Chapter 11 The world is so big, I want to see it
“You also know your grades.”
Lao Zhang lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth and took two puffs, Then he blew out smoke rings and said, "To put it nicely, your results are very stable, very stable."
"But to put it harshly, the upper limit has been blocked, and it is difficult to have any room for breakthrough." "
"So I don't know whether I should praise you for being steady or scold you for not wanting to make progress."
Jiang Chen quickly spread his hands, "Old Zhang, you are. You know me, I haven’t been fooling around during this period, but science and technology really requires talent. Didn’t Xie Shiying always help me with my chemistry and biology lessons? After the results of the last round of mock exams came out, she was so angry that she said: I broke up our relationship."
Lao Zhang raised his hand.
stopped him, "Listen to me first."
"You have really worked hard during this period, and I can see it, teacher."
" The reason why I called you here is not to criticize you, because you are right, science is really talented.”
"I want to talk to you about Air Force recruitment and hear your thoughts."
"You also know that the major colleges and universities in the Air Force have been very popular in the past two years. The admissions last year and the year before that The score is a hundred points higher than the first line. Even in 2010, the minimum admission score of major air force academies was 20 to 30 points higher than the first line."
"So, you. Do you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Chen nodded and said, "I understand, with my current scores, it will be impossible to get admitted to the Air Force Academy."
"There is no need to be so pessimistic." Lao Zhang comforted him, "What if a miracle happens."
"However, the college entrance examination is the first major turning point in all of our lives. If we blindly believe in miracles, it will not be good for us. Is your life a bit of a joke? ”
“The teacher doesn’t want to stop you from taking the re-election. Your scores in every simulation test were around the first line last year. You will take the college entrance examination this year. There is a high probability that you will do well in the previous one. Although you are a little naughty sometimes, you are still a kind and good child, so you are qualified to participate in the re-election in terms of grades and conduct.”
< br>"The school and I will not deprive you of the qualification to participate in the re-election."
"But I heard that the location of the re-election is not in Qianyang, but in Chengdu. Moreover, the re-election It only takes two or three days, plus running back and forth, a week is wasted.”
“Now there are only about seventy or eighty days before the college entrance examination, and it was wasted because of an impossible miracle. I don’t think it’s worth a week’s precious time.”
"So, my suggestion is not to participate in this re-election. It would be good to leave some more time to review. You have a military dream teacher who is very supportive, and with your current results, you should be able to reach one or two universities with hard work. The minimum admission score for the military academy. "
"Wouldn't it be possible to realize your dream if you are admitted to the military academy?"
After Lao Zhang said these heartfelt words, he quickly said He threw the cigarette butt that had almost burned his fingers on the ground, stamped it out with his foot, and then looked up at Jiang Chen, "The teacher has finished speaking, tell me what you think."
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment.
Look up.
Meet Lao Zhang’s gaze.
The expression also became dignified and serious.
"Teacher, the world is so big, I want to see it."
"What?" Lao Zhang frowned.
"What I mean is, whether I pass this round of re-selection or not, whether my scores after the college entrance examination can meet the minimum admission score of each Air Force University, I want to try this time."
"You will not regret whether you have worked hard or succeeded, but if you give up and are timid due to other factors, will you regret it for the rest of your life?"
"And even if the final result is not satisfactory, If it is what you want, then I have participated in it and experienced it.”
“Isn’t life just a process of trial and error?”
“You have to keep trying. You will know whether the result is right or wrong, and whether it is worth it.”
“You are right.”
Lao Zhang was slightly stunned.
He never imagined that Jiang Chen, who usually had a playful smile and liked to do things funny, actually had a serious side.
And he can also say such a meaningful truth.
Even for a moment. Lao Zhang felt that the person sitting opposite him and talking to him was a man in his thirties with rich experience.
Not a kid who's not even 18 yet.
Ugh!
Lao Zhang’s feeling is correct.
The man sitting opposite him is indeed almost thirty years old.
He was silent for a long time.
Finally said, "I'm not surprised that you would reject my suggestion. After all, if I had such an opportunity at your age, I wouldn't give up at all."
"I'm surprised that you think so thoroughly and have such mature ideas."
"In this case, teacher, I don't want to be a 'villain'. You are right, we in Luzhou are a Small places, the reason why people from small places tend to feel inferior is that they don’t have enough knowledge.”
“Now that you have the opportunity to go out and learn a lot, go for it!”
Jiang! Chen's expression relaxed.
Sit and stretch your hips.
Restored his usual playful smile, "Yeah, I also think I'm quite mature. Don't worry, Lao Zhang, I will definitely bring you a gift when I come back."
Lao Zhang She rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Bring a shitty gift, all beards and tails. Coming back safely is the biggest gift you can give me."
Finished.
He dug around himself and took out his wallet.
Took out two hundred-dollar bills and handed them to Jiang Chen, and said, "Teacher, I also have to support my family. It's not easy to hide some private money. Don't be too little."
Jiang Chen was stunned.
I quickly declined and said, "Lao Zhang, what are you doing? I have money."
"You have so much money." Lao Zhang said angrily, "I don't have it yet. Do you know? When you came back from Qianyang last year, did you eat instant noodles for two or three days? I know your dad has a job, but the burden is quite heavy. This time they only give you six to seven hundred yuan for living expenses. I will also give you money, but you will have more money if you have one or two hundred more.”
“We are going back to a real big city, so don’t wrong yourself.”
Jiang Chen was stunned.
"Old Zhang, you"
"Take it if I ask you to." Lao Zhang directly stuffed the money into his arms.
Then he waved his hand like he was shooing away flies, "Class will start soon, go to class, go to class."
Jiang Chen had no choice but to put the two hundred dollars in his pocket.
At the same time, I secretly made up my mind.
This favor.
We will have to pay it back in the future!
"Oh, by the way, meet at the school gate at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. A teacher from the Education Bureau will take you to Qianyang. After meeting in Qianyang, we will take a bus to Chengdu together." Lao Zhang said again, "You Don't fall asleep and be unable to get up."
"In your eyes, am I so unreliable?" Jiang Chen's face was full of black lines.
Lao Zhang said angrily, "You just know that you are unreliable."
"Hey, that's right." Jiang Chen suddenly asked, "I don't need to go to the principal's office to meet the leader or something?"
“What the hell.” Lao Zhang said, “I have reached an agreement with you. Just tell them about your grades and daily performance. Class will start soon. Are you looking for an opportunity again? Skipping class?”
“I’m not, I didn’t, don’t talk nonsense.” Jiang Chen quickly denied it.
“Then why are you still here, why don’t you go to class?”
Jiang Chen immediately ‘ran away’.
