Rebirth of the Rich Second Generation's Growth Diary

Chapter 127 Is your school big?

September, it’s September again, and it’s time for school to officially start.

This was naturally not Li Xu's first time at this school.

Before taking the college entrance examination, he had already been here for several months and even became familiar with many teachers.

But the situation today is a little different. Today his father personally sent him here.

To be precise, Tang Rui and Li Yuqian sent him here together.

The three of them stood at the gate of Peking University and Tsinghua University, and the two middle-aged men sighed from time to time.

Tang Rui said, "Old Li, now you have accomplished everything you have accomplished. Your son has done a great job, and you will have someone to carry on your legacy.

After all, unlike those who can't get into a prestigious university in China and try to get a diploma abroad, being able to enter here means you are definitely a rare talent."

Although Li Yuqian was very happy inside, he still had a calm expression and said, "It mainly depends on him."

Tang Rui was really moved and a little envious.

He spoke slowly: “To be honest, for our generation, opportunities are very important.

In the tide of the times, he seized the opportunity with courage, took advantage of the situation, and mastered a large amount of social resources.

But if we really compare ourselves with the graduates of these prestigious universities, we are not as good as them in many aspects.”

Tang Rui's words came from the bottom of his heart. He felt that a company must keep pace with the times. The tide of the times is rolling forward and there is no time to wait. If you are not careful, you will fall behind the times.

Over the years, professional managers have put forward many concepts, and these bosses are finding it increasingly difficult to keep up with these ideas.

The times always need young people.

Li Xu watched with amusement as the two middle-aged men sighed repeatedly at the school gate. He smiled and said, "Don't you want to see what Peking University and Tsinghua University look like inside? Let's go in."

This time, Li Yuqian specially sent him here.

Last time, when I came here as an auditor, my dad didn’t take me so seriously.

It was obvious that my dad wanted to take advantage of the start of school to come here and show off.

As for Uncle Tang Rui, he came over because Tang Qiaoning's university was also in the capital.

After all, it is the best university in the country, and everyone wants to witness the elegance of this century-old prestigious school with their own eyes.

The three of them first sent Tang Qiaoning away. Tang Qiaoning's university was not far from here, and it only took about ten minutes to get there by bike.

Tang Qiaoning was studying at Capital University of Foreign Studies. She was already very good at English, and this time she majored in a minor language.

As soon as you enter the campus, you can see the sophomore and junior volunteer seniors warmly welcoming the new students.

Most of the new students are sent by their parents, so you can tell at a glance which are new students and which are old students.

As soon as Li Xu walked into the school gate, several senior students came over and greeted him enthusiastically.

The senior students who usually participate in volunteer work are often more extroverted. They asked Li Xu for his contact information without paying attention to others, saying, "Classmate, can you add me on QQ?"

In this era, QQ is still the mainstream social tool. WeChat is just starting out and has not even launched the QR code scanning function.

Mobile payment, which later became popular, had not yet entered the public eye at this time.

There are rental bicycles at fixed locations in the school, and the bicycle locks are unlocked by paying cash.

There are many such points distributed throughout the school. Ride to the next point and lock the bike.

This type of rental bicycle, which Li Xu thinks is extremely backward, will soon be replaced by shared bicycles, but at present it is a travel method that many people like.

There is also Meituan Takeout and Ele.me, but nothing.

An older classmate brought him a few flyers, which were menus from several restaurants. Below them was a line saying "Order food and have it delivered to your dormitory." Simply put, it meant ordering takeout by phone.

Li Xu felt everything about this era and felt that this was a truly wonderful era with opportunities and business opportunities everywhere.

The two middle-aged men naturally didn't have much feeling about these things. Seeing Li Xu in a daze, Tang Rui smiled and said, "Xiao Xu, you have been in this school for quite a long time, haven't you?"

Li Xu shook his head and said, "It's different."

The three of them walked slowly towards the registration place. Along the way, Tang Rui and Li Yuqian looked around.

The three of them walked around and then went into a small teahouse on campus and sat down.

After a moment, Tang Rui asked, "Xiao Xu, how do you plan to spend your college life? Do you have any goals?"

Speaking of this issue, Li Xu really fell into deep thought for a while.

First of all, my ultimate goal of entering this university is clear and precise, which is to improve my abilities and lay a solid foundation for taking over my father's company in the next step.

This is a big proposition, and to achieve the goal, we have to look at it in detail.

The first step in improving one’s abilities is professional ability.

This is actually not complicated. Just attend classes step by step, especially those professional courses, and you will naturally make corresponding progress.

At the same time, most of the teachers in the school's School of Management have their own companies and conduct advanced academic exchanges from time to time.

In short, you can hear very advanced concepts, and over time, you can acquire this professional ability imperceptibly.

But professional ability alone is not enough.

Li Xu's wish is to make good use of the resources of this university so that he can truly possess the leadership ability to helm a company.

I already knew when I was auditing classes at this university that there are many entrepreneurial competitions on campus. Some of the competitions are of extremely high standards, and the judges are either well-known bosses or bigwigs from CCTV or the system.

