Chapter 1023 Pies fall from the sky!
When countless American college students were crazy about "Paradise Town" and Li Mu began to prepare for a trip to the United States again, the entire Renmin University campus was also crazy because of a huge joy.
Somehow, just a few days ago, the famous Harvard Business School in the United States suddenly took the initiative to follow the non-famous Renmin University School of Economics, which is not very famous in the world.
Harvard first expressed his hope to establish a friendly college with the School of Economics of the National People's Congress. This request alone surprised the university leaders.
Harvard Business School is the world's number one business school, while Renmin University's School of Economics does not have a world ranking. The gap between them is indeed a bit amazing.
As the boss of business schools, I don’t know how many business schools there are in the world that I have to work with Harvard Business School every year. People’s Congress used to be the one who couldn’t find a way to post it. But I didn’t expect that the pie fell from the sky and Harvard Business School came to me on its own. This was like a dream, and I didn’t even dare to wish for such a beautiful thing in my dream.
This feeling is like Michael Jackson suddenly wants to take the initiative to take the initiative to be like Wang Banbi’s brothers, one is the world’s number one, and the other is the old Yanjing Cannon who can’t stand with the world. Even if the latter is dreaming, he may not be able to create such a plot.
What is even more incredible is that Harvard Business School even took the initiative to propose a very attractive exchange student plan to the National People's Congress, specifically:
Harvard Business School and Renmin University School of Economics each selected eight sophomore students for one-semester exchanges. In terms of specific fees, Harvard’s suggestion is that the school will contribute to the tuition and living allowances for foreign schools to exchange students. That is to say, for the eight students sent to Renmin University, the specific tuition and living expenses of the eight students sent to Harvard will be responsible for Harvard, which is equivalent to the public expenses of all 16 people.
The National People's Congress naturally had no objection to this. The school leaders only thought that after establishing a friendly college with Harvard Business School, they could bring huge boost to the popularity and influence of Renmin University. So for them, let alone asking them to be responsible for the various tuition and miscellaneous fees of the eight exchange students at Harvard, even if they were responsible for the tuition and miscellaneous fees of all exchange students on both sides, and paying Harvard millions, they would be very happy.
Driven by the huge gap in the comprehensive strength and influence of the two colleges, Renmin University accepted all Harvard's suggestions almost unconditionally and interpreted the meaning of the word "efficiency". When young people on Harvard campus were still enthusiastic about "Paradise Town", Renmin University had signed a remote agreement with Harvard and directly entered the selection process.
As soon as the news came out, most of the people were particularly shocked. All the teachers and students in the school went crazy. Even those students who were not within the scope of this exchange were envious of the School of Economics, and all the School of Economics were envious of the sophomore students of this class.
As for the sophomore students in the School of Economics, everyone is basically working hard, hoping to be selected as the only eight exchange students and go to the business temple of Harvard Business School.
For many domestic college students, "international exchange students" is an extremely rare opportunity, especially when being exchanged to Europe and the United States, it not only broadens your horizons and increases your knowledge, but also has the opportunity to practice English language skills in the best environment. More importantly, this kind of exchange student experience will be of great help whether it is the future postgraduate entrance examination, study abroad, or even employment.
This time, countless people were staring at the eight precious exchange seats of the National People's Congress. Not only the outstanding students in the entire School of Economics, but also many wealthy businessmen in the year-end, and the children of officials were also staring at this opportunity. It is said that there are several billionaires' children and descendants of provincial and ministerial officials' families, so that the office threshold of the department chair, the dean of the college and even the president was almost broken.
Su Yingxue happened to be within the selection range of this exchange student, but although she was particularly yearning for it, she had no hope for these eight seats.
On the one hand, when she entered the school, she ranked in the top 50th place in the entire School of Economics. Although she was also very hard at school, she loosened the tight string from the third year of high school after all, so now she ranked in the same level in the overall ranking of more than 70ths. In addition, her family has no strength or background, so it is impossible to compete for such a seat.
However, although Su Yingxue was not hopeful, she was just like other sophomore students in the School of Economics, looking forward to the announcement of the final list and looking forward to a miracle.
It is said that because Harvard has long known the importance of "relationships", "backgrounds" and "backdoors" in China, after signing the contract, the official Harvard Business School put forward a series of special requirements to the National People's Congress on the issue of student selection:
First of all, among the eight exchange students in the National People's Congress, at least five must come from a fair ranking based on grades. These five must be selected among the highest-ranked students. If one of them gives up, the next one will be automatically postponed, but no favoritism or fraud will be allowed, otherwise Harvard has the right to stop cooperation immediately;
Secondly, the dean of the School of Economics of Renmin University has the right to recommend a student; the director of the sophomore year of the School of Economics of Renmin University has the right to recommend a student; and the right to recommend the last quota was unexpectedly handed over to a foreign teacher of the School of Economics of Renmin University.
