In the early morning local time, the plane finally stopped steadily at Oslo International Airport.

Qin grabbed his and Ning Qingyun's luggage, got off the plane, and took a deep breath. The air in a foreign country was filled with the coolness of the morning, and the temperature was only more than ten degrees. Fortunately, a warning sounded in the plane before getting off the plane.

, Qin Ke asked Ning Qingyun to put on her coat in advance.

After setting foot on a strange land, everyone felt a certain excitement amidst exhaustion, but Qin Ke rubbed his somewhat swollen brain.

On the flight that lasted for most of the day, Qin Ke had nothing to do, so he kept closing his eyes and digesting and absorbing the newly added S-level knowledge in his mind, "Study of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations 'Navier-Stokes Equation'"

and detailed explanation (Part 2)".

Compared with the previous part, the amount of knowledge in this medium part is larger and more profound, and it involves a lot of knowledge in physics, astronomy and even climatology.

Qin Ke's current level of physics is not enough to understand such advanced knowledge, but he can also understand the value of this knowledge. Once he studies it thoroughly, he may not only solve the existence and smoothness of the N-S equation.

It is so simple that it can even lead to many practical theories and scientific and technological inventions.

While he secretly made up his mind, it seemed that he needed to focus on improving the level of physics subjects, he also focused on the mathematical knowledge inside.

But even if he has reached a "professional level" level of mathematics, it is extremely difficult to read the mathematical knowledge in this medium.

He went back and studied the mathematical knowledge in the first chapter in detail again, and then combined his insights to study the mathematical knowledge in the middle chapter... With his talent in science at this time, he studied carefully and focused for nearly ten hours, and actually

His mathematics level has improved a lot, and he has also gained a lot of inspiration for writing papers.

More importantly, the system generously awarded a full 8 academic points!

"Ding! You have worked hard to delve into the advanced mathematical theoretical knowledge in S-level knowledge and have made some small achievements. You will be rewarded with 8 academic points (mathematics)!"

Qin Ke made a rough estimate and found that he had only mastered 30% of the mathematical knowledge in "Part 1" and "Part 2" at most, accounting for less than 10% of the total amount of S-level knowledge in the two parts. In other words, if in the future,

If you can fully understand these two pieces of S-level knowledge, you will probably get close to 100 academic points.

So many academic points are enough to upgrade his mathematics level to "professional level". This shows that the level of these two S-level knowledge is high and the amount of knowledge is huge.

However, a lot of the knowledge in it is related to physics. I am afraid that half of the 100 academic points will be given to physics subjects.

——Of course, Qin Ke still has a long way to go before he can fully understand these two pieces of S-level knowledge.

…

We took the pick-up bus from the airport to the hotel. After settling in, everyone took about half a day to rest and adjust to the jet lag.

After lunch, coach Deng Hongguo summoned the team members who had regained their energy to give them routine reminders.

Coach Wang Cunren and the translator reported to the IMO Organizing Committee in advance. They are responsible for translating the questions of this IMO into Chinese. In order to prevent missing questions, coach Wang and the translator cannot leave the designated place before the end of IMO.

No communication tools can be used.

Deng Hongguo looked around the six team members and said in a hoarse voice: "As we have said repeatedly before, IMO has undergone a certain degree of reform. The questions have increased and the difficulty has been slightly improved compared to previous years. Both DAY1 and DAY2 have

It’s five questions and five hours, each question is worth 7 points, and the total score of the two papers is 70 points.”

"Everyone should pay attention to the fact that the first question of DAY1 and DAY2 must be completed first, because this question is relatively simple and it is a 'threshold question'. If you do not complete it or do it wrong, 7 points will be deducted.

If you don’t do this question, it means you have missed one of the following questions correctly.”

"There is another important point that everyone must pay attention to. This IMO has special rewards for innovative solutions to questions. Even if you can solve the questions accurately, if the solution or proof is mediocre and there are no innovative highlights, you will only get

6.5 points, that is to say, your solution must be eye-catchingly creative, rigorous and error-free in order to get a full 7 points.”

