Chapter 3 Admission II
"Does this color mean something?" Such doubts began to appear in Zhang Chengyuan's heart.
When Director Lu handed over the last bracelet to the last classmate, he looked at the bracelet that was still left in his hand and said, "Wei Hengyi? ”
No one responded.
Director Lu's face was full of surprise, he didn't believe that there would be classmates absent. It's like we don't believe that students who are admitted to Tsinghua University will not go to school.
But Wei Hengyi really didn't come.
"This guy has what an idea! It seems that there are too many places in your enlightenment middle school! Easy to do! Next year, the quota will be reduced a little bit for you. Director Lu continued, "Now let's look at the color of the badge on your bracelet. Students with green badges stand in line on my left, and students with blue badges stand in line on my right. ”
Zhang Chengyuan stood on the right hand side of Captain Lu Tianshu, his heart sinking. Because he saw Ruan Xiyue standing on the left-hand side, and then Leng Changhe also stood on the left-hand side, as well as Zhu Tiancong, Guo Siqing, Wu Hao, Zheng Changlong, Jiang Wenyu, and Sun Pengcheng. The partners of the Excellence Alliance, except for Zhang Chengyuan, are all on the other side. Among the eight people in his team, the only one he knows is Chen Jiatong.
"Now standing on my left, the students with the green logo on the bracelet, you are in the same class; The classmates on my right, you are in the second class. ”
Zhang Chengyuan was in a very low mood, and the partners in the first class also looked at Zhang Chengyuan here, and they all threw away sympathetic eyes. Zhang Chengyuan couldn't figure it out, why was he assigned to the second class?
"Do you see the school building behind me?" Lu Tianshu pointed behind him, "The students of the first class turned left when they entered the building, and the students of the second class turned right when they entered the building and reported to their own class." ”
With the flow of people, Zhang Chengyuan walked to his class, but he still didn't understand why. Chen Jiatong patted him on the shoulder to express comfort, but Zhang Chengyuan didn't hear what she said at all.
"Chen Jiatong doesn't have any friends in the first place, so it doesn't matter if she is assigned to the second class." Zhang Chengyuan thought to himself, "But I'm different, all the people who are assigned to the first class are my friends, why am I the only one who was separated?" ”
In a trance, he had already walked to the door of the second class classroom with the flow of people. A middle-aged man in his forties, slightly chubby, and a kind face stood in front of the door, smiling and saying to his classmates, "Young people, welcome!" Enter the classroom and take your seat according to your student number! ”
Only then did Zhang Chengyuan remember to lift the bracelet and glanced at his student number 204602005. Zhang Chengyuan turned around and asked Chen Jiatong: "How many are you?" ”
"204602021," Chen Jiatong whispered. Judging from the student number, the two only partners can't sit together.
There are a total of thirty seats in the classroom, with a total of five rows and six columns. Zhang Chengyuan's student number 5 sits in the fifth column of the first row, while Chen Jiatong's student number 21 sits in the fourth row, the third column.
Sitting down in his position, Zhang Chengyuan said to himself: "Face the reality! When you arrive in a new environment, you can only adapt to the environment! ”
Zhang Chengyuan turned his head to look at the classmate on his right, the seats were arranged according to the student number, and sitting on his right was a boy with short hair and small eyes, who looked like nothing but full of energy. He also turned his head to look at Zhang Chengyuan, showing a friendly smile.
"Sun Wanyang." The man held out his hand in a friendly manner.
"Zhang Chengyuan." Cheng Yuan shook hands with Sun Wanyang.
The two looked at each other for a while, this was the first person Zhang Chengyuan met in the new environment. Zhang Chengyuan believes in fate. Love needs fate, and so does friendship. The brief eye contact made Zhang Chengyuan feel that they would become friends.
For half an hour, children from more than a dozen different middle schools entered the classrooms and took their seats in their respective seats.
The middle-aged man who had just stood at the door to welcome his classmates into the classroom strolled to the podium and looked at the 29 students in the classroom with a bright smile on his face.
The classmates quieted down and waited for him to speak.
"Young people! I'm your homeroom teacher. The middle-aged man smiled kindly, but his voice was a little hoarse.
The middle-aged man picked up a piece of chalk and wrote three types on the top of the blackboard - "Li Zhidong". The three words are vigorous and powerful, but they are like grass snakes dancing wildly, unruly.
