Chapter 160: Outstanding Youth



"What we all do is laying bricks and building walls, adding tiles to the building of mathematics!" Zhou Wenping couldn't help laughing when he heard Wu Tong's humble description.

On the road of mathematics, some people just repeat the actions of their predecessors, while others use their own abilities to add bricks and tiles to the building of mathematics.

Wu Tong is obviously the one who adds bricks and tiles to lay a strong foundation for the building of mathematics.

"It's already very good. Take your time. Mathematics is a process of gradual improvement. Don't pay attention to some unnecessary comments on the Internet!" Pan Wenhua instructed carefully.

The internet has been buzzing lately about that scumbag. They're mainly worried that with so many young people online these days, Wu Tong might be harmed by the illegal online talk.

After all, there are always those who feel they can act with impunity online, launching vicious attacks on others. No matter how impressive Wu Tong's achievements are, she's still a child. As a teacher, besides overseeing her studies and research, we must also keep an eye on her mental health.

Psychological problems are a major preventive issue in the scientific research community.

"Online? I haven't been online much lately! I haven't paid much attention. Is there anything special going on?" Wu Tong has been so busy lately that he's practically kicking his head. His electronic gadgets have completely degenerated into mere communications and research. He even disconnects himself from the internet in confidential areas.

I really don’t have time to pay attention to what’s hot news on the Internet.

"No, no, it's not worth your time and attention!" Zhou Wenping said repeatedly. He and Pan Wenhua looked at each other and felt relieved at the same time. It was better that Wu Tong didn't see it. Now that time has passed, there is no need for him to know.

"Come on, Wu Tong, fill this out!" Pan Wenhua directly changed the subject, took out another important topic for today, and handed the folder to Wu Tong.

"National Outstanding Youth Program?" Is she already eligible to participate in the selection?

"This is a program prepared by the country to cultivate scientific research capabilities. Anyone who is capable can do it, regardless of age!" Zhou Wenping handed over a pen and let Wu Tong start filling out the information with confidence.

"Your achievements are worthy of this academic title. Don't hesitate to take it!!" Wu Tong met all seven criteria for the Young Elite Scientist award, save for the title. Anyone who meets two of the criteria should apply. How could they, the School of Mathematics, not be selected? Without Wu Tong, everyone else would have a hard time this year. No one could match his achievements this year!

The teachers and leaders are all helping her keep an eye on things.

In fact, they had proposed many of them without expecting approval, but unexpectedly, they were able to proceed with such success. They speculated that, in addition to Wu Tong's truly brilliant mathematical achievements, another possibility was that the confidential project Wu Tong had participated in while working for Cheng Lao had truly made a contribution to the country.

They all understood the confidentiality regulations, so they simply didn't ask too much. They would definitely be able to handle the treatment approved for Wu Tong.

After filling out the basic information, there's still a research project application. Research topic, Wu Tong paused, then decided to go with the Goldbach conjecture. It just so happened that as a loving family, we had completely completed the answer to Hibbert's eighth question, putting an end to this issue in the hands of the Chinese people.

"Goldbach's conjecture?" Pan and Zhou were surprised to see Wu Tong write. They had thought he would complete a phased study of the NS equations. Unexpectedly, Wu Tong would return to number theory.

This topic is indeed quite difficult! Is Wu Tong, the crown jewel of number theory, going to reach for the moon?

"Let's make this our goal. I'll produce some results as soon as possible. If all goes well, I should be able to catch up with my graduation project and use this as my thesis. Dean Pan, Professor Zhou, is this okay?"

"Of course, there is absolutely no problem. Even if the results are just interim results, they are enough for your graduation!" The two nodded firmly. It is more than enough for a doctoral graduation project, not to mention an undergraduate graduation project. Of course, there is no problem!

"Just tell us what help you need!" Wu Tong is willing to strive for the pinnacle of mathematics, and they will definitely provide every bit of help.

"If there's any literature on this subject, could Dean Pan and Professor Zhou recommend some to me? I need a broader perspective!" Wu Tong didn't hesitate to state her needs directly. The basic information in the library wasn't enough for her.

"No problem, we'll help you collect as many as we can. We've already applied for Mr. Jingrun's manuscript. The electronic manuscript will be sent to your email in two days. Please check it!"

Wu Tong definitely wouldn't go abroad for further studies, nor did he need to. Furthermore, since he was currently involved in a confidential project, going abroad was too risky. They had to find a way to bring back more research resources for Wu Tong.

"Congratulations today! You are the youngest winner of the Humboldt Prize and the Cole Prize in Number Theory!" He is also the youngest winner of the Ramanujan Medal and the youngest winner of the Chern Medal. They look forward to Wu Tong breaking the minimum age limit for more major mathematics awards.

After Wu Tong finished filling out all the information, the two teachers smiled and congratulated him. They couldn't be happier to receive this double piece of good news. The School of Mathematics at Peking University has once again become famous because of Wu Tong. Congratulatory messages were hung on the Peking University website and throughout the School of Mathematics...

However, Wu Tong was out at the time, keeping it a secret, so I was unable to celebrate the good news for Wu Tong in the first place.

"The M-country Mathematical Society's journal has published your paper. They're a monthly publication, so they're a bit faster. It's also one of the Big Four. The bonus will be deposited into your account in the middle of the month. The school has limited funds, so we can only give you a reward of 200,000 yuan. Don't think it's too little!"

With a multi-million dollar prize, given Wu Tong's research speed, Peking University's funding is a bit tight. Of course, even with the tight budget, they're still overjoyed. What university wouldn't be looking forward to brilliant research achievements one after another?

"Thank you, Dean Pan, for your trouble. This is enough. No special treatment is needed!" Wu Tong didn't intend to keep taking advantage of the school and treat it like an ATM. "If the school is short of funds, it's okay if they don't give me a bonus. What the school gave me before was already more than enough!"

She hadn't expected Kyoto University to be so generous. Before and after the start of the semester, she had already taken millions of dollars in scholarships from Kyoto University, which made her feel a little embarrassed. This was not her original intention in achieving those results.

"It's okay. It's okay. You can go ahead and do it. I was just joking. The school is both happy and sad. We're delighted! Giving you that little bonus won't cover your school's expenses!" Pan Wenhua quickly waved his hands. He was just joking out of habit. Don't let the child take it seriously! Peking University isn't in such a difficult situation that it can't afford to give students bonuses because their students are too outstanding!

If this gets out, the neighbors will laugh their heads off and even pay a huge sum of money to get into trouble. That would be terrible!
