Let $n$ be a positive integer, $1<n<2018$. For each $i=1, 2, \ldots ,n$ we define the polynomial $S_i(x)=x^2-2018x+l_i$, where $l_1, l_2, \ldots, l_n$ are distinct positive integers. If the polynomial $S_1(x)+S_2(x)+\cdots+S_n(x)$ has at least an integer root, prove that at least one of the $l_i$ is greater or equal than $2018$.
