Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 472: Everyone is trying to become excellent
Noticing Chen Zhou's expression, Yang Yiyi asked curiously, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you win an award from the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians?"
Chen Zhou nodded gently: "It is indeed not an award from the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians..."
Yang Yiyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked: "What is that?"
While asking this question, Yang Yiyi rolled her eyes at Chen Zhou speechlessly.
You didn't win any award from the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians, so why are you asking me so many questions about the World Congress of Chinese Mathematicians?
I thought you were going to this conference to receive the award...
Chen Zhou replied: "It is the Chern Mathematics Award of the Chinese Mathematical Society."
Hearing this, Yang Yiyi asked in confusion, "Isn't the Chern Mathematics Award of the Chinese Mathematical Society awarded only in October every year?"
Chen Zhou couldn't give Yang Yiyi a specific explanation.
After all, he got the information from Yao Tongtong.
As for the specific situation, we may only know it when he is invited to attend the conference.
So Chen Zhou said, "Who cares? It's a good thing to win a prize. When I get the prize money, I'll take you to eat something delicious~"
Yang Yiyi chuckled and nodded and said "Okay".
Putting aside other factors, when Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi are together, the only thing that cannot be missed is food.
Especially Yang Yiyi is a little foodie.
After finishing this topic, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi went straight back to the hotel.
Chen Zhou has already booked a ticket back to western Anhui in the afternoon.
Now that everything in Yanjing has been dealt with, why not get away as soon as possible...
As the train sped along, Chen Zhou said goodbye to Zhao Qiqi and a group of friends on the high-speed rail.
It was already 7:30 in the evening when we arrived in Luzhou City.
As for why Chen Zhou and the others came to Luzhou?
One reason is the number of high-speed rail tickets. There are more high-speed trains from Yanjing to Luzhou in the south.
The second is to find Huang Jiayi, Zhang Yifan and others for another small gathering.
Of course, there were not only Huang Jiayi and Zhang Yifan, but also Li Xiang and Chen Haining.
This also saves Chen Haining from having to make phone calls and arrange gatherings with people.
After leaving the high-speed rail station, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi first took a taxi to the hotel, and then began to contact Huang Jiayi and others.
Speaking of which, Huang Jiayi and Zhang Yifan began to maintain close contact since their last drink.
By now, the two have become very familiar with each other.
In Huang Jiayi's own words, he spends more time communicating with Zhang Yifan than with his girlfriend.
Of course, the initiator of this close communication was Huang Jiayi.
As for the reason why Huang Jiayi took the initiative to contact Zhang Yifan, it was because he saw the drastic changes in Chen Zhou.
He decided to improve himself!
Commonly known as, postgraduate entrance examination!
Huang Jiayi's target school is the University of Science and Technology of China where Zhang Yifan is studying.
Although both universities are located in the capital of Anhui Province, it is still difficult for Huang Jiayi to jump from Anhui Agricultural University to China University of Science and Technology.
Therefore, this guy thought of using Zhang Yifan, an extremely outstanding "native" of the University of Science and Technology of China, to help himself and improve himself in order to meet the requirements of the University of Science and Technology of China.
At the party, when Huang Jiayi talked about this place, his eyes were full of envy when he looked at Chen Zhou.
Of course, I envy Chen Zhou not only for his joint training at Yanda and MIT, but also for his having Yang Yiyi...
Because everyone present knows that Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi are not only lovers, but also people who supervise and learn from each other.
So, Huang Jiayi also wants to have a partner like this...
Unfortunately, my girlfriend, like me, is not a top student.
Therefore, Huang Jiayi could only settle for the second best and find a good friend who could supervise his studies.
It was in this context that Zhang Yifan became Huang Jiayi's first choice target.
When Huang Jiayi asked Chen Zhou for his phone number, Chen Zhou was still wondering why Huang Jiayi wanted Zhang Yifan's phone number?
Until this moment, Chen Zhou finally realized.
As for why Huang Jiayi did not ask Chen Zhou to help him improve his studies, one reason was that Chen Zhou was too far away and he did not want to engage in a cross-border learning exchange.
The second reason is that Huang Jiayi felt that since Chen Zhou was treating difficult problems like the Goldbach conjecture as his own research topic, how could he have time to teach him?
