In 1978, I was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 164: The top student performed poorly in the college entrance examination? Director Xie is a bit arrogant
"Xie Wei, how about you take a few days off?"

Du Guowang stopped Xie Wei who was about to leave. He looked exhausted as he hadn't been home for a week.

Even if home is not far from the school.

"Ok?"

The CNC system is about to be tested. At this critical moment, does Du Guowang let himself take a rest?
Xie Wei was a little overwhelmed to react for a moment.

"Xie Rou is going to report to the school. Logically, she should come here after the college entrance examination... Your master's wife has a more urgent project at hand, so she doesn't have time to go to Rongcheng to pick her up, and I can't leave either."

Du Guowang said tiredly.

"what?"

Xie Wei then realized that he had been so busy every day that he had forgotten about time.

"No need to pick her up, my dad should be able to send her here when he has time."

Xie Wei never thought that Xie Rou would come to school alone.

From Chengdu to Harbin, there was only one bus change, which was still not reassuring for 14-year-old Xie Rou, even though she had followed Xie Jianguo to Harbin and back before.

"Not only to pick her up, I think we need to find a company in Chengdu to cooperate with our CNC system and PLC."

Du Guowang expressed his thoughts.

What?
This time, Xie Wei looked at Du Guowang with surprise in his eyes.

The western development will still take several decades. Although Chengdu is the provincial capital, its economy and industrial base are not as good as those of the neighboring mountain city.

Du Guowang suddenly proposed to deploy a CNC system in Chengdu?

"Also, although the number of students admitted to the school in Bashu Province this year is not large, your alma mater Dongjiao Middle School, in addition to Xie Rou, has 8 students admitted to our Harbin Institute of Technology... Xie Wei, you don't want to stay in the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, and Xie Rou has not yet decided on a direction, so we can't make the decision. You have to get some seeds for our Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, right?"

Including Xie Rou, 9 students from Dongjiao Middle School were admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology?
This news surprised Xie Wei again.

The best schools in Chengdu are No. 4, No. 7 and No. 9 middle schools, and Dongjiao Middle School is not even ranked.

Even if there is an information gap, Harbin Institute of Technology has a limited number of enrollment quotas in Bashu and the admission score is not low, so it is unlikely that so many students from Dongjiao Middle School would be admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology.

For schools with a profound historical heritage like No. 479 Middle School, there should be no information gap.

"Surprising, right? The school was also surprised. The school with the most applicants in Chengdu this time was Dongjiao Middle School, with more than 40 applicants. Their college entrance examination scores were not bad. If it weren't for the small number of places given by Bashu Province, more people would have been admitted..."

Xie Wei had no idea that when Professor Hou Guohua went to the school to find Xie Rou, Xie Wei's father Xie Jianguo boasted about Harbin Institute of Technology, which left an indelible impression on Jiang Hongbo, the principal of Dongjiao Middle School, and that he had set up a "Harbin Institute of Technology sprint class" to select top students in the school.

Harbin Institute of Technology also doesn’t know.

"These are not the main things. The main thing is Xie Rou's grades..."

"Xie Rou's grades?"

Xie Wei frowned.

What he was least worried about was Xie Rou's grades.

Although it is the third year since the resumption of the college entrance examination, the college entrance examination has gradually become formalized, but because the candidates have a poor foundation, it is not a problem at all for a real academic master like Xie Rou.

The school leaders did not move, and neither did the admissions office staff.

He probably wasn't worried about Xie Rou being snatched away.

"369 points."

"What the hell?"

Xie Wei thought he had heard wrongly.

He hadn't seen the college entrance examination papers of 79, but he still remembered the papers of 78 clearly. Even if the difficulty had increased a bit, with Xie Rou's foundation, it shouldn't have been so low.

"If you don't know the situation, with the number of schools in Bashu Province, she won't be able to get in with her score. Although the score line in Bashu Province is relatively low..."

A bitter look appeared on Du Guowang's face.

Xie Wei was even more surprised.

It suddenly occurred to me that the old man hadn't sent a telegram in such a long time...

"Okay, I'll go back."

Although the sample test of the CNC system is about to begin, Xie Wei thought about it and decided that whether he was there or not, the results would have to wait until after the test.

Xie Rou's score was really beyond his expectation.

500 out of a total of 369 points was indeed not a low score, and he could be admitted to most schools in the country, but Xie Wei was worried that something had happened at home.

The next day, Xie Wei boarded the train back to Chengdu.

Harbin Institute of Technology has a special status in the entire Northeast. Even if train tickets are tight, they will not be a problem with the school's intervention.

Accompanying Xie Wei was Tan Heping, deputy director of the Admissions Office.

Because he was worried about something happening at home, Xie Wei didn't want to have a deep conversation with Tan Heping, especially since Tan Heping brought up Xie Rou's college entrance examination results as soon as they met.

Soon, Xie Wei returned to Chengdu.

"Xie Wei, this way!"

To Xie Wei's surprise, as soon as he got out of the train station, he saw Qin Bailin waving at him, with Xie Jianguo standing next to him.

