The next day, Qiao Yu began to participate in the forum’s mathematician activities normally.
The only change was that another inseparable person appeared by his side—Zheng Xiweng.
However, this did not cause any trouble for others.
After all, for many mathematicians, Zheng Xiweng was also a familiar face. Not long ago, when Qiao Yu went to the International Mathematicians Conference, Zheng Xiweng had always followed him as an academic assistant.
He had already beco familiar with many people.
To be honest, even though Zheng Xiweng is in his forties, he still looks quite presentable. He carries a natural air of elegance.
At least when not in action, you really can’t see any fierce aura in him, nothing like the typical bold appearance of security personnel. So, he’s quite deceptive.
Qiao Yu actually didn’t care if others could see Zheng Xiweng’s true identity. But having similar temperants had its advantages.
When others were engaging in conversations with Qiao Yu, they wouldn’t have any apprehensions because Zheng Xiweng was by the side.
Just like that, a day passed quickly.
Qiao Yu spent most of his ti wandering about various small halls. Don’t underestimate this two-day math forum; it’s actually very high-end.
The scholars invited to present were mostly world-renowned big shots, mathematicians and physicists who have won various prestigious awards.
Of course, there were also outstanding students and professors from Yanbei and Huaqing Universities like Yu Wei and Xue Song, who made presentations at the conference, garnering so prestige.
Don’t underestimate the reports given in small conference halls at such school-hosted etings.
In fact, it’s already a great honor.
After all, not everyone could compare with Qiao Yu, who could show his face at various etings whenever, enjoying star-like treatnt.
For many relatively ordinary mathematicians, gaining prestige in the international mathematics community starts with these twenty or forty-minute reports.
Even being able to present at such events is already an honor.
More mathematicians have to fund their report sessions to gain prestige, and these sessions often fail to attract decent guests, which is the norm.
This phenonon has beco a norm in the academic world, not limited to mathematics. Almost all young researchers across disciplines face the sa.
The world has reached a stage where competition is all-encompassing. Overnight success is reserved for a select few.
Gaining fa in a small circle is already quite an achievent, much like Xue Song before...
The biggest advantage for Huaxia’s mathematicians is Qiao Yu’s Generalized Modal Axiomatic System gaining deep-rooted recognition.
So as long as local professors cover related topics, there’s never a lack of audience, with foreign scholars being the primary attendees.
Of course, the sa goes for renowned foreign professors; their sessions also have a good attendance, mainly Huaxia scholars and students...
It’s not to say Huaxia’s mathematicians still idolize foreign elents. It’s mainly the distance that makes communication difficult. It’s simpler to discuss among compatriots.
Qiao Yu also shuttled between the various report halls, standing by and discussing so technical details with people, repeatedly rejecting various invitations...
Yes, if yesterday it was mainly representatives of large corporations offering olive branches, then today it’s many universities and research institutes sincerely inviting him to give talks.
Previously, these invitations were turned down by Tian Yan Zhen and Elder Yuan on his behalf.
The reason was valid.
Since Qiao Yu belongs to both Yanbei and Huaqing, which are the only two super universities in Huaxia, he hadn’t even held a report at his own school, so why go elsewhere?
Without a doubt, this reason was powerful, and everyone tactfully understood.
But now that his first talk after receiving the Fields dal had been completed, various invitations naturally ca flooding in.
At this point, it’s inappropriate to continue using his ntor and Elder Yuan as shields.
After all, that would seem too domineering of his sect. Fortunately, Qiao Yu was well-prepared for this.
Why does he like Zheng Xiweng? Precisely because at this mont, his "assistant" can be of great use.
He doesn’t even need to speak and offend anyone, not even needing to speak at all.
Whenever soone offers him an invitation, Zheng Xiweng would tily remind him of the many important research tasks ahead.
All Qiao Yu needed to do was apologize with a regretful face, politely adding, "Once I’m free, I’ll definitely co for a talk" to handle the situation.
He discussed this with Zheng Xiweng early in the morning. From Qiao Yu’s perspective, this was a clear win-win situation.
After all, whenever he goes out, it ans an increase in workload for Zheng Xiweng, causing trouble for everyone.
The most important thing is, although Zheng Xiweng is nominally his research assistant, he has no ties to the academic world, so offending people didn’t matter.
Zheng Xiweng completely agreed with Qiao Yu’s approach and implented it thoroughly.
Anyway, Old Zheng truly didn’t care about offending academic big shots. Even if it were an Academician, it didn’t matter...
It’s been known since ancient tis that a scholar and a soldier find it hard to communicate. With him, it’s naturally no different.
Not to ntion, from Zheng Xiweng’s perspective, flying all over the country for talks is clearly less important than Qiao Yu settling down at Yanbei University for upcoming research.
He was even quite happy that Qiao Yu thought the sa, making their cooperation extrely seamless.
The outco was great, and indeed angered quite a few big shots.
Among them, so weren’t fully aware of the situation, having focused their main efforts elsewhere. They even inquired about the identity of this newly erged research assistant and why he showed no respect.
