Chapter 386: Classmates
Capital. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In a small courtyard on the north street of Yuetan Temple, there are two four-story buildings in the Soviet style. The Institute of Economic Strategy of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences is located on one of the buildings, occupying an area of one and a half floors. Later generations of Feng Xiaochen also visited here, but by that time the office building had undergone several rounds of renovations, and although it still looked as simple and heavy as it is now, the corridors had been paved with non-slip tiles, each room had its own air conditioning, and some offices even had fingerprint recognition door locks.
Compared with later generations, the furnishings in this office building can only be described by the word shabby, and the occasional people walking in the corridor are also wearing some old clothes, with the vicissitudes of life left by the years on their faces, no different from the migrant workers of later generations. But Feng Xiaochen knew that these people were all famous economists in later generations, and their names would frequently appear in various books.
"You are Feng Xiaochen, you look much older than in the file, and I have always been worried that you are too young to take care of yourself. ”
In the administrative office of the Institute of Strategic Studies, Liu Yahui, the secretary of academic affairs and the secretary of life, checked Feng Xiaochen's registration card, looked Feng Xiaochen up and down, and commented with a smile.
Liu Yahui is a typical middle-aged aunt in the Beijing government unit, who has worked in the unit for decades, and everyone up and down is familiar with her, she is warm-hearted and speaks openly. She had already read Feng Xiaochen's file and knew that this freshman was 23 years old, and he was not a child anymore. However, her thinking was deviated by the "education" column in Feng Xiaochen's file, and she always felt that Feng Xiaochen was a junior high school student, which was naturally the type of Too young, too simple Tucson break.
"I went to the Educated Youth Point at the age of 14 to become an educated youth, and there is no problem in taking care of myself. Feng Xiaochen also replied with a smile. Liu Yahui's "self-care" is too easy to misunderstand, but Feng Xiaochen does not intend to correct it.
Feng Xiaochen's self-introduction made Liu Yahui feel pity, she shook her head and sighed: "You are only 14 years old to become an educated youth?
"It's okay, everyone else around me takes good care of me. Feng Xiaochen said.
"Well, there are still a lot of good people in this world!" Liu Yahui made an unobtrusive comment, and then said: "It's okay, I studied in the Strategy Institute, come to me if you have anything to do in life, and I will arrange it for you." By the way, I also specially arranged for an older comrade to share the dormitory with you, what is his name...... By the way, his name is Wang Zhenbin, a director of the State Planning Commission, 40 years old this year, a college student in the 60s, and the eldest brother of your class. ”
"yes, that's great, I can learn a lot from Big Brother. Feng Xiaochen said perfunctorily. For this kind of enthusiastic aunt, you must always echo her words, so that she feels that you are humble and cautious, and that you are a good child to teach, so that she will take care of you in every way in the future. On the other hand, if you ignore her words, or even show annoyance, you will be on her blacklist, and you may be embarrassed at any time. Feng Xiaochen had such an aunt in his unit in his previous life, and he was very good at dealing with this kind of person.
Sure enough, Feng Xiaochen's attitude made Liu Yahui quite happy, and she said: "Xiao Feng, it's very good that you have such an attitude. I have seen that among the 6 students in our class, you have the lowest academic qualifications, only with a junior Chinese certificate. But it doesn't matter, as long as you have the spirit to study hard, there is no difficulty in catching up. Your tutor is Mr. Shen, right? He is a good person, and everyone in the institute knows that Mr. Shen has a very good temper and is very good to his students, so you are looking for the right person. ”
"Yes, yes, the leaders of the Economic Commission also said this when they arranged for me to study. ”
"Come on, I'll take you to the dormitory, and by the way, I'll give you a brief introduction to the situation of the Strategy Institute. ”
Aunt Liu's kindness was something Feng Xiaochen couldn't shirk, so he could only obediently carry his luggage roll, follow Liu Yahui, get off the office building, and come to the opposite building.
This building is called the teaching building, and the first and second floors are used for classrooms, conference rooms, warehouses, etc., and the third and fourth floors are used for student dormitories and dormitories for young teachers.
There are a total of three research institutes in this small courtyard on the north street of Yuetan, and the number of graduate students enrolled every year is about 20, so the dormitory is quite spacious. Students are in a room of two, each equipped with a bed, a desk, a cabinet and a bookshelf, which is much better than even the single workers in some units.
Feng Xiaochen has a place to live in the capital, but according to the regulations of the institute, graduate students must live on campus, and it is clearly written on the admission notice that they must bring their luggage to register. Feng Xiaochen inquired about it from the side, and knew that the institute was not too strict in this regard, and no one usually went to investigate. Generally speaking, in the first year, there are many courses, so it is more convenient for students to live in the institute most of the time. In the second and third grades, when there are no classes, it is okay for students to go home and live there. Of course, the premise of this is not to be too public, if you go home to live in violation of the regulations, and post a circle of friends to show off, you will be dead. Even if the institute doesn't trouble you, can the leaders of the hospital spare you?
