Chapter 395: I Am Me
"What? What are they doing?
Eat? When the hell is it? Do you still have the heart to eat?
So many people are waiting for them, and they're still eating? Isn't there any shame at all?
Are Koreans so unreasonable?" Mike, the captain of the team led by Mi Guo, stood up angrily and said.
Everyone in the room turned blue with anger.
That's too rude, isn't it?
After waiting for another ten minutes or so, these people were late.
Kim Jae-ho is the captain of South Korea this time.
He held a toothpick in his mouth and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry to keep you waiting."
I heard that Chinese food is good, but I tried it today, how can I say it? That's it, it's not as good as our Korean cuisine. The smoked chicken, in particular, was a little stuffy. ”
Although he said that he was apologizing, his expression did not have the attitude that he should have when he was late.
Obviously the food is very good, but he says that the Chinese food is not very good.
"Captain Kim, I would like to remind you that it is rude to have everyone wait for you.
If you continue to do this, I'm afraid we'll disqualify you next year. Mike said angrily.
"I'm sorry Mr. Mack, but the organizing committee doesn't say that if you are late, you will be disqualified.
We are also for the good of everyone, so that everyone can fully prepare, so as not to win after the deadline, blame us for not knowing how to be polite. Kim Jae-ho said contemptuously.
The reason why he said this is because South Korea has won the championship for two consecutive years.
That's what they're proud of.
"Hmph, you don't know until you've tried it. RB leader Kawaguchi said.
The rules of the game are also quite simple, with each team having their own questions.
All contestants answered.
One point for the correct answer, one point for the wrong answer, and no points for the non-answer.
The total score for the juvenile and adult groups was then calculated separately.
The winner is chosen, and then the two sets of scores want to be added to get the final score.
Then the overall winner is chosen.
The first to compete was naturally the junior group.
The four teams will answer the questions separately, and 40 people will answer them separately.
The first to come up with the question is the United States team.
Huaxia is doing well.
Scored nine points.
Only Li Xiaole, the player, did not answer.
Several other countries are doing similarly.
South Korea scored nine points, United States scored 10 points, and RB had one person who answered incorrectly and scored eight points.
So far, the highest in the United States.
The score wasn't pulled away too much.
Li Guoyu looked at Li Xiaole with murderous eyes.
He shook his head at the others and said, "Alas, there are no good seedlings this time, especially this player named Li Xiaole, who is this?
"yes, there are fewer and fewer people who like math. ”
Li Xiaole looked at the captain's eyes and listened to what he said, his face was a little pale.
Next, RB, South Korea, and China will be asked separately.
RB out of the question.
Huaxia performed well, scoring 10 points.
All the contestants got it right.
RB scored 10 points this time, South Korea scored 9 points, and Mi Guo scored 8 points.
At present, the total score is 19 points for Huaxia, 18 points for RB, 18 points for Mi country, and 18 points for South Korea.
China is one point ahead of other countries.
Next is South Korea's question, South Korea scored 10 points, Mi Guo scored 9 points, RB scored 9 points, and Huaxia scored 10 points.
In the third round, Huaxia scored 29 points, RB 27 points, South Korea 28 points, and Mi Guo 27 points.
Huaxia's performance is still good.
There was a little girl in Mi who made mistakes twice in a row and cried in a hurry.
Mike smiled as the captain and said: "Alice, you have performed very well, you are the best, it doesn't matter, your performance is already very good, the next is the Chinese people, don't you like the Chinese culture very much?"
I'm sure you can. ”
RB is also cheering all the players on.
"Kawaguchi-sensei, I'm really sorry, I just answered a question incorrectly. ”
"It's not your fault, everyone has failures, I hope you can cheer up, RB people are not afraid of failure, your performance of answering the wrong questions is something that everyone will have, but now your depressed expression really disappoints me, RB people should be fearless, not afraid of any difficulties and obstacles, I hope you don't become a cowardly man, in that case, it really disappoints me." ”
Chinese.
