Chapter 16
Chapter 16 High School Math League
“Little brother, it’s easy to talk.” Shen Qi nodded, and then asked all his teammates: “Why is it that Teacher Cao strongly forbids us to use university knowledge to solve problems? For example, I have made the best swords, should I still use them? The lowest-level jungler goes to clear the field? It’s not efficient.”
Meng Tianqiang replied: “Didn’t Teacher Cao say that using university knowledge to solve high school math problems is equivalent to cheating.”
“Then everyone uses university knowledge and the standard is the same, so there is no cheating.”
“In fact, those of us have seen college mathematics textbooks more or less, and the depths are different. Shen Qi, you have to know that not every high school student can understand higher-end and more professional mathematics as you understand it. Profound, including me. If you use a lot of methods beyond the knowledge of high school textbooks to compete, it will be a kind of critical damage to other high school students, at least 10,000 points or more.”
“Well, Team Meng has no flaws in your logic.”
Shen Qi asked again: “Teacher Cao took the senior, why have I never seen him?”
Meng Tianqiang: “Ms. Cao has retired for several years, and he was rehired to take our math team. He is an excellent teacher in the country and is very famous in the industry.”
“What is the relationship between my head teacher Zhang Wanbang and Teacher Cao?” Shen Qixian was curious.
“It is said that when Teacher Zhang came to our school as an intern teacher, he was Teacher Cao’s apprentice. They were in a group and worked together for many years.”
“It’s no wonder that Teacher Zhang and Old Man Cao have a temper. Before teaching knowledge, I will eat you up, and then I will tell you the truth. If you say that Old Man Cao has gone to smoke again, it has been more than ten minutes before he comes back, and he is addicted to cigarettes. Really big!” Shen Qi looked out the door.
Meng Tianqiang said as usual: “He won’t come back, let’s teach ourselves here, and learn to disband at nine o’clock.”
“The training method of our digital competition team is really self-study?” The day after tomorrow is the digital league competition. Shen Qi thought there would be a round of assault intensive training tonight, but the intensive training method was collective self-study.
Meng Tianqiang said: “Most of the situation is like this. If there is any doubt, we will discuss it in the team first, and then consult Teacher Cao when all the players can’t solve the problem. This is not the case for those who do mathematics. They are self-taught.”
“The discipline and management style of the school mathematics team is really different from that of the school track and field team.” When Shen Qi passed the playground today, he saw the school track and field team in full swing under the leadership of the coach. His good friend Xu Rui Du had a cramp.
“We are men with brain power, and we are taking a high-end route. Can those savages on the track team compare with us?” Meng Tianqiang proudly said, resonating with all his teammates.
“They call us weak chickens. Let’s see that they are barbarians. I have a brother on the school track and field team. He alone can kill half of our multi-competitive teams.” Shen Qi told an objective fact.
“Fear wide!”
“Super wide and scared!”
“The barbarians are the most fearful!”
The rest of the team members shivered and read their books and did their own questions.
…
“Shen Qi, what are you going to participate in? Math league? There is also a league for math specials. What kind of league is a group of weak chickens playing! What? What is it? If you play this broken league, you can go to Tsinghua? Is there any reason to go to his uncle? , The weak chickens on Tsinghua University are also weak chickens, senior weak chickens with diplomas! Shen Qi, you play a good math league for me, if you can’t win the championship, I will pick you up!” This is Xu Rui’s WeChat message to Shen Qi.
The language style is simple and rude, but Shen Qi feels the warmth.
In the past two months, Shen Qi’s progress is obvious to all.
Xu Rui accepted this fact. Since his good friend Shen Qi has the aspirations to work hard, I hope he has a bright future and a gratifying study.
“Shen Qi sauce, come on, wait for your good news O(∩_∩)O ” This is a WeChat message sent by Chen Xiaoting to Shen Qi. The language style is gentle and pleasant.
“As a representative of the math class, I didn’t have the opportunity to participate in the number union on behalf of our class, but you did. Shen Qi, help me make up for this regret. Class 2 depends on you. Don’t let the people of Class 45678 look down on us. “Huang Zikun, who is not far and close, also sent a WeChat message to Shen Qi, and Huang Zikun, who has always been arrogant, showed a touch of sourness in his words.
Zhang Wanbang didn’t say a word to Shen Qi before the game, and didn’t even see him.
But Shen Qi knew that the person who cared about him most except his parents might be Zhang Wanbang.
And the person who knows himself best, Teacher Zhang may be ranked first.
May 17, Sunday.
Shen Qi is wearing the school uniform of Nangang No. 2 Middle School, his student ID, competition certificate, pen and ruler belt are all packed in his schoolbag. He sits in the passenger seat and operates his mobile phone, replying to several classmates one by one.
