The End of Technology

Dominette Duncan is actually annoyed by Conan Lamar's paternalistic speaking style, because it is somewhat similar to Ning Zi.

The translation is probably "Everyone who understands this matter understands it, but if you don't understand the language, it's not convenient for me to explain it to you now, so just be obedient!"

Who do you think he is? !

But what can he do?

Ning Zi was younger than him, but Ning Zi's mathematics skills daunted him.

Conan Lamar is not only older than him, he has more seniority in academic circles than him, and his achievements are no less than him. What's more important is that he has only one friend who has no relatives in China. He really doesn't want to argue with this great professor on this topic.

Otherwise, I won’t even be able to find a friend to go looking for delicious food with on the weekend.

too difficult!

Fortunately, it's not a big deal.

Even if I miss this quadrennial mathematician conference, it’s actually not a big deal.

Anyway, he is only 26 years old this year. Unless something big happens, he will at least have the opportunity to participate in more than ten World Congresses of Mathematicians.

Forget it, bear with it.

Dominet Duncan comforted herself thus.

…

Austin, capital of Texas, United States.

This is arguably one of the most livable cities in the entire United States.

Because many high-tech companies have settled here, Austin is also known as "Little Silicon Valley".

In a three-story house next to the bustling Second Street on Parliament Avenue, Nissen Mountbatten was sitting at a large desk, processing various documents sent from various divisions. These documents are a summary of various demands and situations sent by the bishops of the Illuminati Sect that have taken root in various cities and divisions in Texas.

Yes, after nearly a year of hard work, Nissen Mountbatten has spread the Illuminati followers throughout Texas, starting from one county, and even has an office in the state capital.

And it's much more impressive than the small company he once worked for in Silicon Valley.

The thick solid wood desk was left behind by the previous owner. It is said that the desk alone was worth US$28,000 when it was purchased. It was handmade by American craftsmen using pure red oak. It is not only strong and durable, but also extremely well maintained.

If Nissen Mountbatten hadn't inspected it carefully and saw the worn-out "Made in China" logo on the table legs, he might have believed it. So this shrewd businessman took this as a breakthrough point and negotiated down the purchase price of the entire building by 10%.

Yes, this building has become the headquarters of the Illuminati Sect in Texas. The total purchase price at that time was US$5.3 million, with a 10% down payment, plus all kinds of messy agency fees, taxes, lawyer fees, and insurance premiums. A total of $700,000 was spent.

But Neeson Mountbatten was sure it was all worth it.

From Nissen Mountbatten's perspective, he has been in email contact with Ning Zi. When his Illuminati Church finally established a firm foothold in San Antonio, Texas' second largest city, on Christmas Eve, he finally gained Ning Zi's trust, and an email that had a great impact on him finally came from the other side. .

In the email, Ning Zi suggested that he take advantage of this moment, when the ultimate network security algorithm patent is still valuable, to find a way to sell Nissenwill as soon as possible and completely break away from the company.

He even received several potential buyers in the email, although the transfer price set seemed slightly lower, only 30 million US dollars. After all, Nissen Mountbatten also spent a lot of money to obtain this patent. If you really calculate it, he spent at least more than 10 million.

If the various capital costs incurred for this are added, it will be at least about 15 million.

However, after hesitating for a night, Nissen Mountbatten decided to follow the advice in the email and sell the company within half a month. After paying various fees, there is still more than 13 million US dollars left.

At this time, there was no turning back for Nissen Mountbatten. Therefore, all this money was invested by Nissen Mountbatten in the construction of the Illuminati Religion.

It is actually not difficult to establish a new religion in the United States. What is difficult is formalizing it, legalizing it, and getting enough believers. After all, this is a country where all kinds of strange beliefs are rampant. Even if you believe in a river, it is okay as long as it does not violate local laws.

Of course, if you want to formalize and legalize it, and if you want to gain enough followers, you need money. If you want to be recognized by the state government, you need to pay a certain deposit and an approved event venue.

According to Nissan Mountbatten, this is a money grab...

A fixed place has area requirements. Whether you buy or rent, you have to pay taxes. You also have to find a local agent and lawyer. Some of those high fees will eventually become taxes.

As for the so-called deposit paid, there is a high probability that it will not be refunded at all. Because the people in the city hall can always find all kinds of reasons to withhold the money. Of course Neeson Mountbatten doesn't care about that now.

