Jiang Shuiyuan was a little incredulous: "Now that the division of subjects has not yet begun, there are still two years before the college entrance examination, and every one of them may happen, who knows what kind of reversal will occur in the future?

"You're right, anything is possible until the final result is out. However, judging from the current shape, at least you are the one closest to the top liberal arts in our school, after all, now with the fourth place in the provincial Chinese Studies Difficult Selection Competition, the first prize in the New Concept Essay Contest and other bonus projects, you are already one position ahead of others. To know how much effort does others have to spend on the 20 points of the first prize of the new concept essay alone?" Zhu Qingjia explained, "Just like the 150-point Chinese test paper, 130 points is already outstanding, and if you want to take an extra 10 points, it requires not only hard work, but also great luck." And your luck is never worse than anyone else's!"

Jiang Shui said in his heart: That's when you didn't see my bad luck!

Zhu Qingjia thought of another important question: "By the way, did you bring the certificate and medal to the school?"

"Not really. What's wrong?"

"Remember to bring it over in the afternoon, and when the time comes, we will take a group photo, and then I will have the capital to brag and show off: look, the student I teach has won the first prize in the New Concept Essay Competition!" Zhu Qingjia advised, "I guess not only I want to take a photo with you, but also other teachers and students, maybe the school will also send someone to take a picture and save it in the school history file." So try to dress neatly if possible!"

"Uh...... Alright!"

Jiang Shuiyuan can already imagine that in the next few days, the circle of friends and dynamics of teachers and students in Huai'an Mansion Middle School will be swept up by such news: "Boom! This is the winner of the first prize of this year's new concept composition", "Too talented, Huai'an Mansion Lieutenant Colonel won the first prize of the new concept", "Don't miss it, the latest beautiful photos of the first prize winner of the new concept". Of course, in each photo, he is a supporting role, and the protagonist will be photoshopped by each other.

"Remember, you must stick to your opinions, and don't be fooled. I don't know the south, south, west, and north!" Zhu Qingjia told Jiang Shuiyuan again before pushing open the office door with Jiang Shuiyuan: "Leaders, I brought someone to you, this is our senior one (2) class leader and the first prize winner of Group B of this year's New Concept Essay Competition, Jiang Shuiyuan." ”

There were three middle-aged people in the room, two men and one woman, who all stood up when they heard this. Among them, the man with a leading temperament said with a smile: "Needless to introduce, a large photo of classmate Jiang hangs at the school gate every day. You can see when you raise your eyes, who of us doesn't know him? It can be said that only 12 out of 10 people in the whole school know us, and 78 out of 10 people know Jiang. When it comes to popularity, a few of us can't beat it!"

"Principal Zhang said with a smile, who in our school doesn't know you?" Zhu Qingjia opened his eyes and said nonsense, then turned his head to Jiang Shuiyuan and said: "Jiang Shuiyuan, this is Principal Zhang Qianqiao Zhang who is in charge of teaching in our school, and next to him is Director Li Ju Li of the Teaching and Research Department of our school." This one is the leader of our grade, you should know everything, right?"

Jiang Shuiyuan retorted in his heart, and on the surface, he still said very respectfully: "Hello, President Zhang, Director Li, and Team Leader He!"

Not long ago, I heard that the debate team of the Kodansha of Chinese Studies with you as the main general won the fourth place in the provincial selection competition, and I was still thinking about when I would be able to meet this young talent, but I was busy with the mock exam of the third grade of high school, and I couldn't take a break. I didn't expect you to go to the next city and win the first prize in the New Concept Essay Competition. I'm going to be busy now. I'll have to take the time to see you, the hero who has won honor for the school several times. First, on behalf of the school, I would like to congratulate you on your achievements, and secondly, I hope you can continue to work hard. Keep adding to the school!"

Li Ju saw that Jiang Shuiyuan was still standing, and hurriedly beckoned him to sit down: "Xiao Jiang, sit down! I have been famous for you for a long time, and every time the exam is over, your test paper is taken to our teaching and research department for careful analysis, and it has become one of the important indicators for judging the test paper. If you get a perfect score or close to a perfect score. As long as you are more than 10 points away from the full score, there will definitely be deviations and strange questions on the test paper, and others should not think about doing well. But what I admire even more is your Chinese culture skills and writing ability, as long as there are ancient texts and ancient poems to read on the test paper, you have never missed it, and many times your composition has been used as a model essay. Recited throughout the grades. This time, I won the first prize in the New Concept Essay Competition, which is also expected!"

