On the third day after results can be checked, which is the last day of October, the Xingnan Provincial Mathematical Society announced the list of provincial awards for this year’s National Middle School Student Mathematics League. A total of 81 first prizes were awarded to Xingnan Province by the Chinese Mathematical Society this year.
Thirty-two places seem to be quite a lot, but there are four fewer places than last year.
No way, the quota for each province fluctuates based on the performance of previous provinces in the finals.
That is to say, only the top 32 students who won the first prize this year can form the provincial team to participate in the winter camp in November or participate in the following national competition. Just as Qiao Yu said after finishing the exam, the volleyball team
He ranked first in Xingnan Province, but he was not tied for first place. Unfortunately, although he thought the question was very easy, another lucky person did not appear.
It is said that he is representing the province, but in fact, the registration for the national competition is still based on the school unit. Moreover, Xingnan Province does not organize training camps. Generally, after the team leader is determined, before going to participate in the national competition, all confirmed players are gathered together.
Let's have a meeting together. Qiao Yu actually doesn't care about these procedures, but he feels that the Xingnan Mathematical Society announced the list a little too early.
It's already October 31st, why not just postpone it to next month?
It’s not anything else, it’s mainly because he’s afraid that his fellow graduate students at Yujiang University will accidentally see the announcement from Xingnan Province and feel uncomfortable.
After all, a student who ranks first in the province in the preliminaries has a great chance of entering the top 60 in the national competition. The idea that he needs to spend money to make up for classes is self-defeating.
Although Qiao Yu also knew that his senior brothers most likely did not believe his lies, but what is needed for some things is the subtle feeling that I know you are pretending not to know, and you also know that I am pretending not to know that you are pretending not to know.
For example, if a senior in the group suddenly said, "Congratulations, junior, for winning first place in the province in the National Middle School Mathematics League!" Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
If the list is announced until November, Qiao Yu can easily make excuses. After all, does Qiao Yu in October have anything to do with Qiao Yu in November? After a month, people's ideas are a little different.
A small deviation is very reasonable. Fortunately, such a disgraceful thing did not happen.
However, someone in another friend group of his started to make a fuss.
"@元请林风, holy shit, Qiao Yu, you actually won the first place in the provincial league again? Do you want to work so hard?" Obviously the one who can send such a message must be Yu Yongjun.
Generally speaking, as long as Yu Wei, the second-generation rich man, is not fighting with Yu Yongjun, he is definitely peeking at the screen.
Anyway, that's what Qiao Yu thinks. After all, it can't be such a coincidence every time. Every time Yu Yongjun said something bad about Yu Wei or flattered Qiao Yu for a little bit, he didn't specifically @ him.
But this guy always appears in the group chat in time, and then either replies or makes sarcastic comments.
So the two started to quarrel in the group. This happened again and again.
Although Yu Wei didn't know it, Qiao Yu had forgiven this guy countless times in his heart, and Qiao Yu himself was even moved many times - he was such a hot-tempered person, and his tolerance for the rich second generation was really...
It's very high! It's the same today.
Seeing this message from Yu Yongjun, Qiao Yu replied humbly: "It's not that I worked too hard, it's that the person who asked the question didn't work too hard. If I can get the first place, isn't it because the question is too easy? If the question is more difficult
One thing... Oh, by the way, the competition has unified questions across the country, so everyone has the same questions? That's okay... you think I didn't say anything."
Sure enough, as soon as the news was sent out, Yu Wei appeared. Cicada didn't know Xue: "Haha..."
Yu Yongjun: "Some people, please respect yourself. I just took a look and found that a certain person ranked third in Linhai. Why do you have the nerve to come out and laugh?"
Cicada does not know snow: "How strong Linhai's math competition, especially the CMO, is, some people have a point in mind. Do you think the country's strongest math giant is a joke? Qiao Yu only got first place in Xingnan, but he didn't know it when he arrived in Linhai
Can I be ranked in the top three? And I’m only 5 points behind the first place!”
