Please don't touch me at the same table, thank you

For the league, the school did not take a very serious attitude. At most, it took a week to help the reference candidates review the knowledge points in advance.

After all, the exam will be in mid-September, and the national day will give out scores. There are only 4 to 30 places in a province, and then we will continue to screen in the national competition... The probability is too low, and even many teachers do not have much hope for applying.

The preliminaries are not bad, and the content of the exam can still match the knowledge of high school. There is a lot of expanded knowledge in the league, but the category of elementary number theory, including the method of infinite descent, Euclid's division, Fermat's little theorem, Gaussian functions, etc.

Meng Xi still heard people complain about how difficult the competition homework assigned by the teacher was, so he suddenly remembered this and asked Song Huai how he was preparing for the league.

Song Huai said it was okay.

Except for the few days when Meng Xi went on a trip this summer, they didn't waste any other free time. Song Huai got up at [-]:[-] in the morning and went to Meng Xi's home at [-]:[-] to help him with tutoring. Outline of the competition: Have a meal at noon, correct the test paper, and then talk about the wrong questions, and set aside another two hours in the evening to correct the homework.

Meng Xi's progress has not fallen behind, and of course neither has his.

Before the math teacher asked Song Huai to get the test papers, and told him that after the preliminaries, twelve people from the school entered the league, and most of them were on the line.The teachers of these students also did homework for them. Some of them gave up the competition during the summer vacation and turned to fully prepare for the college entrance examination, while some were very confident in their abilities and chose to fight again.

"Now there are only nine candidates left for the league, three from class one and two from class two. Your class is you and Chen Jin. The remaining two are outside class six."

The math teacher revealed to him that the first class is mainly Chi Hui and the other two top ten students in the grade, and the remaining two students who are beyond the sixth class are all very serious partial subjects, who can pass [-] in mathematics and [-] in Chinese. Students, that's why I want to grit my teeth and give it a walk.

She didn't say it clearly, but what she said meant that she didn't expect much from other people. Now the school had the most high hopes on him, Chi Hui, and Chen Jin.

Although Chi Hui is not smart, but he has enough stamina and a calm temper, and he can absorb knowledge points step by step; Chen Jin is a genius with a very strong understanding ability. He is also severely lame, but it does not hinder He can learn math problems at a glance and draw inferences about other cases from one instance.

Song Huai belongs to the neutralization of the two.

He is not as impetuous as Chen Jin, and his talent ceiling is higher than the two, so he is naturally the most trusted candidate by the school.

"If nothing goes wrong, the league shouldn't be too difficult for you. If you can enter the winter camp, the school will specially prepare a teacher for you to help you overcome..."

"No need." Song Huai interrupted her halfway through, "Thank you to the school and teachers, but I still want to follow my own pace."

He said so, and the math teacher didn't persuade him any more.

Song Huai returned to his seat, and when he casually mentioned this to Meng Xi, Tian Xiaojuan was standing by the side and bent over to help Meng Xi write a brief analysis of poetry appreciation. Hearing this, she couldn't help but disappointed and said: "Then besides the few of you, the others Was it just given up?"

"It doesn't count." Song Huai said, "The league and the college entrance examination are not levels, let alone the quota for the national team. It's not that easy to find gold in the sand sea... It's a good thing for them to quit early and start reviewing Bar."

"That's right." Tian Xiaojuan and Chi Hui still kept in touch after the class was divided, and I heard him complain about the pressure of learning Mathematical Olympiad. Going to sign up. Or should I rather die than surrender, saying that if the last round is passed, then I won’t get anything? She just gave up the idea..."

While talking, she brought up the old topic again, with an envious expression on her face, "Unlike a god of learning, the national team should be able to advance steadily, right? By then, you can go to university directly without the college entrance examination, and save a few months. It's time, you can go out and play well."

"It's not so easy." Meng Xi answered her, "I have to train for a while after joining the national team, and I will decide whether to go to the International Mathematical Olympiad according to the situation... There are many things to do."

"That's right." Tian Xiaojuan's temples felt numb at the thought of competing with those foreign mathematics masters, ""

"That's right." Tian Xiaojuan's temples tingled at the thought of competing with those foreign math masters, "Before I met the master of mathematics, I thought I was already a genius, and I could hang and beat other people's children in the neighborhood." The kind. Now I know that I am just a hardworking type..."

Song Huai suddenly said: "The diligent type is enough."

Tian Xiaojuan was stunned for a moment, got stuck, and then smiled and said: "God of learning...you are so smart, of course you don't think it doesn't matter if you are talented. Like us, every step forward is really hard...you say Right, Meng Xi?"

"what?"

Meng Xi was suddenly cueed, and he didn't care. He was about to answer her "yes", when suddenly there was a clatter in his ear. Song Huai put down the things in his hands, pulled away the chair, and said lightly, "I'm going out." gone.

