Chapter 241 Accident
After exchanging a few New Year greetings with Zhang Wanli, Qin Shaoyan hung up the phone and began to think about it.
Zhang Wanli's text message to him must have been purely accidental. He may have seen Qin Shaoyan's name while flipping through his address book and sent him a text message.
But after Qin Shaoyan called Zhang Wanli, he suddenly mentioned the "International College Summer Camp".
This was not said casually, but specifically to Qin Shaoyan.
Maybe someone accidentally mentioned this matter to him, or maybe someone found Zhang Wanli through connections, but Zhang Wanli blocked him.
That's why when Qin Shaoyan asked Zhang Wanli if he needed a quota, he would say that he couldn't use it.
The "International College Summer Camp" seems to have a ridiculous name and is full of all kinds of gimmicks.
What about exchanges and studies at prestigious international schools, what kind of world youth high-end summit, what kind of United Nations round-table debates, what a tall and elegant figure.
But in the eyes of the truly rich and powerful, it is nothing at all, because they have other ways of playing, and they are not on the same track as ordinary people.
This kind of qualification-based thing is loved by people who are neither above nor below, who are eager to escape from the ordinary class and show their sense of superiority.
In order to meet the needs of these people who are eager to achieve a class jump and distinguish themselves from ordinary people, a set of industries has also been formed.
As long as you spend money, various pheasant associations, various foundations, and charities will give you a name.
There are a lot of fancy titles, but in fact they are of little use. They can fool ordinary people at first. Later, with the development of network information, many things have revealed their true colors.
And what Qin Shaoyan is doing now is exactly what this kind of people urgently need. In their opinion, the "International College Summer Camp" project is very valuable.
In the past, everyone only focused on making money to fill their stomachs. Now that they have more money, they start to think about other things, and they have no way to do this.
So after seeing the "International College Summer Camp", many people couldn't sit still and tried to get in, just for gold plating.
In order to get a quota, everyone went across the sea to show their talents, and those who built relationships and made deals used everything they could.
Fortunately, Qin Shaoyan pulled Facebook and Edward out as shields, otherwise there would have been countless calls to his head.
Qin Shaoyan understood Zhang Wanli's words "take it easy" immediately.
Don't go too far with the quota thing, otherwise you won't be able to eat the mutton and you'll be in trouble.
These people may not have much ability individually, but they can still do it if they want to disgust people.
Zhang Wanli suddenly said this, which surprised Qin Shaoyan.
After thinking about it for a while, I feel that Brother Zhang is quite a good person.
When Qin Shaoyan's thoughts were wandering, there was a continuous sound of firecrackers outside the window. The colorful fireworks were reflected on the foggy glass, and they were extremely beautiful.
At this time, the Spring Festival Gala program had begun, and Qin Shaoyan was receiving more and more New Year greeting text messages. He was a little overwhelmed, and from time to time he had to answer the phone to accept other people's blessings.
My mother Xun Xiaohui glanced at her son and said teasingly: "A boss like you is busier than an official?"
Qin Shaoyan quickly replied to the message while saying: "I It’s much easier. If you are really an official and you are still visiting the grassroots at this time, you can’t even eat.”
Qin Shaoyan was a little bit dumbfounded, "Mom, there are indeed a lot of things you mentioned, but there are also people who work at the grassroots level."
"The person I just talked to on the phone is a division-level cadre after all. He has just entered the house and hasn't eaten yet."
Xun Xiaohui said casually, "I don't believe it. There are no good people."
Well, although what my mother said is extreme, it also reflects the views of ordinary people in this era.
The current social atmosphere is extremely bad, and all kinds of weird incidents are happening one after another.
Qin Shaoyan smiled, said nothing, and then started to look through the text messages on his mobile phone to see if there was anyone he missed.
After checking around, he found that only Xiong Xiaoge had not sent him a text message, which made Qin Shaoyan speechless.
Mr. Xiong is a bit too narrow-minded.
However, Mr. Qin Shaoyan has a lot of experience and is not as knowledgeable as Old Xiong. He sent several sincere and thoughtful blessing text messages in succession.
The other party kept sending messages when there was no response. When the thirtieth message was sent, Xiong Xiaoge finally replied.
“If you send harassing text messages again, I will block you.”
"This person is really boring." Qin Shaoyan put down his phone.
Qin Donghai also closed QQ and sat on the sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala. As soon as Qin Shaoyan saw that the computer was free, he stood up and rushed over to occupy the position.
First open the campus network and go there to see if the website is stuck and what everyone is discussing in popular squares.
Then check the private messages to see if there is any missing information.
After browsing for a few minutes, I found that not many people were posting in the popular square, and it seemed that the number of people online was not high.
The trend of watching the Spring Festival Gala and making complaints at the same time has not yet emerged. After all, the quality of the current Spring Festival Gala is still comparable.
