Yang Xiaoman looked at the prediction question above, and his brows have not been stretched since the beginning, when did this guy upgrade to a prophet?

But...

There is a bit of truth in this guy's analysis, just take the prediction of the first question, through the analysis of probability, there is indeed a 70% probability that he guessed correctly.

"Hey!"

"Don't sleep!" Yang Xiaoman pushed Xu Mang, who was lying on the table, and asked with a serious face: "Tell me about your guessing process." ”

Xu Mang looked at Xiao Man in confusion with his fighting eyelids, and said, "What are you doing?"

“...”

Looking at Xu Mang's state at this time, he knew that no matter how anxious he was, it was useless, so he simply waited for him to regain his senses.

After a few minutes,

Xu Mang woke up from his drowsy state and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"Is your prediction accurate?" Yang Xiaoman asked.

"I don't know. ”

"Predicting this kind of thing... You get the idea. Xu Mang hit a hatch and said silently: "If it's accurate, is it still called a prediction?"

"Probably?"

"Uh..."

"Fifty percent sure. Xu Mang hit another Hatche: "Have you eaten?"

Yang Xiaoman: (# ̄~ ̄#)

Fifty percent...

That's a high probability, okay!

You must know that if you can guess a question correctly, you will make a lot of money!

"Tell me how did this fifty percent come about?" Yang Xiaoman pointed to the first question: "Take the first question as an example!"

"Fifty percent..."

"Guess right and don't guess right, a 1 in 2 probability. Xu Mang smiled and said, "Fifty percent!"

Yang Xiaoman: (* ̄〈 ̄)

Am I an idiot when I am a mother?

Don't want to live, do you?

afterwards

Xu Mang followed Xiao Man to the hotel's restaurant, and dined with Professor Wu and the other four people, Xu Mang doesn't like to eat Lao Mei's dishes very much, because Lao Mei often uses fruits to cook, such as pineapple baked ham, apple roast turkey...

This is similar to Xiao Man's dark cuisine, in short, Xu Mang is unacceptable.

Grilling steak is Xu Mang's only choice, and almost Xu Mang has contracted the job of eating steak alone, not to mention... Yang Xiaoman sometimes envies Xu Mang very much, because he can't get fat no matter how much he eats, this kind of person hates it the most, and he can't wait to kill him!

"Professor Wu. ”

Xu Mang predicted the ten most difficult questions. Yang Xiaoman said: "Or... Tell you about it later?"

Professor Wu was stunned for a moment, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Prediction?"

"Yes!"

"The first question is his prediction. Yang Xiaoman began to explain Xu Mang's prediction to everyone.

It took half an hour, and basically talked about everything, but everyone was full of doubts about it, although some of the topics have some truth, but some are really nonsense, unless the brains of the questioners are on the buttocks.

"Basically impossible. Lan Xiaoai said seriously: "I think this is pure nonsense, Xiao Man... You can't lose your mind because of love, tomorrow is the game, you have to be sober. ”

"Yes, yes!" Shi Jie said: "Xiaoman, you are the hope of our team, you must not overturn." ”

afterwards

Ye Ziqi and Li Wei expressed the same opinion, agreeing that Xu Mang's prediction is nonsense and has no scientific basis at all.

Everyone's reaction made Yang Xiaoman very unhappy, but because of the situation, he didn't attack on the spot.

night

It's always so fast.

Xu Mang was lying on the bed, playing the tense and exciting Glory of Kings, with his super personal strength, Xu Mang led his teammates to a failed situation.

"Ugh..."

"I was scolded again. Xu Mang sighed, looked up and saw Yang Xiaoman looking at the topic, which was exactly what he guessed blindly.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Didn't you say you wouldn't watch it?" asked Xu Mang curiously.

"I can't get angry!"

Turning his head, Xiao Man looked at Xu Mang: "Why do they deny you?"

“...”

"So you're annoyed by this?" Xu Mang said helplessly: "Normal, after all, predicting this kind of thing is similar to buying lottery tickets to predict numbers, and there are always many more scammers than masters." ”

"Humph!"

"In front of ability, you are a master in my eyes, and in front of love, you are a liar in my eyes!" Yang Xiaoman glared at him and said viciously: "Hurry up and let me punch me, I'm angry with my mother." ”

Xu Mang: Embarrassed

This...

It's too domineering!

I didn't do anything, and I had to be beaten again for no reason.

"Hey!"

"Xiao Man... Can we be reasonable?" Xu Mang said helplessly: "Obviously they are angry with you, why is it always me who has been injured?"

"Beat them up and go to jail. Yang Xiaoman glanced at it: "Beat you up... I'll raise you. ”

Xu Mang was speechless for a while, and she couldn't find any problems with her words.

...

Following

Professor Wu took Xu Mang and Xiaoman to the competition site, and to Xu Mang's surprise, the so-called international competition is a bit rudimentary, and its scale is far less than that of domestic provincial competitions.

"Professor?"

"This... Can't we get in?" Xu Mang looked at the guarded gate and asked with a confused expression, "This environment is too closed, right?"

"This is the international competition. Professor Wu said, "Don't complain about anything. ”

"Oh..."

Xu Mang glanced at the time, there was still half an hour to start, and he didn't know if Xiao Man and her four teammates were nervous now.

Never mind

Life and death are life, wealth is in the sky!

Alas?

Isn't this the person of our face?

How to stand over there?

Xu Mang saw a 'own person' face, and he didn't hesitate to walk towards the young man.

"Hello!" Xu Mang asked, "Chinese?"

"No!"

"I'm an American. The young man spoke broken Mandarin and smiled at Xu Mang, "Are you from Huaguo?"

