1900: A physics genius wandering around Europe

Chapter 390 Mysterious Gift! The Secret of the Personal Special Award Revealed! Everyone is Shocked!
City of Science, inside the Science Museum.

There is only one hour left in the Physics Olympiad experimental competition.

All the contestants are carrying out the intensive finishing work.

Among the 80 contestants from various countries, none of them is completely clueless and at a loss as to what to do.

Everyone completed the selected experimental questions normally.

The difference lies in the details such as operational standardization and step logic.

It is unlikely to get a perfect score, but it is also unlikely to get a zero score.

If you want to widen the gap, you must have better hands-on ability than others.

However, we are all geniuses, so this situation is extremely rare.

Therefore, everyone's mentality is relatively normal, and it is far less thrilling than when doing theoretical questions.

Soon, an hour passed.

Ding!
The exam time is up.

At the recorder's signal, Wu Youxun stopped all actions in his hands.

All his information was collected by the recorder according to categories for the final marking and grading.

Watching the recorder checking carefully there, until this moment, Wu Youxun finally felt relieved in his heart.

The preparation started last year and the competition ended today.

Every day in between was spent in training.

He felt as if he had gone through a trial.

Whether in terms of the mastery of knowledge or the growth of mentality, there has been a complete transformation.

"call!"

"I have tried my best."

"The outcome will be left to fate."

After the recorder announced that they could leave, Wu Youxun left the experimental room.

At the same time, other contestants also filed out, each with a look of joy on their face.

At this point, everyone finally no longer has to bear the huge pressure.

As for whether your grades are good or bad, it is not something you can control.

Ye Qisun quickly walked to Wu Youxun and said excitedly:

"Brother Xun, how is it?"

Wu Youxun smiled and said, "It's quite standard."

Ye Qisun chuckled, indicating that it was stable.

For top talents like them, experimental questions are unlikely to create too much of a gap.

It is impossible that there is a direct difference of 10 points between knowing and not knowing like in the third theoretical question.

This is a huge gap.

"By the way, Brother Xun, I came out early. Someone just informed me that Secretary Wang is here."

"It is said that he is here to announce the rewards for this competition."

At this point, Ye Qisun said enviously, "You still remember the mysterious gift that Professor Li mentioned, right?"

"Oh, I'm really looking forward to it!"

"You're going to be famous now, Brother Xun. The individual gold medal belongs to you."

Although Wu Youxun's expression didn't change much, he was already cheering in his heart.

He felt that his victory this time was a foregone conclusion.

The mathematical calculations required for Young's double-slit interference experiment are merely complicated, but not particularly difficult.

He thought that he should have no problem getting more than 8 points on the experimental questions.

In this way, coupled with the absolute advantage of theoretical questions.

"Yeah, very stable."

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that there are old coins, where one has clearly solved the last question of the theoretical test, but still pretends that it does not exist.

Then he mingled with the crowd, causing Wu Youxun to relax his vigilance and not take the experimental questions seriously.

Therefore, no one can be absolutely sure until the last moment when the rankings are announced.

Soon, all 80 contestants present stood still.

Wang Zhengyang stood in front of many students.

Although he was a few years older than everyone else, he still felt a little guilty.

These students in front of me are still very young.

But each of them is the elite of their own country, and their future is destined to be smooth.

Especially the European contestants, all of whom are from world-renowned universities such as Cambridge University and Berlin University.

Wang Zhengyang himself only graduated from an ordinary university in China.

Compared with this, I still feel a little inferior.

But he soon adjusted his mood.

I am now the principal's personal secretary, which is not bad.

"Hello, classmates."

"Congratulations to everyone for successfully completing this Physics Olympiad."

"We have prepared a sumptuous dinner for you tonight, so you can relax."

Everyone was happy.

Relaxation after a big exam is the most comfortable state.

"Next, I'd like to announce the special prize for this competition."

"You should all know that the top three teams and individuals will receive gold, silver, and bronze medals respectively."

