Chapter 116 The unmotivated teenagers(3/3)
score.
Yu Wei couldn't help it anymore and said, "How is your situation different from ours?"
Qiao Yu lay there, staring at the ceiling with the faint light that broke into the room through the window, and asked in an indifferent tone: "You all have a father, right?"
"Isn't this nonsense? Who doesn't have an old man at home?" Gong Jiatao quickly answered, and then immediately realized that something was wrong.
As expected, Qiao Yu said in a calm tone: "Yes, you all have it, but I don't. Look, so we are indeed different."
"No, brother, what's wrong with your dad? Is this still possible?" Yu Yongjun asked.
Qiao Yu calmly narrated: "I died before I was born. My mother suffered from some things that you can understand as a stage of severe social fear, so she was not suitable to go out to work. After my grandfather passed away in the fifth grade, I decided to start raising a family.
If I don't work hard, my mother will have to live a hard life with me, and even eating will be a problem. You have never faced this kind of survival pressure, you just need to study well, but I am different, I not only have to study well, but also Be good enough.
This is where we are different. I haven’t experienced the pressure of survival, so of course I can’t develop my abilities. When I was in elementary school, I did game training, and I always made money while playing games. I also did homework and dealt with the teacher. How can you compare with me?
Don’t believe it, there is a sample essay I wrote on the official account of my alma mater Xingtie No. 1 Middle School. It is a short story about me going to visit my father’s grave during the Qingming Festival. The teacher commented that it was sincere and sincere... …
Qiao Yu used some writing skills here. He didn't tell the three friends about the essay, and the teacher directly deleted his essay as the last O. Henry-style ending. But the dormitory was still quiet.
In fact, everyone knows that to reach Qiao Yu's level, it is definitely not enough to work hard, but when it comes to this, they really don't know how to answer. Because they have never faced the pressure of survival.
At least no one has to be responsible for supporting the family while studying. Even in order to ensure their study, the family does its best to provide them with the best resources. As for Yu Wei, he wants more.
His mind flashed back to what Qiao Yu said when he was invited to participate in the Little Li Baba preliminaries in August, and when they took a short walk together the night after the exam, he understood this guy's words: "Sacrifice his father's life every night." What does "His mathematical talent is amazing" mean?
By the way, that night he also said that he wanted to play Go and gamble with him for money. He felt very complicated.
If he had known this earlier, he would have agreed at that time.
It's not that his sympathy is overflowing. In fact, Yu Wei is not the kind of person who is very emotional and can think from other people's perspective. He simply thinks that if he had lost a sum of money to Qiao Yu, this guy probably wouldn't work so hard. You don't need to take so many blows.
"I'm sorry." After a while, Gong Jiatao apologized softly.
The sound is not loud, but it is quite clear in the room.
"What's there to apologize for? It's better not to have a father. No one cared about me when I was a child, so I had a very happy childhood. Those things in your mind about being bullied and laughed at when you were young never happened.
Even if I want to bully others, I bully others! Every one of those little brats in my old neighborhood has been beaten by me. Not only were they beaten by me outside, they also had to be beaten when they came home. Just because I have been accustomed to fighting since I was a child.
Others work harder.
My grandpa said that there are too many fathers in the world. Most people will choose to blame others and regard this as an excuse for failure; only a few people will regard this as an incentive for themselves and work harder to strive for every success.
.
This is actually the reason why there are far more mediocre people in this world than outstanding people. Because it is too easy to blame others, but it is too difficult to work hard. Just like this time, you lost a game to me, and each one of you lost.
As if he was already planning to lie down, he failed in the exams these two days.
Look, this belongs to the former thinking mode. It's just that I didn't win the game, and then I blamed it on my self-confidence. Then I can accept the fact that my test scores have dropped. So don't apologize to me, apologize to yourselves.
.”
Qiao Yu said in one breath.
Forget about the people in other dormitories, he still recognizes the strength of Yu Wei and Gong Jiatao. If these two guys' self-confidence is too severely hit and they don't make it to the top sixteen, it would be a real pity.
As Professor Zhou said just now, IMO what matters more is always the team's performance.
After these words, there was another long period of silence.
After a long while, Yu Weicai said: "I don't know what they are like. I never make excuses for failure, and the goal I mentioned that day has not changed. I will definitely catch up with your achievements sooner or later."
Qiao Yu heard that Yu Wei's words were very guilty. In the past, this guy's tone would have been more firm, with an undoubted tone, but this time it was obviously not there. It was soft and completely without strength.
But he just smiled and didn't expose it.
"No, Yu Wei, what are you talking about? Let me tell you, I will definitely get perfect marks in the next two exams!" Gong Jiatao muttered dissatisfied. Well, it can actually be seen that Gong Jiatao doesn't like Yu Wei very much either.
But this is normal.
With Yu Wei's character, he won't be liked anywhere, but this guy probably won't care too much. Everyone has their own way of living, not to mention that Yu Wei also has the qualifications to be arrogant.
People who often reincarnate know that accurate reincarnation has been a skill from ancient times to the present, at home and abroad, and it is a skill that most people cannot learn in a lifetime.
"Yes, yes, the four of us in the dormitory must go to Australia together neatly. I have never been abroad in my life. If I can be in the top six this time, I can fulfill my dream of going abroad. I went to search for it before
Watching the video, there are so many beautiful Australian beauties, they are so eye-catching!"
Gong Jiatao immediately echoed: "Well, this year's IMO resort city Sunshine Coast is held. I searched online and found that there are a lot of beach thieves there. It's summer in July. I don't know if we will be allowed to go to the beach in the summer.
There are free bikinis to look at at the beach, hehe."
Apparently classmate Yu Yongjun successfully moved the next topic in a somewhat strange direction. What a greasy young man...
