Chapter 12 Why is he a money addict?
After all, this was 2003, and the expansion of college enrollment had just started a few years ago. The number of graduate students admitted that year was just over 200,000, which was less than a fraction of the number admitted twenty years later. , the postgraduate entrance examination at that time was much more difficult than in the future, and the gold content of graduate students was also higher.
Not to mention a graduate student from Qingbei!
Hearing the conditions offered by Peking University to guarantee postgraduate study, Chen Guotai glared at Huang Anmin and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that if he wants to get a perfect score in the college entrance examination, Tsingta University will have to spend a lot of money.
Ordinary college students need to work very hard to secure a postgraduate entrance examination. However, for students from Qingbei, it is not difficult to secure a postgraduate entrance examination. It is a bit embarrassing to take the postgraduate entrance examination on your own.
But under normal circumstances, postgraduate qualifications are only available to juniors and seniors. If you can obtain postgraduate qualifications in your sophomore year, you are already the top student.
Now that Zhang Wei has not even gone to college, Peking University is willing to give away the postgraduate qualification, which is somewhat unruly.
“Since you Peking University don’t play by the rules, we at Tsingta University won’t be polite either!”
Thinking of this, Chen Guotai immediately said: “We at Tsingta University also have the quota for graduate students. Ah, not only postgraduate studies, but also direct PhD qualifications are available. "
"Is it the commonly mentioned master's degree and PhD program?" Cai Xin, the head teacher, asked this time. Tao, he has taught for more than ten years, but he has never taught a doctor.
"It's almost the same, but there are still some differences. For continuous master's and doctoral studies, you first study for a master's degree for one or two years, and then apply for a doctorate. A direct doctorate is to study for a doctorate directly, from the first to the fifth degree. Compared with the two, the threshold for direct doctorate is higher Higher." Chen Guotai explained simply.
The implication of Chen Guotai's words is that the conditions offered by our Tsinghua University are more favorable.
At this time, Zhang’s father and Zhang’s mother were so excited that their eyes were shining with gold!
In that era when undergraduates still had the right to choose a job, if a family had a master's degree, it would definitely be a matter of honor for the ancestors, and they would kneel in the front row when visiting graves during the New Year.
If you get a Ph.D., you will be known as a literary star and become famous in a county.
Realizing that Zhang’s father and Zhang’s mother were very attracted to Tsinghua University, Huang Anmin from Peking University quickly added; “The graduate students I am talking about are also doctoral students.
In addition, we can also provide Zhang Wei with Opportunities to study abroad. We at Peking University have quotas for international exchange students to go to top universities around the world, and they are publicly funded.”
“We also have the same program at Tsingta University. We need more cooperation with American universities, such as the famous MIT and Stanford University, which are our cooperation partners at Tsingta University," Chen Guotai introduced.
Tsinghua University is still slightly better in cooperation with top science and engineering schools.
The conditions offered by the admissions duo are very generous. In the eyes of Zhang’s father and Zhang’s mother, it is more like reaching the sky in one step. With the experience of these two ordinary people, they look completely at a loss. Know how to choose.
On the contrary, Zhang Wei smiled slightly and said: "Teachers, I have a question. I don't know whether to ask it or not."
"Zhang Wei, please speak!" Chen Guotai immediately showed that he was listening attentively. .
I am not afraid that you will have problems, but I am afraid that you will have no problems! If you have questions, at least it means you are interested. If there are no questions, then the enrollment will be half as bad.
Zhang Wei thought for three seconds and asked: "I would like to know, if I apply to your school, how much scholarship can you give me?"
"Scholarship?" Everyone present At the same time, he was stunned.
They didn't expect that the top scorer in the college entrance examination would actually ask about money. You are the top scorer in the college entrance examination! Shouldn’t we talk about life and ideals? Aren’t we supposed to be dreaming about a better future?
Even if you cannot contribute to human development and world peace, you must still have the lofty desire for the great rejuvenation of the nation, right?
