Chapter 56 Time flies

Everyone reunited and sat around the cave dwelling of the Educated Youth Point. Thinking about the past, they were very emotional. Shen Long once again told them not to give up studying, maybe the opportunity will come soon.

While teaching, I also took time out to visit Zheng Tong and Jiang Biyun with Qin Ling. They have now become teachers in a local school and their lives are much better than before. Shen Long brought them some books. Let them both borrow books to pass the boring time.

In the following years, Shen Long would return to Baidian Village every summer to teach local children about the outside world, and at the same time urge Jiang Shaoan and Hu Jianjun to study hard.

When the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, almost all the educated youth in Baidian Village signed up. Li Kuiyuan, Li Kuiyang, Li Kuiying, Li Dani, and Li Erni also returned to the capital from all over the country to prepare for the exam.

Before the exam, Shen Long specially wrote to Jiang Shaoan. Zheng Tong and the others gave them some instructions, and then asked for leave to stay at home to do the final sprint training for these younger brothers and sisters. During this period, he mixed some college entrance examination questions into the sample questions and explained them to them. .

The hard work was not in vain. When the exam started, Jiang Shaoan, Hu Jianjun and Li Dani were surprised to find that many of the questions on the test paper looked familiar. Many of the types of questions had been seen in the "Self-study Textbook of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry". At most, they had been changed. It's just some data, and they can answer it very easily.

The exam results were announced. Five of the eight educated youths from Baidian Village, except Shen Long and Qin Ling, passed the exam. Zheng Tong was admitted to the History Department of Yenching University, Jiang Biyun was admitted to Beijing Normal University, and three of the five Li family brothers and sisters were admitted to the exam. , Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang have wasted too much in recent years, and they do not like studying, so they failed to pass the exam; this ratio is already surprising in this era.

You must know that this year, 5.7 million people across the country signed up for the college entrance examination, and only 270,000 people were finally admitted, with an admission rate of only 4.7%. In 2018, when Shen Long traveled through time, the national average admission rate exceeded Eighty percent...the difficulty can be imagined.

When the notice came out, Nanheng Street was buzzing with excitement. Everyone, whether they knew each other or not, rushed to Li's house to congratulate them. Some of them felt that their faces would be bright because their neighbors were admitted to college, and some of them wanted to come and establish a relationship in advance so that they might be able to use it in the future. , and more importantly, I want to ask them if they have any exam secrets.

Li Kuiyong's mother burst into tears while looking at the letters of admission. She knew that with these, her children would be able to get the country's iron rice bowl, and it would also be extremely prestigious jobs, and the Li family could finally turn around. .

But when she thought about Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang not being admitted to college, she began to regret why she didn't discipline them harshly in the first place. Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang also drooped their heads, feeling that their faces were disgraced.

"Don't worry, you two, study at home for another year and try to see if you can pass the exam next year!" Shen Long comforted him. There was only half a year between the 1977 college entrance examination and the 1978 college entrance examination. They both still had a chance. If they waited until 1979 In 2016, other candidates had sufficient time to prepare, so the two of them had little chance of passing the exam.

Shen Long could give them the test questions and ask them to memorize them, but these two guys have become a lot of friends over the years. It would be bad if they brag in the future or even leak the questions before the test out of brotherly loyalty. Yes, you will go to jail; and if you don't study hard, you may be expelled even if you get in.

Also, in the future, policies will become more and more open. Even if you can't get into college, it doesn't mean there is no way out.

After school started, Li Kuiying, Li Dani and Li Erni went to school happily. The three of them were all in schools in the capital and could be seen often.

At this time, Shen Long and Qin Ling both became teachers at their respective universities. Shen Long taught in the Computer Department of Shuimu University, and Qin Ling worked as a violin teacher at the Central Conservatory of Music, taking professional courses such as vocal music by the way. In 1977, the May 7th University of the Arts was withdrawn. , each school has restored its original name.

The 1978 college entrance examination has begun, and those who failed to pass the exam in Baidian Village successfully entered the university. Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang failed again, but the hard study in the past six months has severely polished their temperament, and both of them have become more stable. There are many things that were not suitable for them before and can be left to them.

After making a plan, he didn't start taking action immediately. It took Shen Long almost another year to teach them cooking skills. The two of them were not very good at taking cultural courses, but their hands-on ability was extraordinary and they were willing to work hard.

By 1979, the two of them had already mastered their cooking skills. At this time, the famous economist Xue Muqiao proposed that young people returning to the city should be encouraged to find their own jobs and restore snack bars, small stalls, etc.; this view It was quickly recognized and a pilot project was launched in Beijing.

The skills that Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang had worked so hard to cultivate finally came into use. Shen Long helped them build a store, go through the procedures, and the snack bar opened smoothly.

Customers were full of praise for the craftsmanship taught by Shen Long, and the snack bar was packed every day. After the first month was over, everyone closed the door to take stock. Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang were dumbfounded by the profit amount. They did not expect that they could actually do it. Make so much money...

"How much is this? The policy is still a bit tight in the past two years, so you should continue to open a good store. There will be many opportunities to really make big money in two years; by the way, you can learn Japanese well in these two years." The real meaning of having children is not how much money they can make, but that the two brothers can finally get rid of their embarrassment.

Two more years later, in 1981, Shen Long asked Li Kuiyuan and Li Kuiyang to win the overseas sales rights of Zhangguang 101 Hair Regrowth Essence, and introduced this product to Japan, which was a great success. After the war, the Japanese were under pressure from work The hair loss situation was very serious. Zhangguang 101 just met the market demand and soon became a household name. In the following years, this product made them a lot of money. Li Kuiyuan was even received by Japanese Prime Minister Toshiki Kaifu. caught the limelight.

This was originally an opportunity for China's first millionaire Li Xiaohua, but now it was snatched away by Li Kuiyuan.

At this time, Shen Long had already completed his Ph.D. and became the backbone of the Department of Computer Science at Shuimu University. Not only did he lead the team to make repeated breakthroughs to fill the gaps in the country, he also published many articles in foreign journals and won unanimous praise from the international computer community.

On this day, he and Qin Ling packed up and prepared to go to the Louvre Museum collection exhibition. They were both rich now, but due to policy reasons, it was still difficult to go abroad privately, and there were not many opportunities to appreciate foreign works of art. .
