When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Wang Donglai was quite satisfied with the measures taken to deal with the incident.

So, without hesitation, I immediately agreed.

"President, I was the one who started this whole thing, so I can't just walk away from it."

"Just tell me how you need my assistance, and I'll do my best to help."

Upon hearing Wang Donglai's words, the chairman couldn't help but smile.

"Academician Wang, before we came here, we consulted with the relevant leaders. This matter concerning the World Congress of Mathematicians is no longer a simple struggle for academic discourse power, but a conspiracy by the Western academic community to suppress our development."

"It can be said that this was a covert battle that combined academic competition, political wisdom, and national integrity."

Therefore, we have decided not to attend the meeting.

"Next, the association will contact renowned scholars at home and abroad to jointly sign an open letter to make this matter public and express our attitude."

"In this regard, Academician Wang has a considerable influence in the international academic community, so we hope that Academician Wang can take the lead in calling for action."

"Secondly, we plan to hold a mathematics summit in China, using methods such as unlimited closed-door derivation and live streaming across the internet, before the global congress of mathematicians."

"Finally, we have a request: could Academician Wang provide a copy of one of his unpublished manuscripts for the attendees to discuss?"

The president said everything he wanted to say in one breath.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Wang Donglai, eagerly awaiting his answer.

Wang Donglai pondered for a moment, then nodded and shook his head.

Everyone's hearts tightened upon seeing this.

"The president just mentioned that I need to take the lead in calling for action, and there are no problems with the unpublished manuscripts."

"However, I have a thought that I would appreciate it if the president would consider."

"Could this mathematics summit be held in Tangdu City?"

"Tangdu City has hosted several international academic conferences and has some experience in this area. Holding it here would allow for better resource allocation. What do you think, Chairman?"

A hint of joy flashed in Xu Songyao's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

The president gave a wry smile and said, "Academician Wang, you've really given me a tough problem."

"Regarding the venue, whether it can be held in Tangdu City, I can only say that I need to report to the leaders. The decision is not in my hands. I hope Academician Wang can understand."

Wang Donglai nodded and said, "Don't worry, Chairman, I will inform Tangdu City about this matter. Let the leaders handle it themselves; we won't concern ourselves with it."

"Secondly, I think this mathematics summit should not be just a temporary event. Since we've started it, we should stick to it."

"The World Congress of Mathematicians, such a solemn and dignified academic conference, has been affected by the Bald Eagle Federation and turned into a questioning of us."

"If that's the case, why don't we form an academic system based on our own strengths? Just like academic journals, the top academic journals are dominated by the West. We have reached a critical moment in our development."

"We must not only catch up with the West in terms of hard power, but also in these areas."

"Only by establishing a complete academic system and regulations that belong to us can we prevent such things from happening again."

When Wang Donglai said this, everyone's eyes lit up.

Xu Songyao and Zhang Yitang nodded repeatedly in agreement, saying, "Indeed, I think this is a great idea."

"Only systems can counter systems. Since the West is using these systems to attack and question us, we cannot just focus on responding. We should find ways to take thorough countermeasures."

After thinking for a moment, the president nodded and said, "I will report this matter to the higher authorities in the name of the association."

Upon hearing this, Wang Donglai continued, "At this mathematics summit, I can conduct in-depth discussions and research, including but not limited to major mathematical problems."

"I believe that when the news comes out, Western scholars will be faced with a dilemma."

"Regarding the invitation to this mathematics summit, we could actually use a little trick: write it in LaTeX and add a fragment of Goldbach's conjecture proof. Every participating scholar would have their own unique attendance code."

"Verification will be conducted upon entering the venue. Only those who pass the verification will be allowed to enter and participate in this mathematics summit."

The expressions of the people present immediately turned to shock.

They had never heard of the method proposed by Wang Donglai before.

If this were actually done, I'm afraid some people who don't have the academic qualifications would not dare to come.

Otherwise, if someone arrives but cannot produce an attendance code, fails the verification, and cannot participate in the conference, it would be tantamount to directly exposing their true academic level.

"Of course, in order to attract more scholars to participate, we can also offer some incentives."

"Whether it's a cash reward or a medal, these are all things we can consider."

"Where there are carrots, there must be sticks."

"We do not restrict the invitation letters. We can send invitations to renowned scholars around the world, or we can reserve an invitation letter application channel on the official website for individuals to apply."

"If they are willing to participate, then everything is negotiable. But if some scholars and institutions refuse our invitation, we can put them on the 'unfriendly academic institution list' and suspend their use of quantum supercomputers, etc."

"Today, we are no longer the weak and vulnerable nation we once were."

"A country's strength should be comprehensive, encompassing both hard technological capabilities and soft cultural development."

"In my opinion, this time it may not be all bad. If we can really take advantage of this opportunity to form our own academic system, then it will be a great thing."

“Here, academic research takes pride in Western recognition. Submitting our academic papers to Western judges puts us at a disadvantage from the very beginning.”

"Academic discrimination is something everyone acknowledges. Does that mean there really wasn't anyone in China who could win the Fields Medal before me? I don't think so!"

"To be honest, I only received these awards because if they weren't given to me, they would be questioned by the authorities, so they had no choice but to give them to me."

“These words shouldn’t have been spoken by a young person like me. I’m not a leader, so it would be presumptuous of me to say them.”