Yu Yongjun: "No, how can you check other people's scores?" Chan Zhixue: "I have my own way, so you don't have to worry about it!"...
Seeing this conversation, Qiao Yu felt a little unbearable.
It's okay to be looked down upon by others, but you can't be looked down upon by the rich second generation...
So he quickly replied: "No, no, no, even if I say it modestly, I was number one when I arrived in Linhai. Although I don't know how many points your number one in Linhai is, I'm sure that number one can only be the same as the number one in Linhai."
I tied for first place." Yu Yongjun: "The boss is right, he is worthy of being a gold medal player! This kind of confidence is what you need! Someone named Yu in the group just wants to make up for his broken self-esteem, let's ignore him!
"
Chan Zhi Zhi Xue: "Haha...you said first place means first place? Do you know what the first place result in the Linhai competition is?"
Look, it’s not that Qiao Yu wants to show off, but that the world is forcing him all the time. What else can a fifteen-year-old child do?
All he could do was to quickly take out his mobile phone, skillfully enter the backend of the score checking system, and then directly take a screenshot of the competition score he found through the official query, and immediately send it to this small group of only three people.
Then he calmly added: "There's really nothing I can do. I accidentally got full marks on the first test and the second test... I don't know what the marking teacher did. Did he not mark the marks seriously and didn't choose the test carefully?"
Points will be deducted for small mistakes.
Well... shouldn't the national competition in Hainan use the national unified test paper issued by the Mathematics Society? Or maybe your competition also uses a point system? Of course, if your first to third place can all get full marks,
If it's still high, I really can't get first place."
As soon as this news came out, Yu Yongjun was very cooperative and started posting emoticons.
The first one is a panda face that is dumbfounded, the second one is a cat face that is dumbfounded, and the third one is a little man worshiping, and then quickly saying: "Big boss is powerful! Someone come out and die quickly!"
Then @ Chanzhizhixue started to show off again, and said arrogantly: "Come out, don't pretend to be dead, what else do you have to say? Don't play urine escape, class escape, smash your phone... Don't play the headwind game.
!Otherwise I despise you! Well, are you really so angry that you smashed your phone?"
After a while, Yu Wei appeared, still writing coldly: "If you want to despise me, Qiao Yu also despises me! What qualifications do you have to despise me when you are fifth in Shuangqing?" Then Yu Wei also @Qiao Yu: "Too much
It’s useless to say that, see you in the national competition! I will definitely surpass you!”
Qiao Yu immediately responded: "Well, should I say it or not... Do you believe this?" Yu Wei: "Haha..."
Qiao Yu quickly answered again: "But it's not completely impossible. I just thought of an almost perfect plan. Do you want to hear it?" Yu Wei: "..."
Qiao Yu: "You see, don't we have to take the test for two days? We all do the questions well on the first day. Anyway, I will definitely get full marks on the three questions on the first day. Then based on your answers on the first day, the second
God will make appropriate arrangements for you, such as doing fewer questions and so on, to satisfy your wishes.
In exchange, after you successfully beat me once, you will generously grant me a small wish, and we will both be happy. What do you think?" Yu Wei: "Haha, I'm sorry, not interested!"
Yu Yongjun: "Hey, sir, next time something like this happens, would you like to talk privately with that incomprehensible guy? I'm afraid that guy will suddenly feel that the test is not that important and really want to agree to your proposal.
Aren't you guys planning to work together to kill me and silence me? I'm so scared!
Yu Wei: "Get out!"
Qiao Yu: "..."
Qiao Yu was very depressed. This Yu Wei was still too young and too inflexible.
This idea of ​​spending a small amount of money to get physical and mental pleasure, which is obviously a win-win situation, Yu Wei rejected outright and did not discuss the feasibility of this idea with him privately. After all, he really thought it could be done with such a small operation.
Anyway, Tie Yizhong’s requirement for him is just to join the national training team and then win a gold medal in the IMO. The national training team only needs to enter the top sixty. According to the competition situation in previous years, the national team
The scores are generally within the range of 84-90 points.
