Chapter 6: The Battle for Top Universities
Jet lag is a very painful thing, you can't sleep when you want to sleep, and you have to force yourself to fall asleep when you don't want to sleep. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After coming to the United States, all the members of the BGI competition team were more or less affected by the time difference, but there was one person in the team who did not react to the jet lag at all, should eat, should sleep, and was comfortable as if he had crossed ten time zones on a plane.
Jiang Yin really doesn't feel anything about jet lag, because he has long forgotten what it feels like to sleep, when others are sleeping, he either browses the Internet for news, or closes his eyes and listens to songs, anyway, his brain seems to have cut off the rest mechanism.
During this time, Jiang Yin has a deeper understanding of the Mathematics Olympiad this time, judging from the results of previous competitions, there are four top teams in recent years, namely: the University of Tokyo team, the Harvard University team, the University of Cambridge team, and the University of Oxford team.
These four teams were also the top four teams that won last year.
Then there are the teams that are also very impactful, namely: Huaxia University team, Huaqing University team, Yale University team, University of Toronto, University of Munich in Germany and ETH Zurich in Switzerland.
Then there are some university teams that have played soy sauce over the years, but playing soy sauce in the past few years does not mean that their strength is not good, such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology team, their previous results have not been good, but last year when they were eight into four, they happened to meet the University of Tokyo team in Japan.
At the University of Tokyo in Japan, there is a world-recognized first-day talent in mathematics, Shinichi Fujiwara, who is only 19 years old, and the overall strength of the team is also a few terrifying, so they also won the championship of the previous three competitions.
But in the face of such a formidable opponent, the four student representatives of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology did not admit it, but instead faced the University of Tokyo head-on with the newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers.
The miraculous 4:0 actually kept a clean sheet against the Japanese Tokyo team in the first four rounds, and MIT also became a super dark horse beyond everyone's expectations.
Unfortunately, the captain of the University of Tokyo team, Shinichi Fujiwara, finally turned the tide with one person, and in the remaining five games, one person won five games, and finally won the score 4:5, helping the Japanese team advance to the semifinals.
If you want to stand out from the smart, you can't just be smarter than them, you have to be at the demon level to become the star of these top talents selected from all over the world.
Every country has its own star players, although not like those stars in film and television works, but in mathematics, they are the brightest stars.
There are twins at Harvard University in the United States, the Charlie brothers, their IQ test is more than 160, and the reaction is much faster than ordinary people, it is said that they entered Harvard's junior class at the age of 10, and officially entered Harvard at the age of 12, and the brothers are 16 years old this year, and they are already the leaders of Harvard, and their strength is very strong.
Needless to say, Shinichi Fujiwara of the University of Tokyo in Japan is known as the 'first mathematician of the Heisei era', there is uncertain news, his IQ is more than 200, but he is very kind, and his emotional intelligence is also extremely high, and he is a rare super genius.
The leader of the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom is George, a math maniac, his parents are mathematicians, when he was three years old, his parents began to educate him in mathematics, the results surprised them, George showed an amazing talent for mathematics at a young age, only after primary school, their parents sent him to study with more powerful mathematicians in England, and then George has been studying at Cambridge University, becoming a super genius in the Cambridge mathematics department.
The leader of the team at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom is a girl, named Vivian, this girl is a little special, she is a congenital visual impairment patient, she has been blind since birth, but God is fair, and at the same time she became blind, she gave the girl a super keen mathematical talent, when she graduated from junior high school, she was recommended to enter Imperial College London for further study because of her strong mathematical reasoning ability, and then made great progress, and finally transferred directly to Oxford University, and was even more comfortable in the Department of Mathematics of Oxford University. He was favored by many old professors in the mathematics department and hand-picked as a successor.
Compared with these people, Jiang Yin felt that the mathematical geniuses of other countries were finally normal people, even Gu Xue, who was as strong as the leader of Huada, would be overshadowed in front of these super geniuses.
However, after learning about the stories of so many legendary geniuses in other countries, Jiang Yin is also more and more looking forward to fighting them.
After the transformation of the strange stone, Jiang Yin felt that his brain was completely different from before, his learning ability became stronger, his reaction speed, and his memory were far beyond before, he just read the book casually, and defeated many students in the province in the college entrance examination and won the top position.
He didn't know where his limits were, and he hadn't lost yet, and he was looking forward to competing against these legendary masters to see what level he really was......
......
The draw for the first round of the preliminary round was over, and Professor Jiang Fang represented the Huaxia University team and drew a university of equal strength: the University of Toronto, Canada.
The University of Toronto, Canada, had a bit of a bad record last year, and met the Harvard University team in the first round of the preliminary round of 16-8 matches.
As a seeded team, Harvard University did not show any mercy, winning the tournament with a slaughter of 8:1 in the first round of the preliminary round, which also made the only Canadian university to participate in the defeat.
However, the strength of the University of Toronto is not weak, their leader Kadavinci is a 23-year-old top mathematician, and he also has a place in the Canadian mathematics community.
......
"Professor Jiang, you can rest assured, I have fought against him before, and he is not a genius, but a mathematician with a little talent and hard work."
In the hotel lobby of the Huaxia University team, several contestants from Huada were discussing before the game, and what Lei Yu said just now was what Lei Yu said.
"Lei Yu, although your idea is right, but the statement is really wrong, we are here to participate in the competition, although the results are important, but respect for others is also very important, this is our exchange meeting, everyone is equal, you can't doubt the determination of others to explore mathematics because of their mediocre qualifications."
You also know that there are too many smart people in this world who have not made groundbreaking achievements in mathematics in their lifetimes, but there are many not-so-smart geniuses who have solved many centuries of problems. ”
Jiang Yin sat on the side, listening to the discussion of others, while looking at the A4 paper in his hand, on which was written the personal information of Kadavenci, in which the IQ column was filled with 144, which was already far beyond the IQ of ordinary people.
Jiang Yin couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't know that this Kadavenci was just evaluating him as a mathematician with a little talent and hard work. How would you feel.....
