nLin Fan’s participation in the mathematical modeling competition was a surprise?

nHe did it just for fun?

nLin Fan going to defend his thesis was bullying?

nThe dean of the School of Mathematics, Hu Chuan, said a few words in a row that completely confused Zhang Yong.

n‘This…’

nWhat was going on?

nHowever, Hu Chuan was not prepared to explain any further.

nShen Liang, the chancellor of Jiangbei University, walked over.

nHu Chuan quickly went up to welcome him and invited Shen Liang to sit at the main seat.

nHowever, Shen Liang said, “Today is a big event for your Mathematics Department. You should be the one leading. So, it’s most suitable for you to take the main seat.”

nAfter Hu Chuan gave way for a while, he still sat on the seat as instructed.

nThen, he looked out of the door from time to time as if he was waiting for someone, but there was no trace of that person.

n“Director Hu, when is the meeting starting?” a professor asked impatiently. “I still have a lot of things to deal with.”

n“Yeah, I’m still waiting to start a project.”

n…

nHu Chuan saw that more and more people were dissatisfied.

nFinally, he cleared his throat and said, “Then let’s talk about something first.

n“Many people might not know this, but not long ago, someone from our school solved Zhou’s Conjecture.”

nAs soon as he said that, the professors who were still grumbling immediately stopped.

nThen, the entire conference room was in an uproar.

nSome of them might not be teachers or leaders of the mathematics major.

nHowever, they knew what was Zhou’s Conjecture.

nIf one could solve it, it would be a huge step forward for the entire mathematics world!

nThis big step was actually pushed by Jiangbei University!

nHow could they not be excited?

n“Dean Hu, which professor solved Zhou’s Conjecture?”

n“May I ask if you were the one who solved it?”

n“Has the answer passed the review?”

n…

nA series of questions shot out like cannonballs.

nThe professors, who had always been modest and gentlemanly, were now like believers who had suddenly heard the will of God and could not help shouting.

nHu Chuan said, “When Zhou’s Conjecture was solved, a few professors and I jointly checked it. Then, we compiled it into a paper and submitted it to the Mathematics Journal.

n“Today, the Mathematics Journal replied to the email. The answer is correct!

n“At the same time, the World Mathematics Organization also sent us an invitation. They hope that the people who solved Zhou’s Conjecture can go to Poston and hold a large-scale report!”

nWhen Hu Chuan said this, there was a hint of unconcealable excitement in his tone.

nPoston was undoubtedly one of the holy lands of mathematics.

nCountless mathematicians would be proud to host a report in Poston.

nThe large-scale report was the most high-level report!

nTo anyone, this was an absolute honor, a supreme honor!

n“A large-scale report in Poston?”

n“Oh my God!”

n“Dean Hu, quickly tell us, who’s the person who solved Zhou’s Conjecture?”

n…

nHu Chuan said, “The person who solved Zhou’s Conjecture is… Lin Fan!”

nWhoosh!

nThe moment he said that, there was an uproar.

nZhang Yong’s eyes were wide open, and he was completely stunned.

nWhat did he just hear?

nLin Fan solved Zhou’s Conjecture?

nThat young undergraduate student?

nAt this moment, Zhang Yong finally understood why Hu Chuan had said that Lin Fan’s participation in the mathematical modeling competition was just for fun.

nHe finally understood how Lin Fan would be bullying others by participating in the oral defense.

nFor someone who solved Zhou’s Conjecture to participate in the mathematical modeling competition was like a high school student taking a kindergarten exam!

nIf this was not bullying, what was?

nHu Chuan continued, “The main purpose of today’s meeting is to make preparations for this report. It’s to promote Zhou’s Conjecture.

n“It’s best to wait for Lin Fan to come over and discuss all of this…”

nHe then looked at the time and said, “Lin Fan might have been delayed by something. Everyone, please wait a moment. I’ll give him a call to ask.”

nAfter saying that, Hu Chuan walked to the side and made a call.

nAt that moment, Lin Fan was sleeping and was a little dazed. He picked up the call.

n“Lin Fan, did you receive the news I sent you about the meeting this morning?” Hu Chuan said.

n“A meeting? What kind of meeting?” Lin Fan said in a daze.

n“You solved Zhou’s Conjecture. The World Mathematics Organization has invited you to go to Poston and organize a large-scale report!” Hu Chuan said.

nHe had already said that earlier.

nEven though he was just repeating it, he could not help but feel excited.

n“Host a report at Poston? I’m not going.” After Lin Fan finished speaking, he hung up the phone and went back to dreamland.

nIt was not because Lin Fan was still in a daze.

nEven if he was awake, Lin Fan would still give the same answer.

nGo to Poston to host a report?

nIn Lin Fan’s heart, this could not even compare to going to Jingbei for the oral defense!

nThat was because Poston was farther away than the capital!

nMoreover, he had to face a bunch of questions from foreigners.

nHe… He was not interested at all.

nAfter the call was hung up, Hu Chuan was stunned for a few seconds.

nIt was obvious that he had not reacted to Lin Fan’s answer.

nAfter a while, Hu Chuan picked up his phone and dialed Lin Fan’s number again. He was prepared to explain the situation.

nHowever, the only response Hu Chuan got was that Lin Fan’s phone was switched off.

nHu Chuan was at a loss as he walked toward his seat.

n“Director Hu, is Lin Fan here?” a professor asked in a hurry. He could not wait to see the person who solved Zhou’s Conjecture.

n“He’s not going to Poston for the report,” Hu Chuan said, stunned.

nSilence!

nThe entire conference room suddenly fell silent.

nEveryone’s face was filled with disbelief.

nThis was even more shocking than hearing that someone had solved Zhou’s Conjecture!
