It was not until nearly 1 p.m. that all the questions came to an end. Many more people still had questions, but it was not a good idea to delay the completion of the report meeting because of their personal delays.
Feynman stood up and spoke on behalf of the big guys in the front row:
"Let us congratulate Wu Tong for successfully proving and solving the Navier-Stokes equation in this century. Professor Wu, on behalf of the Cray Institute, I solemnly invite you to visit the Cray Institute to receive the Millennium Problems Prize. If you are unable to travel, please have someone collect it on your behalf. The award ceremony has been prepared and arranged, and we only need your confirmation of the time!"
In the year 2000, the Clay Mathematics Institute published seven difficult mathematical problems and offered a reward for their solutions. It said that whoever could solve one of them would receive a reward of one million dollars. Therefore, the Millennium Problem has another popular name, the "Millennium Grand Prize Problem"!
Andrew Wiles, Edward Witten... these internationally renowned top scholars who are also involved in this cause also cast their eyes towards Wu Tong with smiles and expectations.
"Thank you, Professor Feynman, and thank you all my seniors. I'm sorry that I have important work and admissions arrangements in the near future and cannot travel. I will discuss with the school leaders, confirm the time, and arrange for representatives to attend!" Going abroad has been a troublesome and dangerous thing since Wu Tong came into contact with so many important secrets. Wu Tong did not plan to go abroad unless it was necessary.
If it weren't for the sincere invitation from these seniors, Wu Tong wouldn't have even thought of this award. However, since this award exists, even if she doesn't need it, Jingda does. Since it can be collected on her behalf, then Jingda should arrange for someone to collect it on her behalf!
One million Mi Yuan, at the current exchange rate, represents six or seven million RMB! Taking the prize money from across the sea and supporting the education of impoverished students in the country is a good thing, isn't it? There's no need to be aloof in this regard!
"No problem!" Feynman wasn't surprised by the result. Wu Tong was now a national treasure-level mathematician, and it was easy for mathematicians to translate their knowledge into applied fields. Wu Tong had undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention, and Sinochem had undoubtedly imposed certain travel restrictions to ensure his safety.
He didn't particularly care whether Wu Tong personally accepted the award. What mattered to him was the director of the Cray Institute, who had been preparing for years and finally had the opportunity to present the award. He was eager to present the award and bolster the Cray Institute's reputation. If that old man hadn't insisted on accepting the award on the spot, he would have brought it directly and presented it to Wu Tong on such a grand occasion, saving himself the trouble!
"Let us all enjoy the victory champagne and celebrate the great progress of mathematics!"
Later, the organizers of Shangjing held a celebration banquet, and his words also marked the end of this report meeting.
This was Wu Tong's stage for glory, not a place for scholars to seek his advice. It was time to end it! If one had to find fault with Wu Tong, it would be that he lacked the rebelliousness and pride of a genius and was too approachable.
The big guys in the front row and all the attendees stood up and applauded again after Feynman's words. Wu Tong bowed and walked off the stage. Several doors in the conference hall opened and the staff began to guide the attendees to leave in an orderly manner.
When Wu Tong stepped out of the conference hall, major domestic and foreign media outlets that were not allowed to enter the venue crowded to the steps, surrounded Wu Tong eagerly, and invited him to interview them.
"Hello, Professor Wu, I'm a reporter from the BBC..."
"...Please accept the interview from The Times!"
"Professor Wu, what are your results? Have you passed the approval of many mathematicians around the world? Does the general solution to the Millennium Problem Navier-Stokes equation exist and is it smooth?"
"Professor Wu..."
"Oh my God, oh my God, can we shake hands and take a photo together?" Farther away, outside the safety isolation line, tourists who were unable to enter the venue and came here to wait for the show to end and see Wu Tong couldn't help but shout enthusiastically!
The crowd of cameras and long guns gathered excitedly towards Wu Tong. The undercover investigators in the Great Hall and the security personnel responsible for protecting Wu Tong reacted immediately, and joined hands to form a human wall in an instant to block the increasingly excited reporters from rushing forward. Who knows if there are any dangerous elements here?
Even if safety is still guaranteed, if they rush forward in such excitement, and if they push Wu Tong down the stairs, it will be a bigger accident, which must not be allowed!
Wu Tong was also a little surprised by the lively scene. Seeing the excited crowd, there were so many people that she couldn't help but worry about whether a stampede would happen.
In addition to cooperating with security personnel, Wu Tong gently bowed to the crowd, thanking them for their love and for having traveled thousands of miles to see her. She raised her voice as high as she could, reminding them, "Thank you all for coming. Please be careful and avoid crowding!"
"My God asks everyone to pay attention to safety. Gentlemen, please be polite and orderly. We cannot bring shame to China and Beijing!" Immediately, the knowledgeable people in the front row, after hearing Wu Tong's instructions and reminders, began to raise their voices and organize themselves. More and more people joined in, and the excited atmosphere at the scene was relieved. The crowd made way for Wu Tong to get on the bus smoothly.
After Wu Tong left, the attendees left in an orderly manner, guided by the organizers and venue security personnel. They were very cooperative. Seeing Wu Tong in person and hearing his instructions in person made them feel that their visit was truly worthwhile!
Compared to those entertainment stars who are evasive and even try to stir up the atmosphere to prove their so-called charm, Wu Tong's first priority is to pay attention to their safety. Such a top scholar cares about ordinary people so much and does not have the slightest bit of arrogance of a genius. They are really moved!
They didn't fall in love with the wrong person. She is the well-deserved national girl and the national pride!
At the celebration banquet, Feynman and others once again advocated: "Wu, as you Chinese people say, meeting is fate. The last seminar was so satisfying. Let's take this opportunity to launch another seminar. The time is tomorrow... Oh, the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow is your National Day, right? I remember correctly? During your National Day, the military parade was great and very shocking!"
"Yes, Mr. Feynman, tomorrow is the 62nd anniversary of our great motherland. Thank you for your compliment. I'm very proud. Our warriors are truly amazing!" Wu Tong nodded, accepting the invitation. She felt that the opportunity to interact with such leading scholars, especially those in various fields, would be extremely rewarding.
