First of all, the explanation.
As for the plot, Qiao Ze has already entered college, which is a cause for celebration. After entering college, apart from studying, there's another important task—that is to publish papers.
I'd like to report in advance to all my dear reader lords, although Buding is inexperienced, I am familiar with the various review rules and times for mathematics papers, especially the higher the level of problem-solving, the longer it takes.
Six months to a year is the basic drill; it's not unusual for a long review to take several years.
However, if this part was written completely in line with reality, there would be an issue with the coherence of the story.
For example, if the protagonist submits a paper that normally requires a year to review.
Then there are two choices for the span of this year. First, write other subplots and daily life that develop naturally. There are so many impressive results that by the time you see them again, you might not remember them at all, and the continuity of the plot would be completely broken...
Second, directly jump to one year later. But this is also troublesome because every character in this book has their story, and if written this way, all conceived subplots would be completely lost...
So, I ask readers who pursue rationality to imagine that the reviewers in the universe of this book are those who particularly love reviewing papers, the kind of reviewing machines that would light a candle at 3 a.m. and use supercomputing to verify a paper.
Or you could also imagine that Qiao's ideas are so clear and well-structured that they greatly accelerate the review process.
The above is to ensure the continuity of the story in this book.
Next is the thank you.
