Chapter 43 A Difficult Question
Surrounded by admissions teachers from Ji University and Jinghua University, Xu You suddenly felt a little confused.
This problem, which was once out of reach for Xu You, was finally put on the table.
Should I choose Jinghua or Jida?
"Can I go back and discuss this with my parents?"
For such a major issue concerning his future life, Xu You was unable to make his own decision for a while.
After all, Xu You is just a high school student and doesn’t know what impact choosing which school or major will have on his future.
Parents should give themselves better advice on these issues.
"Of course, of course, I will definitely go back and discuss it with my parents. But Xu You, let me add that the five contestants who represented China in IPhO last year were all recommended to study at the Department of Physics of Ji University."
"Yes, this kind of thing must be discussed with the parents. But in fact, everyone knows that in terms of major scientific and technological achievements this year, Jinghua is the first among Huaxia universities."
Somehow, there was a hint of tension between the admissions teachers on both sides.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu You quickly made an excuse to escape from the scene.
Before leaving, Xu You had to add the WeChat accounts of the admissions teachers of Jinghua and Ji University and write down their phone numbers.
Afterwards, the competition organizers announced the final list of winners and held an award ceremony.
The specific scores and rankings of the candidates will not be announced in the final list of winners.
Of course, everyone knows that the order of candidates on the award list is actually the final ranking.
The regulation of not announcing scores is also intended to preserve the self-esteem of some candidates as much as possible.
After all, due to the difficulty of the questions themselves, some candidates' scores are really too poor.
A perfect score like Xu You's will not be directly seen on the list of winners. Only the internal competition organizers, provincial team leaders and candidates will know about it.
After learning that Xu You had won the award, Xu You's relatives, friends, teachers and classmates all expressed their congratulations to Xu You.
[Xu Zhou: My son is so awesome! Dad will make whatever you want to eat when you get home! ]
[Wu Jing: Don’t rush to sign the recommendation agreement. Go back and study it carefully with your dad first. Remember to tell me when you are done. Mom suggests that you should not study materials. Of course, if you really like it, Mom has no objection.]
[Liu Yanli: Congratulations, Xu You! You don't need to come back to class in the future. Take some time to come back and tell your classmates about your learning experience. You are a role model for our No. 4 Middle School! ]
[Gao Shang: You are amazing, but I was also very smart and chose you. Hey, did Hu Shucheng cry so hard? It was a good result, but the policy has changed. Let him come back and prepare for the college entrance examination.]
[Zhao Shuang: Congratulations, Xu You! Fortunately, you didn't listen to the teacher. If you gave up the competition, the teacher would be the sinner. You should continue to stick to your own choice and don't be swayed by other people's opinions.]
[Dong Chao: Youshen is awesome! From now on I can also tell others that my deskmate is number one in the country! ]
[Yuan Hua: The most honorable thing in my life is to be the physics class representative in Class 6. You represent the ceiling of physics, while I represent the average level of physics in Class 6]
[Lu Zhiyao: You are standing me up. You will never have a chance to get a higher score than me. But congratulations. You agreed to choose Ji University. Don’t stand me up again this time.]
…
Faced with one congratulatory message after another, Xu You really couldn't reply to them one by one.
After selecting some important messages to reply to, Xu You could only post a circle of friends to thank everyone for their congratulations.
On the return flight, Xu You and Hu Shucheng sat together.
After a few days of calming down, Hu Shucheng's mood has become very peaceful.
After all, compared with the previous session, Hu Shucheng's performance has improved qualitatively.
From Guoyin to Guojin, it seems to be just a step away.
But the effort behind it is hard for ordinary people to imagine.
In the past few days, Hu Shucheng has been thinking about his future direction.
"Xu You, I've been thinking about this seriously these past few days. I may not sign up for Jingbei's Strong Foundation Program."
Xu You was stunned when he heard this.
"Why? According to your ranking , you have a great advantage even if you apply for Jingbei's strong foundation."
"You can only apply to one school under the Strong Foundation Program, and the ratio of the shortlisted to the final admission is 6:1. My normal college entrance examination score is barely a 985. I want to be safe with the Strong Foundation Program, otherwise I can only go to a low-end 985 like Ningjiang University."
Because the examination for the Strong Foundation Plan will test three subjects: mathematics, physics and chemistry.
Even though Hu Shucheng is very strong in physics, he does not have much advantage over those students who are also shortlisted for the Jingbei Strong Foundation Program.
"I want to try Jihang. If I apply to Jihang, it should be more stable. And I also prefer engineering. Theory is not my strong point."
As early as No. 4 Middle School, Hu Shucheng and Xu You discussed their future direction together.
At that time, going to the Department of Physics at Ji University was the first choice for both of them.
Schools such as Jihang University, Jilin University of Technology, and Ice University of Technology are also within the consideration of the two.
"Actually, regardless of the reputation of those schools, I really want to go to Jihang the most. I feel that I will be satisfied in my lifetime if I can participate in China's aerospace projects and send spacecraft and space stations into space."
After calming down, Hu Shucheng didn't feel that he had to go to Jingbei anymore.
Originally, Hu Shucheng was not particularly fond of theoretical research. If he were to engage in pure theory, he might not be able to stay focused.
Listening to Hu Shucheng talking about aerospace, Xu You also felt itchy in his heart.
As a man who loves his motherland and science.
Didn’t Xu You also have a dream of going into space?
At this time, Xu You began to waver in his choice of future.
"Old Hu, I don't think so either. Jingbei is my only two candidates. Now that you mention it, I also want to develop in this direction."
Hu Shucheng waved his hand when he heard this.
"It's different, Xu You. With your ability, there is no problem in developing in the field of aerospace. But basic theory is equally important. The level of China's aerospace is not entirely determined by aerospace people."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"For example, spacecraft materials. Some spacecraft materials may not be developed by the aerospace system itself, and may require cooperation with other institutions or laboratories. Similarly, aerospace technology also involves some basic theories, simulation software, and so on. Even if your major is not aerospace, you can still make key contributions to China's aerospace industry."
Listening to Hu Shucheng's words, Xu You also nodded.
Xu You had to admit that in these aspects, Hu Shucheng knew much more than he did.
"Of course, there is another more important reason why I suggest you go to these two schools, Jingbei."
