Stanford?

Zheng Kai's eyes widened.

If it was two years ago, Zheng Kai might not have been able to figure out what school Stanford was.

But now, there is such a world-famous classmate as Zhang Chen. Among the word of mouth of many teachers and students, at least the students of Chonghua No. 1 Middle School, no one does not know what kind of school Stanford is.

At the same level as Harvard and Yale, it is truly the world's top school!

In this era, there are many international students, but there are only a handful of them who can study abroad and go to top universities as undergraduates.

A year later, Liu Yiting, a girl from Chengdu, was admitted to Harvard with a full scholarship, and even caused a heated discussion across the country, and her parents wrote books such as "Harvard Girl Liu Yiting" and "Liu Yiting's Learning Methods and Training Details" sold nearly one million copies across the country.

Zhang Chen still remembers that he was a sophomore at that time, Su Wenjin read this book and taught Zhang Chen a sour lesson.

"Look at people, look at you, you know how to play games every day, and if you have the ability, you can also take the Harvard exam. ”

In the dead of night, the two of them felt sorry for themselves, "You see that other parents educate their children and let their children hold ice cubes to exercise perseverance, Zhang Chen is too poor willpower and does not study well, otherwise 。。。。。 Alas...... ”

At that time, in addition to rolling his eyes, Zhang Chen could only listen honestly.

In that era, Liu Yiting was the "child of someone else's family" to Zhang Chen.

It wasn't until many years later that the media finally broke out that Liu Yiting didn't even have SAT scores back then, and the TOEFL was only qualified.

However, Liu Yiting was able to get a letter of recommendation, and she and her parents carefully studied the preferences and worldview of Americans, and in the interview and media interviews before the interview, they made up a set of rhetoric specifically for Americans to help more people get out of poverty.

If it were placed in China, no one would believe this kind of reason for applying, but how could the Americans have thought that a quiet and innocent little girl could actually say such a false and empty word, and they were moved to tears at that time, thinking that this girl is so amazing, at such a young age, she began to worry about the country and the people, and of course this kind of talent must be recruited.

But this also proves that in this era, studying abroad is a great thing, and being able to study at a prestigious school like Stanford is like Heifer taking a plane - awesome.

Zheng Kai's mind was a little confused for a while: "I didn't understand too much. ”

Zhang Chen pouted and boasted: "That's the case, for various reasons, Stanford rejected my admission application. But since I work with the school in many ways, the school acquiesces that I can get a referral spot, how about it? ”

In the face of Zhang Chen's boasting, Zheng Kai couldn't think of complaining for a while, "Recommended? Doesn't Stanford need to take the test? I haven't taken the TOEFL either?"

Zhang Chen smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this, you just need to think about whether to go or not." ”

said so, but Zhang Chen didn't think that Zheng Kai would disagree, and continued: "However, you have to be mentally prepared, even if you enter Stanford, it doesn't mean that you will definitely graduate." Coursework at Stanford is also very stressful, and it is home to some of the brightest and hardest working geniuses in the world. But even they often fail their courses. Also, unlike domestic universities, Stanford focuses more on stimulating students' creative thinking... ”

"Stop, stop, stop. Zheng Kai rubbed his temples, "You let me think about it." ”

Zhang Chen rolled his eyes: "What is there to consider about this? Zheng Kai, you won't say you won't go, right?"

Zheng Kai opened his mouth, wanted to speak and stopped, Zhang Chen knew his friend's character too well, and when he saw Zheng Kai like this, he couldn't help but be surprised and asked, "You don't want to go?"

Zheng Kai was entangled for a long time, "You asked me to think about it, but I really didn't think about it." ”

Zhang Chen's curiosity was aroused, how could Zheng Kai want to refuse such a good opportunity? This is completely unreasonable?

Regardless of his previous life or present life, Zhang Chen is confident that he knows Zheng Kai well enough as a friend. Zheng Kai is not the kind of hypocritical person, if it was Zheng Kai in his previous life, he would definitely agree to Zhang Chen without hesitation.

Zhang Chen's eyes rolled, and he felt that this matter was not simple, there must be an inside story, and he was about to be asked, but he heard a girl's voice sounding from the door of the small noodle restaurant.

"Zheng Kai, why did you come out to eat so early? Elder Liu was still asking where you were just now。。。。。 Ahh ”

Zhang Chen fixed his eyes and saw that he was familiar and knew Wang Ran, the original president of the school's student union and secretary of the Youth League.

Zhang Chen hurriedly made a shushing gesture at Wang Ran, he and Zheng Kai deliberately came over to eat noodles before noon, just to avoid the classmates who were eating at noon, but they didn't expect to meet Wang Ran here.

Wang Ran also had two classmates beside him, a man and a woman, of course the two of them also recognized Zhang Chen, and they were both a little excited, eager to try, but also a little timid, and didn't dare to talk.

The legend of the school, countless people around me heard that they were from Chonghua No. 1 Middle School, and they would ask them if they knew Zhang Chen, but they didn't expect to meet them in this small noodle restaurant today.

Zhang Chen noticed that as soon as these three people appeared, Zheng Kai's whole person froze.

Wang Ran looked at Zhang Chen's gestures, lowered his volume, sat beside Zheng Kai unceremoniously, and said happily: "I'm Wang Ran, remember?"

Zhang Chen looked at Zheng Kai, who was slightly embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Of course, the talented girl of our school, the big leader of the student union, how can you not remember? These two classmates, there is still a stool there, come and sit together." Have you eaten it? Boss, add three bowls of noodles and knot them together. ”

Wang Ran sneered: "You are all world-class rich, so invite our old classmates to eat this?"

Zhang Chen shook his head: "Alas, the landlord's family has no surplus food, so you can take care of it." ”

Zheng Kai's expression was a little more natural: "Why did you get out of class so early? It's only eleven o'clock now, isn't it going to end at twelve o'clock?"

Wang Ran shrugged his nose: "It's not Da Lao Liu, I made a set of rolls by myself, and the school printing house didn't give them printing, so I had to go to the logistics to find the mimeograph machine, and carved the rolls by hand, and it took me a morning to finish it, and my hands were full of ink, and it took a long time to wash it off." ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "Da Lao Liu actually asked you girls to do this, no wonder you are still single in your fifties." Didn't this kind of work always be done by freshmen in the student union? Why do you do it yourself?"

"Call the idlers. Wang Ran pouted, and just wanted to explain a few more words, when he heard Zheng Kai next to him interject: "Do you want to help?" I'm done eating, I'll go over to help you in a while." ”

Wang Ran waved his ponytail and said indifferently: "No, it's just a set of cloze fill-in-the-blanks, which has already been printed." ”

A few people chatted for a while, and Zhang Chen saw that there were more and more people eating, so he took out ten yuan, settled the face money of several people, and wanted to change places with Zheng Kai to continue chatting.

"I said Miss, Zheng Kai and I went to the Shangdao Coffee next to me to talk about things, why did you come along? You don't have to go to class in the afternoon? This is about to take the college entrance examination." Zhang Chen looked at Wang Ran, who had been following the two of them, and pretended to be displeased.

Wang Ran smiled: "I know, but I don't have to take the college entrance examination." ”

"Don't need the college entrance examination?" Zhang Chen blinked and said suddenly, "Escorted?"

Wang Ran's ponytail seemed to be about to curl, and his eyes were bent into two crescents: "Smart, Xiamen University, major in statistics." ”

"Oh~~~Xiamen University~~~" Zhang Chen glanced meaningfully at Zheng Kai, who was cramped and embarrassed, "I see." ”

Tomorrow the double change will be supplemented
