In this internet era, nothing was private.
Within two days, the news was blown all over the country.
[Shock! The person who found the high-energy particle was actually him?]
[Lu Zhou: I'm actually a physicist.]
[He threw a high energy particle physics bomb at the standard model building!]
[…]
However, Lu Zhou was still on the flight back home. His phone was turned off, and he was sleeping in his seat. He did not know that he was trending again.
Actually, even if he knew, he would not think much of it.
After all, this was nothing compared to a potential Nobel Prize.
Even if CERN found something interesting at the 750 GeV energy zone, Lu Zhou might not even win a prize. Therefore, he never imagined himself winning anything from this.
As for why?
This was part of the rules for the Nobel Prize.