"Hmm!"

"I'm sorry... I thought you were Chinese. Xu Mang said embarrassedly: "I am the assistant coach of the Huaguo team. ”

"Hello!"

"The head coach of the American team. The young man said with a smile.

it!

The head coach of the national team?

This doesn't look very old, so he became the head coach?

"I... Twenty-one years old. ”

"Thirty-two years old. ”

Xu Mang was stunned for a moment, he was really young... I can't see thirty-two, but it looks like it's about twenty-five.

soon

Xu Mang relied on his cheekiness to get acquainted with the head coach of the American team, of course, Xu Mang's purpose was very simple, let go of his own body, and learn some of their mathematical concepts from this young professor.

Perhaps in the eyes of many netizens, this is very embarrassing, but in Xu Mang's eyes, academic exchanges are never ashamed.

It is commonly known as crossing the river by touching the eagle sauce.

"Professor?"

"How did you become the head coach?" asked Xu Mang curiously.

Hearing Xu Man's words, the professor said in broken Chinese: "My philosophy is that I don't want any grades, I just want to teach students mathematics, so that they know what they can study and what they are good at in the future." ”

"Exactly... The idea of the American Mathematical Association matched mine, so I became the head coach. The young Star Island professor said.

This explains...

In fact, Xu Mang was not satisfied, because they were all polite words.

It seems that the feelings are still not deep enough!

Affection needs to be increased.

"Professor, wait a minute!"

"Wait for me for five minutes!"

Words fall,

Xu Mang ran out.

Five minutes

Xu Mang hurriedly came to the professor with twice the coffee, and said to the professor, "Drink coffee... It's still hot. ”

The professor was stunned for a moment, and took the coffee handed over by Xu Mang: "Thank you." ”

"Professor?"

"How many awards have you won during your time leading the team?" Xu Mang asked.

"Lead the team for five years. ”

"Get... 3 times 1st in the International Olympiad team, 2nd and 3rd in the 2nd International Olympiad team, 2 PUMaC team 1st, once PUMaC team 3rd. The professor said, "It's not my credit, it's just that I met the right group of students at the right time and received these honors that don't belong to me." ”

"I didn't teach much math to our students, I just instructed them in their attitude. The professor continued, "Math is boring, and how to make it interesting is my job. ”

"We've only had a week of training, but we have 358 days to go, and they're learning it on their own, and if the math is interesting, they'll go back and learn it on their own. The professor said.

Xu Mang nodded, the biggest motivation for progress comes from curiosity, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Interested?

Our interest is not bad!

If we look at the number of students, we are not a few, or even more!

"Uh..."

"What then. Xu Mang said embarrassedly, "Professor, can you share your training method?"

"Yes!" the professor smiled, "There is nothing that cannot be made public, first of all, find a lot of coaches, although I am the head coach, I have a team of more than 30 assistant coaches, these people are very good." ”

Oh!

Attention...

Xu Mang doesn't know much about this concept, but judging from the reactions on the Internet, many netizens said that the education level and difficulty of mathematics have declined in recent years, such as the ban on Olympiad classes.

It is for this reason that the International Mathematics Olympiad has not won a grand prize for many years.

"Professor?"

"Then how do you grasp the key points of training?" Xu Mang took a sip of coffee: "Is there a special, unknown method?"

"One week of intensive training. ”

"Three hundred and fifty-eight days of self-study, relying on the students themselves. The professor said.

A week of training...

Pretty much.

Xiaoman has only been training for a week, but there are not so many teaching assistants.

afterwards

Xu Mang asked a very important question for him.

"Professor?"

"In the past, your country did not do well in the international arena, is there any criticism in China?" Xu Mang said seriously.

The professor smiled: "Ten years ago, our Mathematical Association formulated a standard internally, a criterion for selecting contestants, which is actually a criticism, and we are ranked in the fortieth place. ”

“...”

"What about the public?" Xu asked, "what about the public's critical voice?"

"Uh..."

"No!" the professor shook his head: "They didn't know it happened, we got the first place, they would know, if it wasn't the first place, they wouldn't know, and because of this, there was a lot less pressure on the students." ”

In the next two hours, Xu Mang talked a lot with the professor, and when they parted, Xu Mang knew a lot about the American way of learning mathematics and his views on math competitions.

In this regard,

Xu Mang gained a lot of useful concepts.

According to the professor of Star Island, what really matters is mathematics itself, not the so-called competition, which is just a form to help everyone love mathematics.

And the reason why they suddenly improved to first place for three consecutive years is because they broke through their limitations and won the first place in the team in one competition, and then they thought they had the strength to win the first place.

Interest?

Limitations?

Xu Mang's eyes suddenly lit up, and a new idea came out, which will go back in a few days to come out of the Zhejiang Provincial Olympiad Mathematics Competition questions, you can add these concepts to make the questions more free!

...

The scene of the competition,

Yang Xiaoman is working hard to answer the questions, and he has four hours to do fifty questions, which seems to have a lot of time, but in fact, it is completely insufficient.

At this time, Xiao Man had only completed forty-four questions, but there was only one hour left.

finally

After 20 minutes of hard work, Yang Xiaoman completed all the content of the scoring questions and basic questions, and she was about to face the last five major questions at this time.

There are forty minutes left, and I will do five big questions.

Alas...

Do your best,

Being able to do a question is a question.

Yang Xiaoman sighed, and after seeing the reality clearly, he silently began to read the first question of the five major questions.

Well!

A combination of number theory and geometry!

(°ー°〃) stunned~

Σ(°△°|||) Something seems to have been discovered!

Σ('д′*ノ)ノOh my God!
