I had a Russian home-cooked dinner with this old man whose name I didn't even know. After the old man made an appointment with Wei Ran to pick up clothes, he stood at the door of the store and watched him and Teacher Dalia get into the car and drive away.
, then he finally waved and returned to the dilapidated and old store.
When the car started running, Wei Ran, who had been holding back his curiosity, was about to speak, but Teacher Dalia explained first.
"When you return to Hongqi Forest Farm, you and Culp will focus on etiquette lessons." Teacher Dalia paused and put on a pair of steam goggles again, "Victor, you have to start paying attention to your image from now on."
Wei Ran, who was in charge of driving, patted the steering wheel and said, "It sounds very tired."
"It'll be fine once you get used to it."
Teacher Dalia lowered her seat, changed the subject and asked, "When are you going to complete the assessment that was postponed in the summer? There is not long left before the limited time."
"It's done," Wei Ran replied with a smile, "The criminal evidence of the Japanese smuggling gang is in my bag."
"When was it completed?" Teacher Dalia asked in surprise.
“It was only recently investigated clearly”
Hearing this, Teacher Dalia asked with great interest, "Tell me, what have you found?"
"There are many, so let's start with the target person I was given."
Wei Ran paused, slightly increased the speed of the car, and briefly summarized the various information that Katianka had investigated for him.
“Sounds very comprehensive”
Dalia gave a seemingly satisfactory evaluation, "I will take a closer look after arriving at the Hongqi Forest Farm. What about English? How is your English learning going?"
"There's not much progress." Wei Ran secretly glanced at Teacher Dalia, who was wearing a steam goggle, and said in a regretful tone, "My time is too tight and I can't spare much time to learn a new language."
"In that case, let's extend the course from half a month to a month next time. Is there any problem with your time?" Teacher Dalia asked abruptly.
"Are we going to extend the course again?"
"You will have a holiday starting in January. In addition to the New Year holiday and Christmas, there is also your Chinese New Year. So just like last year, you will come back to class in March. In the meantime, as long as you remember to rush to Moscow on February 20 to receive a
Just an exclusive interview.”
I secretly calculated the time and figured out that although the Lunar New Year has just passed on February 20th, it would be nothing more than a hard trip, so it wouldn't be a waste.
Thinking of this, he simply agreed happily. Taking an extra half month or missing half a month of classes was actually not a big deal for both parties, but since Dalia arranged it like this, it was probably another matter.
What kind of work is going on?
Secretly tightening his grip, Wei Ran changed the subject and asked, "What's the situation at Jima now?"
"The filming of that movie has already started"
Teacher Dalia responded slowly, "It is estimated that the filming will not end until March, so he will not accompany you in the following classes."
“What a lucky guy”
"He's really lucky"
Teacher Dalia seemed to have thought of something, and said with great interest, "When he finishes filming that movie, he might become a slightly famous actor, and our Time Film Studio can also prepare it by then.
Filming that movie about the North African battlefield."
Wei Ran glanced at Teacher Dalia in the passenger seat in surprise, "So fast? Are you sure everything is done?"
"It's OK"
Teacher Dalia simply took off the steam goggles and said seriously, "The filming location was selected in Egypt, with Jima as the starring role."
"Go to Egypt to shoot?" Wei Ran thought about it and felt relieved. It was obviously unrealistic to shoot in the messy Libya, and neighboring Egypt was relatively safer.
"Where are the other characters?" Wei Ran asked.
"You will know then"
Teacher Dalia gave it up and asked instead, "Let's talk about you. In September next year, you will probably graduate from the Hongqi Forestry Farm. What are you going to do in the future? As I said at the time, go to
Be a war photographer?”
"Wait a minute, I will graduate next year? Didn't it say three years?" Wei Ran asked in surprise, but ignored the following question.
"Originally it did take three years, but the speed you learned German and medical skills far exceeded our expectations, which saved you a lot of time."
Dalia did not hide the approval in her tone at this time, "In the remaining few months, your focus will be on etiquette courses and some theoretical courses. In addition, you should also prepare your
graduation thesis.”
"And the graduation thesis?" Wei Ran's eyelids twitched. How to write this thesis? On the practical application of the cold knowledge of Qi KGB in daily life?
"It is Kazan Federal University that issues your diploma, so of course you have to write a thesis."
Teacher Dalia said matter-of-factly, "Of course, you can also choose to give up the history graduate certificate of Kazan University. The choice is yours. In addition, although you can graduate next year, the third year
Remember to prepare the tuition fee. It is your business to learn quickly, and the tuition fee cannot be less."
