Chen Yu: “Studying makes me happy. Nobody interrupt me while I'm studying.”
Chen Yu only wanted to be a low-profile top student, happily studying at home every day. But people kept bothering him, and it was driving him crazy.
A while ago, the International Mathematical Union said it wanted to award him the Fields Medal and invited him to give a one-hour presentation at the International Congress of Mathematicians.
Some time later, the Clay Mathematics Institute said it wanted to give him several million dollars in prize money and asked him to come collect it.
A while after that, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences wanted to award him the Nobel Prize...
So Chen Yu's response to all these things was: “Mail me the medals, transfer the prize money, and I don't have time for anything else.”
