Chapter 108 Making a Decision
Minister Yang has already heard from Old Wu about Lin Siqiao's situation.
What's more, all the Friendship Stores across the country are under their management, and he also knows that the sales of the Shanghai branch have skyrocketed.
I heard that they founded a clothing brand that specializes in custom clothing.
In addition, a treasure house was built, which is very popular among foreign guests and dignitaries from various countries.
Originally, Minister Yang was planning to organize the heads of branches from all over the country to go to Shanghai to learn from others next month.
It seems there is no need to go now, because their military advisor is here!
Minister Yang stared at Lin Siqiao's head for a long time. He didn't know what was going on with this little girl's head and why she was so smart.
He regrets it so much now. If he had known it earlier, there would be no trouble for Old Wu and his unit.
It’s also Old Wu’s fault that he kept such important news to himself until today.
Never mind. There's no point saying this now.
Minister Yang knew where Lin Siqiao was hesitant, and he was very pleased that this child was loyal and righteous.
However, the top priority now is to seize this opportunity as soon as possible and develop our own economy.
Otherwise, even if all the things left by our ancestors were sold abroad, it would not solve the fundamental problem!
"Xiao Lin, when weighing two benefits, choose the greater one; when weighing two harms, choose the lesser one."
"Now, the country has reached a point where there is no time to lose, do you understand?"
When Minister Yang said this, his expression was solemn. Lin Siqiao could see that his eyes were filled with expectations for the future.
It was precisely because of his words that Lin Siqiao's mind was completely opened up.
Perhaps there are still many imperfections in this era, but what’s the point of complaining?
Instead of complaining about the darkness all the time, it is better to walk with a lantern. As you walk, the sky may become brighter.
"Minister Yang, I am too narrow-minded."
"That's not the case."
Minister Yang waved his hand and said bluntly, "Don't worry about work. Just pick the school you like and we will coordinate the rest."
"You can think about it for a few days. There's no need to rush."
"No need, Minister Yang, I've already thought about it."
"If possible, I would like to transfer to Beijing University."
"Really?"
Minister Yang slammed the table and stood up, rubbing his hands excitedly.
"That's great, I'll make arrangements right away."
"By the way, Xiaolin, if you major in English, have you ever thought about what to minor in?"
Currently, there are only three departments of foreign languages at Kyoto University, namely the Spanish Languages Department, the Russian Languages Department, and the Oriental Languages Department.
The Spanish language department only offers three languages: English, French and German. The Russian language department, needless to say, only offers Russian.
The Eastern languages department covers the most languages, but they are all relatively niche.
Speaking of minor subjects, Minister Yang suddenly remembered.
Old Wu just said on the phone that everything has been arranged and he will take the little girl to visit the famous teacher tomorrow.
Then just wait and see which one the little girl is interested in, and then make a decision.
Minister Yang was thinking happily, but he didn't expect Lin Siqiao to shake his head after hearing it.
"Minister Yang, I don't plan to major in English."
"What? You...you don't want to major in English."
"So what do you want to fix?"
“I want to major in economics, is that okay?”
Lin Siqiao has been taught bilingually since childhood and has learned English for more than 20 years. There is no need for him to waste a few more years learning this, as it is already enough.
If you want to play, then play big.
Don’t think that the Department of Economics is unknown and unpopular now.
This is the predecessor of Peking University Guanghua School of Management, and it is the cradle that many talented people dream of!
Lin Siqiao calculated that by the time she graduated from university, the reform and opening up would be around the corner.
By that time, the global economy will be developing rapidly, and no major will be more popular than economics.
As for other languages, she can just take them as a minor. She has already laid a solid foundation and it won't be difficult to learn them.
Minister Yang was organizing his words, thinking about how to persuade her to give up this idea.
Lin Siqiao asked again, "Minister Yang, can I only take one minor?"
From what the little girl said, could it be...
"Do you want to build more doors?"
"Um."
Lin Siqiao nodded. That was indeed what she meant.
Minister Yang was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he was overjoyed. For such special talents, special arrangements must be made!
"As long as you can arrange the time, you can take any minor you want!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Minister Yang."
After the two sides talked for a while, Lin Siqiao stood up and said goodbye.
Minister Yang told her about tomorrow's schedule so that she could be mentally prepared, and then asked Tang Haiqing to take her downstairs.
"Director Tang, is there any more information that needs to be translated?"
When going downstairs, Lin Siqiao asked casually, the translation machine she bought yesterday cost her tens of thousands of dollars.
If she didn't translate a little more to get back her investment, Lin Siqiao always felt that she was at a great disadvantage!
What we are saying is, there’s nothing wrong with saving when you should save and spending when you should spend, right?
Tang Haiqing was even happier than her, "Yes, I'll get it for you right away."
After a while, Tang Haiqing went to the confidential room and brought out a thick stack of information.
It is wrapped in kraft paper on the outside and tied with hemp rope, making it easy to lift.
"Xiao Lin, take this."
Tang Haiqing handed over a thick envelope. During the time they were talking upstairs, the proofreading team had already checked it.
The translations by Lin Siqiao are grammatically correct, fluent in sentences, and have almost no flaws.
"You translated a total of 26,352 words this time. Based on 20 cents per thousand words, the total is 527 yuan and 4 points."
"Please click. If there is no problem, please sign here."
After Lin Siqiao counted the items and confirmed that they were correct, he signed his name on the receipt.
"Thank you, Director Tang."
"You're welcome. It's my honor."
Not long after Lin Siqiao left, Minister Yang began to arrange the following matters.
Transferring to another university is indeed not an easy matter these days.
However, Lin Siqiao's academic performance and personal resume are quite impressive.
In addition, this time the report was jointly written by two ministers, so there is no reason for the organization not to approve it.
Tang Haiqing also followed Minister Yang's instructions and made a phone call to the Friendship Store in Shanghai.
The public security comrades had come over to say hello before, and when Director Zhong learned that Lin Siqiao was taken away by the people from the Ministry of Commerce, he vaguely guessed something in his heart.
Now that I have received the notice, although I feel reluctant, I am still happy for Lin Siqiao.
After all, what she is going to do is of great significance!
"I understand, Director Tang."
"Please tell Xiaolin that all the employees of the Friendship Store sincerely wish her the best."
"The future is bright and promising!"
On the other hand, Minister Wu also contacted his mentor, Professor Liang Zhongping, the head and honorary president of the Spanish Department of Peking University, as soon as possible.
"Teacher, this child is extremely talented, and his learning and thinking abilities surpass those of most people."
"I would like to ask you to do me a favor and give me some advice."
This was the first time that his favorite student opened his mouth, and Mr. Liang didn't know what to say. He just said that when he was free tomorrow, he should bring the person over to see him.
He was really curious about what kind of girl she was.
It can make the disciple, who has always hated the idea of using backdoors, take it so seriously.
