Five minutes before nine, the provincial team had completed their check-in for training.
After finishing his last cigarette in the hallway, Teacher Jie entered the classroom on time, not looking at anyone. He headed straight to the blackboard, picked up a piece of chalk, and wrote down three big, crooked characters—
Jie Qifen.
After writing, he threw down the chalk and pointed at the blackboard.
"Make sure you see it clearly, the 'Qi' from 'dispute,' and don't write it as the 'Fen' from Liu Jifen."
Amid sparse laughter, Jie Qifen directly took a seat on the platform, casually nodding to the class, "We only have seven days, so let's not waste time. This training session, I have two paths here, but limited time means choosing just one. So, let me ask first, who wants to get closer to the truth of physics? Raise your hand."
This first question stunned everyone.
Still, three or five people, including Qi Yingnan, caught on and raised their hands high.
