Shen Qi shook hands with Russian player Peter. This handsome blond guy is amazing. He scored perfect marks for three consecutive times, tying the IMO historical record.

Unable to communicate in a language that both of them are proficient in, the two make gestures, hug each other, and then walk away.

Finally, Wiles, the leader of the judging panel, made a concise concluding speech, and this IMO ended successfully.

"Hello, Shen Qi, I'm a UK-based reporter for QQ News, can I interview you for a few words?" A Chinese reporter approached Shen Qi, wanting to do a simple interview.

"It's not a live broadcast." Shen Qi found out that there was only the reporter and the photography teacher.

"We generally don't broadcast IMO live, and mainly report manuscripts with pictures and text." The female reporter explained, then turned on the recorder, and asked: "First of all, congratulations to you, Shen Qi, for winning three awards in a row at the IMO. The record of Chinese players, so what is the story behind your total score of 42+1?"

"Let me explain this." Shen Qi said, "Actually, there are four gold medal winners, including me, all with a perfect score of 42 points. The reason why Professor Wiles, the leader of the judges, gave me 42+1 Instead of 43, because this +1 is not included in the personal effective score, the extra innovation award I received is a windfall."

Shen Qi showed his extra rewards, a certificate and a book.

The certificate is the Innovation Award certificate. The strange thing is that there is no author's name or publisher information on the cover of this book, only the title "Beautiful-Language".

Turning to the title page of the book, Shen Qi pointed to a signature "Andrew-Wiles" and said: "The title of this book translated into Chinese should be called "Beautiful Language". It is not available on the market because it has never been published. This is Professor Wiles printed the book at his own expense, and he gave it to me as a reward for the innovation award. I like this gift and will study it when I get home."

The female reporter had a camera hanging around her neck. She took pictures of Shen Qi and asked, "The last question, do you have a favorite university?"

"Miss, what do you think?"

"ha?"

"Actually, I have thought about it for a long time, and now I finally have a general direction. I decided to study in China for my undergraduate degree. If I have the opportunity in the future, I can go to a foreign university to continue my studies."

"Then I wish you all the best."

After the interview, Shen Qi returned to the hotel with the team to pack his luggage and prepare to return home.

The system prompts: "Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new achievement, the individual ranks first in the International Mathematical Olympiad! Reward 15,000 Xueba points, multiplied by the mathematics master talent coefficient 2, the actual reward value is 30,000 Xueba points. The balance is 89,873 Xueba points , please confirm with the host."

Whether in reality or in the system, Shen Qi has gained a lot through this IMO, including gold medals, honors, and points for being a top student.

He met some special people, broadened his horizons, and all in all, it was a worthwhile trip.

On the last day of July, the Chinese Mathematical Olympiad team took the opportunity to leave London and return home.

On the plane, Shen Qi took out 50,000 Xueba points to upgrade mathematics.

System: "Congratulations to the host for being promoted to level 6 in mathematics. The host's observation, memory, imagination, judgment, deduction and other indicators in the field of mathematics have significantly improved compared with the previous level."

Host, Shen Qi

age, 17

Math Level 6 (0/150,000)

Physics Level 1 (0/1000)

Chemistry Level 1 (0/1000)

Biology Level 1 (0/1000)

Chinese Level 1 (0/1000)

English Level 1 (0/1000)

History Level 1 (0/1000)

Politics Level 1 (0/1000)

Geography Level 1 (0/1000)

Physical Education Level 1 (0/1000)

Balance of Xueba points: 39873 points

Upgrading from level 6 to level 7 requires 150,000 Xueba points, and the further you upgrade, the more Xueba points you need, showing a non-linear growth trend.

Shen Qi's level 6 mathematics level corresponds to high school mathematics without any problems, and it is estimated that only a top student in a university can beat him.

In fact, when he was in England, Shen Qi had been thinking about a problem, which was the language problem.

It is only when you go abroad that you realize how important it is to master a foreign language.

Just say "Hello, I'm so thankful, brother", like an idiot.

This is to meet a good-looking foreign girl by chance, and it is impossible to communicate with her in depth.

What's more, the book written by Professor Wiles is in English, and I can't even read it.

