I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 276 Best score! IMO's No.1 and No.2!
The IMO International Mathematical Olympiad is the world's most famous science competition for middle school students. As a science competition with the longest history, the greatest influence and the highest recognition in the world, its results conference and award ceremony attract much attention every time. , In recent years, the webcast will be broadcast on the IMO official website. All countries in the world can directly watch the live video through the IMO official website.

At this moment, the IMO results are about to be released, and almost all countries in the world have a large number of mathematics professionals or mathematics enthusiasts, and even political figures, are watching this webcast.

There is a six-hour time difference between Norway and Xia Guo. In Norway, it is more than [-] o'clock in the evening. Converted to the standard Xia Guo time, it is more than [-] o'clock in the morning. It is the time when most people fall asleep, but there are also many people in Xia Guo. While drinking strong tea to refresh himself, he was concentrating on the computer screen, anxiously and nervously waiting for the announcement of the result.

Among them are Wang Yuan, the principal of Yingyuan Private High School, Wen Jianzhao, the vice-principal, Wei Wenping, the head teacher of Class [-] and [-], and Zheng Jianzhou, the mathematics teacher; Shi Cunyuan and Lin Haibo, who have always regarded Qin Ke as his students; Shen Tieshan's grandfather, Ning Qingyun's grandfather and grandmother...

Qin Ke's younger sister, Qin Xiaoke, also secretly turned on the Apple laptop under the covers, clenched her fists, stared at the screen intently, repeating the word "gold" that she had memorized not long ago. medal", and nervously looking forward to the names of "QIN KE" and "NING QING YUN" that will appear later.

In a certain residence in the capital, Hao Jianchang, chairman of the National Olympic Committee, was also guarding in front of the laptop in the room. His wife yawned and pushed her husband: "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, why are you looking at the computer?"

Hao Jianchang made a silent gesture and said, "The IMO results will be announced soon. There are six contestants from our country..."

"Isn't your secretary going to tell you the result tomorrow morning? The results have been similar in recent years. What is there to be concerned about? Go to sleep, you have high blood pressure and you can't stay up late."

Hao Jianchang showed a smug smile: "It doesn't matter if it's half a night. Yesterday, the deputy coach of the national team, Deng Hongguo, sent back news that our country is likely to win two gold medals. I must see this scene with my own eyes."

"Gold medal?" His wife sat up suddenly. Although she is not an educational person, she also knows what it means to win a gold medal in IMO: "Our country hasn't won a gold medal for many years, right? I remember last year and the year before that even You don’t even have a bronze medal, and you’re so angry that you can’t even eat.”

"It's been 13 years, the last time the national Olympiad team won the gold medal was 13 years ago..." Hao Jianchang sighed with emotion: "If we can really bring back two gold medals this time, it will greatly boost the morale of our country! I can read this year's work report straight up! You don't know, I used to have no confidence to lift my head when I made a work report at the end of the year!"

"But that's an IMO gold medal... Can our national team really get two?"

"It's definitely possible. This time the national team has Qin Ke who is known as the 'Number One Mathematically Genius High School Student in Xia Country'. As long as he performs normally, he can win a gold medal 100% of the time. Academician Ning and Academician Ji The couple's daughter is also more than [-]% sure that she will win the gold medal... You must know that in order to let her go abroad to compete, I have spent a lot of effort and called my superiors dozens of times."

"Is it Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun? I also heard from my neighbors that having such an excellent child can really boast for a lifetime, but unfortunately our son is not a material for studying... Forget it, let's not mention him, are we going to announce the results now? ?”

"Immediately, after this speech session is over, the results of the competition will be announced. Look, it's started."

Hao Jianchang clenched his fists subconsciously, and the couple held their breaths.

A similar scene happened to almost everyone who followed this IMO results conference.

At the venue in Norway, the voice of IMO Chairman Jeff Rowland echoed in everyone's ears through the microphone.

"A total of ten gold medals were born in this IMO, and No.1 is..."

"QIN KE (Qin Ke) from the Xia Guo representative team! His score is 70 (+1) points!"

"No.2 is also from Xia Guo's representative team, NING QING YUN (Ning Qingyun)! Her score is 70 points!"

"No.2 is also tied for No. [-] from the US representative team, Grant Hill (Grant Hill), and from the Bear Country..."

……

"No.10, from the Xia Guo representative team, WANG CHANG AI (Wang Changai)! His score is 54.5 points!"

"Congratulations to the above players, they are all gold medalists of our IMO this year!"

Enthusiastic applause resounded throughout the audience, followed by countless whispers.

"Three members of the Xia Guo team won the gold medal this time? The U.S. team is just Hill and Fernando who won the gold medal!"

"What a surprise, Xia Guo has completed a magnificent counterattack!"

"Isn't Xia Guo reduced to a third-rate level? How can there be three gold medalists?"

