The strongest brain in entertainment

Chapter 292 The Strongest Brain (3)

The game was extremely tense.

With the birth of the top three, the pressure on all the players suddenly increased.

The live broadcast continues:

"No. 4, contestant No. 1, Du Juan, with a time of 2 minutes and 10 seconds, from Harvard University!"

"No. 5, contestant No. 2, Miao Miao, with a time of 2 minutes and 15 seconds, from Chenhua University!"

……

The heads of all the contestants were "buzzing". Their psychological pressure at this time was completely different from that before the game. Before the game, it might just be that the heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, with a sense of tension that was eager to try.But at this time, there is an added mentality of not being as good as others. Many players will suddenly become panicked in their hearts, and have a faint feeling of doubting themselves and life.Of course, during the game, nervousness and impatience took the main role.

Just imagine, I just came to the challenge area from the big screen, and Li Fan has already completed the challenge. I just tore open the package of props and pushed a few sliders, but No.2 suddenly appeared!

Okay, I'm not as good as No.1; ok, I'm not as good as No.2; okay, I'm not as good as No.3... Damn, I can't even make it to the top 20! !

The one hundred people present are all the pride of heaven. Some belong to the Huaguo High IQ Club, and many of them are top students in the college entrance examination in various provinces and cities. Many of them grew up drinking "sweet talk" since they were young. And has been in a state of being looked up to by others, so everyone is naturally high-spirited and confident.

As a result, at this moment when the Chinese geniuses gathered together, I was immediately turned into a scumbag by the players in front of me. This huge psychological gap was quite challenging, and many players performed abnormally as a result.

The most annoying thing is that in addition to the staff constantly reporting the rankings and dozens of referees dressed in black walking around, the host Jia Yun also keeps talking about it.

Jia Yun: "Li Fan, are you satisfied with the results just now?"

"It's alright."

"How difficult do you think this question is?"

"It's alright."

"Then, among these six abilities, which one do you think will become your greatest weakness?"

"Calculation skills, uh, and observation skills!"

……

A contestant glanced towards the middle of the stage and gritted his teeth angrily, "Your grandma has a leg, can you not talk?"We are distracted! !
Guest seats:
Talking about Chen (doctor Chen): "This is a stressful environment specially created by the program group. From stage lighting to live music, from referees in black and sunglasses to hosts, they will subconsciously affect the mentality of the contestants."

Wang Mu pouted: "You guys are too ruthless, this is an intellectual challenge, a mental competition, there is no need for it!"

Nagging Chen: "No, it is necessary. The ultimate goal of this session is to select all-round super talents, to stand on the world stage, without a strong and stable psychological quality, then when the time comes The strength will be greatly reduced."

While talking, Haha stood up excitedly, pointed at the competition area and shouted: "Look! Look! Zhou Qi, Zhou Qi is done!"

Several people glanced over and saw Zhou Qi step by step out of the challenge area with the support of his parents.

Zhou Qi's name was immediately displayed on the big screen, and the on-site staff began to announce:
"No. 25, player No. 53, Zhou Qi, took 2 minutes and 26 seconds!"

There was a sound of "wow" at the scene. Zhou Qi, a patient with cerebral palsy, has advanced to the top 80. How can you embarrass normal people?How can you embarrass that young man who claims to have the highest IQ in China who is still working hard on the challenge?
All the contestants couldn't help but wipe their foreheads, they had never fucked a person with cerebral palsy! (This sentence does not need to be complicated or derogatory. It does not have any discriminatory meaning. It is just people's normal psychological wonder. I have never fucked someone else despite their flaws. This makes me feel so embarrassed.)
"Crack!" A contestant accidentally knocked off the slider in desperation.

Some contestants had red eye circles and were so anxious that they were about to cry.

Some players were sweating profusely, and their hands were trembling uncontrollably.

……

"No. 35, contestant No. 50..."

……

"No. 41, contestant No. 80..."

……

Halfway through the competition, Li Fan's eyes swept away from the contestants one by one. He mainly observed the performance of a few alumni, especially Lin Xiaofeng from his elite class.

After a while, Lin Xiaofeng quickly pressed the timing device, and the referee raised the sign after confirming it: valid!

Lin Xiaofeng shook her head, dissatisfied with her results, but fortunately, she passed the test and passed the test with a score of 52nd, which was a big improvement from the 85th place in the preliminaries.

In fact, this ranking is meaningless at all. Maybe this project meets your specialty and can be ranked in the top 10. The next project is your weakness, and then it is no surprise that you are eliminated.

After more than a minute, the 1th place finally came out.

"The 80th place, No. 71 player Lei Jia, took 4 minutes and 53 seconds! The remaining 20 players are all eliminated!"

The lights on the stage dimmed instantly, and the sad music sounded. The 20 eliminated contestants lowered their heads one after another, leaving the stage devastated.

Jia Yun: "Thank you, thank you for participating in the recording of "The Most Powerful Brain". The sharp edge of the sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. I hope this small tribulation will become a stepping stone on the road of your life. , smell the plum blossoms again! Thank you, goodbye!"

The 20 figures left lonely. Before that, they silently looked up at the results on the big screen to see the gap between them and the advanced players.

