Chapter 22 Lu Zhiyao's Secret
Schools like Jihang University, Jilin University of Technology, Ice University of Technology, etc. are also very good schools.
There are even some students who, even if their scores exceed the Jingbei admission line, will resolutely choose to go to other schools to study their ideal majors.
"Of course, if my scores are high enough, I would still choose Jingbei first. If I can't go to Jingbei, it would also be nice to go to Jihang to do aerospace or something. Just think about sending a rocket weighing dozens of tons into space, it's exciting!" said Hu Shucheng.
"Yeah, that makes me want to study rockets in the future!"
After hearing Hu Shucheng's fantasy, Xu You felt itchy in his heart.
"By the way, Xu You, let me ask you a question. If you become a scientific researcher in the future, and there is a better opportunity for further study abroad, but the country also has a key project that requires your participation. What will you choose?"
Xu You didn't know why Hu Shucheng suddenly asked this question.
But after a brief consideration, Xu You answered decisively:
"I will give up this opportunity and choose to continue to invest in the project."
After hearing Xu You's answer, Hu Shucheng also became interested.
"If you were told that this opportunity was extremely valuable and you might never get it again if you missed it, would you still make this choice?"
Xu You did not directly answer Hu Shucheng's question, but changed his angle and said:
"Since I have participated in such a project, why would I care about my personal gains and losses? If there are some aspects that we are really not as good as foreign countries, then we should focus on research and study them. One day, we will definitely surpass them!"
Hearing Xu You's answer, Hu Shucheng burst into laughter.
"As expected of you, you are the God of Protection. You can speak to my heart. From now on, you are no longer my friend, Hu Shucheng."
Xu You was stunned. Why are you breaking up with me?
"From now on, Xu You, you are my, Hu Shucheng's brother!" Hu Shucheng said with a smile.
In fact, Hu Shucheng just wanted to understand Xu You’s thoughts through this question.
If Xu You studies hard only for personal gain, then Xu You is not worth making friends with.
But Xu You's answer made Hu Shucheng very satisfied.
"Although many people think that I, Hu Shucheng, am a nerd, I don't think that a person can be fully judged by academic performance. Everyone has their own talents and specialties, which don't necessarily have to be used in academic subjects. But what I hate most are those top students who go abroad for further studies and end up building other countries!"
Xu You also frowned after hearing this.
Isn't that what he thought too?
Indeed, everyone has the freedom to choose their own future.
But in Xu You's heart, he always knew where his roots were.
"No matter whether it is ordinary or great, I will do my best to do something for this country. Don't worry, I will definitely not leave." Xu You said solemnly.
"Me too!"
Xu You and Hu Shucheng held hands tightly and made this promise.
Of course, what I just said is still too far away for the two of them.
The immediate goal is to do well in the physics competition rematch and enter the provincial team.
After returning home, Xu You received a message from Lu Zhiyao.
There is no text, just a cat emoticon.
A timid cat, as if afraid of something.
After reading it, Xu You replied: "I didn't see you today, didn't you go to the exam?"
Lu Zhiyao: "I gave up. I felt that even if I passed the preliminary round, I would not be able to pass the semi-final. That kind of question is not suitable for an ordinary student like me."
In fact, with Lu Zhiyao's ability, it would not be a problem for her to enter the semi-finals.
However, if you can't get a high score in the semi-finals, there is no point in participating in the competition.
Therefore, Xu You did not think there was anything wrong with Lu Zhiyao giving up the competition.
This is just a wise choice after weighing the pros and cons.
only……
Lu Zhiyao, you are the top student in the school, yet you call yourself an ordinary student.
So what do we think later?
Xu You: "Am I seeing right? Who is an ordinary student? Then what are we, poor students?"
Lu Zhiyao: "Some people only need one month to prepare for the competition. Do you think I am just an ordinary student compared to such people?"
Xu You also laughed when he heard this.
This is obviously a connotation to myself.
Xu You: "Everyone has their own strengths. I've suddenly become more interested in physics recently. But my total score is still lower than yours. You're really not ordinary at all."
Lu Zhiyao: "Do you want to know some secrets? About the things you are curious about? You must promise not to tell anyone else."
After reading Lu Zhiyao's words, Xu You couldn't help but get excited.
Lu Zhiyao, is she actually going to take the initiative to tell me this secret?
This is something that all the students in Class 6 and even the entire grade are curious about.
Xu You was naturally very interested, but he was just too embarrassed to ask before.
Xu You: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else."
Next, Lu Zhiyao told Xu You about an experience she had in high school.
It turned out that Lu Zhiyao had taken a few months off from school due to health reasons.
After returning to school, Lu Zhiyao could no longer keep up with the class progress.
After all, it is the best provincial experimental middle school in the province. Even Lu Zhiyao cannot keep up with the pace after missing a lot of courses.
After discussing with her family, Lu Zhiyao made a difficult decision.
Repeat a grade.
But Lu Zhiyao no longer wanted to study at the Provincial Experimental Middle School.
I wonder what my former classmates would think if they saw that I was held back.
Even if they didn't think much of it, Lu Zhiyao herself would be embarrassed to face them.
In the end, Lu Zhiyao decided to transfer to No. 4 Middle School which was closer to her home.
Because Lu Zhiyao had basically completed high school courses and hardly relied on teachers, she decided to transfer to a regular class.
In this way, one can also obtain the privilege of self-study without being bound by the classroom.
Xu You : "So, you are actually one year older than all of us?"
Lu Zhiyao: "I skipped a grade before, so it's like we're even, we're still in the same grade."
Xu You: "That's good, so I don't have to call you senior sister in the future."
After telling Xu You the secret that had been buried in her heart for a long time, Lu Zhiyao finally felt much better.
After such a long time, I finally found someone who can understand me and is worth talking to.
Lu Zhiyao: "I feel my current results are very dangerous, so it's better to cut losses in time. You are really suitable for the competition, try to get a guaranteed admission."
Xu You: "Thank you for your good wishes. I will wait for you at Ji University."
Lu Zhiyao: "Tsk, you're still below me on the final list."
Xu You: "I will definitely be above you in the next monthly exam!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Xu You quickly put his phone aside and started deep learning.
…
After a tense wait, Gao Shang finally received the transcript of the physics competition preliminary round, as well as the list of candidates from No. 4 Middle School who entered the semi-finals.
"Twelve! That's a record!"
After seeing the final number of shortlisted candidates, Gao Shang couldn't help but get excited and pulled out a few more strands of his hair.
The already limited amount of hair became even worse.
"Xu You! That's amazing!"
When Gao Shang saw Xu You's score, he couldn't help but sigh again.
In the preliminary test, Xu You scored 198 out of 200 points.
Such results are considered high in the whole country.
Naturally, it ranked first among the four middle schools.