Moreover, he was also afraid that his own affairs would delay the progress of Chen Zhou's research project.
After all, this is a topic that China and the whole world are paying attention to.
Of course, Huang Jiayi never mentioned the postgraduate entrance examination to Chen Zhou.
Because he believed that if he proposed it, Chen Zhou would definitely agree.
But as for Huang Jiayi himself, he feels that solving the Goldbach conjecture is far more important than his postgraduate entrance examination.
Moreover, through close contact with Zhang Yifan, Huang Jiayi has already felt that he is growing.
In addition, while having an in-depth communication with Huang Jiayi, Zhang Yifan himself was not idle either.
Ever since I helped Chen Zhou on the last project and witnessed how powerful Chen Zhou was, as well as the attractive project bonus that followed.
Zhang Yifan began to plan himself strictly according to Chen Zhou's model.
Of course, his plan is longer and more stable than Chen Zhou's real-time plan.
After all, Zhang Yifan cannot reach Chen Zhou's research efficiency, learning efficiency, and thinking agility.
Therefore, his plans are all long-term.
However, as long as you persist, there will be results.
This is a universal statement, and naturally it also applies to Zhang Yifan.
Zhang Yifan's efforts also made him one of the top ten outstanding college students of the year at China University of Science and Technology.
He is also the only chemistry student among the top ten outstanding college students of the year at China University of Science and Technology.
Although during the dinner, Zhang Yifan kept saying that his Cole Number Theory Prize was not as good as Chen Zhou's.
But deep down, he was actually very proud.
In any case, when he went to Maochang High School to repeat his senior year, he could never have imagined that he would become an outstanding student of the China University of Science and Technology.
At first, he just felt that he did not do well in the exam and was unwilling to accept the result.
However, he didn't dare to think about an institution like the University of Science and Technology of China.
Therefore, at the party, Zhang Yifan thanked Chen Zhou from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren’t for Chen Zhou, if it weren’t for the impact of Chen Zhou’s own changes.
He must have gotten lost in the tiny bit of achievement when he achieved what he expected.
Besides Zhang Yifan, Li Xiang and Chen Haining also expressed their gratitude.
The people sitting in the front and back seats back then were deeply influenced by Chen Zhou.
He called Chen Zhou "Brother Chen" and couldn't help but learn and imitate Chen Zhou's behavior.
It is particularly worth mentioning that Li Xiang has now become an excellent student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
This outstanding student is different from Zhang Yifan’s top ten outstanding students.
This means that Li Xiang has won the favor of professors at Shanghai University of Technology in academic research and has also received key training from Shanghai University of Technology.
Even after entering his junior year this year, Li Xiang was told that the school was willing to recommend him to study for a master's degree in the biology department of the school.
After completing his master's degree, he will be recommended to continue his studies at a foreign university with which we have exchanges and cooperation.
Li Xiang had exactly the same idea as Zhang Yifan. He also felt that if it weren't for the influence of Chen Zhou's exciting changes, he would not have been able to achieve his current results.
However, the person who was most influenced by Chen Zhou was still Chen Haining.
When he was repeating a grade at Maochang High School, he suspected that Chen Zhou had enrolled in a liberal arts cram school, so he tried it himself.
However, the final result was not very satisfactory.
He only stood up for that one time, and there was no follow-up...
But Chen Haining can be said to have really tried various things to get close to Chen Zhou.
Now that he is in college, Chen Haining is also the person who pays the most attention to Chen Zhou's movements.
In his opinion, Chen Zhou is the best one.
Only by following excellent people can you become equally excellent or surpass that excellent person.
Although he chose the Department of Finance, which does not belong to the category of natural sciences.
However, the Department of Finance is a discipline that is closely related to applied mathematics.
People who are not good at math will definitely not be good at studying finance.
On the contrary, many people who are good at mathematics have switched to the financial industry.
As the world's top mathematics university, Princeton University has many outstanding mathematics graduates every year who immediately join the financial wave of Wall Street.
As for the reasons, the most fundamental one is that mathematics is boring, but money is not.
Although Chen Zhou had not asked Chen Haining why he chose the Finance Department, he thought it should be the case.
At today's party, his words were also confirmed by Chen Haining.
