Chapter 232
The boss was very busy, so he just glanced at her information and put it aside. He just remembered her name in his mind and showed more attention and curiosity to this junior.
This era can be said to be an era of talented people and heroes. The boss has seen countless geniuses, and there are countless people who are better than her. It is precisely because of the combination of these countless geniuses that the glory of the flower-growing country in the new century has come about.
Among these brilliant geniuses of the era, there are actually very few girls like Jiang Ning who came from the bottom of society but still cared about the people and the elders of her hometown, worked hard and was capable, and unexpectedly caught their eyes. That's why they paid extra attention to her.
It all depends on how she will go in the future and how far she can go. It is still unknown whether she can reach them.
Jiang Ning didn't know that she had caught the attention of the bigwigs in the core circle.
Although the TV drama copyright of "Star Mech" was not sold, the comic copyright was sold, and in the simultaneous serialization, not only the comic copyright of Star Mech, but also the comic copyrights of the other three works were sold together.
This amount of money is really just a drop in the bucket compared to Jiang Ning's current wealth.
Although Jiang Ning had no plans to sell the film and television rights of "Star Trek", people from outside had been contacting Jiang Ning all the time. As long as they could buy the copyright of Ning Meng's work, it would be like robbing money. This made people from outside want to contact Ning Meng like crazy, but Jiang Ning had already packed his bags, carried his luggage, and went to the military training base with his roommates in dormitory 401 for military training.
There are two things to do when a new semester starts. The first is that you can choose to live on campus or not. Jiang Ning still chose to live on campus and did not give up the house outside the campus. The house she bought has also been renovated, but it is far from the school, so she will not live there for the time being.
The second thing is that the new semester has started and these sophomores have to go to the military training base for training.
Last year, when the freshmen of Tsinghua University next door were having military training, Zhang Min even made fun of the freshmen of Tsinghua University for having to undergo military training right at the start of the school year.
Who would have thought that after having such a carefree year, they still couldn't escape this year and had to undergo military training in the same base with the freshmen from Tsinghua University next door.
The people in Room 401 were assigned to the same dormitory, just like they were in school.
Compared with the freshman military training, the sophomore military training is less rushed, which allows students to make more preparations. For example, those who need to buy sunscreen and post-sun repair can prepare in advance.
Jiang Ning has the habit of applying sunscreen every day.
She has dry skin and a thin stratum corneum. Prolonged exposure to the sun will cause a burning sensation on the surface of the skin.
Shen Xinlan's sunscreen was prepared by her mother. When the two of them were in the dormitory, applying a thick layer of sunscreen on their faces and hands, the other girls were curious and asked them what they were applying on their faces.
"Sunscreen, do you want to try it?" Shen Xinlan smiled and handed them the sunscreen: "I brought several bottles, you can try it."
Yu Qianqian looked at the sunscreen left and right, and said with a smile: "I finally know why you and Ningning are so fair, it turns out that you put this on your face every day!"
When she and Liu Yan were doing farm work, they were both exposed to the sun naked. How could they not get tanned?
She was better off, as her family didn't have many fields, so her skin color was only yellow, not particularly dark, but not as white as Jiang Ning and Shen Xinlan.
Shen Xinlan's entire body was pink and white.
Zhang Min also came over and looked at the sunscreen in her hand, "Is this thing really effective?"
Several girls in the dormitory had no idea about sun protection, so Jiang Ning explained the concept of photoaging to them, which scared them so much that they quickly washed their hands and applied sunscreen on their faces. After discussing it, the three of them decided to buy a sunscreen together.
Shen Xinlan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you. If you really feel embarrassed, when it's my turn to be on duty, you can help me do it."
Liu Yan immediately smiled and said, "Okay, okay, leave it to us!" The three little girls hurriedly applied the lotion on their faces. It was the first time for them, so they were reluctant to use too much and only applied a thin layer on their faces.
Shen Xinlan smiled and said, "It's useless to apply too little, apply more, I still have more!"
Liu Yan was used to being exposed to the sun from doing farm work since she was a child, but she was just applying it for fun. She smiled and said, "It's okay, we can just try applying it ourselves. I'm so tanned that I can't get white no matter how much I apply. I'm just applying it for fun."
