Start as a top student and move towards the stars and the sea

Qiu Chengtong's words gave Ning Chen more confidence. This old man who usually seemed quite serious also had a friendly side.

"By the way, Ning Chen, have you ever discussed these theories of yours with anyone besides me?"

Just when Ning Chen was about to leave, Qiu Chengtong suddenly asked Ning Chen this question again.

"Well... I only talked to my roommate Lin You a little bit, but he said he didn't understand it well and said he would study it in detail after I published the paper. Apart from Lin You, I didn't discuss it with anyone else. pass."

"Ning Chen, I suggest that before you officially release the paper, you should not discuss the content of this research with anyone else except me, including several other professors. Your research topic is completely unknown in the entire training camp. The capital city in China has the most research significance. You are still young, so you may not know that academia is not as pure as you think..."

Listening to Qiu Chengtong's reminder, Ning Chen also began to realize this problem.

Speaking of which, if they are just some research topics with decent research significance, many professors will not take such results seriously.

But the topic Ning Chen studied is indeed of great significance. Even many researchers at the level of mathematics professors have never had research results of this level in their lives.

Ning Chen had also heard some negative news in the academic world and knew that what Qiu Chengtong said was not alarmist.

"Of course, if you don't trust me enough, you can also choose to keep the next research results confidential." Qiu Chengtong said with a smile.

"No, no, no, Professor Qiu, how could this happen?" Ning Chen waved his hand and said.

Ning Chen naturally trusted Qiu Chengtong to be able to choose to return to China when he was successful and devote himself to the education work in the Chinese mathematics community.

"Okay, we have been chatting for a day, and it's time to give others some time. You should also pay attention to rest. You stay up late these days, and the dark circles are coming out. Only by maintaining a good physical condition can you stay healthy for a long time. Continue the research work.”

When Ning Chen was doing research, he would often forget the passage of time, and staying up late was a common occurrence.

Even Qiu Chengtong himself kept a pair of dumbbells in the office, and Ning Chen also knew that it was time to get back to some physical exercise.

Coming out of Qiu Chengtong's office, Ning Chen considered his future sports choices.

When he was at Shengzhou University, Ning Chen would play golf with his classmates two or three times a week. However, at Shuimu University, Ning Chen didn't have any familiar golfers and could only choose to play with some unknown people.

This will make the organization of the game much more difficult, and basketball is a sport with strong physical confrontation. People who don't know you may attack without distinction, which will increase the risk of injury.

Ning Chen thought about it and decided that running was more suitable for now.

Running can enhance cardiopulmonary function and improve one's physical strength, which will help Ning Chen study and research in a better state.

Moreover, the risk of injury in running is much smaller than that in basketball. As long as you develop a running plan according to your own situation and proceed step by step, there will basically be no negative effects.

In the evening, Ning Chen put on sportswear and came to the playground, ready to start her running training.

"It's my first time to run 3,000 meters." Ning Chen thought to himself.

Long-distance running is one of the sports that Ning Chen is good at. Ning Chen participated in school-level long-distance running competitions when he was in junior high school and high school. Although he did not win the championship, there was no problem in entering the finals.

When Ning Chen was preparing to time the run and start running, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Ning Chen!"

Ning Chen turned around and found that the person was Song Xiyun.

Today's Song Xiyun has a completely different style. Wearing a white sports half-sleeve and black shorts, she really has the dashing and heroic appearance of a sportswoman.

Song Xiyun's height is about 1.7 meters, which is half a head shorter than Ning Chen. However, her legs are not shorter than Ning Chen's, and her body proportions are very good.

"Sister Song, what a coincidence, you come to run too."

Ning Chen accidentally glanced at Song Xiyun's white legs and sighed in her heart that these legs were no worse than Guan Xiaotong's.

"Yeah, I come here for a run every night. Why haven't I seen you before?"

"Oh, this is my first time here." Ning Chen said embarrassedly.

