Start as a top student and move towards the stars and the sea

After some discussion, Tang Ding and others felt that this was indeed a method that could be tried.

Well, let's settle it for now. Let's contact the contestants from Yan University and ask them to cooperate with us. I don't believe that they won't doubt Ning Chen's results.

Like the students from Shuimu University, the contestants from Yan University were also very surprised by the appearance of the name Ning Chen after seeing the results of the semi-final written test announced.

It would be understandable if Ning Chen only performed well in one single category. After all, there is a certain probability that some talents will be buried in the college entrance examination.

But obviously, Ning Chen's performance is too outstanding. According to this trend, Ning Chen is even very hopeful to win the final individual all-around award.

This award is the most important award in this competition. If it is really won by a student from a low-ranking 985 university, both Shuimu University and Yenching University will be discredited.

This allowed students from the two schools to unite in a rare way and jointly lodge a complaint with the competition.

…

Shuimu University.

In the office, an old man with glasses and completely gray hair was calculating something on a piece of paper.

Just now, there were three knocks on the door outside the office, but the old man ignored them and continued to make his own calculations.

It wasn't until a few minutes passed that the old man slowly spoke:

come in.

The person outside the door did not leave. After getting the old man's permission, he carefully pushed the door open and entered.

Professor Qiu, I didn't disturb you, did I?

Haha, when you asked this question, you already had the result in your mind. Tell me, what is it?

It's like this. More than 20 students from Shuimu University and Yanjing University jointly requested an appeal and review of the results of this semi-final.

Upon hearing the news, Qiu Chengtong was also slightly stunned.

More than twenty students have asked for appeal review? Do they all think there is something wrong with their scores?

It would be relatively normal if only a few students requested an appeal and review of their scores.

No, Professor Qiu, to be precise, they don't want to appeal to review their own scores. What they want is to review another player's score?

Oh? Whose is it?

Ning Chen from Shengzhou University.

Hearing this, Qiu Chengtong couldn't help but frown slightly.

Speaking of which, when he saw the final transcript, Qiu Chengtong was also very interested in this student from Shengzhou University.

To be honest, Qiu Chengtong had never even heard of a school like Shengzhou University before this. After all, Shengzhou University had no reputation internationally.

But even so, Qiu Chengtong did not doubt Ning Chen's grades. After all, which university he came from could not completely equate to a student's ability.

Qiu Chengtong once did not enter his most ideal university at the beginning. However, with his own efforts, Qiu Chengtong entered higher institutions step by step until he won the Fields Medal and became the world's best university. One of the top mathematicians.

Do you have any detailed information about Ning Chen? I want to see it first.

Okay, Professor Qiu, I'll find it for you right now.

After a while, Qiu Chengtong's assistant brought a stack of printed materials and handed them to Qiu Chengtong.

Looking at the information on the file, Qiu Chengtong's expression was constantly changing.

He is only a freshman, majoring in materials. He has never participated in a mathematics competition before. This is his first time participating in a large-scale mathematics competition...

Looking at the information about Ning Chen, Qiu Chengtong also felt a little confused.

It stands to reason that if a student really has a talent for mathematics, he can show it at least in high school.

Qiu Chengtong had never seen an example like Ning Chen before.

Qiu Chengtong continued to look down and noticed Ning Chen's experience in publishing papers.

My freshman year is not over yet, and I have already published two SCI papers, and both of them are the only first authors... It seems that this kid really has something special.

Even Qiu Chengtong himself had no exposure to the field of research when he was a freshman and focused all his energy on study.

Being able to complete undergraduate studies in three years and go to the University of California, Berkeley for further study was already a very good achievement at the time.

Feng Lan, go find the two papers published by Ning Chen for me.

Okay, Professor Qiu.

Feng Lan quickly found the two papers published by Ning Chen on the Internet, printed them out, and gave them to Qiu Chengtong.

Qiu Chengtong took the paper from Feng Lan and read it carefully.

Qiu Chengtong was very serious when reading the paper, but this did not affect the speed at which Qiu Chengtong read the paper.

In just over ten minutes, Qiu Chengtong had already read the core content of Ning Chen's two papers.

Yes, although it is only two papers from the second area, the research content is still very valuable. This child's future is indeed unlimited.

Feng Lan was also a little surprised by Qiu Chengtong's evaluation of Ning Chen. You must know that Qiu Chengtong has very strict requirements for students and rarely praises students. Even students from Shuimu University, Qiu Chengtong rarely gives such high praise. evaluation of.

Speaking of which, the reason why Qiu Chengtong wanted to create a new college student mathematics competition was not simply to test students' problem-solving abilities, but also to cultivate students' research abilities.

Qiu Chengtong would not like a very capable question-solving machine. Just because this was the first competition, Qiu Chengtong was a little more conservative.

Qiu Chengtong plans to add more competition content in the field of scientific research to this competition in the future to guide students through the transition from problem solving to scientific research.

After getting to know Ning Chen better, Qiu Chengtong also had a very good impression of Ning Chen, but at the same time, Qiu Chengtong also felt that everyone's doubts should be dispelled.

Feng Lan, let's review Ning Chen's results again, including the transportation and unsealing of the test papers, monitoring of the examination room, review of the final paper results, etc.

Okay, Professor Qiu, I'll make arrangements right away.

Following Qiu Chengtong's instructions, Feng Lan found the event staff to conduct a detailed review of Ning Chen's results.

As expected, during the entire score review process, the staff did not find any problems.

The transportation and unsealing of test papers were all in full compliance with procedural requirements. According to the replay of Ningchen's five-subject exam, the staff did not find any suspicion of cheating.

Qiu Chengtong was also very pleased to learn the results of the review.

Now, those Shuimu and Yan University students should be speechless.
