This scholarship from Yude Middle School was posted online, sparking envy and jealousy from many netizens. They jokingly called it a "sky-high" scholarship.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what kind of private school can be so impressive? They offer such high scholarships. They are exaggerating. Aren't you afraid of getting your tongue stuck?"
"Don't write a blank check, right? Just wait for the college entrance examination this year to cash in the reward."
It was not until a careful netizen investigated and found the list of directors of this private school. Xi Qingyuan's name is clearly on the list, okay.
I am sorry.
It turns out that the school director is this big boss who donates hundreds of millions to poor mountainous areas every year. This Mrs. Xi is really rich.
The news about the Yude Middle School scholarship spread quickly, and after confirming that the scholarship was real, the top students from major key schools in the province were stunned.
In just a few days, many students from the key No. 4 Middle School have submitted transfer applications.
The principal of No. 4 Middle School was shocked. During the mobilization meeting for the college entrance examination, he cursed inwardly as he had just stepped off the stage. If the principal of Yude was standing in front of him, he would definitely want to spit in the other person's face at this moment.
Here comes the same trick again and again.
Could Yude please have some shame? In the past, they competed for the gifted students who took the high school entrance exam, but now they just shamelessly compete for the ready-made students.
"Shame on you."
The principal of No. 4 Middle School took out a quick-acting heart-saving pill from his pocket, swallowed it, and his eyes became clear again.
At the same time, all the major schools had to use all kinds of persuasion to appease their top students. The teachers in the high school department of No. 4 Middle School did not even attend classes, and gave ideological education lessons to the top students with dry mouths:
“The temptation of money is an improper temptation.”
“Money is not everything, but knowledge is everything.”
…
"I hope you can take responsibility for your future life and not just focus on the petty gains in front of you."
Later on, the teachers directly used examples to belittle their opponents: "Yude is a school with a very poor school spirit. They can only use scholarships to attract top students. You can think for yourself how bad it is."
"The top scorers in the previous middle school entrance exams went to that school, but the college entrance exams didn't even make the top ten in the province. This shows how much it misleads students."
"Although these scholarships are generous, think carefully about whether you can maintain your grades there. Is it worth it to ruin your future for the temptation of just a few hundred thousand or a few hundred thousand yuan?"
The top students lowered their heads: "..."
Could you please not add the word “just” before hundreds of thousands? I almost can’t recognize this astronomical figure of hundreds of thousands.
In fact, there are not many top students leaving No. 4 Middle School. After all, most of the students come from well-off families and are not poor, so they do not expect to live on this money. However, even so, some of the top students from the middle and upper levels left.
These words reached Yude Middle School. The teachers at Yude almost jumped up and down when they heard them. Old Wang, who was drinking wolfberry tea, almost choked:
"The school spirit is bad?"
"Misleading the students?"
"Ruin your future?"
The teachers at Yude High School were furious. “We are a key school after all.”
Their alumni are from Harvard, MIT, Cambridge, Oxford and other world-renowned schools. How come it becomes so unbearable in the mouths of others?
If nothing else, Mrs. Xi is a well-known alumnus of Yude.
Lao Wang said coldly: "We are not garbage collectors. We don't want to take anything, whether it's fragrant or smelly. If you want to transfer to Yude at this critical moment, you must pass the exam anyway."
"That's right, our school is not allowed to award scholarships internally?" another teacher said indignantly.
Miss Li coughed lightly: "Well... our school is indeed suspected of stealing other people's top students."
The popularity of the "sky-high scholarship" incident forced the principal of Yude to announce on Weibo: "The scholarship is only because the school directors made a lot of money this year, and they decided to encourage students on campus."
"We welcome talented students from all walks of life to join Yude Middle School, and we will not reject any student who truly likes Yude. However, in order to prevent vicious competition, our school board has made the following decision:
This scholarship will be awarded in full to students who enrolled in 2019 or earlier. Students who transfer thereafter will not enjoy this preferential policy. This policy does not affect freshmen entering high school in the fall of 2020. ”
What he meant was: Don’t come, we in Yude just want to have fun by ourselves. There is no thought of snatching students away.
