The Z particle clock had been launched. Up next was the long wait.

Lu Zhou returned to Jin Ling University campus and picked up the teaching job he had ignored for a long time. He began to teach a few undergraduate classes.

When the students heard that God Lu had finally remembered his students, they were all very excited. Even the female students from the economics department and the foreign languages department came over.

Even though Lu Zhou was confused about what his class had to do with economics and foreign languages, he was quite happy to see so many people interested in mathematics. He had a proud smile on his face.

For him, lecturing undergraduates was a pleasant thing.

Not only could he review the simple mathematical principles that he usually didn’t think of, but he could also effectively alleviate the impetuousness and anxiety from waiting for the Z particle clock.

However, on the fifth day of his return to teaching, something strange happened.

A person with a special identity came to his class.

This person was none other than Professor Perelman.

This big Russian man with a beard and messy hair sat in the back row of the classroom. He listened attentively while writing something in his notebook.

Obviously, because his looks was so extreme, almost no one in the classroom recognized his identity; they were all instead shocked by his appearance.

The same was true for Lu Zhou, who was speaking on the podium.

Because this Russian hadn’t shown his face at Jin Ling University for so long, he almost forgot that this guy lived here.

After class.

Just when Lu Zhou was about to chat with him and ask him if he was accustomed to living here, this idiosyncratic person took the initiative to approach him and speak first.

“I have some ideas about the Hodge conjecture.”

Lu Zhou was slightly stunned. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “What do you mean by some ideas?”

“It’s hard to describe, so I want to ask for your opinion.”

Lu Zhou stared at the clock on the wall and said, “Send it to my email. It’s not a good time right now.”

“That’s fine, although I prefer to communicate in person.”

“Aside from mathematics, are you getting used to living here?”

“I am. But some people respect me too much. This makes me very uncomfortable. I wish they would forget who I am…”

Perelman thought for a while and said, “But in general, it’s been pretty good. There are many excellent mathematicians here… For example, Professor Chen Yang. Discussing problems with him is inspiring. This reminds me of the days when I was at the Steklov Institute of Mathematics. I might stay here for another half a year.”

After speaking, he seemed to remember something. He looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “How about you? Are you still researching mathematics?”

Lu Zhou: “I have always been researching. But the focus of research is not on mathematics itself, it’s on how to use mathematics to solve other problems.”

Perelman shook his head. “What a waste.”

Lu Zhou smiled and asked, “Why?”

Perelman: “With your talent in mathematics, you can achieve greater success. You might be able to solve all the remaining Millennium Prize Problems.”

“That…” Lu Zhou thought for a while. He then said with a smile, “It’s better to give a chance for others.”

Perelman raised his eyebrows.

“You practiced that in front of the mirror?”

“Maybe.”

Lu Zhou put away his lesson plan and left Professor Perelman, who was in deep thought. He walked away with a smile.

He went to the cafeteria and ordered a bowl of barbecue meat and rice. He found a low-key place to finish his meal. On the way back to the mathematics building, Lu Zhou took the long way, passing through the studio set.

The casting of the documentary had been completed, and it was now in the shooting stage.

Next to the studio set, Lu Zhou saw Han Mengqi.

For some reason, after seeing him, the girl quickly greeted him before walking away with her head down.

Lu Zhou felt strange but didn’t think about it too much.

He returned to his office and rested for a while. He was about to open his email to see if Professor Perelman had sent the email to himself when he suddenly remembered about his Valentine’s Day gift. He immediately took out the AR glasses from his pocket.

He closed his eyes and thought for a while. When he thought of someone that might be able to help him, he said, “Xiao Ai, help me call Xiao Tong through WeChat.”

Xiao Ai: [Ok, Master. (๑•̀ᄇ•́)و✧]

The projection on the glasses changed.

After a short burst of music, the call quickly connected.

It was morning time at Princeton. Xiao Tong had just gotten up. She yawned and faced her phone with her eyes half-open.

“What’s up, bro, why are you calling me so early?”

Lu Zhou looked at Xiao Tong and asked with a smile, “Sleeping in?”