Seeing that Xi Weilu was just sitting on the bed looking at them, Zhang Min quickly waved to Xi Weilu: "Lulu, come here!" When wiping Xi Weilu's face, Zhang Min couldn't help but say: "Oh, your little face is so dark, you actually look pretty." She put her palm on Xi Weilu's face, and it was really as big as her palm.
Xi Weilu is dark and thin, with a palm-sized oval face, a pointed chin, and big black eyes. When she looks at you quietly, she looks a bit like a timid and confused little mouse.
Maybe because she was too thin and too young, the girls in dormitory 401 always liked to feed her.
In this era when no one is rich, this is actually not easy.
However, the girls in dormitory 401 may also be greatly influenced by Zhang Min. Zhang Min is the kind of person who wants to buy herself delicious food when she makes money and not let herself go unappreciated. Gradually, Yu Qianqian, who has the best relationship with her, has also been influenced by her and has become generous in spending money on food. The two of them are particularly easily influenced together. Zhang Min likes to buy food, and Yu Qianqian likes to buy new clothes. When the two of them get together, they like to buy both clothes and snacks.
Liu Yan was like an older sister, watching the two of them having fun all day long.
The military training in college is actually similar to that in high school. The first week of military training is basic military training such as standing at attention, marching, and hand gestures.
Although several people in the dormitory applied sunscreen, they were still severely burned by the September sun at the end of the day.
Yu Qianqian and Liu Yan were doing farm work at home. They were only exposed to the sun once during the double harvest season in the summer vacation, but it was not so bad.
Zhang Min was the only one who was from the town. Her family ran a shop and she had never done any farm work. She had fair skin, but after being exposed to the sun all day, her face was sunburned red. As soon as she returned to the dormitory, she lay down like a dead fish, rolling around on the bed, wailing: "I can't take it anymore, I really can't take it anymore, I'm about to pass out, Yan Zi, Qian Qian, help me to the school clinic, I can't take it anymore, I'm dizzy, my legs hurt, my arms hurt, everything hurts!"
Liu Yan and Yu Qianqian were so scared that they came to her to ask, "What's wrong? Did you get a heat stroke?"
Zhang Min lay on the bed with lifeless eyes, staring at the ceiling: "Why do we need military training? I'm not here to join the army. Is it appropriate for me, a science student from the School of Mathematics, to come to military training?"
Although Shen Xinlan applied sunscreen, the effectiveness of sunscreen is limited. No matter how thick it is, her face is now stained. After washing her face with cold water, she madly applied aloe vera cream for post-sun repair and hydration. Her skin was originally white, and although it was not as serious as Liu Min's, it was also sunburned red. She shouted softly: "I have never been sunburned like this. Ouch, it hurts. My face is sunburned red. If I had known that my mother asked me to take a leave, I would have agreed."
Her uncle is a professor at Peking University and her family has some connections. If she really doesn't want to come to the military training and wants to ask for leave, her family can find a way for her.
She didn't participate in military training in high school, but she thought about participating in it in college. However, she regretted it on the first day.
She smeared a thick layer of aloe vera cream on her face, neck, back of hands, and any skin exposed to the sun. Seeing her smearing it all over her face, Zhang Min quickly lay on the bed, stretched her legs backwards, and stretched out her face: "Quick, quick, put some on me too, my face is sunburned too!"
Zhang Min lay motionless on the bed, waiting for Shen Xinlan to wipe her face. How could Shen Xinlan pay attention to her? She put the aloe vera cream aside and said, "If you want to apply it, do it yourself. Why are you waiting for me to serve you?"
Zhang Min giggled: "I am so tired that I can't even lift my arms and legs." She called Liu Yan again: "Yanzi! Yanzi! Help me wipe my face!"
Liu Yan was also tired, but not as exaggerated as Shen Xinlan and Zhang Min. She smiled and said, "I think you are very energetic."
"Illusion! It's all an illusion. I really can't take it anymore!" She slumped on the bed like a dead pig, not moving an inch, and shouted again: "Qianqian! Lulu!"
Yu Qianqian ignored her!
When Xi Weilu was called by her, she was about to go over and really help her apply it, but was pulled by Shen Xinlan and patted Zhang Min: "Don't bully our Lulu, our Lulu's hands are hands that contribute to the motherland, not hands that wipe your face, get up and apply it yourself!"
