Chapter 67 Chapter 67 Exclusive
The last day of the competition has finally arrived. Today is the closing ceremony of the mathematics competition, and everyone’s results will be announced and awards will be presented today.
Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei got up early in the morning. After breakfast, a group of students from Yancheng followed their leader, Pei Yuchen, to the Great Hall of Peking University. Today's closing ceremony and award ceremony were both held in the Great Hall of Peking University.
When Lin Yimu and his group arrived at the auditorium, many people were already seated in order. Pei Yuchen led everyone to the seat with the Yancheng sign on it and sat down.
"The results will be out today, and I'm a little nervous right now." Huang Minglei sat down, glanced at the other provincial students around him who also had serious faces, and whispered to Lin Yimu.
Hearing this, Lin Yimu turned to look at Huang Minglei. His expression was a little tense, but he still said, "I'm a little nervous too, but it's only a short while. We'll know the result soon."
Huang Minglei: "Even though it was like that, I was still very nervous before I knew the result, especially when the awards ceremony was getting closer and closer."
The two of them whispered a few words, but the other people sitting next to them had no intention of talking. They all looked at the big podium in the auditorium with serious expressions, waiting for the award ceremony and the announcement of the results.
As the two were whispering, the award ceremony began. A middle-aged man walked up to the podium in the auditorium and spoke some old-fashioned words. After that, an old professor from Kyoto University came up to the stage, opened the paper in his hand and began to announce everyone's results.
At this stage, the people sitting in the audience slowed down their nervous breathing and stared at the list in the old professor's hand on the podium without blinking.
The old professor looked at the eager crowd in the audience and smiled amiably. He said, "Seeing that everyone is looking forward to it, I won't keep you in suspense. Next, I will announce the final results of the high school group of the 2012 National Mathematics Competition."
"First place: Lin Yimu from Yancheng No. 1 High School, with a full score of 126; second place: Huang Minglei and Ke Chengyan, with 121 points; third place: Yuan Mingxu and Wang Haiming..."
The old professor slowly announced everyone's scores. When everyone in the audience heard their ranking, some were happy and some were sad. However, as for the only person who could get full marks, everyone's attitude was shocked and a bit like it was the right thing to do. After all, they had found out a lot about this monster from Yancheng No. 1 High School in the past few days.
But I still couldn’t help but sigh in my heart, they are both academic masters, so why is the other one so outstanding? Compared like this, they really look like those poor students in school.
With this result, except for a few students in the second and third place whose gap is not very big, those who are ranked at the bottom can only look up to them.
The students who ranked lower had simple thoughts. Although they sighed in their hearts, they knew that it was because they were not as skilled as others, and they would not have any bad intentions. Of course, this excepted those who were narrow-minded and could not stand others being better than themselves.
Sun Hongzhuo is such a person. At this moment, he was sitting in his seat with a grim look on his face, his hands tucked into his sleeves, clenched into fists.
Because his grades were not good, he was not even in the top ten, and the old professor announced that there were more than 60 names on the transcript, and only the top 60 students could enter the national team. This meant that he was no longer qualified to join the national training team.
Sun Hongzhuo sat in his seat with a grim expression and said nothing, staring blankly at the old professor who was still announcing the results on the stage. At this moment, he was thinking of Lin Yimu, the only one who got the first place.
Thinking that the other party had only studied for a few months to achieve his current achievements, while he had studied day and night but couldn't even get into the training team, he couldn't get rid of the resentment in his heart, but he couldn't do anything due to the circumstances.
Sun Hongzhuo's behavior was somewhat out of place with the students around him who were whispering or complaining about their poor performance in the exam, or even with red eyes. However, no one noticed him at this time. Everyone was busy comforting others or talking to Lin Yimu and others who were in the top three.
The team leaders from various provinces were envious of the team leader from Yancheng. This year, Yancheng was able to occupy four places in the competition, and these four places were among the top three. It can be imagined that in the upcoming national team training and even the places in the IMO competition, these four people will become strong competitors for their students.
Thinking of this, the team leaders from various provinces began to feel jealous and looked at Pei Yuchen with gloomy eyes. They didn't know what kind of luck Yancheng had this year to produce so many talents all of a sudden. Although Yancheng was not bad in the past, this was the first time that it took up the top three places like this year. They were so jealous.
Huang Minglei and others who were sitting with Lin Yimu were also very happy and excited at this time, especially when they heard that Lin Yimu was the only one with full marks. Although they felt a little regretful that they did not get first place, they were still very happy for him. After all, with this calculation, their Yancheng No. 1 High School had secured first place in the national grade and second place in the national grade, and even there were students from Yancheng in the top three. It was something to be happy about no matter how you looked at it.
"Lin Yimu, you are incredible. You actually got full marks!" Huang Minglei shook Lin Yimu excitedly. Seeing that he was still sitting in his seat without any expression, he asked in confusion: "No way, you got full marks, why don't you have any expression at all? Are you happy and stupid?"
