Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 268 Discrimination is very serious

1 minute, 2 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes...

As time passed, Xiaolan's expression also changed again and again.

At the beginning, she looked very seriously, with a confident look.Then he slowly frowned, looking like he was thinking hard.In the end, she was obviously a little restless, with an annoyed, depressed and anxious look on her face.

Watson has been chatting with Niu Xiaoqiang all the time, and he wants to further narrow the distance with Niu Xiaoqiang in this way.

While chatting with him, Niu Xiaoqiang kept an eye on Xiaolan's situation. Seeing Xiaolan's embarrassing situation, he couldn't help but secretly smiled bitterly: "That's all right, how can I talk to Watson later? Xiaolan is really serious." , the questions and answers are in front of you, but you still can’t understand why your math grades are so poor?

Seeing that Niu Xiaoqiang was absent-minded, Watson soon realized what was going on.When he came to China this time, he met many people who asked him for help, including officials and rich people, and their purpose was very unified: let Watson serve as an introducer for their children to study abroad.

At the beginning, Watson didn't refuse face-to-face because of his affection. He even thought that since the other party dared to speak to him, it meant that their children should be excellent. Watson tested it patiently.

The results of the assessment almost didn't make Watson mad. The children of these people are all idiots, and the best grades are far from what he expected.Now Watson lost his good temper, and he sternly rejected everyone's request for help, even if the other party promised a lot of benefits, Watson did not lie.

As a professor at MIT, his annual salary is very high. In addition, he often helps some computer companies do some private work. His annual income is at least 40 million US dollars, and the highest annual income even exceeds 100 million US dollars.

Watson has long been a millionaire, and money is not very attractive to him.Coupled with his status as a professor, his social status is also very high, and he simply dismisses the benefits provided by those people.

Later, when he arrived in Qingjiang, Director Chen said he wanted to take him to make some friends. Watson knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. Awkward.If Niu Xiaoqiang hadn't just heard what Zhang Guangmao was calling, I'm afraid he and Watson wouldn't meet so soon.

Looking at Niu Xiaoqiang's expression, Watson knew that this kid probably wanted to help Xiaolan study abroad. In fact, he had long been suspicious of Xiaolan's appearance at the banquet.

It stands to reason that the people present at this kind of occasion are very prestigious people, and a girl like Xiaolan should not appear. Now that it has appeared, if Watson can't understand it, then he is too stupid.

He patted Niu Xiaoqiang on the shoulder with a half-smile: "Boy, do you have a not-so-simple purpose in meeting me?"

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't understand for a while, and said in a daze, "What's not so simple purpose?"

Watson pointed at Xiaolan Nunu: "She should be a female student, right? Let me guess, do you want to use my relationship to help her study abroad?"

Niu Xiaoqiang's expression seemed a little embarrassed: "As expected of a professor from a well-known university, he is really powerful. You have seen through my little thoughts, but what you said is not completely correct. I don't just want to ask for your help. I met you, besides asking for your help, I also want to study abroad."

Watson smiled and nodded: "That's good. If you really just want to ask me for help, I will be very disappointed."

When he said this, his face turned serious: "I'm more principled. If this female student meets my requirements, I don't mind helping her for your sake, but you can also see that she is not that kind at all." It’s not a piece of material, so I can only tell you with regret that I will not help you with this favor.”

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled wryly: "Professor, are you Americans always speaking so directly? Don't you take care of other people's faces?"

Watson shook his head: "It's not that Americans don't know how to socialize. We just don't like going around in circles like the Chinese. In the eyes of Americans, face is earned by yourself, not by others. I admire you for your strength. You respect you, but if you don't have that strength, then you can only stand aside."

Niu Xiaoqiang doesn't want to discuss with Watson the cultural differences between the two countries. Xiaolan's study abroad is the current focus.He thought about the wording, and then said: "Professor, Xiaolan doesn't have to go to MIT. Other universities are also acceptable. Her math scores are still far from your requirements, but they may meet the requirements of other schools. Regarding the admissions criteria, didn’t you say that you have rich network resources? Since that’s the case, I sincerely ask you to seriously consider it.”

Watson had a troubled expression on his face: "Xiaoqiang, there is a situation I have to tell you."

"what's the situation?"

"It's about international students. At present, international students from China are very sought-after. This is because Chinese international students are of high quality, not only smart, but also very hardworking. But they also have a very obvious shortcoming, that is, their thinking is somewhat rigid. Of course, since they are smart, most of them can make up for their shortcomings very quickly, but this is only for very bright students, it is too difficult for mediocre students, I mean you understand Is it white?"

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded: "I can understand. Are you saying that you are only optimistic about those outstanding Chinese students studying abroad, and you are not optimistic about ordinary Chinese students studying abroad?"

Watson nodded: "Yes, according to my estimation, it may be difficult for ordinary Chinese students to adapt to the environment there if they go to the United States. If they are smart, they will still be respected by others. If they are mediocre, they may suffer Serious discrimination."

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't understand the situation in the United States, so he couldn't help asking: "Are Americans very xenophobic?"

Watson sighed helplessly: "The United States itself is an immigrant country. It is not very xenophobic, but it values ​​race. At present, the majority of the British class in the United States are white people like me. Others All races are basically in the lower class of society, except for whites, other races will be discriminated against.”

Niu Xiaoqiang saw Watson's dignified expression and knew that the real situation was much more serious than what he said. He asked: "Is it difficult for the Chinese to live in the United States?"

"Well, although it's a pity, I still want to tell you that only a very small number of elites among Chinese people are respected, and the discrimination that other Chinese people suffer in the United States should be ranked second to last, only a little bit better than black people. "
