Chapter 90 I heard wrong (second update)

In China, a student dormitory of the Mathematics Department of a university in Nanjing.

Fan Chen stood up from his seat, stretched and closed his laptop.

It's already past one o'clock, and I have to go to the classroom to give online substitute classes in the afternoon.

I should have taken a good rest during my lunch break at noon.

As a result, I was fascinated by the NBA game. After watching the game, I also surfed the Goupu forum with high intensity for a while.

Time passes quickly while browsing the forum, especially posting replies and interacting with other people.

Normal interactions are fine, but if we get into a quarrel over some opinions, it will be endless.

Fan Chen’s ID on the Goupu forum is Shengfan, which is the reverse homophony of his name.

When he was in high school in 2006, he liked watching the NBA because he was looking for basketball videos online and discovered Goupu.com.

At this time, Lao Yu suddenly shouted: "Damn it, what kind of operation is this Clippers doing? They actually renewed Randolph's 4-year, 71 million contract in advance! After just playing a few good games, they just renewed it."

Are you on? The general manager of the Clippers is really cool this year, doing all kinds of tricks."

After a while after replying, another red dot appeared. When I clicked on it, the other party actually thanked me for the advice?

Of course, he is not a mathematical genius and cannot become a Fields Medal-winning mathematician.

Fan Chen likes to be alone, eating alone, attending classes alone, studying and reading alone, watching football alone, and playing games quietly alone.

"Yeah, look at Goupu's home page. There's news."

He has very few mood swings. The most exciting moment this year was when he saw Kobe and the Lakers win the championship. He just sat at the table and clenched his fists, that's all.

Since then, he has become a loyal user of Goupu.com. His favorite team is the Lakers and his favorite player is Kobe.

He has the ability to multi-task. Even if the teacher asks him to answer a question, he can still give the answer smoothly.

"Who would have thought that the Lakers would lose to the Clippers in the opening game? It's really, so speechless, so speechless."

Xiao Hei was focused on the Thunder game and didn't pay much attention to what Lao Yu said.

You said Kobe Bryant hugged his thigh? Put a victory share in front of you.

When I went to college, it was hard to attend classes every day and have a lot of homework because I majored in mathematics.

Xiao Hei has already started the Sina live broadcast in a hurry. The game between the Thunder and the Magic has entered the second half. The Thunder is indeed leading the Magic by a large score, and the game has basically lost its suspense.

This was the first time that Lao Yu saw Fan Chen making such a loud noise and got angry. What was going on? It was the Clippers, not the Lakers.

Sometimes having a good memory is not necessarily a good thing. It is better to forget some uncomfortable and painful things.

"With 4 wins and 2 losses, if we didn't lose the first game, we would now be 5 wins and 1 loss, surpassing the Suns for first place in the Western Conference."

After sitting down, Fan Chen took out his phone and continued to browse. His attention was attracted by other replies, and he stopped replying to "Clippers General Manager mcd".

When I clicked on it, it turned out to be a private message. It was sent by someone with the ID of Clippers general manager mcd, asking why Randolph performed so well this year.

The Lakers have no game today. They easily defeated the Memphis Grizzlies yesterday and won 4 consecutive games, ranking fifth in the Western Conference with 4 wins and 2 losses.

You say Kobe's efficiency is low? Well...that's no way, his efficiency is indeed quite low.

You said Kobe's shooting percentage is low? Let's slap his true shooting percentage in your face.

There was no expression on his face, just a faint smile. His roommates called him Ice Man.

But Fan Chen heard it clearly. Suddenly his pupils trembled. He turned around and asked Lao Yu: "Lao Yu, what did you say? The Clippers have renewed Randolph's contract in advance!"

After class, Fan Chen went to the cafeteria to eat alone. He walked on the school road, surrounded by classmates who gathered in twos and threes.

With the Lakers winning the championship this summer, Lakers fans and Kobe fans are unmatched in the forum, and it is difficult for any other fan group to match them.

This kid was obviously playing with his cell phone, but he was actually listening, and the teacher couldn't do anything to him.

