Chapter 55: Idle Learning to Drive, Keeping Promises
Jenny's eyes were full of disappointment.
Lin Yi endured his fatigue and chose a restaurant to pick up the wind and wash the dust for his friends.
After eating and drinking, Jenny pulled out a book: "The first part of 'Wasteland' has been published in England. Although there was a lot of controversy, the market responded enthusiastically. Therefore, Mr. Xu went to New York ahead of schedule. Oversee the publication work here. When my mission was complete, I came to San Francisco to see you. ”
Convincing parents and agreeing to a transnational relationship, but the other party did not take the initiative to mention it, it must have not succeeded. Sunflower was informed and took the initiative to introduce the rapid development of Paradise Game in the past month.
The more prominent Phelan achieves, the easier their romance becomes. So when she heard the good news, Jenny's facial lines immediately softened.
The next day, Lin Yi suggested: "Jenny, Phelan is in Delaware, if you want to see him, I will reimburse you for your travel expenses." As a CEO, he should always have some special treatment. ”
After thinking for a moment, Jenny shook her head: "I still won't delay his work." Moreover, I heard from the girl that she would be back in a few days. ”
Putting aside the love thread for a moment, the English girl asked rhetorically: "There are three of you, but I see that there is only one car in the garage? Don't tell me that you can't drive when you come to the country on wheels!"
Xiang Yanghua snatched the conversation and said full of sadness: "Don't mention it! I really didn't expect that Britain and the United States all speak English, and driving is completely different! One is on the left and the other is on the right." Although Brother Yi has a driver's license, I don't dare to let him drive it. ”
"When Phelan was there, we rubbed his car. If he leaves, he'll be in trouble. Bus, every 1 hour! Bicycles, no single lanes! This is a suburb, without a reservation, taxis can't be called. ”
Jenny immediately suggested: "Isn't your work over? I think it's better to get a driver's license while you're free, and I'll be your coach." ”
After learning the traffic laws, I went to the DMV, paid $30, and took the written test directly. passed the exam easily, but Sunflower was a little regretful: "I heard that the California exam is the most difficult in the United States. I didn't expect it to be so easy to prepare for so long!"
Lin Yi laughed when he heard it, and praised his girlfriend for being smart!
There is no driving school in the United States, so after the road practice permit is in hand, the girl can go on the road to practice. However, the co-pilot's position must be accompanied by Jenny.
After practicing the car, Xiang Sunhua hugged her boyfriend and took the initiative to offer a fragrant kiss: "Thanks to your foresight, you didn't let me learn to drive in Hong Kong." Otherwise, it will be difficult to correct it if you practice now!"
The girl is full of confidence, and she clears the road test once. When he got his driver's license, Lin Yi felt that "it's a vast and sparsely populated land, and the driver's license is really cheap, only a hundred dollars in total!"
Jenny smiled and continued, "It's also cheap to buy a car!"
Lin Yi is a pragmatist, whether shopping or driving, a Ford pickup truck is enough.
However, Jenny is opposed to high-displacement cars: ""Silent Spring, I recommend you to watch it." The earth's environment is already in jeopardy, and we should all do our part!"
car, Lin Yi was reluctant to give up, so he diverted the topic: "You and Fei Lan, but they are really similar, they are both environmentalists." ”
Jenny's face immediately showed nostalgia: "When we went to school, we were not in the same school. Got acquainted because of environmental protection, and came together because of environmental protection. ”
Xiang Yanghua suddenly said: "It seems that environmental protection has become a matchmaker! Even if the family is opposed, your relationship is still as solid as a rock, and the reason is that you are like-minded!"
Seeing that the other party's expression was gloomy, the girl stuck out her tongue and quickly called her boyfriend to make up for it.
"In the relationship in the family, the economy is the dominant factor. When you get it, it's all right!"
With this episode, the eco-friendly car recommended by Jenny was accepted by the two. Sunflower also promised: "Don't worry, although we bought a pickup, it is not necessary, we will not drive it out." ”
The second factory in Delaware has been officially put into operation. With the hiring of a production manager, Phelan didn't have to spend time there and could go back to the West Coast headquarters.
"When did you come? Why don't you make a call?"
"Just a few days, I just wanted to surprise you. ”
After Phelan and Jenny met, they first hugged warmly, and then exchanged heartfelt complaints. After eating, they hugged each other and entered the bedroom, not avoiding others at all.
You don't have to guess at all, you know that inside, it must be dry firewood.
Sunflower is like a jade, and Lin Yi has not yet taken it. So when I encounter dog food, I want to kill people with my eyes. Although the TV was on, his mind drifted somewhere!
When she got up the next morning, seeing Lin Yi's dark circles under her eyes, Jenny generously proposed: "Fei Lan and I plan to move out." ”
The other party is so caring. Of course, Lin Yi warmly bid farewell!
The CEO returned to the company, and Lin Yi was liberated. After a short vacation, he began to make good on his promise.
Many universities in the United States do not even have a school gate. It's very easy to get in and listen to the lectures. In order to test this statement, Lin Yi sneaked in.
It's a pity that I was unlucky, and I ran into a stern professor, one by one, and took turns to sign in. When Lin Yi was kicked out, he heard other students complaining: "I just said that it is easy to skip general education classes, but it is difficult to skip professional courses." If you don't listen, you have to pull me here!"
Lin Yi consulted Phelan and re-entered Stanford to the Career Development Center. Showing the company's information, he made a promise to the school: "The job fair of Paradise Games will be held in your school. In addition, we offer internship opportunities. ”
In this way, the attendance card is easy to obtain. When he got home, he told his girlfriend, "I just made good on my promise! Tomorrow, let's go to class together." ”
Xiang Sunhua refused: "I don't want to listen anymore." I want to get a formal education, go through a full business training, and then I won't hold you back after graduation! I inquired that after completing the preparatory department at a community college, I can go to college!"
With his girlfriend's support, Lin Yi will only be happy, where will he object?
At this moment, the girl suggested, "Why don't you come with me?" I've heard people say that a college diploma is a network. It will also be very beneficial for doing business in the future!"
With so many gold mines, opportunities are fleeting! It takes four or five years to exchange for a diploma, and Lin Yi's time is not so extravagant. Although he couldn't say it explicitly, he still comforted his girlfriend: "Academic qualifications are not important to me, but I will definitely go to school! There are so many resources nearby, if you don't make good use of it, it's a pity." ”
After arranging his girlfriend, he returned to college. First of all, I chose economics, after all, it is closely related to money.
Samuelson, the tenth edition of "Economics" is more than 1,000 pages, thicker than a brick! If there is no teacher's explanation, if you are alone and eat a book, you may see the Year of the Monkey!
After listening to the first section, Lin Yi figured out why the job fair could be exchanged for a lecture certificate.
World War II to 1969 was the golden age of the United States, and the unemployment rate was only 2-3%. After the oil crisis, the figure exceeded 9%. The government wants votes, and schools want prestige, so they all take this issue seriously. However, Lin Yi benefited a lot from tax cuts, low wages, audit qualifications, and unemployment!
