"Do you remember? In the meeting just now, he said he has faith in your direction. When Director Dai asked him why, he replied with two words, ’intuition’."
"He said it was intuition, we believe him, and then we design the experiment as usual and wait for the results."
Zhang Wei explained in detail, her tone full of absolute trust in Zhao Yi.
To Li Ming, it even bordered on ’adoration’. He thought Zhang Wei seemed a bit like a ’fanatic believer’, but her performance was more like stating facts, leaving him somewhat confused for a moment.
In the end, he could only mumble blankly, "Is that so? Is it really...?"
...
Outside the research institute, no one knew about the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule or the concurrent development of drugs. The only focus of attention in the university was the upcoming academic report on ’Supersymmetry Problem’.
Zhao Yi’s ’advertisement’ in the news was just one channels of promotion, to compensate for the limited influence of the paper publishing platform.
The primary aim of the report was to inform top mathematicians and physicists. The School of Sciences sent special invitations to all major academic organizations around the world and instituted a free application process.
Of all the invitations, half were set for institutions and universities, and the rest were reserved for individuals applying freely or special invited personnel.
This invitation was grand.
If it were just ordinary research results, one might hesitate to invite the world’s top academic institutions. Zhao Yi’s academic report was different. Influential institutions and universities in theoretical physics, including organizations like the Newton Research Institute, International Theoretical Physics Center, European Nuclear Organization, the Institute for Advanced Study of Princeton, National Academy of Sciences and so on, were all invited. Some famous international universities were also invited, although the seats allocated in the name of universities were not many, as some top mathematicians and physicists applied freely or simply registered their names.
The treatment of top mathematicians and physicists was certainly different, as they had growing qualifications and personal influence, they naturally not be restricted by seat limitation.
Like some scholars who may simply be masters or Ph.D. students, without significant achievements, they would certainly undergo thorough scrutiny.
Because, the report was difficult.
Zhao Yi’s demonstration on ’Supersymmetry Problem’ was extremely difficult. Inadequate level, inadequate knowledge, they simply could not understand it all, occupying a seat is meaningless.
Yanhua University planned to hold the lecture in the largest conference room of the graduate building, but it can only accommodate three to four hundred people. After the academic circle released the lecture time, there were more than two thousand independent applications.
The school spent a lot of energy just screening the participants.
Mainly to ensure that there are no problems.
It’s fine with some ordinary applicants. Due to the limited number of participants, it’s just a rejection. However, if a Physics Nobel laureate or a Fields Medalist wants to participate through the official free application channel and gets directly excluded, it would not sound good.
"Mr. XXX, a Nobel laureate in Physics, applied to attend Zhao Yi’s lecture at Yanhua University and was rejected..."
"Mr. XX, a Fields Medalist, applied to attend the lecture and was unceremoniously denied..."
In short, a lot of effort was spent in screening independent participants.
As the lecture approached, the atmosphere in the school was indeed different. The ordinary students felt that there were more foreigners in the school, some areas were set up as restricted areas, and there were often fully-armed police officers on the road. The high-security situation made people feel a bit anxious.
There were also more media reporters. freeweɓnøvel.com
When walking on the school’s path, they often saw unfamiliar scholars being interviewed by journalists, some were domestic scholars, and others were foreign scholars.
Interestingly, some lucky students also received interviews from journalists, who usually conducting surveys, asking some small questions, "Do you know Zhao Yi?"
"Can you evaluate Zhao Yi? Your feelings are enough."
"Do you know what significant achievements Zhao Yi has made in the field of mathematics and physics? Please speak in detail."
"Do you know the ’Supersymmetry’ problem?"
"..."
Most of the survey questions were related to Zhao Yi and his accomplishments. freewebnovel.cσ๓
Some of the media not only interviewed the students of Yanhua University, but also surveyed the scholars who came, asking questions about Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi seemed to have become a ’superstar’.
...
Soon.
The day of the academic lecture came.
On that day, the area with direct access to the graduate building in the university was blocked. Only the guests holding invitations, the school’s staff, and authorized reporters were allowed in.
Many people simply stood in the outer area, looking from a distance like a celebrity fan meeting. However, the people who came did not appear as fanatical as fans.
In the large conference room, many people came early, some even an hour early. Some, in order to interact academically or to meet the bigwigs, simply waited inside early.
At eight o’clock.
The journalists had set up their cameras and began shooting interviews.
By this time, most people had arrived.
The front row was full of top mathematicians and physicists, with five Nobel laureates and three Fields Medalists. Some journalists also began to introduce the situation.