"Ah, here." Tian Xiaojuan was dazed for a long time, looking at Meng Xi helplessly, "Did I... say something wrong?"

Meng Xi was also taken aback, and then he smiled to comfort her, "...it's okay."

·

When Song Huai came back again, he became in a state of nothing to do, and he still accompanied him to do his homework and sort out the wrong book.

Meng Xi hesitated several times, but decided not to ask.

They are not children anymore, even the best friends or lovers still need their own secret time and space.Some things can be digested by themselves, so why did he bother to provoke this matter again?

He will naturally say what he wants to say, and it's useless to force him to say what he doesn't want to say.

He went to France once, and he adjusted his mentality very well, and he didn't take gains and losses so seriously.After Meng Jianguo confirmed that his son was indeed interested in the major of architecture, he deliberately dragged his friend to contact a top domestic architect with a good relationship.

The architect is Chen Yun, 34 years old this year. He has been working in Ma Qingyun's Ma Dasiban Architects for a few years, and has accumulated a lot of contacts and resources. Wonderful work, also quite famous in this industry.

Chen Yun was also very busy during this time, because of acquaintances, he only found time to meet them during the National Day.Chen Yun laughed when he heard that the child wanted to take an exam in the Department of Architecture and wanted to consult related matters.

"I want to study architecture, that's great." Chen Yun nodded, first expressing his approval, then changed the topic, "But I have to ask you in advance, do you want to study design or architecture?"

When asked this question, Meng Xi was stunned on the spot, "Is there... any difference?"

"Of course, there is a big difference." Chen Yun said patiently, "If you want to learn design, be prepared to spend ten or eight years. Maybe you can only use one of the twenty pictures you draw. No boss can do it. Appreciate your creativity - all they care about is getting rid of those two gaudy ceiling pieces to save them some money."

Meng Xi: "Ah, this..."

"Besides," Chen Yunyu said earnestly, "you have to have the ability to accept failure. I have seen too many architects who came out of Tsinghua University, and they are still unknown after a small half of their life. They are the ones who have won countless awards in school. The proud son, once he enters the society, he can only be the son of the management, pointing out where to change, changing the good sky bridge into an indoor viewing glass path-making it like an escape exit, this kind of thing is not uncommon. Most of the heart The haughty ones are exhausted like this. When they are 40 or [-] years old, they have no ranking in the competition, and they can’t get money. In the end, they have no house, no car, no fame, and no wife. Good guy, I’m finally going to bow to the society. The boss doesn't approve, thinks he is not well-known, and the design is not very good, so he wants to lower the price... This is how a person's backbone is worn down step by step."

Meng Jianguo had been listening in, and he quickly interjected, "That's okay, it's really not good, Xiaoya came to my company to do design after graduation..."

"Design what? Just design your real estate? Is it a sense of accomplishment to chew the old?"

Chen Yun raised his eyelids, disapproving.

Although his mouth is poisonous, everything he says makes sense.Meng Jianguo was listless and stopped talking.

Meng Xi knew that what he said was the truth, so he was not angry, and asked: "Then why do you want to learn architecture?"

"Learning architecture is not easy? The employer provides quotations and requirements, and the group discusses a prototype, draws sketches and develops concepts. During the period, there are two fights with the structural engineer and the consulting department (responsible for cost estimation, etc.)—some are awesome, both If you study architecture and are a structural engineer, then you just need to slap each other with the budget team. Usually they can prepare a third draft, but the front is garish, and it is actually a show. Once the manuscript is handed in, it will be almost ready.”

"It's not over yet. When the material quotation is produced, you'll know what nitpicking is. You've squeezed the budget to the highest cost performance, and the boss is still not satisfied. After changing this and that, you can't wait to come up with the best. Beautiful dilapidated house..."

Chen Yun talked for a few minutes at a stretch, his mouth was almost dry, he stopped to take a sip of water, and concluded, "As long as they can make money, why can't they do it? If you want to learn architecture, it's very easy, just remember one sentence - capitalists There will never be a limit."

Big capitalist Mr. Meng: "..."

"Children, the road of construction is not easy. Talent is very important, but sophistication is very important." Chen Yun said honestly, "Your family is rich, and you are already one step ahead of others. But can this road go far? It still depends on your ability. Whether you can conquer design or capital is very important.”

"If it were you...how would you choose?"

"Why do you have to choose between the two?"

Meng Xi thought for a while and said, "There must be a balance beam in the middle. With so many architects at home and abroad, are they thinking about whether to just be themselves or just make money at the beginning of their careers? Like and love are the first. Then I will consider whether I can afford to eat. I think if you enter the industry with such an idea as you just said..."

He shook his head with a gentle tone, "Then he is not worthy of studying architecture."

Chen Yun was stunned.
