Chapter 175 Freshman Life Is Different From Imagination
The classmates have gotten to know each other well, and after selecting the class committee, the next thing they have to face is the brutal military training conducted in a high temperature of 39 degrees.
"I'm a little panicked... I'm really afraid of heat. Do you think I won't have to train if I faint?" In the dormitory, Li Boxin, who had just changed into his military uniform, looked a little uneasy.
"Promise! If you fainted during military training, then what kind of scientific research will you do in the future?" Chen Zhian on the side expressed disdain.
"Haha, if you all know yourself and the enemy, stop pretending. You can't run as fast as me." Li Boxin, who was ridiculed, immediately exposed Chen Zhian's shortcomings.
And just when Chen Zhian was about to say something, his eyes suddenly widened. He looked at the thing in Wu Bin's hand and asked, "Wu Shen... is this what you have?"
"Oh, the seventh dimension." Wu Bin said and handed the square box of sanitary napkins in front of Chen Zhian.
"Damn it...it's true!" Chen Zhian exclaimed and found that Li Yan had also brought out a pack of Sophie.
"What's going on...are you two Hua Mulan?" Chen Zhian almost collapsed, thinking that he had encountered the plot of some third-rate novel.
"Huh? Haven't you been attacked by Amway Military Heart Artifact in the group?" Wu Bin asked.
"Military training artifact?" Chen Zhian shook his head and pointed at the seven-dimensional space in Wu Bin's hand, "That's it? Where...is it attached?"
"They can be used as insoles, do you want them?" Li Yan looked at Chen Zhian.
"No, no, I'm a very rough person." Chen Zhian waved his hands quickly, of course he was still a little bit reluctant to the aunt's scarf.
Seeing that Chen Zhian didn't want it, Li Yan certainly didn't force it. He picked up the scissors and cut off the wings on both sides of the bathroom, then stuffed them into his shoes.
Li Boxin's expression was actually a bit eager to give it a try, but in the end he decided to side with Chen Zhian.
…
night.
"Boss! Give me a piece too! I'll buy it no matter how much it costs!"
When he said this, Chen Zhian almost knelt down in front of Wu Bin.
The soles of the military rubber shoes issued by the school are too hard. Especially when standing in a military posture, all the strength of the whole body is on the soles of the feet, as if stepping on the ground, let alone the squatting posture, which is completely the 21st world. Top ten tortures!
Wu Bin laughed for a while and asked him: "What size are your feet?"
"43."
"Oh, then mine may not be suitable for you. It would be better for you to buy the 284mm one. I remember it seems to be the Husuba night-use type."
"What about the 41-year-old?" Li Boxin also asked quickly.
Who knows how he managed to survive today? Withstanding the 39-degree high temperature was already a great torture for him. He didn't expect to have to endure the burning pain in the soles of his feet. It can be said that he was completely exhausted when eating in the evening. state.
"41, you can use the Li Yan one."
"Oh, let's go buy it now!" Chen Zhian said and was about to run out the door, but was held back by Wu Bin.
"Is there anything you want to give me?" Chen Zhian turned around and asked.
"Oh, no, I remind you not to buy the ultra-thin ones, otherwise your feet won't feel it at all. Buy the soft ones, which are very soft and sweat-absorbent."
"Okay, okay, thank you Wu Shen!" Chen Zhian said and ran out with Li Boxin.
At this time, Li Yan said: "Why don't you ask in the group who doesn't know? When I was eating today, I saw that many people were in pain."
"That makes sense."
On the first day of the class meeting, they established a QQ group, and Wu Bin, as the class leader, naturally became the group leader.
So Wu Bin opened the class QQ group x-on:and checked everyone, and began to "handle" this, which was the first practical thing he did after becoming the squad leader.
"Didi didi."
Hearing the notification sound coming from the earphones, Lin Ziqi, who had just finished taking a shower, opened the group and saw the "Military Training Artifact" posted by Wu Bin.
The above is a good introduction to the many benefits of the artifact, as well as what kind of foot code matches what brand.
Then the students in the group responded very enthusiastically, typing a string of "666" one after another, and two people even showed up and said that after using Hushubao as insoles, their waists and legs no longer hurt, and they could stand for four hours at a stretch. posture!
Lin Ziqi smiled and looked at it for a while, and also said in the group "The squad leader is mighty~"
"What are you laughing at?" At this time, a girl with a ponytail patted Lin Ziqi and asked.
The girl's name was Jia Yanxuan. When she came to report, she happened to meet Lin Ziqi at the Wuyuan booth, so she quickly became friends.
