The game was extremely tense.

With the birth of the top three, the pressure on all the players rose in an instant.

The live broadcast continues:

"No. 4, No. 1 player, Cuckoo, 2 minutes and 10 seconds, from Harvard University!"

"No. 5, No. 2 player, Miao Miao, with a time of 2 minutes and 15 seconds, is from Chenhua University!"

……

The heads of the players are "buzzing", and their psychological pressure at this time is completely different from before the competition, and before the competition may just be an inexplicable heartbeat and a sense of nervousness. At this time, there is a kind of self-inferiority mentality, and many players will suddenly become panicked in their hearts, and faintly doubt themselves and question their lives. Of course, in this moment of the game, the nervous and impatient mentality occupies the main position.

Just imagine, I just came to the challenge area from the big screen, Li Fan has already completed the challenge, I just tore open the prop package, and I raised my hand to push a few sliders, but the second place was suddenly produced!

Okay, I'm not as good as number one, okay, I'm not as good as number two, okay, I'm not as good as number three...... Damn, I can't even get into the top 20!!

The 100 people present are all proud of the sky, some are from the Huaguo High IQ Club, and many are the top students in the college entrance examination in various provinces and cities, many people have grown up drinking "sweet words" from childhood to adulthood, and have been in a state of being looked up to, so everyone is naturally full of self-confidence.

As a result, at this moment, the geniuses of Huaguo gathered together, and they were directly turned into scum by the players in front of them, this huge psychological gap is quite a test, and many players play abnormally because of this.

And the most annoying thing is that in addition to the staff constantly reporting the rankings and dozens of referees in black roaming around, the host Jia Yun also kept chatting.

Jia Yun: "Li Fan, are you satisfied with the results just now?"

"It's okay. ”

"How difficult do you think this question is?"

"It's okay. ”

"Which of these six abilities do you think will be your biggest weakness?"

"Calculate, uh, and observe!"

……

Some contestants glanced at the middle of the stage, and gritted their teeth in anger, your grandmother's legs, can you not speak?

Guest Seats:

Talking Chen (Doctor Chen): "This is a stressful environment deliberately created by the program team, from stage lighting to live music, from the black-clad sunglasses referee to the host, it will subconsciously affect the mentality of the contestants. ”

Wang Mu pouted: "You guys are so ruthless, we are an intellectual challenge, a mental competition, there is no need!"

Nag Chen: "No, it is necessary, the ultimate goal of this session is to select all-round super talents, to stand on the world stage, without a strong and stable psychological quality, then the strength of the players will be greatly reduced." ”

As she was talking, Hahamei stood up excitedly, pointed to the competition area and shouted: "Look! Look! Zhou Qi, Zhou Qi is done!"

Several people swept their eyes over, but saw that Zhou Qi walked out of the challenge area step by step with the support of his parents.

Zhou Qi's name was immediately played on the big screen, and the on-site staff began to broadcast:

"No. 25, No. 53, Zhou Qi, 2 minutes and 26 seconds!"

The scene suddenly burst into a "wow" sound, cerebral palsy patient Zhou Qi has advanced to the top 80, how can you make normal people embarrassed? How can you make the young man who is still immersed in the challenge and is known as the highest IQ in China?

The contestants couldn't help but wipe their foreheads, they hadn't done a single cerebral palsy!(This sentence doesn't need to be complicated or derogatory to think about it on the platform, there is no discrimination, it's just that people's normal psychology is amazed, and they haven't done anyone else if they have defects, which makes them embarrassed.) ）

"Smack!" a player was in a hurry and accidentally touched the slider.

Some contestants had red circles in their eyes and were so anxious that they wanted to cry.

There are even players who are sweating profusely, and their hands are trembling so much that they don't obey the call.

……

"No. 35, No. 50 ......"

……

"No. 41, No. 80 ......"

……

Halfway through the game, Li Fan's eyes swept over the contestants one by one, and he mainly observed the performance of several alumni, especially Lin Xiaofeng in his elite class.

After another moment, but seeing that Lin Xiaofeng quickly pressed the timing device, the referee raised the sign after confirming it: Effective!

Lin Xiaofeng shook his head, dissatisfied with his results, but fortunately, he passed the test and passed with a score of 52, a big improvement from the 85th place in the preliminaries. In fact, this ranking has no meaning at all, maybe this project meets what you are good at, you can rank in the top 10, the next project is your weakness, and then you are eliminated, and there is no fuss.

After more than 1 minute, the 80th place was finally contested.

"No. 80, No. 71 player Lei Jia, took 4 minutes and 53 seconds! The remaining 20 players were all eliminated!"

The stage lights dimmed instantly, the mournful music sounded, and the 20 eliminated contestants hung their heads one after another, and left the stage with their hearts devastated.

Jia Yun: "Thank you, thank you for participating in the recording of "The Strongest Brain". I hope that this little ordeal will become a stepping stone on the road of your life, step on it, and smell the fragrance of plum blossoms again! Thank you, goodbye!"

