Chapter 79: An Exclusive Interview with Clear Love and Hate
The next day, during the interview, Xia Keke was far more interested in Qiao Yu than Qiao Yu.
He ran down early in the morning as always. Not only did he bring breakfast to Qiao Yu, but he and Qiao Xi also struggled with what clothes Qiao Yu should wear today.
This moment made Qiao Yu feel very angry.
“I said you really don’t need to go to military training today? Are Changjun Middle School’s requirements for military training so lax?”
"My mom took a day off for me, so I don't have to go today. You don't understand girls' things! Hey, I think this white T-shirt is a little too big, right? It's baggy on my body, and I look very lethargic, and It’s not too formal.”
“Well, yes, let Qiao Yu try this shirt. I think it looks good with a pair of trousers, but Qiao Yu doesn’t seem to have leather shoes.”
"I can give you leather shoes next time." He bought it, but this kind of plaid shirt is very strange. People on the Internet say that it is only worn by programmers.” I have to choose my own clothes.”
“There aren’t many clothes for boys to wear in summer. Brother, why don’t you try this cotton T-shirt? Jeans are okay too.”
"Hmm... Coco, I think this set is a bit more casual, right?"
"That's right, and..."
...
I changed to three sets in a row. After taking off his clothes, Qiao Yu finally couldn't help it anymore, slapped his forehead and said, "Yeah, I almost forgot. Yesterday, Principal Zhang asked me to wear a school uniform today, saying that it could help the school promote it. "Oh? Really?" Xia Keke looked at Qiao Yu suspiciously. One glance: "Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
Qiao Yuyi said sternly: "They say I forgot. I was so excited yesterday. The principal called and said a few words before hanging up. How could I remember? I just tried on several sets of clothes before I remembered."
Qiao Xi glanced at Qiao Yu with a half-smile, and simply put down the two pieces of clothing in her hands: " Oh, then you can wear a school uniform, it's cool and refreshing. Anyway, if he goes to military training, he has to wear a school uniform."
Xia Keke was a little regretful that he could treat Qiao Yu like a doll so openly. The opportunity to dress up was really rare, and it was such a pity that it was suddenly interrupted.
It’s very annoying, the principal is too busy.
Qiao Yu could also breathe a sigh of relief. He was really too lazy to waste time on dressing up.
Why does he, a junior high school student, dress up so fancy?
This morning he specially washed his face with soap, which was delicate enough.
Well, this is probably why Qiao Xi has always suspected that her son's hormones have stopped secreting.
Who is a fifteen-year-old boy who doesn’t like to be pretty?
……
Xingcheng Railway No. 1 Middle School.
Zhang Tiejun has been waiting at the school gate for about ten minutes under the bright sun.
The fifty-year-old security guard at the door felt uncomfortable talking to him. After all, it was summer, and the security guard wanted to stay in the security room and blow on the air conditioner.
Fortunately, Qiao Yu's figure finally appeared in sight.
The boy was full of energy, especially the Tie No. 1 Middle School emblem printed on the blue and white striped T-shirt, which made Principal Zhang's lips curl up subconsciously.
It's rare that this guy has a heart.
Yesterday he didn't mention what clothes to wear at all. No matter why Qiao Yu chose the school uniform, Zhang Tiejun felt very relieved. It was right to let Teacher Lan follow this boy for this period of time. This choice showed a certain sense of humanity.
"Hello, Principal Zhang, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
"No, no, I just came. Come on, Qiao Yu, follow me in."
Before taking Qiao Yu into the school, Zhang Tie Jun did not forget to say hello to the security guard at the door: "Lao Lu, thank you for your hard work. By the way, if a reporter Zhang who calls himself Morning News comes later, just let him come in directly. He has been here before and knows about my office. .”
"Okay, Principal Zhang, goodbye." The security guard looked at the young man following the principal and raised his hand in confusion to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
See you soon.
