In the deep alleys, the exquisite courtyards, the dark house doors, the shiny door cymbals, and the swing swaying under the old locust tree.

The summer clouds are floating, Li Jiaming stands in the exquisite courtyard, with his hands behind his back, looking up at the pigeon starting the plate, flying to the east, seeing the east, flying to the south, seeing the south...... A flock of pigeons flew around the quadrangle.

"Brother!"

A scream woke up Li Jiaming, who was immersed in a certain emotion, and then was bumped from behind by the excited Wanwan.

"Brother, come on".

"Oh", Li Jiaming picked up the dancing Wanwan and put it on his back, and entered the wing room that was being cleaned up, but the little sister closed the door slightly.

"Brother, do you remember that you promised to give your second uncle and aunt a pension?"

The children of poor families have long been in charge, and the little sister who has lived independently for four years has also grown up and knows the sophistication of people. Li Jiaming, who was pleased, patted the little sister's head and said with a smile: "I don't want you to remind me, the eldest sister's yard is for me to get married, and it will be given to my sister in the future." Next to this courtyard, I used to give it to Wanwan, and when the third sister wanted to settle in the capital, I would give it to her. ”

"That?"

"Wanwan said, when you grow up, go and help me make money, right?"

"Well, when I grow up, I'll help my brother make money and buy a lot of Winnie the Pooh!"

But the little sister still whispered: "Brother, I don't want it, why don't you give it to Sister Jin?"

The little sister's empathetic temperament should have been inherited from her mother, Li Jiaming suddenly felt a kind of sentimentality, but said with a smile: "Mo Duo thinks, no matter how close Jin Mei is with me, the dowry must be led by the military brother;

"What? Is this a dowry?"

Li Jiaming looked at the blushing little sister with a smile, and quipped: "What do you think? The brother will buy the dowry and the sister will add the dowry, not to buy the dowry for you, I will buy these two courtyard houses seven years ago?"

The embarrassed little sister kicked her brother's calf, and Li Jiaming laughed, far happier than when the foundation of the institute was laid. This is her little sister, cheerful and kind, without a trace of inferiority complex and timidity in her previous life.

"Let's go, I'm going to buy you a car, I promised before, when you are admitted to college, I will send you a house and a car. ”

"Don't!"

Don't you want a car for your own sister and a full sister, and she still calls a car at the age of seventeen or eighteen, will she want a car?

"When I was a child, I thought it was amazing to have a car at home, but now I don't feel that way anymore. Oh, the car is what Sister Man likes to call, so she forced me to call it that. I'm a reading girl, what do you say about driving a car every day?"

Oh, it used to be a little girl's vanity, but then it was used to screaming, don't want it. Xiaomei is not the third sister, and she can't do the kind of thing that smashes people's faces with flowers, and she probably doesn't want to be too unsociable in school.

After the brother and sister whispered, they called Jin Mei, who was cleaning in the hall, to go to the eldest sister's house next door for dinner. This little cousin has been timid and a little sensitive since she was a child, Li Jiaming took her shoulders and fell to the end, explaining to her the rules of her hometown.

Being held by her cousin, who is closer than her brother, Jin Mei, who has changed her name to Li Xin, feels very happy, as if when she went back to Fameng, her cousin gave her eggs that are usually difficult to eat.

"Fifth brother, I know, I'm not angry. Really, from childhood to adulthood, what Wenwen and Manmei have, I have. This is the dowry you prepared for Wenwen, if you want to give it to me too, my brother will feel uncomfortable if he doesn't talk about it. ”

Hehe, the military brother is good, but he is a little stingy. He has been with his eldest brother and second brother for more than ten years, and he doesn't even give a glass of wine during the New Year, but the eldest brother and second brother toast him every year.

When I arrived at the eldest sister's house, I called out the full sister who was still eating books in the study, and everyone sat down to eat together. Just picked up the bowl, Wen Li, who often comes to rub a meal, came uninvited, this guy has been admitted to Peking University for two years, and he has been named Sun Shan twice, and he is preparing to take the exam for the third time.

When he came back for the New Year last year, Li Jiaming couldn't stand it and wanted to help him get through, but he refused. In his words, Peking University was his childhood dream, and if he failed the exam, he could not desecrate it.

"Jiaming, when will you go back to the United States?"

"In a week, I have to go back to my hometown. ”

After gobbling it up, Wen Li handed over a list, "Oh, help me find some information." ”

Li Jiaming, who was drinking soup, glanced at the book list, which was full of basic research materials, and said strangely: "Great plague, you are not allowed to prepare for the exam?"

"Take the test, of course you have to take the test, the last time, if you can't pass the test, you will leave. If I don't have my life, what else can I force it? You don't really think that I'm going to hang myself from a tree with a crooked neck?"

It's a little interesting, Li Jiaming helped Wanwan pick the fish bones, and joked: "Great plague, should you want to save the country?"

When he was full, Wen Li became a plague, and cowhides flew all over the sky.

"Of course, who is our Wen Li, and which one can Comrade Xiao Wen compare? Let me tell you, I can't get into Peking University, can I go to Peking University to become a professor? I kind of have figured it out, don't look at Peking University as bad, but there are too many people in the exam......."