"Look at the squad leader's military training artifact." Lin Ziqi turned around and said.
After listening, Jia Yanxuan went to Lin Ziqi's computer to take a look and said, "Oh~ Auntie's towel is really comfortable."
"Actually, I only found out after he told me before." Lin Ziqi smiled.
"It seems that the squad leader is quite enthusiastic. Hey, you have participated in competitions with him, right?" Jia Yanxuan asked.
"yes."
"How was his performance in the finals?"
"First place, both in theory and experiment. I feel embarrassed standing with him to receive the award."
Jia Yanxuan hugged Lin Ziqi and laughed and said: "The number one among girls is also very impressive~ I was kicked out of the semi-finals when I was a sophomore in high school, and then I no longer wanted to compete. I am the IPhO champion~ Tsk, it feels like I am not from the same world. people."
"Same, same. In fact, after the finals, I was still a little unconvinced. I thought they had better educational resources than me, or they started earlier than me or something like that. But later, when I arrived at the national team training camp, I realized the differences between people. How big is the gap?"
Jia Yanxuan's eyes immediately lit up when she heard this, and she urged: "Tell me, tell me, what's different about him?"
"Not only is he different, but everyone in the training camp is a monster. I can't understand the way they think about the questions, and the questions they give are even weirder. This Wu Bin is even more of a monster among monsters. When I was learning quantum mechanics, I In fact, he almost fell asleep while listening, and he was still able to discuss the wave nature of electrons with the professor on the stage.”
Jia Yanxuan: "Hahaha, I also studied by myself for a while during the summer vacation. I just read the Bible. Alas, I really envy smart people."
Lin Ziqi shook her head after hearing this: "Not only is he smart, but his hard work... or self-discipline is also very scary. Apart from eating, I have never seen him do anything other than reading. Oh no, he does nothing while eating. I’m reading a book too.”
"I'm even more envious." After Jia Yanxuan finished speaking, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, and said with an ambiguous smile: "Observing so carefully...could it be that you came to HKUST because of him?"
"Of course not! When I was a freshman in high school, I had already planned to take the HKUST exam!" Lin Ziqi shook her head.
"Oh~" Jia Yanxuan nodded.
Seeing Jia Yanxuan's obvious disbelief, Lin Ziqi emphasized again: "Really!"
"I didn't say I didn't believe you~" Jia Yanxuan snickered again after saying that, "It's no wonder~ She's smart, hard-working, and good-looking..."
Lin Ziqi rolled her eyes when she heard this, ignored her, and continued to read computer information, but the blush on her face could not go away for a long time.
…
As military training time in universities becomes shorter and shorter, the time for military training at HKUST is as unusual as its enrollment, a full two and a half weeks!
During this period, many students who were not in good physical condition were carried to the infirmary one after another. After all, just practicing the standing military posture at 39 degrees was torture enough. Sometimes after standing, they had to perform a set of military boxing. Often Some students "knocked themselves down" mid-punch.
And because it was military training in college, many boys' desire to touch a gun was shattered. It can be said that they couldn't find any fun at all.
During these two and a half weeks, Wu Bin was also very tired. He had long been accustomed to being immersed in the ocean of knowledge every day. Now not only could he not find a chance to read it for half a day, but he was probably too tired when he went back in the evening. [Enjoy a peaceful sleep] This talent seems to be a little bit restless, and it often takes a night of sleep before the body recovers.
But no matter what, the two and a half weeks finally passed, and Wu Bin ushered in the college life that Wu Bin was looking forward to.
After spending a month getting familiar with the rhythm of university life, the first thing Wu Bin thought of was.
‘I almost believed Teacher Chen’s words that it would be easy to get into university. ’
The rows for general courses, basic courses in subject groups, professional courses, and elective courses are full.
Moreover, the University of Science and Technology is truly worthy of being famous and professional. Modern history outlines and ideological revision can only take two or three class hours. The teacher on the stage also speaks affectionately. I heard that Wu Bin’s party spirit has greatly increased, and he is fully equipped to devote himself to socialism at any time. state of mind.
In terms of professional courses, Wu Bin chose condensed matter physics.
Wu Bin has a high interest in this subject, which studies the structure and dynamic processes of condensed matter composed of a large number of particles and their connection with macroscopic physical properties from a microscopic perspective.
Having studied physics, although the freshman class schedule was very full, the course was extremely relaxing for Wu Bin. The most important thing he listened to every time he attended the class was the unique opinions of the teachers, which helped him think about problems. Of great help.
