After another half hour, the written test was completely over.
All the professors rushed to the square and quickly marked the test papers with reference answers.
The promotion method is very simple, and you can participate in the interview if you pass.
With hundreds of professors on-site "exploding scores", 1,107 out of 1,764 candidates were eliminated. The elimination rate was astonishing, leaving only 657 candidates.
The losers, gloomy and gloomy, lined up to board the helicopter and left silently.
With a serious look on his face, the winner rode a giant squid across the Black Lake and entered the castle for a more brutal interview.
Twenty minutes later, all the candidates walked through the wide corridor and arrived at the auditorium. Under the instructions of the professors, they found a seat and sat down.
No candidates talked to each other.
At this point, everyone is a competitor.
"Classmates." Professor Li stood on the high platform and spoke condescendingly: "Please concentrate on the next step. I will notify you in the order of numbers to enter the small room behind me for interviews. Each number will only be repeated three times. If no one answers, it will be ignored. To give up.”
"Number 0021, 0045, 0047!"
"I!"
"And I!"
The three candidates reacted violently, raising their hands desperately and rushing out of their seats.
"Well, go in. Be polite."
"Thank you, instructor."*3
The three of them looked at each other, pushed open the wooden door, walked into the hut, and stood side by side.
There were five examiners in the room, and the one sitting in the center was Chen Yu.
"Because there are so many candidates, let's not be polite to each other and start the exam directly." Chen Yu crossed his fingers to support his chin, looked at the three of them from left to right, then pointed at the candidate on the left and asked: "Excuse me, periodic table of elements. How many elements are there in total?”
The candidate on the left was stunned, as if he didn't expect the test questions to be so simple, and blurted out "118."
"Very good." Chen Yu nodded and looked at the second person: "Excuse me, how many cycles do they have in total? How many elements are there in each cycle?"
The candidate in the middle thought for a while and said: "Two in the first cycle, eight in the second and third cycles, eighteen in the fourth and fifth cycles, and finally thirty-two in the sixth and seventh cycles."
"Great." Chen Yu gave a thumbs up and looked at the third person.
The candidate on the right thought that Chen Yu was going to ask about the names of all the elements, so he puffed up his chest with satisfaction and waited for the question.
"Excuse me, what is the relative atomic mass of each element?"
Candidate on the right: "???"
"Yeah." Chen Yu shook his head slightly, picked up a pen, and scratched a few times on the paper seriously: "It seems that your knowledge reserve is still problematic."
Putting down his pen, Chen Yu raised his head again and looked at the candidate on the left: "For the second round, excluding other language families, how many major language families are there in the world?"
The candidate on the left glanced at his two companions with gloating eyes and blurted out, "Seven major language families."
"Very good. May I ask what their names are?"
The candidate in the middle hesitated slightly: "They are Indo-European, Sino-Tibetan, Altaic, Semitic, Dravida, Caucasian, and Uralic."
"Excellent, it's your turn." Chen Yu looked at the third candidate and smiled: "Please speak all the representative languages of these seven language families."
Candidate: “…”
"Classmate, there is indeed a problem with your knowledge." Chen Yu wrote again, made a few strokes, and started the third round again: "First classmate, please tell me, since there is evidence, the earliest time when humans began to pay attention to astronomical phenomena. , when is it?”
The candidate on the left almost jumped with excitement: "The Neolithic Age, about 2500 BC!"
"The second question is, how did humans observe astronomy in 2500 BC?"
The candidate in the middle frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "Place the boulders in specific positions to symbolize certain movements of the moon and the sun, as well as the time of the winter solstice and summer solstice in a year. Other features have not yet been deciphered by humans."
“Excellent!”
"Excellent!" Chen Yu applauded.
"Bah bang bang."
The other four background examiners also applauded.
After the applause fell, Chen Yu looked at the third candidate.
Candidate: “…”
"Excuse me, what was the name of the leader who built Stonehenge?"
Candidate: “…”
"How come you don't know anything?"
"Mr. School...Principal." The examinee on the right's face turned dark.
"What's wrong?"
"No...nothing..." The candidate finally held back.
"The interview is over, everyone, please go down." Chen Yu waved his hand.
"YES!" The first candidate was overjoyed, bowed to Chen Yu, and strode out.
"Thank you, examiners." The candidates in the middle left silently.
Only the third candidate turned red with anger and wanted to speak, but didn't say anything and left angrily.
"How about it?"
Waiting for all three candidates to leave, Chen Yu looked around: "Which one do you think can stay?"
All the professors showed "kind" smiles: "You have the final say, you have the final say..."
"Okay." Chen Yu nodded, his tone suddenly serious: "Only the second one. From the beginning to the end, I didn't suffer too much interference from the outside world. I focused on my own problems and thought twice before I act. It's very good."
"The first candidate has too much mood swings and poor self-control. He gets carried away easily and may become depressed when he is hit. He has never looked at the professors except me from the beginning to the end. He has a high self-esteem and is not suitable to join the academy."
"The third one also has a problem with his patience. He was treated unfairly and retorted and questioned not calmly. Apart from getting angry, he did not reveal any outstanding qualities. He also lacked courage and was very easily suppressed by power and deviated from his original intention. He is also not suitable to join. Academy.”
This is the selection method Chen Yu decided.
There are more than 600 candidates who entered the interview. In terms of strength, every one of them is a big shot. Therefore, the purpose of the interview is mainly to examine the personality.
As for the quality of each character, it is up to him to judge.
Permission dog, you can do whatever you want...
In this regard, by the end of the afternoon, the interviews of all 657 candidates were completed.
577 people were eliminated, and exactly 80 people advanced.
"Principal, this is the list of eighty students, shall we announce it now?" Within three minutes, Professor Li walked into the small room with the printed list document and placed it in front of Chen Yu's desk.
"Wait a moment, let me see if there are any mistakes."
Picking up the list file, Chen Yu quickly scanned it from top to bottom, thought for a moment, and added the names of eight more candidates at the end with a pen: "Eight more people have been added, eighty-eight, auspicious. Professor Li, take it." Announce it.”
Professor Li took it and wondered, "Principal, weren't these eight people eliminated?"
"Yes." Chen Yu nodded: "Although they were eliminated in the interview, in my opinion, they are all very good students with talents that astound me, so I cannot let them go."
"Really?" Professor Li was surprised: "What talent?"
"Everyone is very beautiful."
