Chapter 242 Lin Chen is missing
what?
Will the Cheng Zitong Award not go to Lin Chen?
Why?
The information that Long-Term University of Science and Technology received came from one of the judges on the Cheng Tzu-Tung Award judging committee.
In fact, this judge is a professor at Longyan University of Technology.
In fact, for these kinds of awards, the judges are usually decided before the awards are announced, since they are not world-class awards and the results are not known until the very last moment.
Moreover, after learning this news, Longke University guessed that the news was probably deliberately leaked by someone else.
As for the reason, it's the reason why Lin Chen couldn't win the award.
"Reason? What reason?"
Upon learning of this news, Old Wang immediately inquired about it.
Principal Xu and Secretary Jin exchanged a glance, then explained with a wry smile, "They want an apology from Lin Chen!"
"That old man is still harping on this matter?"
Old Wang complained.
I never expected Cheng Zitong to be so petty.
"Old Wang, it seems that Old Cheng is still angry. He said at the judging panel that his mathematics award is to encourage the cultivation of mathematical talents in China, but the development of talents should also focus on morality."
Lin Chen insulted him in public first, and then that kid lectured him again when he came to our school that day. It's not surprising that he can't swallow this insult.
A professor surnamed Sun nearby offered an explanation.
Old Wang understood immediately.
As expected, this was the result of Lin Chen scolding him again last time.
"This is troublesome. Getting that kid to apologize? I think it's unlikely."
Old Wang didn't think Lin Chen was the type to apologize easily; if he wanted to apologize, he would have done so last time.
Principal Xu became anxious: "Old Wang, are you really going to watch Lin Chen lose this opportunity?"
After all, this is the Cheng Zitong Mathematics Award! Even if Lin Chen doesn't care, it still benefits our school!
Secretary Jin also said, "Yes, there's still the commendation ceremony. What will happen to the commendation ceremony if Lin Chen can't receive an award?"
"Should I ask again? After all, Elder Cheng didn't give a definitive answer at the meeting..."
Seeing that the two leaders nodded, Professor Sun immediately contacted the review committee. Later, he personally made several phone calls to several acquaintances on the committee, asking them to put in a good word for him.
From Longke University's perspective, Lin Chen's achievement this time is outstanding!
Goldbach's Conjecture!
This is one of the most prestigious conjectures for the Nobel Prize in Mathematics.
Since its inception, countless mathematical masters have devoted their efforts to this conjecture but have failed to succeed.
But now Lin Chen has broken through it.
Such a great achievement, doesn't it deserve a mathematics award in China?
Cheng Zitong is a big shot, how could she be so petty?
Unfortunately, the people from Long University of Science and Technology misjudged their opponent.
Who is Cheng Zitong?
In his own eyes, he is the Caesar of the world of mathematics today!
As the only man to have won all three major international mathematics awards, what right does Lin Chen have to point his finger at him and berate him?
Have you fed the Chinese people's spirit of respecting teachers to the dogs?
I'm sorry, although he has always identified himself as American, he still remembered his bloodline at this moment.
Don't accuse them of double standards. The prestige of the world's three major awards speaks for itself. Who dares to object?
So in the end, despite Professor Sun's efforts to pull strings, he still couldn't persuade the other party.
However, Lin Chen's achievement this time is too great. Even Cheng Zitong has to consider the consequences of not letting Lin Chen win the award.
At Tsinghua and Peking University, Cheng Zitong sipped the tea brewed by Old Wu and said with a smile, "Old Wu, are you also acting as a go-between for that kid?"
Old Wu said with a forced smile, "Old Cheng, I witnessed your conflict with that kid firsthand. But if you don't want him to receive this award, you should at least consider the credibility of this award, right?"
“I’ve also seen the list of nominees this year. To be honest, if the outside world finds out that Lin Chen didn’t win this award, there will be a lot of controversy. In my opinion, you should each compromise.”
Cheng Zitong put down her teacup: "Alright, for your sake, let him write a written apology."
"Okay, a written apology will definitely be fine!"
Seeing Mr. Wu happily go to make a phone call, Cheng Zitong sneered inwardly.
It seems that Longke University is also in a hurry, and even invited Professor Wu to act as a persuader.
I knew it would be like this. That kid doesn't care, but does your Dragon Science Conference not care?
I don't believe you guys aren't anxious.
Cheng Zitong thought that he would give Lin Chen a way out now, and then read Lin Chen's apology letter to everyone when the awards were presented!
By then, it will be too late even if Lin Chen is unwilling.
He wanted to vent his anger after what happened the last two times!
Do you really think that he, the emperor of mathematics, is a fake?
As for whether Lin Chen will really not be awarded an prize?
Cheng Zitong had never considered this from the beginning.
He wasn't stupid; he just wanted to use this award ceremony to put that kid down.
Cheng Zitong established this award to build his reputation in China.
He wouldn't let the credibility of the award he painstakingly established be ruined because of some brat.
He's not stupid, he wouldn't do that!
"Do we still want Lin Chen's apology? A written one will do. Okay, we'll do it ourselves!"
Upon learning this news, Principal Xu and his colleagues immediately came up with an idea.
It doesn't matter if Lin Chen is unwilling to apologize in person, Cheng Zitong has already given him a way out, all he needs to do is write a written apology.
The school will write the apology letter, and Lin Chen will just need to sign it.
This can be considered a win-win situation for everyone.
So the school immediately found several professors with good writing skills, and the group wrote a beautifully worded and sincere apology letter for Lin Chen. Then they waited for Lin Chen to sign it.
But unexpectedly, another accident happened when it came time to sign!
Lin Chen has disappeared!
"What do you mean? Lin Chen is missing? Where could he have gone?"
Principal Xu was anxious. The winners of the Cheng Zitong Award were about to be announced. Where could Lin Chen go at this time?
Besides, it's not the holidays yet, where could a student like him go?
Principal Xu urgently summoned Xia Jieli, Lin Chen's counselor.
"Teacher Xia, I just want to ask you, where did Lin Chen go?"
Although Xia Jieli was a teacher, she was rarely approached by the principal in person.
I was a little nervous for a moment.
"Lin, Lin Chen? He's on leave."
"A request for leave? What kind of leave? Call him back right now!"
"But...I'm afraid that won't work, will it?"
Seeing that Xia Jieli seemed to be hiding something, Old Wang quickly pressed her for an answer: "Xia, we have something urgent to discuss with Lin Chen! Tell us quickly, where did he go?"
Principal Xu also hurriedly said, "Hurry up and tell us! We're all waiting for him to sign!"
Xia Jieli spread her hands and could only say, "Principal Xu, Lin Chen went to participate in the National Games."
"what?"
This time, not only Principal Xu was stunned, but even Old Wang was dumbfounded.
"What National Games?"
"Of course it's the National Games being held in Guangzhou! Lin Chen is currently on the Beijing track and field team and is representing Beijing in the competition!"
