The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

In late August 1989, inside the Yuanchang large wind tunnel laboratory, Wang Duoyu, wearing a safety helmet, was repeatedly checking the experimental results.

As early as last month, I learned that the United Airlines flight Qu Haiping was on had been involved in an accident.

Wang Duoyu has devoted most of his time to passenger aircraft research and development.

Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant was established as early as the end of 1983.

It has been almost six years now.

Pioneer Technology's domestically developed civil aircraft engine project was successfully developed last year.

However, since other parts of the aircraft have not yet been developed, we can only continue to wait.

There are very obvious differences between commercial airliners and fighter jets.

Fighter jets only need to consider speed, performance, and carrying capacity; they don't need to consider economy as much.

For commercial airliners, economic efficiency needs to be considered, and this aspect is even more important than other factors.

The reason is simple: if a passenger plane with excellent performance is developed, but its manufacturing cost is too high, its fuel consumption is too high, then airlines are unlikely to consider purchasing it.

However, the Pioneer Technology manufacturing plant is not just about proving that China can produce its own domestically made civil aircraft, but also about going global and competing with rivals such as Boeing and Airbus.

Therefore, the development of passenger aircraft needs to consider various aspects such as safety, economy, and stability.

Especially in today's world, the safety of civil aircraft is even more important.

In recent years, there have been many accidents both domestically and internationally caused by problems with the materials and technology of passenger aircraft themselves.

Therefore, safety performance is a major concern for airlines.

Take, for example, the United Airlines plane crash this time.

Even though the plane eventually made a safe emergency landing, it still killed hundreds of people.

This caused McDonnell Douglas to encounter an unprecedented public relations crisis.

"Yes, the experimental results are indeed correct."

Wang Duoyu was relieved after receiving the data.

Then he said:

"Over the next year, you will continue to conduct numerical simulations, wind tunnel simulations, and other experiments in these areas. In addition, the first prototype will conduct its test flight next March. All flight test data must be maintained accurately."

"We need to ensure we have enough flight data to verify the safety and other performance aspects of the passenger aircraft."

"We need to conduct test flights not only in plains areas, but also in harsher environments such as plateaus and deserts."

"Don't worry about spending money. Secretary Liu does advocate that we spend every penny wisely, but in scientific research, especially in civil aviation passenger aircraft, we should pay more attention to safety, and we must pay more attention to safety."

Once the aircraft completes its test flights, Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant can begin production and sell it to the public.

Although Wang Duoyu hopes to achieve the localization of civil aircraft production in a faster way, so that domestic airlines can directly purchase large aircraft manufactured by Pioneer Technology.

But you can't rush it, and you shouldn't be in a hurry.

Security is the most important thing; everything else is secondary.

Besides, once this aircraft is developed, Wang Duoyu and his wife and children may be able to ride in it.

He certainly doesn't want any unexpected events to happen to him in the future.

Therefore, during the development of this aircraft, it was essential to ensure that everything was perfect.

Wang Duoyu has been personally overseeing the research and development, spending more than half a month in the experiments.

This was indeed very rare before.

However, it's already late August, and Wang Duoyu won't keep an eye on it anymore.

His time is not wasted on these things. Harbin Institute of Technology has cultivated so many outstanding R&D personnel, and they are the main force.

At the Weizigou campus, in the villa on the island in the middle of the lake, Wang Duoyu had just arrived home when he saw Wang Yifei wiping away tears, walking towards him with a pitiful expression.

"Did you bully your sister?"

Wang Duoyu picked up the child, his face darkening, and he looked at Wang Jun'an and the other children with hostility.

Li Rongrong and the others quickly waved their hands, trying to distance themselves from the situation.

The children all know one thing very well: Wang Duoyu is a doting father to his daughter and spoils Wang Yifei rotten.

So how could anyone dare to bully her?

“Dad, we didn’t bully my sister. Maybe she wanted a schoolbag too, and wanted to go to school as well,” Wang Jun’an quickly explained.

Wang Duoyu's gaze softened when he saw the backpack on his second son's back.

So it seems that little Wang Yifei saw her second brother had a new schoolbag and wanted one too, as for wanting to go to school?

