CHAPTER XXXIII

The total number of provincial teams in 32 provinces and cities across the country is about 400.

These more than 400 people will participate in the national winter camp for middle school students jointly sponsored by Tsinghua University and Yan University during this year's winter vacation.

By participating in the CMO (Chinese Mathematical Olympiad), six members of the national team will be selected to represent China in the International Mathematical Olympiad to be held in the United States in March next year.

At the same time, students with outstanding performance will be directly qualified for Tsinghua University and Yan University.

…………

Time blinks to the weekend.

According to the arrangement, this day is the day of the commendation meeting of Haicheng No. 1 Middle School.

Generally, this kind of commendation meeting will only be held at the beginning of the new semester to recognize students who have achieved excellent results in the final examination of the previous semester.

Only twice a year.

But this time, the performance of everyone in Haicheng No. 1 Middle School in this year's National High School Mathematics League is too good.

The school will make an exception at this time to hold a commendation meeting again to reward those students who have achieved excellent results in the league.

At this commendation meeting, not only all the teachers and students of the school were present, but even the leaders of the school were all present.

Even beside him, Gu Lu saw a few reporters with cameras and work badges.

The scene was very grand.

Presiding over the commendation meeting was the third-year high school director of teaching, the director Ma with a big face.

In this kind of commendation meeting, the leader's speech is indispensable.

Gu Lu stood at the back of the eighteenth class, standing under the big sun, listening to the hour-long speeches of several leaders in a drowsy manner.

The classmates were no better, one by one with their heads down, their consciousness drowsy.

There were even a few bigwigs who snored just by standing up.

"Now for the third item of the conference, the outstanding students of the competition will be awarded!"

It wasn't until they heard this sentence that the students below came to their senses.

Coming to the stage to receive the award, they don't expect it.

The people who can go up to receive the award are all academic tyrants, and they have no hope at all.

But having the opportunity to observe this group of bigwigs at such a close distance can be regarded as compensation for more than an hour in the underground station of the Great Sun.

"Please come to the stage to receive the award from the students who won the provincial third prize of the league, they are Shi Jiajun from the third class of high school, and the ...... of the third class of high school."

Haicheng No. 1 Middle School has a lot of money, in addition to an honorary certificate, the students who won the provincial third prize also got 500 yuan in cash and three catties of pork.

The second prize is a cash prize of 800 yuan and four pig trotters.

The first prize is a cash prize of 1,000 yuan, and a pig's head.

The reporter clicked and recorded the photos of several classmates holding pigs' heads and smirking.

But on the stage, when Director Ma read the winners of the provincial first prize, he did not mention the names of Bi Qi and Ma Zhengxuan.

Obviously, the rewards for the two of them are even higher.

Director Ma stood on the rostrum and spoke slowly, "In this league, there are two students from our school who have obtained the qualification to enter the provincial team, and now, please come to the stage to receive the award." ”

"They are, Bi Qi from the thirty-eighth class of high school, and Ma Zhengxuan!"

Ma Zhengxuan trotted out of the team and walked onto the rostrum.

But after a few seconds, Bi Qi was nowhere to be seen.

"Bi Qi, Bi Qi!"

"Please come to the stage to receive the award from Bi Qi, a student from the 38th class of high school!"

Director Ma repeated it several times.

In the eighteenth class team, the student standing behind Bi Qi poked Bi Qi in the shoulder, "Bi Qi, your name has been called several times!

"No, I'm afraid the others won't hear my name clearly!" Bi Qi turned his head and smiled at the man, and trotted to the rostrum.

A classmate who was stunned for a long time and reacted: "......"

This guy, who did he learn from such a pretending character.

Bi Qi and Ma Zhixuan were rewarded with 1,500 yuan in cash by the school, as well as 10 catties of pork kidneys.

Then after the commendation meeting, Bi Qi gave Gu Lu ten catties of pig kidneys on the grounds of thanking the teacher.

Gu Lu looked at the ten-catty pork kidneys on the table and fell into deep thought.

Zhou Haihong came back from class with a thermos cup, "Hey, isn't this the pig kidneys that were sent out at the commendation meeting just now, why are you here, Mr. Gu?"

"Bizzie sent it to me. Gu Lu suddenly thought of something, and his words changed, "Teacher Zhou, I can't get this thing alone, why don't you take it home?"

"Then I...... You're welcome?" Zhou Haihong silently glanced at the wolfberries soaked in the thermos cup, a little moved.

"You're welcome, you're welcome. ”

…………

In the evening, Gu Lu returned to the rented apartment.

After sitting on the sofa and lying down for a while, Gu Lu came to the study and turned on the computer.

The paper submitted to the "Mathematical and Physical Letters" has been confirmed to be included.

However, it is estimated that the specific publication will not be until the end of the year.

The number of SCI papers under Gu Lu's name as the first author has also reached eight.

Five of them are in the second district and three are in the third district.

There are at least ten months left before the completion of the system's current main quest.

Gu Lu's arrangement is to challenge the SCI Zone 1 paper in these ten months.

At the beginning of the school year, he has completed two side quests, and with the usual tempering, the attribute values in his system panel have increased by at least ten points on average.

Don't underestimate these ten points.

You must know that the average of the six attributes of ordinary people is only about fifty points.

The most important reasoning power for mathematics is about to reach level 3.

At this level, Gu Lu felt that it would be difficult to complete a district paper in ten months, but it would not be too great.

This can't bother Gu Lu.

What bothers Gu Lu is that until now, he has not been able to determine the topic of the new paper.

Differential geometry, algebraic geometry, Riemannian manifolds and Lorentz manifolds, homogeneous spaces, and symmetrical spaces in geometry. Algebraic Number Theory, Analytic Number Theory, Diophantine Diagram Analysis, Transcendence Model......

These are the directions that he is very good at.

So much so that he entered the choice difficulty for a while.

It seems that no matter which direction he chooses, Gu Lu can easily write a paper.

Sure enough, it's too good, and sometimes it's a kind of annoyance.

After thinking about it late at night, he decided on the direction of his dissertation.

He wanted to study something challenging, and the Cohen-Lenstra conjecture in algebraic number theory was a good choice for now.

There are many conjectures in number theory, the big ones are the Riemann conjecture, the Goldbach conjecture is these, and the small ones are also a lot of conjectures without even names.

The Cohen-Lenstra conjecture is a well-known conjecture in the direction of algebraic number theory.

Although the difficulty is not on the same level as the world-famous conjectures such as the Riemann conjecture, it is not the kind that can be easily solved by a random mathematician with some time.

Once you have decided on the direction of your dissertation, the next step is to buy some supporting professional books.

Some books can be bought directly in China, and Gu Lu can directly place an order online.

There are still a few books, which are not sold in China, so Gu Lu can only contact friends abroad and send them back.

As soon as he finished playing all this, there was a sudden dinging sound in Gu Lu's mind.

Ding——!

[Side Quest: Prove the Cohen-Lenstra Conjecture in 5 Months!]

[Reward: Space +10, Insight +10]

Gu Lu sighed helplessly.

It is estimated that the ten months of paper writing time will be compressed to half.

If I had known, I would not have chosen the Cohen-Lenstra conjecture as the research direction for my next paper.
