Chapter 3 How to earn academic and technological points Lin Yan was anxious. How could this child give up his future for money? "We don't want money! We want the qualification to participate!" "If the school disagrees, I will go to the principal and the director of the Education Bureau! Why should my son be rejected just because his scores are the same?" Director Liao was also a little worried when he saw this. The school organizes a math competition, which is indeed in line with the requirements of the Education Bureau, but only a few students have good math scores and talent to participate in the competition. Many high schools, including Jiangzhou No. 1 High School, use the guise of competitions to encourage parents to actively sign up and pay for their children to attend Olympiad tutoring classes organized by the school. The Mathematical Olympiad has been raised to an unprecedented level. It seems that if you don’t participate in the Mathematical Olympiad, you are not a qualified high school student. The school's tutoring classes and fees do indeed walk in a gray area, but they also increase a lot of income for the school and teachers. Inspection is prohibited.
Director Liao decided to send Lin Yan away quickly and put an end to this matter. "The city and province's bonuses are still being signed by the school leaders, and they are expected to be in place by tomorrow. It's not a good idea for you to keep making a fuss like this, Mother Lu Shan." Lu Shan didn't waste any time, took the money from Director Liao, and took Lin Yan out of the classroom office. At this point, Director Liao breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Wang Yongxiang: "Old Wang, there are really no solutions for some things. You should do more work on Lu Shan. I will also tell Teacher Zhang (the English teacher of Class 3) to give this child some special lessons to improve his English. The college entrance examination is still very important." Wang Yongxiang had no choice but to agree silently. Lu Shan and Su Ming are both ranked fifth in the league. Compared to Lu Shan's imbalanced performance in certain subjects, Su Ming is well-balanced in all subjects. To be fair, Su Ming achieved excellent results because he received elite education since childhood, while Lu Shan is talented. The value of their achievements is completely different. But there was no way, Su Ming's father was a famous entrepreneur in Jiangzhou City and provided scholarships to the school every year. Lu Shan's parents both work odd jobs, so it is obvious what school to choose. Besides, Su Ming's goal is to study abroad and attend an Ivy League university. The qualification for the CMO Winter Camp is crucial to him. Prestigious overseas universities value this more than college entrance examination scores. The elite wealthy class will try every means to make the next generation better and solidify the class, rather than being prodigals. "Oh!" Wang Yongxiang also let out a long sigh. He had no choice but to come down and tell English teacher Zhang to give Lu Shan more free tutoring, as the child's family situation was indeed very specific. …… Lu Shan sent Lin Yan to the school gate. Lin Yan tried hard not to cry in front of the child, but self-blame and guilt could be seen in her eyes. I feel guilty for not creating better learning conditions for my child and I feel guilty for holding my child back. Lu Shan took out a thousand yuan from the envelope and handed it to Lin Yan, "Mom, the first test is coming up soon. I've been straining my brain lately. Please buy some more meat. I want to eat braised pork." "Go back quickly. Don't worry. I have a way to attend the winter camp. Don't worry." Lu Shan didn't want to eat meat. It was because he saw that his mother was so skinny and he didn't know how long she had been frugal. He asked Lin Yan to buy more meat. If he couldn't finish it, she wouldn't want to waste it and would always eat some.
"Okay! Mom will make you some braised pork. Don't worry about your English tutoring. Find a good teacher. We have money at home!" "Go back to class, it's time for class." Looking at Lin Yan's hunched figure, Lu Shan felt uncomfortable and his nose felt sore. After returning to the classroom, the classmates looked at Lu Shan with strange eyes. The students in the class may have known the news that Lu Shan was disqualified from participating in the CMO Winter Camp. No one knew what to say in front of Lu Shan and Su Ming, but everyone understood. Lu Shan sat in his seat, thinking about the future plans. In his previous life, he loved mathematics. When he read out his dreams at the coming-of-age ceremony in the first semester of his senior year, Lu Shan said that his biggest dream was to try to prove the Riemann hypothesis. As a result, he was laughed at by his classmates and thought it was unrealistic. Now with the help of Singularity Labs, why not give it a try? We are all reborn. Making money to improve family life is one thing, but if we only look at money, wouldn’t it be a waste of rebirth? At the same time, Lu Shan also has a deep understanding of his own abilities. He has a talent for science, but there is still a big gap compared to the top talents. With my current strength, even if I enter the winter camp for the Mathematical Olympiad and compete with the math geniuses across the country, it might be difficult for me to win a medal. The most you can get is a place in the independent enrollment examination for basic disciplines of a key university (the predecessor of the Strong Foundation Plan). When colleges and universities recruit students independently, they will still have to take the English test, which is useless. Therefore, the short-term plan is to find a way to obtain academic and technological points as soon as possible, enter the Singularity Laboratory to study under Poincare, strive to get a place in the winter camp of the training class, and then get the CMO gold medal, so as to save the country and enter a top university. From the instructions for use of the Singularity Laboratory, we learned that by learning from the scientists in the laboratory, Lu Shan could not only acquire the scientists' abilities but also their talents. If you could get a little bit of Poincare's talent, wouldn't it be easy to win a gold medal in the Mathematical Olympiad? A single entry into the Singularity Lab requires 2 points. How can I get 2 points? Just when Lu Shan was thinking about this problem, Shen Qian came to ask Lu Shan for help with the wrong math questions from the monthly exam. This is an arithmetic sequence problem. After Lu Shan finished reading the article, he was able to solve it by simply recalling the knowledge. After my rebirth, I inherited some things from this age group, so I haven't forgotten a lot of knowledge. Shen Qian is the top student in the class. Except for mathematics, she is relatively balanced in other subjects, and her scores in English and Chinese are particularly good. Her English score is above 140 in every exam. However, her math score is a little worse, only around 120. She still wants to make an effort in mathematics and get into Peking University or Tsinghua University. Lu Shan explained to Shen Qian very seriously, trying to use the simplest language so that she could understand. Shen Qian: "I understand! So this is how it is done. Thank you! Lu Shan!" [Points +] [Unlock academic and technological points. Note: If you repeat tasks of the same academic difficulty, the points you gain will gradually decrease.] Lectures can be considered as popularizing knowledge and can earn academic and technological points, but they are pitifully few. Before he has the opportunity to publish papers or develop technological products, Lu Shan can only use this method to obtain the corresponding points as quickly as possible so that he can enter the Singularity Laboratory. After Shen Qian understood how to solve this problem, she also showed concern for Lu Shan and said: "It's useless to just memorize English words. You still need to understand the context and do more reading. Memorize the words and sentences you don't know after reading. I can tutor you after evening self-study and on weekends." Lu Shan just laughed and didn't agree. His time was very precious now.
This class is the last class in the afternoon and is also a self-study class. Lu Shan stood up and looked for his target in the classroom. Look for people who look at math or science problems for a long time but still don't know how to solve them. found it! The fat man Zhang Yong in front was holding a math test paper with 60 points in his hand. His face was red and his forehead was covered with sweat. He asked Su Ming at the table in front of him carefully. "Su Ming, please take a look at how to solve this math problem. I have been calculating for a long time, but the answer is always B." Su Ming was working on the final questions from the CMO Winter Camp a few years ago. Without even looking up, he said, "Ask the teacher." These four words made Zhang Yong feel deflated and at a loss. He was very timid and didn't dare to ask the teacher, fearing that the teacher would think he couldn't even answer such a simple question. It's the third year of high school and everyone is very busy, busy reviewing and doing exercises. Answering questions for others is a waste of your time and few students are willing to do this. Lu Shan smiled and walked over quickly, "I'll tell you." (End of this chapter)
