Chapter 257 A professor from Imperial University personally intervenes: You think you're worthy? [4 updates]
Teng Yunmeng became even more nervous.
This question is very difficult. She has only just finished reading it and has just come up with an idea, but she hasn't quite figured it out yet.
If Ying Zijing is called up like this, will she be able to solve the problem?
Teacher Meng handed over the marker: "Don't write the answer directly, remember to explain as you write."
As soon as the live stream started, the number of comments began to increase sporadically.
Is this the art student?
[This face is absolutely stunning! She could easily enter the entertainment industry and would easily beat all the top stars.]
I've finally met this art student. I want to see if she really has the skills, and what makes her qualified for the ISC international competition.
Xiu Yan tossed her hair and looked at the blackboard.
In her opinion, Ying Zijin was at most on the same level as her, or even possibly inferior.
She also wanted to see if Ying Zijing could do it.
Beside Xiu Yan, a student chuckled, "Without Teng Yunmeng and Feng Yue's help, how is she going to solve this problem?"
If you can't solve this problem, you don't deserve to participate in the international finals at all.
"This problem is very simple." Ying Zijing held a marker, her voice unhurried. "First, we'll draw an auxiliary line here, and then use this formula..."
She spoke and wrote at the same time.
It wasn't fast, but the thought process was very clear.
Gradually, the other students' expressions became serious.
Teng Yunmeng's mouth dropped open.
Ying Zijing's problem-solving approach was completely different from hers, saving at least 6 steps.
In competitions, time is crucial; saving a few steps allows you to solve more problems.
As Teacher Meng looked at the lines of solutions, her face stung as if she had been slapped.
She got this problem from Imperial University, and she did it, but she never expected that it could be solved in this way.
Could a high school student be more knowledgeable than her?
Just then, Ying Zijing finished writing the last number: "I'm done."
Teacher Meng's expression froze, and she felt inexplicably embarrassed, unable to look the girl in the eye: "Yes, yes."
Ying Zijing wiped her hands and returned to her seat.
The photographer knew exactly what a highlight was, so he zoomed in and gave her a close-up.
The image shows the girl's long eyelashes and porcelain-white skin so delicate that even the pores are invisible.
A truly stunning beauty overload.
The live chat exploded with comments.
Holy crap, this face is breathtaking, I'm dying inside!
[After checking, I found that this problem is an adaptation of a problem from last year's international mathematics competition, but it's even more difficult.]
Wow, art students are this amazing! They can draw and do math, they're all-rounders!
[Alright, alright, didn't you see Teng Yunmeng whispering to her earlier? I think she just told her the solution steps, or it was just for the sake of the show. Do you really expect an art student to be able to solve an international math competition problem?]
[You're just jealous, aren't you? You're just jealous that she's prettier and smarter than you.]
Xiu Yan's smile gradually faded, and his expression finally became serious.
She glanced down at her phone.
The screen displays the WeChat chat interface.
【Young Miss, the Ying Zijing you asked me to investigate is from Qingzhi Middle School. She's currently a senior in Class 19 and is good friends with Miss Xiu Yu. The two have a very good relationship.】
[Because of her, Miss Xiuyu doesn't frequent nightclubs much anymore and goes to school every day.]
She can indeed write and draw, but she can't compare to you, Miss.
When Xiu Yan saw the name "Xiu Yu", her eyes flickered and gradually turned cold.
She turned her head to look at the girl, and a plan formed in her mind.
After deleting the chat history, Xiu Yan sent a message to her agent.
[Brother Chen, please tell my fans that I'm going live tonight.]
**
The live stream only lasted two hours; it was mainly to kick off the promotion.
For the next month, the photographer will follow the crew and film them, then send the footage to the main television station for editing.
After training ended, Teng Yunmeng screamed and hugged Ying Zijing: "Zijing, you're amazing! What were you thinking?"
"I didn't think about it." Ying Zijing pondered for a moment. "I just glanced at it."
Teng Yunmeng: "..."
Feng Yue: "..."
They suddenly realized a major problem.
Is Ying Zijing, the student they're determined to mentor, actually a hidden academic genius?!
Looking at the girl's retreating figure, Teng Yunmeng murmured, "Feng Yue, we've latched onto a powerful figure."
Feng Yue pinched himself hard and exhaled, "Thank goodness, it's not a dream."