It's unlikely!
She's only two years old, and she doesn't have a short attention span. She only started asking for one because she saw her second brother had a new schoolbag. That's all.

"Sweetie, don't cry. Do you want a schoolbag too?"

Wang Duoyu coaxed.

Upon hearing this, the little one nodded with teary eyes, looking both pitiful and aggrieved, and said:

"Mom won't give it to me, boohoo."

Well, the culprit is her mother!

Hearing this, Wang Duoyu was both amused and exasperated, just as Liu Xiaoli came out of the living room.

She was already holding a new schoolbag in her hand; it was a pink schoolbag, and it was very cute.

"Here you go, you little crybaby. You cry when you can't have it. You won't even wait a moment."

As she spoke, Liu Xiaoli glared at Wang Duoyu again:
"It's all your fault, you've spoiled the kids."

Her tone was full of reproach, but that wasn't the case. Liu Xiaoli herself dotes on Wang Yifei quite a bit; otherwise, why would she personally sew a cute pink backpack for the little one?

This is clearly just something to fool the little guy.

It's more of a decorative bag than a schoolbag.

"Little sister, come quick, let me put your books and pens inside for you," Wang Jun'an said.

Wang Junkang, who was standing nearby, also came to help, but the next moment, he embarrassingly discovered that the book was too big to fit in.

Wang Yifei stared wide-eyed at her two older brothers, while the two brothers, Wang Jun'an and Wang Yifei, just stared at each other. At this moment, Lu Yuening suggested from the side: "Why don't we roll up the books?"
Well, rolling it up won't work either.

Suddenly, Wang Yifei burst into tears.

The house immediately became lively again.

The next day was Wang Yifei's second birthday, and again there was no grand celebration.

It was a small event, nothing more.

However, Zheng Baoyin and the others all returned, so although it wasn't a grand celebration, it was still quite lively.

After the birthday celebration, the little ones were very happy and went to bed early because they were so tired from playing.

The next day, in the study of the villa, Li Efra, Zheng Baoyin, Fuller Carson, Qu Haiping and others all sat together.

"Old Qu, congratulations on your safe return."

Upon hearing Wang Duoyu's words, Qu Haiping could only manage a wry smile.

"Professor, I've had a similar experience to yours."

"Haha, let's not talk about the past. We should look forward."

Wang Duoyu smiled and changed the subject.

Let bygones be bygones.

"But Lao Wei, you seem a bit out of sorts lately, what's wrong?"

Wei Ruolai, who was singled out, looked even more bitter than Qu Haiping.

"Professor, please excuse my rudeness. It's a family matter, so I won't bring it up."

"Well, speaking of which, I'm middle-aged now. Do you know what the greatest tragedy of middle age is?"

Hearing Wang Duoyu say that, everyone was somewhat speechless. Zheng Baoyin then spoke up:

“Uncle, although you are older than me in terms of seniority, you are the youngest and most successful among us. It seems unreasonable for you to talk about the greatest tragedy of middle age.”

"I should be the one saying it."

Wang Duoyu was born in 1956 and is only 33 years old this year. Although he is considered middle-aged, he can also be considered a young man.

Lee Evra echoed:
"Yes, I'm quite old among everyone here, but I don't seem to know what the greatest tragedy of middle age is."

However, Wei Ruolai did hear something, but he didn't dare to be sure.

Because Wei Ruolai is already forty-eight years old this year, just one step away from fifty.

So, based on what Wang Duoyu just said, he was probably referring to a man's sexual ability, right?
At this moment, Liang Shengzhi also spoke up:

"Professor, what you're saying is indeed incorrect. You haven't reached that age yet, and I don't believe you'll ever experience this so-called greatest tragedy of middle age."

Fuller Carson, Wang Jianchao, and Dylan Dario all looked at Wang Duoyu with curiosity and smiles on their lips.

Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"I'm talking about the greatest tragedy of middle age: I don't know who I am now. I'm talking about the future. Anyway, this is just casual conversation. What do you guys think is the tragedy of middle age?"

They chatted idly for a while, but Wang Duoyu just shook his head.

It wasn't until Wei Ruolai brought up a man's sexual abilities that things changed.

