Chapter 348: The peach is dying, scorching its bloom
Some people make up their minds, but they often give up halfway, and some people will never give up once they have established their destination, and they will never give up until they reach their goals.
This girl who is soft and weak on the outside, but her inner will is stronger than steel, and she has always been fighting for her goal!
For two years, she deliberately avoided the pressure brought to her by the name Liu Feng on the one hand, and on the other hand, she had no holidays and no entertainment activities, and even her friend Sun Xiaoxiao, she rarely stayed with her now
Every day at 7 o'clock in the morning, she returned to the dormitory at 11 o'clock in the evening, eating and sleeping and studying, working hard all the time, so she has been crazy for two years, her GPA has been as high as 3.9, and she has even published two papers in SCI!
All this is just to be able to catch up with that person's footsteps, because in her Zhuo Tingting's dictionary, there is never a word called giving up!
It's finally time for my junior year, and it's time to hand in a satisfactory answer sheet.
Because that guy's mentor chose Duan Xue, she also applied for Academician Duan Xue's graduate school.
Originally, she was very confident because her grades were always the first in her grade!
However, providence is like a knife.
Is it so difficult for an academician to be a graduate student? And how did that person do it in the first place?
At this moment, Zhuo Tingting once again felt the gap between herself and the person she was at the beginning, two years later, can't she catch up with him two years ago?
A sense of powerlessness instantly rose from her heart, and she really wanted to cry!
However, after suddenly seeing the invitation letter in the attachment at the end of the email......
"Tingting, what's wrong with you. ”
The night of Chinese New Year's Eve on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve should have been a happy day, but her daughter was holding her mobile phone, looking unwilling, Li Li quickly put down the knitting needle in her hand and said with concern.
"No, nothing. Zhuo Tingting came to her senses and turned off her mobile phone in a panic, "Mom, I'm going to go to school for an interview in the second year of junior high school, and I won't go to my uncle's side for the New Year." ”
There was already a smile on his face.
Li Li: "???"
Interview?
For the New Year, what to try?
Jian Mei raised and raised: "Tingting, what are you trying to do for the New Year? You shouldn't have something to hide from me, right?"
"Mom, it's really an interview. Zhuo Tingting's face outlined a happy smile, but quickly concealed it, explaining, "Isn't it almost my third year, I have been fighting for the opportunity to study for research, and I received an interview invitation from Professor Liu today, at 9 o'clock in the morning of the second year of junior high school." ”
"What interview has to start in the second year of junior high school, the ...... of the Chinese New Year" frowned, Li Li's heart was full of resentment and suspicion about this professor surnamed Liu, "Besides, didn't I listen to you say that I voted for Academician Duan Xue's resume before, how did I become Professor Liu again?"
Zhuo Tingting took the initiative to explain: "Mom, he is a dignified dynamite award winner, how can he be a liar? The reason why he put it in the second year of junior high school interview is because people are busy, you see, he doesn't have time to go home for reunion during the New Year, and he still has to work!"
Dynamite Award winner?
Liu Feng?
Zhuo Mu was stunned.
Although she is not engaged in scientific research, she is also a middle school teacher, Liu Feng's famous name has spread all over the world, and has already become the idol of young people in the new era of China, and she usually uses Liu Feng to motivate her classmates.
- Students, come on, the next Liu Feng is you!
Well, I am still working on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and it is really not unreasonable for people to be able to win the explosives award and achieve so many results.
Nodding.
Unexpectedly, his daughter won the favor of this one!
At this moment, Li Li's face was also full of admiration for this young legendary professor, but she was still a little relieved: "Why don't I go with you in the second year of junior high school?"
"Mom, no need!" Zhuo Tingting hurriedly waved her hand, a trace of panic flashed on her face, "Uncle invited us to celebrate the New Year, it's already very bad if I don't go, if you don't go, my uncle will be unhappy." Besides, how can there be a graduate student interview with a mother. ”
"Yes," Li Li nodded helplessly, not noticing her daughter's fleeting panic.
She and her husband have been divorced for many years, and there is only one brother on the relatives' side, and the only brother invited them to the New Year, which is really hard to excuse;
"Alright then, you have to be safe, and you must call me if there is anything. ”
"Mom, don't worry!" Holding her mother's hand, the corners of Zhuo Tingting's mouth finally hooked up a smile.
My baby daughter has grown up!
Looking at her daughter's expression of leaping and trying, Li Li could only sigh helplessly.