Li Guoyu nodded and said: "These people in the youth group are actually worth cultivating, except for Li Xiaole who lost a point, so far, he has not lost any points."
Next is Huaxia himself, and we have already trained these people.
If there are no accidents, it should be ten.
So we have 39 points, and even if all other countries get 10, we have the most. ”
"Your performance is very good, only Li Xiaole has lost a point, you must pay attention, maybe you can relax a little, because the next question is Huaxia, which should be within the range we give."
Next, I will never allow you to make mistakes, this year I want the championship, and if anyone fails, I will settle accounts with you. ”
Because it is also a recording program, Li Dabao is also offstage.
This is a show that is broadcast live around the world.
He also heard Li Guoyu's lecture to these primary and secondary school students, and he couldn't stand it anymore.
How old are these students?
It's just a small game, it's not a big deal.
Why do you put so much pressure on them?
Until now, Li Xiaole's face is still pale.
If you go on like this, it's easy to freak out your child. Does this really serve its purpose?
Li Gangyu continued to preach: "If anyone makes a mistake again, I will make you look good, you don't have to think about developing in mathematics in the future, maybe you don't understand what I said, but when you grow up, you will understand what I mean." ”
A short break began.
The exam questions have been sent out.
All of them began to answer.
After reading the question, a little girl named Guo Xiaomei was pale and had tears in her eyes.
She didn't even know how to do this question.
Li Gangyu's murderous eyes swept over and motioned for her to write quickly, she lowered her head and wrote.
On the topic of Huaxia, players from all over the world are shaking their heads.
Mike said: "Huaxia's topics are notoriously difficult, and it is said that the topics of their high school are the same as those of our university, and all the high school qualifications in Huaxia are the same as those of our university.
Every time Huaxia asks a question, it is the key to opening up the results.
The Chinese people are very tricky in solving the question, and I doubt that the person who wrote the question can solve this problem. ”
"Now the Chinese people are ahead, and they are the ones who make the problem, and they now have an absolute advantage. ”
This time it took a lot of time for everyone.
It took about twenty minutes for the question to be completed.
The scores are also counted, eight points for South Korea, seven points for RB, eight points for Mi country, and five points for Huaxia.
Guo Xiaomei and Li Xiaole did something wrong.
One player did not answer.
So far, the total score of Huaxia is 35 points, RB 34 points, South Korea 36 points, and Mi Guo 35 points.
South Korea is ahead with 36 points, followed by Huaxia and Mi Guo with 35 points each, and RB is in last place with 34 points.
After the game, Li Gangyu was furious.
"Didn't I tell you everything? If you are not sure, don't do it, do you know your mistakes, what is the price to pay? The price is that we lost the competition in the youth group for half a year, and all the hard work for half a year was in vain, and we were all ruined by a few of you, haven't we all done this type of question?" Li Gangyu scolded.
Guo Xiaomei and Li Xiaole cried with pale faces, they were frightened by Li Gangyu.
After all, they're just teenagers.
Where has this formation been experienced?
"I'll settle accounts with you when I go back. Li Gangyu glanced at everyone and said.
Then I went to prepare the questions for the adult group.
All the contestants were scared to death, especially Guo Xiaomei and Li Xiaole, and everyone comforted them.
"Let's go, let's go and watch the competition of the senior group, if the senior group wins, Mr. Li may not care about our junior group.
After all, the junior category is not the highlight of the competition.
It's the senior competition that's all that matters. ”
"Hello audience, the excitement of this competition has just begun, and the adult group of the China, Japan, South Korea and the United States Mathematics Competition has officially begun. The host said enthusiastically.
The difference between the adult group and the junior group is that the adult group is a four-country question at the same time, and then the total score is calculated.
Kim Jae-ho had a contemptuous smile on his lips.
This time they won South Korea, and it was going to be a blockbuster.
This time, everyone will be on their knees to worship South Korea's achievements in mathematics.
All of them have finished answering.
All of them noticed a strange phenomenon.
The question from the Korean organizing committee turned out to be very strange.
