"Big Brother Xiu, are you really confident? It'll be embarrassing if we lose!"
Compared to Tang Xiu's calmness, his three roommates were even more anxious. It was obvious that the emperor wasn't in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry.
"Don't worry!" "A 20-digit calculation competition?" Tang Xiu said indifferently,"He even dared to say that. You should know that in our country's abacus mental arithmetic team, a 10-year-old child can do 14-digit calculations. With a little training, he can easily beat him."”
"Didn't the other party say that he won the abacus mental arithmetic world championship at the age of eight and that he would be ranked in the top three in the next few years?" Wang Siyan asked curiously.”
"Listen to him!" "He's not participating in a real world competition at all." Tang Xiu sneered and said,"The authoritative World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition is held once every two years, and the fifth one just ended this year. I reckon that it's held in the US, so it can't reflect his true level."”
When his roommates heard this, they heaved a sigh of relief. The most important thing was that the other party's title as the world champion had scared them. Only then did they realize that the World Abacus Mental Arithmetic Competition had only been held for five times, and the championship had all been won by China. Since when did it have anything to do with the Americans?
Are you participating in an entertainment program?
After another three minutes, Tom had also finished answering his questions. At this time, he was no longer as calm as before. His forehead was covered in sweat. He was hot and nervous.
Big Nose handed him a bottle of mineral water and asked in a low voice,""How is it?"
" Yes!" Tom took a sip of water and nodded." I took the time to check it and make sure it's all right!"”
Big Nose sighed softly.”
Would there be a mistake?
After another five minutes, the blonde finally used the calculation software to calculate the answers to all fifteen questions.
When she came up with the questions, she wrote the numbers randomly. Now that it was her turn to calculate, she realized that this kind of competition was simply inhuman. Let alone calculating, she had already entered the 40-digit numbers of an algorithm wrongly several times. In the end, she had to add someone else to check.
After checking Tang Xiu's answer sheet, the blonde beauty took a deep breath and then looked up. She then spoke to the students who were looking forward to it,
"All right!"
Although it was just two words, its power was no less than a nuclear bomb. It immediately caused a huge commotion.
"Really? Are you working together to deceive people?"
"It's true! I checked the answer sheet myself.”
"Is there such a monster in the world? The invention of the calculator is an insult to him!”
"No, I have to do a topology-related exercise to calm my nerves. I can't learn this kind of pure calculation problem.”
Everyone was amazed by Tang Xiu's computing speed. If it wasn't for the fact that they didn't know anything about medicine, they would have dissected it to see how the brain grew.
Everyone's praise and admiration were focused on Tang Xiu. As for Tom's answer sheet…
There was no need to look anymore!
Tom sat on the ground with a pale face. His originally fluffy golden hair was drenched in sweat, and he looked like a defeated golden retriever.
Big Nose walked over and patted him on the shoulder, comforting him,"
"It's okay, it's just a failure. We're not primary school students anymore, and our field of study isn't pure calculation. It's not embarrassing to lose in this aspect.”
"In the future, when you propose a new idea in the field of mathematics and prove an old conjecture, the honor you will receive will not be comparable to this small stage today!”
After some comforting, Tom's mood improved slightly. He looked at his watch with his big nose and quickly said,""Oh right, the report is about to start. Let's hurry!”
At this time, Tang Xiu and his roommates were already sitting in the lecture theater. The classroom that could originally accommodate 500 people was not only full of seats, but even the aisle was full of people.
This was because the next report would invite famous professors from all over the world to come on stage and share their views and opinions on the field of mathematics.
This was something that couldn't be learned from textbooks. Sometimes, a sentence from a senior could change a student's life. No one was willing to miss such an opportunity.
The report was carried out in an orderly manner. Representatives from the relevant fields of topologies, number theory, geometry, and other sub-disciplines gave a brief introduction to let the freshmen know what they would face in the future and what field they would choose to study.
There were also professors who talked about their recent research results, such as Riemann Manifolds, Singular Perturbation Theory, Symplexin Set difference method, and so on.
However, the progress of the report was suddenly interrupted by a professor.
This was an Indian professor named Wakas from the Bombay Institute of Technology. After he introduced the latest progress in function research, he did not bow down like the others. Instead, he changed the topic and said,
"Over the years, I've seen many talented Chinese scientists in the field of mathematics.”
Although the teachers and students of the University of Science and Technology were surprised that the other party had started to talk about irrelevant topics, they felt comfortable listening to his words and did not interfere.
Unexpectedly, the other party's words became fierce."However, when I investigated carefully, I realized that these Chinese were not Chinese citizens. Some of them had never even set foot on Chinese territory. This made me puzzled."
"Why haven't Chinese people ever won any top mathematics awards? Did no one invent a mathematical theorem? Is there no one who can prove the mathematical conjecture?"
The faces of the teachers and students from the University of Science and Technology of China darkened. Meanwhile, the teachers and students from other foreign universities were whispering to each other.
Wakas ignored the commotion below the stage and continued,"I continued to investigate and found that China's mathematics education model was wrong!”
"In India, we will give the most basic mathematics education to students who don't love mathematics, and give the highest level of mathematics education to geniuses who love mathematics. However, in China, the education you give everyone is of the same standard. You make them only know how to do questions but not think. This causes the students to not be innovative, inflexible, and impetuous. This is a waste of their mathematical talent!”
"I dare say that if China doesn't change this stupid education model, you won't be able to produce a scholar who can win the world's top award in the next five to ten years!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience immediately exploded, and all kinds of discussions could not be suppressed.
The leaders of the University of Science and Technology of China were hesitating whether they should forcefully invite him down. However, if they did that, they would be accused of interfering with the freedom of speech.
Just as they were in a dilemma, a stern shout came from the back of the classroom,
"I object to your opinion!"