"But if you win the gold medal, you will get a mysterious gift from Professor Bruce."

"This mysterious gift is the special prize of the competition."

Wow!
Many contestants were very excited.

Although they can't get it, they can still enjoy it.

However, the European players are relatively calm.

They still have a sense of superiority in their hearts.

I think that no matter how mysterious it is, it is just an award.

It's either money, a place for a doctorate, or a good job.

After all, in addition to being a scientist, Professor Bruce is also a wealthy man.

But some contestants come from wealthy families, and some have high-ranking officials in their families.

Therefore, they, who have very high standards, are not really tempted.

For example, someone like Irene, whose mother is Madame Curie, what honors or rewards could impress her?

And she was confident that with her own abilities, she could be admitted to Professor Bruce's doctoral program.

Many Asian players, on the other hand, are full of expectations.

What if the great gift is becoming Professor Bruce’s doctorate?

Then make a lot of money!

Looking at everyone's different expressions, their thoughts were clearly revealed.

Wang Zhengyang also found it funny. This is what young people are like. Their thoughts are all written on their faces.

However, this innocence is indeed the most memorable memory.

He glanced around, then announced solemnly:

“The special award is a promise from Professor Bruce.”

"He will grant a request from the special prize winner."

“Whatever the request is, as long as it is within the professor’s ability, he will do his best to fulfill it.”

"Of course, requests that are obviously anti-human and anti-social are definitely not acceptable."

"You should be able to rest assured about Professor Bruce's character."

"Moreover, this commitment has no time limit."

"It can be raised at any point in a player's or professor's life."

“This is what the special award is all about.”

boom!
When Wang Zhengyang announced the awards, the crowd was completely shocked.

Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Oh my God, the special prize is like this!"

"That was a promise made by Professor Bruce."

"He is only 36 years old now. Who knows what level the professor will reach in the future?"

“If a professor founded a country in Africa someday, I wouldn’t be surprised.”

“And the award has no time limit, and as Professor Bruce gets stronger, the commitment becomes more important.”

"I hate it so much that I have no chance of winning the special prize."

"Otherwise, I will definitely save it for the day when Professor Bruce is at his peak."

"Compared to the gold and silver medals and special awards, they are so weak!"

"."

At this moment, even the European players were no longer calm.

Some of them are indeed rich, but compared with Professor Bruce, they are nothing.

As for power, with Professor Bruce's status, he can be a high official in any country. With a promise from the other party, it is not impossible for the contestants to surpass their fathers.

Generous!

So generous!

Irena's eyes were full of tears, and even she was drooling over this special prize.

That was Professor Bruce's promise, who could not love it?

Given the other party's status, his words can be said to be law.

There is absolutely no need to consider the risk of breaking your promise.

The most important thing is that you can raise it at will.

Irena had already begun to daydream.

Shinji Omura felt jealous.

He muttered quietly, "They must have seen that Wu Youxun was going to win the gold medal, so they threw out this award."

However, everyone was completely immersed in excitement.

No one heard his complaints.

Shinji Omura was extremely angry and at the same time very envious.

If he could get this promise, he would be able to walk around the Sakura Country with his head held high after he returns.

No need to worry about being scolded by Yoshio Nishina anymore.

Even the status of the two will be completely reversed.

He is on the same level as Nagaoka Hantaro.

Unfortunately, he no longer has this opportunity.

Wu Youxun's heart was in turmoil at this moment.

No matter how patient he was, he couldn't remain calm when he heard about this special award.

His mouth suddenly became dry and his whole body felt hot.

That was an expression of extreme excitement.

"My God, that's the principal's promise."

As a student of Huangpu University of Technology, Wu Youxun knew very well the president's status in the country.

Being admired by everyone is too little.

Among the 400 million people in China, who doesn't know the name of Li Qiwei?

How exciting it is to receive the promise of such a being.

Wu Youxun also knew that the president had unparalleled influence in science.

