From top stream to scholar

It was not too late when we arrived in Stockholm.It's just that in Sweden in early September, the weather is a bit cold.Fortunately, Yu Wanzhou had prepared thicker clothes.Wearing it on his body made him feel a lot warmer. Not long after he landed in Stockholm, he saw a message from Jiang Yi, followed by messages from his brother and brother-in-law.

They were all asking if he had reached Stockholm safely.

After replying to their message, I heard that someone will pick me up at the airport, but I don't know who it will be.Unexpectedly, someone actually held a sign in Chinese, with the words Yu Wanzhou written on it high up.

He froze for a moment, the other party was someone he didn't know.He wears glasses, looks shy, and is taller than him.There is still some childishness on his face, as if he has just graduated from university or has not yet graduated.Yu Wanzhou stepped forward and said, "Excuse me, are you here to pick up Yu Wanzhou?"

He was a little excited when he heard Chinese suddenly.After all, almost everyone here speaks Swedish, and there are really few people who can speak Chinese, walking all over the street.It would be nice to catch a few Chinese-speaking people.He didn't speak very smoothly, just like this, he was really frightened when he suddenly heard fluent Chinese.My whole body trembled.

Yu Wanzhou was also frightened, is he that scary?Didn't you just say a word?His tone...isn't that intense and tough, can this scare people?

Yu Wanzhou also looked at the other party with a confused face, "Are you okay?"

"No, no, no." The man hurriedly stopped and said, "I'm here to pick up Mr. Yu Wanzhou, are you?"

Yu Wanzhou smiled and said, "Hi, let's meet. My name is Yu Wanzhou."

"Huh?" The man was stunned for a while, as if he hadn't recovered.After looking at Yu Wanzhou for a long time, he said slowly, "You are Yu Wanzhou? Mr. Yu Wanzhou who came to receive the Craford Mathematics Award?" He looked at Yu Wanzhou dumbfounded, eyes full of disbelief.

"Yes, I am Yu Wanzhou who came to receive the Crawford Prize in Mathematics." Yu Wanzhou nodded and said, "If you don't believe me, I can show you my passport."

The man said cautiously, "Yes, is it possible?"

"Of course." Yu Wanzhou said casually after seeing that she was a fresh graduate from university, "Where do you work?"

"Embassy." He was a little embarrassed, and Yu Wanzhou handed over his passport.

After looking at it several times, he stared at Yu Wanzhou for a while, handed Yu Wanzhou's passport with both hands and said, "You, you are really young."

"I didn't expect that?" Yu Wanzhou said with a smile, "What do you think the people who come to receive the Crawford Prize in Mathematics will be? Old people or middle-aged people?"

"A middle-aged man?" He said in an embarrassed tone, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, I didn't do my homework well."

"It doesn't matter." Yu Wanzhou said jokingly, "Everyone has their own blind spots in knowledge, and no one is an exception. It's okay to feel unexpected in areas that you don't know."

"However, I was still a little surprised." Yu Wanzhou said with a smile, "I was told that someone would come to pick up the plane, but I thought someone from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences would come. I was still thinking about how to communicate, after all, the Swedish."

"In fact, English can also be communicated. Generally, academicians of the Royal Academy of Sciences are good at English. Many papers on science are compiled in English."

"That's true." Yu Wanzhou nodded slightly, which was right.Most of the documents and materials are English papers, "But why did the embassy come to pick me up?"

"That's right, you are known as the Prince of Mathematics in Huaguo, and it is also your first time to come to Sweden. Our embassy is very interested in you. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences contacted us before and asked if we could send A person will come to pick you up. Mr. Ambassador agreed, and you are well-known in Swedish scientific circles."

"It is said that you are the prince of mathematics in Huaguo, that you are from Gauss in Huaguo, and that you are already at the top level in mathematics. There are all kinds of remarks. Everyone admires you very much." It seems to be a star chasing scene Yes, after the embarrassment, the bespectacled embassy staff looked at Yu Wanzhou with bright eyes.On the contrary, it made Yu Wanzhou a little bit dumbfounded, "I'm not that good, it's just everyone's support."

"You are the winner of the Crawford Mathematics Master. I heard that almost all the winners of this award are winners of the Fields Medal." The young man blinked and said, "Some people say that you have already won the Fields Medal. Really?"

When I was talking about this, I added a sentence, "I'm sorry, I was in foreign relations before, and I didn't do much research in mathematics, so I didn't hear any news about you. I didn't know the news until I knew you were here. .□□It’s also not very convenient, there is no information about you that can be accessed.”

"I also just came to work in the embassy not long ago..."

"Don't worry." Yu Wanzhou patted him on the shoulder, "There's nothing to be angry about. If you ask me about those well-known figures in your foreign relations, I don't know how many. There is nothing to apologize for. .”

