Li You

For five hours, the calculation paper was filled with formulas and calculations, as well as the answers that Lin Chao crossed out.

The difficulty of the second question soared!

Lin Chao spent half an hour just looking at the questions. He would find a loophole in his own thinking when he had just started to have some ideas. After fixing this loophole, another one would appear.

These loopholes seemed to be endless.

He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. Finally, he put down the pen. He couldn't solve this problem by himself.

So, he sent the question to his friend, Li You.

Li You was a computer science expert who had participated in the competition with him before. Although he was still a student, he was already the pillar of Beijing University's network and the Computer Technology Center.

Li You, who was busy with his research project, was immediately attracted by Lin Chao's question.

This question was interesting!

He immediately put down his research and started to calculate on a piece of draft paper. After a while, he turned on his computer and built a data model to help him with his calculations.

Li You roughly knew the idea of this problem and could also come up with a calculation model. However, the huge amount of calculation was not something his brain could complete, and to build a data model, he needed to solve many programming obstacles.

He estimated that it would take at least ten hours to solve the obstacles and complete the calculations!

This question seemed to have a clear train of thought, but it was a test of one's overall quality.

The person who came up with this question was not only a genius in mathematics but also a genius in programming. Such a person could not be found even at Beijing University.

Li You buried his head in the computer and started typing the code.

It was late at night. Lin Chao was drinking coffee in his dormitory to refresh himself as he worked on his calculations. Li You in the Technology Center also turned on two computers to solve this problem.

Finally, at 8:30 a.m., Li You got the answer. He sent the answer and the calculation model to Lin Chao.

"Although I calculated it, there are still some loopholes in the algorithm. I can only do this much."

Lin Chao's mouth was wide open when he saw this sentence. Even a guru like Li You couldn't do it perfectly. How great of an academician must the person who came up with this question be?

"Who came up with this question?"

"It's a contestant from the House of Scientists. I want to form a team with him!" Lin Chao replied.

After a while, Li You replied, "I'll join you."

In Haicheng, Guo Miao had just arrived at school.

When she woke up in the morning, no one had sent her the correct answer. Although there were people discussing this question in the group, most of them said that it was too difficult or they had sent her the wrong answer.

And now, someone had finally sent the correct answer to the question, along with a message.

"Hello, Master. We are students from Beijing University. We really hope to work with you!"

She opened the process of answering the first question. The steps for the first question were more cumbersome, but the calculation model and answer for the second question were correct although a small detail was overlooked.

However, it was already considered very good to be able to do this. After all, he was a student at Beijing University and had some skills.

She sent a message to that person, saying that she would go to Beijing to join them in preparation for the competition.

Lin Chao was a little puzzled. All the top talents in the country should be in the capital, but this Big Boss said he was coming to meet them.

"Boss, are you abroad right now?" he asked curiously.

"I'm in Haicheng."

Li You's heart skipped a beat when he saw this.

'Haicheng? The place where the hacker guru Wu Wei mentioned is?'

Haicheng was indeed full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

After she replied, she continued to read. While she was reading, Wang Meng, who was sitting in front, suddenly turned her head and started to say in a strange tone, "Don't forget that the preliminary test for the English competition is this afternoon. Remember to attend it on time. Don't let me down!

She emphasized the word "don't."

Guo Miao ignored her. She remembered the English test in the afternoon, but she had nothing to worry about.

After being a judge for so many years, participating in the competition was a piece of cake.

In the afternoon, Guo Miao arrived at the initial test site on time.

The preliminary test was just a simple written and listening test. Although the questions were not very difficult, there were a lot of questions. It was a test of vocabulary and grammar.

After reading so many English Literature pieces, these reading questions were child's play for Guo Miao.

In less than half an hour, she handed in her paper in advance and left.

The invigilator looked at her test paper that only bore answers and no scrawlings. She was extremely shocked. This student was incredibly formidable.