With the experience of independently leading the team to participate in the scientific research competition last time, Li Xu already has the ability in this area, but he knows that this is not enough.

This kind of entrepreneurial competition in the university can further hone your abilities in this area, allowing you to truly experience the complete process of starting from scratch and even independently steering a business.

Therefore, the next goal gradually became clear.

Li Xu's idea was to study professional knowledge seriously and conscientiously during his freshman year. After about a year of precipitation, when he was in his sophomore year, Xia Xiaohe also entered university, and his other friends, such as Lei Yinbing and Ye Ruida, also spent about a year in school.

When the time comes, sign up for the entrepreneurship competition led by CCTV.

In addition to building a team from scratch and bringing the project to fruition bit by bit, you will also experience a business war that is close to reality in the process.

With all this experience, when you graduate from university and truly step into the business world, that will be the time for you to show your talents.

Of course, it’s too early to think about this right now.

Tang Rui's words made him fall into deep thought.

However, Li Xu did not intend to express these thoughts.

He smiled and said, "Now I am still a student, so of course I have to do my job well as a student first."

As if he felt that this statement was not complete, he added: "Study..."

Tang Rui looked at Li Xu's seemingly innocent expression and smiled meaningfully: "Little boy, are you so dishonest with your Uncle Tang now?"

He tapped his fingers on the table. "You're going to study seriously during these four years of college? I don't believe it."

"After all, he was the one who caused such a big commotion when he was just a high school graduate."

Tang Rui picked up his teacup and took a sip. "Even CCTV has reported on your deeds."

"I came to Peking University and Tsinghua University, where the platform is broader and the resources are richer..."

He drawled out his words meaningfully: "If Li Xu doesn't make some noise, who would believe it if I told others about it?"

Li Yuqian suddenly burst into laughter: "How can you talk to a junior like that?"

He patted his son's shoulder, but there was an unpredictable light in his eyes.

Tang Rui crossed his arms and said, "What do you mean by junior or not? If you ask me..."

He tapped his fingers on the table twice: "In three years at most, your son will become my business partner."

Hearing this, Li Yuqian picked up the teacup without comment.

His eyes flickered slightly, and his slender fingers slowly stroked the rim of the cup, wondering what he was thinking.

During the conversation, Tang Rui sighed with emotion: "I really envy you..." He looked at the leaves floating in the tea soup: "Now there is someone to take over."

"Unlike me..." Li Xu interrupted her before she could finish her words: "Qiao Ning is also very good!"

Tang Rui's eyes suddenly became sharp as he looked at the young man: "She is a girl after all."

He put down his teacup with a crisp clatter. "I never intended for her to take over the group's business."

Li Xu had heard this from Tang Qiaoning a long time ago.

The last time this topic was brought up, Tang Qiaoning angrily announced, "I'm running away from home."

Thinking of this, Li Xu felt a little emotional.

Perhaps the stronger the control, the more intense Tang Qiaoning's rebellious mentality will become.

"What on earth did that Qiao Ning do to you?" Li Yuqian suddenly interrupted, "What made you so distrustful of her abilities?"

This question left Tang Rui speechless for a moment.

After all, Tang Qiaoning is only an eighteen-year-old girl, and it is obviously too early to make conclusions about her abilities.

Ultimately, this distrust stems more from the inherent prejudice against female heirs.

The conversation between the two middle-aged men paused temporarily in the rising steam of hot tea.

They didn't stay in Li Xu's school for long.

For them, time is as precious as flowing gold.

What's more, the independence demonstrated by Li Xu is reassuring enough.

After leaving the teahouse, Li Yuqian held up his mobile phone to record every corner of the campus.

He specifically asked Tang Rui to take a photo of them father and son.

After seeing off the two elders, Li Xu immediately called Ye Ruida and An Duoduo.

The warm spring sun filtered through the branches and leaves of the camphor tree, casting tiny spots of light between his fingers holding the phone.

Today, Ye Ruida’s resume is perfect.

He was admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University in his second year of high school, so choosing computer science as his major in college seemed natural.

After experiencing the baptism of that scientific research competition, his career plan became extremely clear.

To become a top back-end algorithm engineer - this goal is as precise and determined as the way he solves math problems.

An Duoduo entered the school as a special swimming student.

Although Xue Xue and Lei Yinbing were not able to study together at Peking University or Tsinghua University, they also entered Capital University of Information Science and Technology, which is only a dozen minutes' drive away from here.

The two majors they chose are undoubtedly a continuation of their roles in previous scientific research competitions.

As dusk fell, three young figures were reflected in the glass windows of the cafe.

As soon as we met, An Duoduo excitedly shared what she had seen and heard about the school: "You have no idea, the swimming pool here is so big and amazing!"

To her, everything here was extremely new.

However, what made her happiest was what she said to Li Xu at this moment: "Li Xu, now we are going to be desk mates again."

Li Xu smiled dumbly, and of course he still remembered when An Duoduo asked him in his senior year of high school, "Do you like being my deskmate?"