The old man had a smile on his face and didn't look like anything was wrong at all.

"Director Tan, are there any arrangements at the school?"

"I've contacted the relevant authorities here, and they've arranged for someone to pick you up. You go first, and I'll come find you when the time comes."

Tan Heping knew that Xie Wei would definitely have other work to do when he returned, so he simply refused to go with Xie Wei.

Xie Wei didn't force it and walked straight towards Xie Jianguo.

"Hey, changed cars?"

Xie Wei followed him to the square in front of the station and looked for the 212 jeep from the Hongguang Factory, but he didn't see it at all.

Qin Bailin pulled open a car next to him that had a golden deer logo on its front.

GAZ-24!

Xie Wei couldn't help but be surprised.

"This car is too high-profile. The Industrial Bureau insisted on allocating this car to me, saying that our Hongguang Factory is a pilot unit that earns foreign exchange, and we need to look presentable when we go out to negotiate business with foreign businessmen..."

Xie Jianguo said with a proud look on his face.

It only took Director Xie one year to go from being rehired and riding the 212-bar bicycle left by his son to a Jeep, and then to the imported sedan that only senior leaders can ride.

Although he is just a factory manager.

But the factory can make money and earn foreign exchange!

"You don't know, our factory has been developing rapidly in the past year. Not only has it merged with the Hongfeng Factory, its scale has expanded fourfold, but we also have many other factories acting as spare parts suppliers for us..."

As soon as he got in the car, Xie Jianguo couldn't wait to introduce to his son the development of Hongguang Factory in that year.

Especially after the Canton Fair.

Xie Wei was not surprised that Hongguang Factory merged with Hongfeng Factory. At that time, there was a price war between pressure cookers and antimony pots, and a unit like Hongfeng Factory could not afford it at all.

"What happened to Xie Rou's college entrance exam?"

Xie Wei was not in the mood to find out about the development of Hongguang Factory. Any development was not surprising. During the two days on the train, he considered various situations that might cause Xie Rou to perform poorly in the college entrance examination, and then overturned them all.

A girl who is having her period and thinks she is going to die can still study "Engineering Cybernetics", unless she has a fever.

If I was really sick and nothing happened at home, the old man would definitely send me a telegram.

"What happened to her college entrance exam? Wasn't she doing pretty well?"

Xie Jianguo asked Xie Wei in surprise.

"You didn't ask him the score?"

"Anyway, she can definitely get into Harbin Institute of Technology. Why ask about the scores? You don't know that before the college entrance examination, Professor Hou from the University of Science and Technology of China came again and said that they could arrange a professional teacher for Xie Rou and add an aerospace major..."

Xie Jianguo looked at his son in confusion.

Although my son was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology, he was highly valued by the school leaders.

In Xie Jianguo's eyes, his daughter is more powerful than his son.

If you can't get into Harbin Institute of Technology, then take a step back and go to University of Science and Technology of China. The professors there have promised to open a major for Xie Rou, so what else do you want?
In this case, do we need to pay attention to our children’s college entrance examination scores?

"..."

I'm afraid the old man has expanded too much in the past six months.

"Brother Qin, please take me back. I won't go to the factory." Unable to get an answer from the old man, Xie Wei naturally didn't bother to go to the factory to discuss things first.

If anything happened to Xie Rou, it might have an impact on the development of the experimental class project at Harbin Institute of Technology. This was what Du Guowang revealed to Xie Wei. This was also the reason why the school leaders were worried and did not arrange for professors or teachers from the school to come, so they asked Xie Wei to come instead.

Qin Bailin turned his head and looked at Xie Jianguo.

When Xie Jianguo came to the train station to pick up Xie Wei, he had called together the middle and senior level leaders of the factory to attend a meeting with Xie Wei!

"Let's send him back first."

Without even a second thought, Xie Jianguo said, "Let them wait! Without my son, there would be no Hongguang Factory today, and there would be no good days when they could look up at the sky when they walked out of the house!"

"..."

Qin Bailin was speechless for a moment at Xie Jianguo's irresponsible words.

If the factory management or higher-ups knew about this...

Personal factionalism is unacceptable!

"What?"

"Nothing, you're back now, aren't you? I'll call the factory managers to meet with you and let them hear your plans for the factory's development."

"..."

Xie Wei stared at the old man blankly, "My organizational affiliations and everything are all at school!"

"You are a consultant of the factory and you are paid by the factory. Besides, how can I increase your salary if I don't give you a consultant title? You don't have to worry, this matter has been reported to the bureau and approved..."

Xie Jianguo blocked all of Xie Wei's rebuttals.

"Dad, the factory belongs to the country!"

Looking at the old man, Xie Wei now regretted very much that he had asked the old man to help him look after the factory when he went to school.

This old guy treats the Hongguang Factory as his own!
"I didn't say it's ours. Do you think the bureau leaders gave you a salary increase of 102 for nothing? As long as you give your nod, can't they give the technology to us? Wang Zheng always listens to you!"

"..."

Xie Wei really didn't know what to say.

