Hu Mingchen stayed in Gongfuli Company for more than two hours in total, of course, it was impossible to do all for Hu Dehua's work, Hu Dehua's affairs were all done in ten or twenty minutes, Hu Mingchen sent Hu Dehua to Luo Haocai today, because he himself had something to talk to Luo Haocai.

After handing over Hu Dehua to Luo Haocai to take care of, Hu Mingchen took his sister Hu Yandi and Fang Guoping to the capital by plane.

From the moment he got on the plane, Hu Yandie seemed a little nervous.

Hu Mingchen can understand Hu Yandie's nervousness, this is her first time going far away, before that, she has never even been to Zhennan, let alone the capital, and this time she is still flying into Beijing.

Although he saw that his sister was a little nervous, Hu Mingchen didn't say much, and he didn't even mention words of comfort. After all, the capital is not the end of her trip, but just a transit station.

After receiving a period of language reinforcement in the capital, Hu Yandi is going to the other side of the ocean, if he needs comfort even in China, what if he goes to a foreign country?

So, Hu Mingchen let his sister adapt to it and get through it by herself.

Hu Mingchen and the others arrived at the capital airport, and Wu Huaisi chartered a car to pick them up at the airport.

In the capital, Hu Mingchen and they didn't have a foothold, so they had to stay in a hotel. For convenience, Hu Mingchen and his family stayed in a luxury hotel in Zhongguancun. Because the training institution that Fang Guoping found was located in Zhongguancun.

"Angkor, how is the arrangement?" After settling down at the hotel, Hu Mingchen began to talk to Wu Huaisi about business.

"Xiao Chen, Miss Hu, our agency helped us contact two universities, one with Duke University, the other with Illy Roy University at Chicago, and originally contacted the University of Toronto and the University of Waterloo in Canada, but there was no reply. Wu Huaisi sat opposite Hu Mingchen and Hu Yandie, took out some information and handed it to them.

"Duke University and the University of Illinois, both of which are famous universities in the United States, can you get in?" Hu Mingchen asked in disbelief.

Hu Mingchen did not study abroad, and he did not know much about American universities, but he had heard the names of these two universities.

Although Hu Mingchen knew that many universities in the United States could donate money to study, he didn't expect these Ivy League schools to be so casual. In his mind, with conditions like Hu Yandie, even if he can go to the United States to study, he must be studying in a university outside the top 100.

I never thought that Wu Huaisi was okay, but he actually took two good universities for him to choose from, which was really a bit of a surprise.

"Xiao Chen, it's the University of Illinois at Chicago. Wu Huaisi corrected Hu Mingchen's words.

"Isn't that a university?" Hu Mingchen wondered.

Hu Mingchen clearly understands a branch campus as a campus, because many universities in China have multiple campuses, but they are still combined into one university.

"Well, it's not quite the same, the University of Illinois at Chicago is more than a hundred years behind Illinois Roy University, which was founded in 1982, and the core of Illinois University is on the Champaign campus. If Miss Hu wants to go to Illi-Roy University, she can only go to the Chicago campus, and the Champagne campus is very difficult. Moreover, Illi-Roy University is a public university and is known as a public Ivy League, and Duke University is a completely private university. Wu Huaisi explained.

"Hehe, then I'm really a little lonely, sister, which of these two universities are you willing to go to?" Hu Mingchen smiled awkwardly, and then asked Hu Yandie.

"I don't understand that either...... I don't know which one is better, so you can help me with an idea. Hu Yandi said in a weak voice.

"Brother Ang, then you can introduce me, what is the difference between these two universities in terms of choice, and what kind of conditions do they have?" Hu Mingchen didn't know how to do it himself, so he simply threw the ball to Wu Huaisi.

In order to implement the school for Hu Yandie, Wu Huaisi really put a lot of effort, and the capital is the base camp for studying abroad, there are the best universities in the country, the most study abroad institutions, and it is also the place with the most concentrated foreign relations contacts. Take the university where Wu Huaisi attended, every year, there are a large number of graduates going out, and the United States is the first destination.

"If you talk about the quality of the school, no, it should be said that the ranking, from this point of view, Illie Roy University Chicago is not at the same level as Duke University at all. Duke University is in the top 20 in the world, while Illy Roy University Chicago is in the top 200, about the same as the 15 or so 985 universities in our country. In terms of major selection, the best thing at Illey Roy University Chicago is medicine, but it is estimated that Miss Hu will be very difficult to major...... After all, there was no foundation for this before, and there were only law and business schools. There are many majors to choose from at Duke University, including computer science, and Miss Hu still has some foundation in this regard. ”

"Angkor, don't mention the foundation of the country, you know, my sister studied in a secondary school, in our small place, the so-called computer, is just to teach how to use it, and deeper things will not be involved at all. Hu Mingchen said.

