Chapter 84: Hesitation

"Join the math group? Participating in a math contest for college students? ”

Wang Ning looked at Wu Bingbai with a little surprise, why did the other party suddenly want to invite him!

Seeing Wang Ning's expression, Wu Bingbai said affirmatively: "That's right, this is my invitation to Wang Ning!" Then he explained the meaning of the mathematics group: "Wang Ning also understands that every club has the meaning of existence, and the mathematics club is the same, it is the place I use to select mathematics seedlings." In the math group, you will receive the best educational resources in the school and enjoy advantages that ordinary students cannot imagine. As for participating in the college student mathematics competition, it is a kind of training and test, and compared with students of the same age, you can see your own shortcomings! ”

With Wu Bingbai's explanation, Wang Ning also understood the meaning of the so-called mathematical group.

In fact, it is equivalent to the official members of the national team, how many athletes are there in a country? Wang Ning of other countries does not know, there are no less than 500,000 athletes in China alone, and how many official members of the national team are? A few hundred, a thousand at most.

So aren't all other athletes athletes? Of course not, they are also athletes, but they are just substitutes for the national team.

Just like the current math club, there are not a few members of the math club, and there are only a few people who can join the math group. At the end of the day, there are even fewer students who can compete in national competitions, maybe just three or four. The meaning of the mathematics group is simply to select talents layer by layer.

"It is a great honor for students to be invited by Professor Wu to join the mathematics group, and there is no problem with this. But to participate in the college math competition? ”

There is really no problem in joining the mathematics group, since you want to publish Wang Ning's conjecture, the next one or two decades will be spent on mathematics, and you naturally want to show others your own growth process. Stepping on the top student to get the status of a super top student is the first step, joining the mathematics club to establish his status is the third step, and entering the elite mathematics group is also his goal, as for participating in the national competition, he will naturally not let go, but can he really participate now?

"What? Any questions? ”

Hearing that Wang Ning joined the mathematics group, Wu Bingbai couldn't help but be overjoyed. Regardless of whether he and Shen Chongfeng have a competitive relationship or not, he is naturally happy to be able to pull good seedlings to his side. It's just that when I heard Wang Ning's next sentence, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

He really wanted Wang Ning to join this year's college student mathematics competition, not only because he saw Wang Ning's strength from the test question verification just now, but also because of his lack of confidence in the mathematics group.

The National Collegiate Mathematics Competition is different from other mathematical competitions in that it was founded in a very short time, from 2009 to 2015, it has only been six years, and it has also been held for six times. Among the six editions, except for the first two or three worlds that are groping forward, so the competition is not too noticeable, the scale of the later editions is getting bigger and bigger, and there is a faint situation of holding a top event.

In particular, the ranking of college mathematics competitions is increasingly recognized by colleges and universities, and the leaders of many top universities have also paid attention to college student mathematics competitions. Since the beginning of the previous year, top universities such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, and Fudan University have begun to invest in participating in the competition.

Even if Wu Bingbai doesn't want to admit that the top universities of Peking University are not comparable to Yulan University of Technology, whether it is soft power or hard power, Yulan University of Technology has been completely blown up by those top universities.

Take the quality of students as an example, if the students of Yulan University of Technology are one in a thousand. Then the students of these universities at Peking University are one in a million, one in a hundred thousand, and every student who can enter a top university is a genius at will.

On the basis of genius, the selection of the top mathematical genius again can be imagined how big the impact on the mathematics competition is.

Not to mention compared with Peking University and Tsinghua University, even within Anwan Province, Yulan University of Technology does not dare to say that it stands at the peak.

The University of Science and Technology and the School of Electronic Engineering, these two universities are not technical universities that can be challenged casually. Once the two put more strength, it is unknown whether anyone from Yulan University can break through the preliminaries and qualify for the finals.

In the face of heavy pressure, Wu Bingbai was naturally not easy. He desperately wants to be supported even more and make him more confident in his genius. Undoubtedly, Wang Ning's performance gave him hope of breaking through the blockade of the preliminaries and entering the finals.

"Professor Wu, as far as I know, the competition time for the college student mathematics competition is October 24, which is only a week away, can I still sign up? Also, I don't seem to be eligible to apply! ”

Spreading his hands, Wang Ning expressed his doubts.

Wang Ning still knows a little about the National College Student Mathematics Competition, and he naturally knows the time of the preliminaries. There are only seven days left until the 24th today, and the candidates who signed up for the competition are estimated to have been uploaded to the Education Bureau.

Even if he could, he wouldn't be eligible.

As one of the main competitions for college students, the mathematics competition is not too strict for registration. As long as you are a college student, you can apply even if you are not a math major. However, there is one thing that applicants must be a sophomore or above.

It is this requirement that puts an end to the possibility of Wang Ning participating in the competition, requiring students to be more than a sophomore, but he is only a freshman, and he can't participate in the competition at all.

"Hey, why did I think it's difficult? Isn't that just the qualifications to apply? It doesn't matter, you have to know that our country has such a large population, and a few geniuses will accidentally pop up every year. Some geniuses are willing to do research in loneliness, and some are willing to participate in the competition, for this situation, the competition team has long been prepared and issued special places to each school! ”

Hearing Wang Ning's question, Wu Bingbai didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said happily.

"Special places?"

Wang Ning and Zhang Jing were stunned, they really hadn't heard of it!

"Yes, it's a special place, as long as a professor thinks that the student is not bad, he can recommend the other party to participate in the competition. For students with special quotas, the organizer does not require the standard of students, as long as the other party is still a college student! ”

Indeed, the reason for the emergence of special places is to give gifted students the opportunity to compete, not to brush up the bugs of colleges and universities. If any university is shameless and directly gives special places to graduate students or doctoral students, it is not stable to get the ranking.

Therefore, there are requirements for the age and academic qualifications of the students. And Wang Ning naturally meets the requirements of the special quota.

was able to give himself a special quota, Wu Bingbai did show his sincerity. However, Wang Ning did not agree directly, but pondered for a while, and then said: "I understand what Professor Wu means, I promise the professor to join the mathematics group." However, I still need to ask my teachers for advice on whether I can participate in the competition! ”

Wang Ning naturally wanted to consult Shen Chongfeng's opinion, he was discussing the content of Wang Ning's conjecture with Shen Chongfeng, and when he was writing his thesis, he turned out to run to participate in some competition. He really didn't know that Shen Chongfeng wouldn't think he was not doing his job.

Wang Ning's words made Wu Bingbai slightly stunned, and then nodded as if he suddenly realized, glanced at Wang Ning deeply, and whispered: "Indeed, with your talent, Old Man Shen doesn't know if he has any other plans for you, I really have to ask him first!" ”

Wu Bingbai's expression made Wang Ning a little strange, didn't he just ask if his teacher had any conflict with the essay when he participated in the competition? How to deal with the table xiàn so strange.
