Chapter 205: Geniuses are all Strange _2

Zhao Yi was primarily focused on Terence Tao.

Terence Tao was a Chinese mathematician, who had a greater reputation than the other three award-winners combined.

Terence Tao was a true genius. At the age of thirteen, he won gold in the International Olympic Mathematics Competition. He earned his bachelor's degree from Flinders University at sixteen, and completed his master's degree at the same university at seventeen. By twenty-one, he had his Ph.D. from Princeton University, and from the age of twenty-four, he served as a professor at the University of California, Los Angeles.

This year was filled with accolades for Terence Tao. He had already received the Nevanlinna Prize and MacArthur Fellowship, and now, at this mathematics conference, he had won the most prestigious prize in the field of mathematics - the Fields Medal - for his research achievements in number theory, harmonic analysis, and combinatorics.

His track record was truly astounding.