Of course, the reason for the confirmation was that Chen Haining took the initiative to say it, not Chen Zhou or anyone else who asked.
Chen Haining said with great emotion: "Brother Chen, you don't know that there are very few people like you who have achieved such success at such a young age and won millions of bonuses."
"Generally speaking, everyone is an ordinary person, going to school, finding a job, and accumulating wealth, but this is an extremely slow process."
"So, from a certain perspective, if you solve three world-class mathematical conjectures in one year, you can already accumulate as much wealth as an average person would in a lifetime."
"As for me, I don't think I can compare to you, Yiyi, Yifan and Li Xiang, so I want to live a more secular life. I want to use my only talent for mathematics to quickly accumulate wealth in the financial field."
Chen Haining said this after drinking.
But these words were truly from his heart.
So, when Chen Haining finished speaking, Chen Zhou picked up his glass and said, "Haining, the Nobel Prize in Economics also exists..."
Chen Haining glanced at Chen Zhou, not sure whether he was just talking drunkenly or using the alcohol to give himself courage.
He suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Chen, if I can accumulate wealth before I turn 30, I will work hard for the Nobel Prize in Economics that you mentioned!"
When Chen Zhou heard this, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
However, this idea was quickly suppressed by Chen Zhou.
It's not the right time yet.
Chen Zhou looked at Chen Haining and said, "Fuck!"
Chen Haining : “Fuck!”
They both raised their heads at the same time and drank it all in one gulp.
Chen Haining might not have thought about the impact this gathering would have on his future.
After the party, Chen Zhou and others were walking on the street.
When passing by the East Campus of China University of Science and Technology, Huang Jiayi pointed at this top academic university in China and said in a resounding voice: "Next year, I will definitely get in!"
That night, looking at the gradually maturing faces, Chen Zhou suddenly understood one thing.
Some people always talk about changing the world, but in fact the best way to change the world is to change the world.
Just start by changing yourself.
Changes in oneself are like a seed of hope, which will always affect the people around you.
More or less, it subtly changes the people around you.
Huang Jiayi, Zhang Yifan, Li Xiang, Chen Haining, and Yang Yiyi all confirmed this.
They are all striving to be excellent.
After settling everyone down, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi returned to the hotel.
On the way back to the hotel, Yang Yiyi kept looking at Chen Zhou in confusion.
She thought this man had drunk too much.
Why do you always have a smile on your face?
He gently kissed Yang Yiyi on the forehead and said good night to each other.
Chen Zhou returned to his room whistling.
Although the relationship between Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi has been confirmed for such a long time.
But the last layer between the two people has not been broken.
Have a good night.
Chen Zhou slept very well and woke up by himself at 7:50 the next morning.
After taking out his cell phone and confirming his ticket home for today, Chen Zhou got up and washed up.
After having breakfast with Yang Yiyi, the two of them set off for the station together.
As for Huang Jiayi and the others, they did not go with Chen Zhou and the others.
After all, some people have to work hard to get ashore, and some people have to have in-depth and close exchanges with those who work hard...
After accompanying Yang Yiyi to Wanxi City, Chen Zhou first sent Yang Yiyi back home.
Then after having a quick meal, I took the bus home.
Just a few minutes after Chen Zhou got in the car, his cell phone rang.
Chen Zhou took out his cell phone and took a look at it. He frowned slightly, but soon relaxed again.
He pressed the answer button and greeted with a smile: "Hello, reporter Yao."
Yao Tongtong on the other end of the phone was currently with the friend who provided her with the gossip.
As soon as she heard Chen Zhou's voice, she immediately said, "Hello, Mr. Chen, where are you now? I have something to talk to you about..."
Chen Zhou secretly said to himself, "As expected," and said to Yao Tongtong, "Reporter Yao, I'm on my way home now. If you have anything to say, just talk over the phone."
When Yao Tongtong heard what Chen Zhou said, she looked at her friend and asked softly.
After getting the answer from her friend, Yao Tongtong told Chen Zhou: "It's about the Chern Mathematics Award awarded by the Chinese Mathematical Society. My previous information was too one-sided..."
"The Mathematicians' Conference after the New Year will be a grand mathematical event for China and the Chinese..."