On the big screen:

0 to 1 minute: 1 person, Li Fan. (To monopolize the leader, dominate the first rank.)
1 minute to 2 minutes: 2 people, Zhang Ye, Brother Niubi.

2 minutes to 3 minutes: 31 people...

3 minutes to 4 minutes: 40 people...

4 minutes to 5 minutes: 6 people...

The level of these 80 talented players is extremely high, but there is a gap between ordinary people and geniuses, and there is still a huge gap between geniuses and peerless geniuses.

The audience at the scene saw this cool, and they like to be a bully and bully a bully!I love watching them kill each other!

When all the tables on the stage were removed, Jia Yun said: "If you don't climb a high mountain, you don't know the height of the sky; if you don't face a deep stream, you don't know the depth of the earth. There are people beyond the sky, and everyone must have felt it after the competition just now." Right? There are currently 80 people left, and we will have the second round of competition.

In the second round of competition, we designed a total of 6 challenge items, which focus on spatial force, reasoning ability, calculation ability, creativity, observation ability and memory ability respectively.

According to the results of the previous round, 80 players stepped forward to choose challenge projects according to their own preferences. Only 13 to 14 people can participate in each project.The last two contestants in each event will be eliminated, and the one with the best score will receive a pass-through spot and directly advance to the top 30!
No. 88 Li Fan, ranked first in the last round, please step forward and choose! "

Everyone thought, there is no doubt that Li Fan has advanced without any suspense. Memory, Li Fan directly chooses the memory challenge. If he fails, who can pass the test, all the players here?
However, in the next moment, everyone opened their mouths wide and were taken aback.

Li Fan, he didn't choose the memory challenge at all!
He stood up from the player's seat, hesitating between [Calculation Challenge] and [Observation Challenge] with intelligent eyes, and then, beyond everyone's expectations, he walked to the [Observation Challenge] with his head held high. behind the sign.

Guest seats:
Lei Ge frowned: "He didn't choose [Memory Challenge]?"

Sister Haha: "Wow, he really came to challenge me. Just now he said that his observation ability is weak, but then he challenged his weakness?"

Wang Mu felt a burst of excitement in his heart: Great, my handsome Li!

Jia Yun couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, she turned her gaze to Zhang Ye, "No. 45, Zhang Ye, ranked 3rd in the qualifiers, ranked 2nd in the last round, please choose!"

……

The 80 contestants quickly chose their own challenge items. In this round, everyone chooses what they are really good at. Who can choose what they are not good at?Everyone is not Li Fan!
Now Li Fan's realm has been raised a bit. He is not afraid of failure. If he was afraid of failure, he would not have participated in this show. He came here to open his eyes on the spot. Push your brain to the limit.

There is an obvious difference between him and other players. With his current status, failure in a challenge event will not have any substantial impact on him. Perhaps many people will think that the failed Li Fan is not perfect, but for Li Fan personally In other words, Li Fan is still Li Fan, and his social status and personal achievements remain unchanged.

Li Fan's idea is also very simple. He didn't come here to guarantee the bottom line, but to challenge his limits. He knew that he could pass the project with his eyes closed, so why did he choose it?

Of course, only people with Li Fan's current state of mind have such extraordinary thoughts. After all, for people like them, challenges are their only pursuit.

But the vast majority of players still have to guarantee the bottom line, and find a way to advance!

The recording of the program was temporarily stopped, everyone took a break, and the staff began to set up the first challenge project.

The staff carried up more than 100 boards with a height of 5 meters. The boards faced each other in pairs and were spliced ​​together according to the numbers to form a closed space in the shape of a "mouth" (top-down view) on the stage. The "mouth" is surrounded by boards to form a big "mouth" shape, so that the "circle" on the stage becomes a "hui"-shaped structure ("hui": a top-down top view)

(Note: After entering the "Hui"-shaped room, contestants can walk freely between the inside of the "big mouth" and the outside of the "small mouth".)
The contestants had shown various gestures of worship to Li Fan just now, but now facing this unknown challenge, everyone became suspicious for a while.

Lin Xiaofeng: "I think this must be another sham project."

Niubi glanced at Li Fan: "In the last project, I didn't even know who the 36 Tiangang Stars were referring to. The main reason for the loss was here. In this round, I didn't choose this challenge project, otherwise I will definitely give it to you guys." A number one, let you see!"

Zhang Ye glanced at him and thought to himself, why are you so bragging?Where have you put me?

After a short break, the recording resumes.

Jia Yun took the stage and introduced the details of the competition.

The first challenge project to be carried out is [Observation Challenge]. The 13 contestants who choose this project will take the lead in challenging this project.

Project name: "Seeking Springs in the Desert".

"What is "Looking for Spring in the Desert", please watch it on the big screen!"

On the big screen, a rectangular pattern made up of colored fragments was displayed. The adjacent patterns have different shapes and colors.

"In this rectangular wall of colored fragments, some of the colored fragments can form 4 animals. Anyone who finds them in the audience can raise their hands."

The audience squinted their eyes and looked carefully, and only then did someone discover the four animals one after another.

