Chapter 347 Are you here to compete for second place?

"Me? I'm a player."

Xu Qingshan smiled honestly and touched his head, looking very sincere.

Huaiwus opened his eyes wide and raised his finger, pointing at Xu Qingshan. His skin, which was so white and a little sickly, turned red this time.

It can be seen that he is very excited.

But he pointed for a long time, but could not say the second sentence.

"Ding!"

When the elevator reached the bottom floor, Xu Qingshan walked out of the elevator with Jiang Huanxi and Yang Shu. He turned back and left a warm message towards Huaiwus.

"Thank you very much for the invitation, Wyus, but I think I may not have any chance to teach in Warsaw. I now have my own laboratory at Beijing University. If you have any plans to come to China in the future, be sure to contact me as soon as possible. .”

"As for this game... I hope we can exchange more experiences after the game."

"Goodbye and good luck."

Xu Qingshan waved his hand and walked away gracefully.

Wyus was left poking the elevator button frustratedly in the elevator.

"Bad thing!"

"Xu is simply a pure bad guy! This is a prank!"

With a somewhat sad and angry voice, the elevator door slowly closed.

"You are so bad."

"Not like a good person."

Jiang Huanxi and Yang Shu each commented on Xu Qingshan.

Xu Qingshan always maintained a devilish smile on his face.

"Don't just blame me, you did it too. Do you think our team name does not require your approval?"

Xu Qingshan pointed to the information about the teams participating in the competition that was being displayed in the lobby on the first floor. The team's serial number, country and region, team name, and university were all scrolling on it in real time.

The No. 1 and No. 2 teams of Beijing University both had quotas previously obtained by the school, and Xu Qingshan and the others were the third team of Beijing University.

I saw Xu Qingshan's team name on the big screen.

[Team No. 69, Hua Xia, Beijing University No. 3, (champion of the Shanghai Station of the Asian Division), team name: Are you here to compete for second place? 】

mad!

A capital word for crazy!

There were names from various teams in the field, but they were the only ones as crazy as Xu Qingshan.

Even Lou Tiancheng, who was known as the leader of ACM Loushenlou in the past few years, would never dare to put up such a sign in WorldFinals.

Lou Tiancheng is the proud student of Academician Yao of Huaqing University. Academician Yao is the Turing Award winner who personally created the most powerful computer class in China, "Yao Class", Yao Qizhi.

After Academician Yao discovered Lou Tiancheng's super talent in programming in Yao Class, he has been focusing on guiding Lou Tiancheng to take the route of machine learning.

Lou Tiancheng's talent in programming is unparalleled in the world. He was once recognized as the number one computer programmer among college students in China. He has repeatedly performed miraculous performances of one person challenging other teams.

Because of his strong programming skills, he was called the "Master Lou" by the students who participated in the ACM competition, and students from Huaqing also called him "The Master" when they saw him.

He won the Google Global Programming Challenge the year before last in 2008, and successfully defended his title at the end of 2009 last year.

But he is such a legendary figure with great personal strength in the programming world.

In 2007 and 2009, it failed twice and missed the global championship, both ranking second.

One was due to a time penalty, and the other was purely due to luck.

Therefore, it is possible to make such a name in the ACM/ICPC Global Finals, a place where young computer elites from around the world gather.

Anyone who comes to see it will say that they are crazy.

At this time, Xu Qingshan and the others came to their positions to familiarize themselves with the configuration in advance, and after some simple training, they heard the previous teams chatting.

Not far in front of them, three little Asans with darker skin were chatting in English.

Xu Qingshan's five senses had long been sharper than ordinary people's during previous long-term training. After hearing the words, he asked Yang Shu to take over the computer to practice, and then he moved a stool to eavesdrop and eat melon in front of him.

"Hey, have you seen that team from Beijing University in China? It's the one two rows behind us, one girl and two boys."

"See, what's wrong? I'm doing this environmental test. There should be no problem with the computer. I think I'm in good condition these days. We should have a chance to touch the silver medal this time."

"Just them, look at the team name, are you here to compete for second place? I have never heard of this team. They are so arrogant. I am just waiting to see their jokes and see when they can answer the question. One question.”

