Chapter 137: Getting married after graduating from college?
"One hundred million...eighty-nine thousand five hundred?"
Looking at the numbers on the text message reminder, Liu Jiaxin thought she was dazzled, so she couldn't help rubbing her eyes with her hands, and counted them carefully several times. After confirming that she had counted correctly, she raised her head with a confused expression and used
Xingyan looked at Xu Chuan.
"This this........"
Seeing the cute expression on his senior sister's face, Xu Chuan couldn't help but smile, handed back the bank card in his hand, and said: "The total bonus for this tungsten diselenide project is 170,000 yuan.
Nine thousand, if you take half of it, it will be eighty-nine thousand, five hundred."
"Then... no, that... no, didn't you say before that the bonus wasn't that big?" Liu Jiaxin asked anxiously, stuttering.
When she first heard that the bonus was not that big, she thought it was only one or two thousand yuan. How come it suddenly became hundreds of thousands?
"Is it much?"
Xu Chuan took a sip of the drink and continued: "My mentor's tungsten diselenide project will create a market worth billions upon successful completion, and relying on this project, he can earn millions or even tens of millions."
bonuses, in addition to various incomes such as patents, which are worth seven or eight figures every year."
"In comparison, do you still think a bonus of more than 100,000 yuan is much?"
Hearing this, Liu Jiaxin opened her mouth and looked at Xu Chuan in disbelief. With a market worth billions and an income of tens of millions, she actually participated in such a scientific research project?
Shaking his head, Xu Chuan took this opportunity and said: "You have to know that the most profitable thing in the world is always the realization of knowledge, which relies on the brain, not cheap labor."
Hearing this, Liu Jiaxin's fair cheeks turned red, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.
Seeing this, Xu Chuan changed the topic: "Of course, I'm not saying that part-time work like cleaning tables is not good. It's normal for people to have difficulties. I used to work part-time too, but what should I say?"
After pondering for a moment, he continued: "I'm just saying that doing this kind of part-time job, or working after graduating from college, don't you think it's too cheap and wasteful compared to the knowledge you have in your mind?"
"I know your financial situation is not very good and you may be short of money, but I don't want you to give up your studies because of your current predicament."
"You have the ability and talent to go further on the academic road. I hope you read a lot of books, walk long distances, stand at a higher place, and see unprecedented scenery."
"By the way, I remember that you got bonuses and grants. It should be about ten to twenty thousand yuan every year, right? These should be enough for you to go to college?"
Halfway through, Xu Chuan suddenly asked curiously. He knew that this senior had scholarships and grants. Although ten or twenty thousand yuan was not much, it was definitely enough to support her going to college.
The annual tuition fee for the Mathematics Department of NTU is RMB 6,000. Poor students can also apply for free tuition. This senior’s tuition must have been reduced.
Eating and other things, given this senior's personality, probably wouldn't cost much. As for girls spending a lot of money on makeup, he glanced at Liu Jiaxin, not to mention makeup, not even lipstick, so that aspect was ruled out.
"I also have a younger sister who just graduated from high school." Liu Jiaxin whispered.
"Shouldn't your sister's study be your parents' business?" Xu Chuan asked.
Liu Jiaxin shook her head: "They passed away a few years ago."
Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Sorry."
No wonder she still has to work part-time in the school cafeteria every night despite receiving generous scholarships and grants; no wonder she has such a great talent and has no idea of taking the postgraduate entrance examination to further her studies. It turns out that the burden of the entire family falls on her.
And under such circumstances, it is really rare to be able to stand out and win first place in the extremely competitive National College Student Modeling Contest, or even the All-American College Student Modeling Contest.
Whether it is talent, hard work, or the courage and tenacity to face all difficulties silently, everyone can appreciate and admire them.
Although poverty makes people sympathize, the hard-working life of poverty makes people even more awe-inspiring.
........
The senior sister treated her to a meal, and Xu Chuan also returned to school and found his tutor Chen Zhengping to go through the enrollment procedures.
That's right, it's the admission procedure.
Just because he has graduated from NTU does not mean that he has left NTU.
When he was first admitted, NTU signed a direct doctoral training program with him, and there was no master's degree program. In other words, he would study for a doctoral degree directly after graduating from his undergraduate degree, and he would not be fully graduated until he completed his doctoral studies at NTU.
As for studying abroad, it has nothing to do with it.
He received his doctoral diploma from Princeton, which is also recognized by Nanjing University. When the time comes, remember to come back to hold a replacement graduation ceremony and issue the certificate.
Xu Chuan is not worried that he will not be able to graduate from Princeton. His current achievements in mathematics are enough to serve as a professor at Princeton.
But after graduating from college, I still have to leave some thoughts behind.
He found his tutor, then went to the logistics office to get a bachelor's degree uniform, and ran around to visit various attractions in the school.
This was probably the first and last time in his life that he would check in like this. Although there would be graduate and doctoral students in the future, he guessed that he would not do it again.
As for the person who took the photos, Xu Chuan originally wanted to find a senior or younger sister in the class to help. After all, girls generally have better photography skills.
As a result, after his senior brother Fan Pengyue heard about this incident, he volunteered to help.