"Hey." He breathed a sigh of relief, "By the way, my name is Song Lian."

"Song Lian, that's a nice name." Yu Wanzhou said with a smile, "So are we going to the embassy now?"

"Yes, let's go to the embassy now." Lian Song said again in a panic, "Mr. Yu, do you have anything else to do?"

"No." Yu Wanzhou shook her head and said, "I originally said it was my first time in Europe, but after thinking about it, I went to Madrid in 09."

"Ah?" Song Lian looked at Yu Wanzhou suspiciously, "I heard that you were a doctoral student at Princeton University and just graduated this year. Why did you go to Madrid before?"

"Participate in the IMO competition." Yu Wanzhou spread her hands and said, "I forgot, I also participated in the IMO competition."

"Oh, you also participated in the IMO contest..." Song Lian thought, isn't it?This Mr. Yu participated in the IMO competition in 09. At that time, he was already in college.Didn't you say that this person has graduated with a Ph.D.?Why did you still participate in the mathematics competition for high school students in 09?

Song Lian's head was full of question marks, but he didn't have the nerve to ask, because he was afraid that Yu Wanzhou would dislike him because there were too many questions.

Seeming to see Song Lian's doubts, Yu Wanzhou said to Song Lian, "I went to high school in 08 and participated in the Yucheng high school mathematics competition. Oh, I am from Yucheng."

"Afterwards, I got the qualification to participate in the National High School Mathematics Competition, and IMO competition. In the second half of 09, I studied at Yucheng University. After graduating in 10 years, I went to Princeton University for a master's and doctoral degree. I just graduated with a Ph.D. this year. "

"???" Song Lian was in a state of sluggishness. Is this something that humans can do?This is too powerful, this is simply in the immortal class.He had heard countless legends of great gods at school, but none of them was as bizarre and nonsensical as Yu Wanzhou's experience.

This is simply the strongest genius on the surface!

"Mr. Yu..." Song Lian said in a trembling voice, "Your experience is really... severe, amazing."

Song Lian felt that he was speechless and didn't know what adjectives to use to describe Yu Wanzhou's nonsense experience.

When they came outside the airport, a pure black car was waiting for them quietly outside the airport.Song Lian pointed to the car and said, "Mr. Yu, this is the car of our embassy."

Song Lian stepped forward to open the car and helped Yu Wanzhou put the suitcase in the trunk.

After Yu Wanzhou got into the car, the driver nodded to Yu Wanzhou lightly and said, "Mr. Yu."

"Hello."

"Hello."

Song Lian got into the car and introduced to Yu Wanzhou, "Mr. Yu, this is a military attache from our embassy named Liang Feng."

"Hello, Mr. Liang." Yu Wanzhou smiled.

Liang Feng seemed a little serious, started the car and drove to the embassy.Along the way, Song Lian and Yu Wanzhou chatted about some problems.

Song Lian was very curious about topics such as how Yu Wanzhou studied before.

"I didn't study it specially. You may not believe it, but I really did it. I feel like I am a small town and a problem maker, but every time I say that, you don't believe it." Yu Wanzhou He said dumbfoundingly, "I really don't have any other secrets. I just do the questions every day, either on the way or on the way. Then... I can solve the math problems naturally."

"Hiss...that's amazing." Song Lian took a breath, "I'm so envious of Mr. Yu's talent. If you don't have talent, you're just like me." I thought about becoming a mathematician, but my math grades were so bad that I couldn’t do it no matter how hard I tried. In the end, I just gave up.”

Yu Wanzhou smiled slightly and stopped talking.

Arriving at the embassy, ​​Yu Wanzhou got off the car and took out her luggage from the trunk.

Song Lian introduced and said, "That's right, Mr. Yu, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has arranged a hotel for you. We can also provide you with accommodation here. You can choose whether to stay in a hotel or in an embassy."

"This, staying in the embassy, ​​will it bring any inconvenience to your work?"

Yu Wanzhou was worried that he would cause trouble to others by living in the embassy. He is not a person who likes to cause trouble to others. If he can avoid it, he should try to avoid it.

"It's not troublesome." Song Lian said with a smile, "We have staff dormitories here. The conditions are not bad, and the occupancy is not full. Even if you live in Sweden for a year or two, I welcome you very much."

"Not so good." Yu Wanzhou still felt that it was not so good. This place is indeed closer to the Stockholm City Hall, but Yu Wanzhou always felt that living here would definitely cause a lot of trouble for others.Although it is said to live in the staff dormitory, this is an embassy after all, which involves certain confidentiality.Better not to live here.

"Or, I'd better go to the hotel."

While talking, a handsome middle-aged man came out and said to Yu Wanzhou, "Mr. Yu."

"On behalf of all the staff of the Chinese Embassy in Sweden, I welcome you."
