Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

[Do you guys know how hard Wu Yan works? Do you understand him?]

[Let’s think about it. Why would a 25-year-old mathematics PhD steal someone else’s academic achievements? In public? What, only one person can solve proofs?]

[What does a conference record even do? Hilarious, some white guy signs it, and it becomes evidence? I’ve never been to Princeton, but I did watch the video from beginning to end. It looks completely different than the show!]

[Youngest presenter, only a $10,000 USD prize. So little.]

[Wu fans, hold on! Justice will win!]

When Lu Zhou saw the comments on Weibo, he felt a million emotions.

If he was just a no-name person…

If he was just an ordinary university student…

If he had not received evidence from the academic conference…

If those things were true, then even fewer people would believe him.

He thought about the 2014 academic scandal, the “Academic Goddess” Xiao Baofang incident. A Nobel prize level fraud, which ended in the supervisor’s suicide.

Fortunately, Lu Zhou was not alone in this fight.

So much so that he did not even have to fight himself.

When Lu Zhou saw the comments on his Weibo post, he was not angry at all.

In fact…

He wanted to laugh.

“Who cares about these blind haters.”

Lu Zhou kept reading the comments. When he saw a few people supporting him, he liked their comments.

He did not care about those “Wu stans”. Instead, he called Luo Wenxuan who was in Princeton.

The timing of the conference record was perfect.

He had to thank him.

The news that Director Zhang talked about was from Everyone Daily.

This time, Everyone Daily published an article about the trending topic.

[Entertainment shows should have basic morals.]

The article used harsh language to criticize the Strongest Genius Student TV show. It said that the show was fooling the audience, and breaking the law.

As soon as the article came out, all of the other major media outlets re-posted the article, which sent it on trending.

The comment section of Everyone Daily blew up.

[F*ck me, I really thought that Wu Yan proved the conjecture. Are all celebrities like this?]

[What a douchebag.]

[Why do people even like this guy? He’s just a PhD student. There are millions of PhD students!]

[I can’t believe it, Wu Yan fooled us.]

[Is he going to get in trouble for this?]

[I hope he does! (fist) (fist)]

[I’m curious about Lu Zhou. He was on Huaguo Youth Daily last time, and now, he’s on Everyone Daily. He’s quite influential…]

[…]

With the Everyone Daily article, those who were still skeptical about the whole incident changed their mind.

No matter how hard the Wu fans tried to argue, they had no chance against the giant media article.

Fewer and fewer people were on Wu Yan’s side.

When people went to find Wu Yan’s Weibo account, they were surprised to see the account banned.

Before Wu Yan was banned, he posted one last time.

[I, Wu Yan, would never plagiarize. I have five million fans, do I really need to plagiarize? I was only inspired. You guys are accusing a scientist…]

Even now, he would not admit his mistakes.

His desire to survive was strong.

Unfortunately, his desire to survive was used in the wrong place.

No one sympathized him.

As a young adult, he had to pay for his wrongdoing.

After the incident, the discussion quickly heated up amongst major universities.

Almost all of the major media were reporting on this incident.

At the campus of the University of Yan, a guy and a girl were walking side by side to the library when suddenly, a reporter chased them from behind.

“Hello, please wait… Are you Wei Wen?”

Wei Wen stopped walking and looked at the reporter.

“Yeah, why?”

“Here’s the thing. Our TV station is doing a campus interview program. What do you think about the recent dispute between Lu Zhou and Wu Yan on Weibo?”

Wei Wen pushed his glasses and said, “You want to ask what I think?”

The reporter smiled and said, “Let’s talk about Lu Zhou first. I heard you met him in a national competition. What do you think about him?”

Wei Wen thought for a moment before he answered, “A respectable opponent.”

In reality, Lu Zhou was so far ahead of Wei Wen that he could not even call him an opponent.

Of course, Wei Wen obviously could not say that.

In his dictionary, there was no such thing as giving up.

He was about to leave.

“Wait a second.”

Wei Wen turned around and looked at the reporter.

“Anything else?”

The reporter asked, “What about Wu Yan? You’ve won the gold medal in the IMO International Olympic Mathematical Competition. Do you think Wu Yan is a respectable opponent?”

Wei Wen frowned and said, “Wu Yan? He’s weak.”

The reporter was stunned.

Wei Wen walked away from the reporter.

“Cui Jing, let’s go.”

“Okay.”

The girl name Cui Jing nodded and walked next to him.

The reporter was left behind.