Running the Illuminati Sect has become a career that he has decided to devote his life to. Because he serves a God who is still alive!

Of course, there is a reason why a person who regards the U.S. dollar as a religion can worship it so highly.

The reason is that Ning Zi performed a magic trick on Neeson Mountbatten through countless emails and guidance.

In just one week, Nissen Mountbatten followed the instructions of these emails and dispersed 10 million into 20 different accounts. He organized a group of people to frequently operate in the futures market according to the emails that disappeared after reading. Ten million dollars turned into more than $79 million…

This was because he made two mistakes while busy, which cost him nearly 5 million. But it doesn't matter, now Neeson Mountbatten's sincerity for the Children of Light is as good as diamonds. This was the first time he knew that some people could make money faster than robbing a bank.

Unfortunately, this guidance only lasted a week.

Although he still wanted to continue, the email he responded to only had one suggestion: "Greed is the eternal original sin, kid, don't you understand? All wealth on paper is an illusion, and faith is your only password to success."

A simple sentence made Nissen Mountbatten feel like he was enlightened.

Yes, he is now the only man in North America who can receive oracles via e-mail. Are he still afraid of running out of money?

Facts have proven that even living gods disdain worldly wealth!

With an operating capital of nearly 80 million US dollars, the arrogance of Nissen Mountbatten can be seen.

Now he has to spend money!

Only by spending all this money as soon as possible on the most loyal believers can he have a chance to gain more wealth.

In this way, they kept squandering money, and soon the Illuminati Sect spread rapidly in Texas. Almost every city has a fixed gathering place for believers, and even large cities have more than one.

As of now, the Illuminati Sect has more than 30 million U.S. dollars in its account, and its number of believers has reached 480,000.

You must know that the total population of Texas is only 5.5 million, which is equivalent to almost one in every eleven people now being a believer of the Illuminati Sect.

This is only the result of Nissen Mountbatten for more than half a year.

However, recently he was not busy continuing to expand his achievements. Instead, he came to the capital of Texas and began to practice internal skills. Yes, after the church grew stronger and stronger, Nissen Mountbatten, who once again received guidance from the oracle, realized that he needed to use the most familiar way to run this business.

So Nissen Mountbatten came to the capital of Texas and bought this building. He hired a team of experienced accountants with a high salary to plan the church's assets and finances, hired a dedicated team to create files for all church believers, and personally interviewed suitable lawyers to start forming a large team of lawyers specifically to provide services to the church. Internal Affairs Services…

Of course, Nissen Mountbatten himself also started doing what he was best at. A check for five million dollars allowed him to become very good friends with many bigwigs in the state Senate.

This also forced him to frequent those luxurious upper-class banquets.

After all, everyone wants their campaign manager to know someone as wealthy as Neeson Mountbatten who is willing to lavish campaign funds. Although the cost of running for governor and state legislators is much smaller than running for federal positions.

But it is also not something that an individual can afford.

After all, if you want to be exposed, you need financial support. Every speech, every time you appear on TV, newspapers, and the Internet... requires a lot of investment. Just like celebrities buying hot searches, if they want their opinions to be heard by more people, they need countless money to pave the way.

Besides, living in such a beautiful country, who would care about having too much money?

Of course, it was also the first time for Nissen Mountbatten to really come into contact with the so-called upper class society. After all, when he was in Silicon Valley, with the size of Nissenwill, he would never be willing to directly write a check for five million US dollars without any immediate benefits.

Fortunately, he has strong learning ability and strong adaptability.

He soon learned how to deal with these upper-class people in a gentleman's way, which was nothing more than using more elegant words to express those true thoughts. This also made him more popular with those in upper class society.

Just when he was enjoying this life like a fish in water, he received an email from Ning Zi again. This was also the first time that his faith assigned him a specific task.

…

On this afternoon in June, Nissen Mountbatten quietly looked at every word in the email on the screen.

Because he knows very well that this is the real code of wealth in his life.

Even if the car horns honked and the noisy life kept entering the room through the half-open window, it did not affect his concentration at all.

This is true professionalism. Regardless of whether he knows his faith or not, he must maintain this pious concentration when facing the Holy Oracle.

