Who Is This Young Man?

President Hawking opened the email and saw a very eye-catching title. The first thing he did was to check who had sent him the email.

It didn't take long. He could see the sender on the top left corner of the email interface.

"It's a video sent by Angie. For her to send it to me at this time, the contents of the video should be very important."

As Hawking opened the video, he wondered if it had something to do with the sudden appearance of the alien starship.

It was inevitable he would think that. After all, the sudden appearance of the alien starship in outer space had been tormenting the Academy of Sciences that Hawking was in charge of.

It was mainly due to the pressure from the authorities. The President of the Stets and the Parliament would ask the Academy of Sciences about the progress of the exploration of the alien starship several times a day.

As for the public, they only wanted to see human probes appear in outer space to carry out effective exploration of the starship that had suddenly visited Earth.

Hawking opened the video in his mailbox. A handsome young man appeared on the screen whom he didn't recognize. Hawking obviously did not know George.

However, this did not affect him revealing a shocked expression when he saw the young scholar solve a problem quickly.

"Isn't this the problem listed by the Academy of Sciences? Who is this person who solved the problem? How can he be so young?"

Hawking watched as George solved the problem on the blackboard. As the President of the Academy of Sciences, he could quickly determine that the other party's thinking in solving the problem was very unique. It was a method that had never appeared before.

This successfully attracted the attention of President Hawking.

"This problem is not so easy to solve. Several professors of our Academy of Sciences have no idea what to do with this problem. It's a good thing that this young man has used a different method to solve the problem, but the result may not be what we want."

Although Hawking did not quite believe that the young man in the video could really solve the problem, his eyes did not leave the screen as he said this.

In his heart, of course, he hoped that someone could solve this problem.

This was because it was closely related to a great opportunity for the country. If they couldn't send out a probe to get into contact with the alien starship at the best time, then other countries would definitely go ahead and investigate the alien starship.

The countries that had the power to enter outer space knew very well that if this alien starship that had suddenly appeared were to invade Earth, no matter how much humanity resisted, the result would probably simply be tragic.

Just from looking at the starship that was controlled by an alien civilization, one could understand that the alien civilization's technology was far superior to that of the human's.

Therefore, the most urgent thing now was to fight to be the first country to come into contact with the alien starship.

This was equivalent to being in a huge gamble. If they succeeded, they would be able to absorb the alien civilization's advanced technology faster than other countries.

At this moment, the video was still playing. George was about to use the first method to solve the problem.

Hawking, who had been watching the video, grew even more shocked as George's hands continued to move in front of the blackboard.

"Ha, this young man has calculated the final result?"

Because the time Geroge took was very short, which meant that he was solving the problem very quickly, this caused Hawking to be unable to keep up with George's speed of solving the problem.

One had to know that in the process of calculating a formula, even the bystanders had to follow the steps of the solver's calculation in their minds to determine whether the problem was really solved or not.

Moreover, what Hawking saw was only a video. If he had been in the meeting room at the time, he might have already been able to determine if George's calculations were correct.

After all, the professors who were present at the time could only judge whether George's solution result was correct after he began using a second method to solve the problem.

When President Hawking saw that the young man in the video had calculated a result, he habitually controlled the mouse to replay it but was surprised to find something unexpected.

"That's not right. I thought the video had reached the end. Why is there still such a long progress bar?"

Seeing that more than half of the video had not finished playing, President Hawking realized that things were not as simple as he had thought.

Soon, after Hawking sped up the video, he saw a shocking scene.

George was using a second method to solve the problem in the video.

"Oh my God, to think he's trying to use a second method to solve the problem! Who Is this young man? Why have I never heard of him before?"

Hawking frankly dragged the progress bar to the end of the video. He had originally thought that he would be able to find the answer to who the young man was at the end of the video.

What he didn't expect was that in the second half of the video, a very familiar scene was playing. It was filled with a very serious sense of ritual.

Although President Hawking didn't graduate from Yale University, he knew of the ritual that was widely spread at Yale University. It was a tribute to the scholars who had achieved extraordinary achievements.

When he saw several very influential professors in the video expressing their respect to the young man who had solved the problem, he knew that the young man's results didn't need to be verified anymore.

Those professors were not fools. On the contrary, they had made extraordinary achievements in their respective fields of study, so for the professors to recognize and respect the young man, his results would be very reliable.

After Professor Hawking finished watching the video, he was no longer sleepy. He just wanted to meet the young man immediately.

"Right, I should contact Angie now and ask her to do this!"

At the same time, Angie, who was wearing her glasses, was about to leave the office and rush home.

Just as she was about to close the door, the phone in the room rang. It was President Hawking's private line, and only he could call her on the line.

Angie gave up on the idea of leaving and could only return to the office.

She walked to the phone and picked up the receiver. Judging from the familiar voice that came from the receiver, it was indeed President Hawking.

"President Hawking!"

"It's me. Angie, I'm very sorry to call you so late, but the matter is urgent. I'd like to ask you to do something now!"

When Angie heard President Hawking's words, she had a vague idea of what the mission would be about. She guessed that it had something to do with the video she had sent to President Hawking.

In less than a minute, the call with President Hawking ended.

Angie glanced at the time on her watch while she pouted.

"It's almost 11 pm. Is it really okay to call Professor Eugene at this time?"

Although she was somewhat unwilling, President Hawking's request had to be completed as soon as possible.

It was just as well that Angie didn't put down the phone in her hand. She directly called the Academy of Sciences' switchboard duty room and asked the other party to immediately connect her to Professor Eugene.

Professor Eugene was in an office of the research institute at the moment, discussing with George about launching a probe to come into contact with the alien starship.