With a small investment, Shen Qi took out 1000 Xueba points to spend on English, and dropped the English to level 2.

System: "Congratulations to the host for upgrading to Level 2. The host's perception of English has improved significantly compared to the previous level."

Shen Qi: "You have strengthened so many ability indicators for me in mathematics, and only one perception in English?"

System: "Yes."

Shen Qi: "No."

System: "Science and linguistics are different categories, please don't confuse them. I reminded you when English level 0 was promoted to level 1."

It seemed to have been reminded at that time, but Shen Qi didn't pay attention. A few months ago, his energy was all on mathematics.

Now that IMO is over, Shen Qi can free up his energy to take care of other subjects.

Woohoo, the plane flew east all the way and arrived at the Capital Airport of China.

Shen Qi arrived in Nangang City on the morning of August 1 without leaving the Capital Airport to transfer directly to a domestic flight.

Shen Zhishan and Fan Yunxia drove to the airport to pick up their son.

Shen Qi went to the provincial team for training at the end of June, then went to the capital to participate in the national competition, was selected for the national training team, and went to England to play the international competition. During this period, the father and son met once in the capital. Shen Qi and his mother hadn’t seen each other for more than a month. .

"Mom, I miss you so much!"

"I miss you too, son!"

The mother and son embraced, and Shen Zhishan carried Shen Qi's luggage to the parking lot.

Not long after, the family of three got on the car and went home.

"Shen Qi, you are very famous now, international Olympic mathematics champion, do you know that my mobile phone has been blown up these days, and I charged 1,000 yuan for calls." Shen Zhishan complained that the call charges were too expensive. Write proudly.

"This is the truth. Shen Qi, you are on the news. There is an exclusive interview with you on QQ News. All the top 10 universities in China have approached your father." Fan Yunxia said, she was equally proud.

"Shen Qi, which university do you want to go to?" Shen Zhishan and Fan Yunxia asked at the same time.

"Give me a month, and I'll tell you the answer after one month." Shen Qi didn't say the answer immediately, but he said this with a firm attitude.

Fan Yunxia asked: "Oh? What are you going to do this month?"

"Practice?"

"What skills do you practice?"

"Divine skill."

"Don't mess around, Shen Qi, you managed to get some grades, can you be honest?"

After returning home, Shen Zhishan found that his worries were unnecessary.

Shen Qi's so-called practice of magic is actually learning English.

The English dictionary is always in hand, Martin Luther King's "I-have-a-dream" is playing in the earphones, Park Shu and Xu Wei's songs are stopped, and Maroon5 and Norah Jones are listened to, and "Game of Thrones" is read again. This version has no Chinese subtitles but only English subtitles... With the support of level 2 English perception, Shen Qi's actual English level has greatly improved, and he began to read the book "Beautiful Language" written by Wiles.

To be honest, Wiles's writing style is not good, that is, he can speak clearly at this level of expression.

But this book is full of dry goods, which belong to the nature of a combination of Wiles' autobiography + mathematics papers.

Wiles said he was born into an academic family, with his father a university professor.

He began to study Fermat's last theorem at the age of 10, and after 30 years of research, he finally completed the proof.

He said that mathematics depends on geniuses, but geniuses must have good teachers and helpful friends, and the collision of ideas produces great results.

The person he is most grateful for academically is his mentor Coates, who guided him to prove the elliptic curve of complex number multiplication, which gave him the courage to launch a general attack on Fermat's last theorem, and finally won the Fields Medal... …so mathematics is the most beautiful language. (End of the book)

After reading Wiles' mental journey and his insights into mathematics, Shen Qi made a decision the day before the start of school on September 1.

Go to Yanda as an undergraduate, and talk about it later as a graduate student.

Yanda’s name is not as good as Mizuki’s, but their mathematics major ranks first in China, and the collision of ideas produces great results.

"Yan University is okay. This is not a meme but a real situation. Don't laugh, Dad, can you be serious? I have decided to sign a contract with Yan University."

Recommend a book "The Godfather of Basketball in Sports", sports articles, food and grass. I was born in writing sports articles, please believe my professional vision.