**
Outside the large classroom.
Teacher Meng hasn't left yet.
When she saw the girl come out, she called out coldly, "Ying Zijin".
Ying Zijing paused for a moment, but did not stop.
"Don't be complacent just because you solved one problem." Teacher Meng looked annoyed and said coldly, "ISC is a knowledge competition in various fields. Your performance is so unstable. You need to train harder in the future and not drag Teng Yunmeng and Feng Yue down."
Ying Zijin then turned her head.
Before she could speak, a clear voice came from the other side.
"What did I just hear?" The voice belonged to Zuo Li, who looked at Teacher Meng. "Teacher Meng, you seem to be quite dissatisfied with Ying Zijin."
Teacher Meng's expression changed, and she looked quite embarrassed: "Professor Zuo Li."
She didn't expect that Zuo Li would overhear her words.
"Let me put it this way," Zuo Li smiled sarcastically, "You can't get a professorship at Imperial University, but Ying Zijing can, though she doesn't care."
"What right do you have to be dissatisfied with her? You don't even deserve it."
Zuo Li is a typical straight-laced STEM guy who never argues with people.
But when they get angry, they can make people cry.
Teacher Meng is almost forty years old, and even she can't bear to hear such words.
Her face paled slightly: "Professor Zuo Li, what are you talking about?"
How can a high school student receive a professorship offer from a university in Beijing?
Nobody would believe me if I told them.
"I'm not joking." Zuo Li ignored her. "If you don't believe me, come to my office now. The letter of appointment is still in my drawer. Are you coming or not?"
"No, thank you." Teacher Meng took a few steps back and walked away quickly.
"What a disgrace." Zuo Li snorted coldly, then turned her head, her expression very serious. "Ying, the professors in our department are planning to order your hair growth shampoo. Do you think we could get another discount?"
"..."
**
There were no training sessions in the evening; the students either studied or rested.
Xiu Yan sat in the living room of her apartment, opened her laptop, and started a live stream.
She came to the training not entirely for the ISC International Finals, but also to increase her popularity.
Other celebrities don't dare to cultivate a "top student" persona, but she can; she has the credentials to do so.
"Oh, right, let me introduce my roommate to everyone." Xiu Yan picked up her laptop, stood up, and went to knock on Teng Yunmeng's door.
The door was opened quickly.
On the sofa inside, besides Teng Yunmeng, there was also Ying Zijin.
Teng Yunmeng was not very welcoming to Xiu Yan, but she had sharp eyes and saw that Xiu Yan was doing a live broadcast, so she could only suppress her anger and ask, "Xiu Yan, is there something you need?"
"I was thinking of giving my fans a little treat." Xiu Yan walked in generously. "Ying Zijin is here too, so I won't have to go to your place later."
She then said to the camera, "This is the beautiful roommate I told you about. Look, isn't she even prettier than me?"
The live stream chat was filled with nothing but praise.
No, no, Yan Bao is the prettiest!
No one is as beautiful as our Yan Bao.
Ying Zijing didn't even turn her head; she was watching TV.
Xiu Yan pointed the camera at her, and her indifferent attitude angered Xiu Yan's fans.
Is this ordinary person really that arrogant? She doesn't even acknowledge Yan Bao, huh? So what?
"By the way, I heard that you're an art student, Zijing, and your calligraphy is also very good." Xiuyan smiled slightly. "Coincidentally, I'm also accomplished in this area. Let's have a friendly competition."
Teng Yunmeng was holding her breath, but she was about to lose it.
However, her fans are too ruthless. If she were to suddenly erupt like this, she might get splashed with hot water on the street.
Ying Zijing was still watching a melodramatic prime-time drama. Upon hearing this, she casually replied, "So-so."
“How could it be mediocre?” Xiu Yan shook her head. “You’re an art student, so your calligraphy must be pretty good. I brought a brush and some Xuan paper, you can use them.”
Ying Zijing turned her head and slowly said the rest of her sentence: "So-so, better than you."
Xiu Yan paused for a moment with a smile.
The fans in the live stream were even angrier.
[Yan Bao is a disciple of the vice president of the China Calligraphy Artists Association. Can someone write better than Yan Bao?]
【Yan Bao, let her write. Let's see what kind of characters she can write.】
I've written over 10,000 words in this fourth update. Now, please vote with monthly tickets!
