Chapter 141 Lao Kong, do you know that it is coincidental?
While they were chatting happily in Dormitory 101, Jiao Mingwu and Gu Zhizhong were drinking tea in the School of Mathematics office.
"Old Gu, have you looked at Xu Qingzhou's test paper?" Jiao Mingwu asked with a smile.
"Yeah, full marks." Gu Zhizhong took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and looked at Jiao Mingwu, "Your score should be similar."
Jiao Mingwu nodded slightly, and said in a surprised tone: "It's a full score. Our School of Mathematics has produced another genius. I can guarantee that within 10 years, he will definitely shine in the mathematics world."
"As long as he can calm down and work hard, his future achievements will definitely surpass you and me." Gu Zhizhong agreed.
"Is he still working on Cramer's conjecture?" Jiao Mingwu asked curiously.
Gu Zhizhong laughed dumbly: "I called Xiao Huang from the Supercomputing Center and he said that Xiao Xu hasn't been there for a long time. He probably gave up."
"Young people all have to go through this." Jiao Mingwu said with a smile.
"We can rest assured that the child's mentality has not been greatly affected."
The two did not delve into this topic in depth, so as not to bring up their embarrassing moments in their youth. After all, they had both put a lot of effort into these difficult math problems and were hit hard by them.
Jiao Mingwu poured himself some tea and asked, "How is the training of this MCM class?"
Gu Zhizhong is the instructor of this year’s MCM class at the School of Mathematics.
"Not bad. It should be no problem to get an O award." Gu Zhizhong smiled and said confidently.
The O Award is the special prize in MCM. Every year, approximately of the teams can win the O Award. The O Award will also be subdivided into different types of championship awards.
This is all a story for later. In 2014, Kyoto University’s performance was not ideal. It didn’t even win an O prize, let alone the championship award.
This is the pain of the School of Mathematics of Peking University. The School of Mathematics of Peking University, which is famous for its strong mathematical skills, has not even won an O Prize.
"What a pity, Xu Qingzhou has only been in school for one semester and cannot participate in this year's MCM. Otherwise, he would definitely win the championship award!" Jiao Mingwu regretted.
After that, he smiled softly and said, "However, this year's CUMCM (National Undergraduate Modeling Competition) is a sure win, and I will compete in MCM next year."
Generally speaking, only sophomores can sign up for CUMCM, because it requires a considerable amount of knowledge, and it would be a waste of time and energy for freshmen to go.
Gu Zhizhong also nodded slightly. With Xu Qingzhou's ability, it would be no problem for him to win an award.
On the other side, when Xu Qingzhou and his three companions finished eating and drinking, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening.
After one semester, Kong Xianbo and Zhai Ziqiang successfully upgraded from "newbies" to "newbies". Although they are still newbies, their drinking capacity has increased visibly.
For example, Zhai Ziqiang, after drinking 4 bottles of beer, can still walk in a straight line, although he still needs Xu Zhengyang's support, but it is much better than the original one bottle.
"You guys go first, I'll buy something." Xu Qingzhou looked at the snack stand next to him and planned to buy something for Song Yao.
"Old Xu, keep an eye on them."
He gave another reminder before leaving.
"Don't worry." Xu Zhengyang nodded with a smile.
Looking at Xu Qingzhou walking towards the snack stand, Kong Xianbo took a deep breath. Old Xu was his biggest competitor in these math competitions.
I have to say, Lao Xu is really strong.
but
The great scientist Edison once said that success requires 99% sweat and 1% inspiration. If you work hard, you will get what you want. As long as he concentrates on his research, he will definitely be able to catch up with, no, surpass Lao Xu!
What's more, Lao Xu is addicted to women!
This is the opportunity!
"Lao Kong, Lao Kong?"
At this moment, he suddenly heard someone calling him. Kong Xianbo turned around and saw Xu Zhengyang looking at him with a complicated expression. He slowly said, "Old Kong, have you heard of an idiom?"
"What idiom?"
Looking at Kong Xianbo, Xu Zhengyang said four words: "Unintentionally."
Damn, that look that Lao Kong gave Lao Xu just now.
It's unclear, the way is unclear.
Especially the look at the end, which has the domineering aura of a domineering president that says "I must get it".
If you think about it carefully, apart from the white moonlight he was obsessed with, Lao Kong had only gone out with girls a few times.
"roll!"
10pm.
Xu Qingzhou went downstairs to the Peking University Library and sent a message to Song Yao, saying that he was waiting for her downstairs in the library.
Song Yao replied coldly with "OK".
After 5 minutes.
A good-looking figure appeared at the door of the library. Song Yao was wearing a mung bean-colored down jacket, a white scarf, and a simple high ponytail. There was a hint of coolness in her simplicity.
Especially, coupled with that cold expression, it gives off an aura of keeping strangers away.
Xu Qingzhou waved his hand. Song Yao had been very busy during this period and he hadn't seen her for three days.
"you've been drinking?"
Song Yao could smell the alcohol on this guy from a distance.
"Yes, dormitory dinner." Xu Qingzhou nodded.
Song Yao frowned: "Drink less."
"After I drink, I won't be as violent as someone else," Xu Qingzhou joked with a smile. But just as he finished speaking, he felt a hand pinching his waist through his open clothes, "Hiss~Ah! It hurts!"
"Song Yao, you are repaying kindness with hatred. I was kind enough to send you food!"
Xu Qingzhou grimaced in pain, lamenting how she had suddenly turned into a shrew from a cool and aloof goddess just now.
Song Yao also noticed what Xu Qingzhou was carrying at this time, so she decided to let him go. She took the thing from Xu Qingzhou's hand and warned him: "Don't mention that matter again."
He clearly took advantage of me last time when he was drunk, so on New Year's Eve, I'll just consider it as returning the favor.
The weather was very good, the night sky was clear, and the white moonlight poured down. In Jingyuan, the street lights on the small path emitted a soft orange light, which seemed to make people feel that the severe cold around them was reduced a little.
On the bench, a young couple sat quietly.
Song Yao was very touched. When she opened the lunch box, the fragrant smell of fried buns hit her face.
She ate it in small bites. It was clearly just an ordinary fried bun, but it made her feel like it was some kind of delicious food.
Xu Qingzhou looked at the girl next to him, with a faint sense of fatigue between his brows, and said: "You always told me to combine work and rest, but why did you end up tiring yourself like this?"
"Are you concerned about me?" Song Yao asked back, feeling even happier.
"No, I'm worried that if you get sick, no one will be able to bring me food at night. Why are you clenching your fists when you're eating?"
Song Yao was so angry that her teeth ached. This guy really deserved a beating. However, for the sake of this pan-fried bun, she would remember it and deal with it together next time.
