"Yes, it seems that you are still sober, so now you understand why I asked you to try your best to promote cooperation with Joe? But look what you did?

You wasted a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I told you to take advantage of the fact that you and Qiao are both Chinese and build a good relationship with him. I don't understand where your inexplicable sense of superiority comes from.

Is it because he is young that makes you feel embarrassed? If that is the reason, then you are too stupid! Really, I have always thought that you are a smart person who knows what is important and what is light!"

Lucas Eisen's sermon left Frank speechless.

He wanted to say something to Lucas Eisen, "Because I am Qiao Yu's father! And he doesn't even know about it yet!" But he still didn't say it out loud.

Frank was not worried about those romantic affairs in his youth being known by Lucas. In fact, with his current status, it was not a big problem for such things to be exposed.

The main reason was that the way it was handled at the time was inappropriate, and it felt a bit like abandoning his wife and children. Lucas is the kind of person who prides himself on being very family-oriented.

The most important thing is that from the perspective of Chinese culture, his behavior at that time was not right. If he recognized Qiao Yu rashly, he was afraid of turning against Qiao Yu.

In fact, ever since Qiao Yu announced on arXiv that he had proved the Riemann Hypothesis, he has been suffering every day recently.

And the mentality is extremely complex.

On the one hand, he hopes that Qiao Yu is right. No matter what, he has confirmed that Qiao Yu is his biological son.

On the other hand, he didn't want Qiao Yu to be so powerful. Frank was really afraid that Qiao Yu might take revenge on him if he knew what happened back then.

After all, Qiao Yu has been living with his mother all these years. Frank doesn't know what Qiao Xi said about him to Qiao Yu, but presumably Qiao Xi doesn't say anything good about him.

Being blocked by a mathematical genius who solved the Riemann Hypothesis at the age of seventeen, Frank felt that he would probably have a bleak future in mathematics. After all, he really knew how powerful academics could be in this era.

Qiao Yu happens to have all the elements needed to become a generational scholar. Damn it, is this going to keep people alive?

At this time, I have to face Lucas’ merciless questioning...

Frank regrets it! Very regrets it!

If he had not chosen to go abroad, even if he had returned to China to find Qiao Xi after graduating from MIT, he would have admitted his mistake and assumed the responsibility of raising Qiao Yu, and raised Qiao Yu by himself...

Just thinking about how bright the future would have been if he had chosen this way, Frank wanted to slap himself twice!

God originally gave him a shortcut to the sky, but in the end he chose the road behind the shortcut.

It's a pity that there are no what-ifs in life, so now he is speechless when faced with Lucas' question.

Of course, even if he had something to say, he wouldn't say it. Frank knew the character of Lucas Eisen, he was a willful old man.

If he opened his mouth to defend, it would only make the old man angrier and make a lot of uglier words. But he had no choice now and had to rely on Lucas to pave the way for him. So he could only endure this scolding.

"I'm sorry, Lucas, I'm disappointed. But as you know, there are too many people who want to cooperate with Qiao Yu. It's not that I didn't try, but he rejected me."

"Hmph...you can do it on your own! If you don't even know how to use your own advantages, how can you expect me to help you?"

After saying that, Lucas Eisen hung up the phone angrily.

On the other side, Frank listened to the busy tone on the phone, his face uncertain.

There are many things to consider, such as how should he face Qiao Yu at the upcoming World Congress of Mathematicians?

Especially when he heard that Qiao Xi was now accepted by Yuan Zhengxin, and he didn't know if Qiao Xi would go to the World Congress of Mathematicians. If he went there, if he met him and recognized him...

But it was impossible not to attend this meeting. After all, although he was not qualified to give a full report in this meeting, it was determined that he would give a thirty-minute report in a branch room, and he could not give up this opportunity.

After all, even if he doesn't win the Fields Medal, he still has the Abel Prize and the Wolf Prize to look forward to in the future, so he can't help but go to such a top conference every four years to show his face, right?

Sad!

…

Huaxia, Lu Yanxiang of the Institute of Mathematics and Systems Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is also worried.

Of course, he was not as worried as Frank. But he still felt distressed after seeing Princeton’s announcement...

It’s really recognized!

It can only be said that Zhang Yuanling is in good company. But Lu Yanxiang really wanted to find someone to talk to him. Qiao Yu directly applied for a project to solve such a big problem as the Riemann Hypothesis. Is there any problem with him rejecting it?!

What the hell is wrong with this?!

Before the Riemann Hypothesis was solved, who could believe that a teenager could really solve this problem and leave a super luxurious review team speechless?

The most annoying thing was that when he called Zhang Yuanling to complain, the guy actually said: "Hey... Academician Lu, our situations are completely different. We can't be confused.

After all, Qiao Yu withdrew his project by himself at that time. I just asked a few questions and didn’t mean to deny it. But your situation is different. You directly rejected his project!"