The score for each question of CMO is three times that of IMO, which is 21 points. There are a total of six questions in two days, and the total score is 126 points.
So as long as he ensures that the other questions are completely correct and only does one less question, he can still get 105 points. If the operation is more extreme and he takes a little risk, he can even give Yu Wei half a question. What a pity.
, the rich second generation guy is too old-fashioned and principled, he doesn’t even know how to criticize this guy!
A five-star negative review for the unkind rich second generation!
But no matter what, a group of friends have successfully entered the provincial team, and it is indeed a very happy thing that everyone can meet in Ningshui soon. Qiao Yu actually really wants to see these two guys offline
If we meet again, can we fight directly?
Well, judging from the tonnage, if no one intervenes, Yu Wei will definitely be at a disadvantage. Especially with Yu Wei's character and the popularity he showed in the little Li Baba math competition, except for the teacher, he was beaten by probably
No one would start a fight. Qiao Yu had already begun to think about whether it would be better to create more opportunities for the three of them to be alone after everyone arrived in Ningshui.
If the two sides fight like this, he might be able to be a hero and save the rich. I feel quite happy thinking about it.
Qiao Yu felt happy, and the principal and teachers of Tieyi Middle School naturally felt even happier.
In fact, to be honest, the results of this year's National Mathematics Competition of Xingtie No. 1 Middle School were not very good. Probably because the questions in this year's first test were recognized to be difficult. Among the five people who signed up to participate in the competition this year, except Qiao Yu, Xingtie No. 1 Middle School In addition, everyone else was completely wiped out, and even the third provincial level did not get a single one.
But obviously this small failure is not important. After the results were found out, the school was still in a joyful atmosphere.
The banner congratulating Qiao Yu for winning the gold medal in the Little Libaba International Mathematics Competition has been removed, but the banner congratulating Qiao Yu for winning the first place in Xingnan Province in the National Middle School Mathematics League has been hung up again, seamlessly connecting the school. Three photos were posted on the official account, and Qiao Yu appeared three times.
Qiao Yu took a picture with Principal Zhang alone under the banner, Qiao Yu took a picture with Teacher Lan Jie, and finally Qiao Yu took a picture with all the school leaders and the middle and high school teachers. Although there were no Exclusive interview, but the last group photo also appeared in the next day's "Xingnan Daily" and "Star City Morning News".
So Qiao Yu knew that he was in the newspaper again because Principal Zhang thoughtfully gave him two newspapers the next day, which he kept as a souvenir. Then Qiao Yu gave them to Xia Keke at the weekend. After all, Qiao Yu really didn't I think this is something to commemorate.
Do you want to keep two tattered newspapers and take them out when you are old and say to your grandson: "I remember those days..."
Others may have this hobby, but Qiao Yu feels that as long as he is still awesome when he is old, there is no need to say the words "think about those days."
After all, only the weak will remember the glory of the past.
Just like when his grandfather was drinking with friends, whenever someone brought up these three words at the wine table, his grandfather would say: "Keep it in check, there are children here, what the hell do you think of those days! I only believe in prisons for serious criminals." There are real stories about those rotten people in there saying that they remembered those days, and all of us old guys were damn poor if we thought about those days!"
Although his grandfather's words were rough, Qiao Yu always felt that his dear grandfather was actually a philosopher. Those words that sounded extremely rough were all truths. Even the powerful curse words sounded unique. Grandpa I live a clear life, but it's a pity that the year never ends, and my age is fixed at fifty-eight.
The registration channel for the winter camp opened, and the school immediately registered for Qiao Yu. Anyway, Qiao Yu didn't have to worry about all the details. Of course, the competition did not accept students' own registrations, and the school signed up uniformly.
The team leader of the Xingnan Province team to participate in the winter camp this year has also been determined and announced on the website of the Xingnan Mathematical Society. It is a specially appointed expert from the High School Affiliated to Xingnan Normal University, a master's tutor at the School of Mathematics and Statistics of Xingnan Normal University, and the director of the Mathematical Olympiad Research Institute ——Honorary Professor Luo led the team.
