My winter break homework was exposed, and I, a vocational school student, am now being snapped up by

Lin Chen was completely bewildered when he saw this Weibo post.

He has only been in this world for a short time.

I've been so busy studying and running that I haven't really paid attention to the world outside of school.

Because of his family's financial situation, his old-fashioned phone couldn't even access Weibo, so he had never seen what the internet was like in this world.

Look at the description of this dish called Fang Zhouzi.

Turns out he's an independent scholar, a Weibo influencer with millions of followers...

Yes, they should be the same type of people as those online influencers and public intellectuals from my previous life.

But this big shot... I have no grudge against you, why are you messing with me?

Seeing that Lin Chen seemed to have finished reading, Lu Han complained from the side, "Old Lin, look at what this guy is saying."

They actually said you were a vocational school graduate, that's just too much...

“I used to attend a vocational school. Apart from the fact that his suspicion that I cheated was nonsense, he was right about everything else.”

"what?"

Lu Han was dumbfounded.

Other people nearby also gathered around.

"No way? Mr. Lin, you were a vocational school graduate?"

"My God, how could a vocational school student transfer to a high school?"

Hearing their words, Lu Han suddenly turned his head and glared at them:

"Watch what you're saying! You're all in the same class, haven't you seen for yourselves how good Lao Lin really is?"

With Lin's level of ability, why shouldn't he be allowed to go to high school?

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly apologized:

"Boss Lin, that's not what I meant..."

"Yes, Boss Lin, we're just wondering..."

Although some of them may have been jealous of Lin Chen in the past, Lu Han was right.

After these tests, everyone has witnessed Lin Chen's strength.

Even though he was a vocational school student before, he felt he was qualified to attend their No. 1 High School.

"fine."

Lin Chen waved his hand. Now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide anything anymore.

"What's wrong with being a vocational school student? I transferred to No. 1 High School because I was previously recommended for admission to Tsinghua or Peking University."

"Hi~!"

Everyone took a deep breath.

It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. While they were working themselves to the bone to prepare for the college entrance exam...

Has that person already been admitted to Tsinghua or Peking University through the guaranteed admission program?

As for whether anyone is curious about the reason why Lin Chen was recommended to Tsinghua and Peking Universities?

Of course there is.

However, after knowing each other for so long, everyone is aware of Lin Chen's strength.

It wouldn't be difficult for him to get a guaranteed admission spot.

"Old Lin! You've already been accepted into a top university, why are you still taking mock exams with us? Are you just messing around?"

Lu Han grabbed Lin Chen and questioned him.

"Because I've already given up the guaranteed admission to Tsinghua and Peking Universities, I want to take the college entrance examination."

Lin Chen's words suddenly silenced the classroom.

Lu Han's lips twitched, and he clenched his fist.

They were all tempted to punch Lin Chen.

Others are fighting tooth and nail to get into Tsinghua or Peking University through guaranteed admission, and you just give up like that?

At this moment, Chen Xiaoxiao asked, "Lin Chen, what do you plan to do about this?"

"Cold salad..."

Lin Chen shrugged helplessly: "What else can I do?"

Lu Han asked directly, "Old Lin, aren't you going to go online and rant a bit?"

"What are you cursing about? I can't even access Weibo on my phone, I don't even have an account."

"..."

Many people, feeling ashamed, stuffed the phones they had secretly brought into their pockets.

Look at others, then look at yourself!

No wonder others are top students, but they aren't.

In the end, Lin Chen decided to ignore it.

Anyway, the truth can't be hidden, and the false can't be made true.

Aren't these public intellectuals and influential figures just making a living by attracting attention and traffic?

If I were to engage with him, I would actually be helping him.

However, this time, Lin Chen underestimated the situation.

Although Lin Chen is now a genuine academic genius, he still has another identity.

Just a few months ago, Lin Chen was only a vocational school student...

……

Even Lu Han and his students knew about what was happening online.