I wonder if the surname Cheng has a special bonus to [Electromagnetism]. The teacher who teaches electromagnetics is also named Cheng, but he is not Professor Cheng Jiafu who wrote the Cheng book.
His name is Cheng Fuzhen, and he is also a graduate of HKUST in 1959. He can be said to be the senior of their freshmen.
Teacher Cheng is serious and responsible in his lectures, and specially prepares discussion classes for students to clarify knowledge points. It can be said that it is quite good classroom training.
In addition, he has always emphasized the relationship between mathematics and physics, that is, do not think that you should get into mathematics and forget the physical images, nor should you lack mathematical tools when studying physics.
Wu Bin has been having a happy and comfortable month this month, but for other people in the class, there are already many who can't keep up with the progress.
Many people have lamented, "Did I really take physics in high school?"
There are many other mechanics that have kept up, but are kneeling behind single variable calculus.
However, there are not many students who are depressed because of this. They should go to class, study by themselves, and go to the library. Anyway, there are not many who stay in the dormitory and play games.
…
"Monitor...can I ask you a question?"
Just after the mechanics class ended, a shy boy wearing glasses walked up to Wu Bin and asked.
This month, the students in the class have shifted their admiration for Wu Bin from his title to his admiration for his strength.
Especially the classmate Liang Simeng who came to ask Wu Bin a question. One time, he was writing an assignment on the theory of relativity next to Wu Bin. When he encountered something he didn't understand, he asked Wu Bin, but he didn't expect that the other party actually calculated the answer directly, which made him feel deeply. The gaming experience is extremely poor, but at the same time I admire it immensely.
"certainly."
As usual, Wu Bin patiently helped him answer the theoretical mechanics question in the book about cranes, and completed the formulas in parallel.
"The monitor is awesome!"
Liang Simeng admired the monitor from the bottom of his heart, whose ability to answer questions was comparable to that of a professor.
"I think you can just start the class and forget it." Lin Ziqi, who had been watching from the side, joked.
"I'm not good at studying."
"In terms of modesty, I obey you. Do you want to go to dinner?" Lin Ziqi first gave Wu Bin a thumbs up and then asked.
"Okay, I'm a little hungry."
On the way to the cafeteria, Lin Ziqi stretched and said, "The university courses are really completely different from what I imagined."
Wu Bin: "But you should be able to keep up, right?"
"Alas~" Lin Ziqi sighed, "I originally thought that I had learned a lot of college knowledge through the competition, but I didn't expect that it was just a superficial knowledge. Well... I can't say that, skin?"
"After all, the competition is about the ability to solve problems. College is more theoretical, and the fun is indeed different."
"Only you think it's fun..." Lin Ziqi muttered.
"You get VIP treatment every day, shouldn't you have more fun than me?"
The female students at HKUST can be said to be a precious resource among scarce resources. The worst among them is the engineering major, with a ratio of 66:1, and I heard that the girl has the idea of transferring to another hospital.
However, other departments are not much better. The best proof is that the only female dormitory building in the west area of HKUST is never full.
Such a deplorable male-to-female ratio also means that girls do have a relatively transcendent status at HKUST.
For example, the first three rows of the classroom are reserved for girls by convention. If any ignorant man sits in the first three rows, he will be greeted by the death stares of the boys in the back row for the entire class.
Also, on the HKUST school forum Hanhai Xingyun, if a girl ran for moderator, she wouldn’t even say that she would be chosen, but other competitors would just give up! Absolutely simple! neat!
Last week, Wu Bin also learned that there was a girls' football match at HKUST called the Women's Cup. The popularity was really touching... the number of viewers was always overwhelming. Compared to the boys' football matches, it was really tearful.
"It's not like you get special treatment in studies~it's just as hard." After saying that, Lin Ziqi turned to Wu Bin and asked, "Hey, are you going to sign up for the club?"
"Societies? I'm not interested at the moment." Wu Bin shook his head.
Wu Bin actually went to get to know the clubs, but except for the Fangcao Club and the Debate Club, they were basically very poor. Although he couldn't judge the level, the number of people was really pitiful.
Take the orchestra as an example. Western music starts playing here, and the erhu and flute start playing next to it. If there is a choir, it will be really awesome...
He doesn't know whether it's because the school doesn't pay attention to it or because the students aren't active. Anyway, Wu Bin really doesn't see anything worth learning from when it comes to clubs.
PS: I want to collect information from all the book friends about their life in the freshman year. I am quite curious about the various aspects of college life. (wink)
