Watson pulled out a notebook from the compartment of his backpack, took the Parker pen from the notebook, then opened the notebook, pointed to one of the pages with the pen, and said, "This is the question I use to evaluate students, and if you can solve it, I will reward you with this money." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang has never heard of the fact that he can get a bonus for answering a question, isn't this too?

He asked suspiciously, "What do you want to do?"

"I want to see what your capital is so arrogant, and you actually disdain MIT, which deeply hurts my self-esteem, you can take this as a challenge, and if you succeed in the challenge, you will get the corresponding reward, if the challenge fails, then don't blame me for looking down on you, how about it, do you have the guts to try it?"

Watson is clearly using the agitation method, Niu Xiaoqiang doesn't care about the agitation or anything, he only cares about the RMB in Watson's hand.

Because of the recent tight rumors, Niu Xiaoqiang has not dared to go out to make money for more than a month. Seeing that his family is engaged in double robbery, and he has to spend money to buy pesticides and fertilizers for the next round of sowing, he is of course very eager for RMB.

After a short trade-off, Niu Xiaoqiang finally decided to fight. He is not afraid of failing the challenge, anyway, the other party is a foreigner, and he won't meet him often, so it doesn't matter if he loses face. But if the challenge is successful, he will be rewarded handsomely.

"Okay, I accept your challenge. ”

Watson smiled and handed the notebook and pen to Niu Xiaoqiang, and said: Don't blame me if you cry because of the topic, when you are at a loss, I will implement the next plan, and then see if you are tempted!

Niu Xiaoqiang lowered his head and looked at this question carefully, the more he looked at his face, the more solemn his face became, obviously, Watson's question was very difficult.

This question is an improved version of the famous "Königsberg Seven Bridges Problem", and after Watson's transformation, it is difficult for even those who have previously known "Königsberg Seven Bridges Problem" to solve it.

Watson didn't want to test how smart the student's mind was. In his opinion, even the brightest students will not be able to solve this problem in a short time.

The main reason why he adapted such a question is to firmly attract the best quality students.

When the students who are being assessed have no results in their thoughts, Watson will carry out the next step of the seduction plan.

He had already programmed the solution into a computer program and saved it on his laptop, and when the time came, he only had to open the computer and type in a few simple instructions, and the answer to the improved Königsberg Seven Bridges problem would be displayed on the screen. Will the students be dumbfounded, will they be shocked, will they feel that they are a great teacher?

Watson felt that this innovative approach to admissions would attract high-quality students so that they would not be snatched away by other universities.

As the saying goes, peers are rivals, and there is competition among the world's top universities. In the case of similar hardware facilities, the real need to compete is talent.

Every year during admissions season, many students submit applications to more than one university. They also have the freedom to choose, and when universities are picking them, they are also picking universities, and the best students are the target of all universities. Although MIT is very good, other universities are not much worse.

Such as Harvard, Yale, California Berkeley, Stanford, Cambridge, Oxford, etc., these world's top universities compete for quality students every year.

Whether a school is strong or not depends mainly on talents. High-quality students will be the backbone of top scientific research in the future, and it is no exaggeration to say that the progress of science is driven by these outstanding talents.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has a very strong reputation, so it attracts a lot of high-quality students every year, but this is not enough. It must be known that those top students are also very arrogant, and if you want to win their favor, in addition to relying on the name of the school, you must also find a way to arouse their interest, only in this way can you completely win them.

Some students were hesitant to go to Harvard or MIT, but when Watson used this trick, these wavering students immediately strengthened their belief in going to MIT.

It's easy to understand: if you're the same world-class university, would you rather go to a school with a novel teaching method, or a school with a relatively rigid approach?

Students are human beings, and they also like a relaxed and new learning atmosphere, and Watson's tricks happen to have these characteristics, so he can recruit the top students of his choice every year.

It was the first time he had encountered a situation like Niu Xiaoqiang. In the past, when recruiting students, no matter how good the other party was, even if they won the gold medal in the Olympiad competition, they would show the least respect and respect for MIT, because this school has the strength to make them feel respect and respect.

Watson just said that Niu Xiaoqiang hurt his self-esteem, this sentence is really not nonsense, but his true words.

What a contempt for me? In that case, then no wonder I am calculating you, I don't believe that you kid will not take the bait!

Twenty-five minutes passed, Niu Xiaoqiang was still frowning and pondering, and Watson couldn't help but feel secretly proud. He felt a sense of revenge, but he also felt an eyebrow raised.

- Didn't you think you were great, kid, you just looked like you were invincible, hmph, how do you feel now? hahahaha!

"There it is!"

When Watson was secretly complacent, Niu Xiaoqiang suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted.

Niu Xiaoqiang spoke Chinese, and Watson didn't understand. Unsuspecting, he was taken aback, and asked with a little heartbeat, "What were you talking about just now?"

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't answer, he was writing hard in his notebook with a pen. Under Watson's gaze, lines of formulas were written by him. After writing the formula, Niu Xiaoqiang drew two geometric figures, which were then marked with symbols.

After doing all this, Niu Xiaoqiang finally had time to speak: "Mr. Watson, this is the solution I came up with, I have written them out in detail, please check them." ”

Watson was completely stunned, his mind seemed to have entered another world, and he did not respond to Niu Xiaoqiang's words.
