Chapter 1 What sad news
2010, Huaguo, Beijing.
Looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, listening to the noisy cars and firecrackers in his ears, Liu Feng, who was standing at the door of the mobile phone business hall, rubbed his cold palms and tightened the down jacket on his body, and then felt a little warmth.
It is the cold of February, alone in a foreign land as a stranger, every festival to miss relatives.
It's already the Spring Festival, and Liu Feng, who should spend such an important festival with his family, still has to guard this broken business hall!
Why didn't he come home?
Because of life, of course......
Well, to speak human words.
In fact, it was because the owner of the mobile phone business hall went home for the New Year during the winter vacation, but Liu Feng volunteered to stay.
After all, he has 3 times his salary in the past few days of the Spring Festival, and he usually only earns 100 yuan a day when he works part-time, but it is 300 yuan these days!
A wave of rational analysis, 300 yuan a day, 7 days is 2100 yuan, then if it is another 10 days and a half months, he can make up his tuition this year!
Of course, Liu Feng also knows that the country will naturally not give him this kind of opportunity, and he can have a 7-day holiday with 3 times his salary, except for the Spring Festival, what else is there?
But even if he only works for a week, that's an income of 2,100 yuan! You know, his food expenses for a month are only 500 yuan, and he has already earned the food expenses for the next semester!
However, during the Spring Festival, there were few people in this broken business hall, and Liu Feng was also idle and bored, looking at the lively crowd coming and going on the street, he couldn't help but come to the door.
On the street outside the business hall, from time to time, well-dressed children set off beautiful fireworks, chasing and playing on the side, and the parents and relatives on the side talked and laughed one by one.
When he was young, he was like this, although he was not from a good family since he was a child, but every Chinese New Year, he could wear new clothes and shoes, and set off fireworks with his children......
I couldn't help but take out my phone......
But he put it down again, he wanted to call his parents, but when he thought that he had only called yesterday and called again today, his parents were afraid that he would nag him to waste the phone bill again.
Shaking his head helplessly, Liu Feng looked at the chasing pedestrians on the street with envy, and fell into deep thought......
Liu Feng, an undergraduate student in the Department of Applied Chemistry in the College of Science of Beijing University of Chemical Technology, is currently in his freshman year, and will be in the second semester in a few days. When he first filled in the volunteer, he inexplicably chose the major of applied chemistry, but as soon as he entered the school, he heard the seniors who were about to graduate say that applied chemistry is a painful major, because I really don't know what this major can do!
Those who are engaged in chemical industry are not as competitive as learning chemical technology, those who are engaged in analysis but can't do chemical analysis, and those who are engaged in biology must not be able to do biology...... This panacea profession seems to be able to do anything, but it's not good at anything, in short, it's a big pit anyway!
There are only two conventional ways out, either to continue to study in graduate school and get a diploma in the future, or to engage in academic research without starving to death, or to simply change careers! It is almost impossible to reach the pinnacle of life in this major!
Liu Feng burst into tears.
…………
"Hey, Fengzi, it's hard work, I'll bring you some dumplings for the New Year. Just as Liu Feng stared at the crowd passing on the road, a dark-skinned man in a brown leather jacket came to his side and patted him on the shoulder, while the other hand was carrying a packing box, which was dispersing hot air.
The man in the jacket is named Meng Xiangning, who is studying chemistry at Beijing University of Chemical Technology like Liu Feng, and is also his roommate, known as Lao Meng, is the president of this year's student union, and is also the leader of these part-time students.
On a cold day, Lao Meng also brought him steaming dumplings, but his hands and face were frozen blue and purple.
"Lao Meng!" Liu Feng was very moved, and hurriedly took the packing box, and was a stranger in a foreign land, Lao Meng really deserved to be a brother in a dormitory, his voice was a little choked, and he only heard him: "Thank you!"
"Hey, they're all brothers, what are you thanking you for! Let's go, it's a cold day, what are you doing standing at the door? Which beautiful woman do you fancy? Go in and blow the heater!" A cold wind blew, Meng Xiangning was blown into a cold war, and hurriedly hugged Liu Feng and walked into the business hall.
…………
Watching Liu Feng finish eating the dumplings, Lao Meng nodded: "Fengzi, school will start in a few days, shouldn't your part-time job here be put away, I heard that the school will charge a retake fee of 1,000 for each retake of the discipline in the future......
"What??" Liu Feng just wanted to finish the rest of the soup, but when he heard this amazing news, he was immediately choked, "Ahem! What's the matter, didn't the seniors say that they don't need money to rebuild?"
