Binh Hai Province, Haiyan City. Pinghai TV headquarters.

In an office, several figures sit around a computer.

And what is displayed on the screen on this computer is the background data of this preliminary test.

These data include how many questions each player has done so far, the accumulated score to the present, and so on......

You can see this data in the computer display.

Among the 100,000 people, 50,000 or 60,000 people are stuck at about 25 questions.

That is, the halfway point of the question.

And the number of people who have done more than 40 questions is only more than 100!

There are even five or six hundred people, staying at the first question! Polarization can be described as very serious.

These fifty questions, the strongest brain as the time to set the basic timeline, add up to exactly 240 minutes, that is, four hours.

At present, more than half of the people are stepping on this timeline to do the questions. It is about the same as the number estimated by the program team at the beginning.

But...... Apparently.

What the program team wants to look for is not these people who step on the basic timeline.

It's those ...... A true genius like no other!

"Xiao Li, what is the highest score now?" asked the chief director, who was sitting in the main seat, to the young man who had been observing the data while sitting at the computer desk.

"Wait a minute, director, I'll take a look. The young man known as Xiao Li called up a table showing the ranking scores.

When he saw the score of the person at the top of the ranking, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

He replied in a trembling voice, "Director, the highest score right now...... The highest score is...... 482......”

482！！

When the director heard this, he suddenly got up.

He said in a serious voice, "Xiao Li, are you sure you didn't lie to me?"

Xiao Li couldn't laugh or cry, "Director, this kind of thing, how could I lie to you......"

The director still couldn't believe it, and when he saw that the score displayed in the first place was indeed 482 points, he was also surprised in his heart.

What is the highest score a contestant can theoretically achieve in this set of questions?

500 points!

Among them, the total score of the base score is 100 points.

The system will give players an additional score of -5 to 5 according to the time taken to answer the question.

For example, if the base score of a question is 5 points, the contestant has a shorter time to answer the question and gets an additional score of 3 points.

Then, if he answers this question correctly, he will get 15 points for this question.

If you do it slower than the standard timeline, you get an additional score of -2 points.

Even if you answer correctly, you can only get 2.5 points!

Theoretically, if all 50 questions are completed at the perfect speed and all of them are done correctly, you can get 500 points!

But...... This perfect score only exists in theory.

No one thought that anyone would get such a perverted score!

Even above 450 points, they didn't expect much.

Although more than 100,000 people invited to participate in the preliminary examination are all top students.

But the origin of this set of questions is not simple.

This is a set of topics that the program team invited more than a dozen professors from top universities across the country to figure out in a week.

According to the prediction given by the professors. The first place in this quiz has a score of about 400 points.

The score of the first 1,000 to qualify for the promotion is above 250 points.

The average score of 100,000 people is around 100 points.

The professors' predictions were certainly not untargeted, but extrapolated based on the overall level of 100,000 people who took the test.

But now, there is an outlier. That's Cheng Nuo!

When the chief director of the program group saw Cheng Nuo's name displayed in front of 482 points, he also had questions in his heart.

The geniuses of the major universities, even if he hasn't seen them all, he has heard of them a little.

But among those people, there is no such person as Cheng Nuo.

This made the director wonder.

In the director's opinion, since he can get a high score of 482, his strong thinking ability and logical ability must be possessed by graduate students or even doctoral students.

"Xiao Li, give me this information called Cheng Nuo. The director instructed Xiao Li Dao.

The information of all 100,000 contestants is stored in the database of their program group. If you want to see a player's profile, you can call it up at any time.

Xiao Li answered and retrieved Cheng Nuo's information from the database.

"Uh...... Director, found ......" Xiao Li said with a strange expression.

The director did not miss the change in Xiao Li's complexion, and looked at the computer screen.

Name: Cheng Nuo

Age: eighteen

Address: Zhuyuan Community, Qingcheng City, Dongshan Province

School: Qingcheng No. 2 Middle School

Number of entries in the competition: 0

Number of awards: 0

Number of patents obtained: 0

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

Obtain the first count of the grade: 0

Director: "???"

This series of 0s, the directors who watch it are a little skeptical about life!

No, a person with such a high score in the test has even a great deed...... None of them!

It doesn't matter if you're a high school student. Although there is a gap between it and the graduate students and doctoral students expected by the director, it is not unacceptable.

But your series of zeros is really a bit excessive!

Even if you are an ordinary scholar, you have a few brilliant deeds that you can get your hands on.

But it's better for you to just show us a blank piece of paper!

The director stood in place, rubbing his chin, looking at Cheng Nuo's information on the computer screen, not knowing what he was thinking.

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

The next day.

Cheng Nuo, who got up early, turned on his mobile phone and saw that his mailbox had received an email sent at more than three o'clock in the morning today.

The person who came showed was the "Strongest Brain" program group.

"Hey, I didn't expect the efficiency of the program team to be quite fast. ”

Seeing this email, Cheng Nuo didn't have any waves in his heart, he just wanted to send a talk and pretend to be forced.

Originally, Cheng Nuo thought that with his own strength, it would be no problem to enter the top 1,000.

This email is just a verification of my inner thoughts.

Cheng Nuo clicked on the email casually. 、

"Hello Cheng Nuo, congratulations on your score in the top ten of this preliminary examination! According to the rules, you will not need to participate in the second round of written test, and you will only need to participate in the third round of interview within the specified time!"

Get the top 10 in the preliminary examination, and you don't need to participate in the second round of written exams!

To be honest, Cheng Nuo really didn't expect this result.

Because according to Lao Tang, there is no mention that the top ten in the first round of the test do not need to take the written test.

As for whether this rule is new or has been there for a long time, Cheng Nuo is not very clear.

Regarding this result, Cheng Nuo said...... Very dissatisfied!

If I lost the opportunity to take the written test, it means that I have one less pretending ...... Ahh

This made Cheng Nuo, a socialist three-good young man, feel disappointed!

Hey, if I had known, I would have deliberately made a few more mistakes!