Liu Yahui led Feng Xiaochen and chattered all the way to introduce various situations, and soon came to the door of the dormitory assigned to Feng Xiaochen. The door to the dormitory was hidden, indicating that there was already someone inside. Liu Yahui stood outside the door and shouted: "Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, Comrade Xiao Feng, who is in the same dormitory as you, is here." ”
Before the words fell, the door was opened, and a middle-aged man in his 40s, neatly dressed, with the distinctive characteristics of an agency cadre, appeared in front of the two of them. The middle-aged man first greeted Liu Yahui, then turned his gaze to Feng Xiaochen, stretched out his hand and said enthusiastically: "You are Comrade Feng Xiaochen, right? My name is Wang Zhenbin, and I used to work for the State Planning Commission. I heard Mr. Liu say that the person in the dormitory with me was a young comrade. I'm old, stupid, slow learners, and I'm going to ask for a lot of help from you in the future. ”
Feng Xiaochen shook hands with the other party and said, "Brother Wang is polite, Teacher Liu has already told me just now, I am the lowest educated in our class, and I only have the culture of graduating from junior high school." Brother Wang is a college student in the 60s, with a high level, and I will ask Brother Wang for more help in my studies in the future. ”
Wang Zhenbin said: "Where and where, the things I learned have long been outdated, you young people have a wide range of knowledge, you need to help me more." ”
Hearing the two praising each other, Liu Yahui applauded on the side: "Haha, you two have a really good attitude, you are very modest, you can help each other in the future." Xiao Wang, I handed over Xiao Feng to you, you have to take good care of him in life. I had other things to do, so I'll go first. ”
"Goodbye, Mr. Liu!"
"Thank you, Mr. Liu!"
Watching Liu Yahui walk away, Wang Zhenbin reached out and took the luggage in Feng Xiaochen's hand, let him into the room, and then pointed to a bed by the window and said, "Xiao Feng, how about you sleep in this bed? If you are not used to it, we can change it." ”
With two beds in one room, the location by the window is undoubtedly better, with more light and at the same time not as noisy as the bed by the door. Wang Zhenbin came earlier than Feng Xiaochen, but he occupied the bed by the door and left a good place for his later roommates, this small detail made Feng Xiaochen feel a little good about him. Wang Zhenbin knew Feng Xiaochen's situation in advance, whether in terms of seniority or administrative level, Wang Zhenbin was higher than Feng Xiaochen, and he could still act in such a low-key manner under such circumstances, which also reflected Wang Zhenbin's attitude towards things.
"Brother Wang, you are older than me, you should sleep by the window, and I will sleep by the door. Feng Xiaochen said politely.
Wang Zhenbin understood that Feng Xiaochen understood the kindness he had released, and he said with a smile: "No need, I slept deeply, and it doesn't matter if I lean against the door." ”
"How is this appropriate?" Feng Xiaochen said, pretending to be embarrassed.
"It's okay, it's fate to be able to live together, so don't worry about that. By the way, don't be a big brother, you still call me Lao Wang. Wang Zhenbin helped Feng Xiaochen put his luggage on the bed by the window, and said happily.
"It's not appropriate to call you Lao Wangba, isn't that inappropriate, isn't this a curse?" Feng Xiaochen said with a wink.
"What's wrong with this, how can it be a scolding ......" Wang Zhenbin didn't realize his speech problem at first, but when he found that Feng Xiaochen's face showed a mocking look, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then reacted, haha smiled: "Haha, I can't see it, you Xiao Feng is quite damaged, I don't pay attention to your way." ”
"You said it yourself, I don't have anything. Feng Xiaochen pretended to be aggrieved and said.
An innocuous joke was made, and the two of them immediately became acquainted. Wang Zhenbin was originally worried that Feng Xiaochen was too young and not easy to get along with. Because a young man like Feng Xiaochen is either a teenager who looks down on older classmates, or he is ashamed of his qualifications and looks cramped in front of him, a qualified official. Now it seems that Feng Xiaochen's performance can be called neither humble nor arrogant, on the one hand, he respects Wang Zhenbin, on the other hand, he is not stage frightened, and he can joke with him very easily. In this way, Wang Zhenbin's two worries were dispelled. Wang Zhenbin's home is also in the capital, but according to the regulations, he also has to live in the dormitory for a while, and it is of course a pleasure to have a cheerful and witty roommate.
"Xiao Feng, you make the bed first, pick up the house, and we'll go out to eat together in a while. There are 6 students in our class, and 5 have arrived yesterday, and you are the last and the eldest in the class. Everyone has already discussed, and as soon as you arrive, let's go out for a small gathering to celebrate the official establishment of the 84-level master's class of our Strategy Institute. ”
