Chapter 31: Medal of Honor

Walking through the two corridors, Calvin led Chen Luo and Britney to a secluded room, and when Chen Luo walked into the room, he found that there were already several people waiting inside.

These people, except for the other two vice presidents, are all senior deacons of the Mathematical Society, these people Britney has already met just now, Calvin introduced them to Chen Luo one by one, Chen Luo also nodded politely one by one, as for their names that sounded very tongue-twisting, he didn't remember any of them.

After some introduction, Britney looked at Calvin and asked, "President Calvin, did you call us over for something?"

Calvin smiled, looked at Chen Luo and Britney, and said, "I would like to invite the two of you to join the Apor City Mathematics Branch. ”

As soon as Calvin spoke, Chen Luo understood his purpose.

There are many associations in this world, including the Magic Society, the Mathematics Society, the Science Society, the Medical Society, the Astrology Society, the Alchemy Society, and so on......

Generally speaking, scholars with a little fame will choose to join the corresponding associations, in which they can discuss with other scholars and share resources, which is of great benefit to their own long-term development.

Scholars obtain resources from associations, and for associations, these scholars are also a resource, such as the Magic Association, which will take a part of the remuneration of magical advisors as commissions, such as the Mathematical Association, the Science Association, etc., and also have their own ways of making profits.

Scholars and associations are a mutually beneficial and win-win relationship, of course, no association can enter if you want to, each association has a certain threshold, and within the association, there will be different factions according to different ideas or regions.

Even the former teacher Britney Spears was not qualified to join the Mathematics Association, and Chen Luo, as a little-known small character, was invited by the Mathematics Association, which was even more incredible.

It is nothing more than that the Apor City Mathematics Branch has taken a fancy to the Nine Bridges problem, and if Chen Luo's article can be published from the Apor City Mathematics Branch, it will have a great impact on their fame.

Britney's face showed a thoughtful look, joining the Mathematical Society, both for her and for Blair, it is of great benefit, of course, to join the Mathematical Association, they also need to fulfill certain obligations, before joining the Apor City Chapter, her article can be voted to any chapter, and after joining the Apor City Chapter, it can only be published through the Apor City Chapter.

They have received more resources through the Apor Chapter, and they can enjoy the services of the Mathematical Society, and the Apor Mathematics Chapter needs their research results to improve its reputation.

The reason why Vice President Calvin invited Blair this time must be because of the royal capital Jiuqiao.

Come to think of it, countless chapters, including the Royal Capital Association, have been solved by the Arpo City Branch, which is of great significance to the Arpo City Branch.

After Britney informed Chen Luo of the relationship, she asked, "Blair, what do you think?"

Chen Luo shook his head and said indifferently, "I listen to Teacher Britney." ”

In his heart, Chen Luo was reluctant to join the Mathematical Association, which would waste a lot of his time, even after joining the Mathematical Association, he would be able to gain fame, wealth, and power more easily......

But he didn't care about any of that.

After all, the Mathematical Association is not a Magic Association, and the scholars of the Mathematical Association are not recognized by the Magic Association, and in the Magic Association, there are very few things that can be bought with money, and those Chen Luo needs, advanced magical knowledge, need to be exchanged for contributions.

If he wants to get help in magic, he can either find a powerful magician to be a teacher, or join the Magic Association and contribute to the Association, the latter is currently impossible, Chen Luo does not have this strength, so he can only listen to Teacher Britney.

Britney looked at Chen Luo and saw unreserved trust in his eyes.

Calvin continued, "Both of you are very good mathematicians, and if you join the chapter, the chapter will award you the Medal of Honor in return, and the chapter will do its best to help you win the Edwin Award......"

A deacon of the Mathematical Association was stunned when he heard this, and immediately said: "Your Excellency Calvin, isn't this year's Medal of Honor to be awarded to Douglas......"

Calvin smiled, still looking at Britney, and asked, "Miss Britney, I think Mr. Blair is more suitable for this medal, what do you think?"

The award of the Medal of Honor of the Mathematical Association must go through the Royal Capital Association, and even the Arpo City branch only has two Medal of Honor places each year.

Britney looked at Chen Luo, the Medal of Honor is a proof of identity, a proof of ability, Blair is still young, if he wants to take this path in the future, this Medal of Honor will bring him countless benefits.

Moreover, as a scholar, sooner or later you have to join the Mathematical Association, and this invitation from the Apor chapter is a rare opportunity.

