I Use Mathematical Formulas to Change the World

Reborn, Lin Mo bound himself to the Truth-Deriving System, never imagining that formulas could do more than calculate fate: they could create technology. He used Bayes’ theorem to predict the ups and downs of the stock market, rebuilt chip architecture with topology, and derived genetic sequences using partial differential equations. The tech tycoons scoffed, “That’s just armchair theorizing.” Then they watched a single line of equations crack their company’s secrets wide open. Late one night, a cool and aloof mathematics professor knocked on his door. “That equation... could you teach it to me?” His haughty heiress rival slapped a contract down in front of him. “I’ll invest, but first explain how you used the Fourier transform to predict three generations of my family’s business decisions!” When a national security agent appeared with a top-secret file, Lin Mo smiled. He had just used the Riemann hypothesis to map out the complete course of the next generation of strategic technologies for his country. And all of this was merely a corner of the scratch paper on which he was writing the universe’s ultimate answer.