It's just that she always feels that something is wrong here, but she can't say what is wrong......
……
Soon, two days passed in the blink of an eye.
In Liu Feng's expectation, the students who can still come for an interview on the second day of the Lunar New Year are definitely the kind of students who have a strong desire to apply for his graduate school, so this step excludes those speculators who are not determined to apply for the examination and just want to hug the grass and beat the rabbit and hug one by one.
In fact, it is exactly what it is.
Of the 40 lists he screened, only 19 people finally came to Beijing University of Chemical Technology, less than half of them, and this also includes Zhuo Tingting.
Looking at the familiar figure, still slim and elegant, but she was much more beautiful than the one in her memory, Liu Feng felt a little guilty in his heart;
How cruel her original decision was to her, like a budding azalea, but the rhizome was instantly cut off at the moment when she was just about to bloom.
It's just that he knows that his decision is right, whether it is for her, for himself, or even for his senior sister, it is the best choice.
Now it's different from the past, but the senior sister hasn't contacted him anymore, and I heard that she has gone abroad.
He didn't go up to say hello, because he knew that such an occasion was not appropriate.
Nodding, he lined up these people on a first-come, first-served basis and began the interview.
The first interviewer is a tall and delicate young lady with oblique bangs, professional attire, and a very temperamental young lady.
It's just that for him, whether his appearance is clear or not, and whether he has temperament or not is not the point.
Glancing at his resume, Liu Feng cleared his throat and asked.
"Xu Qiuling, is it?"
The young lady smiled slightly, and did not have stage fright because of the weight of Liu Feng's dynamite award winner or the momentum of being in the 'top position' for a long time, she nodded confidently, revealing a crisp and beautiful voice like a yellow bird: "Yes!"
Confident people always have a special aura, Liu Feng couldn't help but look at her twice, nodded and said, "You are from Shuimu University?"
"Yes!"
"Then why do you want to apply for my graduate school?"
Xu Qiuling continued: "Because I plan to absorb nutrients on a higher academic platform, realize the value of my life, and dedicate my youth to the cause of scientific research, and you are the only winner of the Dynamite Award in China, there is a higher academic platform I want here." ”
The index finger tapped on the table, and Liu Feng was noncommittal:
"You are indeed very honest! However, although I have won the Dynamite Chemistry Prize, I am now only a professor at the University of Chemical Engineering, which is not as good as Mizuki University, and I have been doing research in physics lately, so I may not be able to provide you with enough support in chemistry. ”
The young lady was faintly disappointed, but quickly adjusted her rhythm:
"The mountain is not high and there is a fairy, the water is not deep and there is a dragon and the spirit, how much a person can make can only depend on himself in the end; although Huada is not as good as Mizuki as a whole, but in the field of chemistry, her platform is not weak, which does not affect anyone who aspires to be an academic, this point, Dashen, you are not the best example?"
Talking!
This sycophant made him feel comfortable from the inside out!
It's just that this is not enough to make him release the water: "Then why did you choose materials chemistry? You know, in this area, China has always been far worse than abroad, which is not very friendly to your future future." ”
"It is precisely because the direction of materials chemistry in China has always been worse than that in foreign countries that I should choose this direction. After all, if even those of us don't study the materials, won't we in China be even more controlled by others in the future?"
"I also always believe in a sentence, hard work pays off, just like you, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will eventually be able to catch up with or even surpass the advanced level of foreign countries. When I first read in the news that your 'porous carbon fiber microcrystalline graphite oxide composite' changed the way the whole world drinks water, and finally won the glory for the country and won the Explosives Chemistry Award, I knew that my choice must be the right one. ”
The young lady is really good at talking!
Look at what Liu Feng said, I'm a little embarrassed.
coughed lightly, only to hear Liu Feng say: "Very good, worthy of encouragement." ”
Subsequently, Liu Feng casually asked two technical questions, and the young lady also answered them one by one.
A few minutes later.
Liu Feng: "That's all for the interview, you can go to the outside staff to reimburse the round-trip bus (plane) ticket! Regardless of whether you will be admitted or not, the result will be notified to you within a week." ”
Xu Qiuling's eyes lit up, and two cute little dimples appeared on her face: "Then thank you, teacher." ”
However, when she went out, Liu Feng marked a big 'X' on her resume.