After the team leader was determined, the top thirty-two players in the provincial competition went to a one-day meeting with their instructors.
The list of candidates for this winter camp was announced at the meeting. What was more surprising was that Lan Jie could also follow Qiao Yu to participate in this winter camp as an informal camper. This is probably because Qiao Yu scored an incredible result in helping Lan Jie The benefits obtained.
According to the rules set by the organizing committee, in addition to the team leader, each province can also bring several non-staff instructors to participate in the winter camp. Especially for major competition provinces like Linhai, Yujiang, Xingnan, and Xingbei, because of the allocated There are a lot of players, and a team leader is worried that he will be too busy.
It is appropriate to have a few instructors as assistants.
It's just that in previous years, they chose coaches from prestigious schools. To put it bluntly, everyone is still expecting these players to get good results in the national competition during the winter camp. Even if they don't have time to train during the winter camp, they have familiar coaches by their side. , give key players pre-exam psychological massage. If they can solve one more question, won’t the results come out?
There is no doubt that Qiao Yu is the big killer in Xingnan Province this year that will hit the IMO, and the importance of Lan Jie is reflected.
Although it is true that the CMO has to select 60, in the end, only six of these sixty people can eventually represent China in the IMO. There are more than thirty competition regions across the country. What is even more annoying is that every year, the final six people are entered. , there are often several from the same competition area
Weak areas have no dignity, only the strong can fight for the right to speak... This is true economically, and it is also true in competition. Although one more person will cost more money, it can be seen that Zhang Tiejun is still very happy.
Especially recently, every time I come back from a meeting outside, my face is full of spring breeze and I walk with wind in my eyes.
The most important thing is that Lao Zhang is really unambiguous. Inadvertently, Qiao Yu discovered that he had an extra 30,000 yuan in his card. It was a reward from the school and it was specifically stated that he did not need to worry about taxes. , the school had already paid the tax for him. For this reason, Qiao Yu even went to Lao Zhang coyly and asked what happened to the bonus.
After all, according to the previous agreement, he had to win the gold medal in the national competition before he could start exploding the school's gold coins.
Lao Zhang patted Qiao Yu's shoulder grandly and explained: "This is your reward for taking the first place in the exam. When we agreed before, we didn't expect that you would directly take the first place in the province with a full score!" But don't say anything outside. In fact, every school has rewards, but everyone gives them secretly and doesn't tell anyone."
Party A is so cute, Lao Zhang is such a good person!
For this reason, Qiao Yu didn't think Zhang Tiejun's habit of tapping people on the shoulders was a bad habit. At this time, the specific timetable for the winter camp was also announced.
This year’s winter camp is scheduled to run from November 17th (Sunday) to November 23rd (Saturday). Like previous years, it will last for seven days in total. The official exam will be on the 19th and 20th. The venue will be in Yu Luhai Middle School in Ningshui City, Jiangsu Province. For Qiao Yu, there was nothing much to say. Anyway, he had nothing to prepare.
The biggest reward for him from going to Ningshui City, Yujiang Province to participate in the winter camp this time will be the 100,000 bonus for winning the gold medal, and the 100,000 bonus for joining the national training team, totaling 200,000. This is something he has already told the school It was agreed. As for the other 200,000, we have to wait until July next year.
However, according to Lao Zhang's generous character, if he can win the first place in the national championship gold medal, he might be able to give more if he is excited. Although he does not expect his bonus to increase by one digit, but the number in the 10,000 digit can be changed from zero to zero. If you change it to other numbers, you will make a lot of money.
Qiao Yu now really understands how difficult it is to make money! He worked very hard to help a group of senior fellow students revise their papers, but he only got 4,000 yuan in tuition fees. This shows from the side that it is really difficult to make money personally. Earn, but the unit money should be much easier to earn. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have the ability to earn it.
In this way, time quickly came to the day of departure.