The 20 backs left lonely, and before that, they silently glanced up at the results on the big screen to see how far they were from the qualifiers.

On the big screen:

0 to 1 minute: 1 person, Li Fan. (Dominate the leader, dominate the first gear.) ）

1 minute to 2 minutes: 2 people, Zhang Ye, Brother Bull.

2 minutes to 3 minutes: 31 people......

3 minutes to 4 minutes: 40 people......

4 minutes to 5 minutes: 6 people......

The level of these 80 talented players is extremely high, but there is a gap between ordinary people and geniuses, and there is still a huge gap between geniuses and peerless geniuses.

The audience at the scene is so cool to watch, they like to learn from the bully and abuse the school bully! I like to watch them kill each other!

When all the tables on the stage were removed, Jia Yun said: "If you don't climb the mountain, you don't know the height of the sky; Not near the deep stream, I don't know the thickness of the ground. There are 80 people left, and we will have the second round of competition.

In the second round of the competition, we designed a total of 6 challenges, which focused on spatial ability, reasoning ability, calculation ability, creativity, observation ability and memory skills.

According to the results of the previous round, 80 contestants will choose according to their preferences, and only 13 to 14 people can participate in each event. The last two players in each event will be eliminated, and the one with the best score will get a direct place and directly advance to the top 30!

No. 88 Li Fan, ranked No. 1 in the last round, please come forward and choose!"

Everyone thought to themselves, there is no doubt that Li Fan will definitely be promoted without any suspense, memory, Li Fan directly chooses the memory challenge, so if he doesn't pass the test, who can pass the test with all the players here?

However, the next moment everyone opened their mouths wide and was taken aback.

Li Fan didn't choose the memory challenge at all!

He stood up from the bench, his bright eyes hesitating between the [Calculation Challenge] and the [Observation Challenge] for a moment, and then, to everyone's surprise, he strode behind the [Observation Challenge] sign.

Guest Seats:

Lei Ge frowned: "He didn't even choose the [Memory Challenge]?"

Sister Haha: "Wow, he's really here to challenge himself, just now he said that his observation is a weakness, and then he will challenge his weakness?"

Wang Mu was excited in his heart: Awesome, my handsome Li!

Jia Yun couldn't cry or laugh for a moment, she turned her gaze to Zhang Ye, "No. 45, Zhang Ye, ranked 3rd in the qualifiers, ranked 2nd in the last round, please choose!"

……

The 80 contestants quickly chose their own challenge items, and everyone chose what they were really good at in this round.

Now Li Fan's realm has been raised a little, he is not afraid of failure, if he is afraid of failure, he will not come to participate in this show, he came here, on the one hand, it is to open his eyes on the spot, on the other hand, he simply feels that the challenge is interesting, just to test his mental limit.

He has a clear difference from other players, with his current status, a failure in a challenge project will not have any substantial impact on him, perhaps many people will think that the failed Li Fan is not perfect, but for Li Fan personally, Li Fan is still Li Fan, and his social status and personal achievements remain the same.

Li Fan's idea is also very simple, he didn't come here to guarantee the bottom, he came to challenge his own limits, knowing that he could pass the project with his eyes closed, so why did he choose?

Of course, only people in Li Fan's current state of mind would have this kind of extraordinary thinking, after all, for people like them, challenge is their only pursuit.

But the vast majority of players still have to be guaranteed, and they have to find a way to advance!

The recording of the show was temporarily suspended, and the crowd took a break while the crew began to set up the first challenge.

The staff lifted up more than 100 boards up to two meters 5, and the multiple panels were opposite to each other, spliced together according to the number, and put together a "mouth" type (top-down top view) to enclose the space, and then used the board outside the "mouth" to enclose a large "mouth" shape, so that the "circle" on the stage became a "back" type structure ("back": top-down top view)

The contestants had just shown various postures of bowing to Li Fan, but at this time, in the face of this unknown challenge, everyone became suspicious for a while.

Lin Xiaofeng: "I think this must be another pit girl's project." ”

Brother Bull glanced at Li Fan: "The buddy in the last project didn't even know who the thirty-six Tiangang Star was referring to, the main defeat was here, the buddy didn't choose this challenge project in this game, otherwise I will definitely give you a first, let you see!"

Zhang Ye glanced at him, thinking to himself, how can you brag so much? Where did you put me?

After a short break, the recording continues.

Jia Yun took the stage to introduce the details of the competition.

The first challenge will be the [Observation Challenge], and the 13 contestants who choose this will be the first to challenge this event.

Project Name: "Searching for Springs in the Desert".

"What is "Desert Spring", please look at the big screen!"

On the large screen, a rectangular pattern made of colored fragments is displayed, and the adjacent patterns are of different shapes and colors.

"In this rectangular wall of colored fragments, there are some colored fragments that can form 4 animals, and the audience, who finds it, can raise their hands. ”

The audience squinted and looked closely, and only then did someone spot the four animals.

"It's a cat, coordinates (35,78)(40,82)......"

"It's a dog......"

