Chapter 208: Elite Class
In a blink of an eye, it entered November, and Wang Xinming did not bring good news after returning from the provincial capital, and of course did not bring bad news.
After all, the demand for foods such as noodles, vermicelli, and vermicelli is far less than that of mountain eggs, and their popularity is far less than that of mountain eggs and mountain mushrooms.
Wang Xinming said: "Mr. Zhang's father said that he will find a way to expand the sales channels of sweet potato products in the next two days, and he will contact you when the response is good." ”
Of course, Lin Ping couldn't wait for Zhang Zhao to contact him, but took the initiative to call Zhang Zhao.
On the phone, Lin Ping and Zhang Zhao discussed the marketing strategy, and after the discussion between the two, the two have always believed that the most important thing at present is to let Kushan's sweet potato products open the market and be recognized by consumers.
As a result, Lin Ping and Zhang Zhao decided on two strategies:
The first is a low-price promotion, anyway, the cost of Kushan sweet potato products is low, and if you want to open the market and gain consumer recognition, there is nothing more effective than low price, so under the discussion of the two, this batch of sweet potato products will be sold at a seven-fold trial price.
The second item is bundled sales, Kushan sweet potato products will be bundled with Kushan eggs in the form of gifts, saying that it is a giveaway, but it is actually a box of Kushan eggs and a box of sweet potato products that were originally 50 yuan tied together, and then sold for 70 yuan. This is also a common marketing routine used by many shopping malls and supermarkets.
In Lin Ping's view, as long as the market can be opened at this stage, the price is not a problem, the key is to sell out.
And on the first day of November, for the students of Chung Kook Hope School, there is a big gift waiting for them - the monthly exam!
For the exam, the students of Chung Kook Hope School are both nervous and looking forward to it, especially the students who are in the middle of the academic performance, because the exam is an opportunity for this group of children to get [commodity exchange coupons] to buy snacks, and those with good academic performance naturally do not have to worry, they are confident that they will get good results, and those with poor academic performance do not have to worry, they are also very confident - they will not be able to get [commodity exchange coupons] at all.
After the end of this monthly exam, the top few in each grade are still those few people, and the first place in the first grade of junior high school is well deserved to be Wang Yige, Wang Yige's results are far ahead, and the total score is very exaggerated, leaving the second place in their class by more than 90 points, which is almost a gap in one subject.
And Wang Yige has also become a veritable first brother in their class, and even the first brother of the entire Zhongguo Hope School, in terms of it, no one in this school has better grades than him.
At the same time, Liu Qingmei and the others also ushered in the first important exam after high school life - the placement test!
Xibei No. 1 Middle School conducted a placement test two months after the freshmen entered the high school, and this examination divided an elite class, which is also a common practice in most schools, although the state has always required schools not to engage in class differentiation, not to engage in elite classes and ordinary classes, but openly and secretly each school will still engage in class differentiation, some are called experimental classes, some are called bilingual classes, and some are called pioneer classes.
This is also a last resort, because the reputation and status of a high school ultimately depend on the school's admission rate and the proportion of students admitted to prestigious schools.
If there is a champion in the college entrance examination, the school does not have to publicize itself, and there will be a large number of news reports and parents spontaneously promoting the school. And the popularity and status of the school will increase, and it will be able to obtain more government resources and more and better students.
Pooling excellent teachers for excellent students is something that most schools do because it brings the greatest benefit to the school. Therefore, most schools will set up an elite class, and the teachers of the elite class are the best teachers, and the students are all top students.
The advantage of the elite class is that the top students generally have high learning talent, strong comprehension ability, and are willing to learn, so they will learn fast, learn more, learn additional content, and by the way, they may also find time to participate in competitions such as Olympiad mathematics and materialization competitions. This is indeed unfair to students in ordinary classes, but it is a difficult thing to solve.
However, if an ordinary student is placed in an elite class, it does not necessarily have much benefit to this ordinary student, and the student is likely to not be able to catch up with the teaching progress of the elite class, unable to absorb a large amount of content taught in the elite class, and will be very tired of learning. And this is exactly what Lin Ping was worried about, because Liu Qingmei and Liu Xiangqian finally succeeded in staying in the first class of Xibei No. 1 Middle School, which is the so-called elite class.
Liu Qingmei ranked 23rd in the whole grade in this placement test, and Liu Xiangqian was also determined to stay in the elite class after being educated by Lin Ping after returning home on the National Day, and he took the 28th place in the whole grade.
The top 50 in the placement test can stay in the elite class of the first class of high school, Liu Qingmei and Liu Xiangqian naturally stayed without a doubt, and Lin Ping was worried about Liu Qingmei.
Liu Qingmei has no talent, maybe her talent is hard work!
There must be a lot of S-level and A-level students in the elite class, and Liu Qingmei, whose learning talent is only an ordinary C-level, naturally does not have an advantage, and her good academic performance depends entirely on her S+-level effort.
In the words of Liu Qingmei and Lin Ping: "I know that I am stupid, so I can only catch up with those smart people by working hard." ”
She really works hard enough, what others can learn once, Liu Qingmei will learn three, four or even five times, and others can memorize English essays in ten minutes, Liu Qingmei may need several extra class breaks.
However, there are some things that are not enough with hard work, as Edison said: genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration, but that one percent of inspiration is the most important, even more important than the ninety-nine percent of perspiration.
Lin Ping was afraid that Liu Qingmei would be too tired and even psychologically stressed in the elite class because of her fast learning progress and too much learning content.
Entering the elite class, for Liu Qingmei, there are advantages and disadvantages, Lin Ping can only let Liu Qingmei call more to communicate with him, and try his best to help her solve problems and reduce psychological pressure.
As for Liu Xiangqian, Lin Ping was not worried about his mind, but worried that his intelligence would not be used in the right place.
However, after entering the elite class, for Liu Xiangqian, the advantages must far outweigh the disadvantages, and the learning pressure and learning atmosphere of the elite class will help Liu Xiangqian, a child, to study harder.
