"Now, let's give the microphone to Jerry."

Bright beams of light swept overhead interrupted Gu Weijing's brief musings about the artwork.

The infrastructure of private schools is quite good.

For the rehearsals of Shakespeare's plays and sorority dances in English grammar classes, there are special spotlights that can be turned above the school's auditorium.

I don't know when,

The spotlight above the auditorium turned on, and the pillar of light swept through the crowd of senior groups, and finally landed on the heads of the boys who stood up from Gu Weijing's rows of seats.

The lights in the rest of the auditorium went out, and it was black, except for the only figure standing in the light.

The main point guard of the basketball varsity team, at this time, his expression was proudly bathed in the focus of his classmates' eyes, and his curly hair dyed blonde was as bright as glitter powder in the spotlight.

"Thank you, thank you for your encouragement, I just want to give a little love to the stray pets on the streets."

Jerry said loudly that he just wanted to do good, and winning the award was just a thing that was not worth mentioning, and bowed to the classmates who applauded him from all directions.

It looks like an Oscar.

The screams of the girls and the whistles of the boys were constantly heard in the auditorium.

"Please be humble, in the last 10 years that I have been taught, few students in our school have received such high-profile media coverage. This is not only a reflection of the Dulwich School motto of "Innovation, Freedom, Fraternity", but also the noble spirit of the people of Dulwich......"

The standard of this commendation meeting is exceptionally high.

The old Canadian principals from North America who have always pursued the concept of student school management and sent to Myanmar from North America appeared on the stage at this time and wanted to say a few words in this kind of activity.

The old principal took the microphone from the president of the girls' student council and walked briskly down the aisle between the stepped chairs.

The old gentleman patted Jerry on the shoulder, and at the same time held the microphone with a smile on his face, preaching Dulwich's philosophy of teaching and running the school.

A reporter from the campus news agency crouched in front of the auditorium seat, holding a Nikon SLR camera aloft, the flash flashing incessantly.

The old headmaster seemed to be deliberately trying to create some kind of dramatic stage effect.

His tone suddenly paused slightly for a few seconds, and then he pulled out a small box from his pocket and showed it to everyone.

“…… I would like to announce a decision here. The Dulwich Group headquarters highly praised Jerry for his pet euthanasia program, and after contacting the London Scout Association, a first-class love badge was awarded to Mr. Jerry Lorenz in recognition of his good deeds. ”

Inside the box is a tin pin medal with the head of a golden retriever, reflecting a metallic sheen in the spotlight.

Coaxing-

"What's that?"

"Boy Scout Medal of Love."

"How many levels, did I hear me right? Level? ”

"It's the first class, the highest honor of the Boy Scouts, the same style of David Beckham, Nelson Mandela, Neil Armstrong and the Duke of Cambridge. Boss, this is awesome, it's going to fly. ”

The badge looked like a child's toy, but all the students showed expressions of amazement and envy.

The reporter who was squatting in front of the school news agency was about to smoke when the shutter of his camera was pressed.

Scout is the world's largest and most influential youth activity organization, with members covering approximately 300 million young people aged 4-25 and in different countries around the world.

Its content covers all aspects of field physical training, daily social welfare, and participation in popular science lectures.

This form of social activity was invented by Professor Robert of the University of Oxford at the end of the 19th century, and he was knighted by the King of England for his outstanding contribution to children's education.

The Scout program has always been part of the culture of Western-style school social activities.

Even the reputation of the Boy Scouts has been tarnished in recent years by the recurring child sexual abuse scandals.

Even the Boy Scouts Association of the United States went bankrupt because of the sex scandal, but it is still the largest social organization for minors in the world.

Students in Dongxia generally need to register a community volunteer or something during the holidays.

Foreign students often participate in Boy Scout activities from an early age.

Myanmar actually has its own official organization of Boy Scouts.

But all Dulwich students are registered as more 'authentic' Scouts of England and organise relevant social activities each school year.

This is also an important promotional item on the homepage of the International School.

The dog badge awarded to Jerry in the old principal's hand, despite its childish appearance, is one of the highest honors that a student under a Western-style education can get in middle school.