Although it was not the first time to see the principal standing at the school gate in such a hot weather, waiting for someone, but it was the first time to wait for a student.
Children of the leader’s family?
That’s not right either!
How is it possible for a leader’s child to attend Tie No. 1 Middle School?
Weird!
But soon, someone came to clear up the security guard’s confusion.
As soon as Principal Zhang and Qiao Yu entered the school, the director of the school office led two people to the school gate from outside.
Soon, a long red banner was hung above the turnstile at the school gate.
That is to say, the gate of Tieyi Middle School is quite impressive, but in other schools where the gate is too narrow, such a long banner may not be able to be hung.
"Congratulations to Qiao Yu, a freshman in high school in our school, for winning the gold medal in the algebra and number theory group of the Little Libaba International Mathematics Competition!"
After hanging up, Director Fan still stood at the school gate with a smile. I took out my phone and took several photos in succession.
The security guard couldn't help but leaned over and asked: "Director Fan, this award is probably very powerful, right?"
"Haha, Lao Lu, let's decide first whether it is powerful or not. . But since the competition was launched, not to mention all the high schools in Star City, this gold medal is the only one. Do you think it is worth celebrating?"
"Hey, that's really worth celebrating. Our middle school has such an amazing student?"
"Haha, Lao Lu, so things are changing. As long as you run a school carefully, there will always be surprises. Surprised. Okay, I'll go back and resume my life first. There will be a press conference later..."
"Principal Zhang has already explained that he personally waited at the door for a long time today just to pick up this student." The security guard looked at the banner on the banner with admiration. Name, the joy of being taught by Director Fan was a little bit sad.
It would be even more perfect if the banner had his grandson’s name on it and the principal was personally waiting for him at the school gate.
What a pity, his grandson has just entered kindergarten. But we have to start grasping the culture.
He must ask his son to quickly buy some mathematics enlightenment books for the baby, the security guard thought to himself.
......
"Qiao Yu, our school was very lively yesterday. There were many media who wanted to interview you, and they all came to the school first. What do you think?"
On the way back to the office, Zhang Tiejun used every opportunity to probe into Qiao Yu's thoughts.
Precocious children are usually more assertive, especially at the age of fifteen. Making decisions under the pretext of being good for him, regardless of whether it is in line with the child's wishes, will lead to complaints. It is better to seek advice first and provide appropriate guidance.
This is the importance of strong business capabilities.
Zhang Tiejun was originally a teacher in his early years. He worked steadily and steadily, working his way up from deputy director, director, and vice principal, before slowly rising to the position of principal. It's just that the previous upgrades are not just in Tieyizhong.
But having dealt with students all year round, the grasp of students' psychology is naturally more accurate than that of the kind of principal who is transferred to the school from the department leader of the superior department.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the difference between the two types of principals cannot be seen in the short term.
After all, the principal’s job is to grasp the general direction and rarely deal with a specific student. But when it comes to implementing some specific details, there are actually differences. For example, understanding of the general direction of education, specific requirements for teachers, etc...
The school obviously spends a lot of effort in training, but there are not a few outstanding graduates who make crazy complaints about the school after graduation. In many cases, it is really because the principal does not have strong educational capabilities.
Especially when facing special students like Qiao Yu, a principal with rich educational experience like Zhang Tiejun is naturally more comfortable.
Qiao Yu, who was walking next to Zhang Tiejun, was looking at the playground. Rows of freshmen in the first year of junior high school and the first year of high school were forming square formations in class units under the scorching sun. Originally he should have been one of them.
But there is no way, there is an interview task today, and the principal personally said on the phone that he does not need military training and is forced to be lazy.
Hearing what Principal Zhang said, Qiao Yu withdrew his gaze and then replied: "How about the school help me screen them. There are too many messy interviews. I think it is a waste of time."
If it had been before Xue Song called him yesterday, Qiao Yu really didn't think it would be a waste of time to accept a few interviews.
But now his mind has changed slightly.
