Chapter 348 Beating up a child
"Isn't it? Is it so scary? The gap is so great that I suddenly have great doubts about whether I can become a computer expert in the future."
"It's really scary. I originally thought that answering the first question would be strong enough, but I didn't expect that the speed would get faster and faster. The discussion now should not be about whether they can win the championship, but how much time they can win. Have you finished answering all the questions?”
"Indeed, you can only feel the powerlessness when you see a peerless genius with your own eyes."
The competition venue of Qihang Theater was filled with all kinds of discussions.
But the rankings scrolling on the big screen are always the same.
[Are you here to compete for second place? 】
This team name is like being imprinted on the top of the big screen. When paired with the team name, it's like God overlooking all living beings.
But the most exaggerated thing is the number of answers after the team name.
The number of answers displayed on the big screen is the number of questions certified by the technical team to be correct.
The most exciting part of previous years' WorldFinals was actually the jump in the number of questions in the final stage.
If you ask ordinary viewers to look at the code they wrote, there is a high probability that they will not understand anything.
Only the results represented on the big screen are the focus that the public can understand and pay attention to.
In fact, every year there will be a team that is still working hard before the end and finally overtakes the rankings. Those times are particularly exciting.
There were even some who overtook the number of questions in the last minute and finally won the championship by relying on their opponents to take more penalty time.
But all this became no longer suspense in today's game.
Because the second-ranked team has only answered 3 questions.
But the top-ranked Demon King team has already completed answering 5 questions.
And some careful people discovered that it seemed that the team's answering speed gradually accelerated as the competition progressed.
They didn't know that when Xu Qingshan was sitting next to the computer and controlling the poplar tree to answer questions, his mouth was about to burst into laughter.
He didn’t even know what this year’s ACM-ICPC question group was thinking about.
The game was postponed for two months. I thought I was going to use some big move, but it turned out to be an extra move for myself?
Except for the first two questions, which are more conventional, the following questions all follow the most cutting-edge basic algorithmic issues in machine learning.
For more students who are still studying theory and practicing algorithms, it is quite stressful to solve these actual engineering problems.
But for Xu Qingshan, these things are the leftovers from his play.
This is really a dimensionality reduction blow.
He even stopped sitting in front of the computer to fight in person, and directly assigned it to Yang Shu, while he controlled the situation behind his back.
You should know that the members of the ACM-ICPC question group and the members organizing the competition are not the same group of people, so the question writer did not know that Xu Qingshan also came to participate in the competition.
When others play a game, perhaps it is a bit excessive to be both a player and a referee.
When Xu Qingshan plays a game, he is directly the source of the problem.
Computer questions and Chinese language questions are very different. There is no chance that the original author does not know his intention here.
This makes these questions almost ready-made answer formulas in Xu Qingshan's eyes.
Beat the children violently.
This is the first social lesson Xu Qingshan teaches these computer kids.
Xu Qingshan let Yang Shu go up.
The original intention is to train this interesting young man. I have the standard answers in my hand and can point out his questions at any time.
Jiang Huanxi on the side was calculating the algorithms for the next two big questions in advance.
He can take over at any time and guarantee his group's championship status.
But he was surprised to find that he seemed to have underestimated Yang Shu and his comrade Xiao Jiang.
Yangshu's speed is not slow at all, and his accuracy is very high.
Although the ideas and steps are a bit too cumbersome in some places, the final output result is still correct and can be passed in the OJ judgment.
Xiao Jiang is even more amazing.
You must know that during the last competition, Xiao Jiang was still there to make soy sauce.
But this time, Yang Shu hasn’t finished the first four questions yet.
Jiang Huanxi had already completed the algorithm framework for the last two big questions and verified the ideas. Seeing that Xu Qingshan and Yang Shu were not finished yet, he started to try to fill in the program code himself.
Self-taught people are so frightening, and those who study mathematics do have universal talents in science and engineering.
There is no suspense.
There is no possibility of a comeback.
Even in the second half of the game, Xu Qingshan suddenly felt that even if he and Jiang Huanxi didn't come to participate, Yang Shu seemed to be able to complete the legendary operation of the Huaqing Tower leader by himself, single-handedly challenging a team.
