003 Divergence
The master is always on the verge of loneliness and rationality. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Loneliness is due to the uniqueness of the Earth hitting Mars and the anxiety of being cold in high places, while rationality is the openness of seeing all the mountains and the cold in high places.
Lin Tao is undoubtedly the latter.
Different time and space, but with the same life experience.
The very different trajectories of this world have made him more and more able to see the road ahead, and even a small wave can penetrate it very thoroughly.
When the waiter of the hotel tentatively asked, "May I ask if you are Lin Tao", Liu Hong and Lin Guohua suddenly realized that the boy beside them who had taken their daughter to a distant place had a completely different future from everyone else.
Yes!!!
A bout of.
The exclamation broke the already restless atmosphere, and on top of the hustle and bustle, it was even more noisy.
"Oh my God, you're really Lin Tao!"
"You~you~ I, can I take a picture with you? I like you so much!"
"Can you sign it for me, please?"
"Okay, you can take a group photo with an autograph, but you can't like me, I already have someone I like. ā
Hahahaha!
There was a commotion.
Lin Ruonan smiled red with a pink love.
Every woman likes to be held in the palm of her hand and regarded as a treasure by men.
Even Liu Hong couldn't help but secretly feel a little unrelieved.
She knows.
Whether it was her or Lin Guohua, they couldn't stop their daughter from falling into the almost charming whirlpool of beauty in front of her.
Although it is not explicitly stated.
The waiters could actually see that this very beautiful girl must be the person Lin Tao said, but they still nodded happily and hugged Lin Tao in an exaggerated way that was almost dizzy.
"Please don't go out and say okay, we haven't finished our meal yet. ā
"Okay, okay, don't worry, we won't say it. ā
"Okay, no problem, we'll keep it a secret. ā
"Won't say. ā
Naturally, he didn't know that in this small private room, Lin Tao had already completed a small fan meeting, and after taking a photo with the three of them, and after signing their names, the three of them pushed open the door and walked out with some reluctance.
Even before parting, he couldn't help but look at the girl sitting beside Liu Hong with a little envy, maybe in their opinion, Lin Ruonan was already the happiest girl in the world.
Not one of them.
Smiled slightly awkwardly.
Lin Tao didn't know how to hide the shyness and uneasiness on his face.
After such a short episode, the expressions on Liu Hong and Lin Guohua's faces also relaxed a lot.
"Yo he, you kid is terrible now, still a big star, I almost forgot, when will I also send me a set of autographed works, I see that a while ago many people asked me who sent such a set of books to my family Ruonan. ā
Lin Guohua's words were somewhat ridiculous.
Liu Hong is also clear about this.
Since Ruonan's birthday, this kid used the packaging box of Red Star Compound Fertilizer to give Ruonan a box full of Xiaobai's autographed works.
A book was delivered to her school almost every week, and later the head teacher of the 8th middle school made fun of it at the parent-teacher conference.
It is said that in addition to the daily start and end of class, the whole class 8 students wait for another thing every week, and that is to see if the people in the mailroom will come to the door of the classroom to shout.
"Who is called Lin Ruonan, your thing. ā
It must be a collector's edition of Xiaobai's autograph, and it is a different version every time, and the different editions issued by countries around the world are almost enough.
Later, when Lin Guohua talked to Liu Hong about this matter, he also asked what the market value of such a set of books was.
The results of the search undoubtedly took him by surprise.
That's almost a dumbfounded number, which means that unconsciously, his daughter's worth has become higher than that of him.
He even joked.
sold a set of books, and Ruonan almost didn't have to worry about it for the rest of his life.
"Hehehe, Uncle Lin, I really can't help it, it's the one I collect at home, and it's really not as complete as Ruonan's, your request is stumped for me. ā
In addition to smiling bitterly, Lin Tao could only cry and laugh.
Afraid of what comes.
Lin Guohua really doesn't open any pot.
"Yo, there are times when you kid is afraid, no, I can tell you, I'm not bad at home, just send you this set of books, if you don't send this set of books to the house, my daughter, don't think about it, what should you do. ā
"Okay, Uncle Lin, don't say it, I'm relieved to have your words, the book is already in your house, you can read it as much as you like. ā
As soon as this sentence is finished.
Lin Guohua was stunned.
Not good, this kid!
It's on!
"You little bastard--"
Liu Hong and Lin Ruonan were directly amused by Lin Guohua's unbearable appearance, and Ruonan's face was flushed.