Wang Duoyu then nodded and said:

"Yes, Lao Wei is right, that's exactly it."

"However, it can be described with a line of poetry: Spring has gone, but the flowers remain; people come and go, but the woman is not alarmed!"

Everyone in the reception area fell silent.

Although Lee Efra and the others are working hard to learn Chinese and have memorized many ancient poems, their Mandarin is still quite fluent.

But I still can't understand what Wang Duoyu meant by that.

Zheng Baoyin, Wei Ruolai, and Wang Jianchao understood almost instantly, and they all exclaimed "Wow!"

"Uncle Jiu, what you said is so insightful!"

It seems that's actually true.

Many middle-aged people do experience this situation after reaching a certain age.

"Uncle, is there a second line to this couplet?"

"Yes, the mountains are colorful when viewed from afar, but the water is silent when heard up close!"

hiss!
Zheng Baoyin and the others understood instantly and found it incredibly ingenious.

Only O'Brien and his fellow foreigners couldn't figure out the meaning behind it. Chinese is a profound and complex language, and they need time to learn and digest it; otherwise, they will never understand the meaning of certain words.

After laughing, Wang Duoyu slowly stopped laughing and said:

"Alright, enough chit-chat. Let's get started. Who wants to go first?"

Today's work report is what we call a semi-annual report.

Of course, the most crucial reason is that they recently acquired Paramount.

Although the privatization process is still underway and the company has not yet been fully taken over, there are no obstacles to it.

For the rest of the time, Wang Duoyu listened attentively to their work report.

Wang Duoyu had already spent the night reviewing some of the reports they brought back yesterday.

Now I'm listening to their reports while flipping through the documents.

After Paramount's acquisition, MGM's previously prepared strategies will need to be adjusted.

However, Hollywood has six other big names, so there's no shortage of targets to target.

Paramount's upcoming filming plans and script development also need to be initiated simultaneously.

DC Comics could be acquired, but it probably won't be that easy.

Time Warner has also set its sights on DC Comics, and given that Warner already owns the super copyright to Batman, things are even more difficult.

In addition, Walt Disney is a very difficult company to deal with and a formidable rival.

Then there's 20th Century Fox, backed by an Australian media tycoon, making them a virtually flawless competitor.

After they finished reporting on their work at Paramount, Wang Duoyu pondered for a moment and said:

"Alright, from now on, you should continue to keep an eye on the major media giants in the United States, including Viacom and other media companies. Keep a close eye on them all, and if there is an opportunity to acquire one, we should take the initiative."

"Whether it's MGM or Paramount, without a media presence, achieving better revenue would be very difficult."

As for acquiring AMC Theatres, they could gain a first-mover advantage by leveraging the film screening schedule.

Haha, the US definitely doesn't allow malicious competition.

Besides, none of the giants like Time Warner, 20th Century Fox, and Walt Disney are weak.

Others also have their advantages, so how could they just stand by and let Paramount and MGM unleash their full firepower?
While box office performance is partly determined by talent, it's largely influenced by factors like marketing and promotion.

These days, even the best wine needs advertising.
“Uncle Jiu, can’t Facebook help with the promotion?” Wang Jianchao suddenly interjected.

Wang Duoyu heard this and shook his head:

"It's not that simple. If it were that simple, it would be much easier."

"Xiao Tong, tell me about the average daily traffic to Facebook now, and the number of internet users in the United States."

Tong Zhigang, who was called out, spoke up:

"Professor, everyone, Facebook currently has an average of over 3.8 million daily visits, while the number of internet users in the United States is approximately 30 million, less than 50 million."

However, after George W. Bush took office, he promoted the concept of internet technology on a large scale and built several communication lines running through the north, south, east, and west.

"In Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, hundreds of internet companies are being founded every day. Although most of them are garage startups, it's clear that the rise of the internet is unstoppable."

"In addition, companies such as Excellence Technology, Walsin Technology, Apple, IBM, Conmay International, and Tandy have also launched a large number of computer products."

"In recent years, companies such as Apple have also come to Harbin to invest and build factories, hoping to use our cheap labor force to reduce costs and increase efficiency."

The development of the internet is inseparable from one thing: the widespread use of computers!
The most crucial factor for computers to become more widespread is price reduction!

