Graduating and becoming a tenured honorary professor at his alma mater is something to be proud of for anyone.

Of course, for Li Mu, there are still many things to do on this trip back to China.

For example, the National Day is about to begin, and there are some meetings in Beijing, and he is also invited to participate.

This trip to Beijing also allowed him to meet a lot of bigwigs again.

Every bigwig showed him concern.

In particular, he also met an old man named Fang Weiguo, who was in his nineties.

This old man has participated in many wars in the last century, large and small, and has left a lot of credit for defending the country.

And because he had a good relationship with Chen Jingrun in the last century, he could be called an old friend, so he expressed his special appreciation for Li Mu.

"My relationship with Lao Chen, that's a good one, hey, speaking of which, I also asked him for math problems back then."

In the courtyard, Li Mu was invited by Elder Fang to come here and listen to Elder Fang tell the story of the year.

"As a result, I still overestimated my own ability, why is this math so difficult?"

"I think I was also a famous talent in ten miles and eight towns back then, but as soon as I did that math problem, it was like breaking my head into 4 pieces, and I had a terrible headache."

Listening to Elder Fang's story, Li Mu couldn't help laughing.

Next to him, Fang Lao's grandson, Fang Ning smiled and said, "So there is a saying, what can't you do if you kill me?" I can't do this math problem even if I am killed. ”

"Then I'll kill you, can you get the first place in the class in math?"

Elder Fang glanced at his eldest grandson.

Fang Ning suddenly covered his head: "Don't talk about this matter when you keep talking, okay?" ”

"Learn from Brother Li." Elder Fang pointed at Li Mu: "Don't let you prove Goldbach's conjecture or something, don't lose your old man's face." ”

As he spoke, Elder Fang suddenly covered his head and rubbed it: "Hey, I remember that your kid only scored so much in the math test last time, and I have a headache now." ”

"I'll definitely do well next time!" Fang Ning hurriedly said.

It's just that Li Mu frowned slightly.

Once the old man has a headache, it is not simple.

Having absorbed a lot of biomedical knowledge, he is now more or less a very professional biomedical scientist, glancing at the place where Fang Lao was covering, he turned his head and said to Fang Ning: "Fang Lao should have a health care team, right?" Go and let them come over and check on Elder Fang. ”

Fang Ning was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted: "I know!" I'm going to scream! ”

But Elder Fang waved his hand: "Hey, it's a problem, it's not a big deal." ”

Li Mu shook his head: "Elder Fang, you should pay more attention to your body." ”

"What can I pay attention to, people are old, a little bit of physical illness or something is normal, don't I live to ninety now?" Fang Laolang said with a smile: "Confucius lived to be 73, Mencius was only 84, my life is worth it." ”

Seeing the old man look away like this, Li Mu also laughed: "With your mentality, you can still have a hundred birthdays, let alone a hundred years." ”

"Hahaha, then I'll borrow your auspicious words!" Fang Lao said with a hearty smile.

After the two spoke a few more words, after a while, several doctors from the health care team also rushed over, and after examining Fang Lao, the director said, "Fang Lao, your blood pressure has become high again, have you been drinking again recently?" ”

"No, absolutely not!" Elder Fang shook his head again and again.

Fang Ning, who was narrating, immediately reported: "My grandfather has hidden wine under his bed!" ”

"You stinky boy! It hurts you in vain! Old Fang suddenly blew his beard and glared, making Fang Ning shrink his head for a while.

The chief doctor immediately frowned and said, "Elder Fang, you said you are ...... Alas! ”

Sighing, he said: "I will report this matter to Mr. Fang Cunping, you really can't drink too much, this will lead to ......"

"I know, I know, isn't it atherosclerosis, blood clots, high blood pressure?" Fang Lao said: "Hey, it's okay, Xiao Chen, it's enough to emphasize once, I will definitely drink less in the future, and don't call my son over." ”

"It's not that you drink less, it's that you can't drink at all."

"You're killing me!"

……

Soon, the people from the health care team prescribed some more medicine to Fang Lao, told him to take it on time, and left.

Li Mu was also left here, and when it was time for dinner, he had a meal with Elder Fang.

But while eating, suddenly, Fang Ning exclaimed, "Eh! Faun, do you still have a letter with Mr. Chen Jingrun's grandson? ”

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and corresponded with Chen Jingrun's grandson?

Soon he remembered the letter he had written earlier, and then nodded and said, "Yes, I did write to him after my report on Goldbach's conjecture was over, but how do you know?" ”

Fang Ning pointed to his phone and said, "He put the letter you wrote on the Internet...... This letter of yours is ...... written That's great! ”

Li Mu was stunned for a moment.

It seems that after so many days, the letter he wrote has also been sent from the British to Chen Li, the grandson of Chen Jingrun.

It's just that Chen Li put the content of the letter on the Internet?

“怎么一回事儿？ Fang Lao next to him immediately put down his chopsticks and asked, "What is written in the letter?" ”

"Look."

Fang Ningdang even handed the phone to Fang Lao.

Fang Lao took it and looked at it, and after a while, he showed an expression of amazement, and then gave Li Mu a thumbs up.

“写的太好了，如果每个有才华的人，都能够像你这样保持一颗谦虚的人，也许我们的世界要比现在更加精彩吧。”

Saying that, he also handed the mobile phone to Li Mu, "Look at you, you shouldn't know yet, take a look." ”

Li Mu took the phone and looked at it.