Hu Mingchen has tried Hu Yandie's level, that is, several software, such as PPT, such as office software, is more proficient than him, although they also have programming classes, but even teachers can't, let alone students.

"Then Miss Hu can at least have the opportunity to choose according to her own interests. ”

"I'm afraid I'm not good at computer science, my brother is right, our school is to teach how to use, at most I will do image processing and table processing, this is still forgotten. Hu Yandie said, "If I can, I want to choose a liberal arts major, otherwise...... I'm afraid I won't be able to adapt to it at all. ”

"Angkor, you go on. Hu Mingchen said.

In addition to these, the two schools also differ in the selection criteria for students, for example, Duke University has an acceptance rate of less than 13 percent, while Illie Roy University Chicago has an acceptance rate of nearly 30 percent. For international students, Duke University TOEFL requires a score of 100, Illino Roy University only needs 80 points, IELTS, Duke University does not need a score of less than 7, and Illy Roy University Chicago can reduce it to 6.5 or even 6. ”

"I kind of understand that these two universities are not at the same level at all, so of course I have to choose a good one, so naturally I want to go to Duke University. Hu Mingchen patted his thigh and said.

"It's true that the gap is quite big, but it's just ...... They also have a very different requirement...... "Wu Huaisi hesitated.

"What's the difference?" asked Hu Mingchen with a frown.

"The amount of the donation. Wu Huaisi pursed his lips and said.

"Is there a big difference?" asked Hu Mingchen intently.

"It's very big, if you go to Illie Roy University Chicago, then you can donate a million dollars to get a place, but Duke University is much higher, the agent told me about 2.5 million dollars, and the tuition of these two universities will be more than 20,000 dollars a year. Wu Huaisi said.

"Ah, two and a half million dollars? Isn't that going to ...... Almost 20 million yuan? That's too much, isn't it? As soon as he heard that he wanted so much money, Hu Yandi was immediately surprised.

She never imagined that she would need so much money to go to the United States to study, in her imagination, at most hundreds of thousands of dollars, who knew that it would cost tens of millions, and this still does not include tuition and living expenses.

"The point is that we are not American citizens, and if we were Americans, we would probably be able to go to Harvard for the price. Americans who donate $1 million to Harvard University receive membership in the Harvard School Resource Council (COUR). Harvard's undergraduate acceptance rate is less than 10%, and more than half of the applications of those with a perfect SAT score are rejected by Harvard, but at least 336 of the 424 COUR members are admitted to Harvard, which is quite high. And as far as I know, some of these people have a hard time even graduating from high school. Wu Huaisi explained.

As soon as he heard that it would cost 2.5 million US dollars, Hu Mingchen himself was a little hesitant.

This is not to say that Hu Mingchen can't take out 2.5 million US dollars, the key is that at this juncture, Hu Mingchen himself does not have enough money, otherwise he would not have borrowed tens of millions from Luo Haocai.

In addition, Duke University is too good, and he is also worried about whether Hu Yandi can keep up.

American universities are very different from us, we are strict in and wide out, while American universities are wide in and strict out. It may be easy to get in, but it is quite difficult to graduate smoothly, unlike us, as long as you mix for four years, you can't get a degree certificate, at least the graduation certificate is guaranteed.

"Angkor, can two and a half million dollars guarantee that you will definitely go in?" asked Hu Mingchen after biting his lip.

"Xiao Chen, it's too expensive, it's too expensive, don't go, two million is enough, it's enough to live a lifetime in China. Hu Yandie thought that Hu Mingchen was really determined to spend so much money to let him go to the United States, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.

"Sister, I'm just asking first. ”

"Not 100 percent, but the admission rate can be increased by seven times, at least the language level can still be passed. So if Miss Hu is going, the language training in the capital is not a month, but four months, and it will not be until November, and there is at least half a year of language improvement in the United States. Wu Huaisi said.

"If I pay 20 million yuan, and I can't be 100% sure, wouldn't it be possible that the bamboo basket will be empty, no, I'd rather change to some not very good schools, as long as it's a university. Hu Yandi waved his hand and shook his head.

"What about Illie Roy University Chicago?" Hu Mingchen continued to ask as if he hadn't heard Hu Yandie's words.

"It's relatively easy here, although this university is public, but the United States ** is not directly managed, and the school board has a lot of rights over the selection and admission of students. If you choose a business school, you can also donate another $500,000 to the business school, which is more secure. Wu Huaisi replied.
