In 1978, I was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 23 Entrance Exam, some people cried, some people fainted
"Harbin Institute of Technology is worthy of being the first of the seven national defense universities! How can you survive if you don't even prepare for the entrance exam!"

Looking at the test paper, Xie Wei took a breath of cold air.

I suppressed the urge to swear and cursed silently in my heart.

No wonder Wang Zheng asked himself to review well before.

Not only did she deliver meals every day, she also didn't let Xie Wei wash the lunch boxes, just to save him time.

Du Guowang and Liang Hongling did not disturb Xie Wei when they returned home, as if they had never had any conflict over what major Xie Wei studied.

The test paper in front of me, emitting ink, revealed everything.

There is not a single Chinese character on the entire test paper, and the questions are introduced in both English and Russian!

This year, English in the college entrance examination was not included in the admission score, and only some majors used it as a reference.

Harbin Institute of Technology is even more excessive, with questions not only in English but also in Russian.

Although the foreign language questions were simple, not even as difficult as the English test in the high school entrance examination during Xie Wei's time, the entire examination room was filled with wailing.

"Bang~bang~bang~"

Tian Yuan, who was standing at the podium distributing draft papers, patted the table and shouted seriously to the noisy examination room: "Quiet! Pay attention to the examination room discipline."

The examination room fell silent.

"Students, this entrance examination is not to embarrass you. It is to select students for the newly opened undergraduate and master's degree programs, and the basic requirements are relatively high. Please try your best to complete the test paper according to your ability. The test time ends at 6 pm. Students who have not submitted their papers at noon will have someone bring you lunch. In addition, the results of this test will not be included in the file, and will not affect subsequent studies and work assignments..."

Tian Yuan explained it this way. The freshmen, whose average age is in their 20s, simply don't believe that the exam will have no impact on their future.

Fortunately, although I couldn’t understand most of English and Russian, I could generally understand the questions through numbers, formulas and graphs. Since they were all elites who passed the college entrance examination, I could understand them.

"If you don't have enough draft paper, raise your hands and I'll send it to you. Everyone who has passed the college entrance examination is considered a quasi-state cadre. Please abide by the examination room rules."

After Tian Yuan emphasized the examination room discipline again, he sat on the podium and observed the reactions of the people below.

Some have faces full of despair.

Some are scratching their heads.

Biting the pen with a blank look on his face...

After Xie Wei glanced at the reactions of his classmates in the same examination room, he thought about Wang Zheng's instructions and the reactions of Du Guowang and his wife, and wondered if it was because Du Guowang had asked for 20 yuan in funding for him, which made the others unhappy, so Wang Zheng kept emphasizing that he should do well in the exam.

He never thought about why the exam was so difficult.

As students who have passed the national college entrance examination and whose scores must be among the highest in the province to be admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology, Xie Wei does not think that he is necessarily better than other students.

Geniuses always exist.

The questions were difficult. Even though Xie Wei had done countless "Five Years of College Entrance Examination and Three Years of Simulations" before, accompanied his two children in special exercises when they participated in competitions, and even studied it in college, Xie Wei still felt that these questions gave him a headache.

There are a total of six questions in the entire test paper.

After taking a quick look at the questions, Xie Wei wanted to curse the person who set the questions in his heart for being a scoundrel.

Thinking that the questions might be asked by Liang Hongling and Liang Hongbin, he sighed silently and did the questions quietly.

The title is translated, but there is not much content.

first question:
(1), 1+1= ()
(2) Please prove (write a brief proof process or proof method).

(3) If 1+1≠(), what do you think is the correct answer? Why? Please give your reasons.

For the first question, anyone with a kindergarten diploma knows the answer.

But the second question is going to drive people crazy.

Goldbach's conjecture!

By the time of Xie Wei decades later, this had not been proven.

The closest one was the proof of 1966+1 by the domestic mathematics master Chen in 2.

Xie Wei had little contact with Liang Hongling, and based on his understanding of her, it was impossible for her to really let her students prove the Goldbach conjecture.

The purpose of Liang Hongling asking this question should be to test students' knowledge and thinking.

For the third question, Xie Wei really knows how to do it.

From a physical perspective, 1+1=3 can be explained through spatial dimensions, physical constants, and even the proof proposed by the genius mathematician Lobachevsky that "parallel lines will eventually intersect".

