Chapter 591: Chinese Chess Holy War
Li Xiangping was really not a joke just now, because he was sure to take the college entrance examination, not an exemption, so it was naturally not a "guarantee", but in his current situation, a lot of extra points were waiting there, which was even easier than escorting.
Let's calculate the plus points that Li Xiangping has now:
As early as 4 years ago, he was already a professional nine-dan, such a thing is equivalent to a "technical title" in China, and in the sports world, it is equivalent to a "sportsman", a plus!
In addition, he is a world champion, and he is also the highest-level "international-level athlete" in the "athletes", and the highest-level plus!
In addition, he has been rated as one of the top ten athletes in the country for 3 consecutive years, you must know that this is not a pheasant honor, it is an officially recognized honor, the situation of our country, as long as it is an officially certified honor, it is usually taken care of in the college entrance examination, which is a plus!
Not only that, because of his achievement in the "Golden Slam" last year, he was rated as one of the top ten young people in the country by Huaxia Youth Daily, which is another heavyweight plus! This is even a plus that is heavier than the weight of the "Top 10 Athletes"!
It is precisely because there are so many extra points that Li Xiangping has already inquired, according to this year's situation, he probably only needs to score about 250 points in the exam, and there will be no problem in entering the Department of Philosophy of Peking University.
Well, although Li Xiangping is a scumbag, he only took 250 in the college entrance examination this year, and he is still sure, he thinks that if he can't reach this score, then he will simply find a piece of tofu and kill him.
In fact, according to Li Xiangping's conditions, he can obtain the qualification for escort, and the reason why he decided to take the college entrance examination in person is here------- after all, no matter how you say it, the university you "entered" to is better than the university you are guaranteed to go to, doesn't it?
Of course, although Li Xiangping himself thinks that it must be no problem to take the 250 test, there are still people who are not at ease, at this time, they are still worried about Li Xiangping's college entrance examination.
This person is none other than Li Xiangping's grandmother, Mr. Hu, a retired people's teacher.
After the Spring Festival holiday, Mr. Hu followed Li Da Tuhao to the capital again. As a grandson, Li Xiangping still understands the psychology of the elderly.
The old man is the most typical middle school teacher in the last century, and he is a middle school teacher in a small place, Mr. Hu has led the graduating class for half his life, so Li Xiangping has always felt that grandma is the kind of person who lives for the college entrance examination.
Every year in 678 months, that is the busiest and most worrying March for Mr. Hu, Li Xiangping even feels that this should also be her happiest and most rewarding month.
She is happy that the students have good grades in the exams, and she has a sense of accomplishment when she helps the students fill in a volunteer.
Well, now that Teacher Hu has been retired for several years, it is no longer her turn to worry about the students' scores, and now, even the number of people who ask her to fill in the volunteer for reference has become less and less, so the loss in Teacher Hu's heart, she now feels that life is as lonely as snow.
Fortunately, now other people's affairs are no longer worried, but his own grandson has grown up, so it is completely conceivable, how could Mr. Hu give up such an opportunity.
No, Mr. Hu came to the capital again after the New Year, nominally to help bring his sister, but Li Xiangping knew that most of this time was for himself.
Time is slowly coming to the end of March, and in a few days, Li Xiangping needs to go to the first international competition of the season------ the 17th "Fujitsu Cup".
It was precisely in consideration of the imminent arrival of the official competition that on this day, the "master art instructor" ended early.
Li Xiangping felt that at this time, it was still necessary to find more of a sense of chess, otherwise it would be a bit bad if there were still frequent cheating and unreasonable moves in the game.
However, this kind of thing of 'recovering the feeling' is just Li Xiangping's own imagination, if he really wants to operate, he really doesn't know how to operate this kind of thing.
So after pretending to "find" there for a while, Li Xiangping immediately felt bored, and when he was bored, he remembered the big toys at home, and ran to tease his sister, who was not yet a year old.
"Come on Beibei, call Brother Sheng to listen."