Five years ago, Apple launched the new Macintosh computer, priced at a staggering $2495, which left many feeling hopeless.

It was 1989, and high-end computers were top-notch in all aspects of configuration. There was nothing comparable on the market, so the price was still over two thousand dollars.

But in the low-end computer market, there's a wide range of options from $299 to $899.

All configurations are available, so customers can find the product that suits their needs.

With so many computer brands available, customers can be overwhelmed when choosing and are easily misled.

This is why companies like Conmay International are still able to exist.

In a few years, when product innovation can't keep up and computer prices become even more competitive, companies like Conmay International may disappear.

Walsin Technology's Alienware computer has already released its third version.

When each new version is released, the price of the previous first and second versions will be reduced further.

This has made consumers in the market even more frenzied.

Walsin Technology alone has sold over 100 million computers in the past few years.

With other companies like Excellence Technology, the number of computers in the United States alone is probably over 100 million.

Who can blame them when the United States is the most developed country in the world?

With so many computers, the internet naturally develops at a faster pace.

However, the United States has a population of just over 200 million, which is still tens of millions short of 300 million.

Therefore, it will be somewhat difficult for Facebook to grow.

Facebook hasn't grown enough, and its user base isn't large enough to compete with the media. It would be good enough if it didn't get crushed by the media.

Nowadays, most Americans still rely on newspapers and television to get their information, rather than the internet.

Therefore, acquiring a media giant is very important for both Paramount and MGM.

"Okay, Uncle, I understand. We'll keep an eye out for that kind of information and let you know when we have the chance."

Hearing Zheng Baoyin's words, Wang Duoyu nodded and said to Tong Zhigang:
"My next plan is probably not good for you, but you already have the advantage of being in the lead, so don't be upset."

Upon hearing this, the latter was startled, but his expression remained unchanged, and he quickly assured everyone that he would not be emotional.

In fact, Tong Zhigang had already roughly guessed what was going on after he learned about the increase in internet companies in Los Angeles.

On the other hand, last year Wang Duoyu also had someone establish an Exa cybersecurity company.

Subsequently, taking advantage of the Paramecium Network incident, they launched the Cyber ​​Security Guardian software.

Furthermore, they have partnered with computer manufacturers such as Excellence Technology to directly embed such software.

Therefore, Tong Zhigang had long been mentally prepared.

He just hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.

Wang Duoyu nodded with satisfaction and said:
"What I'm about to say is very important, and it's something we'll discuss behind closed doors."

Upon hearing this, everyone who was still taking notes put down their pens.

Because if you keep it behind closed doors, you can't tell anyone.

Only those in this room can know this, but it is not allowed to be spread outside.

Therefore, no notes can be left.

"In the next ten to twenty years, the internet will be the fastest-growing high-tech sector and a crucial engine for future economic growth in various countries. Therefore, internet-related companies will influence and change our lifestyles."

"Then the establishment of related internet companies by us, getting involved in this early on, is enough to allow our Want Want Group to expand." Hiss!
Zheng Baoyin and the others gasped in shock as the indoor temperature plummeted to freezing.

It wasn't that people didn't believe what Wang Duoyu said, but rather that they were shocked.

Although Facebook is doing very well, no one believes that the company can grow into a giant.

But that's what it is.

If Wang Duoyu is right, then Facebook could indeed become a giant in the industry.

"I don't think it's safe enough to just have Facebook as a company, and I don't want any of the future global internet giants to be controlled by the Want Want Group."

After a pause, Wang Duoyu continued:

"Facebook will inevitably go public in the future. What we need is not funds, but the large US market to attract global capital and support the entire internet market."

In the original timeline, before the millennium, Yahoo's market capitalization exceeded $100 billion.

It is undoubtedly an internet giant.

However, it then experienced the internet winter, and Yahoo gradually declined, eventually fading into obscurity.

Facebook, a rising star in the United States, quickly became a social media giant after the turn of the millennium, and then an internet technology giant.

Exa Cybersecurity will be upgraded and renamed Amazon.

Amazon was one of the internet giants in the original timeline, and Wang Duoyu believes that in this timeline, the company can also become such a giant.

