Training the Heavens

Chapter 181 People are coming

Yang Su walked into the courtyard with a smile, but he was greeted with a series of swear words. The two naughty kids Zhendong and Zhenbei were still cursing there, showing off their good qualities.

"What's going on?" Yang Su's face suddenly fell.

"Mayor Yang, several kids were fighting, and we just pulled them apart." The principal explained quickly. While speaking, he glanced at the secretary who had just come in, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the secretary nod.

"Fight? Tuanan wasn't beaten, was he?" This is what Yang Su is most concerned about now. He also brought reporters with him. If Tuanan was beaten and there were marks left, it would be troublesome to take pictures.

"No, no, Tuanan came back with us. The fight was between other children." The principal invited Yang Su to sit down in the room and told him everything that had happened.

Yang Su frowned. "This is really outrageous. Tunan's mother has divorced him. How can his family still have the nerve to send their child here? This family is really..."

"Who said it wasn't? It seems their family is still resentful about the divorce. Maybe they want to take the child back because Tuanan is becoming more and more successful?" The principal observed the Zhuang family's expressions and gave them a stern look.

"That won't do. Since they've already obtained the divorce certificate, they are two families. How can they disturb other people's normal lives?" Yang Su frowned even more tightly.

It only took a moment to realize that if the Zhuang family continued to harass Huang Tunan, how could he still focus on his research? In that case, it was unclear when the next breakthrough would come. He might not even have achieved one by the end of his term.

"This behavior that clearly violates the Marriage Law must be stopped. Which unit do the parents of these two children work for?" Yang Su said in a high-sounding manner. Huang Tunan's next breakthrough must be as soon as possible, and such a good thing must not be left to others.

The principal winked, and the secretary quickly reported what they had just learned. "The father of these two children works in a machinery factory, and their mother works in a neighborhood enterprise. I heard that when Tuanan's mother sent the children here just now, she had an argument with her and didn't want the two children to stay. But their mother didn't listen at all and left the children behind without a care!"

"Some people say this might have been their grandparents' idea. They might have set their sights on Tunan's house. When they were getting divorced, the two of them came over and made a scene. Many neighbors saw it."

"What about Tuanan's father? Didn't he stop him?" Yang Su was really enlightened today. There were actually parents like this.

"Well, according to them, Tuanan's father has always been a bit foolishly filial and never dared to disobey his parents. Tuanan's mother suffered a lot of grievances when she was with him, and the same goes for the two children. It is said that once Tuanan's grandmother celebrated her birthday." The secretary picked out a few typical cases that he had heard of and told them again.

"Such an environment is truly detrimental to a child's growth. Comrade Huang Ling, you made the right decision to divorce Zhuang Chaoying." Yang Su, feeling sympathetic towards Huang Ling and the other two, encouraged them. "Don't worry. We have the Marriage Law, which protects the rights and interests of women and children after divorce. As the deputy mayor in charge of education and scientific research, I also have an obligation to create a good learning and research environment for Tunan."

"Leave this matter to me!" Yang Su immediately instructed his secretary, "Call the leaders of the machinery factory and the street office and have them bring the parents of these two children here immediately."

"Yes." The secretary hurried off. There were no cell phones around these days, so if he wanted to make a call, he had to go to the public phone at the entrance of the alley. "Thank you, boss. Your words put my mind at ease," Huang Ling said gratefully.

Huang Tunan glanced at Zhendong and Zhenbei, and said, "You two will suffer the consequences soon."

After comforting Huang Ling, Yang Su waved his hand and called Huang Tunan to his side. "Tunan, I heard that you solved a world-class mathematical problem. Can you tell me how you did it?"

"It can't be considered a crack. I can only say that I have made a small contribution to the problem of Mersenne primes," Huang Tunan said modestly.

"Haha, this is not a small contribution. I heard that even the great mathematicians in Europe and the United States have not found the unique number you just discovered." Yang Su laughed heartily.

The accompanying reporters quickly pressed the shutter button to record this scene. If nothing unexpected happens, this photo will definitely appear in tomorrow's Suzhou Daily.

"When I first enrolled, the school arranged for two older roommates to look after me. They showed me the Goldbach Conjecture and encouraged me to make contributions in the field of mathematical research."

"I read the sentence in a book, 'Mathematics is the queen of natural sciences, and number theory is the crown of mathematics,' and I became interested in number theory. Teacher He also encouraged me to learn about this subject. He and many other teachers used their spare time to teach me related knowledge, which gave me a basic understanding of number theory."

"It was during this process that I learned about the Mersenne prime, a number theory problem as famous as the Goldbach conjecture. Director Ping told me that by the beginning of this century, the latest Mersenne prime had reached 39 digits in length, and it was difficult to find new Mersenne primes by manual calculation alone!"

"In the 1950s, American mathematicians were the first to use computers to find Mersenne primes. If I want to find new Mersenne primes, I have to learn computers well. Computers can play a huge role in many areas of mathematical research."

"I listened to Director Ping's advice and applied to the university to study computer technology. The principal was very supportive and approved me to take classes with computer science students. The teachers and classmates took good care of me and helped me master the basic knowledge so that I could use computers for research."

Huang Tunan thanked a lot of people in these words, and did not leave out any of them as long as they had helped him. The principal, Ping Zetao, He Chengxuan and others were very pleased to hear this. This child is really sensible.

"Your school is very dedicated to cultivating talents. No wonder Tunan can achieve results before the junior class of USTC." Yang Su praised. He did not doubt Huang Tunan's words at all. He was still a child. How could he say such words if he had not experienced it himself?
Huang Tunan continued to talk about his research. He tried his best to use relatively popular language to explain various professional issues, and even Yang Su and the daily reporter could barely understand him.

Just as Yang Su was feeling delighted, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door. The secretary went out to check and came back to report, "Leader, the parents of these two children and the leaders of their unit are here."