I have to say that because he often works part-time, Liu Feng failed a lot of subjects last semester, he thought that he would work hard this year, and when he earned enough money, it would not be too late to retake it next year, anyway, it doesn't cost money to retake it!
You must know that in college, if you fail the main course exam, that is, you will not be able to complete the course, especially if you fail the compulsory course!
Of course, there are two ways to remedy, one is to come back in the new semester to make up the exam, and the make-up exam will pass, but even if the make-up exam is full score, the final score will only be a pitiful 60 points;
Another way to remedy it is to retake it, retake it, as the name suggests, is to retake the course, and finally count it into the subject grade for the highest score!
Liu Feng planned to retake, after all, in the past, the seniors of the University relied on continuous retaking to brush up their high grade points (GPA), but what they didn't expect was that when they were in this session, the school would have to charge a retake fee!
MMP! They're so unlucky this time!
When I just graduated from junior high school, I had nine years of compulsory education, and I didn't charge tuition fees in junior high school in the future; when I just graduated from high school, the college entrance examination was reformed and the burden was reduced; and now TM has just entered university, and I have to pay for teaching fees to retake courses!
Liu Feng scolded in his heart, of course, I don't know how many children's shoes who had the same experience as Liu Feng were also scolding together!
After careful calculation, the minimum fee for retaking a course is 1,000 yuan, and 2 courses are 2,000 yuan, and he has hung up 5 courses!
5 courses, that's 5,000 yuan!
Liu Feng counted quietly with his fingers, it seems that the part-time job last semester, we almost only earned so little......
MMP again!
"Lao Meng, what's the matter, you won't be joking!" Liu Feng stared at Lao Meng with straight eyes, expecting to see a hint of mischief in his expression.
"Hey, it's not the new principal who will take office next semester!" It's a pity that Lao Meng is not as unskilled as him, and he never does tricks on people.
Chicly took out Zhongnanhai from his pocket, lit it, and then took two puffs hard, only to hear Lao Meng say eloquently: "The new official took office with three fires, and this first fire will burn to us scumbags!"
I also just got the news from the student union.
Fengzi, there are still a few days left, just prepare well, fortunately, there is a chance to make up the exam at the beginning of the school, although there are only 60 points after the exam, but it is better than spending money to retake it!"
The choking smell of smoke bypassed, Liu Feng couldn't help but sigh, because he couldn't smell the smell of smoke, and he never smoked, so he fanned the wind in disgust, and only heard Liu Feng say: "Stop, stop, stop! You old smoker, you are not afraid of your sister-in-law's disgust!"
The moment he spoke, a strong smell of smoke entered his lungs, Liu Feng finally couldn't help it, and hurriedly got up and came to the door, opened the curtain, and breathed in the fresh air.
"Your sister-in-law never stopped me from smoking. Seeing this, Lao Meng shook his head, these days, how can there be a man who is wandering outside who does not smoke.
extinguished the cigarette, Lao Meng then walked to the door, patted Liu Feng on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, Fengzi, I'm leaving, read well, don't work hard for a year, all of them have contributed to the school!"
"Damn~,~! Lao Tzu has hung 5 doors!" Breathing in the fresh air, Liu Feng's turbid lungs felt better, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but scold.
"Hehe, you kid, you know you're in a hurry now! Don't be afraid, with your IQ, you can temporarily hold the Buddha's feet, just 60 points, what is it, I'm optimistic about you!"
"Fuck off, schadenfreude thing, aren't you a bad guy!"
"I'm sorry, I only hung 2 doors......"
"Get out!
……
Seeing Lao Meng's back disappear into the crowd, Liu Feng reluctantly withdrew his gaze, turned around and saw the empty business hall, and couldn't help but sigh.
Looking back on high school, he was also a top student, but he didn't expect that in the first semester of college, he would have hung up 5 classes, if he was known by his high school friends, he wouldn't be laughed to death!
You know, in the first semester of their freshman year, they only had 6 courses!
They applied chemistry class 09, except for another unlucky buddy who hung up, he was the one who hung up the most, and now, he is really a scumbag......
Thinking of this, Liu Feng was very unwilling.
He didn't plan to take the make-up exam, after all, no matter how good the make-up exam is, the transcript only shows a humiliating 60 points, for those students who just want to mix up a graduation certificate, 60 points may be long live, but for a high-quality young man like him who has big ambitions and is destined to become a top student, 60 points, it is simply an insult!
After all, he's still preparing for Baoyan!
60 points, even if he finally guaranteed to go to graduate school, he felt ashamed when he thought that his mentor would stare at his transcript repeatedly!
Shame on you!
But there is no way, as soon as he thinks that it will cost 1,000 to retake a course, Liu Feng feels as if his heart and liver have been slashed with a knife.