"Thanks to Qinke, everyone's way of thinking about problem solving should have been greatly improved in the past two weeks. In a sense, this reform is beneficial to us! When we solve problems, we try our best to

On the basis of correctness, you can use your "whimsical" thinking and make some innovations in the solution. Even if it is partial innovation, you may be able to get 0.5 points more..."

"A total of 109 countries have signed up for this IMO, which is more than in previous years, and the competition is more intense. There are only 10 gold medals, 20 silver medals, and 30 bronze medals. In other words, only those who rank in the top 60 can win the prize.

Get the medal and bring glory to the country!"

"Our Xia country has not won a bronze medal or above for three consecutive years, but I believe in you and have high hopes for you. Not only me, but the motherland and people behind us also have high hopes for you. I hope

You who participate in this IMO can perform at your best, achieve the best results, and reverse the declining image of our country in the international mathematics community!"

"The goal is to enter the top 50 in the team's total score ranking and try to get everyone a medal. Do you have confidence?"

"have!"

"I can't hear it, the sound is too low!"

"have--!"

"Okay!" Deng Hongguo nodded with satisfaction: "The next step is free time. You can go around, but you must pay attention to safety. You can't go too far. It's best to go together. The common language here is Norwegian.

Although many Norwegians can speak English, don’t expect their English skills to be very good.”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sun Bingfei laughed at himself: "Don't expect our English to be very good! It seems that among us, only Teacher Qin and Ning have the highest English level and can use English to do all kinds of things."

It hinders communication. Well... I can only carry on simple daily conversations."

Liang Shaoping shook his head and said: "I can't do it either. I've always been the worst in liberal arts." After he finished sixth in the national competition, he signed up for Zhejiang University early because he was not good at liberal arts. Through the regular college entrance examination, he would definitely be the best.

Can't get into famous schools like Zhejiang University.

Qin Ke smiled and suggested: "Then do you want to come with us? In the afternoon, we plan to visit the University of Oslo, the venue for the IMO competition."

The four team members were now led by Qin Ke, and his proposal was immediately responded to.

The University of Oslo is also a world-class university, having produced 5 Nobel Prize winners, 2 Turing Award winners, 1 Fields Medal winner and other academic masters.

After everyone visited the classical University of Oslo that afternoon, Wang Changai and four others said they would not go out anymore and would stay in the hotel to adjust. After Qin Ke greeted Deng Hongguo, he continued to take Ning Qingyun to Oslo.

Wander around this ancient city.

Qin Ke noticed that no matter where the two of them went, there was always the logistics woman from the same team following them not far away. He was basically sure of his guess. This was good. He felt relieved and didn't have to worry about safety issues, so he pressed

I made travel plans in advance and took Ning Qingyun around in the next day and a half.

With his current junior high school English level 4 and IELTS 8 points speaking level, he is not afraid of language problems at all. Moreover, Ning Qingyun’s English level is also very good, exceeding level 4 and close to level 6. The two held hands and visited separately.

Vigeland Sculpture Park, Oslo City Hall, Nobel Peace Center, Viking Ship Museum.

Ning Qingyun has a weak constitution. Even though Qin Ke has been thoughtfully arranging her rest time, after playing for a day and a half, she was unable to walk. It was Qin Ke who carried her back to the hotel.

However, this rare journey also left the two of them with many photos and beautiful memories.

After another night's rest, early the next morning, they ushered in the opening ceremony of IMO.

The opening ceremony of this IMO was held in the Academic Atrium of the University of Oslo. Well-known mathematicians from all over the world, as well as more than 700 students and team leaders from 109 countries participating in this event gathered together. The scene was extremely spectacular.

It was the first time to witness such a high-end and high-end mathematics event. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were relatively calm, but Liang Shaoping and others felt a sense of awe, especially when they learned that the big man sitting on the stage

I felt like I was blinded when several of them were great mathematicians who had won the Fields Medal, the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, and the Abel Prize.

The four people who were not very good at English sat in their seats conscientiously and did not dare to run around. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun met a few acquaintances - Charles and Aisen, who had previously visited Yingyuan Private High School for academic exchanges.

,Jessie.

