I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

Shen Qi left CUHK to go home, and immediately revised the thesis after arriving home.

The revision work was completed quickly, and Shen Qi checked it again, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Oh, by the way, according to the practice in the academic circle, I have to add the information of the organizational unit." Shen Qi returned his gaze to the paper's home page.

Journal papers have a standard format, and the standard format of the first page is as follows (for example):

"About the application of general relativity in a certain field" (thesis title, no more than 20 words)

Pharaoh (author's name)

(Yenjing University, School of Physics, Capital City, 100000) ---Brackets must be used here, and the author's affiliation, address, zip code and other information must be filled in the brackets. Authors who have no organizational unit and no fixed residence may not write this information.

Below is the abstract and key words.

Shen Qi's thesis completely followed the standard format, except that the information in brackets under the author's name on the homepage was left blank, so he had some concerns about submitting the paper for the first time.

But the editor of Dabaojian said, try to complete the information, high school students are high school students, what are you afraid of.

So Shen Qi operated the computer keyboard, typed, and filled in the organizational unit, address, zip code and other information under the author's name on the home page of his thesis:

(Nangang No. 2 Middle School, High School, Nangang City, 510000)

The title of Shen Qi's thesis is "Some New Solutions to Second-Order Constant Coefficient Linear Inhomogeneous Differential Equations", no more, no less, exactly 20 words.

The title of the first edition was 19 characters. After adopting the professional suggestion from the editor of Dabaojian, Shen Qi added a word "new".

In fact, the title of a thesis is similar to the title of a book. The shorter the title, the easier it is for readers to remember. However, the title of "Differential Equations" was already occupied by Leibniz and Bernoulli brothers three hundred years ago. Shen Qi can only lengthen the number of words. .

Last month, Shen Qi asked his father to apply for an academic fund and bought a printer, which he connected to his computer at home.

Shen Qi submitted the PDF version of the thesis to the "Mathematics Innovation News", and the next step was to wait.

On the road of advanced mathematics, Shen Qi made great strides forward, but in the field of elementary mathematics, he encountered obstacles.

More than a month has passed, and the "Guidelines for High School Mathematics Problem Solving Skills" promised to the students in the class has not yet been finished.

With this major academic subject in mind, Shen Qi set off for the capital again at the end of October to attend the Golden Autumn Camp of Yenching University as planned.

This YSU Golden Autumn Camp has gathered hundreds of outstanding high school freshmen from all over the country. They have their own strengths, such as proficiency in mathematics, physics, or biochemistry awards.

Or they can write a good essay, or they can play a good song, or they can speak eloquently and be able to host cross talks... All in all, the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea have shown their magical powers. They are the best group of young people in this age group.

YSU is strong in arts and sciences, and has contributed 79 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and 19 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering to the country.

The number of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences at Yanda far exceeds that of the Academy of Engineering. From this data, it can be seen that Yanda is strong in theory and weak in application. Of course, this "weakness" is relative to the university next door.

It is a good choice for students who study literature and science to study at Yanda University. Under the leadership of Jin Qiuying's teacher, Shen Qi visited Yanda University with other students. This was their first lesson after entering the camp.

"Yan University can, it has produced so many famous alumni." Shen Qi lingered on the campus of Yan University, feeling deeply about the profound cultural heritage of this century-old institution.

In front of the Russian Building by the Weiming Lake, the green grass is surrounded by junipers, and the bronze bust of Mr. Li stands here. He is amiable and righteous. He is watching all living beings in front of him. It seems that the New Culture Movement has not ended, and he has not witnessed the revolution. The fruit of victory, with a little regret embedded in his eyes.

Mr. Cai stared at the sky not far away. This bronze statue was carved lifelike. Mr. Cai looked solemn and worried about the country and the people. He witnessed the victory of the revolution, but he did not dare to slack off his national mission of expelling the Japanese invaders.

Teacher Jin Qiuying led the students to review the history of Yanda University, and also introduced some well-known contemporary alumni.

