I Don’t Want to Win Lying Down

Xu Mang, who was lying on the bed, listened to the sound of running water, and was thinking about how to explain the next thing to Xiaoman.

moment,

The sound of running water stopped.

Immediately afterwards, Violent Airport walked out of the bathroom, walked to Xu Mang's side, and said softly, Sleep on the side.

Without hesitation, Xu Mang quickly lay down on the cold side.

When Xiaoman lay down, Xu Mang lingered up to her, hugged her in his arms, and said with a smile, It smells so good when I go, what kind of shower gel do you use?

very expensive!

The shower gel I wash costs several thousand. Yang Xiaoman twisted her body and leaned into Xu Mang's arms as much as possible, with her head on her chest, and said in a low voice, How have you been these two days? Boss Is it so enthusiastic?

ah?

Oh, it's nothing, it's just because you are so beautiful. Xu Mang said with a smile, Xiaoman, I have one thing I want to ask you for?

snort!

I knew you had no good intentions. Yang Xiaoman rolled her eyes and whispered softly, Speak.

Can you memorize more questions? Xu Mang said: I just received a call from Teacher Teng from the Mathematics Department of Jiangxi University, reminding me that I am the person who set up the questions for this year's Zhejiang Provincial Mathematical Olympiad. forget

I think it's better for students in Zhejiang Province to experience some of the types of questions in international competitions, and see how far the so-called top high school students are from the top international players. Xu Mang said, By the way, we haven't banned Mathematical Olympiads, why are there still so many of them? Olympiad competition?

Yang Xiaoman shook his head, and said silently: I don't know, we were really miserable in the International Mathematical Olympiad recently.

Xu Mang didn't know much about these things, but he used TikTok to watch all kinds of science popularization by awesome bigwigs, and then found a problem. Many people defined the math ability of foreign students as mentally retarded.

certainly,

Xu Mang didn't know if those big shots were right or not, so he went to Princeton University this time to see if the real situation was the same as what the so-called big shots on the Internet said.

In fact, Xu Mang already had an answer to this question.

I can't stand his stubborn character.

Fool!

Have you finished your visa? Yang Xiaoman asked.

Um.

I fixed it before I came here. Xu Mang said with a smile: It's settled like this. When the time comes, help me memorize some questions, er, memorize the most difficult questions.

Can you be a human being? Yang Xiaoman rolled her eyes: The contestants are here to compete, not for your autism.

Xu Mang said embarrassingly, I'll just experiment. Anyway, I'll tell Teacher Teng when the time comes. He's the general manager. I think it's a trend to move the topic closer to internationalization. You have to take a long-term view.

What if it gets exposed? Yang Xiaoman said worriedly.

It's none of my business, I'll come up with the questions. Xu Mang said with a serious face, Can I come up with such a question without the head nodding? Can the contestants do the questions without the head nodding?

You really are not human! Yang Xiaoman said helplessly, You beast!

words fall,

Xiaoman's pretty face glowed red, and she whispered: Hey beast, when will you do what a beast should do?

sorry!

I'm a man worse than a beast. Xu Mang said seriously, Sleep!

Yang Xiaoman: Convex

this day,

Finally headed to Princeton University.

Xu Mang had already applied for the temporary position of teaching assistant and set off with the representative team.

The leading professor, surnamed Wu, is a good-tempered mathematics professor. Xu Mang found out in the conversation with Professor Wu that Professor Wu not only has a good temper, but also seems to be a real giant. He knows many Fields Medal winners.

well

We were originally the champions of this competition. Professor Wu said, It turned out that you were suspended, which was beyond my expectation.

Isn't this their usual trick? If you can't beat it, you will be banned from the game. Xu Mang said with a smile: By the way, Professor Wu, which field of mathematics do you study?

The application of partial differential equations, metric geometry, and probability. Professor Wu said, Have you done any research on these issues?

No!

I'm in physics. Xu Mang shook his head hastily. He really didn't have much feeling for mathematics.

at this time,

There is still an hour until takeoff.

Xu Mang simply wandered around the airport with Xiaoman. It was strange to say that no one came to see off the team representing the country.

well?

What's going on over there? Xu Mang pointed to a group of people in the distance, and asked curiously, Did something happen?

Probably a star.

Didn't you see that they were all taking pictures with their mobile phones? Yang Xiaoman said, Only celebrities have this kind of momentum.

oh

After watching for a few minutes,

Xu Mang observed that a man wearing a mask walked to the so-called VIP lounge under the support of a man, and then a group of people stood outside the glass wall, taking photos with their mobile phones.

Who is this?

Why don't I know him? Xu Mang said with a confused face, Is he a big star?

I don't know him either, maybe someone who just debuted. Yang Xiaoman shook his head.

Well

It looks like this,

It's not as handsome as the 0.1% of this prosperous beauty.