The teachers at Donghai No.1 Middle School were naturally aware of this as well.

So, in the morning, Principal Lin convened an emergency meeting.

The meeting had only one agenda item: the article that had been causing a huge uproar online since last night.

"A top student or a poor student? How can a vocational school student be selected for the National Mathematical Olympiad team?"

Although the article did not mention Lin Chen's name.

But now Lin Chen's ranking and results in the math Olympiad selection competition are posted online, along with his school's information.

Therefore, it is easy to find out Lin Chen's identity with just a little online search.

Principal Lin had just woken up this morning when he received interview requests from several local media outlets in Donghai.

Even the leaders of the Education Bureau were alarmed and called Principal Lin directly, urging him to handle the matter properly.

To avoid a public opinion crisis.

In the conference room, Principal Lin sighed and confessed, "It's no use hiding it now, so I'll just tell you the truth: Lin Chen was indeed a vocational school student before."

He transferred to our school because he had been recommended for admission to Tsinghua or Peking University due to his outstanding academic performance.

That's why I didn't tell everyone about this so as not to affect Lin Chen's studies and life.

However, even though he was once a vocational school student, everyone is well aware of Lin Chen's current strength.

The main point we need to discuss now is how to handle this situation.

Upon hearing the principal's admission, the teachers, who were learning for the first time that Lin Chen was actually a vocational school student, immediately began to discuss among themselves.

However, some of the people present already knew about this.

Han Yu is one of them.

She stood up and said, "Principal Lin, I don't think there's any need to make a big deal out of this."

"Isn't that guy Fang Zhouzi just questioning Lin Chen's vocational school student status? Why don't we just contact him directly, explain the situation, and ask him to delete that article?"

Chemistry teacher Lu Weiguang pushed up his glasses and agreed:

"Teacher Han is right. If this had happened at the beginning of the semester, we might have had the same thoughts as that Fang Zhouzi."

But now that everyone understands Lin Chen's strength, I think we just need to clarify things.

And let's also ask the National Mathematical Olympiad Team to help issue a clarification announcement.

Lin Chen's exam paper is in their hands; don't they know his actual level?

Most teachers at the school felt that the matter wasn't actually that serious.

It was precisely because of Lin Chen's past status as a vocational school graduate that some questions arose.

But what's wrong with vocational school graduates?

Lin Chen's strength is undeniable; they have all witnessed it firsthand.

So as long as I explain the situation, there shouldn't be any problems.

Therefore, after a brief discussion, No. 1 Middle School finally decided to clarify Lin Chen's status as a vocational school student through several media outlets.

At the same time, contact that Fang Zhouzi and relay Lin Chen's true situation to him.

However, Donghai No.1 Middle School is, after all, just a high school.

Principal Lin and teachers like Han Yu usually have the most contact with students or leaders from the Education Bureau.

So they had no idea.

In fact, on the internet, netizens sometimes don't care about the truth.

They only ever want to see what they want to see.

And some influential figures' criticisms of a certain matter may not be solely for the purpose of criticizing that matter.

Rather, it's to criticize more things.

……

This is from the Weibo comment section.

In just one night, the number of comments under Fang Zhouzi's article had exceeded 500,000.

"Holy crap, a vocational school student who usually only gets 74 on tests, and then gets a perfect score in the math Olympiad selection? Are you kidding me? Is this the kind of academic superstar that Team Leader Xiao is looking for?"

"People these days are so audacious! They even dare to pull these kinds of tricks in the selection process for the math Olympiad team! What do they think of national honor? (fist) (fist)"

"In China, Messi might deliver food, Swift might work in a factory tightening screws, Shakespeare might write about new media, but Einstein would never have gone to a vocational school. (doge)"

"Before questioning this selection process, has no one considered how he managed to transfer to high school with a score of 74 on his vocational school entrance exam? Is this fair to those of us who didn't get into high school?!"