"Niu, our Yanda is a real cow." Shen Qi quickly entered the state, "Yanda can do it" was upgraded to "Our Yanda is a real cow". In this environment and atmosphere, the sense of ownership came into being.

Finally, the main force came to a stone.

The stone is not conspicuous in the lawn, half a meter high, ordinary, no different from the rockery in the park.

But when Shen Qi took a closer look, there was something strange about this unattractive stone.

Small characters are engraved on the stone, "Yan Da Shuimu, friendship evergreen".

"This stone was sent by Shuimu University on the 100th anniversary of the founding of Yanjing University." Jin Qiuying's leading teacher introduced such a simple sentence, then led the team away, and walked towards the cafeteria to prepare for lunch .

"This... is this going to happen?" Shen Qi's heart was cold, he was at Shuimu University after all, teacher, you just took it lightly? You don't talk about the small stories and tidbits behind the stage of "Yanda Shuimu Friendship Evergreen".

After lunch, the humanities education for the students was all over, and the big camp was disbanded and divided into several small camps.

The small camps take subjects as the banner, and the students who are engaged in mathematics are divided into one camp, and the students who are engaged in physics, chemistry, literature and history, and special talents form a separate camp.

Each professional camp is supervised by professional teachers from Yanda University. The trainees will receive 20 days of training, which will be interspersed with some professional tests and comprehensive tests.

There are more than 20 students in the mathematics camp, and there is only one channel for them to enter the camp——mathematics competition.

There are many types of math competitions, and Shen Qi is taking the most advanced route, the champion of the Math Federation and the IMO champion. He has already signed a contract with Yanda University, and he will definitely report to the Department of Mathematics of Yanda University in September next year. The same is true for other students.

The nature of Yanda Golden Autumn Camp is similar to the preparatory class, which is a period of education between high school and undergraduate.

For the recommended students, they don’t need to take the college entrance examination, they play at home by themselves, and if they fail to play well, they come to Yanda to receive education in advance, and it is necessary to maintain their enthusiasm for learning and the correct direction of learning.

In the math camp, Shen Qi met an acquaintance, his teammate Zhou Yu'an in the Mathematical Olympiad National Team.

The two patted their shoulders, beat their chests, and greeted each other affectionately. They had won the IMO team championship together, and they were both invited by Yanda. Of the other four teammates of the national team, three went to the next door, and one chose to study abroad.

"Shen Qi, we haven't seen each other for several months since we left in London, what have you been up to in the past few months?" Zhou Yu'an asked.

Shen Qi said: "I'm not busy with anything, I just wrote a mathematics paper, how about you?"

"That's amazing my brother, do you have any other hobbies besides studying?" Zhou Yu'an sighed endlessly, "I was born in sorrow and died in peace. After I brought back the IMO team champion from the UK, my whole spirit suddenly relaxed. At home, I chased and played games, hey, I am already a useless dog, and I even forgot how to solve the simplest differential equation. If I don’t come to Yanda for re-education, I may be terminated.”

Shen Qi said heartbrokenly: "Zhou Yu'an, you are such a useless dog. You have forgotten how to solve the differential equation. The national team is ashamed of you. Besides, I have many hobbies. You may not be able to beat me when playing games. What level are you, do you need me to take you to fly?"

Zhou Yu'an said weakly: "Xingyao 2..."

Shen Qi's heart ached more and more: "Spicy chicken, only Xingyao 2, I have already become the king."

He failed the math test, and his rank in the game was not as high as him. Zhou Yuan quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Shen Qi, what is the topic of your math paper and where is it published?"

""Mathematics Innovation Journal", the title is "Some new solutions to second-order constant coefficient linear inhomogeneous differential equations."

"Fuck... I even forgot how to solve the differential equation, but you published related papers in professional journals. I worked so hard to get to Xingyao 2, but you easily became the king. Life is already so difficult, Shen Qi Why did you cause critical damage to me as soon as we met?"
