The Math Prodigy's Fundamental Principles

This series tells the story of the mathematical genius Lin Zhaosheng, his daughter Lin Zhaoxi, and the highly intelligent young Pei Zhi as they search for themselves through mathematical reasoning and interactions between two timelines. After graduating with a degree in philosophy, Lin Zhaoxi finds that life is not going well. A seed of mathematical talent lies within her, but having spent so long looking up to her father, Lao Lin, and her first love, Pei Zhi, both mathematical geniuses, she lacks confidence in herself. It is only after two journeys through parallel timelines that she unleashes a strength beyond her imagination. On her first trip to a parallel timeline, she is only twelve years old. With Lao Lin’s help, she spends a summer giving her all at an Olympic math summer camp, regains her confidence in mathematics, and decides to take control of her life. On her second trip, Lin Zhaoxi and Pei Zhi return together to their senior year of high school. As they fight side by side, Lin Zhaoxi finds the courage to face life head-on. Back in the real world, Lin Zhaoxi prepares for the mathematics graduate school entrance exam while entering a modeling competition to win prize money and help support her family. To help Lao Lin recover from Alzheimer’s disease, Lin Zhaoxi joins forces with Pei Zhi to advance research into the P=NP problem, together scaling the heights of mathematics. At this point in the story, Zhaoxi closes the book. It turns out this whole adventure was a story written by Zhaoxi the novelist.
