A voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello. Is this Chen Zhou?"
Chen Zhou did not answer immediately. Instead, he moved the phone away and took a look. This was a landline. Who would call him from a landline?
I looked at the number again and really didn’t recognize it. Should I just hang up?
Just as Chen Zhou was wondering whether to hang up the phone, he heard the other end keep saying hello...
Chen Zhou thought about it and decided to listen to what the other party wanted to do. Then he said, "Hello, I'm Chen Zhou. May I ask who you are?"
The other party said, "Hello, Chen Zhou. I am Mr. Zhao Ming from the Admissions Office of Yenching University."
Hearing the other party claiming to be a teacher from Yanda University's Admissions Office, Chen Zhou couldn't help but frown. It's only been a short time since the college entrance examination, and I don't even know if the papers have been graded yet. Are you from the Admissions Office here?
The first thing Chen Zhou thought of was a scammer, so he wanted to hang up the phone.
Seeing that Chen Zhou did not respond, Zhao Ming continued, "It's like this, Chen Zhou. Our school has already made an assessment of you in advance. Based on your past grades, you meet our enrollment requirements, so we hope that after your college entrance examination scores come out, you can give priority to applying to our school."
Chen Zhou thought, "Why haven't I heard of this kind of operation? Can you make an estimate based on past scores? If you can make an estimate, why do you need the college entrance examination?"
Chen Zhou thought the other party was most likely a scammer, so he replied, "Sorry, Mr. Zhao, I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."
Chen Zhou was about to hang up the phone after he finished speaking.
"No, no, no, wait a minute, classmate Chen Zhou..."
Chen Zhou asked doubtfully: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Zhao Ming thought for a moment, then said, "Student Chen Zhou, as long as you meet our school's admission requirements after your college entrance examination scores come out, I can assure you right now that you will receive a guaranteed scholarship of 20,000 yuan."
This was the condition Zhao Ming could give in advance based on Chen Zhou's usual performance and the information he had heard...
Wow, the conditions are very tempting. 20,000 yuan is already a lot of money for Chen Zhou.
But why does this routine seem to have been heard before?
So Chen Zhou asked, "Teacher Zhao, are you really from the admissions office of Yanda University? How do you prove yourself?"
When Zhao Ming heard this, he was delighted. The other party had already considered whether it was true or not, which meant that the conditions met their requirements and there was a chance.
Zhao Ming said, "Student Chen Zhou, you can call Yenching University to check. It's easy to find out. Don't worry, I'm definitely not a liar. Moreover, as long as you agree to this..."
Chen Zhou interrupted, "How about this, Mr. Zhao, I'm going to hang up first. Let me check and verify your identity first."
Zhao Ming also knew that he couldn't be hasty, so he agreed and gave Chen Zhou the phone number of Yenching University. He also said that if Chen Zhou didn't believe it, he could go online and check it himself.
Chen Zhou just hung up the phone and opened Baidu search, and then there was another strange call.
This time, Chen Zhou did not rush to answer the call, but looked at the unfamiliar number.
This number is also a landline, and like the previous one, it starts with 010.
After thinking about it, Chen Zhou flicked his finger to refuse to answer the call.
Let’s verify one first.
Chen Zhou adjusted his chair to find a more comfortable position and began to search for information about the Admissions Office of Yenching University.
At this moment, an unexpected voice sounded in his mind.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the final task of the pre-task: Necessary Selection of the Best (Part 3)."
"Completion status: The host has excellent grades in all subjects in the college entrance examination, achieved; the total score is above 725 points, achieved; the necessary merit-based admission is achieved."
"Rewards: Linguistics experience points 500, Natural Science experience points 2000, Mental Medicine *30."
"Congratulations host, you have completed the pre-task for system activation."
"Completion status: The host re-took the current Chinese college entrance examination and successfully achieved the necessary merit-based admission."
"Accumulated rewards for the mission: 1000 Linguistics experience points, 3000 Natural Science experience points, 60 Mental Potion."
"The system is now officially activated, please wait for a moment."
Hearing this voice, Chen Zhou sat up straight instantly, holding the phone with an excited expression.
He silently followed the system's voice and calculated the number of psychiatric potions. This, this, this, is this the feeling of becoming rich overnight?
No more need to save money? No more need to eat in small bites...
Show your cards, stop pretending, become rich...
After the system prompt sound ended, Chen Zhou leaned back in his seat with excitement, closed his eyes, and his consciousness entered the system space.
Then, there were lines of prompts on the display screen.
Chen Zhou looked at them one by one, just like looking at his resume, no, it was a glorious record...
However, he was very curious about how this necessary merit-based admission was achieved? Hadn't he received the admission letter yet?
Chen Zhou suddenly thought of the phone call just now. It seemed that it was really the admissions teacher of Yanda University...
Oh, forget it, never mind, I'll fill in the application later...
Chen Zhou also made a preliminary calculation of the empirical values ​​of linguistics and natural sciences.
All pre-tasks have been completed, with a total of 2,000 experience points for linguistics and 6,000 experience points for natural sciences.
Subsequent system activation will definitely require experience points to upgrade, but I don’t know how much use these experience points can have.
Chen Zhou glanced at the display screen again. The system had not been activated yet, and the backpack was also locked.
Chen Zhou exited the system space with great regret. He actually didn't appreciate his wealth. This was his biggest regret...
After waiting for a while, Chen Zhou's mood gradually calmed down. He took another quick look and found that the system was still being activated.
"Does this thing take so long?" Chen Zhou muttered in his heart, "Forget it, just wait slowly. I've already waited for a year, so I don't mind this little bit of time..."
However, Chen Zhou had already put away his phone, so there was no need to check the information of Yenching University's Admissions Office.
Of course, he didn’t call back. He had already achieved a total score of 725. Was there any need for him to proactively contact these schools?
Chen Zhou moved his seat and started watching the movie on the bus.
After a while, Chen Zhou's phone rang again.
Caller ID: Teacher Wang Xuehui.
Chen Zhou pressed the answer button: "Hello, Teacher Wang?"
"Hey, Chen Zhou, what have you been busy with recently?" Wang Xuehui asked.
"Nothing, what's wrong?" Chen Zhou replied puzzledly.
"Uh... Chen Zhou, I want to tell you something. You have to be prepared. Someone may call you in the near future. They may be from the admissions office of Yanjing University, Shuimu University, Zhejiang University, Huaguo University of Science and Technology, or..."
"No, no, no, Teacher Wang, just say what you want to say. I know the names of these universities..." Chen Zhou couldn't help but interrupted Wang Xuehui.
"The teacher just wants to tell you that these universities will contact some students in advance based on their predictions of the students, in order to gain their favor and allow them to apply to their schools first. What the teacher wants to tell you is..."
Chen Zhou didn't hear clearly what Wang Xuehui said next. There was only one voice in his mind.
"Congratulations host, the system is activated!"
