Top Student at Their Peak Chapter 682: 212: God's Favor? (2)

Chapter 682: Chapter 212: God’s Favor? (2)

Hearing these words, Professor Chen Zhelun paused his steady steps for a mont and then took a deep breath.

Alright, Qiao Yu has the right to say this sentence.

After hesitating for a mont, Chen Zhelun said: “Then let’s set aside a chapter specifically to list all his contributions. It should take about a week to complete, and by then you can take it to Dr. Qiao to have a look.”

Yu Wei silently nodded.

…

United States, Princeton.

It was likewise the start of the school season, but for Lott Degen, the new sester didn’t seem to bring any new atmosphere.

He used to enjoy walking along the Linden Avenue on the Princeton campus at this ti.

The early September sunlight would filter through the tall oak trees, casting on his shoulders, warding off the slight chill uniquely belonging to early autumn lingering in the air.

He could see the familiar Gothic buildings standing majestically, see students in groups of two or three scurrying around campus, enthusiastically discussing all the unknowns ahead.

In past years, from these ancient buildings and exuberant young people, he could read the profound historical sedintation and unique scholarly aura of Princeton.

But this year he didn’t have that feeling at all. He didn’t know when, but a scent of caral and vanilla had begun to perate the Princeton air.

Even though the school adheres to the “Drug-Free Campus Act”, not allowing anyone to possess or use all sorts of miscellaneous things on campus.

But everything subtly changed after recreational use of that item was legalized in New Jersey, where Princeton is located.

This made old-fashioned scholars like Lott Degen feel worried.

Stricter requirents an enormous pressure from studies for the students. Clearly, not all students can handle this pressure well.

But the ways of relieving stress made Lott Degen utterly loathe.

This year, Zhang Shuwen’s departure further compounded his displeasure. Even though he could understand Zhang Shuwen’s thoughts.

In Lott Degen’s view, although Zhang Shuwen might not be considered a top mathematician, he is undoubtedly a top mathematics educator.

This Huaxia descendant scholar possesses an extrely profound mathematical foundation, especially skilled in inspiring and nurturing students.

During his years at Princeton, not only did he participate in compiling excellent mathematics textbooks, but he also constructed a clear course system. Even with very strict demands on students, the students’ evaluations were still very high.

This says it all, yes, Zhang Shuwen has always been very adept at inspiring students.

So his departure left Lott Degen in a bad mood throughout this sumr.

Lott Degen had always wanted through Zhang Shuwen, to bring Qiao Yu to Princeton, but unexpectedly because of Qiao Yu, Zhang Shuwen chose to return to Huaxia.

Well, it’s a sad story.

Besides being tangled with these lost emotions, he also had to decide whether to visit Huaxia in mid-September, which is next week.

Lott Degen received an invitation from the Huaxia Yanbei International Mathematics Center to attend Qiao Yu’s lecture on September 15 Huaxia ti.

He still hadn’t decided whether to go.

On one hand, at the beginning of the sester, as an administrator of the School of Mathematics, he indeed had quite a lot of affairs; on the other hand, he had already extinguished the idea of having Qiao Yu co to Princeton for further study.

Moreover, he had never been to Huaxia, even though at the beginning of the 20th century, an International Mathematicians Conference was held in the Huaxia Capital, but at that ti he couldn’t attend because of other matters.

Even though information now isn’t as blocked as before, Lott Degen no longer thinks, like he used to, that Huaxia is a closed and backward country.

But one often feels so hesitation when first traveling to an unfamiliar country, especially for soone like Lott Degen, who is naturally inclined towards conservatism and not young in age.

The conflicted feelings made him feel even more depressed. Even though today’s weather in Princeton was great, with sunshine pervading.

Carrying a vexed mood, he walked into the office, where the secretary, as usual, brought him a steaming cup of coffee.

“Professor Degen, the weather is nice today.”

“Yes, I hope you have a pleasant day.”

“I hope so too, but it’s hard. You know, prices have soared so terribly now! I’m starting to doubt whether I’ll make it to my payday smoothly.”

Regarding this kind of complaint, Lott Degen had indeed heard it many tis.

Faced with this situation, he was also at a loss. If he were a board mber, perhaps he could suggest giving more pay to the school’s ordinary low-level employees, but unfortunately, he wasn’t.

So he could only comfort with a sowhat hollow phrase: “Everything will get better.”

“Hopefully so.”

Watching the secretary walk out of his office, Lott Degen’s mood further darkened.

Today he hadn’t heard any good news. Aside from the nice weather, there was hardly anything that could make him happy.

Sitting at his desk, after taking a sip of coffee, Lott Degen pressed down his not-so-pleasant mood and opened his computer.

The email notification indicated that soone he was following had sent a ssage, so Lott Degen put on his glasses, opened the email, and saw the pinned ssage in the system.

It was from the young talent he held in highest regard, Qiao Yu.

Yes, a long ti ago, Lott Degen had put Qiao Yu’s na in a specially cared-for slot in his email.

Lott Degen believed it wasn’t only him. Any responsible prominent editor of a renowned mathematical journal worldwide would probably do the sa.

So was it Qiao Yu personally inviting him to the mid-month talk?

With this thought, Lott Degen opened the email from Qiao Yu.

“Dear Professor Degen: Long ti no see, eting through letters.”

“Please allow to introduce to you the new advances in number theory at Yanbei University. My friend Yu Wei, along with his ntor Professor Chen Zhelun, has completed a very brilliant paper.”

“The title of the paper is ‘On the Reduction of the Pri Gap to 2 under the Modal Spectral Frawork.'”

“Yes, through their concerted efforts, the upper bound of pri number gaps was reduced to 2. Undoubtedly, this paper holds groundbreaking significance in the field of number theory research.”

“After studying this paper, I am convinced that its results and its original thodology fully et the high standards for frontier research of the Annals of Mathematics.”

“Given the deep friendship between you and , I strongly recomnded to the authors of the paper the Ann.Math, and they paid serious attention to my opinion and submitted the paper to you.”

“I personally greatly admire the collaborative spirit of Yu Wei and Professor Chen Zhelun. As a young mathematics student and my peer, Yu Wei has demonstrated profound understanding and application ability of Generalized Modal Theory.

While Professor Chen’s Algebraic Geotry background injected a new perspective into the entire research. They not only completed theoretical construction but also ensured the reliability of every step of the outcos through in-depth mathematical calculations and model verification.

I hope the Ann.Math under your leadership will take this paper seriously. Additionally, I plan to invite them to give so related presentations at the upcoming symposium. Finally, I wish good health and all the best to my friend.

Sincerely

Best regards

Your friend: Qiao Yu.”

Lott Degen read the letter back and forth twice.

Especially the sentence “As a young mathematics student and my peer, Yu Wei has demonstrated profound understanding and application ability of Generalized Modal Theory…”

Everything else was quite understandable, but he felt so difficulty in understanding this sentence.

Qiao Yu’s peer? aning about the sa age as Qiao Yu? Not even twenty?

So all the new generation of math geniuses went to Huaxia? If this is true, how favored by God Huaxia must be?

With this mindset, Lott Degen downloaded the paper…
