Chapter 407 The Youngest Winner of the Fields Medal in Mathematics
Next, other mathematics awards were announced. The winner of the Nevanlinna Prize is a mathematician from the United States who has made important contributions to quantum computing.
Finally, it was time to present the Fields Medal in Mathematics.
Although Su Yi did not expect to win such a big award, she felt it was a great honor to have her name appear on the big screen alongside mathematicians from other countries.
There are four winners of this year's Fields Medal in Mathematics: from the United States, Australia, Germany, and the last one is from China.
Chairman Drott looked at the list, a bright and surprised smile on his face. "This Chinese Fields Medalist is a name that surprised me. But after learning about her contributions and achievements in mathematics, I feel that she deserves this award. I want to keep you in suspense for now and talk about the important achievements we have made in the field of mathematics some time ago..."
Su Yi's heartbeat inexplicably quickened, and he had a vague premonition that was about to emerge.
Everyone was looking forward to Chairman Drott's announcement of the final name.
"Next, let us welcome the youngest winner of the Fields Medal in Mathematics since its inception—Gu Suyi from China!"
That moment.
Su Yi felt that his heart had stopped beating and his breathing had stagnated!
She widened her eyes and looked at her photo that appeared on the large projection screen on the podium, and next to it were her achievements over the years, even the full score she got when she participated in the IMO was listed.
Before coming, Jian Chuan had specifically learned about the international influence of this award, so when she heard the name, she was stunned.
It turned out to be Gu Suyi!
A beam of light fell on Su Yi, and the big screen showed her with her eyes wide open in disbelief.
But even so, it is still so beautiful and stunning.
"Yi Yi, don't just stand there, go up on stage and receive your award." Zhang Yuan next to her couldn't help but push her gently, unable to suppress the smile on his face.
Su Yi came to his senses and stood up.
She was wearing a cheongsam today, which was an agreement among those who came to attend the conference. At every International Congress of Mathematicians, men wore Tang suits or Zhongshan suits, and women wore cheongsams.
Firstly, it not only reflects their identity as Chinese, but also serves to promote China's history and culture.
As one of the four ancient civilizations, China is also the only ancient civilization that has not been submerged in the long river of history. China has a history of about 5,000 years, and the development of clothing and makeup is also varied, until the rise of cheongsam after the Republic of China.
Since then, cheongsam has become the traditional dress of Chinese women recognized by the world. It can perfectly show the beauty of Chinese women's figure, and when paired with exquisite makeup, the charm of oriental women is fully displayed.
Su Yi was wearing a light red cheongsam and walked to the podium with a swaying figure. Her long hair was tied up today and inserted with a jade hairpin. This hairpin was specially bought by Chen Rou at an auction as a gift for her daughter-in-law.
She stood on the podium, and countless cameras were focused on this beautiful and talented Chinese genius.
The flashbulbs were flashing like crazy.
Although he was very excited, even when he received the golden medal representing the honor of the Fields Medal in Mathematics, Su Yi still felt a little unreal.
But when it came to giving her acceptance speech, Su Yi still tried to calm herself down. After all, it was not her first time in front of so many people, and her past experience prevented her from stuttering or doing anything embarrassing.
"Winning the Fields Medal in Mathematics was something I never expected. I am thrilled and happy, and I am very grateful to all the judges for their recognition. I also sincerely thank my motherland for nurturing me, my teacher Professor Zhang Yuan for his training, and my parents, my husband, and my friends for their continued support..."
After Su Yi finished her acceptance speech, everyone stood up from their seats, applauded and congratulated her, and many people were genuinely happy for her.
As the youngest award-winning mathematician, Su Yi's achievements are well deserved.
Su Yi bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle to the audience. When she raised her head again, her eyes were red. She was trying hard to hold back her tears.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she last cried.
But today, she really couldn't help it.
She raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and stood for a photo with other award-winning mathematicians, with a bright and happy smile on her face.
Brilliant light, stunning everyone——
This news was almost immediately transmitted back to China.
This good news was even released directly by the official!
And in the list of award-winning mathematicians, the name Gu Suyi suddenly appeared in the public eye!
Not only that, even photos of receiving the award were sent back to the country!
The entire Weibo was boiling!
[Oh my god! I don’t have the words to describe how I feel right now!]
[As a poor math student, I can only admire Sister Yi. Holy shit, this is the youngest winner of the Fields Medal since its inception!!!]
[Those haters who said Yijie would never win the award, please stand up!]
[Ahhhhhhhhh! Crazy, really crazy!!!]
…
The entire Weibo was in an uproar.