The order he sent was actually very simple. He told his followers that network equipment manufacturers represented by Cisco, Ericsson, and Logia had very bad things in their products that would threaten many people. interests and safety...

Um……

This command is simply awesome.

There is something really bad in the network equipment.

Nissen Mountbatten felt extremely lucky. He had listened to Ning Zi and sold Nissen Weir Company before. Because no matter how he looks at it now, he feels that this very bad thing is the ultimate network security algorithm that the company once relied on for its survival.

Of course, based on the IQ of the vast majority of believers, they would probably think that Cisco's products are equipped with strong radiation sources or that they can steal secrets from their minds. But who cares?

Anyway, Ning Zi's order only needs to convince believers that there are bad things in these network devices, and what consequences they may have. As for what kind of bad thing it was, it was not mentioned in the email, so he naturally didn't need to worry about it.

Of course, he doesn't need to deal with this kind of thing personally.

Neeson Mountbatten just pressed the button on the table casually, and soon his office door was pushed open. A woman who very much conformed to Western white beauty standards reached half of her body, and her affectionate and respectful eyes fell on him. Nissen Mountbatten asked: "Patriarch, what are your orders?"

Nissen Mountbatten glanced at the woman's exquisite body with a slightly greedy gaze, and when he spoke, he spoke in a very serious tone, even with a hint of reverence: "Go and ask Bishop Lei Luo to come to my office."

"Okay, respected Patriarch." The woman bowed and saluted, and then walked out of the office.

Soon, Professor Obote Lelo, wearing an exquisite gown, knocked gently on the door and walked into Nissen Mountbatten's office.

Now Obote Leiluo has completely lost the embarrassment he felt when he first came to the United States. Just looking at his current appearance, he has become a standard successful person. In fact, this is indeed the case. If we talk about the purity of faith, Obote Lelo may be more pious than Nissen Mountbatten.

This is probably a standard rule. After telling a lie a thousand times, you will unconsciously believe it.

But there was no way. Obote Leiluo, who still believed in science, decided to start respecting his beliefs when he found that no one could explain why Ning Zi's lightning test was successful.

Now faith has given him everything he wanted.

…

Obote Lelo, who was standing in front of Nissen Mountbatten's desk, put his right hand on his left shoulder, leaned his body slightly forward, saluted Nissen Mountbatten in this way, and chanted in his mouth: " Praise be to the children of light.”

This action also made Nissen Mountbatten stand up seriously immediately, and with the same etiquette, he said: "Praise the Son of Light, may the light always guide you forward."

To be honest, Nissen Mountbatten did not want to engage in such a complicated process with the black man in front of him, but unfortunately this Guinean professor seemed to be really poisoned. This also made Nissen Mountbatten feel the danger.

After all, the Illuminati Religion will never allow any more devout believers than him to exist...

"Okay, Obote, I just received an oracle. He told me that companies such as Cisco, Ericsson, Logia, Qualcomm, etc., have extremely bad things in the products they produce. Although God did not tell us What are those bad things? Maybe there are other concerns. But he wants our believers to know this. You have to tell our believers that these things are very dangerous. I believe that with your knowledge, you can let them know Why is it dangerous?"

Obote Leiluo immediately lowered his head after hearing this and said: "As God wishes."

After going through the entire process, Obote Leilo asked seriously: "Patriarch, don't you think this is a challenge given to us by God?"

"Huh?" Nissen Mountbatten looked at Obote Lelo with some doubts.

"I think we can use this opportunity to expand the influence of the Illuminati. Maybe you should make your voice heard, Patriarch." Obote Leilo explained.

Neeson Mountbatten hesitated.

A smart man like him would naturally know what Obote Leilo meant, but if so, it would be too big a gamble.

After all, he took money from Cisco back then...

Standing up directly to fight these giants, Neeson Mountbatten was afraid that his small body would not be able to withstand the hammer. For these giant companies, hundreds of millions of dollars are just small amounts of money.

Obote Lelo saw Nissen Mountbatten's hesitation and said again: "Think about it, Nissen, why did God assign this task at this time? He is about to take action, and He is going to do what is most important to him in the world. The disrespectful people are taking action! I firmly believe that we are just an inducement for Him. When God really wants to take action against those disrespectful people, will they still have a chance to resist?"

Yes, under the influence of Nissen Mountbatten, Obote Lelo is no longer the frustrated mathematics professor in Guinea.

