Chapter 131 College Entrance Examination
Rong Yuan's idea came to him suddenly, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was a good idea.
He himself would not spend time on starting a company to make money. He did not have the time, nor did he have the ability to do so. These days, Wandou had collected a lot of companies that were capable of promoting the cotton candy series of products for him, but after a rough look, Rong Yuan found that all businessmen were dishonest. No matter which partner he chose, it was impossible to completely let go and give 100% trust. It was inevitable that there would be intrigues between contract terms, various documents, authority and interests. This was not the situation he wanted to see.
If it were Jin Yang, there would be no need to worry about these problems. Moreover, Jin Yang has funds, ability, and government connections. Even if he has no business foundation, as long as he wants to learn, he can learn it quickly. It is foreseeable that the prospects of cotton candy will be very good, and it will bring them countless wealth in the future. It is better for them to make money by themselves than to let others make money.
Jin Yang was stunned. He had never thought of this possibility, nor did he plan to start a company before graduating from college. To be exact, he had not yet decided what he wanted to do in the future. Rather than making money, he might want to be a travel reporter or something like that. However, seeing Rong Yuan staring at him with expectant eyes, he nodded and smiled and said, "Okay. But I have no experience, so don't blame me if you lose money."
…
Jin Hua has been very troubled recently, and the source of his trouble is his daughter Jin Yu.
In fact, looking back, Jin Yu was also very cute when he was a child. His little face was so tender that you could pinch water out of it. He would hug his legs and say, "I will be a bride in the future, and my dad will be the groom." He would also hold his fingers in his mouth and look at the toys in the toy city and want to play with them very much, but he wouldn't say it. When he blinked his big eyes and looked at you eagerly, he was so cute that your heart would melt.
But when did the little bun in my memory become what it is now?
He recalled an incident his secretary had reported to him a few days ago: a childhood friend of his daughter, a rich second-generation boy, had held a nude party at a villa in the suburbs, which was actually an absurd way of living under the guise of "pure spiritual connection." Jin Yu, a teenage girl, had sneaked into the party and thrown a bag of live rats and snakes in, causing a huge mess.
Jin Hua sighed for a while. He would worry about his daughter's education every one or two weeks. At the same time, he admired his second brother very much. How could he teach his son so well? If Jin Yu had one tenth of Jin Yang's understanding, he could live twenty years longer.
Just as Jin Hua was thinking about how well behaved and sensible Jin Yang was, he received a call from Jin Yang. After a few pleasantries, Jin Yang got to the point: "Uncle, I remember that your head office has a department that is specifically responsible for patent applications and handling product patent disputes, right?"
Nowadays, many companies will apply for patents immediately when they have any inventions, big or small, and the benefits are self-evident. In the past, people in the sugar country did not have this awareness, which sometimes led to them having to pay patent fees to others when they wanted to use the things they invented first, which caused them to suffer a lot of losses.
"Yeah, that's right. Why do you care about this?"
"Xiaoyuan has an invention, and I would like to ask my uncle's company to apply for a patent. Of course, just let me know how much it will cost."
"Xiaoyuan, that's your friend, right? I've heard your mom talk about him." Jin Hua found it funny that these two kids had to seriously apply for a patent for something they had come up with. He didn't take it seriously and just thought of it as a way to cheer up his nephew, saying, "Okay, no problem. I'll send the documents needed for the application to your email address later, and you can mail them to me when you're ready."
Jin Yang asked again: "Are the documents required for application in each country the same?"
Jin Hua laughed: "Why, how many countries do you want to apply for patents in?"
"All of them," Jin Yang said on the phone. "As long as there are countries with patent laws, all of them."
Jin Yang persuaded Jin Hua with all his might, and finally he believed that he really wanted to apply for a patent and was not just teasing him or wasting money. After Jin Hua realized Jin Yang's serious attitude, he suddenly became very interested in their invention. He knew that this nephew was much more sensible than his daughter who was like the reincarnation of the devil. Since he was so ambitious to obtain patents from all countries, it meant that their invention was probably really extraordinary.
Jin Hua was well-informed and would not underestimate the potential achievements of the two men just because they were young. He tried to express his intention to cooperate, but was rejected by Jin Yang, who claimed ownership. Jin Hua naturally could not snatch the meat from his nephew, so he had to give up, but he was very curious about the invention.
--To be honest, when Jin Hua saw the documents sent by Jin Yang, his businessman nature almost took over and he wanted to rob and take the documents. Fortunately, he remembered their blood relationship in time, and remembered the cold faces of his elder and second brothers and the intimidating demeanor of the old man. Jin Hua silently chanted "Amitabha" hundreds of times in his heart, and finally put down his butcher knife and became a Buddha on the spot, without doing anything wrong.
…
After handing over the patent issue to professionals, Jin Yang's first priority became the upcoming college entrance examination. Rong Yuan also took out half of his time to review textbooks and the other half to improve the machine tools of a domestic manufacturer, striving to achieve full mechanization of cotton candy production after the company is established.
Zhou Yuan still had more than a month before her final exams, and her main job was to run around City A with a bunch of information Rong Yuan gave her to select a site for the future factory. Rong Yuan completely handed this matter over to her, and Zhou Yuan felt that she had a great responsibility. In order to live up to Rong Yuan's expectations, she investigated and researched every detail, and her legs became thinner after running for a few days.