Wang Lichuan, formerly the head of Exa Cybersecurity, will later become the head of Amazon.

However, whether he can hold onto this position remains to be seen.

Wang Duoyu would not allow someone who lacked ability to occupy a position without doing anything.

We've already covered more than half of the work-related topics.

Next came the matter of evacuating from Japan.

"Uncle, please rest assured, we have already contacted third parties, especially international capital, to take over our shops."

Zheng Baoyin immediately reported.

Japan's economy will remain at its peak for another six months or so, and will begin to decline next year.

Bubble economies are unsustainable; Tokyo alone, a cosmopolitan metropolis, is said to be able to buy the entire United States.

Just thinking about it makes you realize how terrifying it is.

So if you don't evacuate now, you won't be able to escape later.

Lee Evra, O'Brien, Fuller Carson, Dylan Dario, and others listened intently.

However, Wang Duoyu did not elaborate on his judgment or predictions regarding the future of the Japanese economy; he simply asked everyone to report on the progress of the evacuation, and that was all.

Wang Duoyu only needs to control the retreat situation, and that's enough.

Unrealized gains are not profits; profits that are actually received are real money.

The growth of the Japanese economy over the past few years is the profit that Wang Duoyu wants to reap.

Companies like Yuma Apparel and Pandora previously purchased shops with loans, though they concealed this through other means and under the names of other companies.

But their withdrawal now will not have a significant impact on Pandora and his allies.

Because the lease agreement was signed in accordance with the actual lease agreement, all the procedures were complete, and it was also reported to the relevant local authorities in Japan, the process was completely without any problems.

So what could possibly happen?

There's absolutely no problem!
"Hmm, not bad, we can proceed according to this plan."

After everyone had finished reporting, Wang Duoyu nodded and said:
"If any of you still have investments in Japan, sell them now while you can. Don't try to squeeze out the last penny; otherwise, you won't be able to escape later, and don't blame me."

Everyone quickly shook their heads to indicate that they wouldn't.

Everyone here owns their own small businesses; some are financial companies, and some are investment companies.

However, since these were all purely financial investments, Wang Duoyu did not allow them to put the cart before the horse, which led to unexpected events in the companies they were responsible for.

Just like Wang Lichuan and his ilk, even though they are already in charge with real power, if anything unexpected happens to the company, Wang Duoyu will not hesitate to remove anyone from their post.

"Uncle Jiu, shouldn't we turn our attention back to China?" Wang Jianchao suddenly asked.

He asked this question because he had met and chatted with Yang Deyong of Zhuoyue Technology before.

Several months ago, when Motorola and other capital giants tried to take action against companies like Zhuoyue Technology, which are affiliated with Harbin Institute of Technology, Zhuoyue Technology and others managed to escape unscathed.

However, they won't be as high-profile in overseas markets.

After being 'reprimanded' by Wang Duoyu, Yang Deyong and his team turned their attention to the domestic market.

The domestic market seems calm and uneventful these days; high-tech companies seem to have no market here at all.

In fact, if prices are brought down, domestic consumption power is still quite considerable.

"You don't need it!"

Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"I've already made arrangements for the domestic market; Want Want Group doesn't need to focus most of its attention on China."

His eighth brother-in-law's companies, such as the Brabus watch factory, have always been operating in the domestic market.

Maintaining the status quo is already quite good; there's no need to pull any other tricks.

Wang Duoyu had little interest in most businesses.

Anyway, domestic private enterprises have gradually developed, so let them develop as they please. Want Want Group only needs to focus on financial investment.

These private entrepreneurs are all people who rose from humble beginnings. They have no shortage of skills and vision, but what they lack is money and opportunities.

Wang Duoyu may lack time, but he has everything.

Therefore, making financial investments is sufficient.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, let's call it a day."

Upon hearing this, everyone applauded, thus concluding today's meeting.

Time flies, a few days have passed, and it's time for elementary school registration. Little Wang Jun'an is going to start school, and his sister Wang Yifei is crying her heart out.

It was her brother who was supposed to go to school, but she was the one crying her eyes out.

She never seemed to like her second brother much before, but now she's acting like this.

"Sweetie, don't cry. Let your second brother go to school. When you're as old as your second brother, you can go to school too, okay?"