"Our project of "Searching for Springs in the Desert" is not to ask everyone to find the pattern from the debris wall, but to give the outline of the player's target pattern and let the player find this pattern in the debris wall. ”

The crowd sighed, I see.

Jia Yun asked, "Is this difficult?"

The audience said in unison: "It's difficult!"

"What about this?"

Jia Yun said, and the big screen showed a wall of fragments composed of more than 10,000 fragments, which was countless times more complex than just now.

"Wow, it's so hard, my eyes are glazed!"

"Dense phobia! Grandma, I'm sick!"

"How can I find this!"

……

Jia Yun smiled slightly: "This is not the end, everyone, please look at the big screen!"

On the large screen, the flat "wall of fragments" suddenly cracked, and in a perpendicular manner, cracked into two rectangles of equal size parallel to each other.

(For example, let's simplify a complex abstract problem.)

If a fragmented wall is composed of 16 letters, 4X4=16㎡, the specific composition is as follows:

ABCD

EFGH

IGKL

MNOP

We now split this wall of fragments made of letters vertically to form two new patterns of 4X4=16㎡ and other large opposites, as follows:

(a)

A and C

E port G port

I port K port

M port O port

(b)

Mouth B, Mouth D

Mouth F Mouth H

Mouth G mouth L

Mouth N mouth P

("Mouth" is "blank", that is, the blank space after dismantling.) ）

When we put the two opposite rectangles of equal size together, they become:

ABCD

EFGH

IGKL

MNOP

This is the simple process and basic principle of turning a flat debris wall into a spatial three-dimensional debris wall.

And the challenge of "The Strongest Brain" is much more complicated than this.

If we follow the example above, the fission is asymmetrical if it splits along the edge between the colored fragments, and the fission of the race splits randomly and does not follow the edge of the fragment.

In other words, in the first step, the contestant must first synthesize the debris wall, and in the second step, select the outline of the target pattern from the restored debris wall.

This is the hardest part.

After the audience saw this space debris wall, they shouted one after another.

Even the players on the scene were stunned.

The analysis of this question is as follows:

(1) There are eight colors that confuse the line of sight, among which the cold and warm colors will interfere with the distance and proximity of human vision, and the adjacent colors will interfere with each other.

(2) Tens of thousands of fragments of different shapes, there can be countless splicing combinations, there are countless such animals, and even dogs of different shapes can be spelled out (some vertical tails, some with tails, some turn their heads to the right, and some turn their heads to the left. ）。

(3) Irregular fission, the most difficult of the difficult.

Although it is an examination of observation, it requires the support of comprehensive ability, including spatial integration ability, memory, and so on.

(4) Analyze later.

Jia Yun said: "Please give the [Six-Dimensional Ability Radar Map] on the big screen!"

[Six-Dimensional Capability Radar Chart]:

Spatial forces: 4

Reasoning: 3

Computing power: 1

Creativity: 3

Observation: 5

Memory: 4

"Please tear down the curtain and the game begins!"

The curtain was torn off, and all the fragment shapes appeared in the fragmented wall of the entire "Hui" structure.

The character "Hui" is a top-down view from above, and the contestants have to open the door of the "Hui" wall, and then observe back and forth in the space formed by the "big mouth" and "small mouth" of "Hui".

When the 13 contestants pushed open the door and walked into the room with the word "Hui", they were like thunderbolts, they were all dumbfounded, they wanted to be simple, and they wanted to be simple!

Everyone crowded at the door, looking at the left wall and the right wall, and was stunned!

Before, I said that the two fragments that were split into two walls were equal to each other and were very parallel to each other, right?

However, in the "Hui" word wall, just talking about the floor plan, how can the "vertical" and "vertical" (or "horizontal" and "horizontal") between "big mouth" and "small mouth" be equal to the big one?

Only then did the 13 players realize that there was a obstacle here.

The left and right shards should be equal in size and combined, but now, the inner walls are proportionally smaller than the outer walls!

Without spatial visual symmetry, how does this make these players deal with it?

The 67 players in the other groups couldn't help but secretly rejoice:

"Oh my God, I'm glad I didn't choose this. ”

"This is too perverted, let me in, that's a death!"

"Color, fragmentation, space, non-proportional symmetry, I'll go, this is definitely the primary project for the selection of contestants?"

"This question is extremely difficult, not only requiring spatial integration ability and excellent observation and reasoning ability, but also cracking the serious information distractions of unequal proportions under the principle of symmetry!"

Among the players, just when everyone was scratching their ears and cheeks, trapped at the starting point and at a loss, some people had already set off, and some people had set off again.

Hahamei stood up and said in surprise, "What is he going to do?"

Wang Mumo shook his face, "I don't understand, I can't understand! I seem to have become mentally retarded when I come to this show!"

Brother Lei was still full of doubts, and asked, "Doctor Chen, you use scientific analysis, what does he mean by this?"

Nagging Chen Tan stood up and looked directly at the big screen, this ...... Science is a bit hard to analyze!