It rained a little at night, and the air became particularly comfortable when he woke up in the morning. After washing up, Rong Yuan went to the restaurant and saw that breakfast was already on the table. Zheng Yirou was placing chopsticks, and Jin Bai helped to bring the porridge out from the kitchen.
During the college entrance examination, Zheng Yirou felt that Rong Yuan was still living in the suburbs and was too far from the school. He might not be able to get to the test site in the morning, and the tight schedule would affect his performance in the test. Although Rong Yuan himself did not feel any impact, he temporarily moved into their home at Zheng Yirou's insistence.
" Good morning, uncle. Good morning, Aunt Zheng." Rong Yuan greeted them.
Jin Bai looked at him and nodded. Zheng Yirou smiled and said, "Come and sit down. Do you want sweet or salty soy milk?"
“Sweet.”
As soon as Rong Yuan sat down, he saw Jin Yang coming down from upstairs yawning, looking as if he had not woken up yet.
The breakfast was rich, or rather, a little too rich. Zheng Yirou was afraid that they would not eat to their liking, so she prepared many kinds of food, including white porridge, lean meat porridge, steamed buns, egg pancakes, scallion pancakes, spring rolls, noodles, soy milk, milk... The whole table was filled with them, just like a buffet. She asked them to eat more, but then she was worried that they would feel uncomfortable during the exam if they ate too much. Rong Yuan and Jin Yang looked at each other helplessly, feeling that she was the one who was most like someone who was going to take an exam in the room.
Jin Bai had developed a habit in the army, and he always ate very quickly. After finishing his meal, he sat at the table and read the newspaper. After they both finished eating, he asked, "Is everything ready?"
"I'm ready."
"Check it again, don't forget to bring your admission ticket when the time comes."
In fact, they had confirmed everything when they were packing yesterday, and also checked it this morning, but Jin Bai specifically reminded them again. The two knew that this was also out of concern, so they obediently checked it again.
Jin Yang lifted up the translucent file bag and showed it to Jin Bai, saying, "Don't worry, Dad, everything is fine! There's nothing left to be missed!"
"Okay, let's go."
Jin Bai looked back at the newspaper. Zheng Yirou wanted to say something but hesitated. She had a lot to say, but she was afraid of causing them psychological burden, so she forced herself not to say it.
Jin Yang seemed particularly heartless at this moment, as if he didn't feel his mother's worry at all. He put on his shoes and was about to go out. Suddenly, he leaned forward and stuck his head out of the hallway, shouting, "Dad, you dropped the newspaper!"
Jin Bai's expression froze, and he quickly turned the newspaper over, then looked again - eh? Why is it still upside down?
Having noticed long ago that his gaze was not on the newspaper at all, Jin Yang, who had deceived his father once, went out with a big laugh. When he walked outside, he saw Rong Yuan standing on the side of the road waiting for him, with his head lowered and his brows slightly frowned, looking at a butterfly that had landed on his arm, as if he was wondering whether to drive it away.
Jin Yang paused, then walked over, and the airflow caused startled the butterfly. Watching the pair of tender yellow wings flapping away, the two walked side by side to the school. Their exam sites were both in No. 1 Middle School, but in different examination rooms.
After a moment of silence, Jin Yang asked, "Xiao Yuan, are you nervous?"
"What do you think?" Rong Yuan asked back. This exam was not as important to him as it was to others in determining their lives . He came here just to put a perfect end to his high school career.
"Haha, it seems I just said something nonsense." Jin Yang laughed dryly, but there was no smile in his eyes. He suddenly felt sad in his heart. He said reluctantly: "After the exam, we will not be in the same school."
Rong Yuan was silent for a while, then replied, "Yeah."
After the Olympic Games, he decided to go to the Medical University of City B, which is the best medical school in the country, with the best instructors, the most advanced equipment, and the most cutting-edge research projects. Jin Yang applied for the School of Journalism at the University of City A.
The three members of the Jin family are all family-oriented. Many years ago, Jin Bai gave up his bright future in the central government for his wife and children, and has been rooted in the small public security bureau in City B for nearly 20 years. Last year, since Jin Yang was in danger many times, he applied for a transfer to a civilian position in order to no longer bring danger to them and to stop them from worrying about him all day long. And Jin Yang is not an adventurous person. Since his study needs can be met in City A, he will not abandon his parents and go to another city to study, and only come back once or twice a year.
There was no conversation along the way. When Rong Yuan sat in the examination room and picked up his pen, he still felt melancholy about the impending separation.
…
The flames spurted out, pushing the cylinder above to fly faster and faster toward the sky. Ren Sanda watched the rocket gradually become a faint dot in the sky, and he felt the excitement of witnessing the rocket launch for the first time.
He took out the photos from an envelope with frayed edges and looked at them. He had done this countless times since the photos were sent back by the lunar rover before it was scrapped last year. Although the uproar in the space agency at that time, with everyone excited and worried, and the crazy arguments and doubts, were a thing of the past, every time he saw these photos, he still had doubts in his heart - are these real?
The top photo showed a suspended city with no sky or earth, and the hexahedral crystal in the center was emitting a dazzling light.
