Chapter 170 Chapter 170 [Winning Award]
Lin Yimu looked at the familiar-looking boys and girls gathered in front of him, and sized them up with some confusion. "Classmates, what can I do for you?"
The people who surrounded Lin Yi Mu all smiled gossipyly when they heard Lin Yi Mu's question. One of the boys came up to Lin Yi Mu and gossiped slyly.
"Student Lin Yimu, can I ask you a question?" Without waiting for Lin Yimu to answer, he asked directly: "Was the person who came to pick you up yesterday your brother? Does your family really have a strong backing? The car your brother drove yesterday was so cool!"
Lin Yimu listened to what the boy said, opened his mouth and was about to explain when he was interrupted by questions from other people who were watching nearby.
"Really? Really? Was the man who came to pick up Lin Yimu yesterday really your brother? He looks really handsome. Can you introduce him to me?" One of the bright-looking girls among the crowd asked excitedly.
After the girl finished speaking, the other girls around her looked at Lin Yimu with curiosity and excitement, waiting for his answer.
When the boys heard the girls' questions, they ignored them as if they were used to it, but they didn't give them a good look either. Instead, they pulled Lin Yimu aside and continued to curiously ask about his family background and the car that He Xiuji drove that day.
Lin Yi Mu was annoyed by these people. It was as if there were hundreds of ducks quacking in his ears. The questions they asked one after another left Lin Yi Mu with no chance to speak.
Finally, Lin Yimu couldn't stand the noisy atmosphere anymore and shouted, "Stop, stop, stop! Be quiet!"
Hearing Lin Yi Mu's slightly angry voice, the group of people who had gathered around to ask questions suddenly quieted down, and they all looked at Lin Yi Mu eagerly.
"I'm telling you guys, I have things to do in the lab, and I don't have time to waste with you guys. Instead of spending your time gossiping, you might as well study more and enrich yourself. You can become excellent and have everything you want, so why waste your own and others' time on such meaningless things?"
Lin Yimu's words were also his true thoughts. He was very busy every day. Ever since the two of them had a chat after 001 recovered his energy, Lin Yimu knew that he didn't have that much time. Just like 001 said, the main system had fallen into a deep sleep to recover energy in preparation for leaving the earth. In other words, after he completed the two three-year missions issued by the system, it was very likely that the system would leave.
He has no time to waste now. He needs to learn unlimited knowledge in a limited time and enrich himself as much as possible so that he will not be in a hurry when he leaves the system in the future. So he doesn't want to waste time on such things. Otherwise, he would not have run back to school after spending one night with He Xiuji, but would have stayed with him.
After Lin Yimu finished saying those words, he didn't care what the people around him thought. Before they could react, he turned around and walked towards the laboratory.
After Lin Yi Mu's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, the people who had been lectured looked at each other for a long time. After they reacted, they felt a little unhappy in their hearts, but when they turned around to look for Lin Yi Mu, they didn't see anyone.
In the end, they could only leave the place with unhappy expressions and complaints. Even those girls who had high self-esteem left while saying bad things about Lin Yimu to each other.
As for Lin Yimu, after arriving at the laboratory, he immersed himself in the experiment and didn't pay any attention to the outside world. So when he was still in the laboratory, his mobile phone kept flashing until the phone ran out of battery and turned off.
Just when Lin Yimu was obsessed with the experiment, the official website of the Chern Mathematical Society in China released a message and tagged Lin Yimu, which also made those who had been paying attention to this award this year notice it at the first time.
There have been many different opinions on the reasons why the selection of this year's Chern Prize in Mathematics was postponed. Now that the list of candidates has finally been announced, the name of Lin Yimu at the top is very conspicuous.
I believe that everyone who has access to the Internet knows the name Lin Yimu. Now that they see his name on the list, how can they not understand the reason why this year's awards have been postponed? However, even though they have some guesses in their hearts, people still somewhat don't believe it. After all, this kind of thing has never happened before, so some people tentatively asked cautiously on Weibo.
[By the way, this year's award selection was postponed, isn't it because of Lin Yimu? After all, the incident involving Lin Yimu was known to the entire internet, and now that it has just been resolved not long ago you have released a list of candidates. It is really weird no matter how you think about it. 】
This netizen originally just asked tentatively and didn't expect to get a reply, but a short while later, the official Weibo account answered his question.