Tian Yuan, who was sitting on the podium, took the entire scene in the examination room into his eyes: except for a few people who were writing and drawing on the draft paper, most of them frowned, scratched their ears and cheeks, and looked around constantly after finishing the easy questions in each major test.

Only Xie Wei, who was sitting at the back, frowned when he read the questions, and then kept writing.

There was almost no pause.

Half an hour later, most of the answer pages were still blank, and Xie Wei raised his hand.

"Teacher, please give me some draft paper."

Tian Yuan came over and saw that the five draft papers distributed earlier were densely filled with formulas, most of which he could not understand.

In just over half an hour, Xie Wei was already working on the third big question.

He is indeed a genius that many department heads are desperately trying to get! Tian Yuan knew very well that if it weren't for Xie Wei, even if Harbin Institute of Technology had an entrance exam, it wouldn't be as difficult as it is now.

"Is this enough?"

Tian Yuan directly gave Xie Wei a notebook.

His attitude towards Xie Wei was very good.

After all, the Computer Science Department also hopes to persuade Xie Wei to choose to pursue further studies and development in the computer field.

Why are so many department heads in the school vying for Xie Wei?

project!

Only with projects can we have funding and achieve results, make greater contributions to the country, and go further on the professional path.

To carry out a project, you must have a talented technical leader.

A genius like Xie Wei with a solid foundation can quickly be trained to become a technical leader.

"Fuck, what a beast! I'm only halfway done! I haven't even finished the first question, the Goldbach conjecture... The latter part involves Einstein's physical dimension theory..."

"Is this still a human? The third question, about the motion of celestial bodies, not only requires curvature, but also requires the derivative of the curve, the expansion of Taylor's formula, and high-order infinitesimals and Pascal's triangle. Oh my god!"

The two people in front of Xie Wei turned around and saw that he was already working on the third question. They were shocked.

"The first question is the Goldbach conjecture? What is the Goldbach conjecture?"

"I know Taylor's formula, but how do I expand it?"

"What is a higher-order infinitesimal? How do you use it?"

"What is Pascal's triangle?"

The entire examination room suddenly became chaotic as the two guys next to Xie Wei exclaimed.

Most students have never even heard of many professional terms!

"Be quiet! Pay attention to the exam rules. If you continue talking, you will be treated as cheating!"

Tian Yuan almost exploded, saying that others were not human beings. The two guys who spoke up were simply not human beings.

The solution to the problem has been revealed, which is obviously cheating.

However, seeing that most people looked confused, Tian Yuan did not kick the two out after all.

Everyone was silent, not daring to say a word.

You can get zero points in the exam, but you cannot have any problems with your character.

It’s not easy to get into a university.

The two people who spoke exchanged glances, looked at Xie Wei with complicated expressions, and saw that the invigilator Tian Yuan was glaring at them. They did not dare to act rashly and continued to answer the questions silently.

Both of them found solutions to the problems they were indecisive about through the ideas provided by the other.

"That should be enough."

Xie Wei understood that the two guys in front were reminding other students, and since Tian Yuan didn't stop them, it meant there was no problem.

He took the notebook with a smile on his face. "Find the orthogonal decomposition of the trajectory of celestial bodies, and then use arc differential calculations, and use differential and difference equations to build a model of the cell growth process. It won't take too much draft paper..."

"Hurry up and do the questions~"

Tian Yuan sighed silently and did not stop Xie Wei from reminding others.

In just a few sentences, a lot of difficult professional knowledge was involved, and most people in the examination room could not understand it.

Even with Xie Wei's reminder, it still won't work unless you have a good foundation and a wide range of knowledge.

Didn’t you see that the two guys who had reminded others in front of them simply crossed out the answers they had already written after hearing what Xie Wei said?

"Wow~ I've never heard of this before..."

A girl heard this and burst into tears.

"Taylor's formula! Arc differentials! I remember seeing it before, but why can't I remember it now..."

Not far in front of Xie Wei, a thin boy heard the reminder and racked his brains to recall.

I can't remember at all.

The more I couldn't remember, the more anxious I became, until I suddenly felt dizzy and sweat dripped down my forehead. I suddenly lost all strength and slid off the stool to the ground.

"Bang~"

"Someone fainted!"

"Hurry up and save them..."

The classroom was suddenly in chaos.
