technological heresy

Exhausted
Zhou Jingxue had just noticed that Ning Qing had already started writing a thesis.Compared with other groups, this progress is significantly faster.Even if it is a group of college students, they are probably still dealing with modeling problems in the computer room at this time, but Zhou Jingxue has accepted the fact that Ning Qing is not an ordinary student, and even faintly has some different expectations.

The only thing he regrets now is that Mr. Luo tried to recommend Ning Qing to him twice, but he didn't care.The difference was that Ning Qing's group did not sign up for the interest classes they were going to, but signed up on their own.This somewhat annoyed Zhou Jingxue at this moment.

What was more troublesome were the two team members brought by Ning Qing.

This regional modeling competition is actually equivalent to a preview of the international competition. After the review, the teams that are capable of winning the national award will have to go through a defense. After being selected, they will have the opportunity to participate in the national competition. If they win in the national competition , you can directly get the national award.

Then the organizer will invite experts from the National Department of Higher Education and the Yonghan Mathematical Society to select the best batch of students from the teams rated as National First to participate in a one-month special training, and finally form two to three teams to participate next year's international competition.

Zhou Jingxue did not think about it in the international competition, because the international competition does not divide the high school group and the university group, and there is a unified question bank.In previous years, no high school student was selected to participate in the international competition.In fact, the goal of the school is to hope that some teams will stand out in the regional competition and win the national award in the high school group.

As long as one can win the National Award, even if it is only the third prize, it will be a historic breakthrough for the bilingual No. [-] Middle School.

Of course, this is not an easy task. There are a total of 227 high schools in Haizhou City. At present, only Jingya and Zhuoyou have won the National Award. This group has obtained the results of National III, and Joyo Middle School got a good result of National One last year.

If it is done well, let Ning Qing form a team with the children from the modeling interest class in the rocket class, and it is impossible to get a few recommended places in the bilingual No. [-] middle school this year.Because according to relevant policies, the top [-] team members in the high school group who won the first prize in the national competition will all have the opportunity to be recommended to top universities in the Yonghan Republic.

No matter how bad it is, there is a chance to sign a contract with a top university in advance. Generally speaking, after signing the contract, as long as the score exceeds the first line of the year, you can directly enter the top university.You must know that this is an extra recommendation quota for those top universities. Under the baton of admission rate, these quotas are extremely valuable.

In this case, Zhou Yan and Liu Xiaohan seemed to be an eyesore, purely a waste of quota.

Really, at this time, Zhou Jing's molars were almost shattered.Especially after seeing that Ning Qing only took 10 minutes to write the abstract of the thesis.The abstract can be said to be the most essential part of the competition paper. In Zhou Jingxue's opinion, Ning Qing's abstract was well written.The most important thing is that it fully complies with the format requirements of the competition paper, and it only takes one page to clearly list all the things to be expressed.

Just looking at this abstract, Zhou Jingxue would never believe that this is the first time Ning Qing has written a thesis.

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in." Zhou Jingxue responded.

Then the office door was pushed open, and half of the head came in: "Mr. Zhou, there seems to be something wrong with the computer in our group. When doing data calculations, there is always a pop-up window prompting software self-test errors. The computer has restarted several times. The same one."

Zhou Jingxue looked up, and it was Qin Qianqian, a team member he was very optimistic about, who reported the problem.

This is probably the reason why the domestic competition has to distinguish between the university group and the high school group. The ability of high school students to deal with problems independently is still a bit weak.

"Okay, I'll go and have a look."

Following Qin Qianqian to their discussion room, when passing the discussion room of Ning Qing's group, Zhou Jingxue subconsciously glanced sideways at the number on the door. The keyboard tapping sound "da da"...

I suddenly wanted to open the door and go in to have a look, but theoretically speaking, unless the students encountered some problems at this time, as a tutor, they should not disturb the competition process.

After forcibly suppressing the sudden impulse in his heart, Zhou Jingxue asked, "By the way, do you know Ning Qing?"

"I know you. We still sat at the same table for a while in the first half of the first year of high school." Qin Qianqian subconsciously replied.

"Oh? That's pretty good... um... If you encounter any doubts in this competition, you can choose to discuss with Ning Qing during the meal, maybe you can gain something." Zhou Jingxue seemed to give it casually. It was an opinion, but it fell into Qin Qianqian's ears, almost expressing something.

"Ah? Teacher Zhou, he..."

"Ahem, I'll just talk casually. Mathematical modeling is a matter of brainstorming." Zhou Jingxue smiled and said quite meaningfully.

At this moment, Qin Qianqian suddenly thought of what Ning Qing said that day: "If you have any problems in this competition that you really can't solve, you can come to me. I will try my best to help you." For a moment, she suddenly felt a little lost.Mr. Zhou, what does this mean?
……

"Qin Qianqian, do you think we should use the curve fitting method or the control variable method here?"

"Huh? What?"

"Ahem, Qin Qianqian, why have you been out of your mind since you changed your computer? Our progress is already a bit behind, and I heard that some of their teams have already completed modeling."

"Sorry, let me take another look..."

……

Thursday, the third day of the competition, in the afternoon.

Most of the teams have already started writing papers at this moment, and the atmosphere in the entire competition area, whether it is a dedicated computer room or a discussion room, seems quite tense.At this time, you can often meet unkempt children in the corridor.

The competition has reached the sprint stage. No matter how well the topic is done, the thesis and program will be packaged and submitted before ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

For the group that is just starting to write the paper now, the next time must be raced against time, and may even need to stay up all night.For other groups, most of the students who stayed up late in the first two days were doing model writing programs. From now on, thesis writing has become the most important thing.

From time to time, various questions and answers can be heard from various discussion rooms.

Ning Qing's group is quiet today.The dissertation has been completed, and at this time, I will hand it over to Liu Xiaohan to read it word by word.Not expecting any advice from the music master, Ning Qing simply asked Liu Xiaohan to check for typos.

After checking, copy the prepared large code to the appendix, and finally convert it into a PDF document and submit it directly.

It's easy to say, but Ning Qing also feels that these two days are still a lot of mental exhaustion. This kind of high-intensity competition will really toss people. Thinking of those children who may stay up late tonight, Ning Qing feels more and more. This kind of competition started at the high school stage, which is really inhumane.

Save the child!