By the way, why can't we rest in the VIP room? Xu Mang asked, We're going out to participate in international competitions, to win international honors.

Stop complaining.

If you're really upset, you can buy the airport. Yang Xiaoman said angrily, This is reality.

for a long time,

Xu Mang and his group boarded the plane and started their next journey

get off a plane,

He took the bus directly to Princeton, because he had reserved a room in advance, so he only needed to check in with his bags. However, Xu Mang encountered a little trouble because he was temporarily inserted as a teaching assistant and there was no room for him.

In the end, they could only live in the same room with Xiaoman. Professor Wu knew that the two were lovers, so he simply turned a blind eye, and still did not forget the kind reminder.

Don't stay up late at night, don't do anything unrelated to rest. Professor Wu said seriously.

Xu Mang:? ? ?

Yang Xiaoman:? ? ?

Soon the two of them understood the meaning of Professor Wu's words.

this night,

Nothing happened.

the next day,

Princeton University,

It was the first time for Xu Mang to feel the atmosphere of a famous private research university, but the house was a little old and felt like a house of more than a hundred years. Although it was quite classic, it felt a little dangerous.

Due to the tight schedule, after Xu Mang participated in the opening ceremony as a teaching assistant, he began to help Professor Wu to guess the questions.

The rules of the game are simple,

There are only two days, and there is only one paper for each day, with fifty questions on the paper, a total of one hundred questions.

out of five hundred,

Individual awards will be awarded with the highest score, and then ranked in order, and group awards will be ranked in order based on the total scores of five people.

at this time,

Xu Mang opened Shi Jie's notebook in the team, connected to the hotel's wireless network, and downloaded nearly ten years of PUMaC questions. He wanted to work with Professor Wu to make a systematic summary of all the questions in the past ten years, and then based on the probability Learn and count the probability of tomorrow's topic.

According to previous years' experience, the first ten questions are sub-questions, and the last five questions are proposition questions, so the key point for winning is the middle thirty-five questions. Professor Wu said: Geometry and number theory accounted for 8% Ten, algebra problems only accounted for twenty percent.

so.

We strengthen the analysis of geometry and number theory. Professor Wu said, Xiao Xu, is your number theory good?

ah?

It's not bad. Xu Mang nodded, and said silently, But Professor, I think the ratio of topics this year will change a lot.

oh?

Talk about your opinion. Professor Wu asked curiously.

I took a closer look at the topics of the past ten years. Xu Mang frowned and said, The first three years were very targeted, but from the fourth year onwards, the topics became a bit weird, until the seventh year , and began to develop comprehensively.”

Especially for last year's topic, the ratio of singularity to comprehensiveness was 30-70. Xu Mang said, I think this year's topic is either 30-70 or 20-80.

Um!

If it is comprehensive, it is very difficult to bet on the subject. Professor Wu said: I have heard before that the current trend is to cultivate students' comprehensive ability, especially in the field of mathematics.

Xu Mang had also heard of this argument, and he especially believed in this argument, although it violated the so-called single superiority and directly set its comprehensive benefits.

But in Xu Mang's explanation, science is the foundation of human development, and mathematics is the foundation of scientific development. Taking his own physics as an example, it's really useless to only know geometry, and sometimes you have to use combinations.

noon,

After having lunch with the members of the representative team, Xu Mang nestled in the hotel room, constantly trying the possibility of tomorrow's topic.

Then,

Autistic.

Can the system tell me tomorrow's topic?

【cannot】

Can the system tell me and Xiaoman whether the child is a boy or a girl?

【able】

Xu Mang: Σ(`д'*ノ)ノ

Fuck!

Your system is very broken!

Can tell me the gender of the future child, but can't tell me tomorrow's topic?

Xu Mang was so angry, what was meant to be a joke turned out to be a heart-piercing pain.

Whoops

This heart is so cool.

In the end, Xu Mang gave up the unwise practice of guessing a hundred questions. In terms of probability, this possibility was too small, so they had to rely on their own strength.

certainly,

It was impossible to predict the overall situation, but Xu Mang could make precise strikes on the local area. For example, the last five major questions add up to ten.

If you rely on scientific means, you can guess three out of ten questions, or even more questions.

Let's work!

When Yang Xiaoman came back from shopping and saw Xu Mang sleeping soundly in front of the computer, he couldn't help showing a helpless expression.

I guess the account has been blocked again. Yang Xiaoman sighed, It's so good to play a game.

He took a blanket and was about to drape it over Xu Mang's body, when he saw ten math problems on the laptop screen.

well?

What's this?

Yang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and carefully observed the ten math problems, but they were not really math problems, because there were no numbers on them, they were all pure words.

Big question number one,

The combination of number theory and geometry has a high probability of appearing

Yang Xiaoman: (￣△￣;)

What the hell?

When you are a forecaster?