It was a pleasure to meet acquaintances, but as the opening ceremony was about to begin, they didn't chat in detail. They made an appointment to meet again after the game and waved goodbye.

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun returned to their positions, only to see Sun Bingfei, Wei Yuyuan and the other four standing up nervously and uneasily. Deng Hongguo frowned slightly.

But in front of a few people, it was Fernando and Arpad who caused trouble in Xia State at the end of last month, causing the Xia State High School circles to change their minds. They were later defeated by Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.

There are also four American students, who appear to be their teammates. Three are yellow-skinned Asians and one is white.

Fernando glanced at the stiff-faced Sun Bingfei and others, then automatically ignored them, raised his head in front of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, and said in English: "QIN, NING, we meet again." After that, he turned to his companions.

:

"These two are the math geniuses I saw in Xia Kingdom. They completed five difficult DAY2 questions together in less than 25 minutes. Hill, this is your most powerful opponent for the personal championship."

His companions looked at Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun up and down, and finally said: "We have watched the live replay, you are very good, but we will go all out! A reminder, this IMO pays attention to innovative thinking, you

Xia people may not be good at this. Finally, I wish you good luck!"

After saying that, the American team walked away with their heads held high. From the beginning to the end, they did not even look at the four Xia players, including Sun Bingfei and Wang Changai, who were standing next to Qin Ke.

The faces of Sun Bingfei and the others were stiff and depressed, with unconcealable nervousness and faint fear.

Especially Liang Shaoping, his face turned a little pale, obviously recalling the psychological shadow of being severely defeated by Fernando and others.

In the past half month, their level has improved a lot, but their self-confidence has not improved in their hearts. Faced with such an almost insulting disregard, they feel extremely uncomfortable and have a sense of frustration.

Qin Ke suddenly said: "Straighten your back and raise your head!" He was speaking in Chinese. Sun Bingfei and Liang Shaoping subconsciously tensed up their bodies and immediately raised their heads and straightened their backs.

Qin Ke looked around the four people and said in a deep voice: "The American team has always been a strong team in IMO. Four or five members have won gold medals every year. You lost to them before. It's not embarrassing. What's embarrassing is that

, you will not dare to face them if you have failed once!”

"Fernando and Arpad were defeated so miserably by me and Ning Qingyun. Did they see us shrinking? Did they take the initiative to avoid it? Did they lower their heads? Even though they suffered setbacks, they did not lose their pursuit of honor.

, the heart that pursues higher goals!

"Fernando and Arpad can do it, and I believe you can do it too! You are no longer the same person you were half a month ago. Think about the hard work you have put in over the past six months and the progress you have made!

Thinking about the look in their eyes just now, don’t you want to slap them in the face with your best results?”

"Believe in yourself and do your best. No matter what the result is, you have defeated yourself first and you are the victor!"

"Finally, don't forget why you, Ning Qingyun and I are standing here! It's for our mathematical dreams and to bring honor to our motherland! We also shoulder the burdens of those who were not able to come here

The tears and expectations of the Norwegian participants!”

"Wang Changai! Sun Bingfei! Wei Yuyuan! Liang Shaoping! Let me ask you one last question now, do you have the confidence and courage to defeat yourself and the once powerful enemy?"

The four people's whole bodies were shaken up, their eyes had regained their divine light, and they said in unison: "Yes!"

"Very good." Qin Ke smiled again: "They walked too fast just now. Originally, I wanted to tell them that they should not even think about winning this championship, because... that is mine!"

"The runner-up, don't even think about it, because it belongs to Ning Qingyun!"

"For the total team score, Ning Qingyun and I will do our best, and the rest depends on you!"

Looking at Qin Ke, who was confident and flamboyant, with a trusting look in his eyes, Wang Changai and others felt invisible strength in their hearts, and their eyes became firmer. Liang Shaoping, who lacked the most confidence, also clenched his fists and said: "Teacher Qin, please

Leave it to us! We won’t hold the team back!”

Deng Hongguo, who was standing a few steps away, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with relief.

Ning Qingyun looked at Qin Ke with proud eyes, pursed her lips and smiled.