But... ahem, whether or not the students who have just finished their high school entrance exams choose to study at Yude is not something the principal can control.
This statement from Yude Middle School made the students who were thinking of transferring schools completely give up the idea and stay in their original schools.
Rocket Class of No. 4 Middle School.
The legend of Yude Middle School’s “sky-high scholarship” has been circulating in the class for a long time.
“Tsk, if Yude hadn’t issued this statement at the last minute, I would have wanted to get the scholarship.” said a top student from No. 4 Middle School.
They looked at Yue Shi's fleeting look of regret and asked with interest, "Why, Yue Shi, do you regret transferring from Yude to No. 4 Middle School?"
Yue Shi was indeed extremely regretful.
Yue Shi's family was not well off, otherwise she would not have agreed to Lu Lingshan's request and taken the blame for her.
According to Yue Shi's previous stable performance in the top 20 of Yude for many years, with such a generous scholarship, she will work hard to get into the top 50 in the province no matter how hard it is.
The reward for the top 50 is 200,000 yuan, not including the cumulative rewards and competition rewards. In terms of competition, Yue Shi can win the first prize in the province if she grits her teeth. Plus the generous rewards for Yude Middle School's midterm and final exams...
However, Lu Lingshan only gave Yue Shi 200,000 yuan to completely sever her relationship with Yu De. When Yue Shi saw this "sky-high scholarship" from Yu De, she bit her lower lip tightly.
There is a kind of regret for missing out on a million-dollar scholarship.
Why did she leave Yude?
The scholarship trick used by Yude Middle School has made it difficult for major key schools to get in.
Although it did not snatch the top students from their own school in the end, the teachers in the key middle schools were quite resentful and were extremely disgusted by the nouveau riche's behavior of poaching students.
It did not directly poach students from the first, second and third year of high school, but Yude snatched away the high-quality student resources for the future high school entrance examination of No. 4 Middle School.
As for students——
The students didn't have much of an opinion, but they were jealous of the scholarship and were particularly envious of Yude's rich second-generation students.
"Don't you just have one more scholarship than us?"
Well, sorry, we will try our best to prevent you from getting the scholarship.
It can be said without hesitation that if they were students of Yude, the school directors of Yude would never be so generous. The students of No. 4 Middle School can make the Yu De school directors go bankrupt by giving out scholarships.
Only the group of weak students at Yude can make the school directors feel at ease to offer scholarships. They are simply not competitive enough to get scholarships.
So——
This year, a slogan was born among the students of No. 4 Middle School: No. 4 Middle School will go all out to compete for the top 50 in the province, and No. 4 Middle School is only focused on winning the first prize in the province in the competition.
This year, a slogan has been circulating among students from other key middle schools: work hard to be in the top 100 in the province, leaving Yude students with no prizes to win.
So what if there is a scholarship? Yude students are capable of getting it!
Yude students: “…”
Du Heng, the top student at No. 4 Middle School, is Huaxu's friend. Huaxu laughed like crazy after learning about these things and slogans.
She patted Zhou Xiu, who was immersed in the sea of questions, and said earnestly:
"Xiu, you have to work hard in the biology and mathematics competitions. Learn from others and just focus on winning first prize!"
Zhou Xiu raised her head and squinted her eyes, not quite understanding why Huatiao suddenly laughed like crazy and then patted her shoulder neurotically.
The poor students who are always well-informed also learned the news when they were browsing the Internet.
They felt inexplicably complicated.
Why... they are still struggling over whether to take the college entrance examination, but these top students have already started a fierce competition for the provincial rankings in the college entrance examination?
This dazzling self-confidence and the ability to defend the dignity of the school are truly enviable.
Ranked first, second, third, fourth... or even top 100 in the province is such an unattainable dream for the poor students.
