This was the first time in Jian Yunxi's life that he had received such an evaluation: it looked like a primary school student's homework.
She wanted to cry but had no tears, and her seniors burst into laughter.
"School girl, don't be discouraged!"
"Professor Li Ming's Jessup petition was also criticized as 'looking like an elementary school student's homework'."
Well, it turns out this is chicken soup that has been passed down from generation to generation.
But she still wasn't comforted, so she quickly called her beloved boyfriend. Unexpectedly, Lu Yang also laughed out loud on the other end.
"Humph, you're laughing at me too!"
"I don't have any, I just think my girlfriend is cute."
"But I was hurt by you."
"Then what do you want me to do to forgive me?"
"Just give me a kiss."
Jian Yunxi felt that he was being very pretentious at this time, fortunately Lu Yang was able to cooperate with his performance.
With the encouragement from her relatives, Jian Yunxi was full of energy again. It was just a small petition, how could she not get it?
She returned to the library and, following the guidance of her senior, found the Commentary on the Statute of the International Court of Justice, a blue book as thick as a brick, with a red seal of "Collection of Peking University Institute of International Law" on the title page.
The Westlaw database of Peking University can only be used until 10 o'clock in the evening because the library closes on time. Jian Yunxi saved the data he had sorted out on his computer and also saved it on his own USB drive just in case.
When she returned to the dormitory, Guo Xinyue and the others left a desk lamp for her with a note underneath: Yunxi, there is milk and bread on my table. Remember to eat if you are hungry.
Jian Yunxi was touched. She washed up and climbed into bed quietly, but she couldn't fall asleep again because of the information in the competition group.
Professor Li Ming: This year, 178 teams registered worldwide, a record high.
Senior: Ahhhhhh, Dad, Mom, why did I get into this at the right time.
Senior 1: Pressure is motivation, comrades, go for it.
Senior 2: Fight them and let them know how powerful our Peking University is.
Jian Yunxi didn't want to talk at all. She could only ask someone to give her some encouragement!
Professor Li Ming: A careful study of Article 121 of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Jian Yunxi.
It’s a cloud, not a moon: Got it, Professor Li.
She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, recalling the "Rules on the Interpretation of International Treaties" in her mind. Suddenly, an idea flashed across her mind, and she seemed to have found a breakthrough.
But her roommates were all asleep, so she hid under the covers, typed her thoughts into text messages on her mobile phone, and then forced herself to fall asleep.
So when she finally finished putting together the written application and submitted it to Professor Li Ming for review the next day, she finally received his positive comment: "Now it is a college student's assignment."
Due to the impact of the 2008 economic crisis, the college also cut Jessup's travel budget. The seniors were indignant and didn't understand why it was their turn to have to cut the budget.
Jian Yunxi also encountered big trouble when he went to print the written statement, because there was a note on the printer: Printing limit is 200 pages, and any excess will be at the expense of the individual.
She had to convert the list of cases from the "island system analogy" into a table, which saved two pages!
She recalled what her senior sister who participated in the competition last year said: "The thickness of the letter has never been a criterion for scoring, but every millimeter of paper should reflect the lawyer's precise thinking."
During the next four days of the competition, Jian Yunxi was completely confused.
On the first day of the preliminary round, the Kyoto University team faced Japan's Waseda University, and they used the "Capabilities Principle of Developing Countries" to win the game.
On the second day of the round-robin tournament, Kyoto University advanced to the quarterfinals with a total score of 3rd.
On the third day of the elimination round, the University of Hong Kong was eliminated in the morning and the University of Sydney was eliminated in the afternoon.
On the fourth day of the final, Jingda successfully won the third place, and Jian Yunxi won the "Best Letter Award".
Kyoto University missed the international competition in Washington at the end of March, while the teams from the East Asian region that entered the international competition were the China Political Science and Law team and the Kyushu University team in Japan.
Jian Yunxi was a little discouraged, but the senior students stepped forward to comfort her: "Jian Yunxi, you are asking too much. Didn't you see that Professor Li was grinning from ear to ear?"
"ah?"
"This is already our best result in years. I believe that next year we can do even better!"
Jian Yunxi didn't know that Jessup was more valuable than that.
After the competition, she finally had time to eat with her roommates and hang out in the library.
"I heard that there is a new Ximen Grilled Wings restaurant at the west gate of the school. Let's go and try it together." Guo Xinyue had wanted to go for a long time, but she had been holding back because she thought that Jian Yunxi was still in the competition.
"Great, great. Let's celebrate Yunxi winning the award and Huang Miao becoming a probationary party member!"
Sun Qimiao gave the order, and after finishing his professional class in dormitory 307, he went directly to the grilled wing restaurant.
When Jian Yunxi heard the name of the store, she thought that the store only sold grilled wings. She also thought that when Jian Yunxiao came to Beijing after the college entrance examination, she would definitely bring her over to try it, because her sister loved eating chicken wings the most.
I didn’t expect that the store also has other types of barbecue such as Ximen chicken skin and Ximen rice cake.
Guo Xinyue can't eat spicy food, so she ordered one plate of honey-flavored grilled wings and one plate of sweet and spicy grilled wings, which were filled with bone-in meat, chicken skin, rice cakes, and various seasonal vegetables. Guo Xinyue even ordered a glass of draft beer.
"Still want to drink?"
"To be happy you have to eat and drink. Besides, draft beer doesn't make you drunk!"
"Okay, I've been wanting to try it for a long time!"
Huang Miao also supported it, saying that she was 20 years old and could still drink.
Jian Yunxi had drunk before, but she couldn't hold her liquor well.
So in the end, only Jian Yunxi was left with a red face from drinking, his eyes fixed on Guo Xinyue.
"Yunxi, why are you looking at me?" Guo Xinyue felt uneasy.