Xu Qingshan raised his eyebrows.

Good guy, do these little Asans not know me at all?

Although I am not a super celebrity that everyone needs to know.

But over the past six months or so, I have become quite capable of gaining a sense of presence in the global field of vision.

It seems that the results I have shown in the computer field are still too average.

Xu Qingshan told himself secretly.

If he were participating in a mathematics competition, he felt that nine out of ten students would recognize him when he entered.

After all, as a top student in mathematics, if you don’t know the youngest and most likely top young mathematician in our generation who can definitely book the Fields Medal, then you have not done your job well.

Xu Qingshan had a good meal, but found that there were actually many teams in the competition venue who were discussing their team names and looking down on them.

Returning to his position in the team, Xu Qingshan was smiling broadly.

"What are you listening to? Why are you smiling so happily, as if you have picked up hundreds of yuan?"

Jiang Huanxi glanced at Xu Qingshan strangely. She was optimizing her algorithm quickly. She had already studied the ACM-ICPC algorithm questions in previous years and found the part where she could use her expertise. She was preparing for the competition seriously. .

"Do you think I am a person who would be happy after picking up a few hundred yuan?"

Xu Qingshan sneered, unable to suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth.

"I went out for a walk and found that they were all discussing our team name, and they didn't even know me. They were all ready to laugh at us."

The more Xu Qingshan talked, the happier he became, almost laughing.

Yang Shu looked at Xu Qingshan with his dead fish eyes. He couldn't understand what Xu Qingshan was happy about.

"What's so fun about this?"

Jiang Huanxi looked at her boyfriend, who seemed to be having a seizure, with a puzzled look on his face.

Xu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Isn't this kind of excellent face-slapping material fun? We exploded fiercely in the direct competition, broke their expectations, and taunted them fiercely. What a program effect!"

"...You are still so evil..."

Jiang Huanxi rolled her eyes at Xu Qingshan.

"Life is short, take pleasure in the moment."

Xu Qingshan smiled playfully.

Suddenly, the poplar tree next to him burst out laughing.

"What's wrong?"

"It's really interesting. I also want to see if they will cry and hug their coach's lap and say, coach, I don't want to program anymore!"

"Your reflex arc is quite slow..." Jiang Huanxi sighed and complained to both teammates.

Why is this world so perverted?

How about allocating all abilities to such a guy?

Even though this person is my husband, it’s really hard not to complain about him.

only.

The joys and sorrows of people are not the same.

The other two teams from Beijing University, as well as the team from Huaqing next door, and several other domestic teams that have relatively good information about Xu Qingshan, are holding team meetings.

How should we strive to win the gold medal this time?

became their core issue.

Because they all acquiesced that Xu Qingshan could get the first place.

After all, many of these teams have also participated in the Shanghai Station of the Asian Division.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

It is different from the fantasies of these little foreigners here.

They watched Xu Qingshan and the others win the championship with their own eyes.

That kind of gap cannot be filled by penalties or mistakes, not to mention that it is now generally recognized that Xu Qingshan is stronger than he was then.

At that time, he was Xu Qingshan, a super genius, and now he is Xu Qingshan, who is full of glory.

It's impossible to come up with any idea to compete with it.

In such a complicated and chaotic situation, the 2010 ACM-ICPC Global Finals officially started.

The blue and white venue is very lively.

However, this kind of excitement is not noisy, but the sound of answering questions and discussing in an intense and orderly manner.

Although it is a programming competition.

But at the beginning of the game, most teams did not start writing programs immediately.

They must carefully analyze each question and strive to kill it with one hit without making any mistakes.

The penalty time rules in the global finals are stricter than those in previous regional competitions.

Once a mistake is made, it is very likely that they will be like Lou Tiancheng and the others in previous years. Although they completed the same number of questions, they missed the final championship due to time penalties.

At the same time, the host in the live broadcast room was showing Principal Liu and Chairman William.

"Yes, the contestants will not be reckless and start answering questions directly when the competition starts, because those who can come to this competition are the strongest programming players of this generation in the world, and their level can be distinguished in one or two short questions. , any mistake or recklessness is fatal. For example, teams that start programming and answering questions as soon as they come up are generally either not strong enough and want to use templates to grab time, or the coaching staff has not done a good job in pre-match training."