Saying goodbye to her mother was much easier. She didn't even have time to go through the process. Before he could speak, Qiao Xi simply pointed at the door of her house and said four words: "Get out of here! But Qiao Yu still stepped forward. I hugged this hard-spoken and soft-hearted woman in a ceremonial manner before dragging my luggage and leaving.
To put it bluntly, the first day of the winter camp is mainly about welcoming the delegations from each competition area and reporting in. The registration time lasts from 8 am to 6 pm.
It only takes six hours to take the high-speed train from Xingcheng to Ningshui. You can take the high-speed train that leaves at 9:40 in the morning and you can arrive at around 3:40 in the afternoon. Therefore, the Xingnan Provincial Team directly arranged to set off on the 17th. This month is the off-season for tourism, so the provincial team directly booked a carriage and gave the young players good treatment, including first-class seats.
The carriage was very lively. Most of the people selected were students from the four prestigious schools. Most of them had many classmates. They were in the same school, even if they were not in the same grade or class, they usually trained together. In short, the students from the prestigious schools, There was no need to worry about finding someone to chat with along the way.
Of course, there are also some students from scattered middle schools, mainly players from prestigious schools outside Star City and Qiao Yu.
Yes, there are only a pitiful three players from non-top four schools who were selected into the provincial team among the top 32 this time, and they are from three different schools. If we go to Star City specifically, there is really only Qiao Yu. A single Miaomiao. At this time, Lan Jie's role came into play.
The two people were naturally arranged to sit together in class, and they could chat with each other along the way. Although it was not as lively as other places, Qiao Yu felt that it was quite enjoyable.
Of course, Qiao Yu did not receive any cold treatment. On the contrary, when he was still in the waiting room, competition bosses from famous schools came to greet him from time to time. Some approached him and begged to add him on WeChat; some came to ask questions; There are also those who simply come here to brag with Qiao Yu.
Professor Luo, the provincial team leader, also came to chat with Qiao Yu for a while before driving. The discussion was still about some high-end topics. For example, he asked Qiao Yu what he thought of the topic of this competition? What are his thoughts after finishing the exam? Regarding the development of the competition topic Do you have any suggestions? Yun... I can't help it. Regardless of any competition, the first place will always receive more attention. Not to mention that Qiao Yu accidentally got a perfect score.
It was just a short time waiting for the bus, and we couldn't get to know each other right away.
Although he was not very familiar with the other students in the carriage, there were two acquaintances of the same age on WeChat who were also qualified to participate in this year’s winter camp.
What made Qiao Yu most angry was that while he was eating tasteless fast food on the high-speed train at noon, Yu Yongjun posted two photos in the group, in which both of them had already eaten at the buffet in the hotel. Of course, the photos were all taken by Yu Yongjun. It was obvious that this guy shamelessly approached and sat across from Yu Wei. I don’t know how this guy was so shameless.
Judging from Yu Wei's expression in the photo, it is obvious that he does not welcome the little fat man very much.
It's a pity that the two didn't fight directly in the restaurant, because the other person still had time to reply to his WeChat message, which meant that both hands were empty.
"Yu Wei, I won't say anything else. It only takes two hours by high-speed train from Linhai to Ningshui. But you are in Shuangqing, so far away from Ningshui. How come it's nine o'clock so quickly?" Looking at the two of them, Looking at the delicacies on the plate and the tasteless high-speed rail fast food in front of him, Qiao Yu asked with some annoyance.
One is third and the other is fifth, but he eats better than him! Is this reasonable?
"Forget it, we gathered at five o'clock in the morning and arrived at the airport at six-thirty. We waited for twenty minutes before boarding the plane. We caught up on some sleep on the plane and arrived in Ningshui before we even woke up." That makes sense.
Qiao Yu suddenly realized that his short fifteen years of life had been too good. Because he had never flown on a plane, he was so angry that he had just ignored the fact that planes were faster than high-speed trains. He felt a little ashamed.
Chapter completed!