“Are you crazy? It’s five-thirty in the morning! Who calls this early in the morning!”

Lu Zhou realized that he had woken her up. He laughed embarrassedly and changed the topic.

“If I want to set up a fund, what should I do?”

“Fund?” Xiao Tong sat up from the bed and scratched her messy hair. After pondering for a while, she said, “That… Your girl knows more than me? Why don’t you ask her?”

Chen Yushan was the CEO for one of the top 100 companies in the world. She helped Star Sky Technology withstand pressure from giants such as ExxonMobil and Tesla, as well as the US Department of Commerce. Star Sky Technology was the reason for the rise of China’s national and technological strength. There was a reason she had survived as CEO for so long.

However, Lu Zhou’s reputation was so powerful that she was often overshadowed. Even though the public might doubt her skills, the industry was sure of her abilities.

However, Lu Zhou was focused on something else.

When he heard Xiao Tong’s reply, he blushed and sat up straight in his office chair.

“Ahem! What girl… It’s that obvious?”

Xiao Tong smirked and spoke.

“Don’t underestimate a girl’s intuition! I’m not stupid.”

Xiao Tong suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She slammed her hand on the bed and said, “Oh, oh, I know!”

Lu Zhou was stunned. He asked subconsciously, “Know what?”

Xiao Tong smirked. She had a mischievous smile on her face.

“Big bro, be honest, are you trying to hide money from her? Hehe, I can help with this, but… it’s going to be tough.”

What a stupid guess.

Lu Zhou rolled his eyes and said, “Hide what money, don’t talk nonsense.”

Am I that kind of person?

Why would Chen Yushan want my money?

Xiao Tong stared at her big brother suspiciously for a while. After making sure he wasn’t lying, Xiao Tong muttered, “Then why are you suddenly starting a fund? If it’s just an investment, I think Star Sky Technology has an investment department.”

In addition to patent management, Star Sky Technology’s investment business was also quite famous. The most famous of which was the financing for East Asia Energy and East Asia Communications.

Even though the two companies were not public yet, their valuations were both in the trillions of yuan.

Anyone that invested early in these two companies had basically all made a fortune. Star Sky Technology was an early shareholder, and they invested in both companies.

Lu Zhou thought about Xiao Tong’s question for a long time.

Originally, he didn’t want to tell anyone, but if this plan was implemented, everyone would know anyway. So, after hesitating for a while, he said, “If I tell you, don’t tell anyone.”

Xiao Tong almost jumped out of the bed from the excitement. She nodded while hugging her pillow.

“Don’t worry, Brother! I’m your sister, don’t you trust me?”

As Lu Zhou looked at her gossipy eyes, his eyebrows twitched. In the end, he sighed and said, “Then I’ll tell you… Don’t laugh at me.”

It took about five minutes for Lu Zhou to explain his ideas.

After listening, Xiao Tong was flabbergasted.

After blinking for a while, she slowly recovered from the shock.

“I had no idea…”

“No idea about what?”

“That you’re quite good at… Forget about it. If any boy pursues me like this, even I wouldn’t be able to resist.”

Xiao Tong sighed and shook her head. She said, “Not bad, not bad, Chen Yushan caught a good one this time!”

“Good one your as*! I’m just asking you a question.”

Lu Zhou almost wanted to hit her on the head.

Xiao Tong smirked and pretended like nothing happened. She cleared her throat and said, “The thing you’re talking about is certainly possible! With your reputation, you can go public. It will sell like hotcakes!”

Lu Zhou frowned and said, “Forget about going public, this is mainly for her.”

“That doesn’t change anything… But let’s not talk about this. What you have to know is how to maintain a stable fund!”

Lu Zhou: “How?”

Xiao Tong smiled proudly and sat up straight.

“Of course it’s to have a great manager! As your sister, I’d like to recommend someone that has a PhD in economics from one of the world’s top universities. She was born in a Nobel Prize family, and her family has won a Nobel Prize in Economics—”

Lu Zhou said impatiently, “Cut to the chase.”

“Me!” Xiao Tong’s eyes flashed with excitement. She moved the phone closer to her face and said, “I’m the best at managing money!”
