Guo Miao spent a few days sorting out the thesis and quickly sent it to the editorial department of the International Mathematics Journal.
Three days later, in Country F, the assistant placed an iced Americano on Carl’s table. Carl was the current editor-in-chief of the International Mathematics Journal.
Country F was the headquarters of the International Mathematical Research Organization. The editorial departments of the three legendary academic journals were all in Country F.
Carl was a professor at Country F’s National University. A few years ago, he had taught a high school student in Fog City to solve Riemann’s hypothesis.
It was also because of this that he became the editor-in-chief of an international mathematics journal.
“Good morning, Professor. I’ve already sorted out the manuscripts that need to be processed today. Your iced Americano has ice and sugar according to your request.” The assistant placed a stack of printed documents on the table.
Carl picked up his coffee cup and took a sip. He looked at the documents on the table and was worried.
Rhys smiled and said, “Professor, you’ve had too much work these past two days. Did you pull an all-nighter again?”
Rhys was also an editor of the International Mathematics Journal. He graduated from Harlem University in Country M and participated in many international mathematics forums.
“Yeah, the International Mathematics Forum is about to start. There have been too many papers recently.”
The International Mathematics Forum was the golden age of the mathematics world. Every year, many important topics would be discussed at this time.
“Yeah, I’ve received a lot of theses recently. These scholars are really too eager for success. Some of the theories don’t have any practical significance at all.” Rhys yawned too.
“Look, 1 saw one just now. She’s from China and is studying the Kratz’s conjecture. I guess he’s just repeating the previous theory. 1 really don’t know what’s going on with these Chinese people.” Rhys casually put the thesis aside.
He had always been biased against the Chinese.
China focused on exams, not mathematical thinking. Moreover, the corruption in China’s academic world was a little serious. Every year, half of the papers submitted were unbearable.
Someone had plagiarized Rhys’s thesis and submitted it as theirs.
Carl laughed. “You can’t kill everyone with one shot. I remember a professor named Tian Hai who left a deep impression on me. He was very famous internationally at the time and had been working on this conjecture for more than 50 years.”
Rhys shook his head. “It’s already a miracle that there’s a teacher like Tian Hai in China’s examination system. I don’t think there’ll be another person as good as Tian Hai in decades.”
Rhys had always been biased against China’s examination system. He felt that students should be trained according to their personalities.
However, China’s examination system treated everyone like plasticine, pressing them into a mold and making them into the same shape in the end.
“You can’t say that completely. Maybe someone is different.” Carl picked up the thesis from the table and read it. Suddenly, he was stunned.
His eyes, which were originally closed, widened in disbelief as he read the thesis.
“This is?” He quickly flipped through the thesis. “This seems to be a document that proves Kratz’s conjecture.”
“Huh?” Rhys looked as if he had heard a joke. “Why is someone so overconfident to prove Kratz’s conjecture? I’m afraid he’s not joking with me, right?”
Kratz’s conjecture had been a difficult problem for many years. Many mathematicians had spent their entire lives trying to solve it. How could it be solved so easily?
Rhys stood up and took the paper from Carl.
As he looked at it, he was also stunned. The content was very detailed, and he could not see anything wrong with it.
“I might need to calculate this result…” Rhys said, “Although I’ve never seen this solution before, it’s very shocking…”
He was so excited that he was incoherent. He had been fascinated by this theory for many years, but he did not achieve much.
However, a Chinese person had actually proved this conjecture. This made him somewhat incredulous.
Carl patted him on the shoulder. “Rhys, it seems that we can’t use our own impressions to judge others. This scholar from China might really be a very powerful person.”
Rhys nodded and began to read the thesis carefully.
Rhys spent the whole day reading the 50-page thesis. When the setting sun in City B lit up his office, Rhys finally closed the file and sighed deeply..
