147: Continuing the family line? What kind of a task is that!
Ding! User successfully submitted the second paper! Based on the journal's influence and the user's paper influence, the System's comprehensive evaluation is A-level! Gained Mathematics Experience + 10000! Gained Silver-level Reward Mission Card + 1!
The System prompt sounding in his ear made Guo Hao slightly stunned.
He hadn't expected the System to pop up again at this time?
This broken System, it seems, wants him to increase his academic influence as quickly as possible???
Guo Hao appeared thoughtful.
Journal influence, A-level?
This journal is almost the best among all Mathematics journals, second only to the top four!
In other words, if the paper he published was in Mathematics Annals, maybe his evaluation would become S-level?
And then he would be able to gain more experience and higher rewards???
He thought about it for a moment.
This is probably the System's reward logic.
It seems that he will have to publish more papers in the future, and try his best to publish in better journals, journals with greater academic influence, so that the System rewards he gets will also be more!
However, ten thousand Mathematics experience is a bit too little.
Ever since Guo Hao's Mathematics level broke through to Lv5, his experience bar had directly surged to 200,000!
Ten thousand experience can only be described as a drop in the bucket!
But this System prompt did allow Guo Hao to find another mechanism of the System.
Or rather, this wasn't a new mechanism in the first place.
Something similar had appeared before.
The System was rewarding his behavior of increasing academic influence.
From this perspective, it was only natural for the System to give him this reward.
Then, when the paper in Academician Jiang Lei's hands is published, according to the System's usual behavior, he should also be able to get a wave of Chemistry subject experience?
He just didn't know if there would still be a Silver-level Reward Mission Card.
Guo Hao now understood that the reward missions given by this System were all just for cultivating him; the requirements wouldn't be very high, but the rewards were exceptionally generous.
With anticipation, Guo Hao clicked on the Silver-level Mission Reward Card.
Aside from the main mission, Guo Hao hadn't done a System mission for a long time.
Damn, this main mission is too Pit.
Ever since entering university, he had to constantly read books.
A hundred books!
This damn thing isn't a novel, but proper academic monographs with specific requirements. Even with Guo Hao's IQ above 240, and his Lv5 Mathematics and Lv4 Physics levels, his comprehension ability when reading these books far exceeded that of ordinary people.
Even so, the speed at which Guo Hao read these books couldn't be too fast.
At most, it was just one book every two or three days. If he encountered a bulky one like Computational Materials Science, it would take even longer.
As for wanting to speed-read?
The System wouldn't give you such an obvious loophole to exploit.
The System was very strict about the definition of completing the learning; this was determined by the System, not by Guo Hao himself.
Just as Guo Hao was thinking.
A light blue screen appeared before him.
"Silver-level Optional Mission Card activated. Host, please choose one mission to complete and receive rewards."
"Optional Mission One: The Path Every Academic Great Must Take! To become a truly influential scholar, writing books and establishing theories is a necessary process. Mission Content: Publish an academic monograph. Mission Reward: Gain subject rewards corresponding to the academic monograph's content. Subject experience reward depends on the academic monograph's academic influence. Random Draw * 2."
"Optional Mission Two: Human infants are the continuation of humanity's future, and also the continuation of the user's dreams. Mission Content: Continue the family line, give birth to a human infant, and nurture them (Consecutive mission, subsequent missions will unlock when the infant reaches certain age stages). Mission Reward: 60,000 Free Experience, Random Draw * 2."
"Optional Mission Three: A Milestone in Academic Career! Participate in a top-tier competition and win three or more gold medals! Mission Reward: Corresponding subject rewards + ???? (Determined based on the final result), Random Draw + 2!"
Guo Hao looked at the three optional missions in front of him with a bewildered expression.
His eyes were full of confusion.
Where am I? Who am I?
What kind of trash System is this???
After being speechless for a while, Guo Hao directly rolled his eyes.
The first two missions, writing books and establishing theories, could barely be considered reliable, but is this damn thing really reliable?
He knew his own level. If he really wanted to write books and establish theories, it wasn't impossible, but... he wasn't qualified yet!
At least wait another three to five years!
Otherwise, it would be too strange.
A student who just started freshman year is in a hurry to write books and establish theories?
And it's an academic monograph?
His own influence isn't enough either!
As for the second mission, it made Guo Hao even more speechless.
Did this broken System detect that the feelings between him and Shen Luoyan were warming up?
It actually started giving missions for him to make a baby, even calling it something nice like "Human infants are the continuation of humanity."
Damn it, please, he's still in freshman year!
Leaving aside whether Shen Luoyan was willing to cooperate, Guo Hao himself didn't want to have a child so early!
His academic career had just begun!
Does he have to become a dad so early?
Thinking about it, it's impossible, right?!
Thankfully, the third mission was still somewhat normal, otherwise Guo Hao would really be swearing.
Without the slightest hesitation, Guo Hao directly chose Mission Three.
Just right, Professor Huang asked him to participate in the Qiu Chengtong College Student Mathematics Competition. The standard of this competition should be sufficient.
After choosing, the System mission interface automatically closed.
Thankfully, the System gave him a mission he could choose. If they were all missions like having a child, Guo Hao would truly be speechless.
However, it seems he really has to get some results in this Qiu Chengtong College Student Mathematics Competition.
He must get three or more gold medals to complete the mission.
Thinking of this, Guo Hao felt slightly helpless.
He closed the System's light screen.
Guo Hao opened his computer and started searching for the Qiu Chengtong College Student Mathematics Competition.
Soon, Guo Hao found the past competition questions.
Actually, the Qiu Chengtong College Student Mathematics Competition hadn't been initiated long ago. It was a Mathematics competition award initiated by the elder Mr. Shing-Tung Yau in 2010, aimed at comprehensively testing college students' Mathematics knowledge, cultivation, and ability, and promoting the reform of university Mathematics education in Dragon Country.
Next year, which is 2013, will be the fourth Qiu Competition.
Guo Hao roughly understood the direction of this competition.
It mainly tests students in five areas: "Analysis and Differential Equations", "Geometry and Topology", "Algebra, Combinatorics, and Number Theory", "Applied Mathematics and Computational Mathematics", and "Probability and Statistics".
After reading, Guo Hao felt much more relaxed.
Analysis and Differential Equations goes without saying, this was already Guo Hao's area of expertise, and Applied Mathematics and Computational Mathematics even more so.
As for Probability and Statistics, Guo Hao was even better at it!
It could be said that these five directions were all key areas of Guo Hao's studies.
