Ankang has been in a state of confusion lately. There was more than one thing that confused him, but there was one that was the most confusing to him.

Because my uncle and aunt are very busy with work, Ankang is usually tutoring her cousin Lin Mushuang's homework. Now Lin Mushuang, who is in the third year of junior high school, is about to prepare for the high school entrance examination, which is a critical period when someone needs to be tutored and urged, but his uncle does not let Ankang continue to tutor.

"Why?" An Kang asked.

"You're in your second year of high school now, and you're going to take the college entrance examination in another year. Your high school classes have been completed early, and now you are in intensive revision. The college entrance examination is more important than the high school entrance examination of Shuang, and it can't delay you. ”

"But there is still one year left in the college entrance examination, and Shuang has two months to take the high school entrance examination. She's a lot more pressing than I am. ”

"Both of you are urgent. You know, your parents have high hopes for you to get into college. Don't be distracted at this time, you must prepare well. ”

Since the day Ankang talked to his uncle, Lin Mushuang's high school entrance examination review was taken over by his uncle.

In addition, Ankang was also forbidden to accompany Lin Mushuang to Lujiazui to learn painting. Although Lin Mushuang was about to take the high school entrance examination, Lu Jiazui still went. It's just once a week instead of once a week. But to be healthy, you have to learn honestly at home.

One day, on the way to his uncle's ready-to-wear store with Lin Mushuang, Lin Mushuang said to Ankang: "My dad is far worse than you." It's not so much that he came to tutor me, but that I tutored him. He is still good at math, and he is basically blind in physics and chemistry. ”

"Then I'll tutor you."

"Forget it. My dad was a tough temper. He counsels him, he counsels. ”

An Kang looked at his cousin walking beside him, and seemed to have suddenly made a new discovery. Her breasts bulged out from some point to non-know. This made Ankang can't help but take a good look at this sister who gets along day and night.

Although Lin Mushuang is only a girl in the third year of junior high school, she has grown very quickly this year. If you don't look at her face, I think she is a high school student or even a college student.

When An Kang and Lin Mushuang were walking on the road, they often met their classmates. Some classmates said behind their backs that the two were "friends", which made the two blush, and repeatedly explained that they were cousins.

However, it is precisely because of such a thing that Ankang figured it out.

Ankang said to Lin Mushuang one day: "I understand why my uncle won't let me tutor you in your homework." ”

"Why?"

An Kang smiled mysteriously: "Think about it yourself." What do your classmates say? ”

Lin Mushuang thought of the "friend" mentioned by her classmates, and blushed and said, "Does my dad think so too?" ”

Of course he didn't think so. But it's better to prevent it than to prevent it from happening. What if you like me? ”

"Whew! You think beautifully! You're my cousin. ”

"Although it's a cousin, it's out of five suits. You are still a child and a flower of the motherland, so I have to protect you well. ”

"You're a child! Are my parents overthinking? ”

Another of Ankang's many bewilderments was that his aunt was still gentle with him, but the uncle, who had been gentle with him before, was becoming more and more serious, if not harsh, towards him.

Ankang doesn't know why. At first, he thought it was because of Lin Mushuang, but after Ankang followed his uncle's teachings, his uncle became more and more serious about him. In the past, his uncle didn't pay much attention to his studies, but recently, he would often stare at him and ask questions, which always made Ankang very nervous.

"Don't be nervous. That's what my dad is. When it is good, the father is kind and filial to the son, and when it is bad, the chicken flies and the dog jumps. When his temper came up, he didn't like anyone. Lin Mushuang comforted Ankang.

But An Kang felt that this matter seemed to be different from what Lin Mushuang thought.

"Isn't there anything unhappy about my uncle lately?"

Lin Mushuang thought about it, shook her head, and then continued to lower her head and fiddle with her sonywalkman. This player is a birthday gift from my aunt and uncle to my daughter. said it was a birthday gift for Lin Mushuang, but my aunt bought two at a time from the mall. One for Lin Mushuang and one for Ankang. This made Ankang very embarrassed, because there was still a tape recorder at home.