"I vaguely heard rumors that a high school student from Xia Guo created a new Olympiad theory, which abruptly improved the strength of their Xia Guo team! I don't know if it's true or not..."

"Didn't you hear that the No.1 Xia Guo player was awarded (+1) points? This hasn't happened in decades, right?"

"OH MY GOD! I just noticed it when you said that! What kind of ability does this QIN KE have that can make Mr. Roland of this year's IMO willing to bear the enormous pressure that may arise, and grant this special honor?"

In the Eagle Country representative team, Lorne's face was pale, as if he had been punched hard, he did seven questions, but he didn't even get the gold medal!
On the contrary, it was his teammate Charles, who performed super-level this time and ranked ninth with 55 points, winning a gold medal.

The most unacceptable thing for him was that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, Xia Guo's high school students whom he didn't pay attention to at first, won the No.1 and No.2 gold medals!And Qin Ke still has 70 (+1) points!

This (+1) point is very rare, and it can even be called an honor!
This happened only once in the history of IMO. At that time, it was the seventh IMO competition, and there were seven gold medals with full marks. The full-score gold medalist for the big question will be treated as "(+1) points", and he will be set as No.1 to encourage this innovative spirit.

But this behavior was also controversial. After all, IMO did not announce this regulation at the time. In the end, IMO had to repeatedly issue announcements to explain the significance of this move, but it still failed to calm the boiling controversy. As a result, in the next few decades, IMO No chairman of any session has awarded (+1) points to the gold medalist.

Even last year, two innovative solutions were used to solve the finale, and the judges called Hill the genius of the US team. He only stated that he was the No.1 gold medal when he announced the score, and did not have (+1) points. treatment.

But now, this (+1) point is actually given to Qin Ke, a player of Xia Guo's representative team!Why?Why?
Lorne lost his mind here, but on the podium, the reading of the results continued.

Xia Guo's representative team has surprisingly good results!

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun won the gold medal easily, Wang Changai also won a gold medal by rubbing the gold medal line, Wei Yuyuan won the silver medal by 1.5 points beyond the silver medal line, Sun Bingfei and Liang Shaoping also successfully won the bronze medal!
There are six members of Xia Guo's representative team, each with a medal!
Thunderous cheers erupted from Xia Guo's representative team!

The team leader Wang Cunren who had been "released" was full of excitement and joy, and the deputy team leader Deng Hongguo next to him was in tears.

At this moment, Deng Hongguo felt that even if he was buried, he could close his eyes in peace.Even with the best results in the history of Xia Guo's Olympiad, there has never been such an excellent result as winning the first No.2 in IMO!

With tears in his eyes, he looked at the cheering team members in front of him. He felt the greatest satisfaction in this moment for the countless hard work he had put in in his life for the Summer Olympics.

Qin Ke opened his arms with a smile, and Ning Qingyun threw himself into his arms excitedly with a red face, and hugged him tightly: "Qin Ke, I really did it, I really did it! Thank you! Thank you you!"

IMO gold medal!And it's a gold medal with full marks!This is a brilliant achievement that Ning Qingyun, who only won a dozen or so provincial competitions last year, did not even dare to think about!And all of this is due to the boy next to her who persistently accompanied her and gave her special training, so that she could win this incomparably precious medal!
Wang Changai, Sun Bingfei, Wei Yuyuan, and Liang Shaoping next to him also screamed and hugged each other, bouncing around like children who haven't grown up.

How could they not be excited?
Originally, during the training camp, their goal of going all out was just the IMO bronze medal, and it was still a lofty existence that was expected but not necessarily attainable, but now not only the bronze medal, but also the silver and gold medals have been taken off!
For them, it was like a dream!Even Wang Changai, who has always been silent and doesn't know how to express his feelings, had tears in his eyes, his lips moved and he couldn't say a word.

After the mood calmed down a little, the four of them bowed to Wang Cunren, Deng Hongguo, and Qin Ke successively to express their gratitude.

"Thank you two coaches, thank you Teacher Qin!"

……

And in the distant country of Xia, in the principal's office of Yingyuan Private High School in Yuanzhou City, Wang Yuan, the principal who had taken the heart-saving pill in advance, was trembling with excitement. If Wen Jianzhao hadn't held him tightly, he would have almost fainted.

"Jianzhao... Has our school produced two IMO gold medalists? Am I right?"

Wen Jianzhao couldn't hide his excitement: "Yes, and they are also the No.1 and No.2 of this year's IMO! Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun... will never let us down, they will only bring us infinite happiness. surprise!"

"We must reward them heavily! Heavy!" Wang Yuan took a few deep breaths and clenched his fists forcefully: "In a week, I will officially retire. Before that, I don't want my old face anymore. Two gifted students will be rewarded heavily, and I will not leave on the board of directors!"
