I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 51 Come on, young man

The autumn air was crisp and the sun was shining in the corridor. Shi Cunyuan looked at the extremely young high school student in front of him and asked, "Tell me the truth, how difficult do you think this paper is?"

In front of such elders, Qin Ke put away his arrogance and pretending to be coercive, which is too emotionally quotient, not to mention that the learning experience gained by pretending to be coercive in front of this mere old man is too limited, Qin Ke no longer likes it .

He pondered for a while before he said seriously: "It's very good, and there are many traps in the questions. Ordinary candidates will get caught if they don't pay attention, especially the last two big questions. To be honest, the time I spent on those two questions A lot, especially when thinking about the second method, it took like twelve minutes."

The corner of Shi Cunyuan's mouth twitched. Although the last two questions were not written by him personally, they were also reviewed by him, especially the second question, which was completely difficult for the provincial competition, and the test papers for the provincial competition generally only have five questions. Questions, the time is three hours, that is to say, it should be at least half an hour for candidates to complete one question.

As a result, in this kid's mouth, it is considered "a lot of time" to finish two big problems in twelve minutes, and to solve the problems with a new method after rethinking.

However, his expression was very serious, and his tone was very sincere, without the slightest intention of showing off.

Shi Cunyuan really didn't know how to express his current mood except sighing in his heart that "the waves behind the Yangtze River push forward the waves before" and "there are talents from generation to generation".

He asked again: "Why didn't you come to participate in the Olympiad in your freshman year?"

Qin Ke shook his head: "I didn't pay attention to the Mathematical Olympiad at that time." He was telling the truth. At that time, he was still trying his best to improve the ranking of the examination subjects.

Shi Cunyuan: "..."

In other words, this kid hasn't been in touch with Mathematical Olympiad for more than a year?
It took less than a year to complete such a difficult Mathematical Olympiad paper so easily?

Shi Cunyuan was still trying to maintain his superficial calm, but he was really shocked in his heart.

This kid is a genius, and a real genius!

The arrogant Quan Yan who claimed to be a genius that I met last year was not even a fart in front of this young man!
Shi Cunyuan looked at Qin Ke, and suddenly felt the surprise of Gauss' math teacher Butner when he discovered Gauss's talent.

It's a pity that although Enzhou University has a heavy capital, it can't compare with Qingbei.It is impossible for a talented student like Qin Ke to stay in Yuanzhou and be his student.

But Shi Cunyuan asked again: "Do you like mathematics?"

"I like it." If he hadn't liked mathematics since he was a child, Qin Ke's best subject would not be mathematics.

"Okay." Shi Cunyuan finally showed a faint smile on Gu Jun's tense face.

As a senior mathematician, he has seen many geniuses, and he knows that only interest and talent can stimulate the potential of geniuses and become great mathematicians.

"Look up at the starry sky, keep your feet on the ground, and work hard. Mathematics is a subject that never reaches its peak. I hope you can go farther than us older generations!" Shi Cunyuan said with emotion.

Mathematics is an ever-evolving subject that never ends. Numerous mathematicians from all over the world contribute to this subject, forming the current mathematical crown that is dotted with countless gems and stars.

It is a pity that compared with the continuous emergence of foreign mathematics geniuses over the years, although there are more and more people studying mathematics in China, there are fewer and fewer younger generations who have achieved results, and there has been a serious talent gap.

The results of the International Mathematical Olympiad are the epitome of Xia Guo's mathematics circle turning from prosperity to decline. More than ten years ago, Xia Guo could often win the gold medal in the International Mathematical Olympiad. In the past few years, he could only win the silver medal, but now he even won the bronze medal in the Olympic Mathematical Olympiad. How can this not make Shi Cunyuan, who has been engaged in mathematics teaching all his life, deeply regret it?

But seeing Qin Ke this year, he faintly saw a hope.

"Thank you teacher. I will continue to work hard." Qin Ke said modestly.

Shi Cunyuan was even more satisfied. Compared with the crazy and defiant Wenyan, such a humble and good student is worth cultivating. Last year, it was his insistence on not approving the full text that made Ming Ming take the first place in the provincial competition. Missed the national game.

Shi Cunyuan didn't speak any more, just patted Qin Ke on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Come on, young man, if you can pass the provincial competition, I will personally recommend and guide you to participate in the national competition. The future of this world belongs to you after all. Add more eye-catching pearls!
Seeing that Shi Cunyuan had gone far away, Qin Ke still didn't know who the old man was, but it didn't matter, it wouldn't affect his Mathematical Olympiad results anyway.

Look at the wall clock in the examination room is pointing to 10:30, which means that it has been one hour and three ten minutes since the start of the examination.

"It's time, my paper is on the table, it's time to hand in the paper, I'm going back to sleep, teacher."

Qin Ke yelled into the examination room, and then left calmly.

A series of emotional values ​​flashed behind him, followed by a pleasant system notification sound.

Wen Wenyan watched Qin Ke's figure disappear, and thought of the scene where this guy had a happy conversation with that obviously important figure in the organizing committee, and a lot of negative emotions surged in his heart, such as jealousy, fear, shock, anger... countless gloomy Emotions swept through his brain, and he suddenly screamed strangely, grabbing his hair vigorously, almost bleeding.

The three unlucky invigilators screamed "It's over". The examinee had completely collapsed in the exam, so he had to scramble to comfort him, and at the same time called someone to send him to the infirmary.

The rest of the candidates, including Chi Jiamu, were greatly affected, and they felt a sense of desolation and powerlessness as if the rabbit died and the fox mourned.

And the culprit who caused all this just looked back at the chaotic examination room, hummed a song, and walked briskly towards the entrance and exit of the examination room.

……

The teachers who lead the team to take the Mathematics Olympiad exam are not allowed to enter the exam room. At this time, Lao Zheng and other math teachers from Yingyuan High School, as well as the teachers from Chengkong High School and dozens of high schools in the city are all waiting at the entrance of the exam room. with.

Some high school leading teachers who had long since given up and wanted to participate were okay, standing under the shade of trees to smoke and brag leisurely.

The teachers in the other schools who attached great importance to this exam couldn't help pacing back and forth in the entrance of the exam room, checking the time on their phones again and again.

In fact, they also know that the Olympiad exams have always been difficult, not to mention that the difficulty of this exam has been significantly raised to a higher level. It is almost impossible for students to hand in the papers in advance—and there are also those who give up early.

The "most calm" person in Yingyuan High School is Lao Zheng. He didn't walk up and down like others, but just watched short videos on his mobile phone with Erlang's legs crossed, while smoking a cigarette leisurely, with a calm expression.

But the short videos kept scrolling down automatically, he didn't see him tap the screen, and the fingers holding the cigarette butt shook impatiently a few times, which showed that Lao Zheng was actually not at peace.

Suddenly someone shouted: "A student has come out."

"So fast? It's only been an hour and a half?"

"Most of the test papers are too difficult, so I just gave up and came out... Hey, the current students just don't have the mentality."

"Hey, look at this school uniform, it belongs to Yingyuan High School."

　Thanks to "Xianzhuo", "Lu Yi", and "Da Muze" for their rewards!
