An Ethical Scholar

As an ethical scholar, Lu Zhou wasn't a fan of academic monopolies. He believed in an academic environment that was full of freedom.

He liked to find talents that were worth cultivating and devote certain resources to help them grow.

Just like Chen Yang, who he poached from the Yan University mathematics center. It wasn't like he did this out of spite for Academician Wang; it was purely because he saw a promising talent being wasted and abandoned.

Being able to understand the hyperelliptic curve analysis method in such a short amount of time wasn't something that could be done by ordinary scholars. It was a kind of transcendent focus on mathematics.

Being able to focus like this in the chaotic environment of academia was one in a million.

This devotion toward mathematics was something more valuable than talent.

Lu Zhou had a lot to do, so he stopped Professor Wu from thanking him and left the laboratory.
