Lin Fan looked at the caller ID and realized that it was an unfamiliar number from overseas.
If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely choose to hang up when they saw this kind of unfamiliar number.
This was because most of the calls were scams.
However, Lin Fan had acquired too many foreign assets, such as LV, Volkswagen, Shangri-La, Gucci, and other companies.
He often received similar calls from foreign strangers.
This time, he thought it was another call from the chairman of some company.
Therefore, he pressed the answer button.
“Hello, are you Professor Lin Fan?” Fluent English came from the other end of the phone.
Lin Fan said in Chinese, “It’s me. Who are you?”
The voice on the phone paused for a moment.
Then, the person stuttered in Chinese.
“P-Professor Lin, hello…
“I’m Gordochev, the president of the Nobel Committee for chemistry. After our committee’s discussion and voting, I’m informing you that you’ve won this year’s Nobel Prize in chemistry…”
Nobel Prize in chemistry!
If an ordinary person heard this news, they would definitely shout and be overjoyed. They would not be able to control themselves at all.
However, Lin Fan only replied calmly, “Oh.”
Oh?
Nothing else?
The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned.
After a long while, he continued, “I’d like to congratulate you… Well, goodbye, Mr. Lin.”
“Goodbye.” After Lin Fan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
“Professor Lin, is it the media again?” Hao Zhiwu could not help but ask.”
In the past few days, there were many media outlets that wanted to interview Lin Fan.
Without exception, Lin Fan chose to reject all of them.
All this while, Lin Fan had never wanted to expose himself.
Once exposed, it would completely destroy his leisurely life.
He did not want to disguise himself no matter where he went to prevent a group of people from suddenly running out and claiming to be his fans. They would take photos of him crazily with their phones.
In addition, the interviews… were troublesome.
Lin Fan shook his head and said, “It’s not the media. The president of the Nobel Committee for chemistry called to tell me that I won this year’s Nobel Prize in chemistry.”
Lin Fan’s tone was very calm.
It was as if he was saying that someone was asking him if he had eaten.
However, it was like thunder in the ears of everyone in the office.
What did they hear?
The president of the Nobel Committee for chemistry called to inform Lin Fan that he had won this year’s Nobel Prize in chemistry!
Although they had seen many people discussing on the internet that Lin Fan would win this year’s Nobel Prize…
And they also felt that Lin Fan could win the Nobel Prize…
They were just…
After all, it was not the truth.
In addition, Lin Fan was too young, and the time he took to achieve those achievements was too short.
If Lin Fan did not win the Nobel Prize, no one would be too surprised.
In some sense, the academic world was also a circle of people who evaluated seniority.
Now, they heard that Lin Fan had won the Nobel Prize in chemistry. How could they not be excited?
“Professor Lin, you’re amazing!”
“Nobel Prize in chemistry! Professor Lin, congratulations!”
“Congratulations, Professor Lin!”
“That’s great!”
Hao Zhiwu, Liu Qianqian, Nie Zhenjiang, and the others shouted.
Even though they were looking forward to Lin Fan winning the Nobel Prize in medicine and the Nobel Prize in physics, winning the Nobel Prize in chemistry was not bad either!
As long as it was a Nobel Prize, it would be enough. It was a big event to be happy about!
Looking at how excited they were, Lin Fan could not help but shake his head with a smile.
At this moment, his phone rang again.
He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was still an unfamiliar number from abroad.
Lin Fan did not hesitate and answered the call.
“Hello, may I ask… if this is Professor Lin Fan?” A rather dull voice came from the phone.
Lin Fan said, “It’s me.”
“Professor Lin, hello, I’m Jeffers, the president of the Nobel Committee for physics. After the voting and recommendation of the Nobel Committee for physics, I hereby inform you that you have won this year’s Nobel Prize in physics…”
He had just received the Nobel Prize in chemistry, and now he was receiving the Nobel Prize in physics?
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. “Alright.”
The two of them continued chatting for a while before hanging up.
“Is it the media?” Hao Zhiwu asked again. “The media found out that you won the Nobel Prize so quickly?”
“It’s the president of the Nobel Committee for physics,” Lin Fan said. “He told me that I won the Nobel Prize in physics.”
Silence!
The originally noisy office suddenly became silent!
Hao Zhiwu, Liu Qianqian, Nie Zhenjiang, Jiang Chaoqun, and the others all gaped in shock.
What did they just hear?
The president of the Nobel Committee for physics called to inform Lin Fan that he had won the Nobel Prize in physics?
A minute or two ago, Lin Fan had been notified that he had won the Nobel Prize in chemistry.
Now, he was informed that he had won the Nobel Prize in physics.
The same person won two Nobel Prizes in the same year!
This… This was definitely something that had never happened before.
“Another Nobel Prize!”
“The Nobel Prize in physics!”
“That’s great!”
“Awesome!”
They danced and shouted.
