#271 - Chapter 271 How good is Lin Chen in mathematics?

After holding Xu Mengyao for a while, Lin Chen got up and went home. He needed to hurry and deal with some accumulated matters.

"So many emails."

Lin Chen muttered to himself as he opened his secure mailbox.

Several academicians and professors had sent him emails, and each of them had sent more than one.

When he was traveling, he was busy during the day and didn't have time. In the evening, Lin Chen was busy unblocking Xu Mengyao's meridians and didn't have time either.

"Academician Lin, we encountered a difficult problem before. This problem has troubled us for a long time, and we have wasted a lot of the country's money—"

Lin Chen clicked on an email sent by an academician.

There were dozens of pages of attachments to the email.

"This is going to kill me."

Lin Chen rubbed his forehead. He went out for a trip, and he didn't know how long it would take to deal with these accumulated emails.

Moreover, they had to go back to their hometown tomorrow.

He might as well take a laptop back with him openly.

Lin Chen spent an hour reading the dozens of pages of attachments.

"Academician Liang, the reason you failed is because the mathematical formula you used is wrong. The details are as follows—"

Lin Chen spent a lot of time replying. He couldn't answer this question before, but now his mathematics has reached the legendary level.

"Academician Liang, you must keep this confidential. If this spreads, other countries can avoid many detours."

Lin Chen instructed at the end.

Some academic knowledge is convenient to share, but some academic knowledge is better kept for oneself.

"It took two hours to reply to one email."

"This is too difficult for me."

Lin Chen looked at the time and muttered to himself.

Little did he know that this project had been going on for ten years and had troubled Academician Liang and others for a long time. The country had invested hundreds of billions in this project.

Although Academician Liang and others had made other discoveries during the research process, the main project was still stuck there.

"Academician Chen, I have a little bit of insight into your problem—"

Lin Chen answered another academician's question.

After answering two questions, it was past one o'clock.

"Let's do this for now."

Lin Chen muttered to himself.

He returned to the bed and hugged Xu Mengyao. Soon, a trace of his internal force entered Xu Mengyao's body. It would take another ten days or so to unblock Xu Mengyao's meridians.

Lin Chen didn't finish until six o'clock in the morning.

Xu Mengyao hadn't woken up yet, and Lin Chen quickly fell asleep.

At a top research base.

Academician Liang Hang got up. He was relatively old, and he had things on his mind, so he woke up early every day.

"Academician Liang, you have a new email."

Academician Liang's assistant reminded him.

"Okay."

Liang Hang quickly washed up and turned on the computer. He would process his emails every morning and then devote himself to a day of intense work.

"Huh?"

Soon, Liang Hang's eyes revealed a look of surprise.

He saw an email from Lin Chen.

He had sent this email a few days ago and hadn't received a reply. He thought Academician Lin wouldn't know the answer.

"Academician Lin's knowledge is very comprehensive. I wonder if he can help."

Liang Hang thought to himself.

He carefully read the email Lin Chen sent back.

His expression was sometimes confused and sometimes enlightened. Liang Hang was very strong in mathematics, but it was not easy to understand Lin Chen's answer.

Two hours later, Liang Hang's eyes revealed excitement.

He didn't fully understand it, but based on what he had already understood, he felt that Lin Chen's answer should be correct.

"The conclusion given by the world's top mathematicians, something that has become a mathematical formula, is actually wrong."

"This joke is a bit big."

Liang Hang murmured to himself, "In just a few days, Academician Lin actually found such a mistake. Academician Lin's strength is even stronger than I estimated."

"If Academician Lin could come here, maybe we could complete this project in half a year."

Soon, Liang Hang contacted the higher-ups.

"Minister Xu, I have important matters to report."

Liang Hang said.

The person on the other end of the phone was Xu Xiangyang. He said, "Academician Liang, do you have important results so early in the morning?"

Liang Hang said, "Minister Xu, I am applying for Academician Lin to come here. If he is here, our project may be conquered in half a year."

Lin Chen's figure appeared in Xu Xiangyang's mind.

He knew that the Academician Lin that Liang Hang was talking about was Lin Chen. He also knew that Lin Chen's security level had reached SS level.

Academician Liang, who was in charge of core research projects, was only at S level.

"Academician Liang, why are you suddenly mentioning this?"

Xu Xiangyang asked.

Liang Hang's voice was a little excited. "Minister Xu, I consulted Academician Lin, and he found our problem. The roadblock that has troubled us for ten years is gone."

"I believe we can solve the remaining problems."

"But if Academician Lin is here, the speed will be faster."

Xu Xiangyang's spirits were lifted. "Solved? Academician Liang, are you sure your research has made a major breakthrough?"

"Yes."

"Minister Xu, Academician Lin's mathematics is super strong. The mathematical formula we used is wrong. This mathematical formula was demonstrated by top mathematicians—"

Liang Hang said excitedly.

"Stop… Academician Liang, I don't understand this aspect. Many top experts have participated in your project, and they didn't find the problem, but Academician Lin did."

"What is his level of mathematics?"

Xu Xiangyang asked.

Liang Hang replied, "I sent him an email, and he replied in five days. He found the problem so quickly, so his mathematics is one of the best in the world."

Xu Xiangyang thought of a problem.

Lin Chen went out to travel and take wedding photos these few days.

Lin Chen didn't take a laptop with him either.

"Academician Liang, wait a moment."

Xu Xiangyang hung up the phone and quickly started searching.

He was checking the time Lin Chen clicked on the email. People who sent Lin Chen emails in the past could see this, but people who sent emails to Lin Chen with his SS-level identity could not see it.

"It only took two hours from opening the email to replying to it."

Xu Xiangyang murmured to himself.

He dialed Academician Liang's phone and said, "Academician Liang, is it difficult to find the error in that mathematical formula?"

Liang Hang: "That formula has been proven for more than ten years. Many mathematicians have studied and used it for these ten years, and they have not found it to be wrong."

"To be honest, I also suspected it before and asked domestic top mathematicians to verify it, but no problem was found."

"Minister Xu, can you invite Academician Lin over? With his help, our progress here will be much faster."

Xu Xiangyang said helplessly, "Academician Liang, don't even think about it. I don't have the ability to invite him."

"If you have any questions, just email him."

Liang Hang was surprised, even Minister Xu couldn't invite him?

"Minister Xu, even if Academician Lin doesn't come, can I meet him? Some questions can be explained more clearly when we talk face to face."

"This—"

Xu Xiangyang hesitated, "Academician Liang, I can't promise you. I have to ask Academician Lin first."

"Okay."

Liang Hang hung up the phone.

Xu Xiangyang was just about to report the situation when Director Dong called him.

Another academician contacted Director Dong.

Xu Xiangyang was shocked after listening to Director Dong's report. Lin Chen's two emails last night solved two major problems.

Saving the country's funds was secondary.

More importantly, it can allow the country's important projects to develop rapidly.

"Lin Chen, ah, Lin Chen, how much are you still hiding?"

Xu Xiangyang murmured to himself.

In this situation, he felt that Lin Chen's security was not enough.