The car was a black Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Although it looked 70% to 80% new after driving for a few years, the driver Shen Zhishan stopped on the road and waited for the red light: “Shen Qi, you have been playing with your mobile phone after going out. Are you too nervous or too relaxed? ?”
“The students are very concerned about my participation in the Digital Union, and I am thanking everyone for their support. Too relaxed, not too nervous. Too nervous, not too nervous. Keep a normal heart.” After sending the last text message, Shen Qi put away his mobile phone. .
“It’s very good to be able to maintain a calm mind.” Shen Zhishan opened the skylight and let in some wind. “Shen Qi, your recent progress and hard-working learning attitude are in my eyes. Let’s open the skylight and talk about your future. What is the goal?”
“Go to a university.”
“Which university do you want to study?”
Shen Qi looks up at the early morning sky through the skylight. The weather is good today: “I like universities with nice names, such as Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Tongji, Yixian, etc.”
“Universities with nice names are all prestigious universities, and their ambitions are not small. But if you rely on mathematics alone, are you having trouble getting into these nice prestigious schools?” Shen Zhishan asked.
Shen Qi: “I hope that this time federation can win a grand prize, and strive for the special recruitment of leading talents in the professional field of prestigious schools. The mathematics departments of these prestigious schools with nice names I just mentioned are very well-known, and fresh graduates who enter their mathematics department More than half are special moves, which is what Teacher Zhang said. Of course, the college entrance examination cannot be given up. This is the back road. In short, both the competition and the college entrance examination must be hard to grasp.”
“You are more intimate to Teacher Zhang than to me.” Shen Zhishan laughed and said, “Yes, your plan is more reasonable and sensible, but your mother wants you to study medicine.”
Shen Qi asked instead: “What about you, what do you want me to learn?”
“Before I wanted you to go to military academy, but your character is not suitable for the military road. Go on your own path, choose your own life, all I can do is to prepare your tuition for you, where to go after a year ,it’s up to you.”
“Long live the understanding. Dad, you don’t need to drive me. It only takes me ten minutes to go to school by bike.”
“Today is a new starting point in your life. I must personally send you to participate in the Digital Union competition. There is no way, this is the love of the father.”
“Dad, I mean, you drive slower than I ride a bike. This intersection has been blocked for 10 minutes, and the red light has not passed for seven rounds…you are going to be late!”
Finally, Shen Zhishan drove through the most congested intersection, and Shen Qi got off at the gate of Nangang No. 2 Middle School.
There was a bus parked in front of the school, and Meng Tianqiang, the captain of the competition team, looked anxiously under the car.
Meng Tianqiang found Shen Qi, he beckoned and shouted: “Shen Qi, get in the car!”
Shen Qi sprinted to the front door of the bus and got on the bus with Meng Tianqiang.
“I’m sorry, Teacher Cao, I’ve been waiting for a long time.” After getting in the car, Shen Qi apologized to Cao Xin’an sitting in the front row.
Cao Xinan asked blankly: “Have you brought your student ID and entry card?”
“I brought it with me.” Shen Qi took out his student ID and competition certificate and showed them to Cao Xin’an.
Cao Xinan spread out his right palm: “Turn off the phone, UU read www.uukanshu.com to me, and then go to find a seat in the back.”
Shen Qi took out the phone, turned it off, and gave it to Cao Xin’an for safekeeping, and then went to find a seat in the back of the car.
The bus started and headed south.
There are a dozen people in the car, the driver, Cao Xin’an and all the members of the Nangang No. 2 Middle Number Competition Team.
Cao Xinan is the leader of this team. Today he will lead the team to the annual provincial high school mathematics league.
Last year was also the team led by Cao Xin’an, with poor results, only two first prizes, and none on the provincial team.
The year before last was worse, with 0 first prizes and only 3 second prizes.
The record that Cao Xinan is most proud of dates back to eight years ago, when he had not retired and taught at Nangang No. 2 Middle School.
There were so many talented players in that session. They all won the first prize, and half of them were on the provincial team line. The most outstanding wizard was finally selected for the Olympiad National Team that year. He represented China in the United States and won the IMO gold medal. He was sent to Tsinghua University. He is now studying at Trinity College in Cambridge, UK for a PhD.
Over the past eight years, the overall level of mathematics in Nangang No. 2 Middle School has gone from prosperity to decline, which makes Cao Xin’an very unwilling. He has only one wish to send another student to the national team before his death.
However, the overall competitive level of this year’s digital competition team cannot satisfy Cao Xinan. He is 64 years old and will not be able to work for a few years.
The only person in this team that made Cao Xin’an a little relieved was the captain Meng Tianqiang.
Meng Tianqiang won the first prize when he was in the second year of high school last year when he participated in the Digital Federation, but he was at most the provincial first prize level.
“Do you really want me to live to 70? I don’t know if I can live to 70.” Cao Xinan feels helpless. He is not afraid of death, he is afraid that students will not become a weapon.
