Chapter 199: Obtaining Favors from Fields Medal Winners

July 15, 2028!

In the evening, Ye Fei landed in Xiangjiang by plane.

He was accompanied by two of his students.

The Shaw Prize is an international award, and the participating scholars are all internationally renowned scholars.

Therefore, while Ye Fei was receiving the award, he took his two students out to see the world.

"Professor Ye!" As soon as Ye Fei came out of the airport, he heard someone calling him.

Ye Fei turned around and saw a short middle-aged man wearing short sleeves standing not far away.

Ye Fei took his two students, greeted him with a smile, and said, "Director Ma, long time no see, hello!"

Director Ma was the same Director Ma who entertained Ye Fei during his entire trip to Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

As he spoke, the two approached and shook hands eagerly.

After letting go, Director Ma smiled and said: "Professor Ye, things are different now. I can hear many legendary rumors about you in Xiangjiang."

"You are no longer an ordinary professor today!"

Director Ma was filled with emotions. In just a few years, Ye Fei had grown into a well-known Xia scholar with development in many fields.

Ye Fei shook his head funny and said: "Director Ma, please stop entertaining me. I am still me, an ordinary scholar."

Director Ma laughed and said: "If you are still an ordinary scholar, then all scholars in the world will be ordinary scholars."

Ye Fei looked to the left and right, and there were people coming and going all around. They were standing at the exit of the station.

Ye Feidao: "Let's stop bragging about each other in this business, let's go!"

"Okay!" Director Ma nodded: "Please!"

After saying that, Director Ma led Ye Fei and the others towards the parking lot.

Afterwards, we got into a shiny black business car and the driver drove towards the hotel.

After getting on the bus, Ye Fei introduced his two students to Director Ma.

Director Ma looked at Ye Fei's two students and said with a smile: "You must be exceptional to be Professor Ye's students!"

The two of them lowered their heads shyly, and Lin Yi said sarcastically: "Nothing, we are very ordinary."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, we are very ordinary."

Ye Fei nodded and said to himself: "Yes, honest."

Although Wang Yuan and Lin Yi have good mathematical talents.

But it is only good among ordinary people. Compared with mathematical geniuses, there is still a certain gap.

Ye Fei predicts that it is impossible for these two people to become internationally renowned scholars in the future.

But it is possible to become a famous scholar in Xia Kingdom.

Director Ma looked at Ye Fei and said with a smile: "Your students are just like you, they are very low-key!"

Lin Yi added: "It's just that our mentor discovered us among a group of outstanding people."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Yuan, who nodded and said, "Yes, it was our mentor who discovered us among a group of outstanding people."

Director Ma's expression was stagnant, and he looked at Ye Feidao: "You two students have really interesting personalities, haha..."

"Haha..." Ye Fei smiled awkwardly, then secretly glared at Wang Yuan and Lin Yi.

Wang Yuan and Lin Yi lowered their heads slightly and smiled sheepishly.

Afterwards, Ye Fei and Director Ma chatted some gossip.

Both of them are from academic circles, so naturally they talk about academic circles.

Although in terms of status, Ye Fei's status in the academic circle is much higher than that of Director Ma.

But Director Ma has been staying in Xiangjiang for many years. As the forefront city of Xia Guo International, all walks of life and fields are in line with international standards.

Therefore, Director Ma knows much more about the international academic community than Ye Fei does.

Director Ma said: "I have also heard about the Web 3.0 you developed, but I heard that Beili Country is also investing a lot of money in the development of Web 3.0."

"Professors from many of the world's top universities and top scholars in the mathematics and computer fields have been invited by Beili to conduct research."

“Even some Fields Medal winners and Turing Award winners have been invited.”

"The investment alone is more than 50 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to the index finger of a large international listed company."

"Now it seems that Beili Country is very determined to develop Web 3.0."

"And you said at the press conference that Web 3.0 will be developed by the end of December this year. Are you confident that Web 3.0 will be developed before Beili Country develops Web 3.0?"

Ye Fei nodded and said: "Of course, money is very important for scientific research, and talent is also very important."

“But it doesn’t mean that the more money you invest and the more talent you have, the more successful research and development will be.”

"If this were the case, it would not have been so long since our country developed low-nanometer lithography machines."

"Is Xia Guo short of money?"

“No shortage!”

"Is there a shortage of talent?"

"There is no shortage either."

"So, for scientific research, although money and talents are closely related, the success of scientific research is not determined only by money and talents."

"Yes!" Director Ma nodded and said, "I agree with what you said."

Director Ma suddenly said seriously: "I just want to know now, can you really develop Web3.0 before the end of December?"

"Don't lie to me. I'm not asking on behalf of myself alone. I'm asking on behalf of many people in the academic circle in Xiangjiang."

"They are all very concerned about this."

In the past, Hong Kong, Bay Province, Korea and New Kingdom were the Four Asian Tigers.

Now, Xia Continent is the only dragon in Asia, and the other countries are younger brothers, relying on Xia Continent for development.

Therefore, Xiangjiang has always paid close attention to the Xia Kingdom Continent.

Any disturbance in the mainland will attract Xiangjiang's attention.

Not only the academic community is paying attention, but also all walks of life and fields in Hong Kong are paying attention.

An event as big as Web3.0 can change the living habits of the entire planet.

Naturally, it attracted a lot of attention from Xiangjiang.

Ye Fei saw Director Ma's serious expression and said seriously: "Director Ma, I sincerely tell you that this is true. We will definitely develop Web3.0 before the end of December."

"We originally planned to launch Web 3.0 this month, but because of Buterin's departure, one of the four core technologies of the blockchain is missing."

"This will cause Web3.0 to be unable to be opened, and now we have found a way to replace Buterin's blockchain system."

"Moreover, the main research has been successful. It will definitely be successful in November this year, and Web3.0 can be launched in December."

When Director Ma heard this, he felt relieved.

Since Ye Fei said this, it means that Web3.0 will definitely be successfully developed by the end of December.

As a native of Xiangjiang and Xia, Director Ma naturally hopes that Web 3.0 will be launched in Xia and does not want Beili’s conspiracy to succeed.

Xiaguo mainland is good, Xiangjiang is good!

When the country is strong, the people are strong!

As a member of the Xia Kingdom, he certainly hopes that the country will become stronger and stronger.

Director Ma smiled and said: "This puts me at ease. Professor Ye, I hope you can develop Web3.0 as soon as possible. I hope Web3.0 will be released in Xia State."

Ye Fei smiled confidently: "I will definitely do it."

While talking, the car drove into a hotel.

Ye Fei got off the car and pulled her suitcase into the hotel to check in.

This hotel was arranged by the Shaw Prize Council.

Everyone attending the Shaw Awards Ceremony stayed at this hotel.

After completing the check-in procedures, Director Ma said: "I won't go up. I will come to Hong Kong University of Technology when I have time. After all, you are also a visiting professor of Hong Kong University of Technology."

When Director Ma heard that Ye Fei was coming to Xiangjiang, he specially sent Ye Fei to the hotel and discussed some things with Ye Fei.

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Okay!"

After Director Ma left, Ye Fei took the elevator upstairs with his luggage.
