Chapter 178 Chapter 178 [Each with their own thoughts]
As for He Xiuji, he originally came here to discuss cooperation, and the cooperation project was about medical devices, but he didn't expect the other party to suddenly change his mind.
He had originally planned to give up. Anyway, his pharmaceutical company was not in a hurry now, so he thought of taking this time as a vacation to accompany Xiaomu.
On the way back to the room, he was still planning to accompany Xiaomu to attend the Mathematicians' Conference in the next few days. However, just as he received the clothes he bought for Xiaomu today, he was interrupted by a call from his subordinate. Matters of the domestic company were still waiting for him to resolve, so he could only pack up his things reluctantly, and his face was so cold that it could freeze when he left.
However, no matter how bad his mood was, He Xiuji did not forget to send a message to Lin Yimu, informing him that he had something urgent to deal with when he returned to China.
After sending the message, He Xiuji checked his phone from time to time in the waiting room to see if Lin Yimu had replied, but he didn't get a reply until he got on the plane.
At this time, Lin Yimu had finished his speech and was sitting in the audience listening carefully to other bigwigs explaining their respective project topics. His mobile phone, which had been muted out of courtesy, vibrated slightly in his pocket, but Lin Yimu didn't notice it at all through his coat.
It was not until Lin Yimu returned to the hotel with Professor Jiang after attending the afternoon lecture that he came back to his senses from the ocean of knowledge. Thinking of He Xiuji, who had been ignored by him for the entire afternoon, he took out his cell phone with a guilty conscience and planned to call him.
As soon as I turned on my phone, I saw the message He Xiuji sent me a few hours ago.
[Xiao Mu, I have some things to deal with in my company, so I will go back home first. I left a set of clothes I bought for you at the front desk, remember to pick it up. I'll take the rest back for you and put them in the house we live in, so they can also fill out your wardrobe. 】
After reading the message, Lin Yimu sighed in disappointment, but he also knew that the other party was taking a break from his busy schedule by coming to Country H to accompany him for a few hours. Such a busy life is the normal daily routine of the president of a large company.
Although several hours had passed, Lin Yimu still sent a message back, asking He Xiuji not to just focus on work, but also to get enough rest and take care of his health.
After replying the message, Lin Yimu didn't expect He Xiuji to reply immediately. After all, they were both busy people.
Putting away his phone and suppressing the slight sense of loss in his heart, Lin Yimu remembered what He Xiuji said in the message about bringing the clothes he bought for him back home to fill his wardrobe. He thought about He Xiuji tidying up his room at home with a sullen face, and couldn't help but smile.
"Xiao Mu, what are you laughing at? You look so happy?" When Lin Yi Mu was in a trance, Fang Wenduan, who was in the same room with him, saw him and couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Being called back to his senses, Lin Yimu put away the smile on his face and said, "Nothing, I just chatted with someone." Then he changed the subject and said, "Brother, it's getting late now, do you want to go downstairs to eat? I'll pick up some clothes from the front desk when I come back later."
Fang Wenduan smiled and nodded in agreement, "We are going to have dinner. I was just planning to call you. Come on, let's go and call Lao Qian to have dinner together. By the way, we can also discuss the topic we heard this afternoon."
The two of them walked out of the room talking and laughing, and called Qian Shixun who lived next door.
On the way to the restaurant, the three of them kept discussing some math topics they had heard today, as well as Lin Yimu's mathematical conjecture. Fang Wenduan and Qian Shixun would sigh from time to time, saying that Lin Yimu was so smart that he didn't seem like a normal person.
Listening to the two people's sighs, Lin Yimu was able to remain calm. After all, he knew the situation best.
The three of them arrived at the door of the restaurant and were about to go in when they looked up and saw the other three companions. Lin Yimu and the other two greeted them normally, while the other three nodded at them with awkward expressions and did not speak again.
Lin Yimu and the other two didn't care about their attitudes. After arriving at the restaurant, they selected their favorite meals and sat down in a place with few people. They continued their discussion while eating.
The people from other countries who came to attend the Mathematicians' Conference were all older people, and some of them were the same age as Fang Wenduan and others, who were brought by their mentors to broaden their horizons. When they saw that the people from Country Z seemed to be having a dispute, they just sat far away and watched the show. No one planned to come up and communicate with them.
In fact, the few people discovered this situation as soon as they entered the restaurant. In other places, people gathered in groups of three or four to discuss things. Even people from different countries gathered together to discuss things. Only in Country Z, no one from other countries came to discuss with them. There was even a vague feeling of being excluded.
It is precisely for this reason that although Lin Yimu and his companions felt a little uncomfortable getting along with each other because of Lin Yimu's love affair, no more conflicts arose, so as to avoid being laughed at by outsiders.
As for why they were treated like this by people from other countries, the reason was actually because of Lin Yimu.
Since Lin Yimu was reborn, he has solved two millennium mathematical problems in just two years. This is a project that countless mathematicians around the world are studying. In itself, this is nothing, and everyone will just sigh and call him a monster or a genius.
However, Lin Yimu was not only extremely talented in mathematics, but he had also published in SCI journals in physics and chemistry. Each of his research topics perfectly hit the research targets of those researchers who were currently studying for their master's or doctoral degrees or even had no achievements. However, their research speed was not as fast as Lin Yimu's.
This meant that every time when they were still working all night long without any progress, Lin Yimu had already published the final results, which meant that they could no longer continue their research and their years of hard work went down the drain. How could such a situation not make them feel sad?
Therefore, after knowing that Lin Yimu would also attend the conference, some researchers from several countries with whom he had good relations began to intentionally or unintentionally exclude the researchers from Country Z. Under such circumstances, the researchers who originally wanted to interact with Lin Yimu subconsciously did not step forward out of herd mentality.