Now Obote Lelo already knows too well where his advantages are and how to use these advantages to get everything he wants. He has even dared to express his more radical opinions in front of his former guide...

Of course, Neeson Mountbatten would never have imagined that he was not the only person qualified to read letters that burned after reading.

Obote Lelo also often receives letters that disappear after reading, instructing the professor from Africa on how to manage his role.

In the eyes of Nissen Mountbatten, Obote Lelo was a subordinate who obeyed him.

But Obote Lelo understood that he was the most loyal mouth and eyes arranged by the gods beside Nissen Mountbatten. He was responsible for allowing Nissen Mountbatten to make the right decision and for the Patriarch to betray his faith. time to replace the task.

Obote Lelo believed that there might be eyes like this beside him, but what does that matter? As long as his faith remains pure, the thunder from the sky cannot hit him.

Two consecutive words of advice made Nissen Mountbatten look at Obote Lelo with a deeper look.

Really, he never imagined that this black professor could be more radical than him.

"You think we should be more aggressive?"

"No, I just think you are too conservative. Nissen, I know you are risk-averse, but please think about it. When these huge buildings collapse one by one, how much profit will be generated, even if it is only one thousandth of the wealth? It will be an astronomical sum that we could not even imagine. How do you think God will distribute these benefits?" Obote Lelo asked seriously.

Nissen Mountbatten frowned. Just when he was having trouble making a decision, Obote Lelo's faint voice penetrated into his ears again: "Nissen, do you really think it's enough to go to those upper-class banquets every day? Do you really think Do those well-dressed gentlemen and ladies see you as their equal? ​​Is it possible that, after shaking hands with you, they go to the bathroom and rinse their hands while cursing the damn thing? Yes, dirty country bumpkin..."

"Well, maybe you are right, Obote, maybe we should let more people know about those conspiracies... Well, let us plan it carefully. Of course, first you have to contact the bishops of each diocese. Come on, let them tell our believers the oracle as soon as possible, and maybe we should organize some marches. Tell them we need a video conference!”

"Also, Nissen, maybe you haven't paid attention. On June 10, the quadrennial World Congress of Mathematicians will be held. This is a conference that the whole world is paying attention to, and our God will be at this conference. Give a report to representatives of mathematicians from all over the world. What do you think will happen?”

Nissen Mountbatten was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Obote Lelo was also a mathematician. He couldn't help but fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said: "I probably understand..."

…

China.

As June 10th approaches, the Chinese Mathematical Society has also confirmed the list of delegations to the International Congress of Mathematicians. This time, the Chinese delegation was led by Fan Zhenhua, Chairman of the Mathematics Society, Vice Chairman Lu Zhengyue, Secretary of the Society, Professor Fang Xu from the Yanbei International Mathematics Research Center, a total of four people.

Of course, there are some Chinese mathematicians who, although not members of the official delegation, have received invitation letters and need to be invited to give reports, such as Ning Ju. Of course, there are also some graduate students and doctoral students in the mathematics schools of universities who choose to attend this four-year event of mathematicians at their own expense.

Yanbei University of Sports is undoubtedly the biggest winner.

Before the delegation set off, a special newsletter was written on the official website.

“Three current mathematicians from our school were invited to participate in the 2018 Mathematicians Conference.”

These words are already very strong. After all, there are not many mathematicians who can be officially invited.

There are not many schools in the whole of China that can have this card.

Of course, the University has also prepared more newsletters and is waiting for the news to be published on the homepage of the official website immediately.

This year's International Congress of Mathematicians is a big deal.

But with Huaxia's always restrained and cautious temperament, even if one thing is 99% sure, there will only be various gossips spread before the final decision is made, and the official will definitely not confirm it.

Therefore, the fact that Ning Zi is sure to win this year's Fields Medal has only been widely circulated within the academic community. This has also made this year's World Congress of Mathematicians the focus of countless scholars in China.

Whether you are truly proud of China or just envious and jealous, this is important.

Because if this thing comes true, there is no doubt that Ning Zi will be the thickest thigh in China's academic world in the next half century.

If others want to be evaluated as academicians, they must choose a good mentor step by step starting from the graduate level, start to accumulate experience at the doctoral level, and then compete with countless people for outstanding youths, outstanding youths, young scientists, Yangtze River scholars, etc. to accept projects non-stop. Build credentials in academia. Only when the bosses feel that the child has enough qualifications and satisfactory results can he be nominated...