Put it this way.
On the contrary, his own light was too strong, which blocked the light of the poplar tree.
And Yang Shu doesn't seem to care about this at all. Xu Qingshan likes this guy who only focuses on technology and interests.
He was already thinking about how to lure Yang Shu into his laboratory team.
but.
There is a high probability that Mei Hong will have a hard time getting through it.
In the arena, some teams looked at the team's name on the big screen with unwillingness and despair in their eyes.
These teams have been preparing for the championship for a whole year. They have an in-depth understanding of each other and even predicted the opponent's answering rhythm.
But in the end, it was the sudden appearance of the Kyungseong University team that ended everything with an unsuspicious result.
If it is not the first place, there is no difference between the gold medal and the gold medal.
Even the difference between a gold medal and a silver medal is not that big.
The game time has not even ended yet, Xu Qingshan and his team have already completed all eleven questions, and with the terrifying record of no penalty time for the entire eleven questions, they have firmly secured the first place on the list.
"This is really the least suspenseful and interesting game. I only felt the horror in this game."
"If they still participate next year, we won't come. It's boring, so boring."
"I don't even know what the point of reporting this match is anymore."
Before the players could say anything, the coaches of these teams that were aiming to compete for the championship were filled with grief and anger towards the staff of the technical working group.
As for the contestants, each of them is still taking advantage of the last ten minutes to try one more question.
At the last minute, when everyone's scores are about the same, sometimes one more question can jump from the bronze medal to the silver medal even if there is a little extra time penalty.
Inside the venue, there are all kinds of strange things.
Xu Qingshan and the others felt relaxed. After answering the questions, they went to the rest area to sit and rest, while eating some desserts and drinks sent by the working team and admiring the various activities in the venue. Until the end of the game, it completely came to an end.
At the award ceremony, only Xu Qingshan and his team were smiling. The other teams that received the gold medal had dark faces.
I don’t know if it’s because they were still influenced by Xu Qingshan’s team, or if it’s just their strength.
The teams that won the gold medal this time not only completed the same number of questions, but also the completion time was almost the same. It is possible that one or two penalty times can complete the overtaking of each other.
The originally exciting championship battle was immediately thrown into suspense by Xu Qingshan and the others.
Standing on the stage, Xu Qingshan took the microphone as the captain.
"Now we invite the champion team from Kyungseong University to give their acceptance speech."
The host didn't even dare to pronounce Xu Qingshan's team name.
Xu Qingshan took the microphone, thought for a moment, and said concisely.
"I think some people may not be able to recognize me yet. Let me introduce myself briefly. I am Xu Qingshan from Capital University, who proved the twin prime conjecture last year, and who is the one who stands out while drinking and dancing on ICML. ”
"I am very happy to participate in this competition, but I will not participate in the next competition."
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Xu Qingshan's words were like thunder on the ground. The different eyes in the audience were all stunned for a moment.
Those strong teams that were still grim-faced and reluctant, with just the word despair written on their faces, were like a dead tree that suddenly regained its vitality.
"The experience of answering questions is good, the direction of the questions is well chosen, and the contestants are very passionate. I am very happy."
However, Xu Qingshan's speech was full of the flavor of a superior leader's speech.
Anyone who can come here is a genius, and any genius will be arrogant.
But in the next second, the arrogance of these geniuses turned into respecting their teachers.
"I recently established a new mathematics and computer research team at Kyungseong University, and I have a high degree of cooperation with a number of world-class research teams in the field of machine learning at Kyungseong University's Information Technology Center. The latest results should be available soon."
"If there are students who have participated in the ACM-ICPC competition and are interested, you can contact me and study my graduate studies after you get your postgraduate spot."
Xu Qingshan paused, looked at the coaches again, and said in English.
"If there are coaches who are interested in my work, they are also welcome to join my team as researchers. Each person has one position, one position and one salary. The salary is negotiable. Thank you."
Not to mention the contestants, even the coaches started whispering in private.
Chairman William and President Liu of Bingcheng Engineering University, who were just standing aside and still laughing, both laughed a little stiffly.