It's not that he has no emotions, it's just that most things are within his expectations, so there's nothing to be surprised about.

The next day, after the first period of elementary number theory in the morning, Fan Chen left the classroom and returned to his dormitory, where he opened the live broadcast website and prepared to watch football.

"Tomorrow at 10:30 in the morning, there is a game between the Lakers and the Hornets, Kobe Bryant vs. Paul, it is worth watching. One class of elementary number theory in the morning is enough. I skipped class in the second period. Even if the teacher calls on me, my usual score is enough.

The final test paper plus the normal score is estimated to be around 87 points, um... including the scores in other subjects, the scholarship is no problem. Okay, I will skip class tomorrow to watch the game."

This allows him to get twice the result with half the effort in his studies. He always has a lot of free time to do what he likes, such as playing basketball, reading novels and so on.

A small red dot appeared on the website page, and there was another reply. Just now, he was arguing with someone in the dormitory about whether Kobe's performance in the 2009 Finals reached Jordan's level. I don't know what response the other party gave.

Teacher Xiandai adjusted his glasses and could only ask Fan Chen to sit down.

On the way to the classroom, Fan Chen was still thinking about the game between the Lakers and the Clippers. It had been two weeks, but he still couldn't get over the near-defeat against the Clippers.

Joining him in skipping class to watch football are Lao Yu and Xiao Hei, who live in the same dormitory. Lao Yu is also a Lakers fan, while Xiao Hei is a Thunder fan and likes Durant.

Fan Chen put down his mobile phone, coughed, cleared his throat, and replied: "The inverse matrix of the elementary matrix corresponding to the row and column swap is itself because elementary transformations are reversible, that is, A becomes

B, B can become A by taking the same path but in opposite directions..."

At this time, the teacher's voice came to my ears: "Fan Chen, please answer the question I just raised."

"Xiao Hei, why did you skip class to watch the Lakers game?" Lao Yu asked.

In the classroom, during the algebra class, Fan Chen sat at the back and took out his phone while listening and continued to browse the forum replies.

Although these things have no practical use, they can satisfy people's vanity to a great extent.

The other party actually replied yes, and he wanted the Clippers to renew Randolph's contract in advance.

But for him, who is extremely talented, college mathematics is not a difficult subject.

After returning to the dormitory and going to bed to rest, Fan Chen had already calculated everything and decided to skip class and watch the game tomorrow.

There are couples, friends, some playing ball together, some going to eat together, and some going back to the dormitory to play games after eating.

Although the game starts at 10:30, there is still a while to go, so Fan Chen and Lao Yu are not in a hurry.

This guy is a bit interesting. He really thinks he is the general manager of the Clippers and is playing tricks with me here.

Hehe, I have quarreled with people online a lot, and it’s really rare to see such a polite person, but I don’t know what I pointed out to him.

A fluent answer, exactly the same as in the textbook, without missing a word.

"Randolph? He's a Clippers fan. Randolph's performance... it must be because of the contract year. If it's not bad, it must be for the purpose of mixing contracts."

But he has had a special ability since he was a child, which is his ability to process numbers and his memory.

Another benefit brought by this talent is that he is very strong in forum debates and remembers all kinds of data clearly.

But this time it shows that data cannot reflect a player's full strength.

With his outstanding data analysis skills, Shengfan was invincible in various debates on the forum, and gained a lot of attention and fans in a short time.

He jokingly replied, "You want to give advice to the Clippers management?"

"Who said I skipped school to watch the Lakers? There is a Thunder game today! The Thunder game is already halfway through and they are leading by a big score. Let's go back and watch the finale."

It is easy to use some high-level basketball data, such as PER (efficiency value), WS (win shares), and TS (true shooting percentage).

Fan Chen quickly opened the Goupu homepage, and the headline that caught his eye was:

"The Clippers renewed Zach Randolph's contract ahead of schedule and offered him a four-year, $71 million contract."

"Hey, what's wrong with you Fan Chen, I've never seen you behave like this. Is this not a big deal?"

"Oh, it's okay, I heard wrong."
