Ultimate Scholar

Chapter 217 A Great Letter, International Response

It is a matter of pride for anyone to have completed graduation and become a tenured honorary professor of his alma mater.

Of course, for Li Mu, there are still many things to do on this trip back to China.

For example, the National Day is coming soon, and there are some meetings in Shangjing, and he is also invited to attend.

This trip to Beijing also allowed him to meet many bigwigs.

Every boss expressed concern to him.

In particular, he also met an old man in his nineties named Fang Weiguo.

This old man participated in countless wars, large and small, in the last century, and he made great contributions to defending the country.

And because he had a very good relationship with Chen Jingrun in the last century, he can be called an old friend, so he expressed special appreciation for Li Mu.

"The relationship between me and Lao Chen, that's a good one. Hey, speaking of it, I asked him about math problems back then."

In the courtyard, Li Mu was invited by Elder Fang to come here, and listened to Elder Fang telling the story of the year.

"As a result, I still overestimated my own ability. Why do you think this math is so difficult?"

"I think back then I was also a well-known talented person in ten miles and eight villages, but when I did that math problem, it was like my head was broken into four pieces, and I had a terrible headache."

Listening to Fang Lao's narration, Li Mu couldn't help laughing.

Next to Mr. Fang's grandson, Fang Ning smiled and said, "So there is a saying, what can't be done if you kill me? You can't solve this math problem even if you kill me."

"Then I'll beat you to death, can you take the first place in the class in mathematics?"

Elder Fang glanced at his eldest grandson.

Fang Ning immediately covered his head: "You don't want to talk about this, can you?"

"Learn from Brother Li." Elder Fang pointed at Li Mu: "Don't tell me you're going to prove Goldbach's conjecture or something, so don't lose face to your old man."

As he was talking, Mr. Fang suddenly covered his head and rubbed it: "Hiss, remembering that you only scored so little in the math test last time, I have a headache now."

"I will definitely pass the exam next time!" Fang Ning said hastily.

However, Li Mu frowned slightly.

Once the old man has a headache, it is not easy.

Having absorbed a lot of biomedical knowledge, he can be regarded as a very professional biomedical scientist now. He glanced at the place Fang Lao was covering, turned his head to Fang Ning and said, "Mr. Fang should have a health care team, right? Hurry up." Let them come over and let Mr. Fang check."

Fang Ning was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately reacted: "I know! I'll call right now!"

But Mr. Fang waved his hand: "Hey, I'm sick, it's no big deal."

Li Mu shook his head: "Old Fang, you should pay more attention to your body."

"What should I pay attention to? It's normal for people to be old and have some physical problems. Don't I live to be ninety now?" Fang Laolang said with a smile: "Confucius only lived 73 years, and Mencius only lived 84 years. This life is worth it."

Seeing the old man look away, Li Mu also laughed: "With your mentality, you can live a hundred years at least."

"Hahaha, then I will lend you a good word!" Fang Lao said with a hearty smile.

After the two talked a few more words, after a while, several doctors from the health care team also hurried over. After checking Mr. Fang, the director said, "Mr. Fang, your blood pressure has changed again. High, have you been drinking again recently?"

"No, absolutely not!" Fang Lao shook his head repeatedly.

Fang Ning, the narrator, immediately reported: "My grandfather hides wine under the bed!"

"You brat! I hurt you for nothing!" Fang Lao suddenly blew his beard and stared, making Fang Ning shrink back for a while.

The chief doctor immediately frowned and said, "Mr. Fang, you said that you... oh!"

Sighing, he said: "I will report this matter to Mr. Fang Cunping, you really can't drink too much alcohol, it will lead to..."

"I know, I know, isn't it just atherosclerosis, blood clots, high blood pressure?" Fang Lao said, "Hey, it's okay, Xiao Chen, once is enough, I will definitely drink less in the future, Don't call my son over."

"It's not that you drink less, it's that you don't drink at all."

"You really killed me!"

...

Soon, the members of the health care team prescribed some medicine for Elder Fang, told him to take it on time, and left.

Li Mu was also left here until dinner time, and had a meal with Mr. Fang.

But while eating, suddenly, Fang Ning exclaimed: "Hey! Mu Shen, you still communicate with Mr. Chen Jingrun's grandson?"

Li Mu was taken aback, communicating with Chen Jingrun's grandson?

Soon he remembered the letter he had written before, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, after my report on Goldbach's conjecture was over, I did communicate with him, but why don't you knew?"

Fang Ning pointed to the mobile phone and said, "He put the letter you wrote on the Internet... Your letter... is really great!"

Li Mu was stunned for a moment.

It seems that after so many days, the letter he wrote has also been sent from England to Chen Li, the grandson of Chen Jingrun.

However, Chen Li posted the contents of the letter online?

"What's going on?" Elder Fang next to him immediately put down his chopsticks and asked, "What's written in the letter?"

"Look."

Fang Ning immediately handed the phone to Mr. Fang.

Elder Fang took it over and took a look. After a while, he showed a surprised expression, and then gave Li Mu a thumbs up.

"The writing is great. If every talented person can maintain a humble heart like you, maybe our world will be more exciting than it is now."

Speaking of him, he also handed the phone to Li Mu, "Looking at you, you probably don't know yet, so take a look."

Li Mu took the phone and looked it up.

