  Not even three minutes after the tweet went out, the comments section was overrun.

  [No...... Nobel Prize?!]

  [Crafoord Prize! Awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, it is mainly awarded to subjects not covered by the Nobel Prize ......]

  [This show off is so tough, it kind of caught me off guard. I was doing my homework and my emotions were not fluctuating, and I even wanted to cry a little bit.]]

  [Bro! Still helping to revise thesis?]

  [The one who said Orion didn't show off last night, get out...]

  [The saddest thing in the world is when you've already made your move, and I'm still in the dark.]

  Looking at the fans' comments, Orion smiled. As expected, sharing joy with others is a happy thing, so he thinks his fans will be happy too.

  Satisfied, Orion placed his mobile phone on the bedside table, buried his head in the pillow, and fell into sleep.

  The following morning, at the entrance of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, as early as two hours before the start of the presentation, there was already a long queue for admission, and as the doors of the auditorium opened, the thousand-person scale auditorium was actually full in less than ten minutes.

  As the "opening speech" of the Crafoord Prize Conference, Orion, dressed in formal attire, walked onto the podium and gave a one-hour presentation on the topic of "Goldbach's Conjecture and the Group Constructor Method".

  The content of the presentation was largely similar to what he had taught at Princeton, the only difference being that the number of audience members had broken through to a new level.

  In any case, the Princeton Institute for Advanced Study's Lecture Hall 1 could not hold a thousand people at once.

  And now, Orion only took a cursory glance at the venue, and knew that there were far more than a thousand people sitting here, as there were still quite a few people standing in the last row.

  Clearing his throat, he righted the microphone, responding to the countless pairs of expectant and attentive eyes on the stage, and spoke.

  "I will try to be as concise as possible, leaving more time for the question session."

  "Regarding Goldbach's Conjecture, I'll start with the theory of the group construction method ......"

  ......

  In the reports and discussions among the scholars, the three-day conference came to an end, and the last part of the "celebration ceremony" of the Crafoord Prize also came to an end with the closing ceremony of the conference.

  In addition to his own presentation and the two maths presentations he heard, he even went to two astronomy and astrophysics presentations.

  As far as astronomy was concerned, Orion was completely out of his depth, and could at best understand things involving theoretical physics.

  However, Professor Roger Blandford, the winner of the Astronomy Prize, seemed to know that his field of study was relatively unknown, so he used easy-to-understand popular science language to explain his research, and the whole lecture was quite interesting to listen to.

  As for the rest of the time, Orion spent most of his time wandering around the tourist spots in Stockholm.

  In the past six months, he had hardly had any rest, and it would be a pity if he didn't make use of his rare relaxing holiday.
