Soviet Godfather

Vol 3 Chapter 5: 1 battle to become famous

   "Are we sure?" Xie Liaosha stabbed the deputy leader next to him, and asked with some worry.

"There is still some certainty, but in recent years many teams have made rapid progress. Romania, Hungary, the Federal Republic of Germany and the United States all have the strength to win the championship. I can only say that everyone is hopeful, but no one has absolute strength." The professor introduced to Xie Liaosha while holding a test paper to calculate.

Xie Liaosha also took a test paper, glanced briefly, fortunately the question was understandable, and there were some ideas at a glance, but when he picked up paper and pen to try to solve it, he found himself There is no way to start.

   "Are you interested in these too?" The professor beside him inadvertently saw that Xie Liaosha was also working on the problem, so he asked in particular.

"Yeah! It's easy at first, but who knows if you think about it carefully, but there is no idea at all!" Xie Liaosha looked at the professor scratching like a child who was called to the blackboard but couldn't make a problem. The back of his head.

"Yes! These questions are like this. The purpose is not to examine the amount of knowledge of these children, but to examine the flexibility and skill of solving math problems. Look at me, so far I have only made one problem!" The test paper was shown to Xie Liaosha, and as he said, only one caption was written on it. While the two were still racking their brains to try to solve the problem, there was a burst of exclamation from the audience, and a student had already handed in the paper in less than an hour.

   Xie Liaosha and the professor hurriedly stood up to see which guy did it so fast. As a result, it was hard to see who else Grigory could be. Xie Liaosha wondered if it was a mess, was it messed up playing poker with him, so he abstained. Sergei feels a little regretful, not that any child of this age can stand on such a big stage. The deputy leader professor sitting next to him ran to the front to observe the judges' scoring up close.

   Several judges whispered to each other, and the deputy leader professor also craned his neck to look in their direction, as did Xie Liaosha. I saw several judges talking around the paper, some shaking their heads, some nodding. After another half an hour, the second person who turned in the paper still did not show up. Grigory sat on the players' bench and played the poker that Sergei gave him. The judges always seemed to reach a consensus and began to nod frequently. Before they officially announced the final results, the deputy team leader already raised his clenched fists excitedly. Xie Liaosha knew at a glance that he had a good grade.

   After a while, the word 42 appeared below the electronic screen in the stadium, and suddenly there was a neat exclamation on the scene! At this time, the deputy leader also came back, with a cheerful expression on his face.

   "How is it, did you do well in the exam?" Xie Liaosha asked hurriedly.

"What is called is not bad, it is simply a genius among geniuses. Do you know what 42 points mean? 42 points means full marks, and the judges told me that it uses a new solution, which is simpler. Take a look. Up to now, there is no second hand in paper. Grigory is definitely the smartest among them, none of them. Even I am a little jealous of his talent, but I personally discovered a promising mathematician and looked at him. He has defeated his surrounding opponents and expects him to solve the top problems that generations of geniuses have been unable to solve in their entire lives. This feeling is also indescribable!" The professor was excited and introduced Grigory to Sergei. How amazing. Not only the deputy leader, but almost everyone on the scene except the players is paying attention to him.

After more than two hours, the game has lasted for nearly 4 hours. At this time, the second player to hand in the paper has just appeared. Unfortunately, he is not from the Soviet Union. The word 28 soon appeared under the USA. Obviously, this The contestant only got four questions right.

As the time for the end of the game draws closer, the number of players handing in the paper gradually increases. The national teams have scored certain points. The poorest country only scored 7 points, and the competition with the USA was also Except for Grigory, the scores of the first three Soviet players who turned in the paper were pretty good, but the latter two players did not perform well. In the case of the Americans, on the contrary, their scores also came from behind and gradually caught up.

   With the end of the long five-hour game, the score on the scoreboard was finally frozen, tied for the first place with the USA score, and the Federal Republic of Germany ranked third. The first day of the game eliminated most of the representative teams and only three teams were left to compete for the second day of the gold, silver and bronze medal finals. The Soviet delegation is satisfied with this result, anyway, this time it will definitely win a medal.

   When he left the stadium, Sergei was waiting outside for Grigory's figure. When he finally walked out, his pockets were bulging and he didn't know what was full.

   "What are you in here? Did you secretly bring some souvenirs?" Xie Liaosha asked curiously. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

   "I don't know, they all came here!" Grigory said, he went to dig out his pocket, but a bunch of cards fell out, and Sergey squatted down and picked it up to check.

   Yale, Harvard, MIT, Stanford. Needless to say, Xie Liaosha understood that even the Americans admired this kid and wanted to keep him.

   "Don't you have any favorites?" Xie Liaosha asked casually. Grigory shook his head, and then said, "Aren't you going to transfer to Leningrad University this year? I happen to be from Leningrad too. Isn't it good for me to be a classmate with you when I am admitted to Leningrad University?"

   "But... okay! Then I'll be waiting for you at school!" Seresha stretched out his palm, and Grigory responded with a high-five, and the two had agreed.

On the way back, the team leader wanted to find a place to celebrate, but because the next day’s game was scheduled in the morning, the delegation did not celebrate too much, just took the children out for a pizza and went back to the hotel to rest. Now, not only the team leader, everyone is full of expectations for the next day of the game. After all, Grigory of the Soviet delegation is so good. With him, it is difficult for the Soviets to lose.

Sergey Sha has already decided that he will never talk to Grigory about 21 o'clock in the evening. He must rest early and defeat these Americans tomorrow. So once he returns to the hotel, Sergey will accept it. After playing all the poker, I lay on the bed early after washing up. Regardless of Grigory's plea, Sergey Sha just doesn't play blackjack with him.

   "Can't you try a few more? I made some corrections?..." At Grigory's constant requests, Sergei turned off the light cruelly.
