After arriving home, Su Ho said while changing his shoes: "By the way, don't forget to go to the welcome party tonight."
After hearing what Su Ho said, Su Xiaomu remembered the official reception process of MIT.
As early as South China Institute of Technology confirmed that it would have exchange and study opportunities with MIT this academic year, these reception and other details were made public.
Around this time every year, MIT has many exchange students from all over the world.
These also include unknown universities in the United States.
Therefore, this year, South China University of Technology started the exchange study of the British Innovation Class ahead of schedule, which has a certain relationship with this.
after all……
In lists such as the World University Rankings, South China University of Technology and MIT, which has been in the top three for a long time, are not at the same level in terms of impact factors.
Su Xiaomu scratched his head and frowned: "It seems that this welcome party is in the form of a dance?"
"Is there any special reminder that formal attire is required?"
Su Ho nodded: "The clothes are in the first set of the wardrobe on the left side of the cloakroom."
Su Xiaomu: "..."
What else is there to say?
"Then what...did the plane circle around and we returned to China?"
As soon as Su Xiaomu finished speaking, Su Ho and Wan Dai both laughed.
"When we leave tomorrow night, you will cry!"
"It flew around in a circle and came back! Thank you for thinking about it!"
Su Xiaomu: "..."
At about 4:30 in the afternoon, Su Xiaomu received a call from Yi Ran.
What Yi Ran wants to talk about is the welcome party in the evening.
Afraid that Su Xiaomu would forget, he specifically explained the rules of the party.
Such as time, place, dress, etiquette.
Su Xiaomu would abide by these basic rules and etiquette when visiting foreign countries even if he had never seen them before.
China is a country of etiquette!
Speaking of which, the quality performance of Chinese people abroad is pretty good, but at home... I think everyone is one of my own, so I don't pay that much attention.
After agreeing on a place and time to meet at MIT, Yi Ran hung up the phone...
In half an afternoon, He Li appeared twice.
They all report on the progress of some arranged matters.
For example, Su Xiaomu chose Volvo after a brief discussion between Su Ho and Wan Dai when driving in the United States.
It's an S60, which normally sells for $34,000 in the United States.
But this one has a 0 added.
Anyway, from the appearance point of view, it is no different from a normal s60.
Just like Phaeton, there seems to be no difference between it and Magotan.
By the way, I also brought over Su Xiaomu’s driver’s license that is valid in Massachusetts and even the United States.
When He Li came here for the second time, she brought a Chinese aunt and two chefs. One was a native Chinese who came to the United States on a business trip.
The other is that I don’t know which country is good at Western-style meals.
After these things were arranged, Su Ho said: "Tomorrow, He He and I will check to see if there are any discrepancies, and then arrange them. All daily necessities will be what you are used to before."
"The other thing is to go out and walk around together tomorrow to get familiar with the life here, travel, etc."
Su Xiaomu nodded: "If nothing else, you can't use domestic maps for navigation here."
"Of course." Wan Dai laughed.
…………
…………
Time flies and it is 5:30 in the afternoon.
Su Xiaomu put on the formal suit prepared by Su Ho.
There is nothing special from the inside out, black business formal leather shoes, black trousers, black suit, white formal shirt, and a slightly different and elaborate tie.
This time we changed a car. I don’t know if the driver was changed, but He Li followed.
It is a Cadillac whose brand is not as high-profile as Rolls-Royce or Bentley, but is also not high-profile in the United States.
certainly……
It is the administrative version.
At 5:50, Su Xiaomu arrived at the entrance of MIT's Kleissig Stadium in advance smoothly.
MIT covers a large area. It covers an entire area along the Charles River from the Longfro Bridge in downtown Boston to the Boston University Bridge, which is 1,000 acres!
Therefore, there are also a large number of driving areas inside the college.
Fortunately, Su Xiaomu was not going to the farthest area near the University Bridge in Boston.
"Classmate Su Xiaomu, this way."
Su Xiaomu heard Yi Ran's voice as soon as he got off the car.
The recognition of Chinese characters is magnified to the extreme here.
Su Xiaomu easily followed the source of the sound and quickly found Yi Ran and Chen Jiming among a group of white people and a few black people.
This is not a very complicated thing.
In comparison, Su Xiaomu, Yi Ran, and Chen Jiming at this time are out-and-out foreigners.
Because of the difference in skin color, hair color, etc., the identity can be easily identified.
"Sorry, I'm late."
Su Xiaomu showed a little apology, even though the agreed time was six o'clock.
Also because he was abroad, Su Xiaomu had one more word of concern.
"Did you have a good rest today?"
Yi Ran smiled and replied: "Very good. Thank you for arranging an apartment for us. I have asked about it and it is much better than the student apartment arranged by MIT."
Su Xiaomu nodded lightly and said: "There are not many opportunities for our school to come to MIT for exchange and study. Being able to have better living conditions will save a lot of worries about life, which will be of great help to the efficiency of learning.
.”
Then he said: "It's getting late, let's go in first."
Yi Ran and Chen Jiming both nodded and followed Su Xiaomu, as a matter of course.
It seems that whenever there is such an external moment, Su Xiaomu can always naturally become the team leader.
Following the few welcome signs printed in both Chinese and English, Su Xiaomu and his entourage walked into the gymnasium following the flow of people.
MIT students have already set up the scene.
There are such welcoming activities once or twice every year, so it is difficult to have a messy scene again.
Nothing but familiarity with your hands.
This is a reflection of the qualities that an international institution of higher learning should have.
Su Xiaomu had only taken a few steps when someone called out to him.
is Chinese.
"Hey, Su Xiaomu!"
The man's voice was a little excited.
She has long, flowing hair.
Su Xiaomu looked back and raised his eyebrows slightly, but he was somewhat prepared for this person's appearance.
"Hello."
Liu Yang, a Chinese with long hair studying abroad, said enthusiastically: "Hello, my name is Liu Yang, an international student. We met on icpc. We are next door to you. Your algorithm level is really disappointing.
!”
Su Xiaomu smiled and said, "Well, what I remember is that you are the team whose eyes are red."
Liu Yang: "..."
Can I say something that is already very popular in China?
Following Liu Yang were kevinsun and allenliu from MIT who participated in the 2018 icpc global finals...
ps: Starting from tomorrow, a chapter will be updated regularly at 8pm every day. If not, there is no need to wait.
In addition, I just want to update this story properly. There are only more than 2,000 high-quality articles in the starting point. This one can be considered a high-quality article. In fact, it is really not bad...