After careful consideration, she looked at Calvin and said, "I agree......"

Calvin smiled and said, "Please sit here for a moment, we are about to issue this year's Medal of Honor." ”

......

The main purpose of the academic salon is to provide a platform for scholars to communicate.

In addition, the academic salon in October every year is also the time when the association issues the Medal of Honor, which is a reward for scholars who have made significant contributions and a recognition of their ability.

The people who receive the Medal of Honor are called Honorary Scholars, and these people are the core of every association, they are noble, high-status, and will be respected anywhere in the kingdom, and to some extent, the scholars who receive the Medal of Honor are the real scholars, and most of the people present can only be counted as mathematical researchers.

The Apor City Mathematics Chapter receives two junior Medals of Honor each year to reward scholars in the branch who have made significant research achievements, and the attribution of these two Medals of Honor was roughly guessed before the salon began.

One of the two medals will definitely be awarded to the solver of the riddle of Raus, after all, it is a remarkable discovery in the entire mathematical community, a milestone, and Miss Britney deserves it.

What's more, the Apor City chapter also wants to recommend her to win the Edwin Award, and will definitely make sufficient preparations for this.

As for the other medal, it would have belonged to Douglas, and if it weren't for Britney's sideways, Douglas would have been the most accomplished mathematician in Apor City this year, the most likely to win the Edwin Prize.

The awarding of the Medal of Honor is a grand ceremony for mathematical scholars, and scholars all want to witness this scene, however, at tonight's academic salon, Chen Luo successfully shifted everyone's attention to the issue of the Nine Bridges in the imperial capital, and the matter of the Medal of Honor has been almost forgotten by scholars.

It wasn't until Calvin and the reappearance of several vice presidents of the Mathematical Society that everyone was reminded of this incident.

"President Calvin should be awarding the Medal of Honor......"

"I almost forgot, the Medal of Honor will be awarded tonight!"

"I don't know who this medal will be awarded to, this is a medal of honor, I don't know if I have the opportunity to become an honorary scholar in my life......"

"Who else could it be, Miss Britney and Mr. Douglas, and only their achievements are worthy of the Medal of Honor. ”

......

Listening to the discussion of the people around him, in the crowd, Douglas's gloomy face finally improved, and a smile began to appear on the corner of his mouth.

"As we all know, in recognition of scholars who have made great contributions to mathematics, the Mathematical Association selects and awards the Medal of Honor to the outstanding among them every year, and today, the Mathematical Association of Apor Chapter will present this honor to two outstanding mathematical scholars. ”

Calvin's words, with the blessing of wind magic, reached the ears of everyone present.

At this moment, everyone present, whether they were burying their heads in deep thought or whispering with their companions, temporarily stopped what they were doing and looked in Calvin's direction.

The Medal of Honor, for them, means too much.

It is the recognition of the association, it is a status symbol, and having a medal of honor means that they have become a real scholar, and others will call them from "sir" to "excellency".

When the surroundings were quiet, Calvin took a delicate box from the hands of a deacon and said slowly: "The riddle of Raus was once the most perplexing mystery in the history of mathematics, and its solution can be called a monument in the history of mathematics, and it is of extraordinary significance to the entire mathematical community. After discussions in the association, the first recipient of the Medal of Honor was, the proposer of the Britney-Blair formula and one of the solvers of the mystery of Raus...... Lord Britney!"

As expected, after Calvin's words fell, the audience erupted in violent applause.

The significance of the mystery of Raus was well known to the scholars present, and this achievement alone made her eligible for the Medal of Honor.

Calvin took the Medal of Honor from the box with both hands and handed it to Britney.

After doing all this, Calvin looked at the crowd, stretched out his hands, pressed down, and waited until the applause subsided, took another box from the deacon's hand, and said again: "The recipient of the second Medal of Honor is ......"

Under Debbie's adoring eyes, Douglas smiled and slowly walked out of the crowd while meeting everyone's gaze.

"The proposer of Britney-Blair's formula, one of the solvers of the riddle of Raus, and the solver of the problem of the Nine Bridges of the Royal Capital, he is the ......" Calvin's voice was steady, and he said slowly: "Your Excellency Blair!"

In the crowd, Douglas's footsteps slowly stopped, and a piece of fruit that Isabella had managed to fork fell to the ground along with the fork.
