During the Mid-Autumn Festival, when schools were closed, there were quite a lot of people at the racecourse.
Wei Cheng went to work, cleaning the stables, and unexpectedly met his classmate Li Wei Jin.
Li Weijin is not only famous in their three classes of information management, but probably in the entire computer department. He is really handsome and is said to be very rich.
Wei Cheng heard from her deskmate Yunshu that Li Weijin's family was much richer than hers and they were not on the same level.
Wei Cheng couldn't imagine it anymore. In her opinion, her deskmate Yunshu's family was already well off. After all, her deskmate's skin care products were super expensive, and her casual schoolbag actually cost tens of thousands of yuan. Moreover, her deskmate bought flowers that were of no great use every day, and the money she spent on flowers was enough for her living expenses for a month. However, her deskmate actually said that her family could not be compared with Li Weijin's.
When she saw Li Weijin, Wei Cheng didn't know whether she should say hello, after all, they were classmates. But she also felt that Li Weijin might not know her at all, and it would be awkward to say hello.
Although they are in the same class, it is a large class with more than 70 students in each class. It is normal that students have never talked to each other.
Wei Cheng can be said to be tall and strong in appearance, but he is extremely shy and inferior in his heart. He is more relaxed with people he is familiar with, so after hesitating for a while, he decisively decided not to say hello and avoid embarrassment.
As she was shoveling the waste from the stable onto the cart, Li Weijin actually came up to her and spoke to her...
"Wei Cheng, why didn't your roommate Su Xiaoqi come?" Li Wei Jin asked.
"Xiao Qi is participating in the Top Ten Singer competition tonight and has to go to rehearsal this afternoon." Wei Cheng answered obediently before he suddenly remembered, damn... Li Wei Jin actually knew my name? He even asked Xiao Qi?
After asking, Li Weijin turned around and left.
Wei Cheng is still confused...
What does this mean, sir?
After a lot of thought, I finally thought that Li Weijin was a class committee member, and Xiaoqi was also a class committee member. Did they have a class committee meeting during the Mid-Autumn Festival?
This is the only explanation.
Wei Cheng didn't think about it anymore and hurried to work. Uncle Yu said he would leave work early today to go to his daughter's house to celebrate the holiday, so she also wanted to finish her work early and go see Xiao Qi sing in the evening.
When Xiaoqi arrived at the gymnasium, many people were already there, and overall it was busy but orderly.
Maybe it’s because the school doesn’t have much else to offer but it has a lot of students, so the human resources are sufficient and the arrangements are quite good.
Each contestant is assigned a member of the music club as an assistant to be ready to deal with any emergencies at any time.
Xiao Qi's assistant was a thin, quiet man. He walked up and introduced himself: "I'm a freshman majoring in finance this year. My last name is Wu. You can just call me Xiao Wu."
Seeing the slightly shy boy in front of her, Xiao Qi suddenly thought of the intern who came to pick her up at Lushan TV Station.
I feel that school is actually a bit similar to society. Sometimes I feel that joining clubs is a waste of time, but it may not be the case. It can be regarded as an early experience of future social life, just like an internship in a small society in advance.
If the boy in front of me becomes an intern at a TV station or does related work in the future, he will probably be much more relaxed than he is now.
There were a total of twenty contestants, and they all arrived on time. Even Xiaoqi's calculus teacher Lu Ruxue showed up. She looked very energetic, with her white hair blown in the wind. Xiaoqi went up to greet them.
"Hello, Teacher Lu. I'm Su Xiaoqi from Class 1 of Information Management."
Lu Ruxue smiled and nodded, "I know you. I saw the clip of you singing. Your voice is very good and you sang very well. Do your best."
"The teacher's bel canto singing is very good, and I feel a lot of pressure." Xiaoqi also laughed.
"At my age, I just like to join in the fun. I don't need to feel pressured." After saying this, Teacher Lu took Xiaoqi's hand and introduced another contestant.
He turned out to be a foreign old man with a thick beard that was combed neatly and his hair was very thick, but he was wearing a tuxedo and looked very gentlemanly.
"This is Galen. He likes Chinese very much. His Chinese name is Fulu. He sings very well too."
Galen's Chinese is indeed good. Apart from the greetings "Hello" and "You are so beautiful", I can barely understand a few sentences. Of course, his English is even smoother.
Xiaoqi communicated with the other party in English.
I praised him for his excellent Chinese and language skills, as Chinese is difficult to learn.
After communicating with Grace from the English corner and Betty, the oral English teacher, Xiaoqi fully realized that the way foreigners chat is actually not like what we learned in high school, that is, talking about the weather and actually praising each other would be better and they would be happier.
