Shen Qi shook hands with Russian player Peter, this handsome blonde guy is amazing, with three consecutive perfect scores, tying the IMO historical record.

The two could not communicate in a language that they were both proficient in, gesticulating, hugging, and walking away.

Finally, the leader of the jury team, Wiles, made a concise concluding speech, and the IMO was successfully concluded.

"Hello Shen Qi, I'm a reporter from QQ News in the UK, can I interview you a few words?" a Chinese reporter approached Shen Qi and wanted to do a simple interview.

"It's not a live broadcast. Shen Qi found that there was only this reporter's young lady and did not see the photography teacher.

"We generally don't broadcast IMO live, and mainly focus on picture + text report manuscripts. 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 an IMO, setting a record for Chinese players, so what is the story behind your total score of 42+1?"

"I'll explain that. Shen Qi said, "In fact, there are four people who won the first place in the gold medal, including me, all of whom have a perfect score of 42 points. The reason why Professor Wiles, the head of the judges, gave me 42+1 instead of 43 because this +1 does not count towards my personal valid score, and the extra innovation award I received was a windfall. ”

Shen Qi showed his additional rewards, a certificate, a book.

The certificate is the Innovation Award certificate, and the strange thing is that the book has no author's name on the cover, no publisher information, only one title, "Beautiful-Language".

Turning to the title page of the book, Shen Qi pointed to a signed "Andrew-Wiles" and said: "The title of this book translated into Chinese should be called "Beautiful Language", which cannot be bought on the market because it has not been published at all." This is a book that Professor Wiles printed at his own expense, and he gave it to me as a reward for the Innovation Award. I love this gift and will study it when I get home. ”

The female reporter had a camera around her neck, she took a picture of Shen Qi, and then asked, "Last question, do you have a favorite university?"

"Little sister, guess?"

"Huh?"

"Actually, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and now I finally have a general direction, and I have decided to study in China as an undergraduate, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I can continue my studies at a foreign university. ”

"Then I wish you all the best. ”

At the end of the interview, Shen Qi returned to the hotel with the team to pack his luggage and prepare to return to China.

The system prompts: "Congratulations to the host for his new achievements, and the international mathematics olympiad ranks first individually!" 15,000 points will be awarded to the top students, multiplied by the main talent coefficient of mathematics 2, and the actual reward value is 30,000 points." The balance is 89873 points, please confirm with the host. ”

Whether it is in reality or in the system, Shen Qi has gained a lot through this IMO, including gold medals, honors, and academic points.

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

On the last day of July, the Chinese Olympiad team left London and returned to China.

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

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

Host, Shen Qi

Age, 17

Mathematics Level 6 (0/150,000)

Physics Level 1 (0/1000)

Chemistry Level 1 (0/1000)

Creature Level 1 (0/1000)

Language 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 student points: 39873 points

Level 6 and Level 7 require 150,000 Xueba points, and the more Xueba points are required to upgrade in the future, 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 the top students in the university may have done him.

In fact, when he was in the UK, Shen Qi had been thinking about a problem, that is, the language problem.

When you go abroad, you know how important it is to master a foreign language.

will only say "hello, thank you, big brother", like a fool.

This happens to meet a good-looking foreign girl, and I can't communicate with others in depth.

Also, Professor Wiles's book is written in English, and I can't read it.

With a small investment, Shen Qi took out 1,000 points to smash English and smash English to level 2.

System: "Congratulations to the host for upgrading their English to Level 2, and the host's perception of English has been significantly improved compared to the previous level." ”

Shen Qi: "Mathematics, you have strengthened so many ability indicators for me, and English has strengthened a perception?"

System: "Yes. ”

Shen Qi: "No. ”

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

At that time, it seemed to be a prompt, but Shen Qi didn't pay attention, a few months ago his energy was all about mathematics.

Now that the IMO is over, Shen Qi can spare his energy to take care of other disciplines.

Woo woo, the plane flew all the way east, arriving at the airport of the Chinese capital.

Without leaving the capital airport to transfer directly to domestic flights, Shen Qi arrived in Nangang City on the morning of August 1.

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, and then went to the capital to participate in the national competition, was selected for the national training team, and went to the United Kingdom to play an international competition.

"Mom, I want to kill you!"

"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 went home in the car.

"Shen Qi, you are famous now, the International Olympiad champion, do you know, my mobile phone has been blown up in the past few days, and I went to charge 1,000 yuan for the phone bill. Shen Zhishan complained that the phone bill was too expensive, and his face was full of pride and pride.

"This is the truth, Shen Qi, you are on the news, there is an interview with you on QQ News, and all the top 10 universities in China have found your father. Fan Yunxia said that 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 in a month. Shen Qi didn't say the answer immediately, but he said it with a resolute attitude.

Fan Yunxia asked, "Oh, what are you going to do this month?"

"Practice?"

"What kind of exercises?"

"Miraculous. ”

"Don't mess around, Shen Qi, you finally got some results, can you be honest?"

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

Shen Qi's so-called cultivation of divine skills is actually learning English.

The English dictionary is not in my hand, Martin Luther King's "I-have-a-dream" is put in the headphones, Pu Shu Xu Wei's song is not listening, and I listen to Maroon5 and Norah Jones instead, "Game of Thrones" is watched again, this time the version has no Chinese subtitles, only English subtitles...... With the support of Level 2 English perception, Shen Qi's English practical level has greatly improved, and he began to read the book "Beautiful Language" written by Wiles.

To be honest, Wiles's writing is not good, that is, the level of writing that can explain things clearly.

But this book is full of dry goods, which belongs to the nature of Wyles's autobiography + mathematical essay combination.

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

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

He said that mathematics depends on geniuses, but geniuses must be surrounded by mentors and friends, and the collision of ideas produces great results.

Academically, he was most grateful to his mentor Coates, who guided him in proving the elliptic curves of complex multiplication, which gave him the courage to attack Fermat's theorem and eventually win the Fields Medal...... So mathematics is the most beautiful language. (End of book)

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

I went to Peking University for undergraduate, and I will talk about it later after graduate school.

The name of Peking University is not as good as Tsinghua University, but their mathematics major is the first in China, and the collision of ideas produces great results.

"Peking University is okay, this is not a stalk but the real situation, don't laugh, Dad, can you be serious? ”