Everyone is either watching TV or chatting at home, or surfing the Internet and playing games. No one wants to waste time on social platforms.
Qin Shaoyan posted a message using the account of "Honest and Trustworthy Little Man", "I wish you all a Happy New Year."
As soon as he refreshed the page, he found that someone actually sent him a Happy New Year reply. .
Qin Shaoyan clicked on it and was stunned. The person who replied to him turned out to be Mingyue.
Seeing this familiar account, Qin Shaoyan was in a daze for a moment. The last communication he had with Mingyue was more than half a year ago.
He logged into QQ and sent a message directly to Mingyue, "Are you surfing the Internet?"
Mingyue: "Yes, (▽)"
Mingyue: "No I thought you were here too.”
Mingyue: “Aren’t you watching the Spring Festival Gala?”
Qin Shaoyan: "I didn't expect you to be very skilled in using expressions."
Mingyue: "I have been studying for a long time, (#^.^#)"
Qin Shaoyan: "You It's really smart, and you can learn it as soon as you learn it."
Mingyue: "Of course, hehe, I also recommended it to my friends, and they all like it very much."
Qin Shaoyan: "That's it. It’s good, I guess it will form a subculture soon.”
Mingyue: "Then I don't know. Anyway, it's already used in our circle."
Qin Shaoyan: "Why are you surfing the Internet at this time? Aren't you watching the Spring Festival Gala?"
Mingyue : "(︿), I'm working overtime."
Qin Shaoyan was stunned for a moment, then typed quickly and asked: "Why are you still working overtime on New Year's Eve? Is your boss inhumane?"
Mingyue: "Fortunately, I took the outsourced job, so I was in a hurry."
Mingyue: "I was watching the Spring Festival Gala with my grandma and working on the computer at the same time. I was on QQ at the same time. I didn't expect you to be there too."
Qin Shaoyan hesitated for a while, then typed slowly and replied: "You have been recently How are you doing?"
Mingyue: "It's pretty good. I'm already working in an animation company run by a teacher, and my monthly salary is two thousand yuan."
Qin Shaoyan: "The salary of two thousand is not much, and it is hard enough."
Mingyue: "It's already very good. It's not easy to find a job. I can usually do some outsourcing and earn a lot." ”
Mingyue: "I'll treat you next time we meet, hehe."
Qin Shaoyan: "Come on."
Mingyue: "Come on, too. Let's talk tomorrow. I went to help grandma make dumplings. . ”
Mingyue: “Happy New Year!”
Qin Shaoyan looked at the other party’s grayed-out QQ profile picture and was silent for a while, then silently closed QQ.
I felt a little unspeakable melancholy in my heart, looking at the computer screen in trance. "The big hammer is eighty, the small hammer is forty."
"Eighty! Eighty! Eighty!"
A burst of classic sketches came from the TV Qin Shaoyan's thoughts were pulled back by the lines.
He turned his attention to the TV screen, watching the familiar and unfamiliar programs, as if he had traveled through time and space, his expression was a little dazed for a while, and the overlap of memory and reality was a bit confusing.
In 2005, in my previous life, I was watching the Spring Festival Gala with my parents on the fire bed in my hometown in Northeast China.
At that time, he was carefree and full of curiosity about life.
Now he is sitting in a rental house in Beijing, watching the Spring Festival Gala again with his parents.
This moment is completely different from that time.
While Qin Shaoyan was deep in thought, his cell phone rang again. He glanced at it and found that the caller ID turned out to be Su Ran, and his heart suddenly tightened.
He quickly calmed down, calmed down and answered the phone.
"Hello." Su Ran on the opposite side lowered his voice and seemed to be making a secret phone call, "Old Qin, is that you?"
"It's me." Qin Shaoyan felt a little baffled. , "Where are you? Your voice is so low?"
"I'm at home." Su Ran whispered, "I'm afraid my parents will hear me calling you."
"Why?!" Qin Shaoyan felt strange, "What's so scary about making phone calls."
"Oh, my parents are very nosy." Su Ran said dissatisfiedly, "They asked me if I had a boyfriend as soon as I got home. I managed to get over it."
"If they see me typing you I will definitely ask questions on the phone. I can’t stop talking during the New Year.”
“For the sake of peace, I can only hide in the room and call you secretly.”
"Oh." Qin Shaoyan pretended to glance at his parents sitting on the sofa accidentally, got up and walked to his room.
Su Ran asked cautiously: "Well, what are you doing?"
"I was watching the Spring Festival Gala with my parents. The skit was very interesting." Qin Shaoyan said with a normal expression, "Don't you want to watch it?"
"It doesn't matter, it will be replayed tomorrow, and it will be the same if you watch it then." Su Ran smiled and said nonchalantly, "I just called to ask what you are doing."
"When will you return to the capital?"
