Chapter 39 Tell me, what else are you hiding from me? Because Xiao Dajie was busy and couldn't leave, he entrusted the matter of early recruitment of Lu Shan to the school's admissions office. I also hope that the admissions office can start the process immediately. The independent enrollment procedure of Shuimu University is relatively complicated. It requires applying, providing relevant student information, and the specific conditions for why admission is required without examination. After applying to the college, you should apply to the school, and the process will be initiated only after the school agrees. At the same time, it involves issues of student files and academic status. Mizuki University also needs to communicate with the local admissions department. But Xiao Dajie had a request: to get someone as soon as possible. Two days later, teachers from Shuimu University's admissions office set off for Jiangzhou, preparing to recruit rare and talented students in advance according to Xiao Dajie's request. In the past two days, the media have also figured out what the "Annals of Mathematics" is, what the twin prime conjecture is, and even how difficult it is for ordinary Chinese people to publish papers in the "Annals of Mathematics". The media also found out the authors of the paper. One was Professor Tang Yi, a mathematician with great influence worldwide. The other was Lu Shan, who turned out to be a senior student at Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School.
Many media outlets were excited. They immediately interviewed mathematics professionals at home and abroad and fully understood the value of this paper. Now, there was no need for Jiangzhou University or Jiangzhou education and admissions departments to refute the rumor, and all the media immediately changed the direction of their reporting. The previous news questioning Jiangzhou University's admission of Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School student Lu Shan in advance without examination was changed to - Genius boy! Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School senior Lu Shan assisted Professor Tang Yi in solving the top mathematical problems that have troubled mankind for a century. Of course, there will definitely be some exaggeration in media reports. The title and content should be eye-catching. This time it's better. Lu Shan has almost become like Liu Yiting, the Harvard girl a few years ago, and has become a role model for many parents for their children to emulate. The catchphrase of many parents when educating their children has changed from "Look how great Liu Yiting is" to "Look how great Lu Shan is." At the same time, Olympic Mathematics, which was originally strictly required by relevant departments, has become even more popular. The boss of the Bluebird Training Institution in Jiangzhou City was very happy! Although Lu Shan's photo was not used to protect his privacy, the training institution used Lu Shan's name in the most conspicuous advertising position. The content of the advertisement was very straightforward: Congratulations to my training institution’s student Lu Shan for publishing his paper in the Annals of Mathematics. As a result, the business of Qingniao Training Institute was booming. The Olympiad classes were completely full, and the original small class that could only accommodate 30 people was expanded to 60. In addition, the National Mathematical Society also sent a congratulatory letter to Lu Shan to Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School. The person who felt the most uncomfortable was Director Feng from the CMO Organizing Committee. Many universities, organizing committees, and even relevant departments are asking Director Feng why Lu Shan’s results are not included in the list of results announced in this year’s Mathematical Olympiad finals, since he had communicated with Professor Tang Yi in the winter camp and published a paper together with Professor Tang Yi. Director Feng didn't know how to answer this question. Director Feng was so sad that he could not even cry.
Who knew Lu Shan could discuss philosophy with Professor Tang Yi and even publish a paper in the "Annals of Mathematics"? If I knew that Lu Shan could publish a paper in the Annals of Mathematics. Director Feng doesn’t care whether Lu Shan is a student who came in through normal channels or abnormal channels. Not only will they announce Lu Shan's results and award him the gold medal, but they will also invite Lu Shan to join the national mathematics Olympiad team and call him "uncle". But there is no such thing as regret medicine in this world. Everyone has to make the choice that is best for themselves. If Director Feng were to experience the last situation again, he would make the same choice. In the end, Director Feng was still punished by the organizing committee. The organizing committee determined that Director Feng had been seriously inactive in his work and demoted him. After seeing this situation, Team Leader Chen Liang also let out a long sigh. However, he was quite pleased that through his efforts, Lu Shan, a promising talent in mathematics in Xia State, would have a good future. … Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School, teachers' office. "Tell me, what else are you hiding from the teacher?" "I teach mathematics and study mathematics. The Annals of Mathematics is the world's top academic weekly. None of my doctoral supervisors, professors, scholars, and experts dared to submit their papers to the Annals of Mathematics when I was in college. It is a holy place in the hearts of mathematicians and an untouchable paradise." "You...you actually published a paper directly! And you published it together with Professor Tang Yi!" Wang Yongxiang, the head teacher of Class 3, Grade , Jiangzhou No. Middle School, invited Lu Shan to his office. His mind was a little confused and he didn't know how to communicate with Lu Shan. It seemed that overnight, he went from being an ordinary mathematics class teacher at Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School to a nationally renowned gold medal mathematics lecturer. Because of Lu Shan's paper, Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School was praised by the media as the cradle of mathematicians. And Lu Shan also became a young mathematical genius. Mr. Wang now has no way to communicate with Lu Shan as a teacher, because he feels that Lu Shan's achievements are far greater than his math teacher. Lu Shan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was within Tang Yi's expectation that Lu Shan's name would be included in the paper he published. But what Lu Shan started to consider was whether Tang Yi would thank him or mention him in the introduction or conclusion of the paper. I didn’t expect Tang Yi to be so straightforward. He directly put his name after his and became one of the authors of the paper. Lu Shan didn't learn about this news just by reading the paper or seeing the news. But a few days ago, the points soared by 300. [Remaining points: ] "Teacher Wang, when I was attending the Mathematical Olympiad training camp, I wrote a short paper about my thoughts on twin prime numbers and submitted it to Professor Tang Yi. I didn't expect that Professor Tang Yi would directly adopt it, and I didn't expect that Professor Tang Yi would write my name on the paper."
"I didn't expect the paper to be published in Annals of Mathematics. It was all luck." After hearing what Lu Shan said, Teacher Wang rolled his eyes inwardly. Lu Shan actually attributed the highest achievement that many mathematicians have been pursuing all their lives to luck. Why is he so unlucky! Teacher Wang: "Also, you got full marks in the Mathematical Olympiad finals. It was not because of many factors that the organizing committee did not announce your results." Lu Shan: "I'm not very lucky." Teacher Wong:"……" "Then what is this?" Teacher Wang placed Lu Shan's handwritten science and mathematics review notes on the table. "I see several students in our class have a copy each, and the contents of each copy seem to be slightly different." "This time, the math and science scores of several underachieving students in our class increased by several dozen points. Our class's comprehensive score also ranked first in the grade, and I was praised by Principal Guo." “I think this is all thanks to you!” "Many of the questions in your review notes are the same type of questions as in the second exam. How did you do that?" Lu Shan: "I just summarized it casually. After all, the content of the math and science exams is just that much. I wrote it down so that we can learn and improve together." Luck, whatever? Lao Wang became a little withdrawn. He thought that Lu Shan should be the head teacher. Lu Shan simply called the students who were lagging behind together to form a study group. After a month, their grades improved by several dozen points. However, after three years as the class teacher, he has found it difficult to help these poor students improve even a little. Teacher Wang sighed, "And then, the teachers from the admissions offices of Jiangzhou University and Shuimu University are still sitting in the conference room. They will admit you directly without taking the entrance exam or the college entrance exam. What do you think?" Thank you all for your recommendations! Please read on! Read on! Read on! Ah!