"My name is Li Zhidong." Although the head teacher's voice was hoarse, his tone was very bold. "Call me whatever you want. If you think I'm old, you can call me Lao Li! If you are polite, you can call me Mr. Li, if you feel that you have the right temper, and you can be a New Year's friend with me, you can call me Brother Dong! Brave classmates can call me a big name, Li Zhidong! ”
The teacher's opening remarks were humorous, and the atmosphere in the classroom was less tense. But no students spoke. When the teacher spoke, the classmates were silenced. This kind of rule is a habit that children develop from an early age.
"The students are very shy!" Seeing that there were no classmates to speak, Mr. Li continued, "Sailing School, three years of student time, the first two years will be spent with you. Just twenty or thirty people, looking up and not looking down every day, we will be very familiar sooner or later. According to the normal routine, when the new students are enrolled, I should keep a straight face, pretend to be deep, give my classmates a disgrace, and let you all listen to me, and the students will be honest and obedient. But no, I'm used to it, and I won't pretend to be deep, so the messy set is free! Let's talk about three chapters: First, when there are no outsiders, you can do whatever you like, and this classroom is the same as your home, and there are no rules. What you do to your brothers and sisters, you can do to your classmates around you, and what you do to your uncle and second uncle, just do to me; second, when there are outsiders, everyone should be able to pretend, as they are now, as if they are very qualified; Third, I am older than you, you have to give me face, and when I speak, you have to listen, at least pretend to listen. Do you understand? ”
Wow...... The students under the podium opened their mouths and answered everything. The expressions of the classmates were very excited, and even Zhang Chengyuan, who was depressed just now, smiled at this time. Being able to have such a head teacher really gives them a lot of knowledge.
"I know that you are all the so-called best in the various secondary schools." Mr. Li continued, "Unfortunately, I don't think so. ”
The students were shocked, they are the best in the eyes of everyone, and now they have been admitted to the Sailing School, this sense of accomplishment is like stepping on the mountain of white bones of the loser, towards the peak of life, they have been recognized all the way, but their current homeroom teacher does not think so.
"Teacher, you mean to say that everyone is about the same level of excellence, and now they are standing at the same starting point, so no one will be recognized by you until we work hard, right?" A classmate asked.
"It's not! Not at all. Teacher Li shook his head firmly, and then said, "People are born unequal, what I want to do is to treat people with differences without discrimination." How high your IQ is, it was brought out of the mother's womb, and your physical fitness, to a certain extent, is also brought out from the mother's womb. For example, if you are a child of a teacher, your cultural class score will naturally be higher, is this all fair? But what if your dad was a fitter in a factory? I believe that your ability to do handicrafts will be better than that of other students. But who the fuck said that the ability to take a culture class is more important than the ability to do a craft? Who the dictates this? These are beyond your control, so you are forced to filter them according to the rules of the game. It's just a way to play according to the rules of this game, and you are the best among them. In my eyes, every single one of you, and indeed every student from other schools, is indistinguishable. ”
"Can a teacher still swear?" Zhang Chengyuan was angry and funny in his heart, it is said that in this semi-militarized management school, the system should be so strict, but his own head teacher does not want to be like this.
Zhang Chengyuan turned his head to look at Sun Wanyang next to him, he was smiling and nodding, as if he was very recognized.
"Now the goal of each of you is to get out of the city and live in the "Pure Land". It seems to me that you are all my students. It is destined that some of you will go to the Pure Land, and the rest will not. Each of you has the same place in my heart, so it doesn't matter to me who goes and who doesn't. What I want to say is that it is not necessarily a good thing to go out of the city, and it is not necessarily bad to stay in the city. The world is changing, and so is the way you see the world. Don't always climb blindly and be careful to climb higher and fall harder, and pay attention to the scenery on the mountainside. What is the meaning of your life if you blindly climb without looking at the scenery? If you enter the school to get out of the city after graduating in three years, what is the meaning of these three years of life to you? You've subjectively ignored them.
Having said so much, the conclusion is that cherish your life every day, live every day with sunshine and happiness, this is the teacher's greatest hope for you, everything else is nonsense! ”
The students do have the dream of getting out of the city, which is why everyone is now gathered in one classroom. Therefore, the students could not absorb Mr. Li's words well, but the students still gave warm applause to the teacher's majestic speech.