Not really.
Lin Guohua dug a pit for himself, and jumped down by himself when he was done.
Lin Tao didn't think about coming back to that set of books, and now that the books are already in the Lin family, are you afraid that he won't agree with this sentence.
Eat it down in one meal.
There are some dangers.
When they left the hotel, the waiters did not go out to talk nonsense, but they still let the owner of the hotel know, and insisted on taking a photo with Lin Tao, but it was difficult to refuse, and they had to be exempted from their orders later.
Lin Tao couldn't help it, so he had to ask the boss for the address, and promised to send him a copy of his autographed work back, and he didn't refuse this time, but he agreed very happily.
I think it's the drunkard's intention not to drink.
The whole afternoon followed.
The two families did not continue to meet, and after they dispersed to go through the enrollment procedures, Lin Guohua and Liu Hong sent Lin Ruonan to the student dormitory.
And Lin Tao and Lin Guocheng and his wife went out to see the house.
With Lin Tao's current conditions, he naturally does not need to continue to live in the student dormitory, and there is no such need, and he does not even have any intention of experiencing student campus life.
Sometimes, experiencing life is just an excuse.
And now, there is no reason for Lin Tao to try.
Even on the campus of Tunghai University, he couldn't stay long when he thought about it, and Lin Guocheng and Jiang Mei obviously had already anticipated their son Lin Tao's thoughts.
That's why before parting, there was a conversation like this.
"Tell me the truth, can you finish this university?"
Lin Guocheng rarely had such a serious tone.
Lin Tao pursed his lips, and his eyes became a little flickering.
In fact, he himself knows better than anyone that it is almost impossible to spend four years on a college campus every day.
Do it all over again.
If you still have the same dream, then this kind of life does not need to be repeated, once is enough.
"Dad, all I can say is try to finish college."
Lin Guocheng and Jiang Mei glanced at each other, the worry in their eyes was extremely obvious, and they seemed to have already guessed that this would be the result.
"What do you call that, try your best? Your mother and I don't have any other requirements, the only thing is that I hope you can finish college well, and we will not object to you in anything you do in the future.
Dad is a person from the past, and the time spent in college is an indispensable life experience for your younger generation, if you give up, it will be too late to regret it in the future, and that kind of life is not perfect. Do you understand?"
Lin Guocheng's somewhat unusually serious tone made Lin Tao a little crying and laughing.
What was your college experience?
Is it really indispensable?
He wanted to tell Lin Guocheng that he didn't lack college experience, but of course, it was just an assumption.
In fact.
Lin Tao does not deny Lin Guocheng's words, no matter how you think about it, the lack of college experience is indeed a pity, but it is not indispensable.
Of course.
Those who think that Bill Gates can become the richest man in the world by dropping out of school don't actually notice that it is a dropout, not a failure to pass the exam, especially at a world-famous university like Harvard.
"Dad, you know my situation, there's no way I'm going to waste four years in school,"
"Waste? How is it a waste of time in college, how many people want to go to Tunghai University, why don't you know how to cherish it.
Oh~ Do you think that if you write a few books and earn a few dollars, you won't have to go to college? What will your children think in the future, you have to tell your children that his son will only write a few novels to earn a few dollars, and he has not even gone to college?
I'm telling you, your mom and I don't care how much money you make, have we ever objected to you writing novels, have we objected to you making movies and doing business? But we have only one requirement from the beginning to the end, and that is that you should finish college honestly. ā
Lin Tao was a little stunned.
This is the first time that his son Lin Guocheng has spoken to him in such a strong tone, or even reprimanded.
But from the eyes of parents.
In fact, Lin Tao can see that whether it is Lin Guocheng or Jiang Mei, their expectations for going to college far exceed what they thought in their hearts.
This made Lin Tao have to recall the pictures in another time and space in his mind.
The thoughts in my heart are racing.
He seemed to weigh the pros and cons.
"Dad, I promise to get my graduation certificate and degree certificate, and I can only agree to your request. ā
Lin Guocheng nodded, but the expression on his face was somewhat lonely.
After all, this little episode in the middle still made Lin Tao a little interested, and he didn't even have time to look at the house, so he went straight to the school dormitory.
Lin Guocheng and Jiang Mei only added a few quilts and daily necessities to their son Lin Tao and returned to Songping.
Until nearly late afternoon and evening, Lin Tao still did not succeed in registering.