Reasonable!

Li Jiaming's eyes lit up, and he gave a thumbs up to the gushing 'Great Plague', and Wen Li, who was blowing happily, saw this, and hesitated: "Jiaming, what do you mean? Where am I wrong?"

What's wrong with this? It's a great favor for Lao Tzu!

Li Jiaming, who used to wait for the little sister to eat fish, and now waits for Wanwan to eat fish, put down the chopsticks that picked the thorns and handed over the job to the little sister.

"This is a very serious matter, why am I making fun of you? The population of the United States is only 1/4 of ours, but there are many world-class schools and extremely rich educational resources. In this way, our Tsinghua University and Peking University are second-rate schools in the United States, but they are even more difficult to get into than the Indian Institute of Technology. ”

India?

My brother is a genius, and the man sister, who was listening attentively, immediately said: "Brother, there are good universities in India?"

"Of course, the Indian Institute of Technology is known as the world's most demanding cradle for engineering training, on par. Their population is about the same as ours, and the Indian Institute of Technology is the only one in their country, so how difficult do you say it is to get in? However, their basic education is too weak, and the level of competition is actually not as fierce as that of our Tsinghua University and Peking University.

If you really want to talk about it, our Tsinghua University and Peking University are the most difficult universities in the world. Especially for our generation, the acceptance rate is 60% for junior high school, 30% for junior high school, and 30% for college entrance examination. After screening layer by layer, those who can take a college exam in our country can take the famous brand exam in the United States.

Wen Li, you made the right choice. As long as you can pass the interview, it may not be easy to apply for a scholarship, but it should not be a big problem to get in. When they get their doctorate and want to be a teacher at Peking University, it is estimated that their dean will greet them. ”

The full sister who was worried about not passing the exam exclaimed, and hurriedly grabbed her brother's T-shirt and asked, "Brother, how is this possible?"

His eyes glanced at Liu Shasha, who was also listening, and Li Jiaming, who also didn't want his childhood friend to be unwilling, said with a smile: "Hehe, what's impossible about this? How many of you who can get a doctorate are willing to return to China? Even if you return to China, you will start a business like Zhaoyang, or go to a foreign company to be an executive, who wants to teach in a university?"

When Zhao Yang first returned to China, their school wanted him to be a part-time teaching assistant, and they also offered an annual salary of 30,000 US dollars and a scientific research fund of 40,000 yuan a year. If they weren't too stingy and didn't agree to give the professor's position directly, maybe Lao Zhang would really be a professor. ”

"No, I mean it's so easy to apply to universities in the United States?"

How can you say this? Everyone has dreams, and Man Mei has boasted since she was a child that she will definitely be admitted to Peking University, and after more than ten years, it has become a deep-rooted dream. But her talent is average, and it is too difficult to get into the cruelly competitive Peking University, and it is a very popular computer major. If you go abroad to study like Wen Li, and then go to Peking University to become a teacher, maybe it is more realistic.

Li Jiaming pondered for a moment and explained: "It's not easy, but it also depends on the situation. Unlike in China, universities in the U.S. focus on merit when admitting graduate students, and at the same time focus on students' abilities beyond study, such as the ability to solve practical problems.

For example, Shui Tsai, his grades are average, and his grades are average when he takes a year off, but because of his excellent resume, the University of San Francisco was admitted on a full scholarship. If that kid is like Li Jiaming and works on a few more good papers, Harvard or Stanford might admit him. ”

Liu Shasha, who knew Li Jiaming too well, waited for his voice to fall, and immediately said with disdain: "You just make it up." ”

It was indeed made up, but Wanwan, who had just finished eating, immediately raised her hand and said triumphantly: "Sister Sasha, this is true, when my brother went to the interview, I also went to play." The interviewer told my brother that he could go directly to Stanford Graduate School of Business as a professor!"

Chaos!

Li Jiaming lovingly knocked Wanwan's head melon seeds, turned his head and said, "Sasha, don't listen to her nonsense, it's just a joke." But don't think it's hard to apply to a university in the U.S., it's just that you don't have the skills.

Knowing that during the interview, the interviewer asked him why he wanted to study in the United States, how did he answer?

The guy said that he wanted to see what kind of strange country a country where a fool like Forrest Gump could succeed. Then, he processed and interpreted the comments of American film critics on "Forrest Gump", and coaxed the interviewer to the point where he couldn't find the north. ”

"You guys are opportunistic!"

Li Jiaming, who is already a foreigner, shrugged his shoulders and admitted: "We are businessmen, and how to communicate with people are the basic communication skills taught in the business school. Then again, if you want to do this, you need to be confident enough to have a good laugh with the interviewer.

Having self-confidence does not necessarily lead to success, but without self-confidence you are bound to fail. The interviewer is not stupid, and many of those strange questions are actually testing everyone's ability beyond their professional achievements, and self-confidence and recognition of American culture are the two most important links.

I bet you've said something the interviewer likes to hear, but so what? No one is a saint, so you have to be a little more roundful when it matters most. ”

Liu Shasha, who has been sharp and sharp since she was a child, was choked, and then she remembered that her old classmate had always advertised that she would rather be a 'real villain' than a 'hypocrite'.