Now, An Duoduo has chosen the same major as him, and it is a very simple thing for them to be deskmates in college - because there is no fixed classroom, they can sit wherever they want.

The three chatted for a while, and Ye Ruida asked, "What are your plans for the next step?"

Facing Ye Ruida and An Duoduo, Li Xu naturally would not hide anything like he did when facing his father and Uncle Tang.

Li Xu thought for a moment and said, "During our freshman year, our main task is of course to study. In fact, if you concentrate on studying, the professional courses in four years of college are not that much, and one or two years is more than enough to learn them all. If there is anything worthwhile to do during this process, I will contact you."

He paused, a cunning glint in his eyes: "Our goal is clear, we must not be mediocre here, of course we have to make some noise."

An Duoduo was naturally acquainted with Ye Ruida and the others. After all, she had often visited the lab during previous scientific research competitions. However, this was her first time officially participating as a team member, and she was immediately very excited. She said to Li Xu earnestly, "What task are you going to give me?"

Li Xu smiled and said, "You want to ask what role you plan to play in the team?"

An Duoduo nodded.

Li Xu stroked his chin and thought carefully for a moment before saying, "You and I studied the same major, so it must be management tasks. But we're college students now, so we don't have that many systematic tasks. If anything comes up in the future, just follow their instructions."

Li Xu looked at his watch from time to time. Ye Ruida asked, "What are you looking at?"

Li Xu said, "Tang Qiaoning said she wanted to come see me and visit Peking University and Tsinghua University."

Hearing Tang Qiaoning's name, An Duoduo blinked and asked, "By the way, she is at Capital University of Foreign Studies, right?"

Li Xu nodded and said, "Today is also her first day to sign up."

About ten minutes later, Tang Qiaoning called and said, "I'm already at the school gate." Li Xu smiled, stood up and said, "Let's go pick her up."

It takes about twenty minutes to walk from this cafe to the school gate.

Cars drove past the school from time to time, and Li Xu thought to himself that maybe he should buy a car for the school. The school was very big, and having a car would be much more convenient.

Soon, the three of them met Tang Qiaoning at the school gate. At this moment, Li Xu noticed that Tang Qiaoning's face was not very good. She frowned and was angry. She squatted on the steps beside her, fiddling with the hem of her skirt.

Li Xu walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Qiaoning raised her head and said unhappily, "I bought a fake."

Ye Ruida asked curiously: "What fake? A skirt?"

Li Xu's eyes noticed the oil stains on the hem of the skirt.

Then, his eyes naturally fell on the manual in Tang Qiaoning's hand.

As if noticing Li Xu's gaze, Tang Qiaoning gave a wry smile, spread out the handbook, and said, "Oh, it's all my dad's fault. He insisted that freshmen buy a copy of this."

An Duoduo asked curiously, "What is this?"

Tang Qiaoning's eyes flickered as she looked An Duoduo up and down.

An Duoduo is a little taller than her, and her quiet temperament reveals a vigorous vitality.

Tang Qiaoning said, "It's the freshman orientation brochure. When I signed up, my dad was tricked into buying it by some sophomores and juniors."

Li Xu remembered this incident. The freshman handbook was made by the students themselves, ninety-eight copies per book.

It is said that it contains a detailed map of the school, as well as some important matters and dates of important matters, etc.

Tang Qiaoning sighed and said, "I told my dad 'don't buy it, don't buy it', but he didn't listen. As a result, the printing ink on it hasn't even dried yet, and my skirt has been stained. That's not the most infuriating thing."

She blinked, looked at Li Xu and said, "I just ran into a sophomore. When she saw I bought this manual, she sighed and said, 'Another junior who got scammed.' I found out that a lot of the information in this manual is wrong. This version is three years old."

She pulled out the ink-stained hem of her skirt again. "Not only are the two newly built buildings not marked on the map, but the club's recruitment schedule is also wrong."

He suddenly stood up and looked around, "By the way, is there a trash can nearby?"

Li Xu's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, let me take a look at this manual first."

Tang Qiaoning handed the manual to Li Xu with a strange look on her face and said, "What do you want this for?"

Li Xu casually flipped through the pages and said, "We don't have this kind of deceptive stuff at Peking University... I'm curious."

Tang Qiaoning felt even more heartbroken and scolded with a smile, "You're so annoying."

When An Duoduo heard this, her eyes flickered slightly.

Li Xuze carefully flipped through the manual, and as he turned the pages, his eyes gradually became interested.

After a long moment, he closed the manual, smiled, and said, "School has just started, so everyone's still short of things to do, right? So, to help our little team get together smoothly, how about we work on a little project these few days and have some fun?"

Ye Ruida suddenly realized that Li Xu had an idea. He looked at the booklet with some surprise, then looked at Tang Qiaoning, wondering how Li Xu could get such inspiration from such a small thing.

An Duoduo said excitedly: "Okay, what should we do?"

Li Xu looked at Tang Qiaoning and said, "Is your school big?"