The top five quotas are required to be ranked according to the grades, openness, transparency, fairness and justice, which is naturally reasonable; the right to recommend to the dean and grade director is based on respect for the NPC. The allocation of these seven quotas reflects Harvard's careful consideration of issues, ensuring at least five outstanding student seats, and to a certain extent take care of China's profound and profound word "relationship".
The last of the eight precious quotas was, according to Harvard's requirements, and the decision-making power was handed over to the foreign teacher who was responsible for teaching Western economics at the National People's Congress.
Harvard's approach to handing over the decision of one of the eight quotas to a foreign teacher who does not hold any leadership position is a bit incredible, but the National People's Congress quickly understood the reason for Harvard's distribution.
The foreign teacher of Renmin University is a Harvard graduate and has always had a close contact with his alma mater. This time, the schools of both sides established a friendly college, and this foreign teacher became the most trusted person of Harvard in the National People's Congress. Therefore, Harvard pointed out that he would give this foreign teacher and Harvard alumnus a place, and the National People's Congress also respected Harvard's requirements very much.
After this distribution rule was exposed, most of the sophomore students in the School of Economics were in despair. It seemed that it was not easy to become this group of Harvard exchange students. Either they had to be in the top five in the grade, or they had a relationship and background at home, and could clear the dean or the grade director, or they could bribe the foreign teacher.
For a moment, students from all walks of life who felt they had a little hope immediately began to show their magical powers. Some people set their sights on the quota of the dean and the grade director, and they had already begun to clear the relationship. Some people set their sights on the quota of the foreign teacher and began to throw sugar-coated shells at the foreign teacher. It is said that a parent offered the foreign teacher one million yuan just to exchange and study for a half-year opportunity for his own child to go to Harvard Business School for exchange and study.
Unlike everyone who is racking their brains to find a solution, once the specific quota allocation principles were announced, Su Yingxue no longer had any hope. Her grades were far from the top five, and it didn't matter. She had no background and no financial resources to clear these relationships, so the eight quotas must have nothing to do with her.
After his mentality returned to calm, Su Yingxue went to school and studied normally as before, no longer expended some effort for this matter. Unexpectedly, after the foreign teacher's Western economics course in this sky, the foreign teacher suddenly called Su Yingxue who was about to leave the classroom and said in English: "Yingxue, can you come to my office later?"
Su Yingxue didn't think much about it. The professor asked herself to go to the office, so she naturally couldn't refuse. So she nodded slightly and replied in English: "Of course, Ms. Simpson."
Jenny Simpson, who was only in his early thirties, smiled slightly and said to her: "Wait for me, and let's go together after I finish packing up."
Su Yingxue nodded slightly, then stood not far from the podium and waited. After Jenny Simpson packed the textbooks, she left the classroom with her and headed straight for her office.
Along the way, many students noticed that Jenny Simpson and Su Yingxue walked side by side. There were rumors for a while, and some people said: "Su Yingxue may have successfully cleared the relationship to Jenny Simpson. Many people are staring at the place in Jenny Simpson's hands. Now it seems that Su Yingxue's."
Some people also questioned: "What is Su Yingxue's background? It seems that she came from a small place, right? Her family situation is generally better. I heard that someone offered Jenny Simpson one million. Why can Su Yingxue get the quota in her hands?"
Some people who were dissatisfied said: "Su Yingxue's grades are not top-notch, right? She doesn't have any outstanding performance in Jenny Simpson's class. If Jenny Simpson really gives her the quota, there must be a shady secret! "
"Hey, why are you having fun? Harvard deliberately left three quotas for secret operation. These three quotas were originally prepared for the shady scenes. Whoever has the right relationship can get them."
"That's my question just now. What's the relationship and strength of Su Yingxue?"
"I don't know if Su Yingxue has it, but don't forget that he is Li Mu's girlfriend. Li Mu is so strong now. Can you still help Su Yingxue with this little thing?"
"Oh, after you said that, I think that it is probably because Li Mu was behind the scenes when Harvard was able to come to our school this time? Otherwise, Harvard would be forced to go to work with our school?"
"Hey, what you said really makes sense!"
"What you said makes sense, but I don't understand one thing."
"What?"
"Look, who doesn't want his girlfriend to stay by his side? You said Li Mu is so good, why should I send Su Yingxue abroad? With his ability, Su Yingxue doesn't need to use this kind of experience of "exchange students" to gilt, right?"