"Want to run together?" Song Xiyun invited.

Ning Chen hesitated for a moment, then immediately agreed.

"Okay, I'll let you take care of me."

Ning Chen just talked about it, but in his heart he felt that Song Xiyun, a girl, was not as good as herself no matter how often she ran.

Anyway, it was the first day that Ning Chen started regular running exercise. It didn't matter if he ran with Song Xiyun first to find his condition. In the worst case, he would regain his condition and then run on his own.

"Come on, let's get started."

Ning Chen and Song Xiyun ran side by side around the playground. At the same time, Ning Chen pressed the stopwatch on his phone, wanting to test his current level.

At the beginning, Ning Chen felt that running was relatively easy, but after two laps, Ning Chen's breathing gradually became unstable.

"Song Xiyun's speed is not bad." Ning Chen said in his heart.

Ning Chen had to admit that Song Xiyun's slender legs were very advantageous in running. This made Song Xiyun take a long stride with each step. An ordinary girl's three steps might only be as good as Song Xiyun's two steps.

Compared with Ning Chen's unstable aura, Song Xiyun has always maintained a stable aura. Obviously, this speed is completely within the range that Song Xiyun can bear.

As he ran, Ning Chen felt that his body was gradually reaching its limit, but as a girl, Song Xiyun didn't say anything, so Ning Chen had no choice but to endure and keep running.

Finally, Ning Chen counted that the two of them had completed seven and a half laps, and the three thousand meters were finally completed.

After stopping, Ning Chen looked at the time on the stopwatch.

"14 minutes and 6 seconds... I didn't expect that I have regressed so much." Ning Chenxin said.

Compared with his peak performance in high school, Ning Chen now takes two minutes longer to run 3,000 meters.

Of course, Ning Chen also knew in his heart that even at his current level, Ning Chen should be able to defeat most college students.

After all, Ning Chen usually plays basketball. Those students who stay in the dormitory and play games every day may not be able to last even one thousand meters.

"I still have five laps, so I'll keep running!"

Song Xiyun did not stop. After waving to Ning Chen, she continued to run forward in her original state.

To be more precise, Song Xiyun's speed even became faster without Ning Chen. It seemed that it was just to accommodate Ning Chen that Song Xiyun did not completely lift the seal.

Seeing this situation, Ning Chen was stunned.

"There are still five laps...that means Song Xiyun has to run five thousand meters every day?"

A girl can run 5,000 meters at such a pace. Even if she does not meet the standards of a third-level athlete, she is definitely very fast among running enthusiasts.

Ning Chen did not leave immediately. While resting on the spot, she also wanted to see if Song Xiyun was really as powerful as she said.

Under Ning Chen's gaze, Song Xiyun ran the remaining five laps before stopping.

During the break, Ning Chen bought two bottles of room-temperature mineral water nearby. When he saw Song Xiyun finish running, he handed one bottle over.

"Thank you, but why is it at room temperature?"

"It's not good to drink cold water after exercise. It's still healthy." Ning Chen said with a smile.

"I didn't see it, but you are quite healthy."

Song Xiyun took the water from Ning Chen, and the two started chatting while drinking the water.

"Sister Song, do you have to run so many laps every day?"

“Ever since I started college, I’ve basically been running every day, except when the weather is bad or there are other special circumstances.”

Ning Chen also nodded when he heard this, knowing that the so-called special circumstances should include those days when he feels unwell every month.

"No wonder you run so well. I will have to practice more in the future."

"Then you can run with me every day from now on. Well... just think of it as my way of saying thank you for asking you questions."

Ning Chen felt that Song Xiyun's suggestion was indeed good. Although it seemed a bit embarrassing to be unable to outrun a girl, Song Xiyun was not an ordinary girl after all. Her physical strength and speed were already at the level of a quasi-athlete.

"Okay, then it's still the same time every day?" Ning Chen asked.

"Basically, we can contact you via QQ."

"Okay, that's settled."