Then he pulled Xi Weilu over and applied some on her tanned face.
Xi Weilu was very well-behaved. She let her play with her and couldn't help but smile.
"I want one too!" Yu Qianqian hurried over and asked Shen Xinlan: "Xinlan, can I try it?"
"Try it, I still have several bottles." Shen Xinlan smiled indifferently and said, "It's when I'm on duty..."
"I know! I'll help you with your duty~!" Yu Qianqian hurried over and applied aloe vera cream on her tanned face. After applying it, she sighed comfortably: "It's so cool and comfortable!"
Zhang Min, who was lying on the bed pretending to be dead the previous second, as if he was paralyzed and unable to move, heard Yu Qianqian's comfortable sigh, and the next second he climbed up from the bed, smiling and happily rubbing something on his face.
Liu Yan also went to queue up with a smile.
Shen Xinlan called Jiang Ning, who had just come out of the shower and was still drying her hair, "Ning Ning, do you want to apply some on your face? It has the effect of repairing, calming and soothing after sun exposure."
"Yes!" Jiang Ning's hair was cut short again, so it was very convenient to wash her hair. She casually wiped her head with a dry towel a few times, walked over and put some water on her face first, and then applied aloe vera cream on her face and neck.
Several girls in the dormitory, each of them applying thick aloe vera cream on their faces, looked at each other, and then burst into laughter.
Shen Xinlan couldn't help laughing, and even Xi Weilu, who was always silent and wandering outside dormitory 401, raised the corners of her lips slightly.
After laughing, Yu Qianqian looked at Shen Xinlan’s fair and flawless skin, and asked her curiously, “Can this thing really repair after sun exposure?” She asked whimsically, “If I apply this every day, can I become as white as you?”
Yu Qianqian fell in love with a senior student last year. Now she pays special attention to her appearance and wants to make herself whiter.
Liu Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is for after-sun repair, not whitening. If you really want to get whiter, you might as well ask Lulu to test all similar whitening products on the market for you to see which one has the best whitening effect."
Zhang Min yelled, "Lulu! Lulu!"
Xi Weilu put down the book in her hand and looked up silently.
Zhang Min shouted, "Lulu, after the military training, take these things and test them to see what effects they have! And also help us test which skin care brand has the best skin care effect!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Yu Qianqian also hurriedly said, "From now on, we will use the skin care products you choose that are most effective. From now on, our skin care will depend on you!"
Shen Xinlan said: “I provide samples.”
"By the way, test the food in all the restaurants around us!" Zhang Min continued.
Yu Qianqian said again: "Yes, yes, yes, from now on, where we go to eat is up to you. Whichever restaurant you say is clean and reliable, we'll go there!"
This time it was Jiang Ning who smiled: "I will sponsor the samples and testing fees."
Jiang Ning didn't spend much time in the dormitory during the entire semester last year. In half a year, Xi Weilu had already integrated into Dormitory 401.
After Shen Xinlan applied aloe vera cream on Xi Weilu's face and neck, she took a hairband and combed her drooping hair back, which always covered her face. She lifted her chin and looked at her small face, which was only the size of a palm. She was finally satisfied.
Xi Weilu blinked, feeling very uncomfortable.
Shen Xinlan even tied her hair into a sparrow's tail, and turned around to ask everyone in the dormitory: "Do you think Lulu looks better with her hair tied up like this?"
Jiang Ning was the first to nod in agreement: "Indeed, our Lulu has an oval face, big eyes, and a standard beauty."
As if she didn't expect Jiang Ning to say that, Xi Weilu blinked her big eyes again, actually feeling a little shy.
Zhang Min came over as if she had discovered a new world: "Really!" She gestured to Xi Weilu's face with her hand, and then gestured to her own face: "It's only half of mine!"
She reached out and pulled Xi Weilu's cheeks to the sides, then laughed: "This way it will be as big as my face, hahahahahaha!"
Shen Xinlan quickly slapped her hand away and checked Xi Weilu's face to see if it was red from being pinched by her. Fortunately, Zhang Min was very sensible and only pinched her cheek lightly.
However, Shen Xinlan still said to Xi Weilu softly: “Next time someone comes to pull your cheek, you must refuse, don’t let others pull it, understand?”