This is a Weibo article, and the author of the article is a personal account, but the name is Chen Li, the grandson of Chen Jingrun.

It should be a newly registered account.

[I am Chen Jingrun's grandson, Chen Li. After hearing that Mr. Li Mu proved Goldbach's conjecture, I wrote him a thank you letter to thank him for fulfilling my grandfather's wish. A few days ago, I received his reply letter, After reading this reply letter, I felt deafened and enlightened. It also made me realize how admirable Mr. Li Mu is, and I feel that I should not be the only one who knows about such things. This reply should not only belong to me, so I will publish it, hoping that everyone can know that Mr. Li Mu is not just a genius! 】

Then below, he attached a photo of the reply letter written by Li Mu.

When Li Mu saw it, he naturally recognized the letter, which was his reply letter.

This Weibo has already attracted tens of thousands of replies, as well as tens of thousands of likes and reposts.

With such data, it has probably already been on the hot search, and at least it is in the top few positions.

Entering the comment area, the comments of netizens are also full of surprises.

[Shepherd's writing is so good! This is our genius! Only by remaining humble can we continue to make breakthroughs]

[What is a pattern? This is called a pattern! 】

[The layout is huge! Shepherd is awesome! 】

【A true master always has the heart of an apprentice】

【After seeing this letter, I won’t be surprised that Mu Shen will solve any difficult problems in the future】

[The God of Mu is the God of Mu! In addition to being a god in learning, he also seems to have divinity in character! 】

【Standing on the shoulders of giants! Professor Li, you are also a giant! 】

[After reading it, it also gave me a deafening feeling that the God of Mu can maintain such a mentality, and I should learn from God of Mu even more! 】

[The handwriting is so beautiful, and the letter is so well written! Forever God! 】

[When the Human Stars Shine! 】

...

In the series of comments, there was absolutely no critical words to be found, and every netizen seemed to be aroused with lofty respect at this moment, and expressed their respect to Li Mu.

In history, many famous ideas or opinions, or works, were born in letters.

For example, Einstein wrote a letter to his friend, in which he talked about his views on God, expressing his belief in Spinoza's God, and a little longer is like Goldbach wrote to Euler that letter.

There are even more in domestic history, such as "Reply to Zhongshushu", etc. There are many well-known poems that were also born in letters.

It's just that in modern times, with the convenience of electronic communication, the exchange of letters has gradually been eliminated, so there is rarely such a letter that can arouse people's amazement.

But today, Li Mu expresses the letter that he thinks in his heart, which has created such an effect.

Li Mu put down the phone and handed it back to Fang Ning.

The way Fang Ning looked at Li Mu at this time also showed signs of turning from the previous kind of admiration to fanaticism.

Elder Fang looked at Li Mu's eyes and appreciated him more and more.

A young man with talent and such excellent character, it is hard not to be liked by the older generation like him.

Probably if he had a granddaughter, he would probably have a baby kiss with Li Mu immediately.

Of course, he still asked, "Li Mu, are you married? Are you interested in finding a girlfriend? Old man, let me introduce you."

Li Mu couldn't laugh or cry immediately.

...

In the end, Mr. Fang's attempt to introduce a girlfriend to Li Mu naturally failed.

Li Mu also left quickly after finishing his meal.

However, the popularity of the letter about Li Mu on the Internet has remained high, and it has gradually spread across the country and become known to the whole world.

In today's society, no one does not admire those talented and good moral people, whether they are domestic or foreign.

Ever since, as the content of Li Mu's reply letter got out, it was translated into more than a dozen languages, and after it was circulated all over the world, it immediately attracted people of different nationalities to regard Li Mu as an idol.

And these are also the impacts in the international community.

The impact of this letter on the academic world is the greatest.

The prosperity of the academic world today, as written in Li Mu's letter, is laid by generations of people who went on and on, and we should thank every scholar for his contribution.

Such a letter can resonate with any scholar and empathize with him.

Immediately, scholars all over the world also responded.

In the field of mathematics, as Li Mu's doctoral supervisor, Andrew Wiles said in an interview: "Although I am Li Mu's teacher, what I still want to say is that Li Mu deserves the admiration of each of us. All scientists together form a scientific giant, and each of us is a giant!"

In the field of physics, George Parisi, who has just been confirmed by the Nobel Prize as the winner of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics, also made the following evaluation: "If all scientists form a scientific giant, then Li Mu can be called a Little Giants of Science."

In the field of chemistry, Nobel Prize winner Stanley Whittingham also said: "Thank you Li Mu for recognizing each of our scholars, and I hope that every scholar can remember that no matter how humble your position is, , and never forget that what you dedicate yourself to is the greatest cause of mankind—science.”

...

No one knows what impact Li Mu's letter will have on the academic world, but what people believe is that it will only be a good thing, not a bad thing.

Because this brings motivation to every researcher.

"Mr. Li... Oh, I should call you Professor Li now."

"Your letter inspired people like me."

Li Mu, who had temporarily returned to his hometown in Qin'an City, suddenly received a call from Kingsley Weir.

That is, the former associate professor at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich who is researching new thrombolytic drugs.

Li Mu smiled and said, "If it can help you, then it means that my letter is valuable."

"Haha, maybe it was because of your letter that I suddenly made a breakthrough in my experiment!"

"I think we are very close to success!"