"It's a cat, coordinates (35, 78) (40, 82)..."

"It's a dog..."

"Our "Looking for the Spring in the Desert" project is not to ask everyone to find the pattern from the debris wall, but to give the outline of the player's target pattern and let the player find the pattern in the debris wall."

Everyone said oh, that's how it is.

Jia Yun asked, "Is this difficult?"

The audience said in unison: "It's difficult!"

"What about this?"

After Jia Yun finished speaking, a fragment wall composed of more than [-] fragments that was countless times more complicated than before was displayed on the big screen.

"Wow, it's so difficult, my eyes are blurred!"

"Intensive phobia! Grandma, I'm sick!"

"How can I find this?"

……

Jia Yun smiled slightly: "This is not over yet, everyone, please watch the big screen!"

On the big screen, the plane "debris wall" suddenly cracked and split into two parallel rectangles of equal size in a parallel manner.

(For example, let's simplify complex abstract problems.

If a debris wall is composed of 16 letters, 4X4=16㎡, the specific composition is as follows:

ABCD
EFGH
IGKL
MNOP
Now we split the fragmented wall made of letters in parallel to form two new patterns of 4X4=16㎡, as shown below:
(One)

A port C port

E port G port

I port K port

M port O port

(two)

port B port D
Port F Port H
Mouth G Mouth L
port N port P
("mouth" means "blank", which is the blank after disassembly.)
When we combine the two split rectangles of equal size and relative size together, it becomes again:
ABCD
EFGH
IGKL
MNOP
This is the simple process of turning the plane fragment wall into a space three-dimensional fragment wall, the basic principle.

The challenge of "The Most Powerful Brain" is much more complicated than this.

If we follow the example above, the fission is along the edges between the colored fragments. Such fission is meaningless (because the challenge can be completed by just looking at one of the walls), while the fission in the game is irregular and random. , not along the edge of the fragment.

In other words, in the first step, the player must first synthesize the debris wall, and in the second step, select the outline of the target pattern from the recovered debris wall.

This is the most difficult difficulty.

When the audience saw the wall of space debris, they all shouted cheating.

Even the players on the scene were confused.

The difficulty analysis of this question is as follows:

(1) There are eight kinds of colors that can confuse the eyesight. Among them, the warm and cold colors will interfere with the distance of human vision, and the adjacent and similar colors will interfere with each other.

(2) Tens of thousands of fragments of different shapes can be spliced ​​and combined in countless ways, and can be spliced ​​into countless animals of various shapes, and even dogs of different shapes (some with vertical tails, some with cocked tails) tail, some turn their heads to the right, some to the left.).

(3) Ignore the edge of the fragments, fission without rules, which is the most difficult.

(4) Although it is to examine observation ability, it needs the support of comprehensive ability, including spatial integration ability, memory ability and so on.

(5) Analyze later.

Jia Yun said: "Please show the [six-dimensional ability radar map] on the big screen!"

[Six-dimensional capability radar map]:
Spatial force: 4
Reasoning Power: 3
Calculation power: 1
Creativity: 3
Observation: 5
Memory: 4
"Please ask the staff to tear off the curtain, the game begins!"

The curtain was torn off, and all the fragment shapes appeared in the fragment wall of the entire "Hui" structure.

The character "Hui" is a top-down view. The contestants have to open the door of the wall of the character "Hui", and then observe back and forth in the space formed by the "big mouth" and "small mouth" of "Hui".

When the 13 contestants opened the door and walked into the room with the word "Hui", they were struck by lightning, and they were all dumbfounded.

Everyone crowded at the door one by one, look at the left wall, look at the right wall, there is a lot of confusion!

What I said before was that the two fragmented walls were equal and parallel to each other, right?

However, in the wall with the word "Hui", just talking about the floor plan, how can the "vertical" and "vertical" (or "horizontal" and "horizontal") of "big mouth" and "small mouth" be equal in size?

Only then did the 13 contestants realize that there was still a fucking stumbling block here.

The fragment wall on the left and the fragment wall on the right should have been equal in size and merged into one, but now, the inner wall is proportionally smaller than the outer wall!
Without spatial and visual symmetry, how does this group of players face it?

The 67 players watching the game from other groups couldn't help but secretly rejoice:

"Oh my god, I'm glad I didn't choose this."

"This is too perverted, let me in, that's death!"

"Color, fragments, space, non-equal proportion symmetry, let me go, is this the primary item for screening contestants?"

Tanao Chen introduced: "This question is extremely difficult. It not only requires spatial integration ability and excellent observation and reasoning ability, but also needs to solve the serious information interference items with unequal proportions under the principle of symmetry!"

Among all the contestants, when everyone was scratching their heads and stuck at the starting point, there was nothing to do, some had already started, and some started again.

Haha girl stood up, surprised and said: "What is he going to do again?"

Wang Mu rubbed his face, "I don't understand, I can't understand! Come on this show, I seem to be mentally handicapped!"

Brother Lei was still full of doubts and asked: "Doctor Chen, please analyze it scientifically. What does he mean?"

Naoba Chen leaned forward and stared straight at the big screen. This... science is a bit difficult to analyze!
