Chapter 6: Intelligence can crush all cunning!
Luo Yao paid no attention to the discussions in the live stream; his only interest was in Professor Xia Qing, whom he had never met before.
Although solving algebraic topology problems only takes a few sentences, Luo Yao knew that reaching a conclusion would involve an enormous amount of computation.
Algebraic topology involves the theory of abstract algebraic structures and topological spaces. Solvers need to make a leap from concrete problems to abstract concepts. Moreover, to solve algebraic topology problems, one must have a foundation in linear algebra, real analysis, set theory, etc. to understand the problems.
This is why Luo Yao chose algebraic topology as the exam question; algebraic topology can reveal a person's overall mathematical ability.
The teachers from Yenching University and Tsinghua University seemed to be a step behind, and the people from other schools were even slower, so Luo Yao stopped looking at the others.
"Professor Xia? What is your main area of research?"
"Intelligent computing architecture and system chips, application-specific integrated circuit design, integrated circuit reliability, etc." Professor Xia showed no impatience in the face of Luo Yao's questions, which made Luo Yao feel good about him.
The fact that the person was the first to solve the problem he presented shows that they are intelligent enough and did not show any impatience in the face of his questions, indicating that they are very patient.
Professor Xia's research direction is also somewhat to his liking.
Luo Yao calmly opened his system panel and began to examine the technology he had just acquired.
[Host: Luo Yao]
[Mathematics: LV4 (489/500)]
[Physics: LV4 (475/500)]
Chemistry: LV3 (372/500)
Computer Skills: LV4 (490/500)
[Biology: LV3 (301/500)]
Language: LV4 (420/500)
[Technology: Full suite of EDA technologies]
[Talent: Holmes-like IQ and EQ (fixed)]
[Points: 10 points (gifted by the system)]
If he wants to earn points, he must use the EDA technology rewarded by the system and gain the approval of others.
For a teenager who hasn't even been to university, to suddenly produce an EDA system out of thin air would be considered a joke by others.
The best way is to announce the existence of this EDA by identifying students in the relevant major.
This teacher, Ms. Xia, has a fairly relevant professional background. If I follow her and then produce EDA, other people will definitely be more accepting of it than they are now, and it will be much easier to commercialize it.
After weighing the pros and cons of the two approaches, Luo Yao knew which way to go next.
"Alright, as agreed initially, I will choose East China University of Science and Technology first. However, I have two questions I would like to ask in advance." In order to get in touch with Xia Qing, Luo Yao finally agreed to say a few more words.
Teacher Ouyang's back molars are a little sore, and he's feeling both happy and troubled.
The good news is that he has secured a very talented student for the school.
The frustrating thing is that this "genius" doesn't seem to have the same sense of awe or respect for teachers as other students; it's as if he simply doesn't possess that quality.
Upon hearing Luo Yao's words, Teacher Ouyang quickly asked, "What's your question, Luo?"
"First, after I enrolled in school, my parents and sister will still live in this small town, which is very far away from me. When will I be able to go home to visit them each year?"
Just as Professor Ouyang was about to blurt out, "Both winter and summer vacations are fine," he saw Professor Wu from Zhejiang University with a "sure-to-win" expression on his face.
Not right.
Why did that guy make that expression? Teacher Ouyang quickly went through Teacher Wu's every move in his mind.
The other party arrived at the Luo family's house around the same time as him. After entering the Luo family's house, Teacher Wu talked to Luo Yao about the benefits that the school could provide for Luo Yao.
The terms of his treatment seemed to mention arrangements for his parents and sister.
After recalling this incident, Teacher Ouyang suddenly realized what Luo Yao meant by asking him that question!
Teacher Ouyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "That was close."
Luo Yao made a point of asking in front of so many people because he wanted to compare which school offered better terms!
If the conditions she offers are not as good as those offered by other admissions officers, then Luo Yao will inevitably turn her attention to other schools.
For example, Yenching University and Tsinghua University, which were only one step behind them in the exam questions.
no.
Teacher Ouyang quickly dismissed his own thoughts. He suddenly realized that Luo Yao's main purpose wasn't to obtain information, but to get Ouyang to produce results.
Given Luo Yao's intelligence, he had already collected information on the benefits and perks of various schools, and now he wanted to discuss it in detail with Ouyang!
Teacher Ouyang then realized that Luo Yao hadn't been beating around the bush at all; he had just been overthinking things!
They didn't even consider other schools as potential options.
Luo Yao is asking the question now simply to give Ouyang a chance.
Let him refer to the welfare benefits of other schools.
Giving too little is definitely not acceptable.
Seriously, even eight hundred schemes can't compare to Luo Yao's intelligence; it truly can crush everything!
Teacher Ouyang discovered that Luo Yao held the reins from beginning to end.
Despite the admissions officers' enthusiastic descriptions of the benefits and their attempts to cultivate a relationship with Luo Yao, Luo Yao remained silent throughout.
Because Luo Yao clearly knows what he wants!
He believed that if he couldn't understand Luo Yao's meaning, the other party would definitely not say another word to him!
Standing in the corner, Teacher Wu couldn't help but sigh softly to the person next to her.
"This child is truly a prodigy. In just one sentence, he has already used three psychological strategies: information gathering and comparison, taking the initiative, and intentional guidance. He is a smart person who doesn't waste a single word."
"If you can't understand it, you really won't be able to communicate with the other person on the same wavelength."
"His family environment certainly wouldn't have taught him these things, so he learned everything on his own!"
Teacher Wu became more and more regretful as he spoke, lamenting how they hadn't attracted the attention of geniuses!
At the same time, after realizing what had happened, Teacher Ouyang quickly began to think of how to reply to Luo Yao.
The admissions director has indeed given him more authority this time, allowing him to do everything in his power to win over Luo Yao. Now is the time for him to make his own decisions!
"Don't worry, Luo. We'll take care of your parents' and sister's issues. Your parents run a restaurant, right? There are a few vacant shops near our school where they can continue running their restaurant."
"As for your sister, she can come to our school if she wants to. It's up to Luo to decide."
"In addition, as long as Luo comes to our school, he can sign a 3+2+3 undergraduate-master-doctoral program agreement, with tuition fees waived. After enrollment, the school will give him a reward of 500,000 yuan."
"You'll receive the highest level of scholarships and grants every year, and there are dedicated people to help you with the application process, so you don't need to waste your time on it."
"If you want to continue your studies abroad later, the school will also apply for government-funded study abroad grants for you, and all expenses during this period will be borne by the country and the school."
Teacher Ouyang's words heightened the atmosphere in the live stream.
"Did you hear that? Parents and my sister are all guaranteed job placements!"
"Geniuses really do get different treatment! Tears of envy are already streaming down my face!"
"Luo, the top student, actually thinks about his family! I'm so moved I could cry!"
"He just doesn't like to talk to stupid people, it doesn't mean he doesn't care about his family!"
"A person with high intelligence will definitely take good care of others if they want to, the only question is whether they are worthy of it!"
"A reward of 500,000 yuan is given as soon as you get in, not including scholarships and grants. So, it seems like Luo Yao is going to school to make money!"
"Holy crap! We spend money to go to school, but he earns it! At this moment, I'm even more enamored with Luo, the academic genius!"
Luo Yao seemed satisfied with Ouyang's arrangement. He didn't raise any objections but continued, "I have a second question..."