And you have to be honest and straightforward, without beating around the bush, because even if you beat around the bush for a long time, they may not understand what you mean.
Galen even exaggeratedly praised Xiaoqi's English and nice accent. He said he was from Australia and liked Xiaoqi's accent very much.
I didn't expect that Mr. Lu's English was so good despite his age. The three of us chatted in English smoothly and had a great time.
However, Ms. Lu said that her best language is Russian, but she rarely uses it now.
Learning Russian was popular in their time, and she even went to study in Moscow. Nowadays, learning English is popular.
Xiaoqi found that Teacher Lu paid great attention to grammar in English, which was probably due to his learning experience.
On the contrary, many of Galen's English sentences do not follow strict grammar. If Galen were to take the CET-4 or CET-6 in China, I wonder if he could pass.
Teacher Lu is very knowledgeable, humorous and talkative. It is a pleasure to talk to him.
Galen is also in his fifties and looks very strong.
Xiao Qi asked him why he came to Enhua.
Galen said, "I used to work as a zookeeper at a zoo in Australia. Later, I saw the Chinese pandas and they were so cute that I wanted to come to China to raise pandas. But after I resigned and came to China, I found that the requirements for panda keepers were very high. In the end, I could only come to be your teacher..."
Xiao Qi: ...
Xiao Qi didn't know whether the last sentence was a mockery or a joke, and he reluctantly understood his humor. After all, there are very few Chinese people who can be treated like pandas.
Xiaoqi was chatting and laughing with two teachers, and Wu Xinyue from the English major also arrived. It is generally believed in the school that students from the English major have better English. After all, students from other majors only need to take CET-4 and CET-6, while students from the English major have to take CET-4 and CET-8, which are much more difficult than CET-4 and CET-6.
However, the actual level of first-year English majors is similar to that of students in other majors, as they have all just taken the college entrance examination.
Wu Xinyue's English was average, and she didn't expect to see Su Xiaoqi. However, she should have expected that Su Xiaoqi would steal the show in front of the whole grade when she sang a song, and that she must be a very good singer. However, she was still confident in her appearance. At this moment, she saw that Su Xiaoqi was chatting happily with two teachers, and one of them was a foreign teacher, and they all spoke English, so she felt a little unhappy.
She always felt that Su Xiaoqi was too dazzling at this time. Even though she was wearing an ordinary T-shirt and shorts, she still felt uncomfortable looking at her. Why could she see her everywhere?
Soon, Xiaoqi's assistant came over and said that the drawing of lots could begin and the singing sessions for the evening would be decided directly.
Xiaoqi drew the fifteenth one, which was considered to be the last one.
Teacher Lu drew the first one to open the show. Teacher Lu also said with a smile: "Just right, a good start."
Old man Galen drew the fifth one.
After the draw, everyone went backstage to familiarize themselves with the venue and the session schedule. Xiaoqi found it quite a coincidence that her promotional video was before Wu Xinyue, but the singing session was right after hers, so she drew number 14.
Everyone has to report the song title at this time.
The rehearsal was quite efficient. Xiao Qi added assistant Xiao Wu’s WeChat and can contact him anytime if there is anything.
For example, if a makeup artist or special accompaniment is needed, it will be handled by the assistant. The contestants can go back and recharge their energy before performing officially in the evening.
Xiaoqi felt that the music club handled these details very well, and it felt even more considerate than when she went to the TV station. This was probably because there was a Top Ten Singer competition every year during the freshman season, and she was familiar with it.
Wu Xinyue didn't leave immediately, but stayed behind. She wanted to look at the program list.
She chose a Japanese song. She knew that her appearance was an advantage and suitable for dancing. Her long hair was also an advantage. She chose a very cute Japanese song and sang and danced at the same time. The effect should be very good. She practiced privately for a long time. Moreover, she became popular in high school because of this song. Now she performed better, but she was a little nervous at that time.
She originally wanted to choose an English song, but there were too many foreign English teachers in the school, and she was worried that her weaknesses would be exposed during the official competition.
Moreover, English songs feel more lyrical and not suitable for being cute.
She wanted to see what song Su Xiaoqi had signed up for. Wu Xinyue didn't pay any attention to the white-haired old lady or the foreign uncle. After all, the top ten students on campus were selected every year by default, and the other teachers participated mainly for entertainment.
Normally, contestants are not told about other contestants' songs, but Wu Xinyue has always been good at this. She acted coquettishly and cutely, and the guy in charge of the list showed her the list.
When she scanned Su Xiaoqi's music, she was confused. What kind of song is this? What the hell?
