The news of the three entering the national team came on July 2. In fact, after the end of the college entrance examination, the national training team organized 60 members of the training team for a ten-day intensive training, but later the results of the college entrance examination in various provinces and cities across the country were announced one after another, and many members of the training team also participated in this year's college entrance examination, so there was a pause for a few days in the middle, giving students enough time to complete the inquiry results and fill in the volunteers and other related things.

Then, on June 30th, all the 60 students who participated in the national team training returned to the imperial capital Yanjing again, after two consecutive days of training, on the morning of the third day, that is, on the 3rd of July, the test was immediately carried out, and the content of the test was still based on the knowledge points taught during the training camp, combined with the IMO common test question type, the 60 students were inspected, in order to select the final six-member national team members.

The test lasted for more than four hours, and in the afternoon after the test, all the candidates' results had been corrected. In this exam, Zhang Xingchen, who was pinned on by all teachers, still lived up to expectations, and was successfully selected for the national team with the first overall score, and won the fourth heavyweight first place after the provincial selection competition, CMO examination and college entrance examination.

Zheng Tongya and Shen Lei, who are also from Jinling Middle School, also played well, Zheng Tongya is still the second place, always playing the role of the second millennium, while Shen Lei played a little poorly and did not get the third place, but still squeezed into the final list of the national team with the fifth place.

So far, three of the four students from Jinling Middle School who have entered the training team have been successfully selected for the national team, accounting for half of the national team in this mathematics competition.

In contrast, Jinling Middle School's biggest competitor in the province, Jinda High School, this mathematics competition can be said to be fruitless, the only student who entered the national team training, in this test, only scored 36th, it can be said that it was completely defeated by Jinling Middle School.

Not only did it return home in the mathematics competition, but the High School Affiliated to Jinda University also faced the embarrassing situation of being comprehensively suppressed by Jinling Middle School in this year's college entrance examination. Among the top ten middle schools in the province, Jinda High School only occupies one of the places, compared with the four places in Jinling Middle School, Jinda High School can be described as an all-round rout.

Not to mention the champions, Bangyan and Tanhua in science all fell to Jinling Middle School. And Xu Haidong, who has always wanted to prove himself in the math competition and even the college entrance examination, finally realized how strong his opponent was at this moment, and the fear of Tao Li in his heart can be said to have risen to the extreme.

After learning that he had entered the national team, Zhang Xingchen immediately called Tao Li to share the good news, because the national team will have a special team leader teacher in charge of these six national team members, so Tao Li and Chen Tianxiang don't have to go to Yanjing to meet them.

This year's IMO was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from July 12th to July 23rd, with the opening ceremony on July 17th, two days of exams on 18 and 19, and the rest of the time to participate in various activities organized by the organizers.

Although I can't go there in person to guide them to prepare for the IMO exam, Tao Li prepared relevant review materials and review methods for them as early as when they first entered the national team training camp, so Tao Li didn't have to worry that they would not be able to take the exam. In fact, the IMO exam question type is exactly the same as the CMO, and the CMO even surpasses the IMO in terms of exam difficulty, which is why the Chinese national team can always get good results in the IMO.

On July 5th, Jinling Middle School organized students to return to school to confirm their volunteers, which is also the last chance for all senior high school students to swagger into the campus.

After confirming the end of the volunteers, all the students of Class 18 organized by Ren Changjiang to hold a thank-you banquet in a hotel in the city, which was attended by all the teachers of various subjects, including Tao Li. This teacher appreciation banquet was proposed by Zhang Xingchen to be organized a few days after the results of the college entrance examination were announced, and the students naturally had no opinion and passed it unanimously.

But because Zhang Xingchen was all busy with the IMO national team, he handed it over to Ren Changjiang for the next planning and organization, from the selection of hotels to the budget, Ren Changjiang and several classmates in the class participated in the whole planning, which led to this almost perfect thank-you banquet.

Since it was a dinner party, and this was the last opportunity to gather all the students and teachers, drinking was naturally inevitable, and although Tao Li was not strong enough to drink, he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses in such an atmosphere. After drinking too much, they naturally let go, and many students, especially girls, cried sadly because they would not be able to see these teachers in the future.

Fortunately, Wang Zijing, who was an English teacher at the time, also went, otherwise, in this kind of situation where a girl cried, Tao Li really didn't know what to do with straight male cancer.

After the last thing of the third year of high school, Tao Li can finally rest for a while, and in a few days he will be busy building a school for the orphanage, and it is estimated that this matter will consume more energy, enough for him to eat a pot.

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Unlike the 35-degree heat in July, Rio de Janeiro is in autumn, so the maximum temperature there is only 27 degrees, which is very pleasant, and it is very suitable to host an IMO here.

Six students of the Chinese national team, under the leadership of the team leader, arrived in Brazil on July 10. Because I have to go back in time and get used to the local environment, it is necessary to arrive two days in advance.

Over the next few days, Zhang Xingchen and his team participated in various activities held by the organizers, including a series of icebreaker tours and tasted the most characteristic Brazilian barbecue in the region.

And the time has slowly come to July 18th, this IMO has officially entered the theme, hundreds of players from all over the world gathered together, began the IMO competition, which lasted two days, in Zhang Xingchen's opinion, and the previous CMO is no different, although this IMO test questions, known as the most difficult in the history of IMO, but Zhang Xingchen feels that it is not so exaggerated, at least compared with their usual training, there are still some gaps.

Of course, such a difficult training is still rewarding, after the end of the two-day examination, the Huaxia team also achieved good results, among the six people, five people won the gold medal, one won the silver medal, and among the five people who won the gold medal, Zhang Xingchen was the only one to get a perfect score! And the Huaxia team also won the first place in the team.

It can be said that this IMO has once again become a stage for Chinese people.