"It's not a gift. It's for you to learn English conveniently. My aunt explained.

Ankang did use this single player to learn English, but Lin Mushuang was not. Lin Mushuang mostly listens to songs with headphones on. She has recently become obsessed with Leslie Cheung, almost to the point of obsession, and asked Ankang to help her rip seven or eight albums of Leslie Cheung.

In order to rip the full version of the farewell music speech, Ankang also went to Puxi.

"I like this one the most." Lin Mushuang said, handing over a headset. Ankang tucked the headphones into his ears. is playing "The Love of the Year". Lin Mushuang had listened to it many times with a tape recorder before, and Ankang was familiar with it.

The two of them were sharing a headset and were listening to a song, and the uncle came back. The uncle glanced at them, and stopped talking.

Ankang hurriedly took off the headphones and gave Lin Mushuang to read in the room by herself.

After a while, my uncle came in and asked An Kang: "Kang, have you figured out which university you want to go to and what major you want to study?" ”

Ankang shook his head and said, "I want to learn mathematics and physics, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to use it after learning it." So I want to learn something practical. ”

"What do you mean by being practical?" Uncle sat down and asked.

"For example, English. There are so many foreigners and foreign companies in Shanghai, and English will definitely be used in the future, at least as a translator. ”

Ankang has really put a lot of effort into English recently. And all this effort was spent on the content of the listening and speaking training that was not taken in the college entrance examination.

This made Lin Mushuang very strange: "Brother, did you learn English so well in order to become a translator in the future?" ”

An Kang smiled and said, "I'm so that I don't need someone else to translate in the future." ”

Lin Mushuang pouted.

"Well, it's good to be a translator." My uncle said, "Have you ever thought about studying economics?" ”

"Economy?" Ankang never thought about it.

Because he has the impression that economics majors, like management majors, are the majors chosen by most students who do not have a specific professional direction. It is precisely because of the versatility that employment is at least guaranteed. But the problem is that because of its versatility, there is no scarcity that can help increase value.

In short, you can get a job, but you don't necessarily get a good job.

As soon as Ankang told him what he thought, his uncle smiled and said, "Whether you can find a good job depends on yourself." You know that Pudong will become China's financial center in the future? ”

An Kang nodded.

"So there will be a huge gap in economic and financial talent in the future. In the future, whether it is economics or finance, it will require very professional talents, rather than the current general-purpose talents. Although general-purpose talents have a wide range of outlets, they can do everything but have no expertise in anything, which is not an advantage but a disadvantage. The situation will change a lot in the future. At that time, finance was the same as mathematics and physics today, and it was incompetent. ”

The reason why Ankang is interested in mathematics and physics is precisely because they are highly specialized subjects. This is very much in line with Ankang's positioning of itself. If you go to any university, research institute or enterprise to do scientific research, it is very attractive to Ankang.

Today, I heard my uncle say that economics is also a highly professional discipline, which completely subverts Ankang's understanding of this discipline. Ankang also didn't understand why his uncle suggested that he take the economics major. Because my uncle never seemed to be interested in such a thing as an economics major.

Ankang asked his uncle this question.

My uncle replied, "The reason why I didn't care much about economics in the past was because I didn't know much about it. Aren't you going to take the college entrance examination in another year? I have recently spent some time learning about those universities and majors, as well as the future development trends of the country and industry, and I think you don't have to go to other schools in the future, just take the school in Shanghai and work in Lujiazui in the future. What do you see? ”

This time the conversation did not come to any conclusion, because Ankang himself felt that he did not particularly understand what his uncle was talking about, so he needed time to digest it.

However, I later learned from my aunt that my uncle actually took time out of his busy schedule to participate in some exchange meetings on college entrance examination and career selection, just to serve as a reference for Ankang to choose a major for the university entrance examination.

Ankang was deeply grateful to this distant uncle. He also knew that he had no way to discuss such things as choosing a major in college with his parents. Except for Tsinghua University, Peking University and two famous universities in this province, my parents don't know anything about other schools, let alone the myriad majors in the university.

It seems that this uncle is strict with Ankang, but he cares about him very much.
