Qiao Yu didn’t know what to say.
But he felt even more indignant towards that man...
Look at Qiao Xi’s comprehension ability, if she hadn’t encountered that incident back then and had gone to school, she might have been a world-famous beautiful mathematician now!
Damn Frank!
Wait a minute, but without this incident, if Qiao Xi beca a mathematician, it seed like it had nothing to do with him.
Hmm, damn Frank 1!
"Mom, is it possible that you are also a math genius?"
"? Don’t joke around."
Saying this, Qiao Xi stretched lazily, stood up, and sat back on the sofa.
Only then did she casually say, "Just like you’ve said before, studying is the simplest thing in the world. Being a math genius... let’s forget about it."
She really didn’t care much.
In fact, the only thing Qiao Xi probably cares about in this world is Qiao Yu. If it weren’t for having a son, she probably wouldn’t even care much about life and death.
As for the math genius, that should be Qiao Yu.
"Studying is definitely the simplest thing in the world, at least simpler than making money. But I only realized after coming to Yanbei University that getting to this level isn’t that simple.
For example, the Senior Brother Chen I ntioned to you before said he couldn’t understand Schulz’s papers at all. He also couldn’t fully grasp those abstract things. So can you feel the despair of not being able to learn it?"
Qiao Yu, holding the manuscript Qiao Xi had just casually written, caught up to the sofa and said.
"Your Senior Brother, who is also that student of Director Tian, can’t understand Schulz’s paper? He’s lying to you, right?
You might not understand it at first look, but you can read it with other materials. Hmm... no, he should have learned those things before, right?"
This indeed surprised Qiao Xi a bit.
Although Qiao Yu had called him many tis, they rarely talked about academic issues.
When they occasionally chatted, it was just to complain about the difficulties they encountered.
"Why would he lie to ? You really don’t know the situation back then. He was almost desperate to have sothing novel for his dissertation, and then I let... forget it, it’s too complicated to explain, but he really couldn’t understand it."
Qiao Yu said seriously.
Seeing Qiao Yu’s anxious look, Qiao Xi believed in Qiao Yu’s explanation and then smiled and said, "Okay, even if your Senior Brother can’t understand it, I can understand a little...
But this doesn’t seem to explain anything; I just think there’s this possibility. And I don’t know if it’s right, or even how to verify it. So don’t get excited anymore."
Qiao Yu beca more serious, saying, "Elder Yuan once told that only a math genius brimming with talent can propose a valuable mathematical conjecture. Because making a valuable conjecture in mathematics itself is an extraordinary achievent.
It requires not only profound insight and creativity but also an extrely high level of understanding and intuition in the field of mathematics. All of this was Elder Yuan’s original words, said when I started working on the Geotric Langlands Conjecture."
Qiao Xi tilted her head slightly, feeling a bit speechless from Qiao Yu’s persistence.
"Alright, so what? Do you think this proves sothing, and just because I feel there’s a possibility, I can beco a mathematician?
You know, Qiao Yu, when you said you wanted to win the Fields dal in the future, I checked. The award can only be won before forty because mathematicians find it hard to be creative after forty.
And I’m already thirty-four this year! I’m practically an outsider to mathematics, and I’ve never thought about being a mathematician. So this ans nothing to .
If you find it aningful, then my thoughts are your thoughts. You can use them directly. Stop fussing, go to bed early. We took the high-speed train all day today."
After saying this, Qiao Xi stood up and planned to go to her room to sleep. By tomorrow, Qiao Yu probably wouldn’t be so conflicted.
"Is academic work that easy to just pass on like a gift? Is there any rigor left? You go sleep, I’ll send your ideas to Grandpa. Let’s see what he says."
With that, Qiao Yu picked up his phone and took a picture of Qiao Xi’s manuscript.
Qiao Xi turned her head, gave Qiao Yu a look, then walked into the room and closed the door.
She couldn’t be bothered with Qiao Yu anymore.
Ever since this kid got into mathematics, he beca more and more stubborn.
...
Huaqing, Qiuzhai.
Yuan Zhengxin was still in the office, and Tan Lu Yuan was lingering around.
There was no other way; after dinner, the cheerful old man had sent Qiao Yu and his group off, then scolded him for a while with great energy.
It was a real scolding, the kind without any curse words. Honestly, Professor Tan felt wronged; he really had no issues with Qiao Yu, nor any intention of praising him to his detrint.
But he couldn’t withstand the old man’s fiery temper all his life. He could only listen to Elder Yuan’s words...
There was nothing he could do, even though Yuan Zhengxin was not his advisor, he once gave him a lot of help. He could only endure.
Finally, now that his anger had subsided, he was still muttering.
"I know you’ve always had issues with Yan Zhen, but everyone has their own destiny. The grudges of the previous generation shouldn’t be passed on to the next, right?
Although Yan Zhen is sowhat fa-seeking, at least in this aspect he hasn’t done anything excessive, right? No matter how strained our relationship, the younger generation can still cooperate.
He has never obstructed that! Achievents are treated equally. At least this shows that Yan Zhen still has so breadth of mind. You should learn this from him!"
