The second competition officially began.

The subject of this competition is mathematics.

Mathematics has its poignant history.

The Nobel Prizes are Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Peace, Literature, and Economics.

Why isn't there a math prize?

The reason why he didn't set up a mathematics prize in the first place was because he didn't think mathematics was important.

It cannot foresee the future role of mathematics in the promotion of disciplines.

In his opinion, it is impossible to make an outstanding contribution to humanity.

To put it bluntly, he is ostensibly something that cannot be seen or touched.

But he is an indispensable tool for research in all disciplines.

Of all the Nobel prizes, in fact, none of them are separated from mathematics.

Mathematics is the foundation of all re-education, mathematics is an important channel for cultivating logical thinking, don't just look at the present, think about it in the long run, mathematics is the soul of all disciplines.

All major scientific and technological progress is closely related to mathematics, without which there would be no computers, televisions, and space shuttles, and there would be no such colorful life as today.

At the same time, it is also a discipline that improves people's judgment, analysis, and comprehension skills.

Mathematics allows you to think about any problem more carefully and not distractedly.

It can also make your brain reflect flexibly and deal with emergencies more rationally.

Therefore, when modern people understand his importance, they make up for the shortcomings of the Nobel Prize and set up many awards for him.

After the old professor finished the announcement, a group of volunteers who looked like college students entered the venue, each holding a large box in their hands.

This box contains the questions for today's exam.

For the sake of fairness and in case of cheating, the questions are all drawn.

All the students present formed a group, and each group had a different topic.

A thin and tall male student wearing glasses actually folded his hands and prayed at the scene, hoping to draw a simple question.

This item also examines the psychological quality of the contestants, and some of them have sweaty palms, increased friction, and accidentally draw out two questions.

Most of them frowned after drawing the questions.

"Oh my God, I'm not going to draw the world's unsolved mysteries, am I?"

"I'm dizzy! No, my topic is the hardest in the audience, right? ”

"Uh, is it too late to quit?"

"I should be able to solve this problem, but it won't be a year later."

"Whoever came up with a question wouldn't be a question they couldn't solve, so I drew it."

"The person who solved this problem must not have been born yet, right?"

“.”

Even the players who did not frown could not see the ease on their faces, and everyone was complaining, which was very different from the scene on the first day.

Yesterday was nothing more than an appetizer.

"Professor Zhang, these students actually discussed at the competition site, do you want to go over and support them?" Director Li didn't seem to be able to stand it anymore.

Professor Zhang raised his right hand tremblingly and waved it, his eyebrows full of indifference.

"Hey~ out of the way! The topics of each group are different, don't worry! They don't have a chance to negotiate. ”

Dr. Zhao, who was just about to scold him, heard this, and swallowed back the words to his mouth.

Professor You was a little worried when he saw the students with sad faces, after all, there were students he taught himself.

She wondered if this was just the first level of a project.

According to common sense, there will be no such imagination, and the top students have always been optimistic and full of confidence.

The person who can appear at this competition site is not as simple as being the first in the school.

This is a top student from all over the country, and the best of the best are selected.

This kind of thing really shouldn't be.

However, she didn't participate too much in the math group's problems, so she didn't know what kind of questions it was, which stumped these outstanding students.

However, the judges sitting next to her had a math group and participated in the problem.

The students whispered a discussion below, and then the judges sat down on the judges' bench and began to discuss.

Professor You saw that everyone was discussing, and she felt that there was no need to be too rigid and silent at this moment.

After all, there are also their own students, and if you communicate more, you may be able to understand their question routines.

If you don't use it this time, you may be able to use it for the next class of students. In short, there is no harm.

She took the initiative to ask Professor Yang next to her.

"Professor Yang, I remember that you seemed to be involved in the math group this time?"

Professor Yang is probably an old man in his sixties, although his head is clear, but his body is somewhat sluggish.

Ben came to retirement age, but because there were some projects that only he knew best, he was hired back.

He has not been paying much attention to the emerging talents in this scientific field lately, and Professor You is one of the people he observes.

When he first learned the news in the circle, he was shocked.

When I learned that he was just a female middle school teacher at the beginning, and then thought about the level of doctoral students under my current command, I couldn't help but feel sad.

Since then, I have wanted to meet Professor You.

But because of the difference between men and women, I don't want to give others a chance to spread nonsense.

What's more, he felt that he was a more senior old professor, and it was not suitable to fall down to meet a young man.

So his arrogant pride led him to prefer not to see it.

Now he happened to take the initiative to talk, and it really surprised him.

He was calm on the surface, but happy inside.

"That's right, are you trying to ask me what's wrong?"

In order to get the answer as soon as possible, Professor You hurried to the rainbow fart.

"Really, I can't hide anything from you."

"This time the problem is really difficult, I came up with a super complex composite function, which I have studied all my life to understand."

"It's difficult, so that they can exercise more and understand that there are still higher peaks to climb in mathematics as soon as possible."

But that's not what he thinks in his heart, and he takes out something that he has studied all his life and asks a student to answer it.

It is estimated that the old professor might have been able to cry when he encountered this situation back then.

It's really a wave of unevenness, and I hope it will rise again.

"Their expressions. I expected it a long time ago. How many questions did I come up with? Dr. Li from the Mathematics group was both helpless and proud.

"Dr. Li, what's wrong with you to embarrass these top students like this?" Mathematics researcher Xiao Sun was puzzled.

"I've been working on the Fermat conjecture lately"

Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Sun, a math researcher, took the words in shock.

"You're not going to tell me that you've put this into their question, are you?" After speaking, he swallowed nervously.

"I've just incorporated some of the details of this conjecture into the title."

Professor You sat next to him and heard this in disbelief.