这是一篇微博文章，而发布文章的作者，是一个个人账号，不过名字就是陈景润之孙陈立。

It should be a new account.

[I am Chen Jingrun's grandson, Chen Li. After hearing that Mr. Li Mu proved Goldbach's conjecture, I wrote a letter of thanks to him to thank him for fulfilling my grandfather's wish, and a few days ago, I received his reply, after reading this reply, I have a deafening and enlightening feeling, which also made me realize what kind of admirable person Mr. Li Mu is, and I think this kind of thing should not be only known to me, and this reply should not belong only to me, so I will publish it, I hope everyone can know that Mr. Li Mu is not just a genius! 】

Then below, he attached a photo of Li Mu's reply.

When Li Mu saw it, he naturally recognized the letter, which was the reply he wrote.

This Weibo has attracted tens of thousands of replies, as well as tens of thousands of likes and retweets.

With such data, it has probably been on the hot search, and at least it is in the top few places.

Entering the comment area, the comments of netizens are also full of amazement.

[The Faun God wrote so well! That's our genius! Always maintain humility in order to be able to continue to break through]

What is a pattern? It's called pattern! 】

[The pattern is bigger! The Faun is awesome! 】

[A true master always has the heart of an apprentice]

[I won't be surprised if I see this letter, and the shepherd will solve any difficult problems in the future]

[The god of faun is the god of faun!] In addition to being a god in learning, he also seems to have a divine nature in character! 】

[Stand on the shoulders of giants!] Professor Li, you are also a giant! 】

[After reading it, it also gave me a deafening feeling, the faun can maintain such a mentality, and I should also learn from the faun! 】

[The handwriting is so beautiful, and the letter is so good! Forever dripping gods! 】

[When the stars of mankind shine! 】

……

In the list of comments, there was no critical words at all, and every netizen seemed to be aroused at this moment with high respect and respect for Li Mu.

There are many famous ideas or opinions in history, or even works, that were born in letters.

For example, Einstein wrote a letter to his friend, in which he talked about his views on God, expressed his belief in Spinoza's God, and more so far back, it was like Goldbach's letter to Euler.

There are even more in domestic history, such as "The Book of Acknowledgment", etc., there are many well-known poems, which were also born in letters.

It's just that in modern times, with the increasing convenience of electronic communication, correspondence has gradually been eliminated, so there are few such letters that can arouse people's amazement.

And today, the letter that Li Mu expressed what he thought in his heart had such an effect.

Li Mu put down the phone and handed it back to Fang Ning.

Fang Ning looked at Li Mu's gaze at this time, and there were gradually signs of transformation from the previous kind of worship to fanaticism.

And Fang Lao looked at Li Mu's gaze, and he also appreciated it more and more.

It's hard not to like a talented young man with such an excellent character, and it's hard not to like the older generation like him.

Probably if he has a granddaughter, it is estimated that he will immediately form a doll kiss with Li Mu.

Of course, he still asked, "Li Mu, are you married?" Are you interested in finding a girlfriend? I'll introduce you, old man. ”

Li Mu suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.

……

In the end, Fang Lao's attempt to introduce a girlfriend to Li Mu naturally failed.

And Li Mu also left quickly after eating.

It's just that the letter about Li Mu has always been hot on the Internet, and it has gradually spread out of China and become known to the world.

In today's society, there is no one who does not admire those who are talented and virtuous, both at home and abroad.

As a result, as the content of Li Mu's reply letter came out, it was translated into more than a dozen languages, and after it was circulated all over the world, it immediately caused people of different nationalities to regard Li Mu as an idol.

And these are also the effects of the international community.

It was the letter that had the greatest impact on the academic community.

The prosperity of the academic world today, as written in Li Mu's letters, has been laid by successive generations, and we should thank every scholar for their contributions.

Such a letter can resonate and empathize with any scholar.

Suddenly, scholars from all over the world also responded.

In the field of mathematics, as Li Mu's doctoral supervisor, Andrew Wiles said in an interview: "Although I am Li Mu's teacher, I still want to say that Li Mu is worthy of the admiration of each of us, and each of us scientists together constitutes a scientific giant, and each of us is a giant!" ”

In the physics community, George Parisi, who has just been confirmed as the winner of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics by the Nobel Prize, also made the following assessment: "If all scientists form a scientific giant, then Li Mu can be called a scientific giant. ”

In the field of chemistry, Nobel laureate in chemistry Stanley Whittingham also said: "Thank you Li Mu for recognizing each of our scholars, and I hope that every scholar can remember that no matter how humble your position is, you will never forget that you are dedicated to the greatest cause of mankind - science." ”

……

No one knows what kind of impact Li Mu's letter will have on the academic community, but what people believe is that it will only be a good thing, not a bad thing.

Because it gives motivation to every researcher.

Mr. Lee...... Oh, now it's time to call you Professor Li. ”

"That letter of yours is very heartening for people like me."

Li Mu, who temporarily returned to his hometown in Qin'an City, suddenly received a call from Kingsley Weir.

That is, the former associate professor at ETH Zurich who is working on new thrombolytic drugs.

Li Mu smiled: "If it can help you, then it means that my letter is valuable." ”

"Haha, maybe it's because of your letter that my experiment suddenly got a breakthrough!"

"I think we're very close to success!"