He Qufei added: "Jiang Shuiyuan is not only good at Chinese, but also good at all subjects, ranking in the top three in all the exams of our grade, and most of the time he is the first. The key young man is still very energetic! I have only one son, no daughters. But if I want to have a daughter, whether I am of the right age or not, I will tie him up and get engaged to him first!"

"Hahahaha, you old He!" Zhang Qianqiao and Li Ju leaned back with laughter, "Then you still don't want your wife to give birth to a girl quickly?"

Zhu Qingjia smiled on the side, while Jiang Shuiyuan looked up at the sky: What day is it? Why does it take whoever it is, to sing praises when they meet? Could it be that today's top hats are delivered for free, and one is given to everyone?

After laughing, Zhang Qianqiao pretended to be unintentional and asked, "By the way, Jiang Shuiyuan, what did you choose for the liberal arts and sciences sub-subject?"

"Science!"

"It's actually science!" Zhang Qianqiao looked shocked, but he didn't know how much of it was true or false in this shock, "Your foundation in Chinese studies is so solid, and you can learn history and geography with half the effort; you can write articles so well, let alone Chinese." Why did you choose science? It can't be that your parents forced it? Twisted melons aren't sweet!"

"No, studying science is my choice and hobby!"

Zhang Qianqiao was even more shocked: "Then your parents didn't consider letting you study liberal arts? Respecting the student's own wishes is important, but the student's vision and vision are limited after all, as a parent, you should consider the whole situation from many aspects, you can't blindly follow the student's choice, nor can you follow the social value orientation and go with the flow, but you should try your best to teach your children according to their aptitude, and strive to let their children become talents as soon as possible!"

Li Ju also shook his head and sighed: "In recent years, the popular ideas in society of 'emphasizing science over literature' and 'governing the country through science and engineering' are really overkill! At that time, Mr. Sun Baixi, the father of the country, began in the late Qing Dynasty, and the background of the times was the backwardness of the country, the invasion of foreign enemies, the four books and the five classics, and the eight imperial examinations were popular, and science and technology were denounced as miraculous and ingenious, and were not valued by scholars. In order to save the country, he put forward the concept of 'emphasizing science and ignoring literature' and 'governing the country through science and engineering', vigorously promoting science and engineering education and popularizing science and technology. In the following decades, the effect of resisting strong enemies from outside and saving people's livelihood from within was very significant, and indeed the national strength was greatly developed.

"However, now that the world pattern has become stable, and the living environment around the country has also been greatly improved, maintaining economic stability and improving social governance are the mainstream of governance. Whether it is economics, politics, management, or law, these are all the fields of liberal arts, and how can we solve problems with professional knowledge in physics, chemistry, hydropower, and minerals? The times are different, in the words of Lu Jia in the Han Dynasty: 'If you live right away, you would rather be able to rule it immediately?' In the next few decades, after all, it will be the world of liberal arts students! As young people, you should take a long-term view and seize the opportunity!

Jiang Shuiyuan smiled: "No matter what era it is, there is no shortage of people in society who are engaged in airplanes, build ships, and do basic scientific research, right? As for governing the country, naturally there are those meat eaters from high-ranking families, so we ordinary people should honestly do some practical things!"

Zhang Qianqiao's eyes widened: "Young people must have the courage to forge ahead, and they must have the ambition and ambition to take the world as their own responsibility and study for China! How old are you, Xiao Jiang, why are you so gloomy? Our school was founded by Mr. Sun Baixi, the father of the nation, and has always breathed and shared the same fate with the rise and fall of the country. You should inherit the feelings of your predecessors for the country,-"

"Study science and engineering, science and technology to serve the country?" Jiang Shuiyuan replied. If he remembers correctly, this should be a sentence from Du Chengcheng, the first winner of the Sun Yuanqi International Outstanding Young Scientist Award trained in Huai'an Fuzhong, to his alma mater, which was mentioned in the training materials for admission.

"It's to study liberal arts, for the country and the people!" Zhang Qianqiao corrected angrily.

Jiang Shuiyuan asked innocently: "Isn't it possible to study science for the country and the people?" (To be continued......)
