Chapter 431 Which of these two mops is unappreciated for its talent?
September 26, 1984, Wednesday, sunny, maximum temperature 27 degrees.
"Li Ye, I have organized everything! This Sunday our two classes will go to visit Xiangshan together."
“Mmm~”
"Don't be busy again! Everyone is counting on you to be the accompanying photographer! When the time comes, bring your camera over and use it. Just take the camera."
"Hmm~"
“.”
Inside the classroom, the class monitor Zhen Rongrong was explaining something to Li Ye in all seriousness, but Li Ye was fiddling with a radio, constantly adjusting the receiving channel. He just responded to Zhen Rongrong's instructions absentmindedly with "umm" and "oh".
Zhen Rongrong's mood changed obviously. Her chest rose and fell violently several times, and then she suddenly raised her voice.
"I'm discussing something with you! Can you be more serious? Is a broken radio so attractive?"
“.”
Li Ye was stunned by Zhen Rongrong's sudden outburst. He raised his head and looked at Zhen Rongrong, whose emotions were obviously fluctuating, and suddenly seemed to realize something.
For more than two years, class monitor Zhen Rongrong has always been nice to Li Ye, especially in the first half year after school, when Li Ye was somewhat "eccentric" and caused dissatisfaction among some classmates, but Zhen Rongrong always supported Li Ye.
By now, the two can be said to be quite familiar with each other, and they occasionally joke around, almost like old friends.
But now thinking about it, it seems that Zhen Rongrong has always kept a sufficient distance from other boys, and her attitude towards Li Ye is indeed somewhat different.
Especially He Dazhuang, who has been "showing off his talents" in front of Zhen Rongrong since he entered school, but Zhen Rongrong just ignored him.
However, Zhen Rongrong always claimed that "study is the most important thing" and politely rejected many suitors, so Li Ye really didn't think about it that way.
But at this moment, Li Ye carefully observed Zhen Rongrong's eyes for the first time, and found a hidden strangeness in her eyes.
Zhen Rongrong was also a little flustered, because Li Ye had always been very polite. He didn't stare at her like some of his classmates did, and he certainly didn't look directly into her eyes like he did now.
So Zhen Rongrong hurriedly explained, "We will be seniors next year, and everyone will definitely be busier. This may be the last time we climb Xiangshan Mountain together to see the red leaves. Can you be serious?"
Li Ye nodded and said, "I will. I will take more photos at that time. Anyone who wants to take photos with good friends can take photos individually as a souvenir. I have a lot of film at home."
"You don't need to prepare the film. I'll ask Xiao Ling to use the class funds to buy some. Take as many pictures as you can and leave a souvenir for everyone."
Zhen Rongrong waved her hand, magnanimously exercising her rights as class monitor and calming the ripples in her heart.
Li Ye had been taken since she entered school, so Zhen Rongrong knew from the beginning that she was a "flower-watcher", and she easily suppressed any improper thoughts she had.
At this moment, a voice came from the radio in Li Ye's hand.
"Now playing a news brief. Our delegation leader Zhou Nan and British Ambassador Richard Evans signed a joint statement on the Hong Kong issue."
“.”
“Huh~”
Li Ye let out a breath lightly.
The course of history has not changed. After two years of difficult negotiations, Britain finally bowed its head in front of the Eastern giant and signed the joint statement today.
Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhen Rongrong widened her eyes, and the other people in the classroom also gathered around in surprise.
"What was said on the radio just now? What agreement was signed? Is Hong Kong Island going to be returned to China?"
Li Ye smiled and nodded, "Yes, although we have only signed the statement in draft form, there will definitely be a grand ceremony to officially release the statement, so we still need some time to prepare."
In another timeline, the formal signing of this joint declaration was very grand, with hundreds of people from all walks of life from Hong Kong alone attending the ceremony.
Then Pei Wencong should be one of them, right?
“Oh~~”
Suddenly cheers broke out in the classroom, and several people jumped up excitedly.
"Great! I never expected that the negotiation would actually be successful."
"I am so happy. Today is a day worth remembering."
"It is definitely worth commemorating. Now that Hong Kong Island has returned, and Macau and the Straits are also here, unification is just around the corner."
"I'll tell other students. Everyone should know this news."
“.”
Li Ye watched his classmates in the classroom rushing excitedly to other classes, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. The college students of this era are still different from those of later generations.
They are more frank, more enthusiastic, and have a stronger desire for a better life in the future.
The release of the joint statement followed the timeline in Li Ye's memory, but changed Zhen Rongrong's autumn outing plan.
Because this Sunday is already September 30th, everyone suddenly felt that they should prepare well for the National Day parade the next day.
Then, the Economics Department's tour to Xiangshan, a collective activity with a strong individual character, would inevitably fail.
After feeling a little disappointed, Zhen Rongrong began to prepare for the National Day parade seriously.
We bought red paper and small sticks and each student made a small red flag. We also clearly warned several students in the class that they must wash their clothes and shoes clean on October 1st and must not look sloppy at all.
But when a neatly made small red flag was handed to Li Ye, Li Ye shook his head helplessly and said that he could not participate in this year's National Day parade.
Because on October 1st of this year, Li Ye’s sister Li Yue is getting married.
Although weddings and funerals are private matters, they are still more important than the National Day parade. So Zhen Rongrong could only nod to Li Ye in disappointment and go back to making small red flags.
But the small red flag, which was obviously well-made, was still placed on Li Ye's desk.
Maybe what Zhen Rongrong said, "We'll see each other again after graduation," was spoken from the heart!
Several thoughts flashed through Li Ye's mind, wondering whether he should give Zhen Rongrong some advice on making a big banner or something.
But then I thought about it and decided to forget it. His cheating was already amazing enough, so it would be better not to take away other people's luck if it wasn't necessary.
However, Li Ye still went to the dormitory of the Biology Department on the afternoon of September 30th, hoping to identify which mop would create the famous scene in tomorrow's parade.
But no matter how you look at it, every mop is dusty and ugly.
Just look at these mops, which one is the one with unappreciated talent and which one is just mediocre?
[Perhaps everyone's life is like this. Originally, they were just ordinary talents, but due to fate, they were pushed to a certain point, and then they were forced to have the highlight moment of their life. ]
In his previous life, Li Ye had looked up the three biology students holding banners, but there was no separate entry for them on Baidu. Compared with many students in the economics department, they were much more low-key.
Perhaps they themselves would not have thought that the most glorious moment in their life would be that moment tomorrow.
There were actually many famous scenes during the National Day in 1984, such as a farmer driving a tractor through the square with a big sign on it that read "Contracting Remuneration to Output is Good";
Another example is that after many years, the mainland resumed its armed military parade for the first time, creating what is recognized as the strongest spear-splitting style in history. That sea of bayonets is still so shocking even after decades.
But the most classic and eye-catching one is still the one made of two mops and a strip of cloth.
