005 Letter from Kassel Academy
Half an hour later, Lu Mingfei bought a teaching assistant and set foot on the way home.
"By the way, I have to go to the communication room to see if there is any letter from a foreign university." Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered something.
The matter of going abroad was advocated by my aunt on a whim. With Lu Mingfei's previous results, he didn't expect to take a test at all, but fortunately, he took the TOEFL test and got a good score by accident.
The aunt pondered that if Lu Mingfei could apply for a foreign university, study a returnee and then return to China, it would also be very valuable, at least worthy of the living expenses sent by Lu Mingfei's parents on a regular basis.
Even if you can't pass the exam, you can take the college entrance examination again next year.
And this has the advantage of allowing Lu Mingfei to help his cousin wade through the water and try the road.
If he fails, it doesn't matter, it means that this road is different, and using him as a lesson from the past can make Lu Mingze delay for a year.
"Uncle, do you have my letter?" Lu Mingfei asked in the communication room.
Now there is only one university left that has not written to him, and the University of Chicago, which is at the top of the rankings.
"Yes, from the United States." The doorman threw in a letter, "There is still a package to sign for." β
Lu Mingfei looked confused, took the package, and poured it out of it...... An N96 phone.
Influenced by his uncle, Lu Mingfei still has some understanding of luxury. N96 has more than 4,000 parallel goods and more than 5,000 licensed goods, which is a very luxurious mobile phone in these years.
Although he knew about this mobile phone, he would be "laughed at" by his uncle afterwards.
But Lu Mingfei still couldn't help but play with it in his hands.
He opened his phone and found the only contact in his business card holder, Professor Guderian.
"This ...... Are all elite schools in the United States so rich? Just replying to the application letter and sending a mobile phone? And also leave the contact information of the professor? Lu Mingfei felt that something was not quite right.
Back at home, Lu Mingfei took a deep breath and opened the envelope.
This is his last chance if the University of Chicago also rejects his application......
Lu Mingfei didn't continue to think about it, and he began to read the letter.
The letter begins with the same words, "Thank you for your interest in XX University, but unfortunately, you were not accepted." β
However, to Lu Mingfei's surprise, the letter did not end here, because a turning sentence soon followed: "However, we often say that there is more than one road......"
From here on, the general content is: Although the University of Chicago did not admit him, a well-known university called Kassel College, the University of Chicago's Friendship College, took the initiative to send Lu Mingfei an interview invitation.
βWhatοΌβ Lu Mingfei was a little dumbfounded, he didn't even contribute the application fee to this school.
Could it be that his potential has been discovered by the other school?
But no, the application letter was sent abroad a long time ago, and I scored 110 points in the math test only a few days ago.
"This Kassel Academy ......" Lu Mingfei looked at the name of the school on the envelope, thinking about it, and always felt as if he had heard this name somewhere, and it was very familiar.
Huh? That's right! When I met Senior Brother Chu Zihang on the subway just now, didn't the other party claim to be studying at Kassel Academy? I also recommend applying for it yourself!
Holy, such a coincidence?!
Lu Mingfei was stunned, and felt more and more that life was full of coincidences.
He originally wondered if this Kassel Academy was some pheasant university in the United States, so it sent an interview invitation in order to earn high tuition fees from himself.
But since Senior Brother Chu Zihang is studying in this school, then Kassel Academy will definitely not be bad!
Lu Mingfei was highly motivated, and felt that life was full of hope.
β¦β¦
"It must have been a liar! And it's an acquaintance in the community! Only acquaintances know about our family! β
A few days later, when the uncle and aunt came back after the May Day holiday, they were shocked at first when they learned that Lu Mingfei had received an interview invitation from the Kassel Academy, and then they immediately questioned it.
"But what scammer would spend such a big amount of money! N96 eh! The uncle unceremoniously pocketed Lu Ming's hard-won N96 mobile phone, rubbed it repeatedly, leaving fingerprints, like an old woman cherishing an ancestral bracelet.
While they were arguing endlessly in the living room, Lu Mingfei had quietly returned to the room.
Since loading the Nightmare Simulator, Lu Mingfei has become a volume king struggler, for whom time is a precious thing, and it is a waste to listen to the quarrels of his uncles and aunts.
So he opened QQ and asked for help from the only American he knew, a Chinese-American nicknamed Old Don, who met Lu Mingfei when he was playing StarCraft.
In terms of game technology, Lu Mingfei is actually a step ahead, but he is a little wilted, he has been hiding his true level, and only uses the red dot to fight against Lao Tang - if he gets serious and fires at full power, I'm afraid Lao Tang won't last three minutes, right? Then there will be no one to play with.
Fortunately, Lao Tang is a very righteous person, claiming to be the first in the channel, and he is very enthusiastic about Lu Mingfei, the second place, and after knowing that Lu Mingfei got an offer from an American university, he took the initiative to help him practice his interview skills.
"Lu Mingfei, remember to take notes! The opening question in the interview is, why did you apply this ......college," Tang said, clearing his throat.
Lu Mingfei carefully recorded the main points that Old Tang said.
That serious effort made Lao Tang look at it, and unexpectedly expressed his admiration: "I always thought that you were a waste, brother, but I didn't expect you to be such a hard-working person in reality." Come on! You'll be able to go ashore, brother, I'm optimistic about you! β
"Just try to have no regrets." Lu Mingfei said.
Time passed little by little, and the three poles of the sun became the moon hanging in the middle of the sky.
Old Tang soon couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted the video to sleep.
And Lu Mingfei still endured the sleepiness, listening to the recording while wearing headphones while repeatedly honing his spoken language.
On the bed, cousin Lu Mingze rolled his eyes, he didn't believe that with his cousin's strength, he could get an offer from an American university.
But the reality is that it is. Lu Mingze was very jealous of Lu Mingfei's shit luck, scolded something in a low voice, hugged the pillow and covered his head, and fell asleep.
β¦β¦
The days went by, and soon it was the day of the interview.
Lu Mingfei raised his head and put on the cheap suit that his aunt bought. Because he had trained his interview skills with Lao Tang in advance, he was extremely confident today, as if he was about to go to the battlefield.
When the aunt looked at Lu Mingfei's confident look, she was also a little shocked.
After changing into a suit, Lu Mingfei, who straightens his waist, is actually a little handsome, and his temperament is completely different from the previous image of a declining boy, and even a bit of a business elite - if it weren't for the fact that the suit itself is too cheap.
"The interview took place at the Regent Hotel." Lu Mingfei exhaled.
The Regent Hotel is a well-known five-star hotel in the city, which is very classy.
Half an hour later, Lu Mingfei took a taxi and got out in front of the hotel, looked at his dress against the door glass, was murderous, and then strode in.
