All of them selected by the national team are top Olympians, and they always carry various Olympiad problems in their bags, some of which have already been solved, and some that cannot be solved without breaking their heads.

In contrast, one of them was a little more difficult. Wang Zhong was about to answer the question, but Mu Lan took out the first letter paper from his schoolbag and smiled: "My question should be more difficult, try this."

Then he took out two more pieces of paper and two pens, and handed them to Jiang Chen and Wang Zhong respectively.

Such a test was inevitable. Jiang Chen read the question, and he already had a problem-solving method in his mind, and there were two ways, one easy and the other difficult, and it could be done in ten minutes at most.

"That's it," Wang Zhong's face was still gloomy, Mu Lan was ready, and the watch started timing.

"start!"

As soon as Mu Lan's crisp voice sounded, the two of them quickly calculated. The people around were basically at the level of academic masters.

It seems that Wang Zhong is indeed faster, but he has been calculating on the scratch paper, and Jiang Chen has already written the steps on the letterhead.

Time passed by minute by minute, and as five minutes passed by 880, everyone felt nervous in their hearts, wondering who would win after the champion and the third runner-up met?

Jiang Chen glanced at his watch. At ten o'clock, the math Olympiad teacher would come on time, and they could check the results at that time, so he deliberately slowed down, but at exactly ten o'clock, he said, "It's done."

"Nine minutes." A flash of surprise flashed in Mu Lan's eyes. He knew that Jiang Chen had won the National Mathematical Olympiad Championship, and he also knew the difficulty of the problem in his heart, but he didn't expect that it would be solved within ten minutes.

Definitely a master.

It just so happened that the Math Olympiad teacher also came. Seeing their battle, he couldn't help asking, "What are you guys doing? Why are you all here so early?"

"I found a problem before I came here. The two of them competed and had some fun." Jiang Chen held the letterhead tightly in his hand, and talked to the math Olympiad teacher for two minutes before Wang Zhongcai stood with the full letterhead. It took him fifteen minutes to get up.

Among them, everyone did not care about the six-minute gap, and they all waited for the results to come out.

"Then let's see which of the two of you wins," Mathematical Olympiad teacher took the letterhead from the two of them after speaking. The three of them stood aside to discuss, and found that there was a flash of light in the eyes of the three of them.

Everyone's heart was raised in their throats, and they didn't know who would win and who would lose.

Chapter [-]: Sino-US exchange of students

Mu Lan looked at the increasingly exciting expressions on the faces of the three teachers, and held her hands tightly together, because she was not sure this time, who would win?

The three teachers watched for about 20 minutes, and one of them walked quickly to Jiang Chen, holding the letterhead and asked him excitedly, "Can you tell us the specific steps? The answer is right, that is, I don't quite understand."

Can't understand?

The surrounding students were a little stunned, and then heard another teacher announce the result: "This time, Jiang Chen won your competition. He used the simplest algorithm to write the answer, and he also used two methods."

"Wang Zhong's final answer is correct, but the process is unclear and it is too complicated. We do not recommend adopting it." Math Olympiad teacher frowned, obviously very displeased with Wang Zhong.

All three of them belong to the Olympic Committee. This time, they are responsible for going abroad with the Chinese team, and are responsible for the safety of these ten students who are going to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad.

"Teacher," Wang Zhong's heart seemed to be drained of energy, and there was a dim light in his eyes. He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything and retreated to a corner.

Jiang Chen came back to his senses and began to talk about some substitution problems in this question.

The others also reacted, and they all gathered around and stared at Jiang Chen's explanation. If this question is used in the future, it can also be calculated with a simple algorithm, and it will not be as difficult to write a long series of reasoning as before.

After listening to the explanation, Mu Lan began to have a new understanding of Jiang Chen.

"So that's how it is," one of the math Olympiad teachers patted Jiang Chen's shoulder and said with admiration, "Good boy, you deserve to be the national math Olympiad champion, this time you go abroad, maybe you can win back a championship for the Chinese team. Woolen cloth."

In the last International Mathematical Olympiad, the Chinese team lost to a foreign team by one point, so it missed the championship.

"I will try my best". Although Jiang Chen is very confident in his own strength, in order not to cause public outrage, it is not necessary to pretend to be coercive now.

This is the end of the interlude in the middle.

Afterwards, the three teachers took them to lunch. The air tickets had been booked three days ago using their basic information, so after lunch, they immediately rushed to the airport and got their air tickets at [-] o'clock.

"Jiang Chen," Mu Lan followed Jiang Chen's footsteps. Because of the hot weather, she put a baseball cap on her head and said with a smile, "You shocked a lot of people this morning, as expected. The National Math Olympiad champion is so powerful."

Jiang Chen has always taken advantage of others' compliments.

"I still have several Olympiad problems. I can only write the first part each time, but I can't write the latter part at all. When I go to the United States, can you take the time to help me look at it." Mu Lan has great feelings for Jiang Chen. Interested, and kept pestering him to talk non-stop.

Wang Zhong was at the back of the team. He knew that in the match this morning, he lost face, so he kept thinking, how can he get his face back?

But when he saw Mu Lan and Jiang Chen talking and laughing, it was difficult to calm the anger in his heart. He walked up and slammed into Jiang Chen, and then followed directly behind the three math Olympiad teachers.

"Wang Zhong, you are taking the opportunity to take revenge!" Mu Lan was very upset. She and Wang Zhong were from the same school, and she knew how much he thought about her, but she really didn't like this person who was vying for fame and fortune.

Wang Zhong raised his eyebrows as if he didn't see anything, Mu Lan stomped his feet fiercely, but Jiang Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, generally only those who have nothing to do will do it deliberately, just get used to it. ."

Being attacked again, Wang Zhong's complexion has darkened.

Under the smooth leadership of the three teachers, they boarded the plane directly. I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, but Mu Lan and Jiang Chen's seats were actually connected, and Wang Zhong was in a row behind them.

During the trip, Jiang Chen always felt that he would be very boring. He didn't expect that although there was trouble, Wang Zhong's expression made him feel good.

Because in this world, you will never be jealous of a person who is worse than you. If you are jealous of a person and show his face, it means that that person is better than you.

The flight time this time was four hours. Everyone started to sleep when they were tired, and Mu Lan was no exception. Probably because she didn't sleep well, she then directly rested her head on Jiang Chen's shoulder, but she fell asleep. Extra sweet.

When Wang Zhong went to the bathroom, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and deliberately mentioned it in front of the three math Olympiad teachers, but the teachers did not see it.

After all, these students who participated in the Mathematical Olympiad are already college students, and even if they fall in love, the teacher has nothing to do with it, let alone just relying on it, and their impression of Wang Zhong is getting worse and worse.

Wang Zhong really felt that he was about to get angry. Mu Lan was sleeping on Jiang Chen's shoulder, and he was already very angry. He never expected that every time Jiang Chen saw him, he would have a very disdainful expression, which made him even more so. Burning with anger.

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders, and it seemed that he would not have a better time in the competition.Still, being able to get mad at another person at any time seems like a good feeling, at least not so boring.

Wang Zhong always felt that this time on the plane was like suffering. After four hours of suffering, the plane finally landed slowly at the airport in the United States.