It's like a soldier's medal of merit.

"I heard that there was a senior at Dulwich College in Cairo, Egypt who received a first-class Boy Scout medal a few years ago, and when he applied to college, Yale gave him a full scholarship."

"Cut, what is this. I read the news in the Sunday Weekly newspaper that there was an old man in Portugal who, by virtue of the prestige of the high-ranking Boy Scout badge, slept with a full quarter of the girls in the summer camp who wanted to associate with him during the school vacation. ”

“…… Awesome. ”

Even the classmates who didn't think much of Jerry in the past kept their mouths shut in front of this first-class medal of honor.

The Boy Scout system is highly rewarded, with hundreds of different badges awarded to outstanding youths with varying degrees of difficulty.

Easier,

For example, if you live independently for a day of camping, you can get a "basic campfire badge", visit five museums, and write a 500-word science essay respectively, and you can get a "basic science popularization badge" after submitting it, and you can get a "basic love badge" by helping the old lady cross the road, etc.

There are also badges that have a very high gold content.

The British Scout insignia is divided into four grades: Basic, Rank III, Grade II, and Class I.

Both the Basic and Level 3 badges are types that can be easily obtained as long as you volunteer for enough time and participate in the corresponding activities regularly.

It's very difficult to get the second level,

First-class badges are even rarer.

For example, the dog badge in the hands of the Canadian principal is such a first-class badge with a high gold content.

It requires a "special act of animal protection love" to be obtained.

"Since our inception in 1957, only 61 students across Dulwich College have received the Boy Scout Badge of Honour I at our nine campuses around the world, an average of less than one a year. This is the first time since the establishment of the Myanmar campus. I heard that you were also selected by Mrs. Sakai for the improvement class? ”

Jerry nodded smugly.

"What a good young man."

The principal looked at Jerry happily, as if he was looking at a walking board of directors' special prize for his teaching performance this year.

"It seems that this year, in addition to Ms. Sakai, we will have another student who is expected to hit the top 10 of the world's top universities. Dulwich is proud of you as a talented young student, Mr Jerry. ”

It's not that the headmaster is uninformed and makes a fuss about a small badge.

Rather, in the eyes of the admissions offices of Western universities, whoever gets a high-level Scout badge means that he has "outstanding creativity", "brilliant mind" and "leader-like potential", which is synonymous with excellence in character and learning.

It is even more remarkable than a student's resume with a simple high school GPA of 3.8 and excellent grades in all subjects.

It is probably similar to the concepts of "Top Ten Outstanding Teenagers at the Municipal Level", "Three Good Students in Prefecture-level Cities" or "Advanced Individuals with Righteousness and Courage".

Many famous British and American politicians, prime ministers and cabinet ministers have been recipients of the Boy Scout badge of the first class.

To this day, on the wiki homepage of these big names, such badges are displayed in them as an important honor from their student days, and they are no less important than the graduation certificates of prestigious schools.

"The first-class love badge is really outstanding."

The principal carefully pinned the dog badge to the chest of Jerry's school uniform: "If I had such a badge when I was a child, I think I would wear it twenty-four hours a day, and I wouldn't take it off when I went to bed." ”

Probably this kind of animal love euthanasia project, especially scratched the itch of the Scout badge review department, even the principal did not expect that he could really apply for a "first-class love badge" from the United Kingdom.

There are many students at Dulwich College who have won awards in the community, but there has never been such a prestigious award.

It seems that he has really exploded in performance this year,

A good guy like Miss Sakai transferred to another school, which can only be regarded as his luck.

But Jerry is a kind of school that has been cultivated by the real school, and if he can really apply to the top ten schools in the world in the QS art category, it will be quite a long-faced thing in the school board.

The old principal handed the microphone in his hand to Jerry and said with a smile: "Can you share two sentences of your creation and award-winning experience with the students?" ”

"I've always been a very kind animal person. One day in my English grammar class at school, when I heard the teacher reciting William Wordsworth's famous poem "The Lost Love", my heart was even more touched, I wanted to do something for the animals, and my father also expressed support for my plan, and I had such an opportunity some time ago......"

