Mr. Wang and Mr. Zheng are old friends. They are both of a certain age and mostly eat soft and easy-to-digest food. They suffer from eating things that are too cold and hard to digest. They are not bad for their health!
Alcohol was even forbidden by the health doctor, so at the beginning of the banquet, I had a small drink from a small cup, the kind with a rim about the size of two fingernails.
Although they are already quite old, the two elders still have sharp eyesight and hearing, and clear thinking, just like in their youth. Moreover, their knowledge and learning will only increase with age, becoming more profound and experienced, making them well-deserved guardians of the mountain!
At this moment, the two of them had almost finished their work, and they looked at Wu Tong with a smile. For them, they had tried their best for the country, and now they could see the successors of the country, who were so young and so capable. This was enough for their lives!
Wu Tong's seat was right next to the two elders. At the end of the banquet, when Wu Tong had finished his meal, the two elders couldn't help but talk to Wu Tong in a gentle voice.
"Professor Wu, what interesting topics are you researching recently?" Mr. Zheng asked curiously. With Wu Tong's academic level in mathematics, she has already reached the top position in the world. The topic she is researching must also be the most cutting-edge scientific research in the world.
"Mr. Zheng, Mr. Wang, you can just call me by my name. Just call me Wu Tong! I've been brushing up on number theory lately, and also studying algebraic geometry! And by the way, I've also been doing some research on materials!" She couldn't bear the thought of two highly respected elders addressing her as professor. Wu Tong was always patient with her elders, answering every question they asked.
These were matters that could be shared with the outside world, and Wu Tong hadn't concealed anything from the two elders. Given their authority, if it weren't for the many gossips here, Wu Tong wouldn't have minded sharing the details of her recent research goals.
"Materials is also a very interesting section." Mr. Zheng nodded in agreement. Oftentimes, their research is also based on the advancement of materials. This is the focus of the basic research section. Wu Tong is interested in this, which is a very good direction.
Although conducting two different research directions simultaneously is generally difficult, let alone conducting two interdisciplinary research projects simultaneously, for many people it is unheard of and impossible. However, for Wu Tong, this is just a daily routine.
Especially at their table, they can be said to represent the country's top scientific research in recent years. However, they ask themselves, they can only do research in two directions at most, and cannot do interdisciplinary research in multiple directions.
But now it's Wu Tong, who won the first prize of the National Natural Science Award at the age of eighteen. In doing such a thing, he is studying mathematics and materials science at the same time, fighting on two fronts and in two directions. They don't have to worry that people like Wu Tong will be too ambitious, mess around, and fail to achieve their goals, so they just try hard!
As the two elders and the youngster interacted, their communication became increasingly in-depth. Wu Tong had dabbled in both explosives and radar, which were the areas the elders excelled in, thanks to his missile research. Although he wasn't as in-depth, he had no problem communicating with the elders on a basic level.
In addition, Wu Tong has a strong ability to learn and understand. When the topic is taken in depth, Wu Tong can quickly draw inferences from the two elders' stories and even gain a deep understanding. Just in this simple communication, the two elders can feel Wu Tong's rapid growth and mastery.
These two fields are the careers they have devoted their entire lives to. They can keenly perceive every little change in Wu Tong. Such a terrifying learning ability makes the two elders deeply understand the reason why Wu Tong can achieve such great achievements at such a young age.
Such ability can be regarded as a blessing to China!
The three of them chatted as if no one was around, their voices were not loud, but the other first prize winners at the same table could definitely hear it. If they could vaguely understand what the two old people and one child were talking about at the beginning, then in a moment, they might have felt carsick and were confused and had no idea what was going on.
If it was because of the issues in the section they were covering, but among them, Wu Tong, the youngest and a mathematician, was able to communicate with the two elders. In some brief descriptions, it was obvious that Wu Tong was talking and the two elders were listening!
But looking at the two elders' expressions of deep thought, clear eyes, and even applause, it is enough to prove that Wu Tong's narration and the views he put forward are very constructive!
Such a disparity made one smile bitterly! They had only heard of Wu Tong's talent before, but now, they could truly experience it!
There really is no comparison between people! Back then, and even now, they were all admired by others, praised as geniuses. However, compared to this young, top scholar, their so-called geniuses were nothing more than ordinary people!
Therefore, they don't need to be too self-righteous just because they won the award. As long as Wu Tong is not overly proud, they can be happy, but they have no right to be proud!
·········
After the state banquet, Wu Tong personally escorted the two elders out and handed them over to the accompanying staff. The two elders said goodbye to Wu Tong with a smile. They had already exchanged addresses and phone numbers with Wu Tong and sincerely invited Wu Tong to visit them often when he was free.
Wu Tong nodded in agreement, watching the two elders leave in an orderly manner, carefully arranged by the accompanying staff. At the same time, Wu Tong also said goodbye to her teacher. Before the scholars eager to gather around her to make friends with her could actually make a move, Wu Tong reunited with Cai Yi and An Wenshu, who had come to pick her up, and quickly passed through the security checkpoint and boarded the special car that had come to pick her up.
Wu Tong had always arranged for a private car for travel, and the car was especially secretive, with modified bulletproof and peek-proof glass windows. Even in Beijing in February, the cold outside was still as chilly as ever. The car had been preheated to a comfortable temperature, and the seats were heated, adjusted to the desired temperature. Once seated, the warmth enveloped them, dispelling the chill.
However, Wu Tong still chose to open the car window slightly, feeling the cool breeze outside to clear her mind. At the banquet just now, even though the banquet hall was spacious, there were still quite a few people, and the noise and clamor made her feel a little dizzy. She needed a little cool stimulation to make her mind clearer and more active, so that she could sort out the inspiration she had just gained from communicating with the two elders.
For Wu Tong, both the explosives section and the radar section are within the scope of her current research on missile optimization.
