Chapter 171 Chapter 171 [(Bug Fix) Another one...
"Don't hang up the phone so quickly. I have good news for you. Just one day before the Chern Mathematics Award was presented, the Mathematical Research Center received another piece of good news. The Chern Mathematics Award Jury that you applied for also sent a message that you have become one of the candidates for this year's award. We hope you can attend this year's Mathematicians' Congress. Although you are one of the candidates, it is also because of the previous incident that the judges are still a little arguing about your paper, but since the notice has been sent, I think there will be basically no major changes."
“Moreover, even if I don’t win the prize in the end, attending a mathematician conference is also a way to gain knowledge and experience.”
Professor Jiang told Lin Yimu the news he had just received in a calm tone but with an expression of happiness that could not be concealed.
Lin Yimu was also stunned when he heard this, but he was immediately filled with excitement, joy and disbelief.
After a long while, Lin Yimu finally came back to his senses. He tried to calm his tone, but he could still hear the excitement in his words, "Professor, are you telling the truth? I, I really have a good chance of winning the Chern Prize? But I haven't received any news at all?"
Professor Jiang listened to the excited words of the student opposite him. He was not angry at the doubt in his tone. Instead, he was very pleased and happy because of Lin Yimu's efforts.
At the beginning of this year, the Mathematical Research Center reported all of Lin Yi Mu's mathematical research results. No matter whether it was the Chern Prize, the Gauss Prize or the Fields Medal, they submitted materials as long as it was related to mathematics. They even submitted materials for domestic mathematics awards. It's just that because of the uproar caused by Lin Yi Mu's false accusation, they all thought that Lin Yi Mu had no chance to participate in the award selection this year. They didn't expect that there would be a sudden turn of events in the end.
Although for unknown reasons only the domestic Chern Mathematics Award has given clear news and the international Chern Prize has sent an invitation, this is also a big surprise for them.
And don't forget, Lin Yi Mu just turned 18 this year. He has won such an award and achievement now, and he will definitely win the Fields Medal in the future. It is just a matter of time. This is also the common idea of several professors who have taught and witnessed Lin Yi Mu's uncanny talent in science, and even affirmed this idea after receiving letters from the two judging committees.
"Since I said it was good news, you must have received the letter and invitation notice. As for why you didn't receive the news, it's because they sent the news to Director Jia of the Mathematical Research Center in advance. After all, you are also a researcher at the Mathematical Research Center, and you will definitely go to the Mathematician's Conference in October with the people from the Mathematical Research Center." Professor Jiang explained the reason to Lin Yimu.
After listening to this, Lin Yimu nodded in understanding, but he still couldn't hide his excitement. After all, this was the Chern Prize. He also studied mathematics and had more or less known about it. The Chern Prize is one of the most credible awards recognized internationally, and he was competing with mathematicians from all over the world.
Together with the Chern Prize, there will also be the Fields Medal, known as the Nobel Prize in mathematics. This means that he has finally stepped onto the world stage.
Lin Yimu was even more excited than when he heard that he had won the Chern Prize in Mathematics. It's not that Lin Yimu didn't care about this award, but compared to the award that can only be given to nationals of Country Z, the Chern Prize, which is open to mathematicians from all over the world, is indeed more competitive.
Although Lin Yimu knew that he was amazing for solving two mathematical conjectures, he had never thought that he would win an international mathematics award at such a young age. How could he not be excited?
Lin Yimu's thoughts were in a mess, but he finally sighed and said that he still had to admit that compared to awards that can only be given to compatriots, he still cares more about awards that have the best credibility in the world. This will not only allow him to discuss and communicate with more people, but also prove his own knowledge. Although there is systematic help, it is more of the result of his own hard work.
In a short period of time, Lin Yi's thoughts turned around a thousand times, but in the end he suppressed all the thoughts in his mind and said to Professor Jiang on the other end of the phone: "Thank you, Professor. When is the International Congress of Mathematicians in October? Do I need to make any preparations?"
When Professor Jiang heard Lin Yimu asking about the International Congress of Mathematicians, he said in a good mood, "The International Congress of Mathematicians is an international conference for mathematicians to exchange mathematics, demonstrate and discuss the development of mathematics, meet old friends and make new friends. As for you award winners, you only need to prepare questions related to your award-winning research paper and the questions that may be asked after your speech. There is nothing else to prepare."
After talking about the things that need to be paid attention to in academics, Professor Jiang thought for a while and then made arrangements with concern: "However, the time is not fixed because each session is held in a different country. This year's Mathematician Conference is held in the capital of Country H. It is scheduled for the second day of National Day and lasts for nine days. You may need to bring a few more clothes. Also, remember to explain it clearly to your family members, don't let them worry."
Lin Yimu listened to the professor's instructions, nodded from time to time, and wrote down the points that needed attention. After that, the two talked for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yimu's suppressed excitement slowly showed on his face. He was so happy that he had a silly smile on his face. He couldn't help but walk around the room several times before calming himself down.