Although it is not a bad thing to become famous first, becoming famous online is very mysterious and usually happens one after another.
He still has two important tasks to do next, so there is no need to maintain his presence all the time.
Zhang Tiejun immediately echoed: "Yes, I think so too. Although from the school level, large-scale publicity is definitely better. But you are still a student, and too high exposure is not good for you. Not necessarily a good thing.
Especially now that there is a mixed bag of people on the Internet, don’t focus on it. Moderate exposure is fine. Your future is still very long, and your current achievements are just a starting point. Don't be too disturbed by external information. "
"It's all up to you, principal. " Qiao Yu replied with a smile.
"By the way, the reporter from Morning News told me this morning that the new media department of Morning News also received an interview assignment, so this time there will be cameras accompanying us. But don’t be nervous about it later. It's not a live broadcast, it's just shooting some material for the new media department.
The material will be edited before being put on the short video platforms on the Internet. He sent me some of the questions he prepared today. You can take a look at them when you get to the office later and think about how to answer them. "Zhang Tiejun dropped another piece of news that Qiao Yu didn't expect.
"Uh? Doesn’t that mean I have to appear on camera? I thought I would just take two photos. "This news was a bit unexpected.
"Haha, what are you afraid of? A handsome young man should appear more often. I just saw that the questions asked by reporters are quite satisfactory. When you answer, just tell the truth according to your own ideas. Don't be afraid to poke trouble. Anyway, I'm here Help you carry it!" Zhang Tiejun laughed and patted Qiao Yu on the shoulder.
... Zhang Tiejun made an appointment with the reporter from the Morning News at half past nine, but this time he met reporter Zhang Qiao, who was responsible for the interview, and the cameraman also arrived at the principal's office of Tieyi Middle School fifteen minutes early.
Both parties made brief introductions.
The reporter responsible for interviewing Qiao Yu and Zhang Tiejun this time is also named Zhang Zhen. According to Principal Zhang, he is a senior reporter from Star City Morning News. This reporter is mainly responsible for the current affairs and social news section of the newspaper. .
The eldest brother in charge of photography is named Gu. He is obviously a technical talent and doesn't talk much.
While the three of them were still chatting, the cameraman began to adjust the equipment in the office.
Reporter Zhang took this time to sit on the guest sofa in the office with Zhang Tiejun and Qiao Yu, and started chatting with Qiao Yu.
Commonly used routines for exclusive interviews in front of the camera.
The interviewer first chats with the interviewee about daily life and communicates a few questions that will be asked later, so that the interviewee can completely relax and the effect of the captured material will naturally be better.
It doesn't matter if you just write an exclusive interview, after all, it's the pen that makes it work. But it would be boring if the video material was shot and the interviewees were so nervous as if they were memorizing a script when answering questions.
It can be seen from this that senior journalists in print media these days are also required to be involved in various businesses. Although the task was temporarily added, Zhang Zhen handled it with ease.
Obviously this is not the first time for an exclusive interview in front of the camera.
Qiao Yu also performed perfectly. Even if the camera was pointed at him, he didn't feel nervous at all.
The three of them chatted together for about five minutes, and the cameraman opposite made an OK gesture.
"Qiao Yu, we will officially start now."
"Okay."
Zhang Zhen sat upright and said: "Congratulations, classmate Qiao Yu, for winning the junior high school diploma." Good results in the algebra and number theory group of the Libaba Mathematics Competition. When did you discover that you were talented in mathematics? "
"I didn't discover this myself. I have to thank our school. Teacher Lan Jie . Originally I had no interest in mathematics, but by chance, Teacher Lan discovered that I was very talented in solving Olympiad questions, and he began to tutor me carefully.
Yes, he. They also gave me two monographs on mathematics, which inspired me a lot and made me very interested in mathematics, specifically algebraic number theory, especially the distribution of prime numbers..."
Qiao Yu talked casually.
Principal Zhang had just shown him what questions the reporter would ask and let him use them as he pleased.
