Chapter 58 Principal Qinghua Delivers Notice

Wu Yongren is a mathematics teacher at a private primary school in Shenzhen. His biggest hobby is posting on Tianya Community. That day, he saw that some of the members of the national team for the International Mathematical Olympiad were from an unknown county high school, and he expressed deep concern about this Olympiad.

He didn't think that a small county town could have any competitive strength, and its shortcomings were even more obvious compared to Qinghua High School.

Perhaps the candidates have made it into the national team by their own efforts, but they will inevitably lack the energy to perform well in international competitions, which will indirectly affect the ranking of the team's total score.

Take the students in their school for example, many of them have been participating in various competitions since elementary school.

Where can you find such an opportunity in an ordinary county?

So when faced with the rebuttal from his friends, who even brought up their status as the top pick and vowed that this member would definitely lead the team to win the championship, he not only looked down on them but also felt like laughing.

The top scorer in the college entrance examination is indeed excellent, but the content involved is, after all, basic knowledge from the textbooks.

Just be willing to work hard and study.

If you want to excel in the International Mathematical Olympiad, you need to have a natural talent for thinking.

Today, after he got home from get out of class, he opened the forum as usual, and his attention was quickly attracted by a very popular new post in the Guantian Teahouse section.

"Exclusive interview with the champion of the International Mathematical Olympiad, a math genius who came from a small county town."

"Why does it feel so familiar?"

Wu Yongren frowned after reading the title of the post, and a sense of familiarity suddenly emerged in his heart.

I suppressed the weirdness, but when I clicked on the post and saw the content, my eyes widened instantly.

The whole person was greatly shocked and his face was full of disbelief.

"This is……"

"Did Xu Yuanzhen win the Olympic gold medal?"

He had imagined that with Xu Yuan's ability, facing the increasingly difficult International Mathematical Olympiad test questions, it would be an extraordinary performance for him to pass the silver medal score. He never expected that he would actually win the gold medal.

Continuing to browse, he found that there was more to the story.

"Full score gold medal."

“First place in the overall team score.”

"Exclusive interview with Youth Daily."

As halos appeared one after another, he was dizzy and at a loss.

I just followed the post just to show off my sense of superiority, but I never expected to hit a wall and actually met a math genius.

The key point is that there are many friends in the forum attacking him.

Logically speaking, the most appropriate way at this time is to pretend to be dead, but he really can't afford to lose face.

In the end, he put his hands on the keyboard and responded with gritted teeth, determined to stick to his point of view to the end.

"It doesn't matter if he wins the Mathematical Olympiad by chance. His talent will end when he goes to college. It is almost impossible for our contestants to achieve any academic success in mathematics."

……

Lin Haoming's happy mood did not last long. Suddenly, he saw Mr. Wu's reply and was so angry that he wanted to smash the keyboard. He didn't expect that he would still be so stubborn even after being slapped in the face.

"How disgusting! How dare you curse my brother Yuan for not having any academic achievements."

When his temper flared up, he kept cursing and typing back at the keyboard, but he still firmly believed that Xu Yuan would definitely become a mathematician.

Active netizens in the forum were also very angry about this statement, but they really couldn't find a good reason to refute it.

Many of the domestic contestants who have achieved excellent results in the Mathematical Olympiad do so in order to be admitted to prestigious universities, not because they really love mathematics and want to promote its development.

Often, people choose other majors after entering university.

Even if someone sticks to the field of mathematics, the best outcome is to stay in school as a teacher.

There are very few people who can achieve academic success in mathematics and win international awards.

In the end, this farce that took place in the Guantian Teahouse section ended with Wu Yongren's statement that he would publicly apologize if Xu Yuan could achieve academic success in mathematics.

However, everyone knows that there will probably not be any follow-up to this matter.

……

"You still have some conscience, your sister's love for you is not in vain."

Xu Ying, who was already on summer vacation in Xuzhai Village, carefully read the Youth Daily newspaper she had just received and found that Xu Yuan mentioned her sister in the interview. She immediately smiled brightly and became more and more satisfied with her brother who was the top scholar.

Xu Yuan just raised his head when he heard the voice. When he thought of this interview, he recalled the fear he felt when he was dominated by the reporter that day.

It had been a few days since he came back from Yenching. Every day, apart from helping with some small chores at home, he stayed in his room to organize the proof process of the problem of infinite Carmichael number intervals.

All the manuscripts together form a thick stack.

Since there is no computer or internet at home, I certainly cannot start writing the paper right away.

We can only wait until school starts.

However, during this period he also went to the county Internet cafe twice to look up some information.

It is worth mentioning that Lin Haoming sent him a post from Tianya Community on Penguin.

Four words are revealed between the lines of the chat messages.

Outraged.

Xu Yuan took a quick look and didn't take it seriously. His time was so important that he couldn't waste it on such a clown.

What's more, the person who said this to him was Feng Zuming, a mathematics professor at Princeton University and head coach of the Americana Contest.

Others are not qualified.

As time passed, it was soon the end of July.

That morning, Xu Yuan and his sister were washing clothes at home when a whistle suddenly sounded outside the door.

He quickly threw away his clothes and went out to check, and found two black cars parked on the road in front of the door.

Just as Xu Yuan was wondering which leader this was, the car door opened and two familiar figures suddenly came into view.

"Teacher Qian and Teacher Zhou, why are you here suddenly?"

When Xu Yuan saw that the people coming were Qian Rongsen and Zhou Ru from Qinghua Admissions Office, he subconsciously called out.

School is about to start, why is the admissions office still here...

"Need I ask? Of course I'm here to give you the admission letter. The person who's here today is our Qinghua principal." Qian Rongsen said mysteriously to Xu Yuan as he walked over to help open the back door of the car.

"headmaster?"

Xu Yuan repeated the sentence in his mouth and was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and went to greet him.

"Professor Tang, no one has praised you recently. Your performance in the International Mathematical Olympiad this time was also very good."

"As the most outstanding freshman in this class, this first admission letter should be handed to you."

Gu Binglin held Xu Yuan's one hand and put the other hand on his shoulder. After he finished speaking, he took the notice from Qian Rongsen and handed it to Xu Yuan solemnly, looking at Xu Yuan with a look of satisfaction.

Xu Yuan really didn't expect that Principal Qinghua would personally deliver the admission notice to him.

He took it with both hands and thanked him immediately.

"Thank you, principal."

But the elder sister Xu Ying, who has always been carefree and outgoing, at this moment, for the first time ever, behaved like a quiet girl.

Half of his body was standing behind the gate, his face full of embarrassment.

Oh my god.

I actually met Principal Qinghua at home.

still alive.

Normally, she is very well behaved when facing teachers alone at school, let alone the department head and the principal.

Besides, this is the president of Qinghua University.

Then when Xu Yuan asked everyone to go into the house to rest, he noticed his sister's expression and couldn't help but smile in his heart.

I asked her to go out and call her parents back, and then she disappeared into the yard with a look of relief.

　The monthly tickets are doubled. If you have any, you may as well give one to support us!