But you are talking about money! How vulgar! Is it worthy of your status as the top scorer in the college entrance examination?
Principal Wang Chengen glanced at class teacher Cai Xin, as if asking, what is going on?
Cai Xin showed an innocent expression, meaning I don't know how this Zhang Wei is a money addict!
Director Wen of the Education Bureau subconsciously looked at the surrounding environment. Although the decoration was not fashionable, the room was clean. TV, refrigerator, and air conditioner were all available. It did not look like a poor family. ah!
The recruitment duo felt like they punched cotton in the face. I'm all ready to talk to you about world peace, but you ask me if I can add an egg to my fried rice tonight?
Zhang Wei looked at the admissions duo expectantly, waiting for their answers.
It’s good to make money, not shabby!
The air in the room seemed to freeze, until more than ten seconds later, Chen Guotai was the first to react
"It turns out that Zhang Wei is a money addict!" Thinking of this, Chen Guotai said: "If Zhang Wei applies for our exam If you go to Tsinghua University, in addition to being exempted from tuition, fees and accommodation fees, our Tsinghua University will also award Zhang Wei a scholarship of 200,000 yuan!”
Huang Anmin’s eyes widened when he heard the number “200,000 yuan”! The surprise flashed through him.
"According to past practice, isn't it 100,000 yuan? Why has the price increased? Should I follow?" Huang Anmin began to make calculations in his mind.
In 2003, there were no scholarships worth tens or even millions, and scholarships at public universities were not high to begin with. A scholarship of 100,000 yuan was already at the ceiling level.
A school like Qingbei does not rely on scholarships to recruit talents. If you can get into Qingbei, you don't have to worry about not being able to go to school.
Not to mention Qingbei, even if it is a 985-level college, if there is any poor student who cannot afford to go to a college because of lack of money, at least the education director of this county will have to suffer!
According to past practice, a scholarship of 100,000 yuan is already the best match for Tsing University. This is a treatment that can only be obtained by recruiting scientific research talents. Now in order to recruit Zhang Wei to Tsing University, Chen Guotai came directly. Super doubled, raising the scholarship to 200,000.
Huang Anmin looked across from him and saw that since Tsingta University was so ungrateful about martial ethics, he didn’t have to worry about it. As the director of the Admissions Office of Peking University, he still had the authority to pay 100,000 yuan.
So Chen Guotai immediately said; "We at Peking University can also provide the same conditions."
"Two hundred thousand, more than I thought!" Zhang Wei nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Principal Wang and asked:
"Principal, our school targets students with excellent scores in the college entrance examination. , Is there a scholarship?”
“What do you mean, are you asking for money?” Wang Chengen’s expression tightened.
Cai Xin finally couldn't help it anymore, he said a little seriously; "Zhang Wei, the school has trained you, you have to thank the school, how can you ask the principal for a scholarship!"
Wang Chengen, however Decided to compromise with the financial fans: "Of course there are scholarships. The school will also award Zhang Wei a scholarship of 200,000 yuan. The school will also hold an award ceremony for Zhang Wei later!"
Cai Xin was suddenly surprised: "Principal Wang is usually so stingy that the teacher has to use the chalk tip to exchange for new chalk. Why is he so generous today? Just give him 200,000 yuan?"
Wang Chengen is With a smile on his face, he had already begun to make a calculation in his mind. There was a top scorer in the college entrance examination in the school. This year's school selection fee would be doubled. Isn't there anything wrong with that? Spend 200,000 yuan and receive several million more in school selection fees. What a bargain!
"Thank you, principal, thank you to the school!" After Zhang Wei said this, he turned his eyes to Director Wen of the Education Bureau.
Feeling Zhang Wei's hot eyes, Director Wen immediately understood. This child was clearly fighting against the autumn wind. He was bleeding in high school and college. Now it's the Education Bureau's turn!
We just met for the first time today. Should we cultivate our relationship first and then talk about money directly?
Dear friends, don’t forget to add it to your collection. Thank you for passing the test!
