Chapter 165 The gift the world gives us

Fans finally found a reason to comfort themselves. If this person is not a Buddhist, how can others live?

Therefore, it doesn’t matter if it starts broadcasting at 6 o’clock in the morning without notice or pre-heating, as long as you are happy; it’s up to you whether you don’t do commercials or endorsements, I know you feel sorry for the three melons and two dates in the fans’ pockets...

but!

Goddess Yan, please don’t go back and inherit the family property. Don’t abandon us, we can’t bear to leave you!

This is the latest Weibo posted by Yan Fuguang in the morning. It has been pinned to the top by the host of Chaohua. There are thousands of comments below, which shows how many people’s thoughts are expressed.

In fact, fans are not only worried that Yan Fuguang is too rich to bother struggling, but the upcoming International Congress of Mathematicians is also a source of worry for them.

Others are worried that their brothers and sisters cannot keep up with their resources, but Yan Fuguang's fans are worried that their idol has too many side jobs, and they are afraid that one day she will give up her career.

This year, thanks to the presence of Yan Fuguang, the Fields Medal suddenly became very popular in China.

No matter how powerful the Philippine Prize is, after all, it is too niche, and mathematics is too far away from ordinary people's lives. If Yan Fuguang hadn't forcefully attracted a wave of attention, not many people would have cared about this four-year Nobel Prize in mathematics.

new york, manhattan

Columbia University is particularly lively today, with many passers-by discussing the upcoming International Congress of Mathematicians.

Whether the Fields Medal, founded in 1936, will have its first winner under the age of twenty, the answer will be revealed at today's opening ceremony.

Zhang Qifeng hurried to the Low Memorial Library, where the opening ceremony was held.

As a Chinese, he has been looking forward to this day for a long time. Since the establishment of the Philippine Awards, there have only been two Chinese winners. If Yan Fuguang can really stand on the podium today, she will be the first Chinese to win this honor.

As a PhD student in the Department of Mathematics at Columbia University, and as someone who has studied mathematics for more than ten years, he has no other words to describe his excitement at this moment except for his utmost admiration and admiration for such a talented mathematician who can crack the song guessing game.

Of course, curiosity is inevitable. After all, Yan Fuguang is so young and is said to be a big star.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the auditorium was already packed with people, mathematicians and mathematicians from all over the world talking and laughing.

But many people's topics are inseparable from one person. This person makes this year's Fields Medal so special.

Yan Fuguang, Qian Mingli and several professors from Hudan sat together. After all, students from Hudan were nominated, so there were many people from Hudan this time.

And on this occasion, no matter where Yan Fuguang sat, she couldn't keep a low profile. The reason was that she looked so different from everyone else present.

In less than half an hour, dozens of people they didn't know had come over to say hello. Of course, it was mainly Qian Mingli and the others who knew them, and Yan Fuguang had never met any of them.

In fact, she had considered coming to the scene before. After all, winning the award was not her original intention. But as soon as she revealed this idea to Qian Mingli, the old man's panting appearance made her swallow back the second half of the sentence.

Forget it, just come. Anyway, I was originally going to attend the auction, so it was just a drop-in to Columbia University.

But after coming here, she found that she still underestimated people's enthusiasm for the Philippine Awards, or their "enthusiasm" for her.

Winners of the Philippine Prize in the past years encouraged her to continue working hard, and professors from Ivy League schools took turns asking her if she had any intention to go to their school.

There is also Wolf Lehlen, the former Philippine Prize winner who will soon be 100 years old and Qian Mingli’s mentor at MIT. He even started poaching people in front of Qian Mingli.

Qian Mingli was helpless. This was his mentor, and at such an old age, he didn't even dare to speak loudly.

Yan Fuguang, who was so disturbed, looked at the hands of his watch and finally reached nine-thirty, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this was an academic conference, so the opening ceremony did not have too many bells and whistles. The host simply said some congratulations and then entered the formal part.

First, the Mayor of New York gave a welcome speech, and then Aaron Berg, President of the International Congress of Mathematicians, delivered a speech and read out the list of this year's Fields Medal winners.

After a short pause, Aaron Berg's slightly aged voice sounded again.

“First of all, let us welcome the first winner with a warm round of applause!

I would like to call her a gift given to us by the world in the new millennium. She is a rising supernova in the world of mathematics!

Today, right here, we will witness a legend with our own eyes!

Let us congratulate Yan Fuguang from Hudan University!"

Aaron Berg's not too passionate voice still ignited the venue instantly.

In fact, when he mentioned "supernova", eyes from all directions were already focused on Yan Fuguang in the front row.

And when Yan Fuguang stood up and walked to the stage, the applause lasted for a long time.

Although most people had expected Yan Fuguang to win the award, when this scene actually happened before their eyes, everyone still couldn't control their inner excitement.

A college student under 20, with an unprecedented award-winning record that will be hard to come by in the future!

When Yan Fuguang actually walked to the stage, when she bowed in front of the audience, the complicated feelings in the hearts of countless participants and audiences were difficult to describe in words.

What should a mathematician look like in the eyes of the world?

Isolated and stubborn, thinking outside the box, and unkempt?

They are accustomed to roaming in the rational thinking space, and only occasionally come down to the human world out of necessity?

There are many other fantasies, but no matter what, it seems that Yan Fuguang should not be like this.

With her long hair shawl, a touch of pink and white, and a knee-length black skirt, Yan Fuguang's look is extremely simple for a star.

But as a mathematician who just won the Fields Medal, even though she is so simple today, her exquisite appearance and calm and calm aura like a visitor from outer space still distinguish her from everyone present.

Holding the certificate and medal, Yan Fuguang's eyes were as bright as autumn water, and she looked at her with hope. She was beautiful, as beautiful as an alien.

Many cameras were pointed at him under the stage, and the camera lens not far away also focused on her. Yan Fuguang looked around, but caught an unexpected figure in the audience.

Catching Yan Fuguang's gaze, Ji Yingzhou smiled and raised his hand to say hello to her. Yan Fuguang was surprised for a moment and nodded in greeting with a smile.

Fortunately, the Philippine Prize winner does not have to give a speech on the spot, and Yan Fuguang does not have to worry about what to say.

Ji Yingzhou's appearance finally made this boring venue a little more interesting.

The audience watched Yan Fuguang come on stage and then watched her come off the stage. It seemed that no matter what the occasion, she would always have this ability to seduce people's hearts.

Then, Aaron Berg seemed to make a joke with everyone.

When he introduced Yan Fuguang, he said "Welcome the first winner", and when Yan Fuguang walked off the stage, he spoke again.

"Let us once again give our warmest applause to the first and last winner of this year's Fields Medal, Ms. Yan Fuguang!"

The scene was in an uproar.

According to convention, each Fields Medal will be awarded to 2 to 4 mathematicians who have made outstanding contributions. Originally, everyone thought that Yan Fuguang would definitely get one, and the rest would compete for the remaining two or three.

But when Aaron Berg said this as a joke, there was really nothing more to say.

Shocked, can't believe it...

Countless people have the same question in their minds - is the selection committee serious?
Chapter completed!