He also has countless connections in politics, education, business, etc.

It can be said that with this promise, Wu Youxun's future will be limitless.

And now, the most crucial question is whether he can defeat the rest and win the final gold medal.

Wu Youxun had never imagined that he was so eager for a gold medal as he is now.

"I must win!"

After Wang Zhengyang announced the special prize, the scene was completely boiling.

The contestants were all discussing excitedly and looked at Wu Youxun from time to time.

There is no way. From the current perspective, Wu Youxun’s probability of winning the individual gold medal is too high.

Attracting the envy of countless people.

Next to the players, the heads of the delegations were also shocked by the news.

It’s really a big deal!

Wilson said with emotion:

"Bruce always does."

"Whatever he does, it's bound to shock people in the end."

"He actually made a promise directly."

"Even I want this promise."

"If I get it, I will ask Bruce to give me a Nobel Prize-level result right away."

The heads of delegations from various countries smiled knowingly.

No one doubted that Professor Bruce could not do it.

The doctoral students he supervises have already produced three Nobel Prize-level results.

Even one of them has been awarded.

This gap in strength is simply despairing.

Einstein then said:

“This is a very good decision by Bruce.”

“This special award is more of a test than a reward.”

“The students who receive the special award are undoubtedly the best.”

"Such a person would certainly not abuse this promise."

"On the contrary, he might use this commitment to help himself advance further in the field of scientific research."

"I think this is Bruce's real intention."

Wilson shook his head and quipped:

"Einstein, you are definitely overthinking it."

"I bet Bruce simply couldn't think of a reward."

"So, he gave such a reward in order to save trouble."

"After all, this reward still sounds very impressive and shocking enough."

Wilson's words made everyone laugh.

For these big guys, Bruce's promise is valuable but difficult to use.

Because unless they were in desperate situation, given their status, they would never ask Bruce for help.

It's not just about face, it's also about self-esteem.

Wilson was just a joke.

Because he and Li Qiwei are of the same generation.

He certainly would not use Ridgway's promise to win a Nobel Prize.

That was an insult to himself.

He has to rely on his own strength.

But it’s different for these students.

They are all Li Qiwei's juniors, so naturally they don't have any psychological burden.

Use it however you want.

Don't worry about face issues.

Then, Wang Zhengyang announced the relevant matters about the results.

"It is expected that the results of this competition will be announced in half a month."

"In order to ensure fairness and impartiality, the heads of delegations from various countries will stay and be responsible for reviewing the results."

"So, fellow students, you will also stay here for half a month."

"The principal said that if you want to visit China, all expenses will be reimbursed."

"But time is limited, and for your safety, we hope that everyone will only travel in Guangzhou."

"If you need it, you can sign up with me and I will make all the arrangements."

Everyone cheered and rejoiced.

Especially the students from Europe, they wished they could stay here until the end of the war.

Compared with the current situation in the country, Borneo where they are now is simply a paradise.

As for China, it fascinates everyone.

This ancient and mysterious oriental country is slowly awakening at this moment.

Everyone can feel its vigorous vitality.

The appearance of Professor Bruce further strengthened this sense of mystery in everyone's mind.

After hearing this, Ye Qisun immediately patted his chest and made a promise.

He wants to give everyone a good banquet in Guangzhou.

As for safety issues, there is no need to worry.

Not to mention that Guangzhou has consulates of various European countries, they will be responsible for the safety of students from their own countries.

Even with so many students gathered together, no one had the courage to hurt anyone.

Otherwise it would be a big deal.

So they all went to Guangzhou.

Under the instruction of Li Qiwei, He Yujie took full responsibility and started the tense and intensive work of marking the papers together with the heads of delegations from various countries.

The assessment of this result was kept confidential throughout the process, and careful grouping was carried out to ensure fairness.

At this moment, the eyes of the world are on Borneo.

Reporters from major newspapers and magazines are also ready to go.

Who will win the first International Physics Olympiad?

Great attention!