The big toy didn't give face at all, and she was still laughing, but she even cried when Li Xiangping said this.
Teacher Hu couldn't look past it at that time, she snatched the big toy from Li Xiangping's hand, and glared at Li Xiangping while coaxing it:
"What are you messing with here, your sister is still so young, how can she call your brother?"
"Isn't this almost a year old, I can't even call my brother, why is Bei Bei so stupid?"
Teacher Hu was laughed at at that time: "What do you know? Do you know how old you yourself were when you spoke as a child? ”
"How old am I?"
"I didn't know how to speak when I was more than two years old, I was worried that you were a fool, if you want to say stupid, is there anything more stupid than you, by the way, you are stupid like this, then don't hurry up and review your homework, just like you, I'm worried that you won't even be able to get 250."
Li Xiangping's eyes widened, and he said in his heart that I was really so stupid when I was a child, and I didn't know how to speak when I was more than two years old? Don't they all say I'm a genius?
Of course, for this kind of thing, of course he is embarrassed to ask his grandmother to confirm, but for another matter, Li Xiangping feels the need to argue for himself:
"Yo grandma, look at what you said, who are you looking down on, why can't I pass the 250 exam?"
Hearing that since Li Xiangping dared to speak back, grandma's people's teacher's problem occurred at that time:
"You're embarrassed to say, look at your grades, huh? Look at what you have become like, especially your Chinese, your English, and the Department of Philosophy of Peking University, the liberal arts are so poor, you are embarrassed to go to Peking University to study philosophy. ”
"I ...... What's wrong with my liberal arts, grandma, don't forget, you praised me last year, saying that I have made great progress in Chinese. ”
"This ......"
Teacher Hu was speechless at the time, looking at the grandmother who was speechless, Li Xiangping was proud, and said Don't look at you all the time, you always teach Chinese, teach students to learn classical Chinese every day, but this plug-in I bring, people usually speak in classical Chinese, is this worse than you?
Do you know what I'm called? The so-called "open life does not need to be explained" is actually talking about your grandson.
Of course, as a former excellent people's teacher, how could Mr. Hu admit defeat like this:
"Okay, okay, your Chinese has improved a bit, but Xiangping, what about your English? Your English is still not so bad, I can tell you, in this modern society, it is not good to have poor English, how can you make up for this shortcoming......."
Seeing that grandma was still ready to nag, Li Xiangping hurriedly stopped:
"Grandma, I'm going to study philosophy, you say I'm studying philosophy, why do you want that English?"
Teacher Hu glared: "Why don't you need it." ”
"Grandma, think about it, there are so many great philosophers in ancient and modern times, is there an Englishman or an American?"
"This ......."
Seeing that his grandmother was speechless again, Li Xiangping was proud again, but before he could be proud for 3 seconds, Mr. Hu spoke again: "Xiangping, you want to bully grandma for not understanding philosophy, right, then let me tell you, Bacon, Boole, Russell, these are all British, which one is not a philosopher?" In particular, Ren Boole, who established the logic of algebra, can be called a master of philosophy, there are so many English-speaking philosophers, do you dare to say that English is not important? ”
Li Xiangping was a little dumbfounded at the time, he had heard of Bacon, and Russell also knew the name, but this Bull, who was called a philosophical master by Mr. Hu, to tell the truth, Li Xiangping really didn't know who this person was.
But although he didn't know who this man was, he was very clear about one thing:
The reason why my grandmother can know so much is not because of how knowledgeable she was before, but because she deliberately paid attention to this knowledge after knowing that her own grandson was going to study philosophy.
Now that he knows this, how dare Li Xiangping talk back to his grandmother?
Li Xiangping finally admitted defeat, and after seeing Li Xiangping finally admit defeat, her grandmother was happy, and she finally resumed her "heavy speech":
"I said Xiangping, English is really important, well, I think with your current level, even if you go to college in the future, you won't be able to learn anything, I think otherwise, now it's better to ask a tutor to make up for your English level, but who is better...... By the way, I remember who came to our house last year was good. ”
"Who?"