So at this mathematicians' exchange conference, apart from having some exchanges with Professor Jiang and those real industry giants, Lin Yimu and his friends just got together to discuss with each other, and most of the time it was Lin Yimu who answered everyone's questions.
During this period, because of this exclusion, the other three people who were originally a little uncomfortable with Lin Yimu's sexual orientation gradually let go of their discomfort and began to join Lin Yimu's team.
During the nine days of the Mathematicians' Congress, after Lin Yimu and his colleagues realized that they were being excluded by researchers from other countries, they never talked to anyone except during meals. Every day they followed Professor Jiang and listened to the professors and scholars discuss topics and projects that could be announced to the outside world.
At first, Professor Jiang didn't understand why they didn't hang out with people of their own age, but instead came to join in the fun with a group of old guys. But when he noticed how Lin Yimu and the others got along with the others, he no longer asked them to find others to communicate.
But on the way back to the hotel, he said to Lin Yimu, who was attending the conference for the first time, "Don't take it to heart. Although knowledge knows no borders, scientists do. Not every mathematician conference is so joyful. As long as you gain something from the conference, that's fine."
What's more, every country wants talents, especially a genius like Lin Yimu, who is the object of competition among various countries.
If you want to poach people, you will definitely have to pay more. Money, fame and fortune are secondary. What is more important is the resources and project funds that are beneficial to personal research, which are what every researcher is fighting for.
One more person means one more competitive edge. If Lin Yimu is poached, although the country or institution can gain a talent, or even countless patents and wealth, those will not fall into the hands of other researchers. They will just have one more competitor, and even the allocation of resources will be less.
This is what those researchers really think. After all, they have not reached the level of Professor Jiang and his colleagues, so they see things differently.
Of course, Professor Jiang did not explain these words to Lin Yimu, but Lin Yimu also deduced a lot from the statement that scientists have national boundaries.
From then on until the closing ceremony the next day of the conference, Lin Yimu and his friends calmly followed Professor Jiang and communicated with a group of mathematics masters. Even though Lin Yimu had not yet come across some of the problems they discussed, he could roughly understand them after reviewing them at night. On the second day, he could almost keep up with everyone's thinking. Sometimes, when Professor Jiang asked questions, he could answer them.
Seeing Lin Yimu's situation, the other mathematics professors were envious and jealous of Professor Jiang. They all lamented that they were not so lucky to have such a student. When they returned to the hotel and saw their own students, they were even more disgusted no matter how they looked at them. Many of them wanted to poach them.
Therefore, after the closing ceremony on the last day of the conference, when Lin Yi Mu and his companions said goodbye to Professor Jiang and everyone else, they received no less than five invitation letters, all of which earnestly hoped that Lin Yi Mu could study in their country and school, that he could do a direct doctorate under them, and that some would even give Lin Yi Mu the opportunity to work at the Institute for Advanced Study.
However, Lin Yimu just took a look at the invitation letter and put it in the suitcase.
Fang Wenduan, who was also packing his luggage, saw this and sighed, "Comparing people makes you die, and comparing goods makes you throw them away! We all came together to attend a mathematicians' conference. We left the same way we came, but you are different. You received several invitations from famous schools and famous teachers, but you just put them in the bottom of your box."
After sighing, seeing that Lin Yimu's expression didn't change, he asked curiously, "I say, are you really not moved at all? That's one of the top five famous schools in the world, a place where so many people can't get in even if they try their best. How come you don't have any emotions at all?"
Hearing this, Lin Yimu stopped packing his luggage and said helplessly, "It's not that I don't have emotions, but I don't plan to study abroad, so I'm just happy for a while and then it's over."
"Ah? You have such good conditions, but you have never thought about studying abroad? In previous years, many students with good grades tried their best to apply for an admission invitation, but you don't even go when it's right at your doorstep?" Fang Wenduan asked in surprise.
What he said is actually not wrong. Many people subconsciously think that studying abroad is the best way out and that they can receive a better education, so they all try their best to get an invitation letter from a famous foreign university.
In fact, it is not wrong to think so. Even in later generations, many people have such ideas, and it can even be said to be true. It’s just that Lin Yimu’s situation is different from everyone else. The knowledge he has learned has far exceeded that of many well-known scholars. In the future, as long as he digests all the knowledge in his mind, surpassing the most advanced knowledge in the current M country will not be a problem at all.
Therefore, Lin Yimu felt that studying abroad was totally unnecessary, and might even bring him trouble. After all, he had not forgotten Researcher Fried of the M Country's Institute for Advanced Studies and their Propaganda Minister.
Lin Yimu's mind was full of thoughts, but he did not directly answer Fang Wenduan's question. Instead, he said seriously, "I don't think our Peking University is any worse than theirs. I think it's pretty good to study at Peking University now."
Hearing Lin Yimu's serious words, Fang Wenduan was a little unconvinced, but he didn't say anything else. After all, he was also a student of Beijing University, and he was afraid that Lin Yimu would misunderstand if he said too much, so he nodded in agreement, "That's true. Our Beijing University is no worse than other schools, and with your current learning progress, it doesn't seem to make any difference where you go."
The two chatted while packing their luggage, and after packing, they pulled their suitcases to the lounge area next to the hotel lobby to gather.
Everyone headed to the airport. While waiting for the plane, Lin Yimu sent a message to He Xiuji, telling him that he would be returning home today.
After a while, Lin Yimu's cell phone vibrated, but before he could open it to check, he was urged to get on the plane, so he had to give up.