Xi Weilu still didn't speak, just blinking her eyes.
Shen Xinlan couldn’t help but smile and rubbed her hair lovingly.
High school military training only lasts for one week, but college military training lasts for one month. In addition to daily basic military training, there are many more items that are not included in high school military training, such as target shooting, marching with guns, climbing ropes, crossing uneven terrain, and survival in the wild.
For Jiang Ning, who believes that coming to this world is an experience, she is very happy and never tired of enjoying these military training programs, and she completes each project very seriously.
She was very outstanding in both physical strength and energy. After the military training every day, when they returned to the dormitory, everyone in the dormitory fell down and wailed, but Jiang Ning was the only one who was still as strong and energetic as ever, and could even read a book before going to bed, which made Zhang Min exclaim that she was not a human being.
Because of her excellent physical functions and outstanding athletic ability demonstrated during military training, she was called to the counselor's office after the training.
"Universiade?" Jiang Ning was a little surprised: "Isn't the Universiade over?"
The Universiade is held every two years, and this year's Universiade is held in Palma, East Spain.
At last year's school sports meet, because Cui Yujie privately signed her up for four extremely physically demanding sports, she happened to attend the 'Wanhua Film Festival' and did not participate in the school sports meet. Therefore, she had nothing to do with this year's spring university student games and summer Universiade.
Unexpectedly, this year her counselor asked her to participate in the selection for the National College Students Games.
The counselor handed her a document and said, "It's not this year's Universiade, but the one after next. This year, our country successfully applied to the World Sports Organization. The next Universiade will be held in Beijing, my country. We are the host country, and our school will definitely participate."
Jiang Ning really hadn't paid much attention to this matter. She said she was applying last year, but she didn't know if she would be successful. She didn't expect the result to come out this year.
Jiang Ning handed the materials back to the counselor inexplicably, and asked in confusion: "This has nothing to do with me, right? Aren't there students with sports specialties?"
"How can it be okay?" The counselor said with a complicated expression, "Third and fourth years will graduate the year after next. This year's military training is mainly to select good seedlings from freshmen and sophomores and train them."
He also didn't expect that the National College Students Games would be related to their School of Mathematics. Although students with sports expertise can choose the majors they are interested in, almost no students with sports expertise choose the Four Major Insane Asylums. It's because the Four Major Insane Asylums are too professional. For their School of Mathematics, if they don't know math, then they really don't know it!
The counselor gave her the results and physical fitness evaluation form of her performance in the military training. Who would have thought that a girl who didn't even participate in the school sports meeting last year would have such good physical functions and such developed motor nerves? In this military training, she was not only the first in various physical fitness, but also the model in various projects. Many projects were actually designed to test students' potential and discover good seedlings for the National College Students Games.
Jiang Ning: ...
She just wanted to experience the military training life that she had long forgotten in her previous life.
The counselor said, "Last year's school sports meet was originally held to select outstanding university students for the Universiade two years later. You just missed last year's sports meet, so you can't miss it again this year. Here is the registration form. Please see what you are good at. Everyone can register for at least one item, and you can register for up to three plus one. Everyone must participate!"
The General Administration of Sport attaches great importance to the Universiade in two years. It will definitely be too late to cram at the last minute. Good sports students must be trained early.
In addition to some ordinary students with extraordinary athletic talents, they mainly look for students from sports colleges and students with sports specialties. Jiang Ning is one of the ordinary students with relatively good talents whom they accidentally discovered.
Especially her performance in this military training, which can be said to be very outstanding, Jiang Ning caught the attention of the teachers in the school's physical education department.
So Jiang Ning had another task, which was to go to the gym every evening and practice sports with the coaches.
A lot of people were called to the gymnasium, most of them were sports students and athletes from high-level sports teams.
Kyoto University does not have a sports major. Students with sports expertise can choose any major that interests them at Kyoto University. So except for the four major insane asylums, the students with sports expertise in the high-level sports teams present are from all kinds of majors.
The first thing these selected people do when they arrive at the stadium is to fill out a form. In addition to filling in basic information such as their name, age, grade, major, height, weight, etc., they also fill in the sports they are good at and, if they want to participate in the National College Games, the events they want to sign up for.
Jiang Ning was interspersed among these students with sports expertise. They all knew what they were good at, but Jiang Ning really didn't know.
