Chapter 55 How do you know Teacher Qiao?
Every word invented by the almighty netizens makes sense, such as boys must protect themselves well when going out. After all, if you are not careful, you will be taken advantage of by girls with bad intentions.

Even though they were just holding hands, Qiao Yu didn't dare to think about what he might do next time since he dared to hold hands today.

Fortunately, the days passed, and although the two children maintained the habit of eating breakfast together, taking a walk together, and then going home to study, Xia Keke did not do anything more excessive.

At most, they would hold hands when taking a walk every day, and they would not even avoid others.

As for Qiao Yu...

If a little girl doesn't care, he certainly doesn't care either.

When an adult saw them, he smiled ambiguously and accepted it calmly. They were just childhood sweethearts, so he was very calm.

And so, June 6th finally arrived.

According to the arrangement of Xiaolibaba's official website, today will be the day to announce the preliminary results.

Although Qiao Yu thought he would definitely make it to the finals after checking the answers, this matter was very important. After saying goodbye to Xia Keke and returning home, he turned on his computer immediately and found that he had received an email from the official website of the Xiaolibaba competition.

After seeing this email, Qiao Yu felt relieved.

Although the preliminary exam did not announce the score for each question, after looking at the reference answers, he estimated that his score would not be lower than 70 points.

After opening the email, the result was indeed true. His score was 71, ranking 286th in the preliminaries, which was a relatively high ranking, but not eye-catching.

Because then Qiao Yu opened the official website with great interest, and the complete list of finalists had been released.

This year, a total of 800 people entered the finals.

What’s interesting is that the person in front of him is from Yanbei University, and the person behind him is from Tsinghua University, so he is right in the middle.

Of course, it can't be considered a coincidence. Qiao Yu scanned the entire list and found that there were quite a lot of people from Yanbei and Huaqing who participated in this competition and entered the finals. There were more than a hundred people in total, and most of them were in the top four hundred.

There are also many foreign universities, with about sixty to seventy people entering the finals.

Most of the others come from other famous domestic universities.

What about Aviation University, Shuangdan University, Jiangnan University, Guadalupe University, and the Polytechnic University with names of various places...

There are also several XX middle schools hidden in the middle, which makes the name of Xingcheng Railway No. 1 Middle School look inconspicuous at all.

Even if we leave aside those universities, he would only rank fourth among all high school students.

This made Qiao Yu feel that his previous worries were in vain.

As a self-taught person, he still has a gap with those masters who have studied in a formal school. The only flaw is that except for Tieyi Middle School, no other middle school students in Xingcheng made the final list.

However, Qiao Yu is still confident about the final.

Of course, it’s not that in this math competition, the final questions are simpler than those in the preliminary rounds, but according to the competition rules, you can choose the track in the final.

Qiao Yu felt that it was difficult to do the preliminary round questions, mainly because the scope covered was very broad and everything was tested.

But the finals are different. They are divided into five tracks: Algebra and Number Theory, Geometry and Topology, Analysis and Equations, Combinatorics and Probability, and Applied and Computational Mathematics. After selecting a track, the questions will only cover the content of the track itself.

During this period, he focused on studying algebra and number theory. He not only studied the questions from Xiaolibaba's math competitions in previous years, but also found many related questions on the Internet to try. So far, he feels very good. Sure enough, as long as you have an interest, the things you thought were difficult before have become interesting points of interest. As long as you study patiently, you can even gain joy after solving the problems.

Yes, every time he solved a difficult problem, Qiao Yu would unconsciously hear the sound of gold coins arriving in his Alipay account, and feel full of happiness.

But now there is no need to think so much. Just wait until the beginning of July when we officially enter the finals and do our best to get good grades.

Even if he couldn't win the gold medal, Qiao Yu would be able to accept the silver medal. 1.5 US dollars, which is more than US dollars.

After Qiao Xi quit drinking, the money was almost enough to cover the expenses of the two of them for a year.

……

Tieyi Middle School, administration building.

Anyone who has been a principal knows that the principals portrayed in TV dramas are mostly nonsense.

In China, primary and secondary schools are special institutions, and are generally headed by the principal. Therefore, the principal's job is mainly to guide the school's development in accordance with the requirements of the superiors.

Therefore, when summer vacation is approaching, the presidents of all universities are usually very busy.

The school has to host the principal meeting, team meeting, admissions examination meeting, college entrance examination volunteer meeting, teacher annual assessment meeting...

But the meetings on campus are actually quite simple, and there are the most meetings outside of campus.

In the district, in the city...

Educational policies, student safety issues during the summer vacation, environmental improvement around the campus, etc.

You have to attend all department meetings and at least show your attitude.

These days are difficult, and being a principal isn’t easy either.

The principals of famous schools might be better, but the principals of ordinary schools are really hard to offend. Otherwise, there will be food safety inspections, fire safety inspections, and traffic safety inspections. Just thinking about it makes me feel overwhelmed...

Especially now that schools have a fixed staffing, but schools want to develop and always hope to bring in some good teachers. Schools don’t have teachers retiring every year to free up staffing, so they need to apply to the Personnel Bureau for additional staffing.

If you have a good relationship with your superiors, even if the establishment is tight, you may still get one or two people approved. But if you don't have a good relationship with them, in the current environment of strict restrictions on increase in establishment, if you get stuck casually, there will be no hope at all.

So Zhang Tiejun has been really busy recently, and he has been very busy.

For example, he had two meetings to attend today. In the morning, he gave a speech on the school's summer safety work arrangements. After lunch, he rushed to the Municipal Education Bureau with He Duchang, the vice principal in charge of teaching, to attend a work meeting on the summary of Xingcheng's college entrance examination this year and preparations for next year's college entrance examination.

The only good news was probably that he didn't need to go on stage to give a speech at the afternoon meeting, he could just go there and listen.

I discussed some work matters with the vice-president in the car, then closed my eyes and rested. The meeting started on time at 3pm.

The big boss on the stage was speaking, and the principal of Rongcheng Middle School, who was sitting next to him, suddenly touched his arm and asked softly, "Principal Zhang, is there a teacher named Qiao Yu in your school?"

"Huh?" Zhang Tiejun became alert when he heard the principal mention Qiao Yu's name. He turned to look at his colleague and asked calmly, "Principal Lu, how do you know Teacher Qiao?"