But Ning Ju is different. Just by winning the Turing Award and the Fields Medal at the same time, he can already dominate the Chinese academic world. It is not unusual to be nominated and become an academician of the Republic of China even after graduating from a bachelor's degree.

Academic qualifications may be a stepping stone to others, but to Ning Zi, they are not even worthless. Because the learning and upgrading route of postgraduate studies has completely lost its meaning to him.

Think about it, three years later, when Ning Zi graduates from the undergraduate program and enters the postgraduate program, in Ning Zi’s related research field, who has the nerve and ability to be his mentor?

For ordinary geniuses, no matter how bad the tutor is, they can at least act as a guide, using their experience, resources and connections in the industry to pave the way for the students' future.

But someone like Ning Zi, who set the minimum age for international academic awards without any problem, directly caused a bug. Three years later, there will probably be few scholars in the world who can compare with him in terms of academic achievements, abilities, resources, and connections...

What's even more frightening is that maybe the instructor couldn't understand what Ning Zi wanted to study at that time. Just like now, what Ning Zi actually does every Friday is more avant-garde than any doctoral supervisor - solving problems for a group of top mathematics doctoral students.

Even though this matter was even desperately used by the admissions team of Yanbei University of Sports for various admissions promotions, it still did not stop. The main reason is that the effect is too obvious. In the year when mathematics courses were launched at the National Sports University, the number and quality of papers published by doctoral students in the School of Mathematics at Yanbei University increased significantly.

Some things are addictive, and it’s too difficult to quit…

So on the contrary, if anyone could become Ning Zi's mentor, he would probably be the happiest mentor in the world, just following his students. Maybe if Ning Zi obtains a random result and is willing to give his mentor a signature as the corresponding author, it will become the most important achievement of his mentor's life.

It is estimated that if we really go according to the normal mode, the instructors who want to grab Ning Jie will be involved in the takeoff.

This is probably the case. It can be said that the entire academic world is not quite ready to accept such an awesome guy.

Of course, it’s not a big problem. Anyway, any regulations in China actually leave room for flexibility for special cases. If someone like Ning Jie comes back with an award, the University will directly give him a doctorate title, and probably no one will have anything to say. Sour words.

Ning Zi himself must have never thought about this. He has never and does not need to care about academic qualifications. Anyway, as long as it's not an academic problem, someone will help him make arrangements in advance.

Just like this time I went to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to attend the World Congress of Mathematicians. From the visa to the chosen plane, everything was arranged well in advance. Especially the aircraft. This time, a special plane was directly arranged. The model is the French Airbus A340-200, the four-engine model, which was modified.

In Chen Yonggang's words, it actually didn't cost much to rent this plane for Ti University. It was basically a symbolic payment for the normal business class price. The rest of the money was donated by related companies, such as Youwei Group and Qiangdun Company. …

Among them, the main passengers were Ning Zhe and Dominette Duncan. The two chose to arrive in Brazil one day early. The Chinese delegation led by Fan Zhenhua had already set off two days ago.

Of course, there must be more than two people on the special plane. In addition to the crew members of the two flights, there are also two teams of security personnel arranged by Qiangshield Company, totaling more than thirty people.

However, most of the staff were separated from Ning Zi and Dominette Duncan's activities on the plane. Except Zhai Qiuxian, whose mission is to protect Ning Zi 24 hours a day.

24-hour personal protection overseas is very serious.

However, the room booked for Ning Zi was originally a suite. Even under the same roof, he could rest in separate rooms.

…

Dominic Duncan was extremely excited as soon as he got on the plane. According to the Harvard professor, this was the first time he had flown on such a spacious special plane. After all, although there were more than thirty people on the plane, the area of ​​activity left for three people was nearly 30 square meters, which was indeed very spacious.

It was only Ning Zi's calmness that quickly calmed down the excited Dominette Duncan.

He also didn't want to appear too strange.

In fact, the excitement was mainly due to the expectation that this long-distance trip would be extremely difficult.

After all, the route is 17,000 kilometers long. According to the normal operating time of direct flights, even a direct flight will take about 30 hours. Anyone who has flown on a long-haul airline knows that such a long flight time and being able to move in the cramped space of an airplane for a long time is simply a nightmare. Even the so-called first class or business class is not much better.

