Volume 1: Student Life Chapter 134 Before the Game
One day before the UPC starts.
Dean Yang of the School of Physics issued a notice that all participating teams should gather at the old location at 7pm.
Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi came out of the library, had dinner in the cafeteria, and then rushed to Room 103 of the Science Education Building.
This time, Fang Jieming was unusually active and did not come over again.
Chen Zhou saw this guy as he walked into the classroom.
However, although also saw Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi, he did not wave to his companions when he saw their own people like the other teams did.
He even didn't want Chen Zhou and the others to see him...
As Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi walked into the classroom, the originally noisy classroom suddenly became quiet for a moment.
Everyone's eyes unconsciously turned to the two of them, and then looked away.
Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi smiled at each other. Now, posts about them still account for a large part of the Yanda campus network.
With the UPC about to start, the two of them are being discussed more and more frequently.
Well, Fang Jieming’s name was also mentioned many times.
The only thing that made Fang Jieming feel at ease was that the post did not contain any photos of him, so he would not attract too much attention when walking on the Yanda campus.
Walking to the seat next to Fang Jieming, Chen Zhou sat down and took the initiative to greet him, "Senior, have you eaten?"
Fang Jieming glanced at Chen Zhou, nodded, and said nothing.
Yang Yiyi chuckled and said, "How can you greet someone like that?"
"Uh..." Chen Zhou asked, "How should I greet you then?"
Yang Yiyi said, "It should be simple and clear, senior, do you understand?"
"Oh, I see." Chen Zhou nodded and turned to talk to Fang Jieming again, but found that Fang Jieming had quietly sat two seats away.
Chen Zhou asked curiously, "Senior, why did you run so far?"
Fang Jieming didn't want to talk. His urge to kill Shen Jing was getting stronger and stronger...
At 7 o'clock in the evening, Dean Yang and three instructors came to the classroom together.
With the arrival of several people, the classroom became quiet.
Dean Yang looked up at the 72 students present and asked with a smile, "Students, are you nervous?"
Someone replied: "It's OK."
Some people also said: "I can sleep well at night."
This classmate's words successfully made everyone present laugh.
Dean Yang said, "This student has a good attitude and really needs a good sleep tonight. If that doesn't work, you can ask for leave tomorrow and sleep more during the day. Well, students from the School of Physics can ask for leave from me now. I'll approve your leave slip and hand it over to your counselor later."
Although the UPC competition is held , it usually lasts three days considering the differences in global time.
For the Chinese team, the competition starts at 6 pm on Friday and ends at 6 pm on Sunday, a total of 48 hours.
Logically speaking, after a whole day of mental exhaustion, by 6 p.m., people's mental state would be in a very poor state.
Therefore, it would be a good choice to take a day off tomorrow, have a good rest, recharge your energy and prepare for the competition .
Therefore, upon hearing what Dean Yang said, the students of the Physics Department suddenly became lively: "Dean Yang, are you serious?"
Dean Yang smiled and nodded: "How can this be false? After the competition officially starts tomorrow afternoon, it will be a 48-hour high-intensity battle. Although you can rest in the middle, I guess you really won't be able to sleep much."
Dean Yang took out a bunch of leave notes and waved them at everyone. "Everyone can come to me to get a leave note. Take it first, whether you are ready to ask for advice or not. If you get up late tomorrow, this will be a timely relief."
Dean Yang's humorous words made everyone laugh.
According to the team numbers, the students went up one by one to get their leave requests.
Some students from the School of Physics simply took a pen, wrote their notes on the podium, and asked Dean Yang to approve them on the spot.
Dean Yang would naturally not go back on his word, and he approved the leave application in just a few strokes.
Chen Zhou also received a note for leave, but of course he had no intention of using it.
Tomorrow, he only has a large geometry class in the morning and no classes in the afternoon, so he can adjust his state well.
He just thought that what Dean Yang said made sense, so he saved a copy of the leave application in case of emergency .
Moreover, Chen Zhou also believed that he would not have trouble sleeping at night, after all, Yang Yiyi was there.
Thinking of this, Chen Zhou glanced at Yang Yiyi beside him.
Yang Yiyi is filling out a leave application.
Chen Zhou was slightly stunned, and then asked: "Yiyi, are you going to take a leave tomorrow?"
Yang Yiyi nodded and continued writing her leave application.
When Chen Zhou wanted to come over to take a look, Yang Yiyi had already finished writing. Then she took the leave application to the podium to ask Dean Yang to approve it.
When Yang Yiyi came back, she saw Chen Zhou's puzzled expression and couldn't help but smile and explained, "It's the Ma Yuan class tomorrow afternoon. Don't worry, I will continue to urge you to go to bed early at night."
On the podium, Dean Yang had already approved all the leave notes, and then gave his seat to three instructors.
The three people took turns to review the rules and precautions during the competition.
Then emphasize that you must follow the instructor's arrangements, they are the supervisors of the rules, and never communicate with outsiders.
In addition, the paper must be written in the format required by the competition.
List the group number assigned to you at the top of each page, but do not include the student's name, school, or any other identifying information.
The first page of the paper should only include the group number, the selected question A or B, the title of the paper, and an abstract of no more than 300 words.
Also, the paper must be sent in time. If it exceeds 48 hours and the paper is not sent before the end of the competition, it will be regarded as automatically giving up the medal ranking.
Regarding this note, Mananton also joked: "If you are really immersed in it and don't pay attention to the time, and you don't send the paper for more than 48 hours, then I suggest you don't be discouraged or anxious, just finish it. After all, if you finish it and send it, you can also get a title, like an accomplished competitor."
After explaining the rules and precautions, the three instructors talked about some issues related to the competition.
The three people gave some very practical suggestions from their different perspectives.
Finally, it was Dean Yang who concluded: "Students, I wish you all the best in the competition tomorrow. In addition, you still need to adjust your sleep state at night. Don't think that since I approved your leave, you can sleep all day tomorrow and don't sleep if you can't sleep at night. What if you can't get up tomorrow and oversleep?"
A classmate said: "It's just right for the weekend, so I can sleep for two more days !"
Dean Yang was slightly stunned, then pointed at the student with a smile, and said, "Okay, go back and have a good rest!"
