Top Student

Xu You thought about it, and felt that Lu Zhiyao was really not pretending to be modest.

Before Lu Zhiyao said that she was just an ordinary student, Xu You still thought she was in Versailles.

But after Xu You continued to improve.

He also really understood what Lu Zhiyao called ordinary.

Although Lu Zhiyao has always occupied the first place in the fourth high school list.

But the results of individual subjects are relatively ordinary.

Every subject is not bad, and there is no particularly outstanding subject.

Especially in mathematics, even 140 points are rarely passed.

If it hadn't been for the progress made under Xu You's guidance, I am afraid that he might not have been admitted to Ji University.

[Xu You: All right, but I really didn't expect you to choose a philosophy major. This thing sounds very ethereal]

【Lu Zhiyao: That's because you don't understand. Do you know what is the foundation of all disciplines? 】

【Xu You: I know, let’s do math】

【Lu Zhiyao: Mathematics, philosophy is the foundation of all subjects】

[Xu You: Philosophy? Is it possible to engage in scientific research after studying philosophy? 】

[Lu Zhiyao: This cannot be linked directly. But without philosophy, human civilization would never reach its current level]

Xu You thought about it carefully, and felt that it really made some sense.

Philosophers like Confucius, Laozi, Plato, Aristotle, etc. in the East.

It has indeed made a contribution that cannot be ignored for the progress of human society.

Without those great philosophers and thinkers, human civilization must also be soulless.

Even the old president of Ji University, Mr. He Qing, also taught in the Department of Philosophy of Ji University.

[Xu You: It seems that my cognition is indeed limited. I will take time to discuss philosophy with you in the future]

【Lu Zhiyao: Hey, actually the main reason is that I hate science. Well, no matter what, I can finally welcome college life, and it’s a good thing that Ji University invited me to dinner, don’t be a pigeon]

[Xu You: No problem, I will come back after participating in the IPhO]

【Lu Zhiyao: Come on, wait for your good news】

At the end of July, the Huaxia Mojing delegation took a plane from Jijing to Baisu, the venue of this year's IPhO.

This was also the first time Xu You went to such a distant place.

After getting off the plane, the host staff arranged for everyone to go to the hotel to rest.

Huaxia's time is five hours earlier than Baisu's, the difference is not too much, everyone can basically adapt quickly, and there is no need for jet lag.

What makes the players a little uncomfortable is that.

This time, the team leader and coaching staff could not live in the same hotel as the players, but lived in different hotels a few kilometers apart.

This is because, before the competition, the team leaders of each country will see the topic in advance, discuss and translate the topic.

Therefore, the leaders and players of each country cannot contact each other after this.

But the host will provide a translator for the team members from various countries to help everyone communicate about various things.

Xu You was not affected by this.

Over the years, Xu You has long been used to being independent.

But other teammates don't necessarily have Xu You's strong independence.

At this time, Xu You knew that he had to take on more responsibilities.

"Everyone, relax. Our interpreter is Huaxia's foreign student in Baisu. You can find him for anything. We won't leave the hotel these days. We'll go to bed early at night and stay in good shape. Lin Shi, yes If you need anything, just call me and whitelist your number."

Because Lin Shi is one of the few girls among the participating team members, she can only live in a room by herself.

After all, she is far away in a foreign country, and there is no team leader or coach around her. A girl lives by herself. If something unexpected happens at night, she will inevitably be at a loss.

Therefore, Xu You had to make Lin Shi feel safe enough.

"I see, the security here is pretty good, so it should still be very safe."

Lin Shi is not the kind of girl who is pampered to grow up, and her self-reliance is even stronger than many boys.

But Xu You's words really made Lin Shi feel very warm in his heart.

"This time, the five of us fought to win all the top five. The strength of our Huaxia Wujing team is absolutely unique, and the others are Su, South Korea, and the United States, which are a little bit more competitive." Luo Wenkun said. .

"Don't think about these things during the competition. We can just do our own test well. Before the end of the experimental test, don't check the questions. Just do everything as usual during training."

This time, without Hu Shucheng's madness in correcting the questions, Xu You promised that he would not go to correct the questions after the exam.

"Okay, okay, I see."

After the opening ceremony, the leaders of each country participated in the official meeting of the International Committee.

After passing all the test questions, Huaxia's team leader started the translation work non-stop.

In order to ensure that the translation can be completed in time, they have to work all night.

After completing the translation overnight, the Huaxia team leader applied to the organizing committee to allow the students to obtain an additional English test paper.

"You all have Chinese test papers, why do you need English test papers?"

Huaxia's team leader did not expect that this time, the organizing committee would reject the request.

In fact, asking for an extra English test paper may not be of any help to the team members.

But in order to try to ensure that the team members are not affected by translation problems.

The team leader still racked his brains and tried his best to win this matter from the organizing committee.

"Some of our team members grew up abroad and are used to reading English questions. It's just that we need an extra version of the test paper, and it won't have any impact. We have bilingual test papers in both Chinese and English every session. Why not this year?"

After Huaxia's team leader fought hard, the organizing committee finally agreed to this request.

Next, the theoretical and experimental exams started one after another.

After going to the examination room and seeing the questions.

The five Huaxia team members all have a feeling of lifting weights like light.

Under the usual high-intensity training, they have already seen various complex question types.

When I actually got to the arena, I felt that the questions were simpler than usual.

After the exam, everyone followed the previous agreement and did not talk about the topic of the exam.

But through the state of each other, they can also see that everyone's answers should be good.

After finishing the experimental exam, the team members can finally let go of their nervousness and talk freely about the exam.

"Haha, the theoretical questions are indeed easier than usual, and IPhO is nothing more than that."

"When I was doing the experiment, the foreigner kept staring at me, which made me almost lose my grip on the experimental equipment. Fortunately, I got used to it and my hands stopped shaking."

"Hurry up and score, I really want to touch the gold medal of IPhO."

And after the exam, contestants from various countries were also giving each other small gifts.

Although everyone represents different countries in the competition.

But the team members from various countries are actually very friendly.

Xu You and others also took out the prepared small gifts and exchanged them with players from other countries.

These gifts are not expensive, mostly coins from various countries, or some other small objects.

But they are all memorable.

Finally, on the seventh day, the final results and awards came out.
