Chapter 33
But yesterday, public opinion online had all been in Jiang Ye's favor.
Even if he had wanted to write it, he would not have dared risk widespread condemnation by publishing it.
That was until a representative of the DuPont Consortium came to him.
Tempted by both money and a green card, Chen Haoyu finally decided to write and publish the article.
As for what happened afterward, even he had not expected it.
Not only had it caused a tremendous sensation, it had also reversed the prevailing online opinion from the day before in one fell swoop.
"I don't know who planned this, but it's riddled with holes. Even if they wanted to put on a show, they shouldn't have made it this over-the-top."
Muttering to himself, he picked up his phone as it began to ring and answered it.
"Mr. Charlie, what did you think of my performance?" Chen Haoyu asked, smiling broadly as he gestured to his girlfriend, who had heard the commotion and come over behind him.
"Excellent. I've already transferred the money to your Swiss bank account, ten million US dollars in total."
When Chen Haoyu heard it was ten million dollars, his breathing stopped for a moment.
They had only agreed on five million yesterday. How come...
He quickly caught on, his smile growing even broader. "Mr. Charlie, thank you very much!"
"You earned it. By the way, I need you to stoke the fire some more and firmly establish your argument."
"Don't worry, Mr. Charlie. I'll take care of it right away. By the way, about the green cards..."
"Once the Jiang Ye matter is over, I'll arrange for someone to bring you both over immediately."
Just then, there was a sudden knock at the door.
Chen Haoyu's girlfriend, the girl with short brown hair, went to answer it without giving it much thought.
A few seconds later, a group of people in military uniform stormed in.
At their head was Zhang Puze.
Zhang Puze came up to Chen Haoyu, his face full of killing intent, and first held up a form of identification for him to see.
Chen Haoyu froze. Then his pupils involuntarily contracted, horror gripped his heart, and beads of cold sweat as large as beans broke out on his face.
"Hello, are you still there? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Chen Haoyu held the phone, his face pale. Zhang Puze snatched it from his hand.
"Which consortium are you from?" His calm voice was filled with killing intent that reached the other end of the line.
Charlie could not help shuddering, but he reacted quickly and asked in surprise, "The Dragon Country authorities?"
"You were pretty quick. That really surprised me." His tone was slightly jaunty. "But it doesn't matter how fast you were. The situation has already been set in motion, and I've achieved my goal."
"Mm, you also saved me a great deal of money. Thanks!"
"Oh, and I must give special thanks to Mr. Chen Haoyu. The argument he put forward prompted us to conduct an internal investigation, and we actually caught a mole."
"Can you guess where that mole is now?"
Zhang Puze said nothing, but his right hand gripped the phone harder and harder until he crushed it completely.
Needless to say, a comrade on the hidden front had sacrificed his life!
Zhang Puze grabbed Chen Haoyu by the cuff and stared him straight in the eyes. "Treason is enough to earn you several peanuts."
His words, brimming with killing intent, made Chen Haoyu feel a piercing cold that reached his very marrow, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"Take them all away!"

Chapter 33: The Technological Revolution Will Come Again (Humbly Begging for All Kinds of Support)
"Old leader, the key figure has been caught."
"As for the other influencers who stirred up public opinion, I plan to wait until Jiang Ye finishes solving the hypothesis before making the arrests. By then, not one of them will escape."
"After all, if we take action and punish them now, it will only stir up public opinion even more and fail to convince people."
"Now it all depends on whether Jiang Ye can solve the Seven Millennium Prize Problems. I hope he can, so we can reverse the current state of public opinion in one fell swoop."
After bringing Chen Haoyu back, Zhang Puze immediately called the old leader.
If it had been an ordinary matter, there would have been no need to report every detail like this.
The truth was that the impact of the current online public opinion was far too damaging and severe.
Even Zhang Puze's six-year-old daughter had said, "Daddy, the uncle on the screen is a bad man!"
The elderly man in a Zhongshan suit on the other end of the line pondered for a moment before speaking. "Your idea is sound. I also asked Elder Wang and Elder Yang, and they said Jiang Ye has an extraordinary talent for learning."
"It's not impossible that he could solve them. However, we can't let public opinion continue to ferment. Have someone step in and curb it."
"Yes, old leader!"
In the first feed.
Jiang Ye was still writing.
Compared with before, his lonely figure was now imprinted on the eyes of only a small number of people.
Those few were mathematicians from all over the world.
At that moment, Jiang Ye was working on the world-famous Riemann Hypothesis.
This had sparked widespread discussion among many mathematicians and young scholars.
"He's writing too fast. It's hard to believe he's solving the seven hypotheses at all. But the problem is, no one has found fault with what he's written so far."
"Yes. My teacher and my classmate's teacher both said they haven't spotted a problem yet. It looks like he might be able to solve it, but he's writing so fast, even faster than someone copying it out. It's incredible."
"No wonder most people agree with the views circulating outside. Unfortunately, the math experts are all absorbed in Jiang Ye's equations and haven't spoken up. Otherwise, they could have turned some of the public opinion around."
"Quick, look at the feed on the left! That tiger is about to reach the area near Jiang Ye's university."
"Let's go tell the professors!"
