Chapter 371: Plagiarizing
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Cui Zhen whose eyes widened in disbelief.
How was this possible? She was the only one who knew about that matter. How did Guo Miao find out?
“Miss Cui Zhen, your mother should be called Huang Li, right? She was an international student at Beijing University back then.”
Upon hearing the name Huang Li, Tian Hai stood up from his chair and stared at Cui Zhen.
Chang Yuan, who was watching the live broadcast in the classroom, suddenly stood up. He looked at the big screen and grabbed the back of his chair tightly.
“Huang Li…” he said through gritted teeth.
“Back then, your mother took my teacher’s academic achievements and made them her own. My teacher had no one to turn to for help for many years. In the end, she could only give up her studies and return to Haicheng to become an ordinary high school teacher,” Guo Miao said slowly as she brought up the past in front of Cui Zhen.
The reason why Chang Yuan chose to return to Haicheng back then was not only because of his family but also because his academic achievements had been stolen.
Huang Li was his senior.
At that time, Chang Yuan was the most talented student on Tian Hai’s research team. He had just become a graduate and already had very solid research results. However, Huang Li used some dirty methods to steal these results and publish them in advance.
At that time, the internet was not developed, and he could only rely on letters to contact the editorial department of the journal. Therefore, by the time Chang Yuan found out, his thesis had already been published.
He didn’t tell the teacher at that point. Instead, he wanted to rely on his own strength to defend his rights. However, who would have thought that this path would be riddled with challenges? In the end, he could only give up.
When it rained, it poured. Something happened to his family at that time.
These two matters dealt a huge blow to Chang Yuan, so he gave up the opportunity to continue his studies and returned to Haicheng to become an ordinary math teacher.
Tian Hai looked at Cui Zhen in disbelief. Huang Li and Cui Zhen looked very similar.
Back then, after Huang Li published this thesis, she did not publish any other papers. Instead, she used this background to find a job as a professor in Country K.
Now, it seemed that all of this should have been Chang Yuan’s.
“And your mother also took Mr. Chang Yuan’s manuscript, right?” Guo Miao looked at Huang Li and flipped to the next page. It was Chang Yuan’s manuscript and an appraisal from an internationally renowned institution.
“The time you published your academic results in ‘Mathematical Theory’ was way after when my teacher’s manuscript was published.” Guo Miao frowned as she stared at Cui Zhen.
Cui Zhen trembled violently. She didn’t expect Guo Miao to prepare so much in advance.
“You must have wanted to trap me, so you specially forged the test results. You Chinese are very cunning. Don’t think 1 don’t know!” Cui Zhen said.
She didn’t come up with the content of her theory on her own. For so many years, she had been relying on this theoretical achievement to survive. She had even become an influential figure in the mathematics world of Country K.
However, her mother had given her these results back then, and she had to copy them.
“Why would I fake the test results? Could it be that I’m a prophet, so I prepared them?” Guo Miao sneered.
She did not do this to deal with Cui Zhen. She only had one goal: to vindicate Chang Yuan.
She had heard this story from Tian Hai. If Chang Yuan’s academic results hadn’t been stolen, he would have been one of the top mathematicians in China, but now he had to settle with being a math teacher.
The experts present were all shocked. They did not expect such a turn of events.
Just as everyone was looking at each other, Professor Longman stood up and said, “I remember Ms. Huang Li’s thesis. The International Mathematics Forum Committee will investigate this matter. If the investigation is successful, we will return the results of this paper to Mr. Chang Yuan.”
The International Mathematical Forum Committee was the most recognized mathematics organization.
If they interfered, it would mean that once Huang Li’s plagiarism was confirmed, Huang Li and Cui Zhen would be expelled from the world of mathematics.
Furthermore, Professor Longman had personally spoken about this matter, which meant that there was no room for negotiation.
Cui Zhen stood rooted to the ground and looked at Guo Miao in disbelief. Her back was already drenched in sweat.. She thought that she could make things difficult for Guo Miao, but who would have known that Guo Miao had already dug a hole for her to jump into?
