As he watched his wife and daughter's shocked expressions, Jiang Zemin laughed heartily. The sense of satisfaction and pride was as if he himself were the genius. Then he continued to explain to his wife and daughter, "There's one more difficult one. This is to test Zhihao's programming skills. Only someone who can combine computational ability, analytical ability, and programming skills can become a teacher. Otherwise, it wouldn't be perfect!"
After laughing and explaining to his wife and daughter, Jiang Zemin smiled at Park Jihao and said, "Zhihao, listen carefully to the last question. A group of people are at a dance party, each wearing a hat. The hats are either black or white, and there is at least one black hat. Everyone can see the color of others' hats but not their own. The host first lets everyone see what kind of hats others are wearing, then turns off the lights. If anyone thinks they are wearing a black hat, they should slap themselves. The first time the lights are turned off, there is no sound. So the lights are turned on again, and everyone looks again. When the lights are turned off, it is still silent. It's not until the third time the lights are turned off that the sound of slaps can be heard. How many people are wearing black hats?"
As soon as Jiang Zemin finished reading the question, his wife immediately said excitedly, "Zhihao's ears are moving again; he's thinking!" This excitement was genuine, and now Jiang Zemin's wife truly admired Park Jihao!
Sure enough, after more than a minute, Park Jihao's ears stopped moving, and he ate a grape before saying, "The answer is that three people are wearing black hats. If there are N people wearing black hats, when N=1, the person wearing the black hat would see everyone else wearing white hats and be sure they are wearing a black hat. So, the first time the lights are turned off, there should be a sound. Therefore, we can conclude that N>1. For each person wearing a black hat, they can see N-1 black hats and assume they are wearing a white hat. But after N-1 times with no one slapping themselves, each person wearing a black hat realizes they are also wearing a black hat. So, on the Nth time the lights are turned off, N people will slap themselves."
Park Jihao smiled as he gave the answer and then explained the process. Honestly, Jiang Zemin's family didn't understand a thing, but the answer matched the one copied from the internet, which proved that Park Jihao was correct!
Seeing Park Jihao still watching TV, Jiang Zhiying immediately became the first to lose her composure. She immediately walked over to Park Jihao, sat next to him, and looked at him with admiration, saying, "Zhihao oppa, why are you so smart?"
Even Jiang Zemin's wife immediately pushed her husband aside and looked at Park Jihao with surprise, saying, "Yes, Zhihao, how can you be so smart? Those people are really a bunch of animals. If it weren't for them, you wouldn't have wasted six years!" Park Jihao's genius had made Jiang Zemin's wife see him as her own nephew, so due to the role change, she also harbored deep hatred for those who had sold children's organs and were killed by Park Jihao.
However, Jiang Zemin nudged his wife and warned her in a low voice, "I told you, don't say that. Zhiying is still here!"
"Oh... oh... ha ha!" Jiang Zemin's wife laughed and said, "I was just concerned about Zhihao. I won't say it anymore. I'll go get the Häagen-Dazs I bought last time. Zhihao used his brain, so he needs to replenish his sugar!" With that, she immediately ran to the kitchen!
Park Jihao was a bit at a loss with the sudden enthusiasm of Jiang Zhiying and her mother. Honestly, he had answered the question subconsciously, and his attention was always on "Family Outing." This shows that although Park Jihao is a genius, six years in prison have made his emotional intelligence a bit slow, but not to the point of being a fool!
Soon, Park Jihao adapted to Jiang Zhiying and talked about many things that interested her. Park Jihao's six years in prison had both good and bad aspects. The bad part was that he was somewhat disconnected from society, but the good part was that he could focus on intense learning in prison. With his IQ of 150, although he couldn't remember everything he read, he could remember the key points. Therefore, he could quickly absorb knowledge. In six years, he read almost a thousand books on various topics. So, he could explain the things Jiang Zhiying liked more accurately and systematically than Jiang Zhi, which made Jiang Zhiying admire him even more!
After "Family Outing" ended, Park Jihao and Jiang Zhiying went to her room. This was the first time Park Jihao entered a girl's room, and it was a female idol's room at that. The room wasn't very large, but as soon as he entered, he could smell a pleasant scent, the same as Jiang Zhiying's. The scent was very intoxicating, but in Park Jihao's heart, it was only the second-best; the best was the scent on her body!
A dreamy pink room, a princess's room—this was Park Jihao's evaluation of Jiang Zhiying's room. However, Park Jihao didn't linger too long in the room. He knew he was there to assess Jiang Zhiying's knowledge level!
He spent twenty minutes reviewing what Jiang Zhiying was currently studying and then listed thirty questions to assess her knowledge. This would help Park Jihao understand Jiang Zhiying's current knowledge base and plan her tutoring more effectively.
While Jiang Zhiying was answering the questions, Park Jihao sat quietly on the side. This was his responsibility as a teacher. Jiang Zhiying took an hour to finish the questions, and Park Jihao quickly graded them, immediately explaining where she went wrong in a way that was easy to understand. Jiang Zhiying benefited greatly from this and respected Park Jihao even more. After grading, Park Jihao took Jiang Zhiying out of the room and told Jiang Zemin and his wife that Jiang Zhiying's grasp of knowledge was above average. If she listened to him well, she should be able to get into Sungkyunkwan University for the college entrance exam!
"Sungkyunkwan...?" Upon hearing Park Jihao's assurance, Jiang Zemin's wife covered her mouth in shock, even more shocked and excited than before. The mother's greatest love was not for herself, but for her daughter. Sungkyunkwan University is a prestigious institution with over 600 years of glorious history. As one of the most influential universities in Korea, Sungkyunkwan has made significant contributions to various aspects of Korean society. From the creation of the Korean language to the spread of Confucian thought, Sungkyunkwan has interpreted modern Korean social philosophy in its unique way. "Sung" means to nurture talent, and "Kyun" means to harmonize customs.
Therefore, Park Jihao's assurance of getting into Sungkyunkwan almost made Jiang Zemin's wife ecstatic. She immediately grabbed Park Jihao's hand and said, "Zhihao, I entrust Zhiying to you. As long as your method can get Zhiying into Sungkyunkwan University, you can even beat her to a pulp, and we will agree. If she dares to resist you, Zhihao, just tell me, and I will fight her. So, Zhihao, Auntie relies on you!"
Held tightly by Jiang Zemin's wife, Park Jihao felt a bit awkward and smiled. What was this situation? She was ready to fight! He deeply regretted mentioning Sungkyunkwan University; his mouth was just too loose!
In the end, Jiang Zemin had to pull his wife away, or she would have immediately asked Park Jihao to start tutoring her daughter, preferably all night. The Koreans' desire for education was clearly visible on Jiang Zemin's wife's face, of course, also a form of maternal love!
