I reach the pinnacle of life by learning

It took Barton 6 minutes to write the answer.

When doing the questions, he has always had no distractions, so naturally he couldn't turn his head to look at Qiao Yu and provoke him.

What's more, Barton is confident that Qiao Yu will not write better than himself.

After leaving that day, Barton went to inquire about Qiao Yu's life story.

This person seems to be a little famous in China, but he has not been found in major competitions in the world.

Maybe the other party is just hiding their clumsiness, but for Barton, even in the international arena, he is one of the top group of people.

……

……

An hour and a half passed.

Ai Lu rested his chin, feeling a little bored.

His eyes fell on the screen, Qiao Yu's test paper was still blank.

The whole exam lasted for three and a half hours, with 3 questions, and it was in the same format as the IMO competition.

IMO也是一场3道题，考两天，不过是从上午10:30考到下午2:00。

Almost half of the game time has passed.

Alan is a referee, and he already knew the answer, so he was naturally not interested in doing the question again.

At this moment, another line of words was added to Barton's test paper.

Allen cheered up and watched with relish.

After a while.

The corners of Alan's lips rose slightly, and he scratched his chin happily.

Just like Professor Lin Feng occasionally wears glasses when reading papers, Allen will unconsciously touch his chin when reading answers.

This means that he is very satisfied with Barton's answering process.

Same as the last problem-solving process, Barton's solution process was written in one go, flowing.

The process is so standardized that it can be used as a reference answer, which looks pleasing to the eye.

This is the gap.

On the other hand, Qiao Yu still didn't move a word.

Allen's eyes fell on Qiao Yu.

The other party's expression is very calm, but the writing action is still intermittent, and it often takes a long time before writing such a line on the draft paper.

"Hey, I thought this Chinese person could at least be a little bit capable..." Allen smiled in his heart.

The audience outside the stadium couldn't help but feel a little bored.

"Why are you still looking at this, why not check Twitter." Justin of the US team nestled on a chair, looking as if he hadn't woken up, "Anyway, everyone knows the result."

Although Button is the youngest in their team, his strength is at least second.

The first is him.

German team.

A contestant opened the dark beer and took a few sips.

"Don't overestimate your own capabilities, take your own humiliation." He muttered his evaluation.

Lisa Sauerman raised her slightly curly reddish-brown hair: "The game is not over yet, isn't it too early to judge like this?"

Lisa was the only female player in the German team. Because she was too bored, she simply ran to the boys' dormitory and watched the game together.

She also holds paper and pen in her hand, participating in this silent competition.

What was even more shocking was that her answering speed was not much slower than Barton's.

Internationally, Lisa Sauerman is also a well-known star player, and she has competed with Button since junior high school.Because of nationality and time difference, this year IMO is the first time for them to compete on the same stage.

Daniel smiled and said, "Lisa, you won't be fascinated by this oriental man, are you? Indeed, he has a nice face. I have never been able to distinguish other orientals, but I can recognize him at a glance."

Lisa frowned slightly: "Don't be kidding, I just think you are too arbitrary. Don't you like to watch that game? Don't you have many precedents of headwinds? Until the last moment, who can know the result? "

Daniel took out his mobile phone and said enthusiastically: "Yes, you reminded me... The LOL World League has started again. Recently, I am optimistic about a player from Huaguo. The game ID is King, and he seems to be only 17 years old."

E-sports has no borders, and food is the original sin.Compared with his own e-sports team, Daniel is more optimistic about the EK team from Huaguo this year.

He paused, and continued: "But Lisa, I have to remind you. Games and mathematics are different... Everyone can play games, because the operating system is there, and you can play even if you are bad at it. But Mathematical problems, if you don’t know it, you can’t. How can you do it if you haven’t seen it before?”

In the Huaguo team.

Li Chujie felt restless at this moment.

"It shouldn't be." He circled around in his teacher's dormitory, "Qiao Yu, it shouldn't be."

If anyone within the University of Melbourne knows Qiao Yu's level best, it's definitely not Chu Xining, but him.

After adding WeChat, Qiao Yu occasionally came to ask him a few questions.

It is not the kind of aimless, purely quasi-questioning question, but a purposeful and targeted one waiting to be inspired.