But after drinking a drink poured by the flight attendant, Dominette Duncan couldn't help but ask Ning Jie: "You take this kind of plane every time you travel to China?"

Ning Zi, who was holding the cat and thinking about the problem, looked up at Dominette Duncan and corrected his mistake: "This is my first time flying. Is there anything wrong?"

Dominette Duncan was stunned, then shook his head and said: "Um...it's nothing, sorry to bother you."

After saying that, the young mathematics professor turned his attention to Zhai Qiuxian who was sitting beside him. A beautiful woman was more worthy of admiration than this guy who did nothing but learn.

Zhai Qiuxian's attention was on the kitten in Ning Zi's arms.

She couldn't understand why Ning Zi insisted on taking the cat with her despite the dissuasion. After all, it was very troublesome to take pets with her on this kind of international flight.

Although the reason given by Ning Zi was that the kitten could make him feel at ease, she always felt that this was an excuse...

It is indeed an excuse.

Although a kitten can get to Brazil by stomping its feet, it is difficult to explain when a kitten shows up.

It's better to carry it with you.

Anyway, various customs clearance documents and epidemic prevention certificates are not a big problem in March.

Of course, for Zhai Qiuxian, this is a little emotion used to kill time during the journey. To her, Ning Zi's little hobby is not important. What she was more concerned about was how Ning Zi would fulfill the words he had said next.

Have been looking forward to it for a long time.

…

Finally, after a long journey of 26 hours, the plane landed at Rio de Janeiro International Airport.

When Ning Zi got off the plane with the passengers, he left directly through the special passage negotiated before. The Chinese Embassy in Rio de Janeiro sent a special car to greet him. This also allowed Ning Zi to see an acquaintance - Professor Fang Xu as soon as he left the airport.

For Fang Xu to be able to participate in this meeting as an official delegation, Fan Zhenhua's support is definitely indispensable.

But of course these are not important to Ning Zi. It is still very pleasant to see acquaintances in a foreign country.

Soon the group of people got into three cars separately.

Ning Zi, Dominette Duncan, Fang Xu and Zhai Qiuxian sat in the commercial car in the middle.

"Xiao Ning, when you get to the hotel, you should rest first. It's best to get up in the afternoon. Academician Fan has made an appointment with some friends and wants to introduce them to you." Fang Xu said after getting in the car.

Ning Zi thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "Forget it, thank Academician Fan for your kindness. I don't plan to make friends this time."

"Uh..." This answer was a bit unexpected by Fang Xu, and he could only hold back the rest of his words.

When Dominette Duncan heard this, he became energetic and suggested: "Ning, you are right. You can't build any friendship in two days. Why don't I take you to see Rio this afternoon?" The beach. Really, Brazilians are very passionate and unrestrained, you will definitely like it.”

Yes, one year in China has enabled this highly intelligent professor to understand simple conversations. Although his speaking skills are still poor, his listening skills have at least passed CET-6.

Ning Zi glanced at Dominette Duncan, shook her head and said, "Forget it, you'd better go on your own, I'm not interested either."

"Oh my God, Ning Zi, I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon, and you don't want to experience it?" Dominette Duncan asked in surprise.

"You're leaving tomorrow afternoon? You're not even going to attend the dinner?" Fang Xu also asked in surprise.

Ning Zi's itinerary had not been communicated to the delegation before, so Fang Xu naturally didn't know it either.

"Yes." Ning Zi glanced at Fang Xu, nodded, and then said: "So I plan to have a good rest today. I will have enough energy to attend tomorrow's meeting, and then I have to rush. Apologize to Academician Fan for me."

Fang Xu fell silent.

From this itinerary, he keenly sensed something unusual.

He even couldn't help but pray in his heart that the big boss in front of him would not do anything wrong tomorrow. Of course, this was not something he could worry about.

…

As he said, after arriving at the hotel, Ning Zi entered the room directly and put up the no-disturbance sign.

He didn't plan to communicate with anyone before the conference started.

Lunch and dinner are also prepared and delivered directly to the room by the staff.

At this time, Zhai Qiuxian's role is highlighted.

This cold-faced beauty bodyguard does her job of saying no with style. She is not from academia, and she doesn't care who is who. When the big boss comes, anyway, as long as someone comes to visit, she just says Ning Zi is resting and dismisses it.

