Chapter 352: Haicheng University Professor

If she could publish a decent thesis at this age, she should have a chance to be admitted to a top university in Beijing.

Guo Miao nodded.

“I can try. But I’m not sure if the professor recognizes me or not,” said Guo Miao.

“You can try.” Chang Yuan took out a business card from the drawer and handed it to Guo Miao. “He’s an old friend of mine. We’ve known each other for many years. Do your best and strive to make me proud.”

Guo Miao nodded and looked down at the business card.

Professor Lu Dong, Haicheng University.

Haicheng University was the best university in Haicheng. Although it had not been established for a long time, the school had a strong teaching force. In recent years, many talents had been poached from universities across the country.

Professor Lu Dong was one of them.

Professor Lu Dong had graduated from Beijing University and studied under the famous mathematics professor, Tian Hai. The two of them had been researching the Kratz conjecture for many years. They made some achievements last year and published a thesis in an international journal. Lu Dong’s name was still on Beijing University’s honor roll.

Guo Miao didn’t go to see Lu Dong in person. Instead, she sent him the information about her performance in the competition.

Lu Dong didn’t reply directly and gave Guo Miao a formula to prove.

Guo Miao opened the formula file and gradually frowned.

Wasn’t this formula Kratz’s conjecture? Did Lu Dong want her to verify it instantly?

This professor was quite interesting.

Three days later, in the cafe at the entrance of Haicheng University, two men were sitting at a table, drinking coffee.

“Old Chang, your student isn’t very creative.” Lu Dong looked at the computer and said, “It’s been three days, and such a simple formula hasn’t been proven yet.”

Lu Dong had read the information that Guo Miao compiled that day. The information was about the IMO competition. Although it was very detailed, it still lacked innovation.

Guo Miao only wanted to win the competition and didn’t want to use it to publish a thesis, so it didn’t look complete.

“What formula? How is that possible? This student of mine is a genius.” Chang Yuan didn’t understand.

How could a student like Guo Miao have problems with her creativity?

“I think you’ve been in high school for too long and have misjudged the students.” Lu Dong raised his head. It was definitely not a problem for this student to take the exam. Her mathematical foundation was even more solid than the undergraduate students he taught. However, proving this kind of difficult problem still required a strong ability to be creative.

Although creativity depended on talent, it also required long-term accumulation.

Lu Dong had never approved of high school students participating in his research because high school students generally had less accumulation and their creativity did not meet his requirements.

Although Chang Yuan was a little surprised, he still said, “Not necessarily. Maybe she thought too much about the solution?”

“Sigh, you shouldn’t recommend people to me in the future. I think high school students should prepare for the college entrance examination and not participate in these things.” Lu Dong shook his head and continued working on his computer.

At this moment, Lu Dong’s computer rang with a notification.

“Look, it’s already the third day, and she just sent me an email. She really can’t join our project team like this,” Lu Dong said as he opened the document. “Such a child should hurry up and study hard to prepare for the college entrance examination. What is this?”

Lu Dong suddenly stopped and looked at the computer screen in disbelief.

Chang Yuan also came over and looked at the computer.

The question on the screen wasn’t the formula that Lu Dong had given Guo Miao, but the original Kratz’s conjecture.

“Ugh, that’s my problem. Why did I send Kratz’s conjecture over? She wouldn’t be able to prove it even in 30 years, let alone three days.” Lu Dong patted his head.

Chang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. “Didn’t I tell you? Guo Miao is quite capable. Look, she has done quite a lot.”

Lu Dong swiped on the screen and saw Guo Miao’s question. He didn’t expect Guo Miao to be able to prove so much.

“This child is more talented than I thought,” Lu Dong said as he looked at the document on the screen. However, the more he looked at it, the more he was stunned.

Guo Miao had already proven it to the point at which he and his teacher had proven it together before, but the document didn’t seem to be finished yet..
