Chapter 104 Refresh

The opening ceremony is over. If we were to say who was the most shining star today, besides the seven winners of several major awards, it would be Wu Tong. The infinite praise from the president of the International Mathematical Union at the International Congress of Mathematicians.

Mathematicians from all over the world have truly realized that this talented girl who has almost secured the Fields Prize, Wu Tong, is known internationally, and her three major conjectures are her best medals.

Almost all the capable mathematicians, after the conference, immediately logged on to the ICM official website to download and read Wu Tong’s keynote speech at the conference.

The clear and obvious theme once again brought a shocking impact to mathematicians from all over the world. Just a few days later, after the twin prime conjecture, the Polignac conjecture was also officially solved by her?

"It's nice to meet you, young girl, Ms. Wu Tong!" Lavas, President of the International Mathematical Union, and John Bowles, President of the International Congress of Mathematicians, greeted Wu Tong with a smile. The word "Madam" was a sign of equal respect for Wu Tong.

They felt that calling Wu Tong MISS was too frivolous.

"Hello, Chairman Lavas, Professor Powers!"

After greeting each other, Powers smiled and told Wu Tong: "Forgive me, because of your amazing success, your report time will be temporarily adjusted to a one-hour report at 2 pm three days later, in Conference Hall 1, so that everyone can listen to your wonderful report in more detail!"

"Thank you for your trouble and care!" Wu Tong expressed her gratitude amid the excitement of all the teachers and leaders. She was also filled with joy in her heart. This was an unexpected honor for her.

After sending off the two leaders who came to meet Wu Tong, Zhou Wenping and Li Yisheng excitedly bumped fists, remembering to be gentle and pat Wu Tong's shoulder. This is their palm pearl, not those thick-skinned and thick-limbed brats with only stupid strength.

Adjusting forty-five minutes to one hour is a qualitative change.

The International Congress of Mathematicians is an open and collaborative platform. In addition to the ten-minute lectures for general scholars, any participating scholar can apply to join the group of their interest. It is a fun event that anyone can participate in.

There is a big difference between a 45-minute report and an hour-long report. If the 45-minute report is given by internationally renowned scholars, reporting on their achievements or new developments, then the one-hour report will only be given by internationally renowned or even top-level leaders, or special talents with high-quality and outstanding contributions, and only they will be invited to attend high-quality lectures.

At each Congress of Estimated Mathematicians, there are 160 45-minute lectures divided into different groups, and only 20 people are invited to give one-hour lectures. This is an unprecedented honor.

"Congratulations, Wu Tong, congratulations!" Xu Chenyang, Professor Zhang Shouwu and other scholars he had just met, Academician Shen, President of the Chinese Mathematical Society, Professor Peng of Lu University... all congratulated Wu Tong.

Wu Tong has taken a step towards the glory of reaching the top, which is the pride of the Chinese people.

Shen Yuehua made a deep note of Wu Tong's matter in his heart, and he would intensify the discussion after returning home. Wu Tong has already started with the Ramanujan Award in the international arena, and various subsequent awards are inevitable. However, up to now, Wu Tong has not been awarded any award in China. Isn't this a joke to the international community!

For such a special genius, the domestic culture of seniority-based promotion is most unacceptable.

Of course, even if he didn't mention it, the group of people at Peking University who are protecting their children have already started to work. In the domestic mathematics community, the School of Mathematics at Peking University is still very influential. It's no wonder that Peking University is so active. It's really that their children's performance is extremely amazing and deserves many domestic awards!

Those awards were given to this child, not because of this child's glory, but because of Wu Tong! The future of Chinese mathematics still depends on these young people. As the president of the Chinese Mathematical Society, it is his responsibility to take the initiative to add icing on the cake.

"Looking forward to your lecture in three days!" Before leaving, Terence Tao and others smiled and gave a thumbs up in anticipation.

The Ramanujan Prize is a good start. They have all won it before when they were older than Wu Tong. Wu Tong has set a new record for the youngest age to win this award. In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, the youngest age to win any award in the mathematics world may be broken one by one by this little girl.

After greeting several top experts whom he had just greeted and getting to know the new winner of the Philippine Medal, Wu Tong was able to return to the hotel with his teacher.

The welcome dinner from 6 to 8 p.m. was naturally very lively. Wu Tong got to know many top scholars from home and abroad on this platform. The superficial exchanges produced many sparks of collision of ideas, which made Wu Tong look forward to the round-robin report meeting that will officially start tomorrow.

On the second day, Zhou Wenping arranged for Li Yishen to accompany Wu Tong, and the Chinese participants split into several groups, each attending the lectures in the direction of their interest. These lectures can be said to be the sharing of the most cutting-edge results in various fields of mathematics, and the authors of the results themselves personally explained them. This is a rare learning opportunity. Many of them are at their own expense, or are sent by the school to study at public expense.

If you don't put more effort into it, wouldn't it be a waste of the hard-earned opportunities? If you gain more, you will summarize your experience and maybe publish some good domestic journals. These are all resumes.

Many people were happy but also sad. After all, not everyone could be like that genius classmate who could solve world problems one after another and shock the world. Any boundaries could only be broken in front of her, and many people would think ahead for her.

They still need to accumulate and enrich their resumes little by little on their own, which is necessary for promotion.

Number theory, algebraic geometry, partial differential equations, dynamical systems and ordinary differential equations, mathematical physics... This International Congress of Mathematicians has a total of twenty groups, and each group has wonderful presentations. Nearly two hundred presentations are enough to dazzle those who don't know how to distinguish them.

Wu Tong obviously did have a clear goal. It was obviously unrealistic to greedily want to listen to all the reports, as there were time conflicts between different groups.

She researched the topics that interested her in advance, and after excluding the history of mathematics and sections that she didn't need urgently at the moment, she made a full plan.

"Teacher Li, you can choose the sections you like to listen to. I will be at the venue and will not go anywhere else. You don't have to follow me all the time!" Wu Tong and Li Yisheng suggested that she and Teacher Li did not have many overlapping report sections, so there was no need for Teacher Li to waste his time for her. Teacher Li was also here to learn, so don't waste the opportunity because of her.
