"Come, let's talk in another place." Yu Hai greeted the two of them into his own separate office. It was really a mess and there was no way to get started.
Li Siyuan watched the three people leave with a dazed expression. If he guessed correctly, the team leader probably wanted to keep the girl named Su Qingyun.
Thinking that there would be someone who could answer questions for him in the future, Li Siyuan, who rarely showed other expressions, rarely smiled. It was great!
"Come, let's sit down and talk." Yu Hai smiled broadly.
"Okay." Su Qingyun sat down calmly, and Chen Zheyu sat next to her.
"That's right, Student Su." Yu Hai pondered for a moment and then said, "I have read the test paper you answered last time. It was very perfect. It can be said that it meets the selection criteria of our mathematics talent group. But in the letter, you You rejected our invitation, so I still want to ask, what are your concerns?"
"If you feel that you are still studying and have not graduated from high school, this matter is easy to handle. We can directly transfer you to a school in Beijing, or even let you graduate early. These are all no problem. You just need to study and delve into mathematics with peace of mind.”
"As for our salary and benefits here, you don't have to worry. In addition to the monthly salary subsidy, we allocate dormitories and provide food and accommodation. It can be said that you don't have to worry about your food, clothing, housing and transportation. We can provide it to you. solve."
"We even said that considering your young age and your parents' worries, we can also arrange for your parents to come together and arrange jobs for them."
"Maybe if you have any other concerns, you can tell them and we will find a way to reject them."
Yu Hai talked a lot, covering almost every aspect, down to the smallest detail. He couldn't think of any reason for her to refuse.
But Su Qingyun still shook his head and refused without even thinking about it.
"You have considered it very carefully. Thank you very much for your kindness, but I still have no plans to come to the capital for development." She could see Yu Hai's sincerity. This mathematics talent group did promote talents in an eclectic way, but She also has her own considerations.
"Why?" Yu Hai frowned, he didn't understand.
"Maybe it's because I prefer a step-by-step life." Su Qingyun smiled, "I like to take my time. From Luoshui County to here, this step is too big."
Yu Hai also laughed, "People who follow the rules will not have your kind of mathematical thinking." People who are good at mathematics are top-notch in terms of logical thinking and other aspects. People who stick to the rules and don't know how to adapt are not necessarily bad at mathematics, but they are definitely no better. Where to go.
Su Qingyun was silent for a moment and said, "I'm really sorry, Team Leader Yu, I really have no such plan now."
"Not now, but what about in the future?" Yu Hai asked her, grabbing the key point, "Will you consider it in the future?"
"Yes." This time, Su Qingyun answered firmly. She had always been sure that she would return to the capital in the future. After all, she wanted to do the most professional and top-level experiments. Only the capital had the best conditions, but not now, now It's too early to say that.
"Okay then." Yu Hai sighed and stopped stalking.
"But..." Yu Hai suddenly changed the topic and talked about other things, "Student Su, can you agree to something else?"
"What?" Su Qingyun wondered, is there anything else?
Yu Hai: "This August, there will be an international mathematics competition in country E. I hope you can participate with the comrades of our mathematics talent group."
"International Mathematics Competition?" Su Qingyun was stunned.
She only knew that China only began to participate in the International Mathematical Olympiad in 1985. What kind of competition is this now?
"Yes." Yu Hai nodded and introduced her in detail, "This competition is led by multiple countries. This competition has age requirements for contestants. They are required to be no more than thirty years old. Each country can send up to five Contestants, this competition has been held for several times, we have participated twice, but the results were...unsatisfactory."
Su Qingyun nodded while listening. This competition is somewhat similar to the format of the International Mathematical Olympiad Competition.
Yu Hai smiled bitterly, "Not only this competition, our country has not made any great achievements in mathematics in recent years. The older generation of mathematicians are unable to succeed, and the young mathematical talents have not caught up. We are in a period of lag time. The status of Chinese mathematics in the international mathematics community has continued to decline."
"Even in the international mathematics community, China's mathematics has always been belittled, saying that China does not have outstanding mathematical talents. Some people even threatened to say, 'China has no mathematics'!"
"Faced with such insulting words, we have nothing to say to refute them. But as early as about two thousand years ago, our country had a comprehensive mathematical masterpiece like "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", which was the most advanced work in the world at that time. applied mathematics, and now we can’t even say a word to argue for our country’s mathematics, how ridiculous is this?”
Yu Hai's voice was full of sighs and heartache, and the expressions of Su Qingyun and Chen Zheyu also became heavy.
