Chapter 36 (1/2)
”There's something in this year's College Mathematics Competition... Who is the one who created this problem?”
Office of the president of the Academy of mathematics.
Looking at the formula written on the blackboard, Wang Shuangquan touched the Hu residue on his chin with his right hand, and a dignified look appeared in his eyes.
Next to him is Professor Li Xuesong from the Department of mathematics, a leading figure in pure mathematics in China. He is also one of the examiners of the national undergraduate mathematics competition in early September.
”It's like Professor Liu Shoufeng from Xia Guo Institute of mathematics.”
”It's the old man who wrote the question...” Wang Shuangquan's face showed a sudden expression, nodded and said, ”no wonder...”
Mathematics is the foundation of science, and Xia state is based on science and technology, and attaches great importance to mathematics. Every year, National College Students' mathematics competition is held, which is mainly for students majoring in mathematics. The winners are expected to directly enter the national key research units.
Usually, in order to open the score, the last big problem is often put forward by the professor of Xia Guo Institute of mathematics.
But no one thought that the last big question of this year would be done by no one in the whole examination committee.
Even among these people, including Professor Liu Shoufeng himself.
As a member of the main examination committee, Professor Li Xuesong still remembers how the old man played tricks with him innocently when he found him——
”I didn't think that this question would be so difficult. At that time, it suddenly occurred to me that it seemed very interesting and I wrote it on the test paper.”
Now it seems that this question is quite beautiful.
Maybe it will become a mathematical guess.
Liu Shoufeng himself was happy and gave up, but he suffered from the main test committee of the competition.
In this way, half a week has passed since the end of the exam, and the answer to this question is still a mystery
Seeing that President Wang Shuangquan didn't respond for a long time, Professor Li Xuesong tentatively asked.
”What do you think of this problem?”
”I don't have a good idea yet, but my intuition tells me that the answer shouldn't be very difficult?” After thinking for a moment, Wang Shuangquan shook his head and said, ”let me think for another two days... What about Yanjing Institute of mathematics?”
Yanjing Institute of mathematics is another big mathematical research institution in Xia state. Different from Xia Institute of mathematics which focuses on Applied Mathematics, Yanjing Institute of mathematics mainly studies pure mathematics.
Obviously, it is better for experts to study this kind of number theory.
”The question has just been sent to them. I think we are having a seminar at the moment.”
President Wang nodded and touched his chin.
”That should be steady.”
”Well, I thought that my ability had fallen behind. I didn't expect that even you could not think of it. It seems that the problem lies in the problem itself.”
Looking at Professor Li Xuesong laughing there, President Wang was embarrassed and coughed.
”What do you mean, I can't think of it... Didn't you just get it to me?”
”Ha ha, I don't care. In a word, I'm in balance!” Li Xuesong laughed and waved his hand, ”stop pulling. I'm going to class. I'll still have senior math for a while, and there are two classes of homework waiting for me.”
”Homework? You're not going to take it as an assignment, are you
”It's a question of thinking. I didn't ask them to do it. What they can do is what they can do.”
Looking at this unreasonable old thing, Wang Shuangquan said with a smile: ”you are not bullying people.”
Can have this ability, already took the National Mathematics Competition grade one report card to recommend the Yanda. Although Jiangcheng university is also the top 10 of Xia and even the world, its resources are still a little less than those of Yanjing.
”Bullying? Oh, I don't think it's enough! These freshmen are just like ducks in the mountains. They have no discipline at all! Today's students, their mental outlook is far worse than that of our previous years. It's really worse from generation to generation! ”
As he spoke, Li Xuesong shook his head.
Looking at his old friend, President Wang said with a dry cough.
”Each generation has its own way of life. Don't always use the old calendar to ask the present students. Do you want your grandson to live in the old calendar or in the new era
”Can that be the same? How old is my grandson? ”After all, but Li Xuesong, the leader, muttered and digged off the topic.” it's almost time. I'll go back first. ”
The president of the court nodded with a smile.
”Go ahead, go ahead.”
This question is very interesting. He also wants to think quietly for a while.
Maybe we can solve it?
Although it seems quite challenging
……
Ding Ding Ding——
”Hiss... Why hasn't Hao Yun come yet?”
Looking at Lao Li, who had stepped on the bell and entered the classroom, Zheng Xueqian looked around anxiously and whispered to Liang Ziyuan, who was sitting beside him, ”this guy should not have slept.”
He didn't worry about Hao Yunque's absence. The main reason was that he helped to occupy the position too far ahead and left a book there in embarrassment. In particular, this kind of small class with only two classes is more eye-catching.
Liang Ziyuan: ”maybe.”
”Damn it, don't say it.”
Zheng Xueqian whispered make complaints about the book that had been put on the table before he received the white eye.
”Be quiet in class.”
Li Xuesong, who knocked on the blackboard and went up to the platform, left his advanced mathematics textbook on the platform, with his hands behind him and the expression of a world expert on his face.
”The Committee of class 1801 accepted the assignment.”
After listening to the homework, there was a groaning commotion in the classroom. Several students in the front row looked at each other, but they only saw helpless expressions in each other's eyes.
”Did you write it?”
”I didn't write it.”
”It's too difficult...”
”Yes, yes, I can't write it at all!”
”I have to hand in my homework. Isn't that a thinking question...”
”It's over, it's over.”
Seeing the students' reaction, Li Xuesong didn't make any expression on his face, but he laughed twice in his heart.
Can't do it?
It's a coincidence that you can do it!
He Ping, sitting in the first row, bit his thumb and looked at the three or five page manuscript on the desk. He frowned and didn't say a word.
Sitting next to him, the little fat man Zhou Xuan nervously poked his arm with a pen and asked in a low voice.
”He Shen, have you written it out yet?”
”No...”
”Damn, you can't do it?”
National high school mathematics competition province one!