After calming down, Lin Yimu patted his face which was somewhat stiff from smiling, took a look at the things he had written down that needed attention, then put the papers away and planned to call He Xiuji. After all, he accounted for most of the calls today, and he didn't know what urgent matter was.
However, after Lin Yimu dialed the number, no one answered the call for a long time.
Lin Yimu glanced at the time in confusion. It was already past six in the afternoon. He had just talked to Professor Jiang on the phone for almost half an hour. Logically, He Xiuji should have been back by this time.
Just when Lin Yimu was about to call again in confusion, he suddenly heard the sound of a cell phone ringing at the door. He walked quickly to the door in surprise, opened the door and saw him about to reach out to open the door.
"You're back, come in quickly, I have good news to tell you!" The moment Lin Yimu saw He Xiuji, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face and he pulled him into the house.
He Xiuji chuckled softly and dotingly, followed Lin Yimu into the house, changed his shoes at the entrance, put down the documents he had brought back, and then asked with a smile: "Is it about what happened on Weibo today? Congratulations to our Xiaomu for winning the Chern Prize in Mathematics. I am proud of you."
As he spoke, He Xiuji took out the gift he had prepared to congratulate Lin Yimu from his pocket and gently placed it in Lin Yimu's hand.
When Lin Yimu heard what He Xiuji said, his smile got bigger. When he saw that He Xiuji had specially prepared a gift for him, he looked at him in surprise and said, "So you came back late today because you bought me a gift. What's in the box?"
Lin Yimu looked at the exquisitely wrapped small gift box in his hand, weighed it carefully and guessed what was inside.
"Mr. He, given the size and weight of this thing, could it be a ring?" Lin Yimu looked at He Xiuji with suspicion, and unconsciously there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.
He Xiuji stretched out his hand and ruffled his hair with a smile in his eyes, saying: "You will know if you open it and take a look. There is no need to guess here."
Lin Yimu glanced at the man in front of him. He couldn't tell anything from his expression, so he could only obediently open the gift slowly.
When Lin Yimu opened the gift box and saw the red velvet box inside, a hint of understanding and a joy that he himself was not aware of flashed in his eyes.
Opening the last layer of boxes in his hand, Lin Yimu saw a pair of men's rings lying quietly side by side inside. He looked up at He Xiuji and said, "Please help me put them on." Then he handed the box to the other party, his eyes full of expectation.
He Xiuji looked at his lover opposite with tenderness in his eyes. They stared at each other face to face for a while, with a smile on their lips. He Xiuji took out the smaller diamond ring in the box and slowly put it on Lin Yimu's finger with a steady hand.
After putting on the ring, Lin Yimu took out another one with a smile on his face and put it on He Xiuji. After that, the two of them held their hands tightly with the rings on them and smiled at each other. The atmosphere was warm and sweet.
After a long while, Lin Yimu broke away from the happy atmosphere, and thought of what he wanted to say to He Xiuji, so he immediately pursed his lips and said seriously: "There is one more thing I haven't told you."
Seeing his lover's serious expression, He Xiuji also looked at Lin Yimu seriously, waiting for him to speak.
"Not only did I win the domestic Chern Mathematics Award, I was also nominated for the international Chern Award. At the end of September, I will go to the capital of Country H with professors from the Mathematical Research Center to attend this year's International Congress of Mathematicians. The Chern Award will also be awarded at the conference, which will last for nine days." Lin Yimu said seriously about his upcoming arrangements.
When He Xiuji heard Lin Yimu's words, the serious expression on his face slowly melted into a happy smile, and he said to Lin Yimu: "My Xiaomu is amazing. He was able to participate in the International Congress of Mathematicians at such a young age, and was also nominated for the Chern Award. Congratulations, Xiaomu, you are my pride." Then he reached out and hugged Lin Yimu.
Lin Yimu originally thought that since they had just started living together, He Xiuji would be a little unhappy to hear that he would be away for nine days. Unexpectedly, he was simply happy and proud of his winning the award.
"I will always make you proud of me." Lin Yimu smiled with emotion and hugged He Xiuji back. After a long while, Lin Yimu said in a low voice, "But I can't bear to leave you."
When He Xiuji heard Lin Yimu's reluctant words, his heart was filled with joy and bright flowers bloomed. The reluctance that he had suppressed surged out, and he said in a low voice in Lin Yimu's ear: "I can't bear to part with you, but I know that my little Mu is an eagle in the sky. He should soar proudly in the sky and shine brightly for everyone to see."
"Thank you, Mr. He. I'm really happy. You are my pride. In my eyes, Mr. He is also a soaring eagle in the sky, shining brightly. In fact, I was attracted to you the first time I saw you, Mr. He." Lin Yimu responded in a low voice with a blushing face and some shyness.
The two hugged each other for a while with a throbbing heart, until Lin Yimu's stomach growled with hunger. He Xiuji smiled and let him go to the kitchen to cook dinner.