Tunghai University.
Faculty of Arts Admissions Office.
The phone rings.
It was Xiao Hong, the director of the school's student affairs department in charge of admissions, who called.
"Teacher Xiao. ā
"How is it? Did Lin Tao come to report?"
"Not yet. ā
"Not yet? Has your college contacted him? Has he been informed of the speech at the freshman ceremony tomorrow morning?"
In the office of the Student Affairs Office.
In addition to Xiao Hong, the other two deputy directors of the Student Affairs Office were also present, and not long ago, the principal's office called to ask about Lin Tao.
As the most eye-catching freshman among the students recruited by Tunghai University this year, Lin Tao did not know much about the news of Tunghai University, and the university has been keeping this issue secret according to Lin Tao's own opinion.
However, it cannot be denied that with Lin Tao's current popularity in China and his influence in the world literary circle, Tunghai University is actually quite proud of Lin Tao's choice of this school this time, so the school plans to let Lin Tao speak at the freshman ceremony this time.
Today, the principal's office has made several phone calls to inquire about this matter, and as the director of the student department, Xiao Hong is very aware of the importance that the school attaches to this matter, so he does not dare to be sloppy.
Actually, she knows it too.
What I'm most afraid of now is not that Lin Tao didn't sign up, but that there are other changes, and no one dares to guarantee that Lin Tao won't choose to go to other schools.
If that happens, the consequences will certainly not be as calm as they seem.
"Teacher Xiao, our college has already contacted Lin Tao before, but since the matter of letting him be the representative of the freshmen has just been decided, it has not yet been notified to him. ā
"Haven't been notified yet, then you should contact him quickly. ā
Smack.
Hanging up the phone, Xiao Hong's face immediately became a little wrong.
Still haven't been notified yet?
What do these people do all day long?
Usually, when you want benefits, you are more active than anyone else, and when you ask for money and projects, no one refuses to lag behind, and when it comes to critical times, none of them can stand up.
"Teacher Xiao, didn't they do a good job over there?"
"I don't think it's good if I don't add to the chaos, forget it, I'll handle this matter myself, you can contact the school office immediately. ā
In fact, at this time, Lin Tao had just arrived in the office building of the Faculty of Arts.
He deliberately lowered the brim of his hat, but no one noticed that the boy with sunglasses next to him was Xiaobai, the author of "Kung Fu Panda".
However, to Lin Tao's surprise, in the exhibition cabinet on the first floor of the administrative service hall of the Faculty of Arts, he actually saw several of his works and his own introduction.
Stunned, he was as thick-skinned as he was, and he couldn't help but blush.
"Principal Liang, in my opinion, it is better to release this news, on the one hand, we promised Lin Tao that we would not announce this situation before the start of school, but now that the school has started, although it is a little immoral, it does not mean that we are dishonest.
On the other hand, it is also beneficial for this news to be published, not only to declare sovereignty, but also to make the media aware of the situation. ā
"No, if Lin Tao is held accountable at that time, none of us can understand what bad impact it will have, so I think it's better to wait. ā
In the principal's office, Xiao Hong's voice was very loud.
She actually understands the thoughts of the school leaders very well, it is nothing more than to publish this news to create an established fact, and it is definitely effective, but this is undoubtedly forcing Lin Tao.
Judging from the news reported by the media, Lin Tao's personality is not so soft, and it is very likely that this will backfire.
"Director Xiao, if he doesn't report today, we will wait until tomorrow? ā
"It's very simple, he didn't come to us to change a freshman to speak, it's not that we have to eat hairy pigs without Lin Butcher. ā
As soon as this sentence is spoken.
Immediately, the entire principal's office fell silent.
Principal Liang Xide nodded and shook his head, as if he was also a little indecided.
"Then do it according to Xiao Hong's opinion, in this way, your student office will first select a student just in case, or if Lin Tao has not reported before 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, notify that student to prepare to speak." This matter is decided, let's go and prepare immediately. ā
Principal Liang's voice just fell.
A brisk ringtone of a mobile phone breaks the quiet atmosphere in the office.
Xiao Hong saw that it was his mobile phone, and when he connected it, a sentence came from inside.
"Mr. Xiao, Lin Tao has already come to sign up, and he promised to speak tomorrow as a freshman representative. ā
Hang up.
Xiao Hong's face immediately burst into laughter. (To be continued.) )