Just as Chairman William was talking, the camera in the live broadcast room was aimed at the contestants and was directed to one team.

the host asked.

"Then this team seems to have started answering questions. The players seem to be answering questions very quickly. Does this mean that this team has lost hope of competing for the championship?"

William's face changed, his face turned green, he hesitated for a long time, and glanced at the host resentfully.

"What I just said is about the vast majority of situations, but everything has accidents. For some people, ordinary principles cannot be directly applied. For example, if their team is sleeping on the spot, I will not doubt them. Ability.”

Chairman William is talking about Xu Qingshan and the others. As the chairman of the programming competition, he is also an expert in the field of machine learning. Naturally, he knows young talents like Xu Qingshan.

If we say that the people competing in the arena at this time are the young geniuses who have been trained in the Novice Village and are ready to change careers.

In his eyes, Xu Qingshan was the young emperor who could dominate the world even after he was born.

Is this something he can evaluate?

He can't comment!

The camera focused on the name tags on Xu Qingshan's table.

The nameplate of "Are you here to compete for second place? Team" can be clearly seen in the live broadcast room.

Principal Liu, who was laughing and watching William's joke, twitched the corner of his mouth.

No wonder Mei Hong suddenly called to communicate with her. During the conversation, she repeatedly emphasized that now that her old classmate is the principal, she must learn to tolerate some of the personalities of today's young people.

So that’s what it is?

Principal Liu clenched his pants.

I don’t know if the leaders above are watching the live broadcast, and I don’t know what they think when they see Xu Qingshan and the others being so crazy when they watch the live broadcast. Anyway, he knows that Xu Qingshan must be a non-stick pan, so he might just take advantage of the situation and carry the pot on his own.

Damn Mei Hong, you’ve already settled this, right?

The live broadcast camera was focused on Xu Qingshan and his team, but Chairman William just slapped himself in the face at the speed of light and stopped talking.

Principal Liu was thinking about whether Xu Qingshan's mocking of the team name would have an impact on him, the principal of a traditional military-industrial school.

For a moment, the live broadcast room was so quiet that only the sound of breathing was left.

"Ding!"

Jiang Huanxi was seen leaving the table, and the camera immediately focused on the young girl moving in the unchanging arena.

Jiang Huanxi trotted all the way to the work group.

After a while.

In her hand, there was a golden balloon with a line of letters written on it, and a normal green balloon. On the big screen in front of the stadium, a team jumped out from a field full of teams with a score of 0 and jumped to the third place. One person.

[Are you here to compete for second place? Score: 1】

If you are the first to answer the question, someone will naturally notice it.

Especially the two balloons in Jiang Huanxi's hand were particularly conspicuous in the empty arena.

Almost everyone in the audience noticed the terrifying strength that Xu Qingshan and his team suddenly showed.

At this time, some stronger teams have begun to answer questions, but there are many more teams that are still in the discussion stage.

When Jiang Huanxi returned to his position with the balloon, the stadium was visibly quiet for a few seconds.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Qingshan, who was sitting in front of the computer with an evil smile like a super devil.

broken.

Let this pussy be installed hard.

In particular, the three little Asans in the two rows in front of Xu Qingshan and the others were even more fussy and their expressions changed drastically.

Of course, there must be people who have made it this far and are still unconvinced.

Even the domestic teams that know Xu Qingshan's identity and strength are not convinced and are trying their best to win the championship from this talented mathematician to prove themselves.

For example, the Shanghai Jiao Tong University team is the only one in China that has won the ACM-ICPC global championship in the past years. They are also the only team that has won two championships.

According to the evaluation of their teachers, this class is also strong enough to survive.

After seeing the numbers on the screen, the three young men from Shanghai Jiaotong University speeded up their collaboration and answering questions without any hesitation or pause.

But it turns out.

In the face of absolute strength, youthful ambition and enthusiasm are useless.

Time passes little by little.

[Are you here to compete for second place? 】The team name always hangs high in the first place.
