Du Wanying's answer stunned everyone present. This was 40,000 yuan, and she just rejected it so casually?
Even Zhao Fangling looked shocked. Was her daughter so impressive?! This was 40,000 yuan, and she just refused it?
Her Shuisheng had never seen 40,000 yuan in her life! !
Director Liu was also dumbfounded. This was 40,000 yuan! If this girl wasn't the top student in the country, he would definitely think she had a mental problem!
Du Wanying: ???
Is there something wrong with my brain? Are you kidding me? I know the direction of China's development over the next few decades!
Zhao Fangling: You are the one with a problem in your brain. Even if my daughter, Zhao Fangling, is as dumb as a pig, she is still smarter than you!
Hearing this, Director Liu could only shake his head and walked away dejectedly like a defeated rooster.
Soon, only Peking University, Tsinghua University, Capital University and Renmin University were left on the field.
Du Wanying invited the admissions directors of the three universities back home, poured a cup of tea for each of them, and sat opposite the three directors, waiting for them to speak.
Finally, it was the director of admissions at Renmin University who spoke first. "Let me throw out some ideas, Mr. Du. In addition to the usual free tuition, free accommodation, and free textbooks, we at Renmin University also offer you free cafeteria access. Furthermore, upon graduation, we'll provide you with an internship opportunity at a central government ministry!"
Listen, this is the National People’s Congress, known as the cradle of officials, and it speaks so majestically.
All the above are not important. What is important is the internship opportunities in ministries and commissions. Only a university like Renmin University has alumni all over the country, from the central government to local governments, from grassroots to senior officials. Only a university with everything you need dares to make such a boast.
Renmin University's initiative gave rise to a wave of discussion that gave Peking University, Tsinghua University and Capital University a cold sweat.
But of course they didn't know that Du Wanying didn't want to follow the path of the system, so this condition, which seemed extremely generous to outsiders, had no practical significance to Du Wanying.
After the NPC finished stating the conditions, it looked at Chen Qingzhi and Li Aijun with great complacency, as if to say, "Let's see how you respond."
Chen Qingzhi and Li Aijun looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
Isn't the purpose of attending a prestigious university to find a job? Renmin University has already arranged everything for your future, and the starting point is so high, it's an offer no one can refuse.
However, since it has come to this, Chen Qingzhi and Li Aijun feel that they should still fight for it. After all, Du Wanying had just rejected such an astronomical figure as 40,000 yuan, and she might refuse again.
In the end, it was Li Aijun from Capital University who spoke first: "Our offer is the same as Renmin University's. All fees are waived, and we provide an annual scholarship of 1,000 yuan."
Li Aijun negotiated for this thousand yuan by calling the school overnight. Although Capital University also has scholarships, the maximum is only about one hundred yuan, which is already a very high amount and ordinary college students cannot spend it all at school.
But the 10,000 yuan scholarship from Shanghai University yesterday really scared Li Aijun, so he made several phone calls overnight and finally got the 1,000 yuan after much persuasion.
Du Wanying nodded after hearing this. It was not the time to make a final decision yet. She had to listen to all three companies before deciding which one to choose.
After the first two universities finished speaking, Chen Qingzhi cleared his throat and prepared to speak. "Since everyone is so frank, I'll also tell you about the conditions at Peking University and Tsinghua University. Besides waiving all fees, allowing students to choose their major, and providing guaranteed admission to graduate school, our graduate advisors are the top professors at our universities."
This move by Peking University and Tsinghua University has to be said to be amazing. Since they cannot beat you in terms of money, Peking University and Tsinghua University, as one of the top universities in the country, will compete with you in terms of faculty.
Chen Qingzhi felt relieved after he finished speaking. This was a trick he came up with overnight, and he also applied to the school leaders overnight, just waiting to stab other schools in the back.
In the 1970s, there were hardly any graduate students, let alone serious college students, in a county.
After listening to the conditions of the three schools, Du Shuisheng and Zhao Fangling pulled Du Wanying into the inner room.
"Yingying, which school do you want to choose? I think Renmin University is a good choice. It has internship opportunities at the central government. The key is that your direct leaders will all be your alumni, so they will definitely stay. Maybe our Du family will also produce a high-ranking official."
"Mom, I don't want to go into politics. It's too tiring. I just want to stay at home with you and Dad for the rest of my life."
"Silly girl, you're not going to get married? You're still going to stay with me and your dad for the rest of your life."
"Even if I marry, I will be with you."
Zhao Fangling reached out and touched Du Wanying's forehead. "You are such a sweet-talker, girl."
"Mom, I'm actually more inclined to choose the other two schools. After all, they are the two best schools in the country. It's always good to have the opportunity to learn more knowledge."
"Okay, you can choose whatever school you want. I'll do whatever you want."
"Mom, you're the best. You have to accompany me to the capital when the time comes!"
Zhao Fangling thought it was a joke, but she didn't expect that Du Wanying had already bought a house in Beijing before school started. Of course, this is a story for later, so let's not go into it for now.
After the father and daughter finished their discussion, they walked out of the room.
The three admissions directors who were chatting stopped immediately when they saw someone coming out.
Like a primary school student waiting for the teacher to give him a certificate, he sat upright, waiting for Du Wanying to speak.
Du Wanying first went to the National People's Congress. Seeing this, Chen Qingzhi and Li Aijun's faces darkened. "So they chose the National People's Congress after all? Of course, no one can refuse a stable job. Besides, the one the National People's Congress is offering isn't just a stable job, it's a golden job."
The director of the Renmin University also had a smile on his face. He turned around and raised his eyebrows at the other two, as if to say, "I'm sorry, brothers."
Unexpectedly, the following words made the director of Renmin University's expression change 180 degrees.
"I'm sorry, Director. I'm very grateful to Renmin University for giving me this opportunity. I know it's one of the best universities in my country, with alumni all over the country. But unfortunately, I'm just a young woman with limited ambitions. I only want to pursue academic research, not a career in government. I'm sorry to have failed you. Please forgive me."
Du Wanying's words were flawless. They not only maintained the reputation of Renmin University as a prestigious university, but also fundamentally explained the reason for her refusal.
The light in the eyes of the admissions director of Renmin University dimmed, but hope rekindled in the eyes of Chen Qingzhi and Li Aijun.
After Du Wanying rejected the National People's Congress, she walked to the side and bowed again.
