Wu Tong didn't know that during the time she submitted her manuscript, the editorial department of the Annals of Mathematics at Princeton had been working non-stop.
After seeing Wu Tong's paper and checking the formatting and other aspects, the review editor immediately reported it to the editor-in-chief. Boris, the editor-in-chief of Annals of Mathematics, is a good math expert. When verifying the paper, he also paid attention to Terence Tao's speech and immediately contacted other experts for review.
A series of processes were accelerated, and after receiving review and confirmation from authoritative experts, he immediately worked hard to secure an arrangement for a special issue.
Such heavy-weight content in the mathematics world, with clear and confirmed proof of its authenticity, was reported by the Annals of Mathematics, which established their authority. Wu Tong chose them and could not miss it.
This is also a gesture of goodwill to an emerging mathematics giant who has almost stepped half a foot into the field of the Fields Medal.
"Special issue?" Wu Tong wasn't familiar with this section, so she turned her head and asked Li Yisheng, who she thought was more knowledgeable. "Teacher Li, what is the special issue of the Mathematical Yearbook?"
She seemed to have heard of it somewhere.
"Special issue, a special issue of Annals of Mathematics that will be published because of special and significant achievements?" Li Yishen was so surprised that he couldn't help but raise his voice. He and Professor Cheng in the co-pilot seat looked at each other in surprise. They must have heard it right!
They could imagine that Wu Tong had another article published in an SCI zone 1 core journal, but they did not expect that after missing the normal publication time, the top journal, Annals of Mathematics, which has always been high and mighty, would actually publish a special issue exclusively for Wu Tong.
In less than half a year, he published two top journals, one of which was a special issue. This record can top the world record list! This achievement has surpassed them, even many professors and associate professors at Kyoto University...
This year's academic presentations at Peking University's School of Mathematics will be immensely honored by these two top-tier publications. If possible, Professor Li Yishengcheng would love to learn from Wu Tong the proper way to publish in top-tier journals.
Li Yisheng and Professor Cheng were surprised, and their surprise spread to other professors in the School of Mathematics at Peking University.
A special issue, a special special issue. Such an honor, who here would not be envious and proud!
After carefully explaining the honor of the special issue to Wu Tong, the meeting got down to business.
"Student Wu Tong, I have already communicated with the principal about the bonus. The one million bonus will be distributed soon, and the award ceremony will be arranged at the opening ceremony. Give me a few days, and I will arrange the move as soon as possible!" After being surprised, Pan Wenhua immediately made a decision.
"Kyoto University specially appoints you as a formal researcher at the Kyoto University Mathematical Research Center. You will enjoy the treatment of a formal researcher, effective from this month!" Professor Zhou Wenping added with a smile. He is the person in charge of the Kyoto University Mathematical Research Center here, and it is most appropriate for him to announce the news.
The Kyoto University Mathematical Research Center is not a place that ordinary students can enter. Even some lecturers cannot join as formal researchers without excellent grades.
Wu Tong is exactly not one of those words that can be constrained by words like "ordinary" or "common person". Her glory and honor can already support half of the School of Mathematics of Peking University. This year, Peking University is infinitely glorious because of Wu Tong.
"Dean, there's really no need for us to move. I understand your determination. Both the school dormitory and the house in Yanyuan are big enough for me to live in and study. There's really no need for you to move. I wouldn't be ashamed to move in if you did!" Wu Tong didn't take the joke seriously at first, but when he saw that Dean Pan Wenhua was really going to fulfill his promise, Wu Tong quickly dissuaded him.
Because of her, the dean, a teacher, had to move. The psychological pressure was too great, and her small shoulders couldn't bear it. She really couldn't bear it! How could a student force a teacher to move? This is disrespectful to the teacher and the ancestors!
"Haha... Dean, we all understand how you feel. You have lived in that house for many years. You can't let Wu Tong live in your old house, right? You should find the leaders and improve Wu Tong's housing benefits so that the child can live in a new house!" Professor Zhou Wenping suggested in a roundabout way with a smile.
The students were uneasy about the idea of the dean moving. However, Dean Pan was a man of his word, always keeping his word. He would always deliver on his promises, and this was something they all admired.
In that case, let's find a compromise. The previous accommodations at Yanyuan haven't kept pace with Wu Tong's progress, so it's time to improve them. Or perhaps the school could subsidize the property, with Wu Tong contributing a small portion of the funds to purchase the property, and granting it a designated property right. That way, if the child's family wants to come to Beijing to reunite with their child, wouldn't they have more freedom of residence?
Secondly, Wu Tong already owns property at Peking University, so it's only natural for him to stay there after graduation. Such a top scholar, already a leader in his field, would be a truly heartbreaking regret for Peking University if they let him go.
The reason why Huaqing University dares to compete with Peking University in mathematics is simply because the Qiu Chengtong Mathematical Center is located in Huaqing and has a Fields Medal winner in charge.
Wu Tong is only ten days away from turning seventeen, and she still has a long future ahead of her. She has already completed the proof of the two world conjectures in number theory. According to the current trend, who dares to say that she has no chance of stepping onto the Fields Medal podium? There are already rumors that Wu Tong is the Chinese who has the greatest chance of winning the Fields Medal, a Chinese citizen with true Chinese nationality.
At present, although there are Chinese who have won the Fields Medal, the Nobel Prize in mathematics, none of them are Chinese citizens.
As for the funds, it was originally a reward for Wu Tong and also an investment expected of Wu Tong by Peking University. Wu Tong did not need to bear too much, and with the accumulated bonuses from the past two times, Wu Tong did not have too much financial pressure.
In the end, the plan was finalized, and Pan Wenhua no longer insisted on moving. Although he was the head of the School of Mathematics at Peking University, the house he lived in was indeed an old house, and he could not force other people's children to live in their old house.
Wu Tong was awarded a 158-square-meter, three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment. This level of housing is already a privilege enjoyed by many of Peking University's top professors, even those at the rank of associate dean or above. This clearly demonstrates the importance Peking University places on Wu Tong. The bonus was used as housing allowance, and the property rights were registered in Wu Tong's name.
After Wu Tong enters the university, he can apply for research funding according to the standards of a full professor... various resources, various preferential treatments, and the focus of everything is to make sure that Wu Tong remains in Kyoto University and becomes a leading figure in Kyoto University.
After finishing the business, Pan Wenhua led the curious professors and asked, "Wu Tong, take a good rest during the summer vacation. After school starts, what are your plans for the next step? Will you continue to delve deeper into number theory? Is there anything you need help from the school?"
In the past six months, the school has received too much glory because of Wu Tong. To be honest, their contribution is almost zero except for the library resources and some limited public classroom resources.
I am almost ashamed to mention the rewards other children receive after proving a conjecture, as that is hindsight.