So she filled in long-distance running in the column that she was good at, and after thinking about it, she added: I have many years of experience in long-distance running, and I practice Sanda and boxing on a daily basis.
But her fancy moves are probably not applicable in competitions.
Next is the physical fitness test.
Basic standing long jump, sit-ups, pull-ups, 50-meter run, 800-meter run, etc.
Jiang Ning's profile included her experience in long-distance running, so she also underwent a series of tests including endurance running, vital capacity, and cardiopulmonary function.
The results of the physical fitness test came out, and Jiang Ning scored excellent in all of them.
Jiang Ning was somewhat surprised, yet not surprised, when he received the result.
In her previous life, she discovered that she had plenty of energy. After working intensively every day, she only needed to rest for a few hours at night. The next day, she would be full of energy and spirit again, without feeling too tired.
The same is true in this life. Since her rebirth, she has hardly given herself a holiday for four consecutive years. She has a daily workload of 12,000 words all year round, and her daily study and work schedule is full, but she doesn't feel tired. In fact, once she gets into work mode, some unhappy things in life can be immediately thrown behind her, as if her whole body has entered a combat state.
When filling in the event he wanted to sign up for, Jiang Ning didn't know what sport he was good at, but he felt that he should be good at long-distance running, so he chose the 5,000-meter long-distance run.
It was also when choosing the middle- and long-distance running events that Jiang Ning realized that there was no 3,000-meter long-distance running event in the Universiade, only 1,500 meters, 5,000 meters, and 10,000 meters.
Jiang Ning usually runs 10 kilometers long distances, and thinks that she should have no problem running 5,000 meters.
But what she didn't know was that long-distance running competitions and daily long-distance running exercises are completely different concepts.
She was used to long-distance running at a constant speed for many years and had no idea how to allocate her energy during a competition.
So during the first practice, when she was running at a steady pace, her coach, who was testing her, kept yelling in her ear with a stopwatch, "Too slow! Speed up!"
"You're racing! Not strolling!"
"The pace is not good enough, we need to speed up!"
"Pay attention to the distribution of physical strength! Speed up the pace!"
Jiang Ning ran 5,000 meters as required by her coach, and she felt more tired than running 10 kilometers normally.
Since it didn't work once, the coach asked her to run a second time, as if testing her limits. Jiang Ning ran over and over again, four times in a row, which was 20,000 meters.
These 20,000 meters were completely different from the 20,000 meters she ran every day. Even though she had plenty of energy, after running four accelerated 5,000 meters, she was exhausted.
The coach discovered that her physical strength had not been exhausted and she still had some energy left, so he asked her to try a 10,000-meter long-distance run.
After a week of testing, the coach finally discovered that Jiang Ning's long-distance running habits from both her past and present lives had been ingrained in her bones and were very difficult to change. She would always unconsciously enter a rhythm that made her comfortable rather than a competitive rhythm.
There are many people in the country who can run 5,000 meters. What they want is to be the fastest among so many 5,000-meter runners in the country or even the world and win the gold medal!
The coach tried to correct her several times but failed. However, he really couldn't bear to sacrifice her superior physical strength and endurance.
The head coach at the side frowned, looked down at her 50-meter sprint result in the physical fitness test, waved his hand impatiently and shouted, "Let her try the sprint!"
The girl who had been watching for a while nearby laughed.
The girls around her looked at her strangely, not understanding what she was laughing at.
The laughing girl and Jiang Ning are both sophomores in the same class. They joined the May Fourth Literary Society when they were freshmen and are from the same hometown as the vice-president of the society. The vice-president of the society originally had a bright future, but he was suddenly given a serious warning by the school, and his hopes of continuing his studies in graduate school were shattered.
She said to the girl next to her: "You are a freshman this year, right? Do you know who she is?"
The girl next to him shook her head in surprise, "I don't know, is she famous?"
"She's famous, isn't she?" The girl thought of the news she had heard from her senior, and said with a smile, "She's really amazing, and there's an amazing team behind her that's specifically building up her reputation as a talented woman. Well, just building up a reputation as a talented woman isn't enough, and now she's trying to get involved in the sports world. She probably thinks she can find someone to run for her in sports, so she can build up the reputation of an all-around talented woman, right?"
