The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 86, making phone calls and borrowing a car, completing the entrance exam in half a day, and collecting papers (asking for monthly tickets)
"Huh? Liu Xiaoli is going back to Ice City?"

After chatting with Lou Jianguo for a while, Wang Duoyu started to open the letter. Zhu Ling's letter was nothing special. It was a few pages long, nearly two thousand words, and it was all about family matters and work. It was more about joy and less about complaints.

On the contrary, it was Liu Xiaoli who wrote to say that her grandmother's health seemed to have worsened and she had sent a telegram two days ago, so she had to go back to Bingcheng.

Her grandmother started to get sick at the end of the previous year, but her condition suddenly worsened in May of this year, so she came to Shuanghe County in May.

In just four months, her grandmother's condition worsened again, and she was afraid that this would be the last time she saw her grandmother.

Wang Duoyu did not write to her, but got up and went to the post office next to the school to make a phone call.

The post office provides services such as sending telegrams, making phone calls, express delivery, registered mail, and mailing letters. It is only a few steps away from Harbin Institute of Technology, so it is very close.

电话费用十分昂贵，现在的长途电话计费标准氛围十三级，第一级是25公里收费0.05元，2级25-50公里收费0.1元。

Each additional level will increase the fee by 1.2 cent. The distance from Bingcheng to Jiangcheng is more than kilometers, so the charging standard is the thirteenth level, which means yuan per minute.

The basic charge is 3 minutes, and one minute is added when you ask someone to call you.

Fortunately, Wang Duoyu quickly contacted Liu Xiaoli, who had already bought the tickets.

"Okay, I'll pick you up then and we'll meet and talk in detail."

"Well, the phone call is expensive, so I'll hang up first. Bye."

The charge is too high. It was just over four minutes, but they charged as if it was five minutes, so the total cost is six dollars.

Although Wang Duoyu has a decent ability to make money and is now worth over 6 yuan, he still feels bad that it costs yuan to make a phone call.

However, Wang Duoyu felt much better when he could hear her slightly distorted voice on the phone.

"Damn it, am I being a bit of a scumbag?"

After the phone call, Wang Duoyu began to reflect on himself, but such reflection quickly disappeared.

None of the Zhu Ling and Liu Xiaoli he met were easy to deal with.

According to the trajectory of her previous life, Zhu Ling was a woman who did not want to have children and wanted to be a DINK. Liu Xiaoli was also a strong woman who focused on her career, but after having children, she became a mother who was willing to give everything for her children.

All in all, Wang Duoyu is quite conflicted now and plans to take it one step at a time.

Then he called Lin Dehong again, wanting to borrow his car.

"Why do you want to borrow the car? Can you drive?"

"Boss, I need to pick someone up at the train station tomorrow. You can ask Brother Fang about driving. I've driven several times when I was in Beijing before, and Brother Fang always said I was very good."

"Okay then. I'll have Xiao Fang drive the car to the school tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, leader!"

Lin Dehong is a good leader. On the train back from Beijing, he repeatedly told Wang Duoyu not to be polite to him, so he really was not polite.

In fact, Lin Dehong was happier than Wang Duoyu to borrow the car. He was not afraid that Wang Duoyu would borrow the car, but was afraid that the other party would not want to trouble him.

No matter what, Lin Dehong will never suffer any loss by building a good relationship with Wang Duoyu. Otherwise, he would not have been able to get the third-class medal of honor last time.

Don't think the Third Class Medal of Merit is particularly embarrassing, but since the Plateau War, there has been no war in China for over a decade, and it's been difficult for anyone to get a medal of merit. Lin Dehong got a great deal by being able to receive the Third Class Medal of Merit so easily, almost for free.

The next day, Wang Duoyu took the placement test as usual. It only took him half an hour to finish the test paper and he handed it in early.

After leaving the examination room, he went to Liu Taoshun's office and said that he wanted to finish the exams for all subjects today.

"Okay, no problem. You can do the test in the office later. There are spare test papers anyway."

Liu Taoshun agreed very readily, and was not worried about Wang Duoyu leaking the test questions, because there was more than one copy of the test paper.

So, in one morning, he finished seven test papers, and there was also a test paper on Mao Zedong Thought, which took him longer.

Mao Zedong Thought is difficult but also simple. Wang Duoyu memorized the textbook directly, so it was not difficult for him to cope with the exam.

Unlike the college entrance examination, he doesn't need to get a score close to full marks, as long as it reaches above 90 points.

What's more, he got full marks in professional courses.

After he finished writing the last test paper, his results came out in less than three minutes.

Since the department head Wu Congqin personally graded the test papers, the scores were of course announced immediately.

There were eight subjects in total, and except for the General Theory of Mao Zedong Thought, which had two points deducted, all the others were full marks.

He scored full marks in the five professional courses, namely mathematical analysis, advanced algebra, linear algebra, differential geometry and introduction to analytic geometry of space, which is simply invincible.

After correcting the test papers, Wu Congxin sighed and suddenly asked:

"By the way, I've seen you appear in the library quite often these past few days. Are you writing a paper?"

"Well, I went to Beijing in August. Director Hua asked me to try to study prime numbers. I wasn't very interested in that, so I chose the Poincare conjecture, which has been quite popular in the past decade or so, as a breakthrough point. I wanted to study it, and that's why I applied to purchase foreign journals."

hiss!
Su Zhenghuai, Shao Zongjian, Yang Xiuhua and other teachers who had just walked in with the test papers were standing aside gossiping curiously, but they didn't expect to hear words that made them unbelievable, and they were all stunned.

Liu Taoshun held his breath and his eyes widened.

Wu Congxin's expression froze. After a long silence, he hesitantly asked, "The Director Hua you're talking about, is he the Hua Luogeng academician?"

He is the number one person in China's mathematics today and a true leading figure.

And such a leading figure actually recommended Wang Duoyu to try the prime number problem. Wu Congyin did not think it was just a simple prime number problem, but rather world-class mathematical problems such as the Riemann hypothesis and the Goldbach conjecture.

Although Wu Congqin had already praised Wang Duoyu's talent, he did not expect that in the eyes of a big shot like Hua Luogeng, the latter's talent could actually compete with those top mathematicians.

Is it too magical?

Of course, talent is just talent. Whether one can do it or not is just an unknown.

Seeing Wang Duoyu nod slightly, Wu Congxin said with a smile:

"If I had known you were researching this, I wouldn't have let you take the entrance exam today. Did you encounter any problems? To be honest, I haven't studied the Poincare conjecture either. However, I'm afraid that purchasing foreign journals from the past three years might not be enough."

"I'll make a phone call this afternoon and ask someone to collect relevant papers on the Poincare conjecture from the past decade or so. You can use them as a reference when they come back."
