Chapter 57: Free Class
teacher?
Lu Xiao nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then the title of honorary professor can also be worthy of this title."
Eager to catch that glimmer of inspiration, Wu Tong quickly returned to her seat and began to study Professor Zellberg's paper published in the Annals of Mathematics in 1995. This was the tool that Zellberg wanted to leave for the world to solve the Goldbach conjecture.
At this moment, it turned into Wu Tong's weapon that slashed towards the twin prime conjecture. Sparks of thought collided and inspiration in his mind extended.
Wu Tong pulled the draft paper under her hands, turned her inspiration into a formula with great mathematical beauty, and wrote it down. Everything in the outside world had already drifted away from her. Soon, a piece of filled draft paper was moved to a corner of the table where it would not be in the way. Wu Tong continued her deduction without stopping.
Lu Xiao glanced at Wu Tong who was concentrating on his research, and a smile appeared in his eyes. What a nice kid, isn't he!
Seeing such a promising talent, he was tempted. If the other party agreed, there would be unexpected gains in taking him as a student.
The burst of inspiration allowed Wu Tong to take a solid step forward in the twin prime conjecture. Although she still has to solve the problem completely, she has already vaguely felt the direction to the right path. She only needs to slowly deduce step by step to build the bridge to solve the problem.
On the 20th day of the first lunar month, Peking University students who had gone home for the New Year holiday returned home like swallows, and the Peking University campus began to become lively. Whether enjoying the tranquility alone or the excitement, Wu Tong asked Professor Li for the class schedule, maintained her pace, continued her studies and research, and occasionally attended the classes that interested her.
On the morning of March 14th, the first selection and training session of the 2010 Chinese Mathematics National Training Team opened at Peking University. Mathematical elites from various provinces and cities gathered at Peking University.
In addition to the top 30 CMOs, there are also several other elites selected from the election, a total of 60 training team members.
In the next 15 days of competition, 15 places for this round of promotion will be competed for. 45 students will be eliminated in the first round of this selection.
In addition to these 60 real training team members, there are 34 auditors. Some of these auditors are good seedlings selected from junior high school competitions, and some are outstanding students in the first and second grades of high school who won the second prize or above in this CMO. This training camp is divided into three classes, with six lectures and four rounds of exams. Each class is equipped with a class teacher and adopts a fully closed management.
The leader of this training team happened to be Li Yishen, who did not avoid the school's invitation because of Wu Tong. His partners included one of his colleagues and four teachers from other universities.
Accommodation and meals will be arranged uniformly. The list of students who will enter the next round of training will be announced at the closing ceremony based on the final comprehensive scores. Professor Li and another teacher Cheng from Beijing University are in charge of Wu Tong's class. This class is basically composed of students who have participated in the CMO competition.
Considering that Wu Tong had already been studying at Peking University for many days and would have to continue studying and living after the selection training, Professor Li did not let Wu Tong move again.
He said that it was up to Wu Tong whether to attend the class or not, as long as he took the selection exam on time and went through the process with the results. The content of the training team was not of much value to Wu Tong, so there was no need to waste Wu Tong's time for in-depth study.
Based on what he knew about Wu Tong's learning progress, the so-called selection competition was nothing but a drop in the bucket for her.
She could easily answer the CMO exam questions for graduate students. With Wu Tong's learning ability and the learning resources of Peking University, she should have no problem going to the next level. IMO was not a big challenge for Wu Tong.
Barring any unexpected events, Wu Tong will have no problem winning the gold medal at this year's IMO.
Without having to follow the training team's schedule, Wu Tong's time is as free as ever.
She attended a class at the Department of Physics today. While delving deeply into mathematics, she needed to change her mind occasionally, so she interspersed it with the study of university physics.
After the start of the school year at Kyoto University, she had another convenience. She could find suitable classes to attend on a freelance basis according to her own studies. Kyoto University did not exclude students who wanted to attend classes on a freelance basis. She had freedom in arranging her schedule and could basically attend all the classes she was interested in.
After all, he was attending the class for free, so Wu Tong didn't sit at the front desk openly. He usually sat at the back of the classroom.
Today, the teacher on the stage was talking about material mechanics. She had seen the teacher's introduction. This was Professor Mu, who was well-known in the Physics Department of Peking University and even in the physics community of the whole country. He should be just around 50 years old, in the prime of his life, and could be said to be the backbone of the high-energy physics department of Peking University. For him to teach such a basic subject as material mechanics in his sophomore year was really an overkill.
Professor Mu’s teaching style is typical of university professors. His lecture speed is as fast as a machine gun, and from time to time he also jumps into a series of knowledge points. After all, in the eyes of these bigwigs, these contents are really the basics that anyone can understand at a glance.
This resulted in only a small number of students being able to keep up with the teacher's lectures, while most students felt carsick. Wu Tong had just finished studying theoretical mechanics, and was familiar with many of the rules. However, when the laws of theoretical mechanics were mixed and applied, many things and foundations began to seem confusing, requiring a strong understanding ability.
The ability to understand is something Wu Tong has in abundance. She listened carefully, learned with great interest, nodded from time to time with understanding, and put her understanding into the teacher's explanation. Guidance from a famous teacher is something that many people only dream of!
Professor Mu Xuewu was sitting on the podium and had a clear view of what was happening below the stage. These students, who had just learned basic physics and were new to material physics, mostly looked confused.
However, he has already covered the main points that he should have covered. If you don't understand the basics in class, you can go back and study harder. Learning is the students' own business. University is not the high school before, where teachers have to break things into pieces and chew them into small pieces and feed them to them.
In the midst of all the confusion, Wu Tong in the back row had a look of recognition and understanding on his face, as if he had gained something. He would lower his head from time to time and write or draw, which was like a bright light, especially obvious.
Did he understand everything? That's rare. It's not that the students in the classroom couldn't keep up with his lectures, but most of them only understood half of it. Did he really understand or was he just pretending? The child looked childish and young. I don't think I've seen this student before?
"Who is the student at the end of the line? Yes, it's you, little classmate!"
When her name was called, Wu Tong didn't react yet, thinking it was someone else. She had missed many classes, and the teacher would rarely call names from the back row. So, when she was called, Wu Tong thought it was someone else, until she looked into the teacher's eyes and confirmed it was her, she stood up a little overwhelmed.
