out of ti to win the Fields dal, with only six years and two International Congress of Mathematicians left.

At least Qiao Yu genuinely believes, as it stands, the advantage is mine!

First step to beco the boss of the opponent, the second step is to give him several slaps to let him experience the frustration of being the son; the third step is to kick him out and experience the harshness of society; the fourth step is to notify society that I disown this son, so they can treat this unruly child even harsher…

If he can execute the entire process, Qiao Yu feels his life would be perfect.