Basically, no one has been able to answer the question.
But the Koreans wrote all the answers.
Not counting the Korean topic.
China scored 28 points, Mi scored 27 points, RB scored 27 points, and South Korea scored 25 points.
None of the other three countries were able to answer, as long as the Korean players wrote the answers, but they didn't know if they were correct or not.
Mike said: "I asked South Korea to change the topic, which we haven't seen before. This is simply an unsolvable problem. ”
Kim Jae-ho sneered: "You won't, it's just an unsolvable problem?
But it's no wonder that this problem has not been solved for more than 200 years, but it is quite simple for us in Korea, and all the contestants have answered it.
We, the Korean nation, are the greatest nation, and none of you can do it. ”
"What, Kim Jae-ho, what do you mean by that? Why don't you play according to the routine? You guys are simply violating the rules, and I've studied this kind of problem before, and no one can solve this problem at all.
Li Guoyu said loudly.
"Huaxia people are so rude, they can't unravel what they don't understand. Kim Jae-ho said nonchalantly.
"Hmph, that's not in the scope of this expedition at all. Kawaguchi also said dissatisfied.
No one expected such a thing to happen.
The problem from South Korea turned out to be a mathematical problem that has puzzled all mathematicians in the world for more than 200 years: twin primes.
Such a topic, let alone these people, even if scientists from all over the world are invited, they will not solve this problem.
And in such a short period of time.
This time they were clearly cheating, and they had been playing this trick for several years in a row.
However, a few years ago, they did not answer the question, and players from other countries wrote the answers, and the results can be imagined.
This year, it's going to be this one again.
Speaking of previous years, South Korea's means of winning the championship were not very glamorous.
Got everyone's criticism.
But they don't care, as long as they win, they don't care what means they use.
"Hmph, we didn't answer the question, you wrote all the answers, Kim Jae-ho, you think clearly, if you answer wrong, you will be deducted ten points. No one has solved it in two hundred years, are you really sure you got it right?" Kawaguchi scoffed.
Kim Jae-ho said: "Hmph, I am the most powerful mathematician in Korea, and I have published articles on twin primes in South Korea.
The Korean jury, after seven days and seven nights of calculations, has proven the correctness of this proof.
The outside world doesn't pay attention to the affairs of our Korean nation, which is why they suffer this loss.
This time, the Korean nation won. ”
All of them had ugly faces.
If that's the case, the other four countries seem to have been tricked again.
However, it is clear that this is very unlikely.
"But if you want to get a definite verification, will it take more than ten days to know if the twin primes are correct?" Kawaguchi said.
"Isn't the calculation of the Korean nation for seven days and seven nights enough to prove the correctness of this question?" Kim Jae-ho said suspiciously.
"No, according to international practice, it must be verified by a national jury before it counts. Li Guoyu said with a dark face.
He looked at the group of teenagers, particularly disappointed.
Privately complaining about who the organizing committee is looking for?
If nothing else, Huaxia will definitely be able to win the championship this time.
If you don't lose those five points, it's better to win.
"Hmph, I knew that you people would cheat, and before the competition, I had already handed over the information to the jury of various countries.
I believe the results will come out soon. Kim Jae-ho scoffed.
The national jury has been empirically completed.
News came from the jury of the United States.
"The twin primes have been cracked by the Koreans, and the results are correct. ”
News came from the Huaxia jury.
"The twin primes have been cracked. ”
The RB jury also got the news: "The mathematical puzzle that has plagued all mathematicians for two hundred years has been solved. ”
Kim Jae-ho laughed and said, "Hahaha, I told you, you just don't admit it, what is happening now? Isn't it still our Korean nation that won the first place?"
Everyone present was silent, this Korean is too shameless.
How could all the ten Koreans present understand what twin primes are?
It's definitely all memorized answers.
Then I copied it step by step.
In fact, among these countries, perhaps only China has not done too badly.
If it is from your own country, basically all of them are full marks, only Huaxia is not like this.
Only when you do the questions in your own country lose the most points.