The little girl cried very sadly, and even her mother couldn't comfort her. In the end, it was Wang Duoyu who comforted her, taking her to the study and diverting her attention with other toys and magic tricks.

This finally stopped her tears.

Wang Jun'an, who was originally going to school happily, is now a little worried.

However, once he got on the bus, he quickly forgot about his sister's crying and instead looked forward to meeting his classmates at school.

He was born in early January 1984, and is now over five years old, almost six.

Other children at that age are naturally not in school yet, but in kindergarten.

But Wang Duoyu didn't let him go back to school next fall; instead, he let him go straight to first grade this year.

Although Wang Jun'an is not as good as his older brother, he has already been able to study to the third grade level on his own.

So as long as you put in the effort, it's not impossible to complete the primary school curriculum through self-study.

"The children have all grown up; time flies so fast."

Around 9 a.m., Wang Duoyu carried the sleeping Wang Yifei into the bedroom and remarked to Liu Xiaoli.

"Yes, the eldest is almost nine years old, and even the youngest, Xixi, is already two years old."

Lu Yuexin, Wang Junkang, Li Shumin and the other children could not understand the feelings of Wang Duoyu and the others.

They are all too young.

Li Shumin was born at the end of 1985, Lu Yuexin was born in January 1986, and Wang Junkang was born in March 1986.

The three children are only three years old now, they are still very young.

However, since the two sisters, Li Rongrong and Lu Yuening, also went to school, the house suddenly became much quieter.

September arrived as scheduled, and Wang Duoyu's life gradually returned to normal.

Hodge guessed that there was still not much progress, but he felt that he had found some inspiration, and he had a feeling that this time the direction should be correct.

While Wang Duoyu was immersed in his own world, the outside world was in turmoil.

A French mathematics professor suddenly published a paper on the official website of Harbin Institute of Technology, claiming that he had disproved a proof paper by Wang Duoyu on the Artin conjecture.

This incident has shaken the mathematics community in Harbin.

Shing-Tung Yau, William Thurston, Wiles, Yorkz, Bocherz, and others downloaded the paper to view it.

Mathematics professors from Princeton University, Moscow State University, Oxford University, the University of Tokyo, the University of Hong Kong, and other institutions have all turned their attention to Harbin.

Although they downloaded the paper, they couldn't find any flaws in it in a short time.

If Wang Duoyu were to take action personally, then the clues should be revealed very quickly.

Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that Wang Duoyu had already put up a sign for seclusion and had no time to pay attention to the outside world.

Even if he has time, he uses it to hold the baby.

Wang Duoyu knew very well that he needed to rest and that he couldn't possibly spend all his time on scientific research.

Work should not be everything in life.

There's a saying that Wang Duoyu really likes: "There's always a gentle breeze in the world, filling my myriad dreams."

For him, a gentle breeze or two might be his inspiration, and most of his inspiration comes from life.

If the brain is stretched too tight, it will be like a taut rubber band, easily breaking down.

A balance between work and rest is the way to progress gradually.

"Hey, I thought it was really disproven, but it turns out it wasn't."

William Thurston immediately ended the verification process and breathed a sigh of relief.

why?
When Wang Duoyu's paper was published, he, as one of the reviewers, spent more than half a month deducing its meaning.

I wrote hundreds of sheets of calculation paper.

He couldn't find any flaws.

A mathematician from France actually claimed to have disproved this paper.

Isn't this a huge slap in the face to the entire mathematics community in Harbin?
As we all know, Wang Duoyu's papers were reviewed by William Thurston, Shing-Tung Yau, Robert Langlands, and John Milnor.

They have so many top mathematicians, including mathematics professors in their forties and fifties, as well as top mathematics researchers in their twenties and thirties. The number of Fields Medal winners alone exceeds two hands.

If the French mathematics professor's theory is indeed disproven, then William Thurston and his group are in serious trouble.

Its fairness will certainly be questioned by the global mathematics community.

Or perhaps their competence is being questioned.

Neither of them could William Thurston accept it.

Fortunately, William Thurston was relatively young and intelligent enough to realize that the other party was just a clown.