However, this made Qiao Yu feel very happy. They had already started discussing bikinis, so it was probably no problem. So after a few casual comments, Qiao Yu shut his mouth. After all, he was really knowledgeable in this area.
Barren.
It has to be said that although the two of them were almost indifferent in other aspects, they knew so much about all sorts of things that even Qiao Yu was amazed.
For example, how to use the palm of your hand to quickly and accurately measure which gear is A, B, C, or D? This is something Qiao Yu has never been exposed to, and he has never even thought about it.
He didn't know whether what the two people said was right, but hearing that they each had sufficient arguments and became more and more energetic as they talked, Qiao Yu felt that what they said probably made a little bit of sense.
Originally, Qiao Yu was ready to study quietly until early in the morning, but unfortunately Yu Wei suddenly joined in and said, "Go to sleep."
"No, Yu Wei, don't spoil the fun."
"Disappointing? You two have probably never held a girl's hand, right?
"Without being so humiliating, who hasn't held a girl's hand? I did it every day when I was in kindergarten! "I did it every day when I was in elementary school!"
"Heh.. As expected, the poor students have too much stationery."
"No, are you talking about how awesome you are?"
"That's right, are you jealous of our rich theoretical knowledge?" "You are all still virgins, right?"
"Tch, so what? Aren't you?" "Yes, I'm not."
Yu Wei's calm voice was actually not loud, and only contained a few short words, but at this moment it was as deafening as a bell, echoing endlessly. It silenced the two guys who were having a happy discussion.
Even Qiao Yu couldn't help but turn sideways and glance in the direction hidden in the darkness. The rich second generation is so shameful!
After a long time, a weak voice came out: "Well, what does it feel like?"
"The feeling is: happiness is short-lived, and troubles are long-lasting." Yu Wei said in a very calm tone.
Qiao Yu turned over, closed his eyes and planned to go to sleep. He was really tired these past few days. The most important thing is that he didn't want to listen to the rich second generation pretending to be cool. Because this answer felt very real to him. He had never experienced it and it was impossible.
Such a real emotion.
There was nothing much to talk about in the next few days. Everyone returned to the normal rhythm. During the three-day window without exams, Professor Zhou and teachers from various schools provided psychological counseling to these children.
This is also a rare experience for Zhou Liang - it has never been so troublesome before. Generally speaking, children who have reached the training stage are very worry-free to take care of.
Because most of them have very clear goals and know the direction of their efforts.
But there is no way, if you live long enough in life, you will always witness some weird things.
Fortunately, everyone recovered well. In the next two days of exams three days later, the results were in line with previous expectations. At least a few children who had been focused on before did not stretch their hips to the extent that they could not reach the top fifteen.
At least at the closing ceremony, a result was announced that everyone could accept. The good news is that Yu Yongjun once again stumbled into the top sixteen and entered the second stage of special training.
In fact, at this stage, except for no more than a quarter of the players, everyone else has a clear understanding of their own level. Whether they can enter the top 16 or not, they already have the answer in their hearts. Some people even have the original goal of national competition. Sixty before the game.
So I won't be too upset if I am eliminated at this stage. As for Qiao Yu's performance, he is as stable as ever.
No one emphasizes how great he is that he got full marks in all four exams, because this is already a matter of course. On the contrary, if Qiao Yu fails to get full marks, everyone may wonder if there is an error in the question.
Yes, after showing off his ability to answer questions while playing games and guaranteeing 100% accuracy, everyone no longer regarded him as a human being - he was just a beast! Qiao Yu also happened to have only two people on his last day before leaving. When he was in person, he asked the question that he had been holding in his heart for several days.
"Well, Yu Wei, you are really not that one anymore?" "Which one?"
"Nonsense, what you said that night, don't act stupid!" Qiao Yu looked at Yu Wei coldly and said. "Oh, I lied to them that night." Yu Wei said lightly.
Qiao Yu was a little surprised and confirmed: "You lied to them?"
"Well, the two of them are too noisy. If I don't lie to them, it will be very annoying to talk about this boring topic all night." Yu Wei explained. Qiao Yu licked his lips, feeling that what Yu Wei said seemed to be so. It makes sense, but he still said with disdain: "You are dishonest." Yu Wei glanced at Qiao Yu and said: "It doesn't matter if I am honest or not, the key is the effect, as long as they believe it is enough."
Qiao Yu sneered: "How do you know they will believe it?"
Yu Wei said naturally: "Because people are accustomed to superstitious authority. Yu Yongjun told Gong Jiatao that I am a rich second generation. They don't know what the real life of a rich second generation is like, so they will believe whatever I say."
You are also an authority now, and if you say something, they will believe it. The key is to be calm and calm when telling lies, without any hesitation or letting people see any flaws."
These words made sense. Qiao Yu was fascinated when he heard them, and then asked: "So what is the life of the second generation of rich people like? Tell me when you have time." Yu Wei turned his head and looked at Qiao Yu with inquiring eyes. Yu, no sound.
Qiao Yu immediately explained: "I want to know in advance for my future son. You know, I am so strong, I will definitely be a rich generation in the future, and my son will naturally be a rich second generation. I think it is also important to raise a son like you in the future. good."
"Goodbye!" Yu Wei was silent at first, then said these two words briefly and concisely, then carried his luggage and walked towards the stairs next to him without looking back. "See you in Star City next weekend." Qiao Yu said to Yu Wei The figure from behind said goodbye in more precise words.
It is true that we will meet next week, because the second phase of IMO training is about to begin again. The best of the fifteen people will be selected. In the end, only six people will be qualified to represent China in Australia. The enjoyment makes the two greasy teenagers yearn for it. Sunny Beach...
Qiao Yu was in an inexplicably good mood at this time.
Chapter completed!