Of course Qiao Yu wouldn't mind bragging about this kind of opportunity.
“So this is your first time participating in Little Libaba’s math competition, right?”
“Yes.”
"This is the first time I participated in this kind of competition and I won the gold medal. And we have confirmed that the two silver medal winners in the algebra and number theory track are one who is a master's student at MIT and the other is a master's student at MIT. Most of the other winners are undergraduates from well-known universities, so are you surprised by this ranking?” I felt that the questions in this year’s finals were actually quite simple. When I was doing the questions, I also wondered whether everyone would get a gold medal with perfect scores this year. The bonus promised by the Little Libaba Group was not enough. Thinking that I am the only one who will win the gold medal.”
Qiao Yu really opened his mouth to ask such a no-brainer question, because that’s what he really thought at the time.
And Principal Zhang also said just now that if he was asked to tell the truth, there would be no scruples.
This answer also made Zhang Zhen, a senior reporter, couldn't help but smile.
My colleagues in New Media will definitely be happy now. Such an honest answer must have gained traffic! KPIs are awesome!
Originally, the new media did not want him to send all the interview questions to Principal Zhang first, because they were afraid that the school would temporarily teach Qiao Yu how to answer. In the end, it would be meaningless to come back with some rigid material, but he was Zhang Zhen refused directly.
This interview is about his connections. If the new media department is happy to have such a sudden attack and has good material, then who does it matter to him? His task was to publish an exclusive interview. No matter what Qiao Yu said, it would all be polished with his pen in the end. The target audience was not ordinary people who watched short videos, so there was no need for eye-catching answers.
Who would have thought that Xingtie No. 1 Middle School would really take an unusual path. This obviously meant that Qiao Yu was not asked to answer at all.
Maybe Qiao Yu also realized that just telling the truth would be a bit hurtful, so he added: "Of course because I was invited to Xiaohu University to participate in the finals, that kind of environment It is easier to calm down and answer the questions.
If you are at home and choose to answer questions for eight consecutive hours according to the requirements of the competition system, you may be interrupted and delayed for one reason or another. So I was lucky enough to get first place, right? ”
The patching is quite good, but Zhang Zhen feels that colleagues in the new media department will definitely edit out Qiao Yu’s added words when they release the video.
There is no way. The most emphasis on KPI in the entire newspaper is probably the new media area, and traffic is very obvious, so there is no way. Law.
This sudden modesty will not easily cause controversy.
Zhang Zhen was still lamenting about how to edit. Qiao Yu paused and suddenly added: " But the two people from MIT behind me, well, how can I put it, I think it may be a true reflection of the mathematics level of MIT. It's not bad for them to get a silver medal. ”
This sentence was something Zhang Zhen never expected. Was he directly dissing Massachusetts?
Colleagues in new media may be struggling again. Should this be edited or not?
Zhang Zhen subconsciously glanced at Zhang Tiejun next to him. What he didn't expect was that the principal was sitting there as steady as an old dog.
My dear, Tie Yizhong is really taking an unusual path.
“Well, student Qiao Yu, do you have some different thoughts or opinions on the mathematics level of MIT? After all, MIT is a world-famous university. Although it is not an Ivy League university, it almost has It has the same level and reputation as an Ivy League school.”
"Eh? Isn't this a preset question?" Qiao Yu asked strangely.
"Don't worry, the final presentation of our interview will be in text form. As for the recorded material, it will be edited. It doesn't matter if you don't want to answer." Zhang Zhen replied immediately.
“Oh, it’s okay, I just asked casually. In fact, it’s mainly because I often read textbooks and class videos from different universities online, and then compare them when summarizing.
Don’t I don’t know much about the subject, but I personally think that MIT’s mathematics is definitely not as good as Harvard’s, nor is it comparable to that of Yanbei University and Huaqing University in China.”
Qiao Yu said seriously.
Although there was nothing he could do about a certain man for the time being, Qiao Yu had no psychological burden at all by making casual remarks about that man's alma mater.
