At the same time that Su Qingyun received the "Annals of Mathematics", news about her was passed on.
Su Qingyun had been receiving attention from above for a long time, and after she won a prize in a mathematics competition, she received even more attention from above.
Her daily routine, the books she reads, and the people she comes into contact with are all monitored by someone and reported to the higher-ups.
Although it seems that Su Qingyun has nothing to do now, the arrangements for talents like Su Qingyun are still under discussion.
Domestic mail and parcel inspections are very strict, not to mention mail sent abroad, which is even more carefully inspected. Any sensitive words or objects may bring disaster.
The higher-ups noticed her first letter abroad. After discovering that the address was to the editorial office of the Annals of Mathematics, they began to speculate that she might have achieved some new research results in mathematics.
This speculation excited many people and they watched Su Qingyun's movements more closely. Shortly after she received the sample issue, this issue of "Mathematical Annals" was also placed on the desk of the leader above.
"Old Feng, look at this matter, Yun is really doing great things quietly. If we hadn't noticed her every move, we might still be kept in the dark about this matter."
In the office of an important leader in Beijing, a middle-aged man with half of his hair turning white sighed.
Sitting opposite him was Director Feng of the Beijing Research Institute.
Director Feng was also surprised. "I didn't expect that in such a short time, this girl would have made new research results in the field of mathematics, and we were the last to know about it."
Director Feng did not expect that although Su Qingyun had returned to the village, she was still doing things that caused a sensation in the mathematics world.
His thoughts involuntarily fell on the book on the table. The Riemann hypothesis, a world-class conjecture that countless mathematicians want to conquer, she had actually calculated half of it. Although it has not been truly proven successfully, the establishment of this interim proof has already shown that her idea is correct.
Perhaps, proving the Riemann hypothesis is just a matter of time.
"Riemann hypothesis, Riemann hypothesis." The leader repeated it twice and then said with emotion, "Young people nowadays are really amazing."
"Do you know what the foreign media think of Su Qingyun?"
"how?"
"Foreign media are saying that Su Qingyun is a talented young woman who has come to save Chinese mathematics, and that she is a mathematical genius that China rarely sees in a century."
Director Feng smiled and said, "Aren't these all good things?"
"Those are the kind words. There are also some sarcastic ones." At this point, the leader's face turned a little irritated. "Do you know what some people from Country A say?"
"They said it was a tragedy for a genius like Su Qingyun to be born in China. We would bury her talent, and they felt sorry for her."
"Some media outlets also suggested that we let Su Qingyun leave and let her go abroad to receive the best education and have a better future.
"What's even more ridiculous is that some ignorant media outlets in Country H actually said they wanted to investigate Su Qingyun's background to see if her ancestors were from Country H. Bah, fuck them!"
When the topic got exciting, the leader started swearing. This leader was a retired battlefield veteran in his early years and had a rather hot temper, which Director Feng was already used to.
Director Feng smiled, but he wasn't angry. "Leader, these people are just saying these things out of jealousy. There's no need to be so angry. Talented people like Su Qingyun were born in China. It's certainly a blessing for China."
"They say these things only because they can't get what they want, so they say things that only serve to irritate us."
"Humph, I know what the media says, but it doesn't matter." The leader calmed down. "But I'm afraid some people abroad might have some interest in her."
What he said was suggestive, and Director Feng naturally understood what he meant. Over the years, most of the talents that emerged in their China were recruited from abroad.
For ordinary talents, they might give up if they fail to recruit them, but for talents like Su Qingyun, it is hard to imagine what they would do if they couldn't get him.
So they must be alert and be vigilant against the infiltration and small actions of these forces.
"People have been sent to protect Su Qingyun."
Director Feng nodded. "That's as it should be. Su Qingyun's family lives in a remote village. It's difficult for outsiders to infiltrate. We don't need to worry too much."
The leader's worried expression remained. "We're in the village now, but what about later? She can't stay there forever."
"To be honest, the higher-ups have been discussing how to plan Su Qingyun's future. Some say she's already accomplished a lot and want her to join the research institute to participate in various projects. Others say she's still young and should stay in university for a few more years to further her education. There's even a small group who support sending her abroad to study. Of course, she'd have to be protected by our people at all times, but the risk is still too great, so this proposal has been rejected."
"Now there are probably two groups. One wants her to go straight to work, and the other wants her to continue studying. I don't know how long the argument will end?" The leader sighed.
Director Feng frowned upon hearing this. "The higher-ups have been arguing for so long without any conclusion. Why don't they ask her for her opinion?"
The leader was stunned.
Director Feng continued, "Based on my understanding of Su Qingyun, although she's young, she's very opinionated and mature in her thinking. Her mindset is nothing like that of a teenager. She has her own plans for the future, and I personally don't think she's someone who would follow other people's instructions."
"If we interfere too much in her life and future, I'm afraid it will backfire."
After hearing his words, the leader fell into deep thought.
After a long while, he finally said, "I understand everything you said. I will report it to the higher-ups and let them consider it comprehensively."
"Okay, thank you, leader."
"It's all about talent and national development, so of course we have to find a way that everyone can accept."
The leader smiled and said that they valued talents like Su Qingyun very much and would try their best to meet her conditions and requirements.
As for where Su Qingyun's future will go? At this point in time, it seems that no one knows.
But only Su Qingyun knew that she was waiting for that day to come.