"Just that Mr. Cai's daughter, I heard that everyone is an exchange student who has been to the UK......"
"Stop, stop."
Seeing that Mr. Hu's brain was open, and he actually wanted to ask Cai Shanshan to be his tutor, Li Xiangping couldn't cry or laugh, and he couldn't care so much, he interrupted his grandmother at that time to continue:
"I said grandma, it's not me who criticizes you, you don't want this idea."
"Oh, do you think that you are good at Go, and it would be a shame to ask someone to teach you English?"
"No, grandma, do you really don't know or fake don't know."
"What do I know?"
"The little girl you are talking about, my father and her father used to make fun of the two of us, saying that they would treat her as my daughter-in-law in the future."
"Huh? And what's going on? ...... Hehe, but I think that little girl is pretty good......."
"It's not a bad question," Li Xiangping once again helplessly interrupted Mr. Hu:
"Grandma, think about it, others don't know that you know about this, you want to ask her to be my tutor, I know that I am just a tutor, but when I meet the unreasonable, I think you want to find your granddaughter-in-law now."
"This ......."
Before grandma could react, Li Xiangping continued:
"Grandma, think about it again, I'm only 18 years old now, I'm only 18 years old, and I'm not even a college student, if you really invite her, others won't mistakenly think that you are encouraging early love, but you are such an excellent people's teacher, how can you encourage early love? Then you say, do you want to think like this? ”
After a series of soul tortures, Li Xiangping didn't wait for Teacher Hu to react, he fled as soon as possible: "Okay, grandma, I'm going to Japan to compete again the day after tomorrow, I'll go and pack up my things first." ”
On the second day, considering that he was going to leave the next day, Li Xiangping went to the chess academy, and as soon as he arrived at the first floor of the chess academy, he was stopped by Zhang Wendong Jiuduan:
"Xiangping is here? Come here, come here. ”
"What's the matter with Mr. Zhang?"
The director of the competition department of the chess academy did not get down to business first, but made this opening statement:
"Xiangping, I've seen your schedule for the first half of the year, and it seems to be a little idle."
Li Xiangping cooperated with a wry smile, the first half of the year was relatively leisurely, of course he knew that because there were only 3 world competitions this year, and he didn't have to participate in the qualifiers for the "Samsung Cup" and "LG Cup", so in the entire first half of the year, in addition to the armor, he actually only had to go to Japan tomorrow for an international match.
Seeing that Li Xiangping didn't squeak, Zhang Jiuduan didn't talk too much nonsense:
"Xiangping, it's just that I saw that you are relatively idle, and I will tell you two things today."
"Teacher Zhang, you say, you say."
"The first thing, Xiangping, you know, the final of this year's "Chunlan Cup" opened in Changsha 10 days later, Xiangping, this seems to be the first time you have missed the World Series finals since your debut, which makes us all a little unaccustomed. ”
When he heard this, Li Xiangping's face was a little unsightly, and he said in his heart, what do you mean? You're not used to it, and I'm not used to it.
Zhang Jiuduan went on to say:
"It's just that everyone is a little unaccustomed to it, so Dean Wang and they thought, I still can't let you be absent, communicate with Chunlan Company and the Imperial Court, and want you to be the guest of chess in the finals, so I will ask you what you mean now."
As soon as he heard this, Li Xiangping was of course dispensable.
"By the way, Mr. Zhang, you just said two things, what about the second thing?"
"This second thing is that I learned the lesson of last year," Zhang Wendong smiled nine paragraphs:
"Last year, you suddenly said that you were going to participate in the "Ahantongshan Cup", didn't you catch me off guard, and there will be a domestic chess battle to start in a few days, so today, I specially asked your own opinion in advance, and I want to ask you if you will participate. ”
Hearing that it was a domestic title fight, Li Xiangping didn't want to refuse, but he quickly remembered a match, a match that would start in mid-April:
"You mean, the Chinese Chess Holy War?"
"Yes, it's a Chinese chess holy war."