It’s not his alma mater anyway, so he hates Wujiwu.
"Then do you know Zhang Yuanyang? He once had a Ph.D. from MIT. After returning to China, he founded Fox.com, which can be regarded as one of China's Internet business leaders."
Unknowingly, Zhang Zhen’s interview has seriously deviated from the preset track.
“Of course I have heard of it. So I say that choosing the wrong school does have a great impact on life. You see, people get better and better after becoming Internet business leaders, but Hu.com has been doing better for so many years. It's obviously getting worse.
If he had studied at Harvard, Shencheng University, or Jiangsu University for a Ph.D., the current Fox Net might be even more powerful than major Internet companies like Penguin Group and Rice Company! ”
Qiao Yu boasted without any stage fright.
Zhang Zhen subconsciously glanced at Zhang Tiejun next to him and found that the principal was also staring at Qiao Yu with a question mark on his face.
Well, it’s finally not so stable.
When Principal Zhang couldn’t help but look at him, Zhang Zhen finally returned to his rhythm: “Apart from what I just said, what do you think about mathematics? Is there anyone else who has helped you along the way that you would like to thank? ”
"Well, yes. For example, our school and Principal Zhang have been very helpful to me. The school has helped me solve many practical difficulties, so that I can focus on my studies. Especially when I am a sophomore in junior high school. Even though I failed in the high school entrance examination, I still didn’t give up.
In addition, I would also like to thank a forum called Algebraic Number Theory Decimal Room. The netizens in this forum are not only very good at mathematics, but also very knowledgeable and give suggestions. It's also very pleasant to listen to.
Especially when I'm having trouble. They encouraged me in various ways and supported me in solving difficult problems one after another, which greatly improved my algebra and number theory.
By the way, after I successfully won the gold medal, they They also celebrated me in a very special way, which made me fully feel Learning mathematics is really a joy, so I am very grateful to them.”
Qiao Yu mentioned the algebraic number theory decimal room but did not mention Xue Song, mainly because Xue Song was here this time. One of the members of the marking expert team of the algebra and number theory group of Little Libaba Mathematics Competition.
He is not afraid of being criticized because he went through the back door.
After all, he was attending the finals at the headquarters of Xiaohu University. There were no surveillance blind spots in the specially arranged examination room, and everyone answered the questions online, so everything was traceable.
But Qiao Yu is also very aware of the diversity of species on the Internet. Many people don't care about the truth at all and will only believe what they believe.
Especially when he just made a lot of outrageous remarks, he didn't want to cause any trouble to Teacher Xue, who had given him a new level of knowledge.
But Qiao Yu believed what he said. If Teacher Xue accidentally saw it, he would definitely understand it.
Some words just come to your mind.
“Speaking of your high school entrance examination results, well, this is also a question that I am personally very curious about. Your scores in the main subjects are all very good, and you even got perfect scores in six subjects. Why did you Will my grades in geography and geography be unsatisfactory?”
Zhang Zhen is really curious about this question.
After getting Qiao Yu's information yesterday, the score left him scratching his head.
“It can only be said that I was not very sensible when I was in the second grade of junior high school and did not realize the importance of learning. So I would like to express my special thanks to the school and Teacher Lan for their help.”
"That's it. Okay, do you have anything else you'd like to add at the end?"
"Well, anything is fine?"
"Yes, anything you want to say is fine. . ”
“Only yesterday I saw that many people had changed their names to Xingcheng Qiao Yu. To clarify, those are not me. Although I also have a D-sound number, my name is just a number added by the user. Well, this sentence must be broadcast for me. Go! ”
Thanks to book friends phoenixv and Long Tianbu for their rewards and encouragement.
PS: Some book friends suggested that I update a chapter of 10,000 words every day, which makes it more enjoyable to read. Ask for your opinions. If everyone thinks this is better, I will merge the two chapters into one and post it in the morning.
