Let $A$ be a non-empty subset of the set of all positive integers $N^*$. If any sufficient big positive integer can be expressed as the sum of $2$ elements in $A$(The two integers do not have to be different), then we call that $A$ is a divalent radical. For $x \geq 1$, let $A(x)$ be the set of all elements in $A$ that do not exceed $x$, prove that there exist a divalent radical $A$ and a constant number $C$ so that for every $x \geq 1$, there is always $\left| A(x) \right| \leq C \sqrt{x}$.