In Li Chujie's mind, Qiao Yu was already half of his student.He hadn't even cared so much about the graduate students in the Department of Mathematics under his banner.

Li Chujie murmured: "Could it be that he was too nervous in the examination room... That's right, after all, the referees are all foreigners... That's right!"

Is Qiao Yu the kind of person who gets nervous?

joke.If Qiao Yu would be nervous, he, Li Chujie, would stand on his head and eat *.

But other than that, Li Chujie really didn't know how to explain Qiao Yu's current situation.

He raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist.Now that the exam is over, there is only one and a half hours left.

Barton has already completed two questions.

The last question is a geometry proof question, which is also the most difficult one.

In Li Chujie's pocket, the phone rang.

As soon as Li Chujie connected, a clear female voice came from the speaker: "Professor Li, hello, I am Zhang Wen, a reporter from "Huaxia Education News". Our newspaper heard that at the IMO International Olympic Games, Joe from the Huaguo team Yu and Barton Smith of the US team started a personal duel before the game. The editor-in-chief of our newspaper thinks this is a good news topic, can you provide relevant information?"

Of course, as for how to report, it still depends on the final result.

If Qiao Yu wins, it will naturally be a big publicity, and it will severely slap some "public intellectuals" who have no brains to brag about Europe and the United States.

If Qiao Yu didn't win, he could still catch Patton's racial discrimination, and Qiao Yu would report on defending the dignity of the country... As for the result, it's enough to just write it down in one stroke.

If Qiao Yu loses too badly... Cough, there is no need to spread such embarrassing things back to China.

Li Chujie rubbed his eyebrows.Most of the newspaper media with the word "Huaxia" in front of them are official media, and they cannot be easily excused.

But Li Chujie knows that sometimes media reports are not necessarily a good thing.

Before the IMO international competition, the Huaguo team took the fourth place in the total score one year.

Some people compared the Huaxia team's first and second place results in the past. At that time, the domestic media and newspapers were full of fire, saying that the Huaxia 1 generation was the beat generation, and it was ashamed to be thrown abroad.

Several contestants cried when they saw the report.

For poor grades, these players should blame themselves the most.But can it be their fault?

Many people can't even understand the questions, so it's very exciting to give advice.

To put it bluntly, this is just an international knowledge contest and should not carry too much special meaning.

He glanced at the screen again: "What? The signal in Melbourne is not very good, I didn't hear clearly. Hang up first, bye."

Qiao Yu's writing speed is indeed not fast.

Because he is used to the existence of a draft in his mind, generally speaking, only when he thinks of key steps, he will write them down on paper.

Compared with Barton, Qiao Yu looked as if he was stuck on a question.

At the third hour of the game, Barton wrote the last stroke.

He raised his hand and asked with a standard London accent: "Can I hand in the paper?"

Allen smiled and gestured to him: "Of course. But because it's not yet the end time, you can play with your mobile phone in the classroom after handing in the paper, but you can't make a sound, and don't disturb another contestant."

After all, sitting in the classroom and staring at the subject all the time is quite boring.

Barton nodded, expressing his understanding.

After he submitted the test paper, the tablet in his hand finally connected to the Internet.

The first thing Barton did was to look at the content of his opponent's roll.

Even though he thought that the other party was inferior to him, he still couldn't hold back when he saw that all three questions were blank, with a surprised look on his face.

That's it?

on this level? ?

Now there is only half an hour left before the end of the exam, and Qiao Yu still hasn't moved a word.

Barton almost wanted to laugh, laugh at himself.

Why on earth did he struggle for so long because of the words of this Chinese man.

Barton couldn't help turning his head and glanced at Qiao Yu.

There was no panic or annoyance on the other party's face, and there was even a laziness close to pleasure.

This made Barton feel a little uncomfortable for no reason.

However, it was only half an hour away.

Button pursed his lips, raised his legs, and waited for the result of this ridiculous game.

……

…………

……

Even Chu Xining looked worried when the game clock reached 3 hours.

Lin Zhiyuan even couldn't bear to turn off the screen.

The system might be on Qiao Yu's side, and the only "person" who is not nervous about him is the system.