This young lady gives him the feeling that it is very utilitarian, well, although everyone has a utilitarian heart, he also expresses a considerable understanding of this;
But considering the reality of the situation, in the past few years, he really can't provide them with too many resources, and the final result is probably dissatisfaction, this person is likely to be resentful of himself, and then it will affect the harmony between their master and apprentice, and even the laboratory, so he can only regretfully rule it out.
After a few minutes of rest, the second interview also began quickly.
This interviewer is from Sichuan University, a boy, and the letter of recommendation given by Academician Arida Xuelin is still Liu Feng's Jiangzhou hometown.
Therefore, it is easy to gain the favor of the examiner.
I saw Liu Feng show a kind smile and asked, "Is Du Hong really?"
Hearing his question, Du Hong nodded quickly, his whole body tensed, and he said nervously: "Yes, yes!"
Seeing his nervous appearance, Liu Feng sighed.
Alas, another honest man!
To be honest, he himself is also an 'honest man', an honest person means that he is not good at words and expression, but when interviewing, the ability to express himself is the most important, so it is very easy for an honest person to suffer in this regard.
Moreover, the purpose of this interview, in addition to training a few graduate students, Liu Feng also plans to recruit assistants for himself, so the ability to deal with each other is very important.
However, Liu Feng still planned to give him a chance, because this was his fellow countryman, and his professional results were really good, otherwise he would not have been recommended by Academician Tian.
So, after thinking about it, he continued: "You introduce yourself first. ”
Still very nervous: "My name is Du and Du Hong, 21 years old, from the School of Materials Science and Technology of Shuchuan University......"
Fortunately, although this classmate is very nervous, there is still no problem in speaking, although he is a little stumbling, at least he can clearly express his meaning, and he will deal with people outside a few more times in the future, and it is not impossible to cultivate.
Nodding.
Liu Feng asked a few more professional questions to confirm Du Hong's professional standards, and then asked him about his motivation for applying for his graduate school.
In short, he is indeed an honest man, he will answer whatever Du Hong asks, and he has no scheming at all; and, in terms of materials, this person's talent is indeed very good, and the only flaw is that he is too honest.
Seeing that 9 minutes had passed, Liu Feng ended the questioning and spoke.
"That's it for the interview, you can go to the outside staff to reimburse the round-trip bus (plane) ticket, although it may be a little less...... Well, in short, the result of the interview will be notified to you within a week, regardless of whether you will be accepted or not. !”
Hearing that the interview was over, Du Hong breathed a sigh of relief and nodded and said thank you.
However, looking at the bitter smile on his face, Liu Feng felt that this fellow villager might not have much hope for his interview results.
Sighing, Liu Feng still said a "question mark" in the upper right corner of his resume, which means to be determined.
Liu Feng's interview does not have a fixed process, and he even asks wherever he thinks of it, giving people a feeling of a starry sky.
After interviewing 18 students, I finally got to the last one......
Obviously, a very thoughtful guy moved Zhuo Tingting's interview to the end.
Knock on the door, close the door, sit down, and look at each other.
At this moment, in the office, the atmosphere seemed quite silent, only the breathing sound of the two sounded, and even in the silence, it seemed a little weird.
Long
Finally, Liu Feng spoke first.
"You, are you alright?"
As soon as he said that, Liu Feng instantly wanted to slap himself a few times, feeling that he was so fake.
It's not who resolutely abandoned a beautiful period that has not yet begun, but now they come to ask people if they are okay?
And in the eyes of some people, he has long been a scumbag!
For example, in the eyes of Sun Xiaoxiao, the female ticket of his good friend Shi Shang.
At the beginning, he remembered that on the night of the showdown with Zhuo Tingting, what kind of energy did this little girl who was only as tall as his shoulders burst out, and scolded him for three hours on the phone!
Although he never regretted his decision, and that was what a responsible man should do.
After the greeting, Zhuo Tingting didn't speak, her eyes just stared at him, her expression was either angry or angry.
Finally, Liu Feng's gaze began to dodge.
At this moment, he even felt even greater than when he faced the Great Elder, and he even had a feeling that the other party would beat him up, and he was afraid that it would be better.
Merely......
"Poof!" staring at Liu Feng and dodging his gaze, Zhuo Tingting snorted and laughed, like a budding flower bone, finally blooming at this moment.
"Ah Feng, you're still ...... like that" The voice was still soft, like a thrush, "Actually, I don't blame you. ”
"But I want you to blame me, blame me, and even hate me. ”
Listening to this soft answer, Liu Feng only smiled bitterly.