Of course, a beautiful woman refused, and the person they wanted to visit was still a young man. Most academic leaders, no matter how old they were, would understand. There was no thought of forcing him to meet Ning Zi.

After all, this kind of thing is very easy to offend people.

Anyway, the conference will last for nine days and there will be more than 1,200 reports. Ning Zi can't stay in the room all the time and never go out. He can always find opportunities to communicate in person.

Just like that, when Ning Zi walked out of the hotel room, it was already before the conference was about to start the next day, after the conference staff came to remind her.

Ning Zi has also adjusted her mentality.

…

When heading from the hotel to the main venue, Ning Zi did not choose to go with the Chinese delegation, not even with Dominic Duncan. He just followed Zhai Qiuxian, who had also obtained the qualification to enter the venue, in a low-key manner.

There were many mathematicians waiting to enter the venue at this time, but few of them could actually recognize Ning Jue. For most foreign mathematicians, Ning Zi is still a new face. Especially when he and Zhai Qiuxian walked together without wearing identification tags representing special guests, it was easy to mistake them for students who came to attend the conference at their own expense.

Arriving at the venue where the conference was held, Ning Zi took out his nameplate and was led into a special passage by the staff under the surprised eyes of many people. As a confirmed winner of the Fields Medal, Ning Zi’s position is in the front row of the conference. In fact, he does have this qualification.

When he arrived at his seat, he saw that Dominic Duncan had arrived at the venue earlier than him and was chatting animatedly with the people next to him.

"Ning Zi, you are finally here. Let me introduce to you. This is Alessio Figali. You should know him. I remember you read his paper. Well, it is about optimal transmission theory. . Look, Alessio, he is Ning Zi, a guy who is so young that it is unbelievable!"

He did know the mathematician, one of the mathematicians who will win the Fields Medal this year.

It seems that this conference is very particular about the location arrangement, and several winners were simply arranged together. But Ning Zi still had no interest in chatting. After nodding at the two of them, she sat down in her seat.

"Okay, don't worry about it, Alessio. That's just the way Ning is. He always likes to keep people away. But in fact, after you have been in contact with him for a long time, you will find that he is indeed difficult to deal with." Dominic Duncan spread his hands and said to Alessio Figali.

The volume control can be heard even in Ningji.

Ning Zi glanced sideways at Dominic Duncan, then looked past Dominic, and explained in standard diplomatic terms: "I'm sorry, I have a slight sociophobia."

"Huh? Yes, there are indeed more people today."

"Um……"

After nodding in agreement, Ning Zi stopped talking...

While waiting for the meeting to start, many big guys came here to say hello and say a few words to a few people. This time, there was Alessio Figali, who was more reliable than Dominate Duncan, who kept helping Ning Zi explain to each big boss that this young mathematician from China had a slight social phobia and was unable to help Ning Zi. It solves a lot of worries...

At least there were a lot less unnecessary pleasantries.

Finally, half an hour later, the conference officially started. First, the professor, chairman of the organizing committee of the conference, delivered a speech, and then the president of the International Mathematical Union delivered a speech.

After the two heavyweights finished speaking, the conference directly entered the most exciting part, announcing and awarding the four major awards of the International Mathematical Union.

For a few lucky mathematicians, this is a scene worth remembering for a lifetime.

Ning Zi could feel the excitement of these award-winning mathematicians standing on the rostrum of the conference, and couldn't help but feel apologetic. After all, a good mathematician conference may have diverted attention this year because of some of his speeches. It's a bit sorry.

Soon, the first three awards were announced.

It’s time for the most important awards ceremony of this conference, where the Fields Medal winner is announced.

Fields Medal winner Hichishima mathematician Shigefumi Mori, President of the International Mathematical Union, began the introduction.

"Okay, let me announce that the next step is to announce the Fields Medal winners. First of all, the mathematician I want to introduce to you is a talented Italian mathematician. His understanding of the calculus of variations is extremely profound. But more importantly, he was the first to combine the optimal transport theory with the Monge-Campère equation, which greatly improved people's understanding of fluid mechanics, computer image processing and other fields... Yes, he is Allais Theo Figali…”

At this moment, there was thunderous applause in the opening ceremony auditorium.