The top students in No. 4 Middle School have a natural confidence in themselves. They dare to stand up and make tough remarks in the competition between schools.
I, from No. 4 Middle School, just don’t want you to get the scholarship. So what?
All we want is the first prize, and we will do our best to be in the top 50 in the province!
But the poor students were so angry that Du Feiyang complained: "If you have the guts, come and compete with us in horseback riding, walking, archery, diving, chess, calligraphy, painting, basketball, soccer, softball, rugby?"
When Lan Xin saw the inflated slogans online that prevented their students from receiving scholarships, she felt angry and anxious, and even became incoherent.
Lan Xin thought about the strong performance of Super No. 4 Middle School in college entrance examinations over the years and couldn't help but shudder.
It seems like getting the top 30 spots is something they can do with just a wave of their hands.
Oh, why does Yude Middle School have to be interfered with by others when it comes to getting a scholarship?
The school directors were so generous as to give out generous scholarships, but the top students in their school can only smell the meat?
Isn’t this too miserable?
Lan Xin saw Zhou Xiu's confused look, so she handed her phone to Zhou Xiu and encouraged her:
"Xiu Xiu must also focus on winning first prize!"
"Our school's bonuses must be distributed generously!"
Zhou Xiu swiped the screen of her phone with her thumb and saw the slogans of students from other schools. She quickly closed the page.
Zhou Xiu did not feel offended as Lan Xin did. She just thought that it was too early for the student from another school to say such things. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he got slapped in the face in the future?
Zhou Xiu said: "It's nothing, don't mind it."
"The exam has not started yet, everything is unknown."
What the poor students admire most about Zhou Xiu is that she is always calm, but always rises suddenly when no one notices her.
She is always confident in herself.
The students in Class 24 suddenly fell silent.
Yu Qingyan asked Zhou Xiu: "Why is Xiuxiu always so confident?"
Zhou Xiu was stunned for a moment. She looked at Yu Qingyan and said, "Solid efforts can indeed give people confidence."
Zhou Xiu took the opportunity to take out the college entrance examination registration intention form given by her homeroom teacher and shook it. She worked hard to help her class teacher promote the college entrance examination:
"So...would you like to try to believe in yourself?"
When applying to study abroad, some countries do not require college entrance examination scores, but regular academic performance is required. This is also the reason why the students in Class 24 hate studying but have to take part in exams of all sizes.
But their grades in the first year of high school were too bad, with an average score of less than 80 points, so it might be difficult for them to apply to good schools.
Taking the college entrance examination can to a certain extent "help the seedlings grow faster".
Zhou Xiu believes that the students in the class are all quite talented and can quickly improve their scores just by looking at the review materials. Although they are poor students, their thinking style is good and not rigid because they received a good education since childhood.
It's just a lack of effort.
Many of them are born standing at the end of others, so they don’t understand the meaning of hard work. With just a little effort, their excellent family background will be a help.
Any tutor you hire is a top-grade teacher, and the teachers you learn English from are experienced foreign teachers. How many students can have such conditions?
The poor students were stunned and couldn't help but hold their foreheads. There are many students in the class who do not want to take the college entrance examination. The exams every month are already enough to make people anxious, and they also have rich and interesting elective courses.
Why waste your best years of youth on the college entrance examination?
But this time, a surge of blood really rushed to my head. Isn’t it just a college entrance examination? How difficult can it be? Millions of candidates can take the exam every year, but they can’t?
"Fuck it!"
"It's just a first-class one, I can just find a few more tutors."
"All the people from the Winners class next door have joined in, so we can't fall behind!"
They also want to fight for the school and defend the school's honor, and when they work hard... they are no worse than others.
The author has something to say:
Small theater:
Top students from other schools: sky-high scholarships?
That has to be paid out to be called a "sky-high price"
later--
Zhou Xiu, who received a lot of scholarships, bowed and said: "Thank you for your help"
"Thank you for letting me go."
"Thank you for not fighting or competing"
The top students from other schools: "..."
Who the hell let you go?
