Shocking the World: Starting from Rural Teachers

"Then the two of us are here to run with you?"

Xue Qiang asked with a smile.

"more or less."

Dou Xudong said with a smile: "I won't come next year, and I will come with another young teacher. I can play almost all the places in the capital that should be played."

"From Mr. Dou's point of view, among the eight teams this year, which team is more likely?" Xue Qiang asked again.

"That's hard to say."

Dou Xudong thought for a while and said: "I heard that Dongshan Province has a math prodigy this year, and he represented Dongshan Province in the competition in the second year of junior high school."

Suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, Hua Jinxiong, the grandson of the famous Chinese mathematician Hua Lugeng, is representing the No. [-] Middle School in the competition this year."

"In my opinion, this year is basically between Dongshan Province and Beijing No. [-] Middle School."

Dou Xudong made a prediction.

"That's it."

Xue Qiang nodded.

"Hey hey haha, puff puff puff."

At this time, the host took the microphone to the stage and tried the sound test first.

The instructors from various provinces in the audience also stopped chatting and looked at the stage together.

"Hello, teachers, welcome to this year's Mathematical Olympiad Instructor Exchange Symposium."

The host said: "Today, we also invited several heavyweight guests to come on stage to communicate with teachers."

"The first place is Xin Youhe, the instructor of the Olympic Mathematics Team of Beijing No. [-] Middle School."

"Teacher Xin Youhe graduated from No. [-] Middle School in Beijing. He represented the country twice in the Mathematical Olympiad and won two medals, one gold and one silver."

"I studied at the School of Mathematics of Qingbei University for my undergraduate degree, my master's degree at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Pennsylvania, and my Ph.D. at the School of Mathematics of Harvard University."

"Then stayed on to teach at Harvard University and became an assistant professor in the second year."

"I returned to China last year and joined Beijing No. [-] Middle School as the director of mathematics teaching and research."

The host said: "Next, I invite Teacher Xin to come on stage!"

A man in his thirties, wearing a three-piece suit and greasy hair, came to the stage. He didn't even say hello to everyone. He went straight to the sofa and sat down, arrogantly crossing his legs.

When he looked at the instructors in the audience, he was full of disdain.

It's as if a human being is looking down at a group of ants.

"Why is this guy so awesome?"

Xue Qiang couldn't help muttering.

"They are really awesome."

Dou Xudong said with admiration: "With this resume, I can go to Xiachuan University to be a professor."

"Ah."

Xue Qiang smiled lightly.

"The following is the general judge of this selection competition, Associate Professor of the School of Mathematics of Qingbei University, Professor Mi Liangmi." The host announced.

An old man with gray temples and a kind face slowly walked onto the stage, first bowed slightly to the teachers in the audience, and then sat down.

The teachers in the audience also applauded spontaneously for the old professor.

"In comparison, this Professor Mi is very respectable." Xue Qiang said.

"Professor Mi is a master in the field of structural mathematics." Dou Xudong said.

"Next, I will invite the instructor of the Mathematical Olympiad team of Qingbei High School, Jin Jin!"

The host on the stage announced again.

A young female teacher came onto the stage, wearing a long white bamboo dress, with long hair hanging down her shoulders like a waterfall.

With a delicate face and an elegant and tranquil temperament, there is not only an intellectual beauty, but also a bit of artistic flavor.

Jin Jin put his palms together and bowed slightly, and when he passed by Mi Liang, he bowed slightly to Mi Liang again, and then sat down.

"This teacher Jin is a bit pretty." Xue Qiang said.

"Teacher Jin was also a Mathematics Olympiad athlete. He won the silver medal and was sent to Beijing Normal University. After graduation, he went to Qingbei High School to teach."

Dou Xudong is worthy of participating in the competition for four consecutive years. He knows everything.

"Next, I will ask the director of the Mathematical Olympiad Center of the Management Committee, Chang Jiefang." The host said.

A middle-aged man with a big belly came onto the stage and stroked his Mediterranean hair to cover the bald spot in the middle.

He waved to the teachers in the audience, walked to the sofa and sat down.

There are five sofas on the stage, and four people are seated, and the remaining seat is for the host.

"The famous first appearance of the most burnt buns, and the official finale appearance."

Xue Qiang smiled and said, "The sequence of appearances is a matter of knowledge."

After several people on the stage sat down, they began to chat. The main process was that the host asked questions and asked the four guests to answer.

"Director Chang, as far as I know, this year's Math Olympiad seems to be a little different from previous years' Math Olympiad!" said the host.

"Yes, the host of this year's Math Olympiad is the capital of the Gobyaron Empire, Goboda City."

Chang Jiefang picked up the microphone and said, "Everyone knows that Gobyaron is a country that is backward, poor and war-torn all the year round."

"In order to get the right to host the Mathematics Olympiad, Gobyaron promised that the country that wins the gold medal in the Mathematical Olympiad will get the construction project of the Gobyaron Highway."

"This project involves more than [-]% of the road construction in the entire Gabyaron Empire, with a total investment of over one trillion dollars."

"So the Olympic gold medal is very important to our country. As long as we can get the gold medal, our country can enter the Gabyaron Empire."

"And the benefits that this can bring to the country, I won't go into details."

Chang Jiefang smiled, enough is enough, I believe the teachers here can understand.

"That said, we Huaxia are determined to win the gold medal in this Mathematical Olympiad!"

The host took over the conversation and said, "So, we must select the strongest team to compete."

"Let me say a few words."

At this moment, Xin Youhe picked up the microphone and interjected, "I would like to thank the country for its trust in entrusting this important task to me, to our No. [-] Middle School in Beijing."

"Mr. Xin, what do you mean?" the host asked knowingly.

The meaning of these words could not be more obvious, Xin Youhe is determined to win this national selection competition.

"Young man, don't be too crazy." Mi Liang said lightly at this moment.

"If you're not crazy, are you still a young man?"

Xin Youhe sneered, and said, "This time our No. [-] middle school contestant is Hua Jinxiong. I believe many people know who Hua Jinxiong is, right?"

"Of course I know, he is the grandson of Master Hua Lugeng, the master of mathematics." The host said.

"Hua Jinxiong can be said to have perfectly inherited the genes of Master Hua Lugeng, and he can be called the most gifted mathematics genius in the past 30 years."

Xin Youhe said: "As Hua Jinxiong's instructor, I know how talented this kid is. Let's put it this way, when I was his age, my level was far inferior to his."

"Wow, you are indeed the grandson of Master Hua Lu Geng." The host said with an exaggerated expression.

"The emergence of Hua Jinxiong is no longer just a simple matter of winning a gold medal for our country in the Olympiad."

Xin Youhe's expression became more and more arrogant, and he said: "Hua Jinxiong will use his own efforts in the future to greatly improve the academic field of mathematics in our country."

"Pfft! Hahaha!"

A person under the stage couldn't help laughing suddenly, leaning back and covering his stomach.

"Ok?"

Xin Youhe's expression turned cold instantly, and he stared at the laughing man.

"Teacher, what's so ridiculous about what I said?" Xin Youhe asked coldly.

"I've heard of bragging, but I haven't heard of bragging to this extent. It can't be called bragging. It's just bragging!"

As soon as that person's words came out, the instructors from other provinces in the audience couldn't help laughing too.

"you!"

Xin Youhe stood up angrily, pointed at the man and asked, "Which provincial math team are you from?"

"Nanjiang Province, Xue Qiang!"
