"Yangyang, when you get to the United States, don't hang out with those random people. Your dad and I still have some savings, so you don't have to worry about tuition and living expenses. We have worked hard all our lives, but we just want you to stay in the United States after graduation and pick us up.

Enjoy the past!" On the Boeing 747 flight from Beijing to New York, a middle-aged woman said earnestly to the little girl next to her. The little girl responded from time to time, seemingly not taking her mother's words into consideration.

heart.

The direct flight from Beijing to New York takes more than ten hours. Now that we have just boarded the plane, it is still early enough to go to bed. Many people are looking around idly. In 2002, studying abroad was not an easy task.

, the middle-aged woman's words quickly attracted the attention of the middle-aged man sitting across the aisle. He asked in admiration, "This little girl is so amazing! She went to study in the United States at a young age, but she is so unsatisfactory compared to me.

The boy is much stronger!"

"Oh, look what you said." A flower bloomed on the middle-aged woman's face immediately. At her age, life is all about saving face. What could make her happier than her children being praised?

What? She turned around and stroked the child's hair lovingly, "But my Yangyang has not had to worry about us since she was a child. She applied for it herself this time!"

"The little girl is very quiet. She looks like a sensible child at first glance. Do you know which university to go to in the United States?" The conversation between the two has attracted the attention of several rows of passengers in front and behind. The middle-aged man quickly asked everyone's concern.

topic.

"State University of New York!", the middle-aged woman's voice became a little louder, and she once again received the envious eyes of many people. After speaking, she became modest and proud, "The school is not very good, it is still worse than Harvard!

"

"New York is a big city! A university named after New York must be amazing!" The middle-aged man consciously brought the naming rules of Chinese universities to the United States. "The status of New York University in the United States is not the same as that of Beijing Normal University in China.

Almost!"

"Sometimes things in foreign countries are different from those in China, but I heard that New York University's ranking in the United States is relatively high!" The middle-aged woman glanced at Lu Qiujian in the seat next to her from the corner of her eyes. If he

It would be great if you could give yourself the seat next to the aisle. The journey is boring, so I just want to show off to the person opposite.

Lu Qiujian was holding a copy of the original English version of "The Scattering Theory of Automorphic Functions" and was reading it with gusto, not noticing the middle-aged woman's gaze at all.

"The State University of New York ranks well in the United States." The passengers in the front row also participated in their discussion, "Especially Buffalo, Stony Brook, Binghamton and Albany are the strongest.

A world-class university!”

This is like someone giving you a pillow when you are dozing off. There is nothing happier than meeting someone who knows something when you want to flatter her. The middle-aged woman immediately unfastened her seat belt and stood up and said, "Yes, yes, my daughter

It's at the Albany branch! What's your job? You know so much!" After speaking, he glanced at Lu Qiujian again.

"I'm a reporter from the Education News, and I'm on a business trip to New York this time!" He smiled and went on to popularize the strength of the State University of New York at Albany. "The Albany campus is also ranked among the top 100 in the United States, with many majors

They are all top in the United States! The School of Nanotechnology and Engineering is number one in the world, and the School of Business is one of the most comprehensive business schools in the northeastern United States..."

The strongest overall strength made the middle-aged woman's face shine even brighter. She automatically ignored the words "Northeast and One" and nodded repeatedly, "This is the business school my daughter wants to study!", and then glanced for the third time.

Lu Qiujian wondered why the young people nowadays were so ignorant, and wondered whether he should talk to him.

"Why did this little brother go to the United States?" The reporter followed the aunt's gaze and saw the book in Lu Qiujian's hand. The all-English cover and the heavy design of an academic book aroused his curiosity.

Heart.

"Oh, I also went to the United States to study!" Lu Qiujian closed the book and replied calmly.

"Hey, you're going to study in the United States too! Which university is it?" The little girl named Yangyang poked her head out from behind her mother and looked at Lu Qiujian curiously. She saw that he was thin and elegant.

She looks like she is about the same height as her mother when she is sitting, probably over 1.85 meters tall.

"Oh, Princeton! It's not far from New York." Lu Qiujian smiled politely at the little girl.

"Ah! Princeton!" When Lu Qiujian announced her name, the little girl screamed, just like the Kazakh people who had seen the long-legged oppa with starry eyes.

"Is this school very good?" Her mother looked at her strangely, "In which city is it?"

"In a small town between New York and Philadelphia!" Yangyang hurriedly answered her mother's question, then immediately turned her attention to Lu Qiujian, "How did you apply? What major did you study?"

"It turns out it's a country school!", her mother muttered in a moderate voice. In her concept, powerful universities can only exist in big cities, such as Shuimu University and Jingshi University in the Imperial Capital, and the Incubator in the Magic City.

Egg University, Jiaotong University, the schools that were driven to small towns are probably similar to XX Vocational and Technical College and the like!

"I was recommended by the school to be an exchange student in the Department of Mathematics at Princeton." Lu Qiujian seemed to have not heard the middle-aged woman's words and secretly sighed in his heart. He had spent a lot of effort in the past few months for this spot.

"Haha, Princeton is not a country school. This school has been ranked among the top ten in the world for a long time. Last year and this year, it beat Harvard and ranked first in the United States!" The reporter's words quickly shattered the middle-aged woman's pride.

"Especially the mathematics department, which has been ranked first in the world for several consecutive years!"

The middle-aged woman opened her mouth and was speechless. After all, she could understand the difference between the top 100 and the first in the United States. In China, it is the difference between the Normal University in their province and the Capital University. But she has been tested by office quarrels for a long time.

She would not give in easily, and quickly found a new direction of attack, "Huh, what can you do after studying mathematics? My daughter majored in finance, and she will go to Wall Street to make a lot of money in the future!"

"Mom!", the little girl was so embarrassed that she could hardly hold her head up. Whether it was Merrill Lynch or Morgan Stanley, which big company would reject a graduate from the Princeton Department of Mathematics? She would be able to find a job in a small company after graduation.

Internship positions are highly sought after.

"You can't say that! Many of the most powerful fund managers on Wall Street now graduated from the Department of Mathematics!" Comrade the reporter once again showed his extensive knowledge, "I know a man named Li Yanxiu. He graduated from the Department of Mathematics at the University of Science and Technology of China in 1987.

After graduating, he quickly used his mathematical talents to create a unique investment analysis method after coming to Wall Street, allowing his company to earn hundreds of millions of dollars in net profits every year. I heard that his annual dividends are in the tens of millions of dollars.

Work unit."