Jerry has clearly practiced his speech meticulously.

He spoke in a series of ways, and when he talked about those abandoned cats and dogs, he waved his fist from time to time to express his indignation.

Very leader-like.

Gu Weijing also had to admit,

Jerry at this time looked quite attractive.

He is handsome, has good sports, and has money and love in his family. Such a boy is not a man of the year in school, who is?

"Finally, I would like to make a special note that during the filming of the micro-film, I would like to thank one of our classmates for his help."

Jerry's tone suddenly deepened at the end.

He clapped his palms and raised his arm, "That's our Miss Mona Sandnu." MS. SANDENU IS THE ON-SITE AND POST-PRODUCTION STAFF OF THE SHORT FILM "THE LOST LOVE", AND SHE IS VERY GRATEFUL TO MISS SANDENU FOR HER DEDICATION AND COMPANIONSHIP DURING THE FILMING PROCESS. Let us give a round of applause to this lovely and adorable girl. ”

The news caused a moment of silence in the audience.

And then

It's applause like a mountain roaring out of a tsunami.

The noise of the people seemed to be about to tear down the roof of the school's auditorium.

"It's so romantic."

"The two of them are really together, I know."

"The two made a micro-film together before graduation...... also won an award at the film festival, like a scene only in a campus love movie. ”

"Wow, if anyone does this to me, my mother will give him a monkey."

"No, I'm too sour, such a golden boy and girl, I can't give anyone else a way to live."

The discussion among the students is getting louder and louder, and I don't know if it was arranged by the younger brothers of Jerry's basketball team, or if this situation is a matter of course.

First, a classmate shouted: "Kiss one!" ”

Then the atmosphere began to intensify, and the whole audience began to heckle.

Even the children in the junior group clapped their hands vigorously and shouted together in such a cheerful atmosphere.

"Kiss one!"

"Kiss one!"

"Kiss one!"

The headmaster was stunned for a moment, then hesitated, but did not stop the commotion in the auditorium.

To be a villain at this moment, the old headmaster felt that he was a little too bad for himself.

He just smiled helplessly, sighed at the restless love of adolescent boys and girls, and crossed his arms and let the students mess around.

The lighting engineer behind the stage of the school auditorium also belongs to the master who does not think it is a big deal to watch the excitement. He also set out a spotlight to hit the female students on the host stage.

Mona was still standing on the side of the stage projection cloth, holding the teleprompter card she had just presided over the commendation meeting, her face was cold, and her facial features were exquisite.

Jerry walked towards the front of the stage.

The dark-haired handsome girl and the blonde-haired cool guy in the spotlight slowly approach, and this scene is almost like the love between a prince and a princess in "Grimm's Fairy Tales".

If you don't come to kiss one,

The audience felt that it was unreasonable.

Mona was a little surprised under the light.

She had no idea that Jerry would say such a thing.

Jerry did invite her to participate in the filming of the pet protection micro-film "Lost Love" when she first started school, and played the heroine in it.

However, Mona herself refused this opportunity, let alone went to the scene and post-production personnel during the filming of the micro-film.

At first glance, Jerry's rhetoric.

Mona frowned, a little overwhelmed, she saw Jerry walk onto the stage, and subconsciously took a step back.

"I didn't mean anything else, I didn't inform you beforehand, I just wanted to surprise you."

Jerry noticed Mona's physical resistance, shook his head slightly, reminded himself not to rush, and stopped with a smile and stood a few meters in front of Mona.

He lowered his voice and whispered: "Anyway, it's a project organized by my father, and there is still a vacancy in the column at the end of the field service. ”

"In this way, you will have a good resume in social activities when you apply to universities."

Jerry points to the screen to the side, where the video stops at the last frame of the film, acknowledging the filmmaker.

Mona didn't look closely just now, but at this time she found that her name was indeed filled in the column of [Field Affairs, Post-production].

"Miss Sandnu, you won't blame me for my kindness, will you?"

Jerry said with a smile.
