I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

A basketball game made Shen Qi and Xu Rui reconcile as before. The two drank iced Coke outside the school shop, feeling comfortable.

After returning to the classroom, Xu Rui was no longer in high spirits, and the domineering honey juice disappeared, replaced by listlessness.

Shen Qi has not forgotten the math problems that Zhang Wanbang left him, and there are still three problems that have not been solved. Mu's law, and the subsequent inferences proposed by Fourier and Poincaré, which involve the theoretical system of infinite order matrices.

Although Gao Dai is abstract, it is an introductory course for the Department of Mathematics after all. Even if he cannot fully understand those abstract concepts, he can barely follow the routine by relying on rote memorization.

Shen Qi struggled to follow the routine until 10 o'clock in the evening, and finally completed the answers to the last three questions.

The next morning, Shen Qi came to Zhang Wanbang's office and handed the answer sheet to Zhang Wanbang.

"It seems that you have encountered some obstacles." Zhang Wanbang took the answer sheet and quickly scanned it. Shen Qi encountered obstacles as he expected.

"That's right, Mr. Zhang, since the matrix is ​​derived from the determinant, what the hell is the use of the quaternion? I thought about it all night and didn't figure it out. In fact, I was blind to the last three questions."

"I first learned applied mathematics and then transferred to a normal school. I didn't understand this problem until I was a sophomore. Shen Qi, go back to the classroom first, and come to me at noon. In addition, I must remind you not to put all your energy on In mathematics, you don’t want to learn Chinese? You don’t want English? I am your mathematics teacher and your class teacher, and I can tell you responsibly that the college entrance examination will not only take mathematics as a course.”

"Oh okay, I know."

Shen Qi returned to the classroom, took out "Advanced Algebra" and continued to study, but did not listen to the Chinese class.

"I am addicted to mathematics and can't extricate myself, how can I break it?"

After school at noon, Shen Qi came to Zhang Wanbang's office again.

Zhang Wanbang gave him two pieces of paper, one was the review of yesterday's five questions, and the other was a blank piece of paper on which five new questions were written.

Shen Qi finished his lunch and began to study these two topics.

Zhang Wanbang reviewed the five questions yesterday and left a note in the blank space of the answer sheet:

"While mathematics appears outwardly to be no more than a language or a tool, its most vivid concepts can provide keys to new fields of thought."

"The determinants and matrices are completely reforms in the language of mathematics. Shen Qi, you must have a deep understanding of this before you can make a difference in algebra."

"The third question, you misunderstood the Frobenius characteristic equation. Remember, the minimum polynomial is the polynomial with the lowest degree satisfied by the matrix, and it is unique."

"The fourth question, f(λ)=(λ-λ1)^k1(λ-λ2)^k2...(λ-λi)^ki, I have not witnessed your problem-solving process, but I can be sure Say, you’re copying Jordan’s standard type mechanically.”

"However, you can come up with the correct answer mechanically, which proves that you have two skills. At least you know how to explore the routine, but this routine is not the easiest one."

"The meaning of mathematics is to solve the most complex problems in the simplest and most efficient way."

"Now let me tell you the most concise routine of Jordan's standard form, let J=XXXX..."

...

Zhang Wanbang's annotations on the answer sheet are the essence of his lifelong learning. He uses limited space to explain the core mathematical ideas and skills, and he is giving Shen Qi advice.

This cannot be learned in textbooks, at least not as specific, focused, and targeted as Zhang Wanbang's annotations.

Shen Qi understood in seconds, and the bottleneck that had troubled him for more than a week broke through in an instant: "So it is, so it is! Teacher Zhang's writing is all the essence, and I have benefited a lot!"

A line of text flashed on the system: "The host has been taught by an expert in the field of mathematics, and has comprehended new professional skills, with +100 Xueba points."

"100 points! It's so spicy!" Shen Qi jumped up excitedly. Teacher Zhang, you are an expert. You taught me knowledge and helped me earn my points. A thousand words can be summed up in four words: Teacher's kindness is like a mountain .

