The news is always flying faster than the plane, not to mention the news is already running in the country before Lu Zhou is on the plane back to China. .

The first report was naturally an interview with tv.

This is different from the previous newsletter that only appeared in the news link/broadcast. This time, CCTV really regarded him as a hot news of current events, put it in the news/broadcast feature film, and used it. In 1 minute, introduce the Goldbach conjecture and the Crawford Award.

Goldbach guessed the term, and most people who heard about Chen Jingrun and "1+2" ​​would not be unfamiliar. But the Crawford Award is unfamiliar to most people.

After all, no one in the country has ever won this award, and the country naturally does not deliberately do this kind of propaganda. The insiders certainly understand the gold content of this award. As for the rest of the people, there is no need to understand things that are not related to them.

But now that someone has won this award, the meaning is naturally different.

Basic science is a relatively weak area in China compared to applied science, but weakness does not mean giving up. Although the weight of a Crawford Prize is not comparable to the real Nobel Prize, it is still quite weighty in the entire natural sciences.

The emergence of a distinguished scholar, especially a young scholar, is enormous for both the national self-confidence and the driving force for the development of the entire field. This effect will not be immediately reflected in the paper data, but it will be produced in a subtle way, subtly changing...

In the small town of Gangneung, the Lujia family sat at the table to eat.

In the TV, just in the news.

Moreover, it happened to be an interview with CCTV by CCTV reporters.

When I heard the familiar voice, the little girl who was eating and looking up looked up and saw the familiar face, and the deer-like eyes suddenly widened.

"Wo... old, old brother?!"

"Girls don't swear! I have to go to college right away, quiet!"

Fang Mei counted as little as usual, but the tone was not as strong, because her eyes were also staring at the TV and could not move.

As for the old land, it was completely stunned, let alone forget the education, and even the chopsticks on the side of the bowl stopped.

"This kid... even the Nobel Prize is taken?"

Xiao Yan vomited aside: "Dad, you are old and dizzy when you are fifty, and everyone is clearly taking the Crawford Award."

"Hey, what are you talking about? This little thing..." Although Lu Lu was reprimanded on his mouth, his face was too happy to close his mouth.

When I saw this news, he didn't eat any food. He got up and went to the mobile phone and gave his son a fight.

The first time I didn't get through, I heard a busy tone.

The second time I hit it, the call was made.

"Hey, you guys can mix outside, don't you scream?"

Listening to the familiar voice in the mobile phone, I just walked off the plane and said, haha ​​smiled.

"This is not to give you a surprise."

It’s boring to say on the phone. It’s estimated that I have to tell the old man that there is no difference between the Nobel Prize, the Crawford Prize and the Nobel Prize. Anyway, tv will also take over the science for himself, just wait for the news to get the science for himself, and it will be more pleasantly surprised.

"I just got off the plane, the phone was just closed... Someone was calling me, I didn't say it anymore. Anyway, I went home in two days."

Old Lu Le, smiled and said: "You kid is very busy, who called you?"

Lu Zhou: "It is estimated to be a school. Let's hang it first."

Lu Zhou did not guess correctly. This call was really called from Jinda.

However, it doesn't matter if it is not connected, because when he connected the phone, he saw the president of Qin who was on the phone and the banner that several students opened at the entrance of the airport.

Congratulations to our undergraduate and master's degree graduates, Lu Zhou, a mathematics professor at the Princeton Institute of Advanced Studies, who conquered the world's difficult Goldbach conjecture and won the Kramford Mathematical Award. 】

This time the banner is a bit long, and it is difficult for Lu Zhou to want to install it without seeing it.

And not only the president of Jinda, the academician of the old school, and the dean of the court of Qin, here, Lu Zhou even saw the first-hand Liu Shuji of Jinling City, and some wearing suits greeted him with a smile, but he never met. people.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't know it. If you are a well-known domestic scholar, you may need to spend some time thinking about dealing with these leaders.

However, Lu Zhou’s current status is the Crawford Prize winner. He is a young scholar promoted by the propaganda machine. Even if he is away from the Fields Medal, the so-called distance is just the time for an 18-year international mathematician conference.

For such an internationally renowned scholar, many rules that are taken for granted by ordinary people are no longer practical for him.

Upon meeting, Xu Academician enthusiastically grasped Lu Zhou’s hand and shook it solemnly.

"Professor Lu Zhou, you have brought such a great glory to our country for our country, Jinling University. I represent all the teachers and students of Jinda and thank you!"

Lu Zhou smiled modestly and said: "The principal is very heavy, I am just doing what I should do as a scholar."

Academician Xu is a standard scientific researcher. Although he is not studying mathematics but information security, he is also a scholar. He knows that Lu Zhou does not like to waste time on red tape, so he has not **** at the airport for too long.

Simply warmly asked a few words, he introduced Lu Zhou and other leaders to Lu Zhou.

In addition to the city's leadership, there are two leaders from the province, which shows that the country attaches importance to him.

Not only that, the provincial leaders also revealed a message that this is not only the province, but the central government also attaches great importance to it.

As for how much attention is paid, the leader who came from the province only said that it was a good thing, but he did not smile.

At the airport, there was no delay for too long, and Lu Zhou quickly took the school to pick up his own car.

Xu Academician and Qin Dean, naturally, are on a car with Lu Zhou.

After some chills, Academician Xu stopped the words, and Qin’s dean cleared his throat and spoke with a bad tone.

"...This is the case. After research and discussion in our school and the hospital, I want to give you the title of honorary professor. I don't know if you are interested?"

Honorary professors are different from visiting professors and special professors. The former is only an honorary title, while the latter two are work contracts with fixed contracts and faculty positions.

With the reputation and historical heritage of Jinling University, the title of honorary professor will never insult the identity of Lu Zhou. However, the Department of Mathematics of Jinda University is a small transparent position in China, and it is definitely a little bit of light.

However, Lu Zhou did not care, and did not say that Jin Da helped himself a lot, and that his alma mater would be proud of his name, which is a matter of pride.

Lu Zhou said with a smile: "Of course, no problem, but the formalities will not be delayed for too long? I have to go back to Jiangling in two days."

If you spend too much time, he will be more willing to wait until you go to the United States.

He has been with Princeton for more than a month, and there is time.

Qin Dean haha ​​said with a smile: "It will not take long before the relevant procedures are ready. We can give you the certificate of honorary professor and the degree certificate after your report meeting!"

Hearing here, Lu Zhou smiled and nodded: "That will trouble you."
