When the train entered the Guangzhou Railway Station, it was already the early morning of June 1st, and under the leadership of the team leader, everyone did not leave the station, but waited in the railway station, ready to take the Guangzhou-Kowloon through train to Xiangjiang.

At this time, the through train is only sent a pair a day, if you miss this trip in the morning, you can only wait for the next day, in order to save time, it is natural to buy a ticket directly on the bus, and then take a rest after arriving in Xiangjiang.

At 8:30 in the morning, the train departed on time, Chen Dahe lay on the side of the window, looking at the scenery and pedestrians outside the window, and was a little distracted for a while.

Think about last August when I came here, although it has only been less than a year, but this land seems to have changed a lot, along the way from time to time you can see the construction site under construction, some are factories, some are buildings, and some are building bridges and roads and other infrastructure, everywhere is in full swing of the scene, in stark contrast to the calm waves of Beijin.

However, the attention of the fellow students is not here, their minds have already arrived in Xiangjiang, when the train is halfway through, everyone began to line up to the carriage toilet to wash their faces, and then change into clean clothes, a male classmate even took out a suit and put it on, seeing Chen Dahe sweating profusely, this is Xiangjiang in June, is it really not hot to wear it like this? !

After enjoying the envious eyes of his classmates for less than five minutes, the classmate still decisively put away his suit again, and then looked at the white shirt that was already soaked on his body, and finally he was reluctant to take it off, so he lay down at the window and waited to dry.

After the customs clearance at Luohu Port, the train entered the Xiangjiang section under the guidance of the driver of the Xiangjiang Belt Road, and the students began to get excited, and they all lay on the window to look at the traffic of the high-rise buildings outside, and let out bursts of exclamations from time to time.

Chen Dahe looked at them, and sighed in his heart, maybe some people will laugh at them for being old-fashioned, but it is precisely because of this yearning for a better life that the Chinese people can burst out with enthusiasm for construction beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and it only took thirty or forty years to catch up with the accumulation of Western powers in the past hundred years, and relist them as the world's great powers with the attitude of a regional power, and once again attract the attention of the world.

After more than 50 minutes, the train finally slowly entered Hung Hom Station in Kowloon, at this time, the team leader teacher also remembered his duty, clapped his hands and shouted, "Pay attention, everyone pack their luggage, remember what I said before departure, pay attention to your own image, remember not to discredit the motherland, understand?" In addition, I would like to reiterate that during my stay in Xiangjiang, all actions are subject to command, and it is not allowed to contact outsiders at will, and it is not allowed to go out on your own. ”

Although everyone was a little dissatisfied in their hearts, they still nodded silently to indicate that they knew when they heard the consequences of what the team leader said.

"Of course, I'm not saying that you can't all go out," the team leader said, "Since you have come to Xiangjiang, it can't be in vain, and I will find a time to organize everyone to go out for a day." ”

"Oh......"

"Okay,"

Everyone became excited all of a sudden, applauding one after another, and Chen Dahe also applauded with the crowd.

Of course, it is impossible for him to listen to the arrangement of the team leader, otherwise he will not have to do anything, and he will really come to the exam, but now is not the time to speak, wait until the hotel.

After getting off the bus, the team leader teacher commanded more than a dozen people to stand in a row, neatly walked out of the train station under the strange eyes of outsiders, and then got on a bus under the leadership of the pick-up staff and was taken directly to a hotel to stay.

After the other students returned to the room, Chen Dahe found the room of the team leader with his satchel, took out a piece of paper from the bag and handed it to him, "Hello teacher, this is my job introduction letter, and I need to stay in Xiangjiang for a while, so I am here to apply for leaving the team, please approve the teacher." ”

The team leader teacher was stunned for a moment, hesitantly took it over, and was taken aback, looked at Chen Dahe in amazement and said, "You are a cadre of the Ministry of Culture?"

Chen Dahe grinned and said, "Now I am not a cadre, or I am in the Ministry of Culture, and I belong to the External Liaison Bureau. ”

This letter of introduction is what Chen Dahe prepared for leaving the team, if he didn't have this, if he left without permission, he would put on a defection hat if he didn't get it right, no matter how hard the backstage was, it wouldn't work, and he could still clear up this kind of principled issue.

"I see," the team leader nodded suddenly, "I said why did you come here for the exam in your freshman year, it turns out that you have a task, but your unit is also strange, and you are not afraid of any accidents when you send this little comrade over,"

Then he shook the paper in his hand, "In addition, I have to verify your letter of introduction, after all, you were brought here by me, and I am responsible for your safety." ”

"No problem," Chen Dahe nodded, "You can call the Ministry of Culture, or you can verify the situation with the Department of Education and Engineering of our school." ”

"There's no need to be so troublesome," the team leader waved his hand, "I just ask the comrades from the Xinhua News Agency to help me verify, and they can contact the mainland directly." ”

With that, he left the room and went to the front desk outside to make a call, and Chen Dahe also followed.

At this time, the Xiangjiang Xinhua News Agency is equivalent to the official unofficial representative stationed here in the mainland, and everything in the mainland is contacted through them, including TOEFL test registration, as well as the pick-up station just now, they are all helping, and it is faster to contact them through the mainland.

After making the call, he handed the letter of introduction to Chen Dahe, and at the same time said, "I have already made a call, and there will be a reply within half an hour, you can always afford to wait for this time." ”

"It's okay," Chen Dahe said with a smile, "I just have to call someone to pick me up, and it will be about the same time when they come over." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Oh, do you still have anyone here?" the team leader asked curiously, "Now your unit has also begun to set up overseas offices?"

Chen Dahe just wanted to speak, but the phone was already connected, so he smiled apologetically, and then said into the phone, "I've arrived, you guys come and pick me up now, yes, right now, the address is, wait a minute, I'll ask,"

After asking the address of the hotel at the front desk, he reported it, and then hung up the phone.

At this time, everyone else was resting in the room, after all, after taking the train for two or three days, the iron beating people couldn't stand it, so only the team leader teacher and Chen Dahe sat on the sofa in the hall and chatted.

In less than half an hour, the Xinhua News Agency called back, and after confirming that Chen Dahe's letter of introduction was true, the team leader teacher let him move freely, as for the exam, as long as he came to take it when the time came, he went back to his room to rest, he didn't sleep well for two or three days, and he also needed to rest.