Because it can see Qiao Yu's problem-solving steps.

At 3 hours and 05 minutes, Qiao Yu stopped writing and let out a long sigh of relief.

The tone of the system is very complicated: "I didn't expect you to be so bold. Have you ever thought about what to do if you lose due to lack of time?"

Qiao Yu's brain still had dizziness from overuse, and he replied with a smile: "I used to think winning or losing was very important. But now, I prefer to be happy."

Qiao Yu was very, very tired.It's not the kind of tiredness after running 1000 meters, it's like I haven't slept for several days, and my headache is about to burst.

But he still picked up the pen.

After a while, the sound of a pen tip touching the glass screen came from the classroom.

Button was a little surprised, and then looked at the time.

On the clock, it shows that it is now 3:07 minutes left.

In the last 23 minutes, finally decided to struggle again and save face?

But what can you do with such a short time at the end?

Unfortunately, there was a 15-minute delay in what was displayed on the screen.Otherwise, Barton was very curious about what Qiao Yu wrote in order to save face.

On the chat software, Justin was already asking him if he wanted to celebrate tonight.

Barton replied: No need.

Button: Beating an ordinary high school student, what is there to celebrate... Oh, by the way, maybe Qiao Yu didn't even reach the passing line for high school students participating this time?

5:22 in the afternoon.

There are still 8 minutes left before the end of the game.

Hearing Su Mingyang's cynicism, Chu Xining rarely refuted, but wrote and drew on the paper.

He did the first two questions and was stuck on the third one.

I can make two questions, why didn't Qiao Yu write a question?

Li Chujie was inexplicably desperate, wishing he could get into the classroom, grab Qiao Yu's neck and ask him what he thought! .

At this moment, the first line of words in Qiao Yu's test paper finally appeared on the screen!

Li Chujie was agitated for a while, and leaned forward to take a look, only to see Qiao Yuduan wrote a word in an upright manner.

"untie".

Li Chujie: "..."

But he was not lost for too long, because soon, the second line of words on the test paper appeared.

"If the proposition |S|=n>3 is true, then consider s={(x0, y0)...(xn, yn)}"

……

……

German team.

On the mobile phone, King just completed a beautiful triple kill, trading 1 for 3, killing the opponent's output and jungler in seconds, turning around the disadvantage with his own strength, and the bullet screen is full of 666.

Daniel was excited and screamed in the empty room.

In order not to disturb other teammates who were reading the question, he specially found a place where no one was there.

Not surprisingly, the Huaxia team won the first group match of the LOL qualifiers.

During the game break, Daniel returned to the small classroom of the German team holding a beer can.

"Is the result of the game out yet? It's already 5:[-]!" He shouted loudly.

However, at this time, the teammates turned their heads one after another, glared at him, and gave him a "shush" to signal him to be quiet.

Daniel was a little confused, so he stepped forward and glanced at the big screen in front of him.

In the next second, a sip of beer sprayed out of his mouth.

"WTF? When did this Chinese man write so much?"

How could he remember seeing it 10 minutes ago, but it was still blank? ?

Daniel put down his phone in disbelief, leaned in front of the screen, and carefully followed Qiao Yu's steps to solve the problem.

He couldn't read Chinese characters, but he didn't have any problem reading the list.

This may be the charm of mathematics.

Arabic numerals and mathematical symbols are common all over the world.And the answer is always yes.

"It seems to be right..." Daniel couldn't help muttering, "And, unexpectedly... unexpectedly...what's going on with him?"

For the first question, Qiao Yu gave two proof methods.

All right.

Because the system was delayed by 15 minutes, even though it was past 5:30 pm, the words on the screen continued to increase.

Daniel couldn't help but continue to scroll down.

He gasped.

For the second question, Qiao Yu also gave two proof methods, and the screen is displaying the third solution.

Daniel couldn't help but took out the paper and pen, and calculated according to the steps.

The answer is also correct.

He put down the paper and pen, and raised the beer again with trembling hands.

"Well, Lisa... Although you don't understand the game, maybe this time, you are right."

The author has something to say: Barton: Is that all?

Qiao Yu: That's it.