"I'll stop here first, and I'll take you to the dormitory in a moment. Go out of the school building and walk north, through the playground, and you will find the dormitory. According to the student number, there is a dormitory for every two people. The east side of the dormitory is the cafeteria, it is now eleven o'clock in the morning, everyone goes to the dormitory to check in, then go to the cafeteria to eat, and gather in the conference room on the third floor of the teaching building at half past one in the afternoon, and the principal comes to hold a meeting for everyone. Did you hear it all? ”
"Clear!" The students responded.
"Withdraw!" Teacher Li made a gesture and led the students out of the classroom.
On the way from the school building to the dormitory, the students were talking to their new friends.
"Zhang Chengyuan?" Sun Wanyang accurately called out the name of the partner he had just met, "Where are you in junior high school?" ”
"I'm from Enlightenment Middle School." Zhang Chengyuan replied that studying in Enlightenment Middle School was something he should be proud of.
"What a school!" Sun Wanyang nodded affirmatively, "I'm from Rongzhi Middle School." ”
"Oh!" Zhang Chengyuan nodded politely, in his opinion, only his own enlightenment middle school is outstanding, and there is no difference between other schools.
"So your parents are both college professors?" Sun Wanyang continued to ask.
"Hmm." Zhang Chengyuan nodded, "What about you?" What did your parents do? ”
"Researcher at the Hung Yen Pharmaceutical Factory." Sun Wanyang replied, with a proud face.
Zhang Chengyuan's eyes lit up, and the Xing'an Pharmaceutical Factory is also an important enterprise under the supervision of the Lanqicheng Military Region, and 70 percent of the drugs needed in the Rongqicheng are produced by the Xing'an Pharmaceutical Factory. Thinking of this, Zhang Chengyuan suddenly remembered the story Wei Hengyi told that night and the cruel truth.
"Then, do you know that the trace element tablets we eat on weekdays are produced by Xing'an Pharmaceutical Factory?" Zhang Chengyuan asked involuntarily.
Sun Wanyang frowned and thought about it: "I don't know about this, my parents haven't mentioned this." ”
Zhang Chengyuan and the other partners in the three groups all knew the truth about the trace element tablets they took every day, and they also increased their attention to taking medicine when they didn't pay attention to it before. He instinctively wanted to tell Sun Wanyang the truth, but after all, new friends had just met, and trust needed to be cultivated and established slowly, so he couldn't help but say nothing.
The first and second floors of the dormitory building are occupied by male students, and the third and fourth floors are occupied by female students. A wall divides the dormitory building in half, with Class 1 living on the west side and Class 2 students living on the east side. Each dormitory houses two students, each with their own separate bedroom but sharing a living room.
The dormitory environment was better than Zhang Chengyuan imagined, but the separation wall seemed to be blocked in his heart. Although he and the rest of his college classmates are in the same class, they can still see each other every day if they are next to each other in the dormitory. Now seeing such a dormitory pattern, I am very depressed in my heart. Leng Changhe, Wu Hao, and Zheng Changlong are now separated from him by a wall, and the farthest is the distance between him and Ruan Xiyue. Thinking about it, most of the partners were promoted, but now, only Chen Jiatong is left in the same class as him.
Zhang Chengyuan's dormitory is in room 105, and he and Sun Wanyang are roommates.
The two simply settled into a new home and went to the cafeteria to eat.
The environment and style of the canteen are also very elegant, which surprised Zhang Chengyuan.
Such an environment cannot be seen in any hotel in the city. The tables are all red pine, the floor is marble, and the chandelier on the dome Zhang Chengyuan has only been seen in film and television works. The lobby on the first floor of the cafeteria is the activity room, and the upper floor is the dining area. The doors are all automatic glass doors, the canteen plays elegant, soft music, and the central air conditioning provides a comfortable temperature in the room. Just three floors of the building, all installed with 4 elevators. The only fly in the ointment is that among the 4 elevators, the electronic screens of two elevators are displayed to be suspended due to failure.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the variety of dishes was even more dazzling, and many seafood with shells made the students jaw-dropping. There is no seafood in the city, and they have never touched these delicacies for more than ten years.
Such dormitory conditions and such a canteen style undoubtedly make the students proud that they were admitted to the school, and undoubtedly strengthen the students' dream of going out of the city and living in the "Pure Land".
But what Zhang Chengyuan felt was a further sense of loss. He sadly discovered that the first and second classes were separated even the cafeteria, the first class was on the second floor and the second class was on the third floor. He even worries that the next time he sees other Excellence Alliance mates will be in the distant future.
