Chapter 719: Challenging the Visa Officer

Chen Wen had just finished counting the number of people when the big iron door in front of him was opened from the inside, and the three interviewers walked out!

The expressions of two of them were excited and excited, and it seemed that they had obtained visas. The other man was expressionless, unable to see success or failure.

The staff member sitting in the chair stood up and said in French: "You three, please go out to the left, leave the building through the small door on the first floor, and never go out through the main entrance." ”

Chen Wen understands, this is a signpost for them not to let those who have completed the interview become latecomers!

After the three left, the staff shouted, "Applicants No. 4, 5, and 6, please come over." ”

"It's me! I'm going!" Wang Qiao whispered, standing up.

"Come on, Wang Qiao!" Chen Wen lowered his voice and cheered.

"Hmm!" Wang Qiao carried his schoolbag and trotted to the iron gate.

The staff checked the interview notices of the three and said lightly in French: "Applicant No. 4, room No. 1." Applicant No. 5, Room No. 2. Applicant No. 6, Room No. 3. Come in. ”

Chen Wen sat on a chair and watched Wang Qiao walk into the iron gate at the end of the three-person line.

Looking at everyone left and right, some people are nervous, some people are calm, and some people close their eyes to recuperate.

Chen Wen is not nervous at all, they can give this visa if they like, it doesn't matter if they don't give it, it's a big deal that he will find a way to steal it to Africa!

With nothing to do, Chen Wen stared at his watch and pinched the time to see how long Wang Qiao would take.

While waiting, three more applicants pushed the door in.

The minute hand has traveled 7 stops.

Just after 7 minutes, the iron door opened again, and applicants 4, 5, and 6 walked out.

Wang Qiao walked in the last position.

Chen Wen's eyes were glued to her, searching for Wang Qiao's expression.

Wang Qiao's face was festive, his right hand was raised halfway, and he made a V at Chen Wen.

Chen Wen understood, Wang Qiao got a visa!

Chen Wen stretched out his right hand, gave a thumbs up, and made a response gesture at Wang Qiao.

Wang Qiao saw Chen Wen's thumb movements, and responded that Chen Wen made a cute grimace with his tongue sticking out.

The staff member sitting in the chair stood up again and said in French: "You three, please go out to the left, leave the building through the small door on the first floor, and never go out through the main entrance." ”

After Wang Qiao and the three left, the staff called the No. 7, 8, and 9 applicants to participate in the interview. Then, he closed the big iron door.

Chen Wen and the others continued to wait, and waited.

During this period, applicants entered the large room one after another.

Chen Wen didn't bother to inquire about their serial numbers one by one, he guessed that it shouldn't be everyone who understood the French guy at the gate

bit guide, there must be someone who is blind and can't find the way.

Chen Wen is too lazy to take care of other people's affairs, he doesn't need to run out to be a human flesh guide.

Waiting and waiting, the iron door opened and closed.

Interviews with 9 applicants from 3 groups were completed. Counting the first two groups, a total of 15 people came out of the big iron gate.

Except for Wang Qiao's expression, which is what Chen Wen is enthusiastic about, Chen Wen is too lazy to take a closer look, they are not relatives, they don't know each other, and they are not beauties, so what is there to see.

After applicants 13, 14, and 15 left, the staff shouted, "Applicants 16, 17, and 18 are invited to come." ”

Chen Wen was the number 17, and immediately stood up and walked to the big iron gate.

Subsequently, the staff again instructed that the interview room for applicant No. 17 should be No. 2.

The three of them walked into the big iron gate, Chen Wen lined up in the middle, one person in front and one in the front.

The three of them walked in the door, and the iron door was slammed shut by the staff.

Chen Wen took a deep breath and raised his eyes to look at the Qiankun behind the iron gate.

It took nearly half a year and so much effort to finally get to the visa interview!

Inside the iron gate, there is a corridor with a width that allows two people to walk side by side.

Chen Wen had a good sense of orientation, and he could tell that this small corridor was parallel to the large corridor outside, separated by the wall on the right.

The three applicants walked along the corridor and walked about three meters to a doorway with the word "1" on it, and Applicant No. 16 stopped, knocked on the door and entered.

Applicant No. 18 behind Chen Wen and Chen Wen continued to walk forward for about 5 meters until they reached the door marked "No. 2", where Chen Wen stopped.

Applicant No. 18 continued to the next doorway.

Chen Wen didn't knock on the door in a hurry, he glanced into the depths of the corridor, and after the third door, there were two more doors. See, there are a total of 5 interview rooms, and up to 5 applicants can be interviewed at the same time.

Raising his right hand, Chen Wen knocked on the wooden door.

Tuk-tuk.

"Please come in!" a man's voice came from inside the door.

Chen Wen pushed the door in, and after entering, he gently closed the door. Chen Wen is a polite person, and this little common sense does not require training. Do you still want the master to close the door for you?

"Hi young man, please be seated!" the visa officer greeted Chen Wen with a smile, in French.

"Thank you, sir, you look very handsome!" Chen Wen walked to his seat and sat down as he spoke.

In the middle is a desk, and Chen Wen and the visa officer sit separately across the table.

Chen Wen is not blindly praising the other party for being handsome, but the other party is really handsome!

The visa officer in front of him looks very much like the tennis star Agassi!

Agassi was a legendary tennis player of the 90s, and Sampras was the dominant player in men's tennis in this era.

Chen Wen is a sports fan with a wide range of knowledge, and he knows that Agassi won eight Grand Slams in his life, including the first Grand Slam of his career in 1992.

This year, for example, Agassi has been a regular on sports news, both on television and in newspapers, and his name and face have been seen frequently for more than half a year.

Seeing a visa officer who looked similar today, Chen Wen's good impression doubled, and he didn't feel nervous

The visa officer said with a friendly expression: "Thank you for complimenting me, but I will not relax the intensity of the interview because of this!"

Chen Wen smiled: "I didn't expect you to relax your intensity. By the way, no one said you resembled Agassi?"

The visa officer laughed and said, "Oh? You know Agassi?"

Chen Wen said: "This year he is always in the news because of his championship, and I know his handsome face too well. ”

The visa officer said, "Okay, okay, I thank you for the compliment, let's start the interview." Please show me your passport, Huaxia ID card, and interview invitation letter. ”

It took about a minute for the visa officer to compare Chen Wen's appearance with his documents, and then pressed the record button of the tape recorder and said: "Hello, the 17th applicant on August 17, 1992, welcome to the visa interview of the French Consulate in China and Shanghai, and our next conversation will be recorded for review if necessary." Do you agree?"

Chen Wen said: "I agree. ”

The visa officer asked, "Our interview has officially begun." Excuse me, why did you choose to study with us in France instead of the UK or the US?"

Chen Wen replied: "I like French culture, I like to read France since I was a child, and my French is very good, far better than my English, so I think I should go to France to see the scenes described in Alexandre Dumas and Maupassant, and visit the places they wrote." ”

The visa officer asked, "Why don't you choose to travel to France and apply to study abroad?"

Chen Wen replied: "Sorry, you don't have open tourist visas. And I don't think I'm a fan of fast-food travel, preferring to go to university in France and see the sights that interest me. ”

The visa officer asked, "Can you show me your proof of assets?"

Chen Wen handed over the BOC passbook and Great Wall card.

The balance figure on the passbook raised the visa officer's eyebrows.

The visa officer asked, "It looks like you are a student from a wealthy family in China." IMHO, with your deep pockets, it is entirely possible for you to continue to apply for a longer period of study abroad after the one-year study tour. Please tell me, are you going to do this?"
