Chapter 306: Bottleneck
There was nothing big about it in the last few days of the National Day, that is, the meals at home were more abundant than before, and then Su Mu and Yan Xiaoke went shopping more in the city.
It's a pity that because there is no academic pressure and no urging from parents, Yan Xiaoke finds that his interest in shopping is far less than when he was in high school, and he might as well lie down at home and play with his mobile phone every day.
watched two or three movies, and asked Su Mu to take her to an Internet café to surf the Internet on a whim, and the eleventh holiday slowly ended.
After a few days of relaxation, the back-to-school train ticket was bought on October 7th.
The two returned to the capital again, to their university life.
......
......
"Wow..."
In the library, some students who have decided to study hard in the new semester have forgotten their "decision", so the library is much more empty than when the school started.
Su Mu pinched a ball of scratch paper into a ball with some annoyance, and sighed helplessly.
He is still studying and thinking seriously every day, studying the topic of mathematics, but he gradually finds that he has encountered a bottleneck.
This bottleneck is not a bottleneck in knowledge, but a bottleneck in time.
Su Mu's current math skill level has reached level thirteen, and he has even almost completed most of the teaching materials that he needs to learn in college.
However, even after self-study of these things, I still feel that I have more than enough strength in some difficult formula arguments.
The disconnect between cutting-edge mathematics and pedagogical mathematics is simply too great, and each research direction is very different.
If Su Mu wants to have a bigger breakthrough, he can only use time to run in, or wait for a sudden epiphany of inspiration.
For example, now Su Mu has studied the generalized Poincaré conjecture and the theory of differential dynamical systems, which are not at the same level as the Poincaré conjecture mentioned in the textbook.
It wasn't quite what he expected.
Originally, he wanted to improve a certain skill as soon as possible, and then use the advantages of this skill to drive other skill points, but now if he really wants to spend several years or more studying a topic like those old-timers, then he is too sorry for the system he has.
"Skill points."
Su Mu figured out that if he wanted to make a breakthrough quickly, he still had to work his skill points.
There are two benefits to obtaining skill points, one is that you can directly use extreme operations to break through bottlenecks in key positions, and the other is that you can save up to further improve your math level, the higher your math level, the broader his knowledge and ideas will be.
It's just that there is no such thing as a five-university competition in the university now, and there is no monthly exam, and even the math competition and physics competition for college students have to wait until the next semester, and Su Mu really can't think of any particularly good way to continue to acquire skills.
Now I can only try to see if I can participate in some small activities.
In the university, during this time, various clubs or organizations have already started audition registration for certain activities, such as chess competitions, debate competitions, speech competitions and the like, although the rewards may not be particularly much, but with Su Mu's current strength, many projects should not be able to meet any opponents.
It's better to add up than to do nothing.
.......
On the first weekend after the National Day, this year's student union admission process and the recruitment of some clubs officially began.
Because he had already obtained the position of class president, he usually had to deal with more documents than he imagined, so Su Mu did not go to join the excitement of the student union.
The role of the student union in the university is more inclined to a kind of management and organizational activities, but Su Mu does not need to manage, nor does he want to manage others.
The club or something, Su Mu didn't go to participate.
Now he just wants to silently brush up on his skill points and try his best to see if he can make a breakthrough in mathematics first.
Su Mu now has a girlfriend, and he doesn't need more socializing, clubs and the like, so it's not too late to participate in it when his juniors and seniors are free.
However, although Su Mu was not very emotionally interested, the other three people in the dormitory each had their own goals.
After interviews and competitions, the other three were all elected to the student council of the Faculty of Physics.
Zhuge Chuixue and Lin Shaojun have both joined the learning department of the School of Physics, and are usually responsible for some learning organizations and attendance registration of various classes, in addition, Zhuge Chuixue has also joined several clubs.
Shen Tianhao directly entered the External Relations Department.
According to him, he seems to know the vice president of the external relations department of a junior year, who happens to be his former senior.
After all, he is a local, and his family conditions are not bad, Su Mu feels that a student like Shen Tianhao has surpassed most of his classmates at his birth point.
Yan Xiaoke also went to try the election of the student union of the Foreign Chinese College.
Of course, with Yan Xiaoke's appearance and conditions, he was directly admitted to the Ministry of Literature and Art on the same day.
Most of the foreign Chinese colleges are girls, according to Yan Xiaoke, there is not even a single male student in the entire art department, and some activities that require male students have to ask other departments for help.
This news still made Su Mu feel very happy, if Yan Xiaoke didn't have any boys in their department, to a certain extent, Su Mu would have a lot less possibility of meeting a "love rival".
Su Mu originally wanted to study it during this time to see if he could participate in any small activities or something.
Unexpectedly, after the student union recruited new students, there was a competition directly to find the door!
"Freshman Erudite Cup Encyclopedia Knowledge Competition."
This is mainly undertaken by Zhuge Chuixue's learning department, so Su Mu had already received the news on the day the document was sent.
As the name suggests, it is to examine some of the more miscellaneous knowledge and memory levels.
The first is the Erudite Cup competition in the college, and there are five classes for freshmen in the School of Physics, two classes in physics, two classes in astronomy, and one class in atmospheric science.
Those who are willing to participate are free to sign up, and if they can get the top three, they can also represent the college in the school's Polymath Cup competition.
When he saw this competition, Su Mu felt that this was simply a competition tailored for himself.
He himself has a wide range of knowledge in various fields, and participating in this kind of encyclopedia knowledge contest is simply a matter of handicap.
......
Saturday, October 16, light rain.
The preliminary round of the Freshman Polymath Cup of the School of Physics was officially launched.
The weather is getting cooler, many students have already put on their coats on board, and the competition publicity of the Erudite Cup is not very strong, so most of them are just players coming by themselves, and at most only one or two roommates accompany them.
The venue is the teaching building of the Faculty of Physics, and the official competition starts at 7 o'clock in the evening.
But it's a competition, but because most of them are students in charge, it's not as formal as imagined.
Zhuge Chuixue and Lin Shaojun both served in the learning department, plus the selection within the department was the responsibility of the department within the department, if Su Mu was willing, he could even know some of the questions and answers in advance.
Of course, he didn't deliberately ask, this kind of small competition, as long as it is not too bizarre, Su Mu basically has no pressure, if he wants to be reduced to finding the destination of the question in advance, it will be too detrimental to the dignity of the scholar.
There are not many people participating in the physics class, but there are twenty or thirty students from the other two majors, and among the contestants, Su Mu is more familiar with only Zhen Qiqi who signed up.
To Su Mu's surprise, a showy Gu Tunan had no shadow in this event.
Listening to Zhuge Chuixue's inquiry, Gu Tunan seems to have directly joined the school-level student union and may be responsible for the school-level activities later, so he didn't have time to participate in this kind of department competition this time.
Seven.
The competition has officially begun.
In the classroom, the contestants sat in their seats, and then each was handed out a chapter of A4 paper.
This is the preliminary round within the department, and the audition is directly conducted by means of test papers.
Su Mu shrugged his shoulders, he didn't expect that the preliminary competition was more casual than he imagined, and he didn't even ask for a mobile phone or anything to hand it in.
If you want to cheat, it's very easy.
Of course, basically all the contestants are very conscious, and if they are caught cheating in this kind of activity, I am afraid that it will be very embarrassing for the whole four years of college.
Spread out the A4 paper, the first ten were all multiple-choice questions, Su Mu turned the pen and looked at the first question.
"What is the seventh highest peak in the world?"
"A, Mount Everest"
"B, Manaslu Peak"
"C, Dhaulagiri Peak"
"D, Wang Feng"
