Kapitel 1017: Famous Teacher, Famous Student

Vera Pulyuy!

The winner was only 26 years old!

Even though this didn't break Professor Lu's record, 26 years old was still extremely young.

What surprised people wasn't just her age, but also her gender.

Prior to this, the only female mathematician to have won a Fields Medal was Maryam Mirzakhani from Stanford University. Unfortunately, the year after she won her award, in 2017, she died from breast cancer.

Therefore, Vera would become the world's only living female Fields Medalist.

"The Fields Medalists are getting younger and younger, first Schultz, then Professor Lu, then Vera Pulyuy…"

Xu Chengyang looked at the beautiful young figure on stage and said, "When I see these young people pop up one by one, I feel so old."

His last chance at winning a Fields Medal was four years ago.

And just like he had expected, he lost.
