The next morning, Ye Yi and Yang Zhu arrived at the Great Hall of the People early.
Today will be the last day Ye Yi and Yang Zhuyi stay at Peking University; they will leave this afternoon.
There were significantly fewer people in the venue today than yesterday, since the main event today was the defense of Professor Ma's academic work.
Most people are neither capable nor qualified to question Mr. Ma, so in order not to waste time, many people from other provinces have already chosen to leave.
Upon arriving at his seat in the venue, Ye Yi immediately focused his attention on Klose.
His brows were always furrowed, as if he was facing some difficult problem.
However, Ye Yi's attention was quickly diverted from Klose.
Because Mr. Ma had already come to the stage and engaged in verbal exchanges with many bigwigs.
And so Ye Yi continued to absorb the knowledge of these people.
By noon, after everyone had finished their Q&A session, all the leading figures in the scientific community had endorsed Professor Ma's new academic work.
The entire venue erupted in thunderous applause.
Meanwhile, the live stream chat was filled with a flurry of comments, most of which were congratulating Professor Ma on his academic success.
In the afternoon, Ye Yi got into Yang Zhuyi's car again, preparing to go home.
As for why I didn't go to become Master Yang's disciple, it's because Master Yang is currently very busy. As the host, he has to make arrangements for everyone.
At the same time, there are preparations for Friday's secret meeting, so there is absolutely no time right now.
Ye Yi understood this, so he didn't bother Old Yang.
On the bus, Yang Zhu asked the first question.
"So, do you have any thoughts on this year's math Olympiad?"
"Yes, this was truly an eye-opening experience. It was the first time I'd seen so many math enthusiasts, and I learned a lot myself," Ye Yi said without hesitation.
Hearing Ye Yi's tone, Yang Zhu was secretly delighted and continued to ask questions.
"Have you ever considered applying to study mathematics?"
"Old Yang, are you trying to seduce me into studying math?" Ye Yi suddenly realized and said.
“How can you say that? I just think your talent should be used in scientific research,” Yang Zhuyi immediately said.
"Actually, I also find math quite interesting."
"That's good then. Since you like it and have the talent, then go and study math."
"Ahem, Lao Yang, don't be in such a hurry. I was just saying that I'm quite interested in both mathematics and literature," Ye Yi said with a grin.
"You... never mind, I personally hope you go into math." Yang Zhu was about to say something, but suddenly stopped. She could only weakly express her opinion.
Ye Yi knew that Yang Zhu was afraid of his maternal grandfather, so he didn't say much.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Ye Yi and Yang Zhuyi arrived at the High School Affiliated to Peking University.
Yang Zhu said after Ye Yi got out of the car.
"You don't need to go to school tomorrow; I've already asked for leave for you. But remember to come next Monday."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yi's eyes lit up. For students, what is the happiest thing? Of course, it's being on vacation.
"Thank you, Lao Yang."
"You deserve this. After all, you must have put in a lot of effort for this math Olympiad exam. By the way, the school will probably let you share your thoughts next Monday, so get ready."
"Okay, I understand."
The two then greeted each other and parted ways.
Ye Yi dragged his tired body back to his room. He had barely lain down for a short while when he reluctantly answered his phone.
"Hello, who is it?" Ye Yi didn't look at the caller ID.
"It's me, Chen Xiongyang," came the voice from the other end of the phone.
"Ah, Xiongda, what's wrong?" Ye Yi asked, somewhat confused.
"Your 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' has been printed, with a print run of 1 million copies. The publisher is very optimistic about it, so they started promoting it early on. I wanted to ask if you are free next Monday? We could hold a book signing event to generate buzz."
Ye Yi frowned slightly at this, then asked hesitantly.
"Does it have to be Monday? Can't it be on the weekend?"
"It's possible, but the publicity won't be as high as on Monday, since you just won a national math Olympiad championship," Chen Xiongyang said calmly.
"Alright, let's put it for next weekend then, Xiongda. I have faith in the quality of this book," Ye Yi said.
Ye Yi was very clear about the quality of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so he did not think it needed special promotion.
"Okay, then you can promote it on your Weibo. After all, you have a million followers now," Chen Xiongyang suggested again.
"Okay, I understand," Ye Yi replied with a smile.
"Okay, then I won't bother you anymore. I know you just got home, so get some rest."
"Okay, bye-bye."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Yi immediately opened his Sina Weibo account and posted a new update.
"Next Monday, October 13th, my new book, 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes,' will be released, bringing you a brand new martial arts experience."
Ye Yi then thought about it again and posted a new update.
"What is a chivalrous hero? Is it someone who is carefree and unrestrained, with a sword and a horse? Is it someone who is full of passion and fights for justice? Let's see what 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' has to say about chivalry."
Shortly after it was posted, various comments appeared below.
"First floor, this question should be... What's going on? Aren't we doing math problems today? *doge*"
"Wow, this brings back so many memories! The great writer Ye has finally released a new book? So touching! .jpg"
"Just a quick rant: isn't this supposed to be the blog of the math Olympiad champion? Why has it been turned into an ad? (Confused.jpg)"
"You guys are still too young. An author who can't do math isn't a qualified high school student. *doge emoji*"
"Fine, whatever, let's give it our support. Consider it a reward for Ye Shen's problem-solving."
+1.
Ye Yi's Weibo account has never bought any fake followers, so these millions of followers are all real, which is why the discussion about them is very heated.
In the blink of an eye, the topic of Ye Yi releasing his new book "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" became a trending topic.
Along with this, the bet between Ye Yi and Yuanshan also became a trending topic.
After all, Yuanshan is a veteran master of martial arts novels, and he has a considerable number of fans who are willing to pay for his works.
That's why its popularity kept growing.
Ye Yi, however, didn't care about all that. After posting the update, he opened his writing software and began his writing career.
After all, Ye Yi was also afraid of growing red hair all over his body.
During the few days of Ye Yi's math competition, he didn't neglect his novel writing at all, because Ye Yi's typing speed was extremely fast.
The manuscript had been prepared well in advance, so the book club was quite calm, if the millions of dollars in rewards weren't considered a big deal.
