Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 599 - 598: Fully Packed

His words gained the recognition of the people of Zhou Country, and many scientists believed that Jiang Cheng was correct.

Humanity must develop into space to drive the progress of civilization.

The resources on Earth are limited and cannot sustain human civilization to a high level, so space exploration is also an inevitable task.

Jiang Cheng was still very happy to get the approval of these scientists. He attended this event for this purpose; to get more people to agree with his plan to explore the universe.

The welcome cocktail party specially held for Jiang Cheng ended in a joyful atmosphere.

At this cocktail party, many top European scholars finally met the legendary Jiang Cheng.

This meeting left a deep impression on everyone; in the eyes of these scientists, Jiang Cheng was not only young and handsome but also possessed outstanding research capabilities.

He spoke with wit and humor, often able to stir up the atmosphere on site.

What left the deepest impression on these scientists was Jiang Cheng's statements about the future development of humanity.

Regarding Jiang Cheng's pursuit of cosmic development, many scientists strongly agreed with his views.

In fact, many of them had similar ideas before; they just didn't have the means to realize their ideas.

To become a top scientist, no one can afford to be narrow-minded.

They are all very aware of the kinds of problems humanity will face in the future. The resources on Earth are limited and cannot be used arbitrarily.

But the resources in the universe are endless. As long as humans have the ability to mine them, they can possess a total amount of resources far exceeding that of Earth.

Let's not talk about those stellar systems far from Earth, as humanity does not yet have the capability for long-distance space travel.

But the planets within the solar system are visible and tangible to humans.

Take Mars, for instance, which is very close to Earth; there are many resources on it that humans can use.

If humans can firmly establish themselves on Mars, they will not have to worry about the issue of resources for the time being.

So, the space exploration plan is imperative; one day, the resources on Earth will be exhausted, and it will be too late to venture out into the universe by then.

Humans must start stepping into space as soon as possible so as not to be confined to the tiny Earth.

Although they all understand the problems humanity currently faces, how difficult is it to execute a space program?

Such a plan cannot be conducted by an individual or an organization alone; even ordinary nations lack the ability to explore space independently.

Only someone like Jiang Cheng, with extraordinary capabilities, has the technology and capital to independently execute a space exploration plan.

Now that Jiang Cheng is leading the universe exploration plan, all these people have thoughts of joining the plan.

Some scientists even plan to persuade their governments to join Jiang Cheng's space plan when they return home.

However, these matters will happen later. Joining Jiang Cheng's plan is not a simple task.

There are many problems that need to be solved, which cannot be clarified in a short time.

Besides, Jiang Cheng's Mars development plan has just begun, and even the first Mars probe has not yet reached Mars.

It is too early to consider including others in this plan; at least Jiang Cheng should successfully land on Mars before beginning to bring other forces into the plan.

The International Mathematician's Congress continued in this manner, with the second day resembling the first without major differences.

Only, there were no more outstanding academic reports thereafter, but this is very normal.

A report as exhilarating as the one presented by Jiang Cheng may not appear even once in many years; such a situation now is the norm.

After a rather plain second day, the International Mathematician's Congress finally reached its most eye-catching final day.

Because on this day, the highest honor in mathematics, the Fields Medal, was to be awarded, and this time the recipient was Jiang Cheng.

This garnered even more attention towards this congress; wherever Jiang Cheng is, it never fails to attract immense attention. Anything related to Jiang Cheng tends to interest many.

The final session of the congress, the awarding of the Fields Medal to Jiang Cheng, was set for the afternoon of the third day.

The award ceremony was arranged to be held in the auditorium of the Ecole Normale Superieure de Paris, which could accommodate thousands, yet today it was packed to the brim.

Countless media outlets and some citizens of Paris came to attend the award ceremony held for Jiang Cheng.

This kind of situation was unprecedented; the originally prepared seats were somewhat insufficient.

Many people were waiting outside the auditorium, hoping that some seats inside might free up.

The sudden influx of people caught the congress organizers off guard; they had never encountered such a situation before.

They had to temporarily increase the number of seats to accommodate everyone attending the ceremony.

Previously, if the Fields Medal award ceremony had a few hundred people attending, it would have been quite impressive.

Moreover, those who attended were all from the mathematics community; outsiders rarely paid attention to this event.

After all, this award pertains exclusively to mathematics, and external interest is generally low.

At most, a few science-related media outlets would come to interview, reporting a bit on some unimportant section of their pages.

General citizens wouldn't focus on this award intentionally; usually, they would forget about it after briefly learning from the news.

Such a situation has never occurred before: dozens of media outlets, all top-tier globally, attended.

Only a unique scientist like Jiang Cheng could attract so many media outlets.

The level of attention exceeded even that of the Nobel Prize, making the congress organizers both worried and delighted.

Gaining such high attention is also a good thing for the Fields Medal.

If an award goes unnoticed, what meaning does it hold?

The Fields Medal's award ceremony began amidst widespread attention.

Many media outlets carried out live broadcasts, transmitting the auditorium scenes worldwide.

Many viewers sat in front of their TVs timely, eager to witness Jiang Cheng receiving the award.

In the auditorium of the Ecole Normale Superieure de Paris, the Fields Medal award ceremony officially began.

Firstly, a host stepped onto the stage to officiate this award ceremony.

Upon walking to the center of the stage, the host briefly paused to calm his emotions before commencing the proceedings.
