"No, Youfu, you mean you heard the news that Yunyun won the award from the radio?" Wu Guixiang's head was buzzing.
"Yes, that's what I mean." Qin Youfu nodded vigorously.
Wow, the Su family members looked at each other with the same expression of disbelief.
They knew that Yunyun was going to participate in the competition, but they didn't know that this competition was so important and would be broadcast nationwide. My God, they couldn't even imagine it.
"Then what else did you say? Did you say when they would be back?" Wu Guixiang asked.
Qin Youfu shook his head. "Why would the radio say this? But the game is over, so we should be back, right?"
"Auntie, Yunyun won such a big award. I think she'll be commended again. Someone from home might come over. You guys have to be ready to welcome them."
"Ah... okay." Wu Guixiang nodded blankly.
"I'm here just to tell you. Just get it. I'll go back first." Qin Youfu said.
"Good, blessed, take care."
After Qin Youfu left, the Su family lost their appetite and were only thinking about this matter.
Did the whole country know about this? How much merit did the Su family have to have to give birth to a child like Yunyun?
"Bring honor to our family, bring honor to our family." Su Dalin was so excited that his pipe was shaking.
It is indeed an honor to the family. In the past, they would never have imagined that their family would be where they are today.
Wu Guixiang thought for a moment and said to Aiguo, "Aiguo, when you go to town tomorrow to send the telegram, ask about the situation. Is this true? And when will Yunyun and the others be back?"
"Okay, Mom, I understand."
"Write simply. Telegrams are expensive, and they charge by the word. Just make sure people can understand it."
Su Aiguo nodded, "Okay."
He went to town early the next morning, so Su Qingyun and others received the telegram from home.
Su Aimin also sent a telegram back to his family, telling them the time he would return so that they could rest assured.
Qin Ying had almost finished practicing her speech, and after rehearsing it at the venue of the commendation meeting, she was almost done.
On the second day, a grand commendation meeting was held as scheduled in a venue in Beijing. Many people came, including students and teachers from all walks of life and units, as well as some schools. The entire venue was packed. Even many important leaders who could only be seen in the news were present.
The first row is where the leaders sit. Su Qingyun and his family sit in the second row, next to Li Siyuan and others, and they are also very close to the stage.
The Wu family also came today, and many people from the compound also came to the commendation meeting. There were also many media reporters on the scene.
A red banner with yellow characters was hung on the stage, reading "A Commendation Meeting for the Chinese Team Winners of the 15th National Mathematics Competition"
The commendation meeting was hosted by a famous announcer who was often heard on the radio. She had a slender figure, wore a well-fitting long dress, and walked onto the stage with a smile on her face.
After scanning the entire audience, she stood in front of the microphone and started the show with a voice as clear as a cuckoo.
"Hello, comrades, students, teachers, and leaders from all walks of life, organizations, and schools! I am today's host, Li Baihua. I am very happy to stand on this stage and preside over this commendation ceremony for you all."
She paused, and immediately there was warm applause from the audience.
Li Baihua continued, "To commend the Chinese delegation for their outstanding performance in this international mathematics competition, this commendation meeting will be divided into the following sections: first, speeches by leaders; second, a commendation ceremony; third, speeches by the winners and parent representatives; and fourth, closing remarks by leaders. There will also be song and dance performances throughout the various sections, so please stay tuned."
"Now we'll proceed to the first agenda item. Leaders, please give your speeches. First, we welcome Director Feng Ruhui of the Beijing Research Institute!"
Amidst warm applause, Director Feng, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, walked onto the stage with a smile that he couldn't hide.
"Comrades and leaders, hello! I'm Feng Ruhui, Director of the Beijing Institute. I'm deeply honored to be here. At the just-concluded 15th International Mathematics Competition, the Chinese team, selected by our institute's mathematics talent group, led by Director Yu Qi, won the team championship."
"Please allow me to solemnly introduce their names: Su Qingyun, Chen Zheyu, Li Siyuan, Mu Qiu, and Chen Ru. Among them, contestant Su Qingyun won first prize in the individual award with a perfect score. I hope everyone in the audience will join me in giving them the warmest applause."
Director Feng led the applause, and after the applause stopped, he continued.
"This competition result is the result of the hard work and unremitting perseverance of every member of our team and coach. This is not only an honor for them personally, but also an honor for our Jingcheng Institute and the Chinese mathematics community. We should be proud of them!"
"This achievement has changed the international mathematical community's view of Chinese mathematics, forcing everyone to recognize that Chinese mathematics cannot be ignored. It is also a powerful spiritual encouragement for our Chinese mathematical community and even the scientific community! It has made everyone understand that persistence and passion can really achieve things that they thought were impossible. I hope everyone can learn from them, work hard on the path they choose, and achieve excellent results!"
"Thank you everyone, that's all for my speech."
Director Feng bowed slightly and then left the stage.
"Next, let us welcome Mr. Zhang Huaizhi, President of Huaqing University, to the stage for a speech."
Mr. Zhang Huaizhi? Everyone was a little surprised. Mr. Zhang is here too?
Mr. Zhang, dressed in a black gown, walked onto the stage. He had an elegant temperament and dignified manners. He faced the crowd and spoke in a deep voice, his voice carrying the weight of time.
"Hello everyone, I'm Zhang Huaizhi."
As soon as Zhang Huaizhi said his first sentence, there was an extremely excited and warm applause from the audience, and countless pairs of admiring eyes looked at him, which was enough to show Zhang Huaizhi's influence among the people.
Zhang Huaizhi smiled and said, "I am very happy to be standing here today, not only because these young people have achieved great results for our country's mathematics community, but also because I see that more and more talents have emerged in our country and have embarked on the path of striving for national development. This is a blessing for our country and even more so for our people."
"Among these five contestants, there is one person who left a deep impression on me."
The people in the audience were a little surprised. Could it be that among these five people, there was someone Mr. Zhang knew?