From the very first moment I met him, I knew Wei Guobing was an old fox, and he had a plan!
The key point is that my father is not an easy person to deal with either.

Even though he knew that the middle and senior management of the factory were waiting, Xie Wei did not worry that those managers would change their minds because of dissatisfaction with the old man, and he went to the factory to hold a meeting for the leading cadres of Hongguang Factory.

If you really do this, you might end up digging a big hole for yourself.

If the old man is happy, just let him play.

Soon, Xie Wei returned to his home after leaving for a year.

The yard is still the same. Due to seasonal factors, except for the two boxes of green sweet potatoes, the rest of the land has been turned over, and the garlic sprouts and onions have just sprouted a few days ago.

"mom?"

Liu Mei was sitting under the eaves knitting a sweater when Xie Wei called her "Mom" at the gate of the yard.

His eyes couldn't help but feel a little moist.

"Didn't you say you'd be back in the evening?"

Liu Mei raised her head and saw her son. She was stunned for a while, then hurriedly put down the bamboo sticks and the half-knitted sweater in her hands and walked quickly towards Xie Wei.

When he was still three or two steps away from Xie Wei, he stopped and stared at Xie Wei, "Why have you lost so much weight? Didn't they say that the food in your school is very good?"

"Not skinny!"

Xie Wei was speechless.

"Thin!"

Liu Mei pinched Xie Wei's face and said firmly.

Without waiting for Xie Wei to refute, he said anxiously, "You take a rest first, I'll go cook."

"Jianguo, my son is back. Kill the chicken quickly. There's water boiling on the stove..."

"..."

Both the father and son and Qin Bailin were embarrassed by Liu Mei and didn't know what to say.

"Brother, why are you back?"

Xie Rou, who had grown taller, jumped out of the room. Her face, which had become rounder after eating at Du Guowang's house, had become thinner again. What Xie Wei didn't expect was that Xie Rou was actually wearing glasses!

I am nearsighted.

Could this be the reason why she performed poorly in the college entrance examination?

"I'll come back and pick you up to go to school."

"What's your school's attitude? Two professors came to pick you up, but when you get to your sister's place, you're the only one who picks her up?"

Xie Jianguo was unhappy.

He thinks that Harbin Institute of Technology's behavior is unacceptable.

"That's right, why don't we go to USTC? Didn't you say it's too cold in the Northeast and you can't go out in winter..."

Liu Mei was no longer excited about her son's return.

Instead, he persuaded his daughter not to go to Harbin Institute of Technology.

"Mom, didn't I tell you that if I didn't do well in the exam, I won't be able to go to USTC!"

Xie Rou blinked at Xie Wei and said to Liu Mei with a disappointed look on her face.

"If you don't do well in the exam, just take it again. Didn't Professor Hou say that it's okay if you don't do well in the college entrance examination, as long as you do your school papers seriously..."

"I can't do it. Their school is too difficult. How about I study in high school for another year?"

"Then forget it..."

Liu Mei and Xie Jianguo said in unison.

Xie Wei felt something was wrong with the conversation between his parents and Xie Rou, while Qin Bailin was extremely embarrassed and couldn't get a word in.

"Brother Qin, why don't you go back and inform the people in the factory that there will be no meeting today."

Xie Wei thought that it would be better to send Qin Bailin away first before asking about this matter.

Qin Bailin looked at Xie Jianguo, and only said goodbye and left after Xie Jianguo nodded.

"Xiao Qin, come over for dinner later."

Liu Mei greeted Qin Bailin.

Qin Bailin simply made the excuse that he had something to do in the evening and left quickly without looking back.

"Son, it's just right that you're back. Please persuade your sister. The Northeast is covered with ice and snow. When the weather gets cold, you can't even go out. It's even further north than Ningguta, where the criminals were exiled during the Qing Dynasty. It's even colder there! It's okay for a boy like you to suffer, but Xie Rou, a girl, is in that cold and bitter place..."

When she said this, Liu Mei's eyes turned red.

"Yes! Xie Wei, please persuade her. USTC is much better than Northeast China. You just need to endure the hardship. There is no need to let your sister suffer as well..."

Dear parents!
Dear.

What do you mean it’s ok for the son to suffer, there’s no need to let his sister go?

"No, how does this involve Ningguta?"

Xie Wei was completely confused.

I am not a person who likes reading. There are no dramas with pigtails or romance novels now. I probably won’t read them, right?
"Don't worry about it. Just tell me if it's cold there in winter!"

Liu Mei gritted her teeth and asked Xie Wei.

It is clear that the attitude is to let the son suffer and not let the daughter suffer.

“I have a deep understanding of this.”

Xie Jianguo added.

"Dad, Mom, Professor Du and Professor Liang have recognized Xie Rou as their goddaughter!"

Xie Wei reminded the couple.

"You can't just find a godfather or godmother randomly and let my daughter suffer! I gave birth to the child and raised her, why should they let my daughter suffer?"

Liu Mei glared at Xie Wei, "You are also heartless! This is your biological sister who has the same father and mother as you!"

"..."