This guy really turned the award podium into a recruiting scene.
Later, Xu Qingshan enthusiastically showed everyone the way to the delivery mailbox of his research team, and his main goal was to never leave anything empty.
After this somewhat absurd and less formal ending, this boring global finals truly came to an end, and all teams embarked on their return journey.
But Xu Qingshan and the others failed to leave immediately.
Because Principal Liu kept them for one more day and wanted to entertain them.
In the private room, Principal Liu was so drunk that he shook his head and toasted a glass of wine to Xu Qingshan with a wry smile.
"Xiao Xu, over the years, I have convinced you among young people. You really know how to play, but my old bones can't stand your torment like this."
"We at Bingcheng Engineering University worked hard to successfully host this competition, but we did not expect that it would be such a competition without any suspense."
Principal Liu complained some more.
Xu Qingshan understood.
Everything has been done, and complaining at this time is nothing more than seeking some benefits and compensation.
They are definitely not short of money, but it is impossible for them to give themselves to people.
There is only one answer.
Xu Qingshan accepted the glass of wine from Principal Liu with a smile on his face and drank it happily.
"Thank you, Principal Liu, for taking care of us and allowing me to be so willful on stage."
"If there is anything I can help with in the future on military projects, Colonel Liu, just ask and I will do as much as I can. In this military industry, I will definitely give priority to cooperating with you."
Xu Qingshan poured himself another glass and hooked up with Principal Liu.
"Come! Drink! It's all in the wine!"
Principal Liu was a little confused after hearing this, but he was dragged by Xu Qingshan to drink a few more drinks.
"Eh? Is that what I meant?"
Principal Liu asked in a daze, but Xu Qingshan didn't hear anything.
A banquet where guests and hosts enjoy themselves.
The next day, Xu Qingshan flew back to Jingcheng University. A new banner was hung in the school to celebrate Jingcheng University's successful victory in the ACM-ICPC Global Finals. This championship was the first time that Jingcheng University won the ICPC event.
Xu Qingshan and the three of them were even taken to the school gate to take a group photo.
Even Lao Mei shamelessly came over and took several photos, even wearing his most beautiful suit.
"Meiyuan, how about the Information Technology Center?"
During the break, Xu Qingshan asked Mei Hongdao, who was still looking at himself in the mirror.
Mei Hong stopped moving, with an exaggerated expression, and took Xu Qingshan's arm.
"You really didn't make those things yourself? How can those stupid foreigners be so efficient? Let me tell you, if we make things ourselves, there is no need to borrow their names. Our Beijing University Information Technology Co., Ltd. Although I’m not very famous, I, Lao Mei, am a bit thin-noodled.”
"Hey, hey, Lao Mei, you are looking down on people. They are indeed doing the work. I will just help explain a few key points. What about the pattern? Make the pattern bigger, make the cake bigger and stronger, and attract more people. If there are more capable stupid foreigners, won’t our international rating of Beijing University also rise?”
Xu Qingshan was angry that he would not argue and said something about Mei Hong.
At this moment, it was impossible to tell who the dean was.
"Those are all heavyweight results. I feel that at least three or four of them can get the best results and best papers. If these are all counted on our Academy of Information Science and Technology and Information Science and Technology Center, we will end this year directly It’s world-class.”
Mei Hong's mouth was flat and he said with a sour taste.
Xu Qingshan smiled and patted his shoulder, comforting him.
"Aren't we here? What's the hurry? As long as we are here, will our Beijing University of Science and Technology still be world-class? In a few years, we will be among the top in the world. And don't worry, although the project is named after their research group , but our Peking University is also a core cooperative unit, and we will have a share in any evaluation at that time.”
"Oh, that's good."
Mei Hong nodded, accepting it.
Suddenly, he thought of something and turned to Xu Qingshan.
"By the way, will Old Liu entertain you when we go to Bingcheng this time?"
"Yes, I had a lot of fun drinking. We have also agreed to cooperate on any military projects at that time."
"Huh? Cooperation? But Lao Liu will be transferred to our School of Information Science and Technology at Beijing University next semester?"
"Huh?"