"I will definitely not give up the certificate, and I will also pay the tuition fees."
Wei Ran shook his head dumbfounded. Of course he could tell that the second half of Teacher Dalia's sentence was obviously a joke, but he didn't really intend to take it as a joke.
More than a year passed in a hurry, and I was so busy every day that I hit the back of my head with almost no real rest, but the changes it brought were obvious.
Although it is difficult to say whether the learning experience at Hongqi Forest Farm has brought more advantages than disadvantages or disadvantages, it is undeniable that at least several times, I relied on what I learned to survive on the battlefields of World War II.
of.
Comparing all these with the tuition fees of Hongqi Forest Farm, the latter is really a friendly price.
"So what do you plan to do after graduation?" Teacher Dalia asked with a smile, "War photographer?"
Wei Ran shook his head, "My current status is pretty good, at least it's much safer than on the battlefield, isn't it?"
Teacher Dalia nodded imperceptibly and put on the steam goggles she had been holding in her hand again, "Let's go to the airport. We will have classes at the forest farm. If we finish this month's courses early, we can have an early vacation."
"No problem" Weiran increased his speed again and drove to the airport.
The two took the flight that night and arrived in Kazan smoothly. When they returned to the Hongqi Forest Farm, Wei Ran also jumped into the cold swimming pool under the persuasion of the submachine gun waved in Culp's hand.
When he was dodging the rubber bullets chasing after him and flopping desperately in the ice-covered swimming pool, life seemed to return to its usual dull and fulfilling state in an instant.
For a whole month after that, Wei Ran, who was studying alone at the Hongqi Forest Farm, lived an increasingly regular life. In addition to the daily physical training and the psychological tests led by Gorman, the morning time was devoted to more and more rigorous training.
I attended etiquette classes, and in the afternoon until before going to bed, I was filled to the brim with all kinds of theoretical knowledge.
Although I had already learned these two courses last year, the level of rigor was exponentially higher.
Not to mention anything else, the so-called posture training in the etiquette course involves how to use the gait when walking and the intonation and tone of speech to give yourself different identities and different moods.
Policemen, active military personnel, businessmen, lawyers, doctors, even scumbags who have just had an affair, people who are in trouble in life, people who are weak, etc. What are their walking habits, speaking habits, and their eyes?
What kind of habits do you have?
These little details that Wei Ran had never noticed before were all clearly arranged by Gorman and Culp, two perverts, under the guise of so-called etiquette courses.
If this so-called etiquette course is physical torture, then the afternoon theoretical course is completely psychological torture.
Those theoretical courses that Wei Ran thought he had learned well before were also increasing in difficulty like skipping a grade. Although the teaching speed was considered steady, almost every day, he had to stay up late for at least an hour or two before going to bed so as not to fail in the second semester.
During the day, you were punished for not being able to answer the correct answer.
It's hard to say whether this learning method, which is more cramming than cramming, is good or bad, but it is undeniable that the learning progress does soar quickly.
While he was forgetting about food and sleep every day, Jima, who was far away in Finland, had also devoted all his energy to film shooting.
Also busy are the two camps far away in Inta. Although Jima has switched jobs to make movies, Alili and Misha have not been idle. In fact, since the last time Suisui brought her captive fat sheep here,
After drinking the first soup, Suisui's mother, Zhou Shujin, learned that her daughter might be responsible for the two camps in the future. She seemed to take special care of them, or deliberately made things difficult, and sent waves after waves of them based on the cost-effectiveness.
Tourists have repeatedly challenged the capacity limits of these two campsites.
However, precisely because of this, Alili and Misha, who were extremely busy every day, became more determined to recruit Suisui to join the team as soon as possible.
Just like Wei Ran, who is driven crazy by various courses every day, Suisui, who is far away in China, is now making various preparations for the exams at the end of the year. At the same time, this girl who thinks about slaughtering fat sheep every day has also begun to win over some of the same people.
Students studying abroad in China are making a somewhat naive plan to make a lot of money and slaughter big sheep in the future.
Even Katenka, who is far away in Turin, Italy, is like a squirrel building a nest for the winter. She locks herself in the house she recently bought and assembles the surveillance cameras one by one herself.
Computers and even various dangerous gadgets for self-destruction are placed in every secret corner.
In the last month of this year, it seems that all young people who have anything to do with Weiran have become extremely busy and fulfilled.
