24: Chapter 24 has already spread!
The notification sound for QQ suddenly rang out.
Zhao Yang took a look.
It was from Wang Ming.
"Brother Yang, you got into Beijing Forestry University???"
"Yeah."
Zhao Yang replied with a single word.
"How did you know?"
Zhao Yang felt slightly curious. He had only sent the message in the group chat a short while ago; he hadn't expected even Wang Ming to know already.
Is the circle really that magical?
"The entire First High circle knows! Even the neighboring Second High, and people in other circles know too!
Someone posted your admission record on their social media space, and it's in other student group chats too; it's spreading so widely now!
The whole story about picking up a 211 university with a score of 534 has completely spread!"
Looking at the message Wang Ming sent.
Zhao Yang smiled.
"If it's spread, then it's spread. I didn't steal or rob anyone. Besides, these people would have found out about this sooner or later anyway!"
Zhao Yang replied casually.
However, his mind was pondering.
Although this matter had spread widely among students, it should actually be fine; it wouldn't escalate to any significant level in society.
After all, no matter what, it was just a mid-tier 211 university like Beijing Forestry University.
It was only because his score was a bit too low that it attracted so much attention. If his score had been above 550 and he got admitted to Beijing Forestry University, it wouldn't have even drawn any notice.
At most, his classmates would have just expressed some envy.
Zhao Yang thought about it for a while and didn't take the matter to heart.
"By the way, Brother Yang, you're planning to go to school in Yanjing, right?"
At this moment, Wang Ming sent another message.
"Yeah, what's up?"
Zhao Yang asked Wang Ming, feeling slightly curious.
"I also want to go to school in Yanjing, and my dad said he can arrange it. What major do you think would be better for me to study at a junior college in Yanjing?"
Looking at the message Wang Ming sent.
Zhao Yang frowned slightly.
Junior college? What major would be better to study?
This actually stumped him.
To be honest, if Wang Ming stuck with him and had no ulterior motives, his future would definitely be limitless, to say the least.
What major to study...
"Study Computer Science!"
Zhao Yang pondered for a moment and sent a message.
"For the next ten-plus years, Computer Science will definitely be a popular major. If you learn this skill, you won't go hungry in the future no matter what!"
"Okay! Thanks, Brother Yang!"
"Yeah, I'm logging off now if there's nothing else."
"Got it!"
Looking at the message Wang Ming sent.
Zhao Yang closed the chat box and then exited QQ.
After taking a look at the sales situation of his two online stores.
Zhao Yang continued doing practice problems.
The college matter was resolved. The starting point for this life was already much, much higher than his previous life.
Being able to go to a 211, if he wanted to conduct experiments or publish papers later on, he would be able to find teachers with real talent and learning to guide him.
As long as he managed to produce a few awesome papers.
He wouldn't need to go out and brag about anything; those 985 universities, or even universities at the level of Tsinghua and Peking University, would definitely extend an olive branch to him!
The platform is very important!
Without a sufficiently high starting platform, the starting point would be very difficult, and it would be even harder to be seen by others.
Zhao Yang understood this very deeply.
Beijing Forestry University was certainly not the best starting point, but it was indeed a very good one.
Not to mention anything else, at an average university, you might not be able to find such comprehensive materials, and borrowing certain papers wouldn't be as easy.
Finding some big shots to endorse you would probably be very difficult; where would an ordinary university get so many big shots?
But a good university is just different!
Teachers capable of teaching at 211-level universities or above rarely just coast through their jobs.
Many of them have real talent and learning.
That is the difference!
Thinking of this, Zhao Yang shook his head and began to earnestly work on practice problems.
At noon.
His parents came back to cook.
While eating, Zhao Yang suddenly spoke up.
"Mom, Dad, I have something to tell you."
Zhao Yang's sudden opening made Father Zhao and Mother Zhao, who were on the side, freeze for a moment. After the two exchanged a glance, their gazes turned toward Zhao Yang.
"What's wrong? Yang Yang, is there something going on?"
Mother Zhao asked curiously.
"I was admitted to Beijing Forestry University."
Zhao Yang said with a smile.
"What??"
Father Zhao was immediately startled, and a hint of confusion flashed in the eyes of Mother Zhao beside him.
She looked at Father Zhao.
"Beijing Forestry University is a good school! It's a 211! And it's not the bottom-tier kind, plus it's in Yanjing! You got admitted? What major??"
Father Zhao was, after all, a college student—and a very valuable college student from over twenty years ago—so he knew a bit about it.
He was very clear about the value of Beijing Forestry University!
"What? 211? Yang Yang got admitted to a 211??"
Although Mother Zhao didn't know Beijing Forestry University, she recognized the 211 label. At this moment, her eyes were filled with joy.
Although he wasn't admitted to a 985, being admitted to a 211 was a joyous occasion for Mother Zhao!
Especially since Zhao Yang had clearly stated that he was unwilling to repeat a year!
At this time, it wasn't that easy to get into a 211!
Let alone a 211 in Yanjing!
Mother Zhao's eyes were full of excitement as she, along with Father Zhao, looked at Zhao Yang.
"I was admitted to the biological sciences major at Beijing Forestry University. Actually, I was just giving it a try."
"For applications to this kind of mid-to-upper tier 211, people with the ability look down on it, while those with slightly less ability think about choosing better majors or applying to better schools as a reach."
"So it's relatively easy to pick up a spot. I just gave it a try, and I didn't expect it to actually work out."
Zhao Yang was, of course, talking nonsense.
But there was no help for it; he couldn't exactly tell his parents that he was a reincarnator who had seen Beijing Forestry University's admission score line in Jiangxi with his own eyes!
"Good, good, good! 211 is good! 211 is great!"
Father Zhao was very gratified.
That noon, he couldn't help but eat a few extra bowls of rice.
As for Mother Zhao, the gloom on her face had completely vanished, and her eyes were full of smiles. Because Zhao Yang had failed the College Entrance Examination these past few days, Mother Zhao had been subjected to plenty of snide remarks from her colleagues at work.
She herself had also been worried sick about Zhao Yang's future.
But today was different!
Although the fact that her son failed the College Entrance Examination couldn't be changed, her son had ultimately gotten into a 211!
And a 211 in Yanjing at that!
Among those colleagues at work, how many of their children could get into a 211?
Thinking of this, Mother Zhao was beaming with pride.
Looking at his happy parents, Zhao Yang felt very warm inside.
Although the fact that he failed the College Entrance Examination couldn't be changed, having been reborn, he had still rewritten part of the ending.
Making his parents happy!
Getting into a 211 was enough to make his parents happy and put their minds at ease!
It wouldn't let them be conflicted in their hearts anymore. Just this alone made the value of his rebirth infinite!
