Chapter 357: Chapter 130: The Agenda that the Big Shot Thinks Needs to be Temporarily Changed_5

After speaking, Tian Yanzhen paused, then dominantly stated: "As for offending people, that’s inevitable. There are many instances of research topics clashing in academia. Whoever solves the problem first and publishes the paper gets the credit.

We can’t just say their results are theirs simply because they started their research first. It’s all based on capability. Your results speak for themselves, and with me and your grandmaster around, rest assured, nobody can steal your work."

Qiao Yu nodded repeatedly and said, "Alright, but can I submit it a bit later? Maybe in the afternoon? You know, I just told Professor Dennis that I hadn’t figured out the complete proof yet. Suddenly coming up with the complete proof feels quite embarrassing."

"What’s there to be embarrassed about? Why can you say he knows it directly... Ah, never mind. Alright, the afternoon it is..." In the end, Tian Yanzhen yielded to Qiao Yu’s request.

We might not care what Sam and Frank think, but Pan Jingyuan has provided Qiao Yu with a lot of help on this matter, and since Dennis is Pan Jingyuan’s mentor, this part indeed requires some attention.

However, Tian Yanzhen’s view of Qiao Yu changed again.

At just sixteen years of age, he considered all aspects, with a meticulously thoughtful mind.

"Well then, in the afternoon, I’ll also send an email to Professor Pan and Professor Dennis, saying that inspiration struck and I worked out the complete process. Then I’ll say that after flying in, I couldn’t sleep and kept thinking about math problems, and I was too exhausted so I just went to sleep.

Professor Pan is still in the country, and Professor Dennis definitely won’t be up at that time. By the time they see the email, I’ll already be asleep. Then we can directly wait for Professor Schulz to come tomorrow and discuss together. What do you think? Anyway, there’s nothing going on today, and you won’t let me go out by myself."

Qiao Yu completed the entire process with great enthusiasm.

Tian Yanzhen shook his head and said, "You don’t really need to be so cautious."

Qiao Yu denied, "It’s not about being cautious, I just want to keep Professor Dennis and Professor Pan happy. After all, they are really nice people. It’s supposed to be a good thing, and their paper only needs minor adjustments to be published alongside mine.

But if, due to other reasons, this good thing gets overshadowed, it wouldn’t be good. After all, Professor Sam and Professor Frank are definitely unhappy, and they’ve been collaborating with Professor Dennis for so long. This way of handling things ensures those two collaborators won’t blame Professor Dennis and Professor Pan.

As for me, I don’t mind. I’m young, with you and grandmaster watching over me, and I’m not acquainted with those two professors, so I’m not afraid of offending people. If they show up, I simply won’t go! "

Yes, good boy, he truly thinks of everything, completely thorough in all aspects. What’s key is his sense of responsibility, willingly sharing the emotional burden for Professor Pan who helped him...

"Alright then, do what you want with your results, just put all these thoughts into... Never mind, go back to your room and tidy up your things." Tian Yanzhen waved his hand as he spoke.

Initially, he instinctively wanted to tell Qiao Yu to put all his thoughts into mathematics, but upon reflection, he realized it wasn’t necessary.

Considering the current situation, no matter how strict a mentor is, they can’t deny Qiao Yu’s achievements in mathematics.

This lad is about to enter a period of harvest.

Once this report is completed, if it is recognized, it would mean Qiao Yu has three first-author top journal papers on hand.

At sixteen, with three first-author mathematics top journal papers, and with the project at Huaqing, if the results come out, at least there’s a fourth-author paper. This has left Tian Yanzhen unable to bear any criticism.

Looking at the history of mathematics, only geniuses like Gauss and Ramanujan can compare.

Genius touches on many aspects, and these individuals have achieved what they did through self-learning. Qiao Yu is the same. As his mentor, beyond assigning a stack of required readings, there hasn’t been much oversight.

Qiao Yu seems well-adapted to this model of self-study.

Ah... One can only say that talent is enviable.

Truly, Tian Yanzhen no longer has any interest in taking on more students.

Watching Qiao Yu, who had a sheepish grin on his face, dragging his suitcase, about to leave, Tian Yanzhen suddenly remembered that this boy will be attending the IMO in July...

After this report session, he might even qualify to sit with the judges at IMO, chatting and laughing with them, yet his age still qualifies him to participate in events meant for high school students. Just the thought makes Tian Yanzhen feel it’s quite absurd.

On the other side, after putting away his luggage, Qiao Yu initially planned to give Qiao Xi a call to discuss his plans, but he decided against it.

He plans to tell Qiao Xi face-to-face after he completes this task.

After all, there isn’t much material to share right now.

After the presentations, regardless of whether the respected Professor Frank attends the conference, he is likely to hear about this event. At that time, no matter the considerations, Dennis or Professor Pan will definitely get in touch with Professor Frank.

Then he can indirectly learn from Professor Pan about Professor Frank’s reaction.

Of course, it would be best if Professor Frank personally attends this conference, so he can witness the reaction firsthand and then describe the scene to Qiao Xi.