"However, as a local scholar, I believe I have this obligation."

"Because it is not only about my academic reputation, but also about the future and voice of all of us and future scholars."

"It benefits the present and future generations; that is the true significance of this matter."

After Wang Donglai finished speaking, the expressions of everyone present became serious.

"Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading!"

"Academician Wang truly deserves to be the person who founded Galaxy Technology, a company with international competitiveness. His words are truly thought-provoking and I have learned a great deal from them!" The president exclaimed first.

"Indeed, following Donglai's advice is the best choice for both us and for the future."

“Scholarship should be pure, but the Western academic world today has clearly changed because of our rise, and political considerations have been incorporated into scholarship.”

"When Western scholarship has become less pure, we can no longer follow past experience and continue to act according to their rules."

"There are no unchanging rules in the world. Just because I have led the development of global science and technology in the Western academic community for so many years does not mean that they can continue indefinitely."

"Now that we have top mathematicians like Donglai who have broken the West's monopoly on the field of mathematics, we can take advantage of this opportunity to strike while the iron is hot, solidify our voice in the field of mathematics, and truly wrest back our authority in this area from the West."

Those who can achieve the status of academician are certainly not fools.

Even those who weren't particularly interested in politics understood what to do after Wang Donglai had gone to such lengths.

The key point is that the suggestions Wang Donglai made were beneficial to everyone.

Except for those who rely on the West, whose interests are all in the West, and whose thoughts have already converted to the West.

It is foreseeable that when this news gets out, apart from foreign scholars who will be dissatisfied, domestic scholars will overwhelmingly agree.

After this matter was discussed, everyone's emotions were stirred up.

The topic gradually shifted to academic matters.

While everyone was chatting, Zhang Yitang suddenly spoke up and asked Wang Donglai, "Academician Wang, do you have any research to do recently?"

Hearing Zhang Yitang ask this question, everyone became a little curious.

Wang Donglai's academic and research abilities are evident to everyone, and they are all well aware of them.

From the moment he became famous, he has been creating miracles.

Hodge conjecture, Zhou conjecture, Goldbach conjecture, Mersenne primes, N/A equations...

Which one of them hasn't been a problem that has plagued the global mathematics community for decades or even centuries?

As a result, Wang Donglai solved these mathematical problems in no time at all.

After proving the Navier-Stokes equations, Wang Donglai turned his attention to other fields, much to the relief and disappointment of many mathematicians.

To be fair, Wang Donglai's sudden emergence is both a good thing and a source of some trouble for scholars who have been in academia for many years.

The advantage is that, although they cannot prove the world's mathematical problems, they still have the ability to publish two papers by studying Wang Donglai's proof process.

As long as you can publish a paper, everything will be fine.

However, this also raises questions about their academic standing. Why is Wang Donglai only a professor despite solving so many mathematical problems, while the academicians have made such achievements?

Amid such skepticism, Wang Donglai naturally became the youngest academician in China.

Even so, some people who were elected as academicians based on their seniority have seen a significant decline in their academic influence.

Therefore, Wang Donglai had such complex emotions when he shifted his focus away from mathematics.

at this time.

Hearing Zhang Yitang ask this question, Wang Donglai laughed and said, "This year, I've focused most of my energy on Galaxy Aerospace and haven't deliberately done any mathematical research."

A hint of disappointment involuntarily appeared on everyone's faces.

Although they had guessed this might be the outcome, everyone was still disappointed when they actually heard it.

"but……"

Just when everyone was feeling disappointed, Wang Donglai's unexpected remark immediately brought everyone's interest back.

"Although I didn't deliberately study it, I gained some insights into solving aerospace problems."

What a twist!

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a surge of joy.

They simply knew Wang Donglai's research and development capabilities all too well.

The small gain he mentioned was only for himself.

To outsiders, that would be a major discovery.

Who knows, he might even be able to write a few core academic papers.

Thinking of this, everyone became even more excited.

"This is one of the reasons why GalaxySpace has been able to launch so many rocket missions without failure and has the technological confidence to set up lunar exploration and manned lunar landing missions."

Even though everyone was somewhat prepared, they were still taken aback when they heard Wang Donglai say that.

GalaxySpace's achievements are known worldwide.

Even with technical assistance from an aerospace group, a private enterprise shouldn't be developing this fast.

While this might not seem surprising in Wang Donglai's case, it does make it clear that he must have made a significant breakthrough in some field; otherwise, this wouldn't have happened.

And now, Wang Donglai's words have undoubtedly confirmed this.

"Some specific things may be sensitive, so I haven't written a paper about them, let alone talked about them."

"However, I do have an idea now."

"Since we are going to hold a mathematics summit and compete with the global mathematicians' congress, it will be difficult to achieve the desired effect if we don't have something of our own to offer."

"I might as well take this opportunity to give a special speech and also have an academic discussion with scholars from around the world."

"If we don't show some real talent, they'll think we're not capable."

"I'd like to see how they respond."

"With this, I think we can also attract some internationally renowned scholars, which will be a good opportunity to assess their abilities."

A slight smile curved Wang Donglai's lips, but his eyes held a hint of amusement.

Seeing this, everyone felt a pang of sympathy and pity for the internationally renowned scholars who had not yet arrived. (End of Chapter)
