This statement is quite novel indeed...
"Ah... I think it's better to... forget it. If you want, you can take me with you. If Stockholm is really willing to give it, I'll donate the money to the institute as research funding," Edward Witten shrugged and said casually.
When he decided not to accept the award, he already gave up the prize money. Now that Qiao Ze intends to retrieve it, he doesn't plan on keeping it for himself.
For someone of his status, splitting tens of thousands of US dollars among three people is really not a big deal. Especially since coming to Xilin, the treatment in all aspects has been really good, he doesn't even find a place to spend money.
However, speaking of which, Qiao Ze indeed has a reason to ask about the money.
After all, not only did he share the Nobel Prize in Physics with the other two, but he also received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry independently, totaling over a million US dollars.
"Alright." Qiao Ze nodded in agreement.