A false alarm!
However, even though he had already verified it, he did not mention it to Shing-Tung Yau and the others.

Several days later, after Yorkz and the others had all finished their review, they wrote down the results on paper and then made them public.

In this way, no one will be affected by others.

Because any conclusion should not be drawn first, and then reasons should be sought.

Of course, mathematics professors are rigorous individuals and would not be affected by this.

"Phew, I knew it! Everyone's judgment was right. The French mathematics professor's paper's inference is invalid!"

When Shing-Tung Yau, William Thurston, Charles Feifman, and others saw the results on their respective papers, they all laughed.

The results were similar for everyone, including Yorkz, Bocherz, Wiles, and others.

Of course, not everyone seriously deduced the result.

They then exchanged their reasoning processes and examined each other's detailed proofs.

Everyone uses slightly different methods, but they all arrive at the same goal.

Using different methods, the final results were surprisingly consistent.

This further proves that the French mathematics professor's conclusion is a complete fabrication and fallacy.

Even so, Yau and his team did not rush to publish the results. Instead, they contacted other institutions such as Princeton University, the University of Tokyo, and Oxford University to inquire about their verification results.

They could even be allowed to announce the results.

The mathematics community is a place that values ​​truth. It is a very rigorous circle that requires bold assumptions and careful verification.

The paper was published by a French mathematics professor, regardless of whether its conclusions are true or false.

Since it involves Wang Duoyu, this reflects the prevailing trend in the mathematics community and has attracted a lot of attention.

Even those outside the mathematics community are paying close attention.

Therefore, we must be extremely cautious.

More than a week later, Princeton University finally released the results: the French mathematics professor's paper was incorrect.

Professor Wang Duoyu's paper on proving the Artin conjecture is rigorous and meticulous, and contains no loopholes.

The news didn't attract much attention once it was announced.

why?
The message everyone wanted to hear was that Wang Duoyu's research paper was wrong and had been disproven by other professors.

Since that wasn't the case, naturally no one was very interested.

Everyone loves to read gossip.

Instead of focusing on how amazing Wang Duoyu is.

Throughout the 1980s, Wang Duoyu practically reigned supreme.

In terms of mathematical research achievements in the global mathematics community, Wang Duoyu stands out by a significant margin.

He also won two Fields Medals.

Over the years, there have been countless news stories about Wang Duoyu.

Everyone's tired of seeing that.

Moreover, Wang Duoyu is like a saint; apart from the gossip that he has been divorced twice, he has no other blemishes.

So how can people criticize and smear him?

You can't just start with a picture and make up all the content, can you?
The problem is that Wang Duoyu spends most of his time in school or laboratory, occasionally going out to fish in the Songhua River or other places, or going back to his hometown.

But he is rarely seen out alone, shopping with some woman or anything like that.

So where does this gossip come from?

Don't even think about such tabloid news.

That's why few people are willing to pay attention to the results released by Princeton University.

Even the mathematics community quickly lost its enthusiasm for the matter after learning about it.

It can almost be said that the world has suffered from the abundance of fish and the king's sustenance for too long.

However, Wang Duoyu remained in the position of "Emperor of Mathematics" and no one could do anything about it.

And given that he is only thirty-three years old this year, he can stay in this position for many more years.

While the outside world was in turmoil, Wang Duoyu was completely unaware.

Many things happen overseas in September, but Wang Duoyu didn't pay much attention to them.

On the contrary, Qian Xuesen was paying attention to the relevant news that the United States had released a few days ago in Beijing.

Voyager 2 spacecraft passed by Neptune and one of its comets, Neptune Triton.

This news is not worth paying attention to for most ordinary people.

But for Qian Xuesen, it was of great significance to pay attention to.

He wanted to talk to Wang Duoyu about this, but he couldn't get through on the phone. After asking around, he found out that Wang Duoyu was in seclusion again.

"I really envy him. He can go into seclusion whenever he wants. That's a great attitude towards scientific research!"

When Qian Xuesen, who was already 78 years old, learned about Wang Duoyu's seclusion from his student Kong Xiangyan, he couldn't help but smile and sigh.

"Yes, I also admire Professor Wang. He is indeed a very capable person."

Kong Xiangyan smiled and echoed.
