He happened to be referring to the watch that Wang Mo was interested in. Although Wang Mo couldn't afford it, he actually won people's love in front of him. This was a bit of a naked provocation.
Wang Mo looked back angrily and saw a handsome guy with blond hair and blue eyes. When he saw Wang Mo looking back at him, he actually smiled at Wang Mo.
Wang Mo knew that he didn't mean it, it just happened that the two of them liked the same watch, but they could afford it, but he could only take a look.
After the foreign guy paid the money, Wang Mo vowed to find a suitable opportunity to make some money after he went back. It didn't need to be too much, but it had to be enough for his normal expenses. As a time traveler, he was insulted by a foreigner with money.
Wow, this is so embarrassing for time-travelers.
Just when Wang Mo was about to leave, the handsome foreign guy stopped Wang Mo and said, "Hello, please wait a moment. Are you also here to participate in IMO?"
Song Songbai didn't understand and could only look at Wang Mo, meaning to leave it to you.
"Of course, how did you know!" Wang Mo replied politely.
"You are wearing the representative clothes of China. I saw it at the opening ceremony that day."
"I didn't expect to meet my colleagues. Hello, we are Wang Mo from the Chinese national team, and this is Song Songbai." Wang Mo touched Song Songbai and asked him to smile politely.
"Hello, I'm from the German team. My name is Peter Schulz. You can call me Schulz." The handsome foreign guy introduced himself happily, as if he was very honored to meet foreign friends.
"Did you say your name is Schulz, or are you from Germany?" Wang Mo asked in surprise.
"Why have you heard of me?" Schulz asked curiously.
"Oh, I've heard about you. I heard that you are very talented in mathematics." Wang Mo could only say vaguely.
"Thank you so much for your compliment. It makes me feel very ashamed. This is my first time participating in such a high-level event, but I didn't perform very well this time, which is a bit regretful." Schulz said regretfully.<
/p>
"It doesn't matter. There will be another time. I'll see if you're not too old." Wang Mo
"Yeah, I just entered middle school this year." Schultz
"Then we are really destined. I have just entered middle school. I believe we will meet again in the future." Wang Mo said meaningfully.
On the way back, Song Songbai asked curiously: "What did that handsome guy say to you just now? His attitude was very enthusiastic!"
"Nothing, he is from the German national team, and he also came to participate in this IMO competition. He said he has great respect for our Chinese national team." Wang Mo said nonsensically.
"Of course, that's what he said. We were the number one group last time, and I believe we will be the same this time." Song Songbai said proudly.
After returning to the room, Wang Mo lay on the bed, thinking about the meeting with Schultz just now. He did not expect to meet him here.
Anyone who knows the past in the field of mathematics will be familiar with the name Schultz. In the entire field of mathematics, he hangs high in the sky like a bright star. He participated in IMO four times and won three IMO gold medals, and then entered Bonn.
After studying at university, he completed four-year university courses in one and a half years, and it only took him one year to graduate from graduate school and study directly for a Ph.D. His graduate thesis actually made his supervisor think that he could directly graduate with a Ph.D.
From here on, Schultz started to cheat. During his PhD, he began to win various mathematics awards. When he was 24 years old, he received the honor of being a lifelong professor at the University of Bonn. If you say that maybe his alma mater wanted to make him famous.
He just did this, and at the same time he also obtained the qualification of a tenured professor at the University of Berkeley in the United States, but he declined.
After that, he became a well-deserved star in the mathematics world. He cheated all the way and won the Fields Medal, the highest honor in mathematics, at the age of 31. He was only at the golden age of his life and could win it in the next 30 years.
Higher achievements.
He is also the most outstanding mathematician Professor Faltings thinks he has ever seen, and the one with the most potential.
Wang Mo wants to win the Fields Medal before the age of 40. The first enemy is himself, and the other is Schultz. If he cannot surpass him, he will not have the confidence to win the highest honor in mathematics. p>
The reason why Wang Mo planned to participate in IMO three times in a row was to make a name for himself. Why Schulz was able to learn all the undergraduate knowledge in one and a half years is inextricably related to the knowledge he self-taught in college in middle school.
.
In the same three-year high school career, Wang Mo accumulated his own foundation. Only in this way can he become a blockbuster in college.
Every international award is not only awarded to outstanding scientific workers, but also to discover more geniuses. Scientists all over the world have high hopes for geniuses and also have some preferential treatment.
If an unknown person suddenly discovers an unknown thing one day, this invention can win him the Nobel Prize, and at the same time, a genius scientist also discovers it. The two of them published a paper at the same time, and the world
They will only praise the genius of science, and no one will pay attention to this unknown scientist.
No matter what industry you are in, building momentum is essential. Just like some people in ancient times who wanted to rebel, before they rebelled, they were not allowed to let people go out to publicize their differences to build momentum for them. This is the same reason. p>
Although doing this is somewhat utilitarian, Wang Mo has to do it in order to complete the task. Why are foreign countries not very friendly to Chinese scientists? Wang Mo can only find another way, otherwise he will need to do it if he wants to win the Fields Medal.
Make higher achievements than others.
Just like Schulz, although he is very famous and indeed a genius, after he won the Fields Medal, he did not prove any particularly outstanding theorems or conjectures.
Professor Faltings and Professor Deligne, who are as talented as him, have proved the Model Conjecture and the Weil Conjecture at the same age. They were praised by the mathematical community for these two outstanding achievements. Therefore, Wang Mo does not believe that Schultz won the Fields Medal without the blessing of his reputation. With the blessing of fame, if you make a great contribution, it will not be as simple as one plus one.
It will cause a qualitative change by then.
This is also the path that Wang Mo has arranged for himself. Of course, there must be many twists and turns in the process, and Wang Mo needs to give 100% of his sweat to achieve success.
When I think that I have known Schultz so early, and that he participated in IMO like me, it is like a script, it is so wonderful.
If I can crush Schultz all the way and win various honors, then I will be the one praised by the mathematics community, and Schultz can only serve as a backdrop for me.
