Chapter Forty-Eight: Senior Brother
After routinely asking about the basic situation of the two people, Wang Ling didn't say much, and directly threw out a topic that surprised both of them, "Since you are my graduate students, then you have joined my research group since the beginning of your research, of course, you can only do some small things at the beginning, such as consulting materials, sorting out numbers, and translating literature, but I hope that you can start to do some substantive work in the second year of research." I sorted out these books, you go back and read them carefully, and you will give me your reading experience at the regular meeting of the research group two weeks later. β
Two weeks! Looking at the tomes on the desktop, Ji Qingling's heart tightened, not only to finish reading the difficult professional books, but also to hand in her experience, even if she was ready to work hard, she didn't expect Wang Ling's request to be so perverted.
"I looked at your graduate school entrance examination results, and my English is not bad, I have a few documents to send to you, you go back and translate them, and they will be handed over to me in two weeks." Wang Ling once again dropped a heavy bomb on Ji Qingling's heart, which made her very messy.
"Which of you knows German?"
"I'm just going to do it a little bit." Fang Zhongnan touched his nose and smiled.
"I have a joint project with Germany, and you will help translate some materials when the time comes."
"I'm probably only good at everyday conversations, and it's a bit difficult to translate." Fang Zhongnan smiled dryly.
"You just happen to be free in your first year of study, so you can use this year to strengthen your German skills," Wang Ling also smiled, "Xiao Ji, what foreign languages do you know?" β
Ji Qingling was stunned, so he had to answer stubbornly, "I can only speak English." β
Wang Ling didn't embarrass her, most graduate students can learn English well, Fang Zhongnan has a German foundation is already an unexpected joy, "It's good for you to learn a few more foreign languages, you are still young, put more effort into your studies." β
Learn more than one foreign language? It has been very difficult for her to learn English, if it weren't for the blessing of Shen Fuyan in the training class, her results in postgraduate English would not be so good......
Ji Qingling wants to cry without tears, it seems that Niu Jiajia is right, Wang Ling's requirements for students are really perverted, and his gentle and amiable image is really completely inconsistent!
"I will try my best to guide you, but I travel a lot and have limited time, so if you have any questions, you can ask your senior brother Shen Fuyan." He picked up the phone and dialed a few numbers, "Xiao Shen, come to my office." β
Ji Qingling was stunned, she almost forgot that Shen Fuyan was also studying in graduate school, an excellent person like him must be Wang Ling's protΓ©gΓ©, no wonder Wang Ling didn't find a doctor to take them, but called Shen Fuyan, who was only one year higher than them.
Shen Fuyan's office was not far from Wang Ling, he was still wearing a white shirt, gentle with a melancholy atmosphere, he was not surprised to see Ji Qingling, he just smiled and bowed, "Little junior sister, congratulations on being admitted to Mr. Wang's graduate school." β
Little junior sister? Fang Zhongnan's eyes widened, could this be Ling Hu Chong in front of him? Isn't that Fu Zijun Lin Pingzhi? He opened his mind and connected the cold Fu Zijun with the evil sword technique, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
However, no one noticed his careful thoughts, Wang Ling smiled, "You knew each other before?" β
"Senior Brother Shen is my senior brother in high school and college." Ji Qingling said with a smile.
"That's great, Xiao Shen is a counselor for undergraduates, and he is very familiar with the situation of the school." Wang Ling said happily, "You take them to familiarize themselves with the situation, take them to handle all the procedures that should be done, and you two can consult Xiao Shen if you have any questions about your studies, his foundation is very solid." β
"What to do? In just two weeks, I have to read books, write notes, and translate, and I don't have time at all! Ji Qingling walked out of Wang Ling's office with a sad face holding the book, not to mention that they still have public classes to attend in the past two weeks, "Senior Brother Shen, have Teacher Wang's requirements always been so high?" β
Shen Fuyan nodded, "Everyone came over like this, and they slowly got used to it." β
If Ji Qingling was shocked, at that moment, he really felt that Niu Jiajia's advice was not wrong.
"You haven't read these books?" Fang Zhongnan looked at Ji Qingling in surprise, "These are all introductory classic books on economics, didn't you read them when you were in college?" β
"You've read it all?" Ji Qingling's eyes widened and he asked.
"Please, Marx's "Capital", Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations", and Keynes's "General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money" are the three great works of economics, how can you not read them if you study economics?"
Ji Qingling only felt embarrassed, her grades in college were not bad, but she was usually busy with part-time work, so she went on a trip with Niu Jiajia in her spare time, and she only knew how to cling to books in her spare time, and the teacher recommended them to read these books, but she didn't take the exam, so she naturally didn't bother to read them, it is estimated that Wang Ling also thought that she and Fang Zhongnan had read these books, so they would only give them two weeks to write reading notes, no wonder Fang Zhongnan looked calm just now, and her sitting like pins and needles must have left a bad impression on Wang Ling.
Looking at her dejected appearance, Shen Fuyan's eyes were filled with pity, "It's okay, you read it roughly, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask me, it's really not finished, I'll go talk to Teacher Wang, take your time, don't worry." β
His voice was as slow and gentle as ever, strangely soothing her impatient heart.
Fang Zhongnan grinned and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter, there are more reading notes on the Internet, you can search for a few articles on the Internet and piece them together, don't be sad, it's the first day of school, we are so fateful, we are brothers and sisters in the same school, I invite you to eat delicious food." β
"Classmate, who is the same brother and sister as you?" Ji Qingling was amused by him, "Are we classmates?" Senior Brother Shen is my senior brother, you are younger than me, why should I be my senior sister, you should be my junior brother. β
"Don't you girls like to talk about being younger? How do you like being a sister? Fang Zhongnan muttered, "Then I'll call you Qingling, you look so tender, I can't say that sister." β
"Where am I tender?" Ji Qingling said coquettishly, as a woman in her thirties with a psychological age, it is still very useful for her to be praised by young men.
Shen Fuyan smiled and looked at the two laughing, and sighed in her heart, the little junior sister has really changed a lot, she was shy and introverted in the past, and even laughing was timid, how could she have been so cheerful and laughing.
Now she is happy, looking at her smile, he feels that the original gloomy and depressing world has become clearer.
He is willing to silently guard her happiness forever, and for him, this is the best ending.
