Chapter 340

After staying in the school until the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, saying goodbye to Professor Fang, Cheng Nuo got on the plane home alone.

The brain is empty, what BSD conjectures, mental arithmetic contests, and Meisai these things are all left behind.

This is probably the only few days in the next year when I can put down my body and mind and rest without the trouble of foreign affairs, so Cheng Nuo cherishes it very much.

Eat, drink, and enjoy his last happy moments.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, I watched the Spring Festival Gala that was completely out of the box, and then ushered in the New Year in a large number of New Year's wishes from relatives and friends.

After that, it is the process of constantly visiting relatives and being taken relatives.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Cheng Nuo got on the plane back to Kyoto.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, after a day of rest, he and Coach Hong Zhong and his other nine members of the national speed arithmetic team boarded a plane to Seattle, the United States, to compete in this year's World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition.

The other nine team members are almost the same as Cheng Nuo imagined, although there are men and women, but they are ...... How to say it!

When Hong Zhong introduced himself to several other team members, a little girl raised her head and greeted Cheng Nuo cordially, "Hello Uncle Cheng!"

Cheng Nuo's face was black at that time, but Annoyi, who had long been familiar with Cheng Nuo, was giggling.

............

It's February, and Seattle is a famous tourist city, with a pleasant climate that is much warmer than Kyoto.

A group of 11 people stepped off the plane and checked into a hotel near the competition venue.

Of course, this hotel is the residence provided by the organizers, the World Abacus Federation, to all the participants.

Therefore, as soon as you enter the hotel lobby, you can see many foreigners dressed in different clothes, speaking in an unknown language, and several people gathered together to chatter about something.

However, when Cheng Nuo and his party stepped into the door of the hotel, they all stopped discussing.

Huaguo team!

Whether it was the appearance or the costumes, they recognized it at a glance, this was the Huaguo team from the mysterious East!

Especially Hong Zhong, he has led the Huaguo team to participate in this competition for five years, and few national team leaders say that they don't know Hong Zhong.

After all, they've been ruling the field for nine years!

Just like the dominance of Chinese table tennis in the international table tennis arena, it even surpasses it.

At this time, most of the team leaders from various countries gathered in the lobby looked at the team members behind Hong Zhong one by one with a jealous and cautious gaze.

Well?

Many people tilted their heads in confusion.

Because they found that none of the three Chinese girls who shined in the World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition last year appeared in the participating teams of the Chinese team!

It shouldn't be!

Most of the team leaders present participated in the World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition last year. Last year, there were three little girls in the Huaguo team who were only about ten years old, and they created crushing results in the competition stage!

Well, although they have always been crushed by Huaguo on this project!

But their kind of crushing is different, it is a kind of crushing that makes people feel desperate, and they can't afford to resist any thought!

It stands to reason that all three players are in the prime of the game, and they will definitely participate this year.

However, among the team members behind Hong Zhong, they did not find the three figures that impressed them, but instead, they saw an outlier!

Well, that's right, the outlier in their mouth is Cheng Nuo!

This player, who looks to be in his twenties, is indeed ...... It's not very common!

If it weren't for the stipulation that the number of participants from each country was ten, they almost all wondered if this "senior player" was a little follower brought by Coach Hong!

But then again, Huaguo is such a strict team, how did this guy get in!

Could it be that it depends on "guanxi", they have heard that in that mysterious country of China, "guanxi" can handle everything.

However, I don't know what Coach Hong's mood will be!

While they were begging for Coach Hong's psychological shadow area, they were also extremely excited in their hearts.

The absence of the three "big devil" level players of the Huaguo team, coupled with the burden caused by an "elderly player", they may really be able to break Huaguo's monopoly in the speed calculation project this time.

On the other hand, Cheng Nuo naturally felt the gaze of many foreigners on him, although some languages could not be understood, but from their looks and expressions, he could know their attitude towards him.

Age is still a hard injury!

When engaging in academic research, others thought Cheng Nuo was too young.

But when it comes to the Quick Break Competition, it becomes too old!

What can Cheng Nuo do? He's also desperate, okay?

The only thing I can do is I'm afraid to talk about the results!

However, pretending to be forced in front of a group of younger siblings, even nephews and nieces, is simply unmotivated, okay?

Even these children are recognized as "genius children"!

............

On February 11, the 20th World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition was held in a high school in Seattle, USA.

The tournament lasted for two days.

One day is used for the contestants to compete, and the other day is used for marking and awarding awards.

The competition is divided into team competition and individual competition.

The format of the competition is written answers, that is, it is no different from the exam, except that the questions are all various types of calculation questions.

Individual rankings are determined by individual results.

The team ranking is determined by the sum of the results of the 10 competitors from each country.

The game lasts two hours.

The reminder includes both basic and additional questions. There are a total of 100 basic questions, including addition and subtraction mixed operation, large digit multiplication, large digit division, each question according to the difficulty by different scores, a total score of 500 points.

The additional questions, on the other hand, only contain multiplication of large digits and division of large digits, and the difficulty of each question is higher than that of the basic questions.

For example, in the basic problem, the maximum multiplication of large digits will only be eight digits by eight digits, and the simplest multiplication of large digits in the additional questions will be eight digits by nine digits.

In addition, the score of each question in the additional questions is fixed, only 1 point! Compared with the 7 and 8 points in the basic questions, the cost performance is very low.

But if you want to get as high a score as possible, additional questions are a must, and the more you get it right, the better. Because in terms of basic questions, it is almost difficult for a group of contestants to open up the gap.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the game began.

After the competition starts, the examiner will only distribute the first part of the basic question paper first, and only after the basic question paper has been answered and the result is submitted, the additional question paper can be collected one by one.

There are a total of 50 questions in each additional paper. Once you have written it all and submitted it, you can only get the next one, and so on.

Historically, the highest individual score in the Quick Calculation Contest was created by a Chinese player.

It was 2010, and Huaguo player Li He set a personal record of 1052 points, which has not been broken so far!