[What you said is actually not wrong, because the judges have a lot of controversy about whether Lin Yimu's paper was written by himself, and this controversy has not been well resolved, so it has been delayed until now, but fortunately our persistence was not wrong. 】
After seeing the official explanation, many people felt a little uncomfortable. After all, even the usually fair jury had a dispute because of Lin Yimu and even postponed the selection time. This kind of preferential treatment made people feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Even though we know that Lin Yimu is indeed excellent, this kind of blatant favoritism and privilege still makes people very uncomfortable.
However, there are also some people who don't care and admire Lin Yimu very much. These people either don't have any ideas or just flatter Lin Yimu.
Not long after the news was announced, many people already knew about it. Students in the school were also shocked by the news, but they soon came to their senses and looked as if they were used to it.
After all, anyone who knew what achievements this monster had made in the past two years, what mathematical conjectures he had cracked, how much bonus he had won, and more than just in the field of mathematics, would not have had such big emotional fluctuations... No way!
Everyone who knew the news kept comforting themselves in their hearts, but no matter what, they were still very envious. No matter how nicely they said it or how indifferent they were, it couldn't resist the feeling of powerlessness in their hearts and the admiration they felt from the bottom of their hearts for Lin Yimu, this evil genius.
So, after everyone in Peking University knew the news, Lin Yimu, the person involved, was still unaware of the news because he had muted his phone while staying in the laboratory.
Even Professor Jiang and He Xiuji, who got the news and wanted to inform Lin Yimu, were unable to let Lin Yimu know in the first place because no one answered Lin Yimu's phone and the phone was even turned off. When Lin Yimu came out of the laboratory, he was stared at with strange eyes by every student he met. He felt extremely uncomfortable.
As for why He Xiuji knew this, of course he made a special effort to find out after he started dating Lin Yimu, especially after he knew about Lin Yimu's trending search physique, he would occasionally use his Weibo account, which had been overgrown with posts, to search for news about Lin Yimu, so he knew about the news that Lin Yimu became a candidate for the Chern Prize in Mathematics at the first opportunity.

Lin Yimu came out of the laboratory, feeling the gazes of classmates from all directions on the campus, and frowned uncomfortably. He thought that he couldn't continue his experiment today anyway, and the courses for several elective subjects he had taken had ended for today, so he planned to go back directly.
Ignoring the glances from all around, Lin Yimu walked all the way to the school gate. He took out his cell phone and was about to call He Xiuji to ask if he had gotten off work, but he discovered that his phone was out of battery.
Lin Yimu tried to turn on his phone with an embarrassed look, but found that it wouldn't open at all. He could only sigh helplessly and put the phone back into his pocket. Thinking about what happened today, it was really bad luck to go out.
Sighing in his heart, Lin Yimu, who had no way to contact anyone, could only return to his residence.
After returning home, Lin Yimu went to charge his mobile phone. As soon as he plugged it in and turned it on, the screen of the phone showed more than 20 missed calls.
Lin Yimu looked at so many missed calls and blinked in surprise. He didn't know who called him and why so many calls came at once. Could his phone run out of battery because of so many missed calls?
Muttering to himself, Lin Yimu opened his phone immediately. When he saw that the twenty or so calls were from Professor Jiang and He Xiuji, Lin Yimu was a little confused.
"Why are there so many calls at once? I don't know what's urgent." Lin Yimu muttered to himself, but still called both of them back.
Lin Yi Mu called Professor Jiang back first. The person on the other end picked up the phone the moment the call was made. During the conversation with Professor Jiang, Lin Yi Mu also found out why everyone looked at him strangely when he came out of the laboratory today.
To be precise, it was not a strange look in their eyes, but more of curiosity and disbelief. After all, even if they knew that Lin Yi Mu was very good, as long as he did not win an award in a certain field, they could still secretly comfort themselves in their hearts. But now that Lin Yi Mu had clearly become a candidate for the Chern Prize in Mathematics, it was a foregone conclusion that he would win the award without any unexpected event. The award organizer even postponed the award ceremony for him.
Of course, Lin Yimu felt that it must be because the judges had too many disagreements, and he was just an inexplicable scapegoat.
Although his mind was in a mess, Lin Yimu did not miss a word from Professor Jiang, responding from time to time, and finally agreed to go to the award ceremony.
Originally thinking that the matter was over, Lin Yimu was ready for Professor Jiang to hang up the phone, but who knew that Professor Jiang suddenly changed the subject and gave him an even more important piece of news, which made Lin Yimu freeze in place, his eyes filled with joy and disbelief.