Shen Qi absorbed and digested the five questions from yesterday, numbered this "secret volume" as "Internal Reference 1", and put it in his schoolbag.

Next, Shen Qi began to study "Internal Reference 2", that is, the five questions Zhang Wanbang asked today.

Mathematics, unlike other natural sciences, cannot test theoretical hypotheses with experimental equipment.

Mathematics experiments mainly rely on brain supplementation. After fully understanding various theories and concepts, you can improve your proficiency through derivation, proof, hypothesis, etc.

Shen Qi's routine for the next two weeks was to go to Zhang Wanbang's office once every morning and noon to deliver the "internal reference".

For Shen Qi, Zhang Wanbang has two identities. In the classroom, Zhang Wanbang is an ordinary mathematics teacher, and he explains high school mathematics knowledge points.

Outside of the classroom, Zhang Wanbang is an "expert" who instructs Shen Qi, and he spreads deeper mathematical knowledge.

"The host listens carefully to a physics class, and the master points +1."

"The host didn't listen carefully to the Chinese class, and the master points +0. But the host solved a math problem in the Chinese class, and the master points +5."

"The host has done 1 hour of physical exercise such as running and playing ball, and the points of the master +1."

"The host has been taught by an expert in the field of mathematics, comprehended new professional skills, and gained +100 academic points."

"The host self-studies "Mathematical Analysis" for 3 hours, and the master points +10."

...

Shen Qi's schedule is very full, and he earns 120~130 Xueba points steadily every day.

Among them, the channel with the greatest contribution is "getting advice from experts in the field of mathematics", that is, the extracurricular interaction between Shen Qi and Zhang Wanbang.

Zhang Wanbang explained high school mathematics in class, but he was unable to provide Shen Qi with even a single point of Xueba points.

But in the more professional field of mathematics, Zhang Wanbang steadily provided 100 Xueba points to Shen Qi every day.

Driven by the "teacher-apprentice model", Shen Qi's mathematical combat ability has been further improved. His "internal reference" series has been collected to "internal reference 15", and the research scope has expanded to indefinite integrals, Fourier series, double leaf rotation double Curved surfaces, ellipsoids and other fields cover several branches such as advanced algebra, fractions, and mathematical solutions. Shen Qi is now going to take the professional exams for freshmen and sophomores in the Department of Mathematics, and he should not fail the subject.

April was a month of rapid progress for Shen Qi.

On April 20th, Shen Qi accumulated 4205 Xueba points: "Finally, I can upgrade again."

Mathematics Level 2 to Mathematics Level 3 requires 3,000 Xueba points.

"System, I want to upgrade, and the math indicators will be upgraded to level 3."

"With the deduction of 3000 Xueba points, the host's math indicators will be upgraded to level 3."

Levels 2 and 3 are both defined as advanced levels by the system, which can be understood as primary advanced and intermediate advanced.

Host, Shen Qi

age, 17

1. Math Level 3 (0/5000)

2. Sports level 1 (0/1000)

3. Chinese level 0 (0/100)

3. English level 0 (0/100)

3. Physics Level 0 (0/100)

3. Chemistry level 0 (0/100)

3. Biological Level 0 (0/100)

3. History Level 0 (0/100)

3. Geography Level 0 (0/100)

3. Politics Level 0 (0/100)

Balanced Scholar Points: 1205

The subject ranking system was carried out. Shen Qi's mathematics index was far ahead with a level 3, his sports index was ranked second with a level 1, and the other eight subjects were tied for third with a level 0.

To upgrade Mathematics Level 3 to Level 5, a total of 15,000 Xueba points are required.

Shen Qi has a steady income of 100+ Xueba points every day, and 15,000 Xueba points can be obtained within a foreseeable time.

Calculating, at the latest in 4 months, Shen Qi will be able to accumulate 15,000 Xueba points, and he will definitely be the first to score level 5 in mathematics before graduating from high school.