"I'll do it now. In the capital." Qin Shaoyan replied, "My parents are here to celebrate the New Year with me."
"Oh." Su Ran was very surprised, "My uncle and aunt are here too."
"Yes." Qin Shaoyan heard that Su Ran's tone was wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"No." Su Ran hesitated for a while, "When will you have your vacation? ?”
“Generally speaking, we will go to work on the eighth day of the holiday.” Qin Shaoyan pondered for two seconds, “If something happens, I will go back to the company early.”
Su Ran hesitated for a long time and gathered his strength. Courage asked: "Are you free on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year?"
"The sixth day of the Lunar New Year?!" Qin Shaoyan was startled, "Why do you ask this?"
"We are also working on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. I want to go to the capital on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year." Su Ran said a little shyly, "I thought I would ask you to go out to play on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year."
Qin Shaoyan thought for a while and said hesitantly. : "I originally planned to accompany my parents to visit the scenic spots, let me take a look."
"If I'm not free on the sixth day of the lunar month, what about the seventh day of the lunar month." Su Ran asked cautiously.
"I can only say that the situation is like this." Qin Shaoyan pondered for a while and said, "The specific situation depends on the situation."
Su Ran was silent for a moment, and suddenly Said: "Well... I miss you."
Qin Shaoyan was shocked and blurted out, "I'll arrange the schedule for the sixth and seventh day of the lunar month. In principle, it's okay."
Su Ran suddenly became happy, "Then it's settled, I'm going to help Mom is working, let’s talk tomorrow.”
Su Ran hung up the phone in a hurry, without giving Qin Shaoyan a chance to speak.
Qin Shaoyan was a little dumbfounded when he heard the busy signal coming from his mobile phone, and turned around and returned to the living room.
At this time, Qin Donghai and Xun Xiaohui's eyes seemed to be focused on watching the TV, but their ears were straight.
Seeing Qin Shaoyan sitting back in front of the computer, Xun Xiaohui asked casually, "Who called just now."
"A friend." Qin Shaoyan said casually.
"Male and female."
Qin Shaoyan was full of intelligence and answered calmly: "The woman is from the bank and sells financial management. She asked me if I want to buy financial management."
Xun Xiaohui seemed very disappointed, "Oh, that's it, I thought he was your friend."
"I have many friends." Qin Shaoyan said casually.
Xun Xiaohui glanced at Qin Shaoyan dissatisfied, "Come here and tell you something."
"Mom, just tell me what you want." Qin Shaoyan refused to go over and listened to the tone It doesn't seem like a good thing.
"You come here for business." Xun Xiaohui said sternly.
Qin Shaoyan reluctantly moved his buttocks and sat on the sofa.
"It's time for you to find a partner." Xun Xiaohui said earnestly, "You are not young anymore. Find a partner as soon as possible to get married and have children."
Qin Shaoyan was speechless. He is still urging marriage on New Year's Eve. Do you want to let him go? People celebrate the New Year.
"Tell the truth to mom, are you dating someone?" Xun Xiaohui suddenly said.
"Ah?!" Qin Shaoyan was stunned for a moment, "No, no, I'm busy with work, how can I have time to find a partner."
"If you don't have a partner, why don't you hurry up and find one?!" Xun Xiaohui He lectured with a straight face.
"Well, okay, I understand." Qin Shaoyan was perfunctory while still thinking about the next schedule in his mind.
On the one hand, it is how to reasonably plan the parents' travel route, and on the other hand, it is how to find time to meet Su Ran.
It soon came to 12 o'clock at midnight. After the countdown rang the New Year's bell, my mother got up and went to cook dumplings.
The Spring Festival Gala program is coming to an end, and everyone’s thoughts are no longer on the TV program.
Qin Shaoyan slipped to the computer again and opened the campus network. After refreshing it a few times, he found that the page was stuck.
"Huh?! What's going on?" Qin Shaoyan checked his network a few more times and found that it still wasn't getting better. He quickly checked his network.
When he was sure that his home network was normal, he felt something was wrong and immediately called the employee on duty.
"I am Qin Shaoyan, what's wrong with the website?"
The employee on duty was sweating profusely, "The boss's server keeps reporting errors, we are urgently repairing it."< br>
Qin Shaoyan’s face darkened, “Can we handle it?”
"We are trying to restart the server." The employee said quickly.
"Can it be done?" Qin Shaoyan asked sternly.
"This..." The employee hesitated, "It's a bit difficult."
"Then have you contacted Mr. Zhang?" Qin Shaoyan continued to ask.
"Mr. Zhang can't get through on the phone, and he didn't reply to our QQ message." The employee replied with some embarrassment.
"You try to solve it first, I'll call Mr. Zhang." Qin Shaoyan warned.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Shaoyan called Zhang Pingyi again, but he didn't get through as expected.
