The top student must be diligent.

Chapter 57 Is this reasonable?

One "huh?" can represent many different meanings.

But, there is no doubt that under the picture of the WeChat message from USTC High School, the blogger [Mathematical and Physical Events] commented “Ah?”, which fully expressed his shock.

Of course, it wasn’t just his “Ah?”, there were many more “Ah?” in the comment section of this picture.

All the netizens who saw this picture were shocked beyond words.

Of course, there are various other responses besides these "Huh?"

[No, buddy, is this picture of yours real or fake? If this was HKUST, I would understand, but isn’t this HKUST Affiliated High School a bit too much? ]

[Nah, HKUST High School is a high school, right? If it’s the 2020 graduates, then they’re only graduating this year? They haven’t even started college yet! ]

[Impossible, absolutely impossible! It's all fake. I'm a PhD student in mathematics at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I have to work hard to get my hair published in a domestic core journal. How is it possible that someone can publish in IHES right after graduating from high school? Hahahaha, it must be fake! It's ridiculous! It's ridiculous!]

[Another one has gone crazy. Take him away.]

[Oh my god, it seems to be true?! I checked the WeChat public account of USTC High School and they really pushed this message!]

[Fuck! I just checked, that public account really posted this message! ]

【ah? ? 】

[By the way, I remember that the top scorer in science in Anhui Province this year was named Xiao Yi? Could it be this Xiao Yi? ]

【…】

Amidst various speculations, all netizens who saw this news were increasingly shocked.

Those in the joint examination group were also shocked.

After everyone read this Weibo post, the group fell silent again.

Until a while later.

Luo Xiao from Shanghai Jiao Tong University: [@HKUST-Xiao Yi, God Xiao! Look, there is a mathematician with the same name as you]

Maybe this guy is quite talented in mathematics, but he is always a step slow in reacting to things like this.

After a while, someone finally responded.

Jinghang-Chen Lue: [Is it possible? I mean, is there such a possibility that this Xiao Yi is the same Xiao Yi? ]

Shanghai Jiaotong University-Luo Xiao: [What? Is this true? Do you mean that Xiao Shen is the author of this paper? ]

Jingda-Chen Muhua: [Brother, why did you say that again? ! Please stop talking! ]

【Please stop talking! 】*n.

Jingda-Lupin: [Xiao Shen is from HKUST, that makes sense. Xiao Shen is also an alumnus of HKUST High School, a graduate of the class of 2020, that also makes sense. The pinyin of the author's name in that paper is indeed XiaoYi, that makes sense again, oh my god! ]

If Xiao Yi's 101 points was a blow to them, then this paper was a complete nuclear strike.

Is this verification?

Aren’t we all young people of seventeen or eighteen years old?
Why are you so different? These young mathematicians seemed to feel the deep malice from the world.

It even made them wonder why they should be from the same era as Xiao Yi.

Since Yi was born, why did I come into being?
Just when the students were so depressed that they became autistic, the professors who had been lurking most of the time were finally attracted by this information and appeared in the group.

Qinghua-Professor Liu Min: [What are you talking about? Student Xiao Yi published a paper? ]

After a moment, someone responded.

Qinghua-Jiang Long: [Professor Liu, can you please scroll up? It is in the Weibo message above.]

Qinghua-Professor Liu Min: [Okay, let me take a look.]

Then, there was no news about Professor Liu Min.

However, the faculty and staff group of Qinghua School of Mathematics next door exploded.

Even the academicians of Qinghua University couldn’t help but come to the group to ask: [Xiao Yi from HKUST published a paper on IHES? ? ]

Finally, the Internet began to show its speed in spreading news.

It didn't take long before the entire Chinese mathematics community knew the news that evening.

Then, just as Liu Bin and others had guessed before, the mathematics community was shocked.
In all math-related group chats, forums, social media, and forums, you can see this sentence: [Have you heard? A high school graduate published a paper on IHES! Peter Schultz read it and said it was great! ]
As the news continued to spread, this matter finally went viral and began to spread outside.

After all, people like to pay attention to geniuses and marvel at their talents, which is why "The Brain" was so popular back then.

As a result, the popularity gradually increased, and a new entry appeared on Weibo's hot searches.

#A Chinese high school graduate published a paper in a top international mathematics journal#
When I clicked on this hot search, I saw that it was an article posted by the blogger named [Mathematical and Physical Events].

Of course, this article is not the previous one, but a new one he wrote.

[After inquiring from many sources, I also contacted the editorial department of IHES and asked the editor there. Finally, it was confirmed that the author of "Non-Singularity Analysis and Absolute Far-Abel Conjecture" is Xiao Yi, a graduate of the Affiliated Middle School of China University of Science and Technology this year, who is also the top scorer in science in Anhui Province and won the title of "National Top Scorer" with a total score of 741 in the college entrance examination.

When I confirmed this, my heart was filled with disbelief, because friends who have paid attention to the hot searches during the college entrance examination period should all know that this classmate Xiao Yi did not take the college entrance examination as a senior high school student, but as a sophomore. In other words, he is not 18 years old this year, but 17 years old.

To be honest, I was deeply shocked. My old fans who are familiar with me should all know my academic qualifications. I have a master's degree in mathematics and a doctorate in physics from the National University of Singapore. As for why I studied mathematics for my master's degree and physics for my doctorate, I believe those who understand know that pure mathematics is too difficult. I had no choice but to study theoretical physics.

A journal like IHES was my dream when I was studying pure mathematics, but unfortunately, it was not until I graduated with my master's degree that I was able to publish a paper in the first zone with the help of my supervisor.

Today, after seeing this news, I deeply realized how huge the gap between people can be. He achieved my dream goal at the age of 17. I can only say...

Is this reasonable?

Oh, forget it, I won’t say too much.

You can feel it for yourself. Now I just want to smoke a cigarette and calm down.

Of course, I am also very happy that such a mathematical genius can appear in our country, and I hope that he can continue to exert his talent. Perhaps, at a future International Congress of Mathematicians, we can see a young Chinese person stepping onto the podium to receive the Fields Medal. 】