Although it feels shameful, this is indeed the current situation of Chinese mathematics, and even the current situation of many fields in China, and it is also the current situation that China must change!
"The foreign mathematics community is discussing whether we will participate in this year's mathematics competition. Many people think that we are afraid of losing and do not dare to go. But on the contrary, the more this happens, the more we will go. The so-called knowing one's shame and then being brave, Those who are late come first, what our country is best at is turning the situation around in adversity, isn’t it?”
Turning the situation around in adversity, Su Qingyun thought of the war-torn years decades ago. Yes, back then, their country was attacked by foreign powers, with invisible boulders pressing on everyone, but China was still able to survive from the bloody storm. Standing up and still standing today proves this point. The Chinese people become more courageous with every setback and never give up.
"This is the reason why our mathematics talent team was established. Now all the team members are helping researchers in other fields conduct experiments, do experimental data analysis and calculations, and at the same time they are preparing for this competition and practicing questions non-stop. This year , we want to avenge our shame, Su Qingyun, I implore you to join us."
Yu Haiduan called Su Qingyun's name righteously, his expression was unprecedentedly serious and serious, and he also had deep expectations.
Meeting Yu Hai's burning eyes, Su Qingyun finally nodded and said in a serious tone, "If you really need me, of course I will do it without any hesitation."
She can say no to the math talent team, but she can't refuse this kind of thing that brings glory to the country and washes away the shame, no matter what era she is in, this is the case.
"Okay!" Yu Hai smiled instantly and said impatiently. This was what he was waiting for, "That's great!"
Su Qingyun looked at his sudden change of expression and felt something was wrong for some reason. His tone was so heavy just now, why did he change his face in an instant? Couldn't she have been tricked?
Yu Hai’s smile is full of meaning. Mr. Lu, the great writer, once said: "Chinese people always like to be harmonious and eclectic. For example, if you say that this room is too dark and a window must be opened here, everyone must It’s not allowed, but if you advocate removing the roof of the house, they will be willing to mediate and open the windows.”
He knew that Su Qingyun would most likely not agree to join the mathematics talent group, so he mentioned the matter of joining first, and then the competition. In this way, she would not be able to refuse once, and then refuse a second time. ?
Chen Zheyu remained silent. He touched his nose. What Team Leader Yu is best at is letting people walk into his trap unknowingly. The junior sister is still young.
He heard that Li Siyuan was doing a good job in the factory, and he was deceived by team leader Yu in this way.
"Then it's settled." Yu Hai thought for a while and continued, "Because you are not in the capital, you can't practice with everyone, so I will send you the competition practice questions directly. Just report your results after a period of time. I believe you can do a great job. Even if you have difficulties, I believe Mr. Chu will be able to help you."
This is why he is relieved that Su Qingyun will not stay in the capital to practice with everyone. Su Qingyun has Mr. Chu by his side. Mr. Chu teaches his apprentices, and they will definitely not be worse than they are here.
"But before the competition, you still have to come to the capital to train intensively for a period of time. You need to get familiar with everyone, and you also need to be trained on various precautions for going abroad."
"I understand." Su Qingyun nodded, this was just like the pre-match training in later generations.
"Okay." Yu Hai finally breathed a sigh of relief, "On behalf of the Chinese mathematics community, I would like to thank you."
Su Qingyun said hurriedly: "Team Leader Yu. It's too serious for you to say this." She couldn't bear such heavy words.
Yu Hai laughed. If Su Qingyun can really take on the important responsibility of the younger generation of Chinese mathematics, then this sentence is not serious.
"Then I'll leave first." It was getting late, so Su Qingyun said goodbye.
Yu Hai: "I'll give it to you."
"No, you're busy."
"Well, Xiao Chen, you send your junior sister off," Yu Hai said to Chen Zheyu.
Chen Zheyu escorted Su Qingyun out of the research institute. Before leaving, he gently patted Su Qingyun on the shoulder and said in a gentle voice, "Qingyun, what team leader Yu just said, you don't need to feel too much pressure."
"And there are us. We are also part of the Chinese mathematics community. Even if the sky falls, we will be there to support it. You don't need to rush in front."
Chen Zheyu was worried that what team leader Yu just said was too deep and heavy and would put pressure on Su Qingyun, so he comforted her like this.
"I know, senior brother, I won't feel pressure." Su Qingyun smiled easily. In the so-called competition, there are losers and losers. It is normal. She just faces it with a normal heart, even in international competitions.
However, she always liked to win.
