Chapter 20 Boring Question

Lying on the bed, Ning Qing directly put on the headphones and eye mask. From this moment on, the world had nothing to do with him.

The headphones were connected to MP3, which played the dubbing of a classic United States of Ryan movie. It was mainly used to learn Ryan's spoken language in foreign language classes. Ning Qing could understand some of it, but when her attention was absorbed in it, she unknowingly

I felt sleepy coming over me and then fell into sleep.

Then, under the control of the powerful biological clock, I opened my eyes at six o'clock the next day.

Ning Qing almost got up with Yu Hongwei, and then started to wash up. This time was just right, because at seven o'clock, the official website of the Haizhou Municipal Education Bureau would put up the link to the question bank of this year's International Mathematics Competition. According to the operation of previous years, as a regional education

The bureau may even hang up the link a few minutes earlier.

The sound of the two getting out of bed also woke up Zhou Yan, who was still sleeping soundly, and he got up in a daze after the two of them.

This is the force of nature, and the poor high school life is so boring.

After washing up, we went out as a group to exercise early... In fact, it is not mandatory to exercise early these days, but before the question came out, the kids in Rocket Class all chose to run two laps on their own initiative. Ning Qing

So he also took Zhou Yan and Liu Xiaohan to follow the pace of the Rocket Class.

For those who have experienced death once, they understand the importance of having a good body. At least they can withstand great sorrows and joys, and they will not lose everything just because of a single defeat. However, exercise can only be done in a superficial way, that is, running around the playground.

After two laps, at Zhou Jingxue's urging, he went to the canteen and started eating.

At this time, students who were in regular classes were continuing their morning exercises. After the contestants had finished their breakfast, it happened to be when other students were eating, and everything was arranged just right.

At 6:50, all the competition groups have sat in their assigned rooms. The screens in most of the rooms are similar. A few heads are in front of the computer, constantly refreshing the official website of the Haizhou City Education Bureau, waiting for

The question bank link appears.

But Ning Qing's group is obviously different. Zhou Yan is holding the novel he brought and reading it with relish. Of course, the cover of the book looks like a collection of college entrance examination simulation exercises. Liu Xiaohan is sitting on the other side, holding a music theory book openly.

Flip through.

Different from Zhou Yan's infinite concentration, Liu Xiaohan would occasionally turn his attention to Ning Qing, who was looking at the computer seriously. He glanced at it lazily, and then read a book again. He could waste time without feeling guilty.

It's actually pretty good.

Ning Qing is serious about surfing the Internet.

I have to say that the Internet speed arranged by the school for the competition team is quite fast. Ning Qing also enjoyed browsing the information. Several special news caught Ning Qing's attention. Of course, they were all economic news. As a former

A well-known but useless economist should always be more concerned about various macroeconomic trends.

The biggest news today is that last night in the Republic of Yonghan, the Ryan Federal Reserve Alliance once again announced an interest rate hike of 0.75 basis points to cope with the growing domestic inflation index. This is a huge and unexpected move.

After all, the market has already accepted this gameplay and already has corresponding countermeasures.

What I didn't expect was that the Ryan Federal Asset Reserve Alliance would be so generous this time and directly raise interest rates by 0.75 basis points. Before, the outside world had always thought that the interest rate would only be raised by 0.5 basis points at most. After all, the problems that the Ryan Federal Reserve Alliance needs to face now are not just currency.

It is as simple as high inflation, but there is also the hidden trouble of high debt.

To put it simply, the national debt is owed too much. The debt of more than 30 trillion Ruin dollars is nearly seven times the total national tax revenue in the same year. What is even more frightening is that the United States of Ruin is still issuing new national debt.

The interest rate on en coins is rising, which also means that the total national debt is expanding.

Not to mention that raising interest rates is just a means of adjustment in economics, and any adjustment means has advantages and disadvantages. A large increase in interest rates may cause people to deposit money in banks, reduce the circulation of funds in the market, and achieve the purpose of curbing price increases.

But it will also cause the capital usage costs of countless companies to soar, and directly affect the stock market and bond market...

Of course, Ning Qing is very clear about these issues, and the facts prove his professionalism.

After the 0.75 basis point interest rate hike was announced, while Ning Qing was sleeping last night, Swiss stocks experienced a plunge that triggered the circuit breaker three times as soon as the market opened.

But the limitations of economists are also reflected here.

Excellent economists can analyze all kinds of economic laws very clearly. They can also analyze very closely what adjustment methods should be used and what market reactions may occur. They can also boast when they stand on the stage and give speeches.

The sky is filled with flowers and flowers.

But when you ask them to solve practical problems, you will find that it is useless.

In the history of the development of economics for a century, a group of smart people have developed countless methods in the hope of regulating the world economy and developing it in a good direction, but what is coming is never absent. So many great economic theories have not saved an economic crisis.

, even slowing down is difficult to achieve.

Regarding this issue, Ning Qing actually has his own opinions.

Economic development is closely related to the development of human life, and even to every human individual. Therefore, in a sense, the occurrence of economic crisis is a game of human nature. There is not much rationality in the game of human nature, but the economic system is

Supported by a rigorous mathematical theoretical system, various tools also rely on decisions made by actuaries after judging the situation.

Irreconcilable contradictions have made economics one of the seemingly high-end but actually worthless disciplines in the world.

After taking a deep breath, Ning Qing saw that the time had reached 7:30, and he opened the official website of the Haizhou City Education Bureau through the browser's favorites.

In this world, he has not grown up enough to care about such big things as the world economic cycle, and it is time to get down to business.

As for starting the topic selection half an hour late, Ning Qing didn't care. She didn't feel much pressure competing with a bunch of high school students.

Soon, this year's competition topic was displayed in front of him.

Coincidentally, the first question is one closely related to economics, "Small profits but quick turnover model based on the concept of discount intensity."

Specifically, it uses the daily sales data of a certain shopping mall for a period of time, and then selects the discount rate, profit margin, discount intensity, etc. of some products to establish a robust linear regression model of discount intensity, product turnover, and profit margin.

Then further analyze the impact of different product categories on the model.

After taking a look at it, Ning Qing gave up on this question for no other reason than it was too simple and boring.