When it comes to things like taking graduation photos, Master Xiong patted his chest and said that he is the best at it.
After all, he graduated with a Ph.D. this year. From master's degree to Ph.D., he stayed at NTU for a total of seven years, sending off successive generations of college students. He knows exactly where, what posture, and what angle to use to take the best-looking graduation photos.
.
Xu Chuan thought for a while and agreed.
Although Master Xiong is a tall and thick man, he is really good at taking photos and has taken him to visit many scenic spots.
This high-profile effort naturally attracted many students from Nanjing University.
After seeing that he was taking graduation photos, the seniors and seniors of NTU, no, I should say juniors, came over one after another, took photos together, and asked for autographs.
Some people took pictures with their mobile phones, and without even editing the pictures, they just threw their scarves away and, almost, they went to the circle of friends.
"Holy shit, is this the God of Sichuan?"
"Kawagami has finally graduated."
"It's so scary. As a scumbag in the same class, I'm still having a headache with calculus, but the master has already graduated."
"I feel completely calm, and I even feel like crying."
"Hahahahahahaha, look up to the sky and laugh three times. This big boss finally stopped worrying about us college students. Now it is the turn of the graduate students to tremble."
"The graduate student said it doesn't matter. Anyway, this big guy has a direct degree and is not a graduate student at all."
"Gan, I'm studying for a PhD in applied mathematics. I'm under a lot of pressure. I hope my graduation thesis won't be canceled directly like Mr. Cai."
"Laughing to death."
"Cai Peng:......"
.......
After the photo was taken, Xu Chuan clicked on Weiwei, opened "Love each other as a family", and sent his graduation photo to the group.
Soon, the group became lively.
Uncle: "Is Chuan'er taking an artistic photo?"
Cousin: "Dad, are you a little knowledgeable? This is a graduation photo, a college graduation photo!"
Uncle: "How do I know? You didn't show it to me."
Auntie: "Your cousin graduated from college in one year. You didn't even get into college. It's embarrassing."
Cousin: "......"
Third Uncle: "Nephew Chuan has graduated from college? But I remember, didn't you just go to college last year?"
Xu Chuan: "Well, I graduated early."
Third Uncle: "Are you going to work so early? Have you found a place to work? How about Third Uncle, let me introduce you to one?"
Xu Chuan: "......"
Just when I was about to answer that I wanted to continue studying and not be in a hurry to find a job, a call came on my phone. It was a prestige video call. It was from my father.
Xu Chuan connected to the video, and Xu's father's head was reflected on the phone screen. His hair was covered with cement dust and gray, and behind him was a new house under construction in his hometown.
"Hey, Chuan'er, what does the photo you posted in the group mean?"
The familiar rough voice made Xu Chuan couldn't help but smile.
"Dad, I graduated from college. That is the bachelor's uniform that all graduating students wear. I took a photo for you to see."
"Oh, but aren't you just a freshman? Don't you have to study for four years in college?" Xu's father asked doubtfully.
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "I graduated early. Because I proved a mathematical conjecture and earned all the credits, I graduated from college early and will go on to study for a Ph.D."
"That doesn't have any impact on you, right?" Xu's father asked hesitantly.
He didn't understand what Xu Chuan said, nor did he understand what mathematical conjectures and credits were, but he was concerned about whether graduating early would have an impact on Xu Chuan.
"It won't affect me. I'll go back in two days." Xu Chuan said with a smile. He was about to go abroad to study at Princeton, but he might only come back once or twice a year. While he was still in China, he wanted to go home more often.
have a look.
"Yeah, okay, be careful on the road. I'll ask your mother to kill two chickens and ducks and make you your favorite stir-fried duck meat."
Hearing that Xu Chuan was coming back, Xu's father had a smile on his face.
From the side, a big head squeezed over and glanced at the camera. It was Xu Siji, a bricklayer from the same village.
"Hey, it's Xu Chuan, when will you be back?"
Xu Chuan smiled and said hello: "Hello, Uncle Si Si, I'll be back in two days."
Uncle Siji from the same village was stunned for a moment, and said with a hearty smile: "Okay, remember to bring a girlfriend back. You can find a girlfriend now that you are in college."
Xu Chuan was embarrassed and said: "It's still early, Uncle Si Si, I haven't reached the legal age for marriage yet."
Xu Siji smiled and said: "It's too late to wait until the marriage age to talk about it. You are now eighteen and have been in college for four years. It's almost enough to find a girlfriend and talk about going to college. You can get married after you graduate from college. My friend's child is a college student.
I got married right after graduation, and now my child is over two years old, so you can do it too."
Xu Chuan:..........
To be honest, I have graduated from college now.
So I really can’t get married after graduating from college because the country doesn’t allow it.
.........
Ps: Reporting status, good news, my body temperature is stable, my energy has recovered a lot, and there are no more two lines in the antigen test, but my throat still hurts, so I took some throat lozenges and medicine.
Illness comes like a mountain, and goes away like a thread. It will definitely take time to fully recover. I hope everyone will pay attention. It is really uncomfortable to be infected.
There should be another chapter in the evening. I will try to resume the second update. If I owe the leader of the alliance and all the bosses for the reward, I may have to wait for two more days.
