1709: Waiting for a Year of Recognition! (3 More)
"professor!"
"Professor McCarthy."
"Big--"
Because they were so surprised, some people almost called out the title "Great Demon King", but fortunately they braked in time.
Professor McCarthy's appearance at the student party is out of place, but if it is Xia Xiaolan's farewell party, it seems to be a matter of course! After all, Xia Xiaolan is someone who can get A+ grades under McCarthy. Such a student is going to return to China. Maybe the big devil is also reluctant?
Everyone is very curious, what the big devil will say to Xia Xiaolan.
Xia Xiaolan showed absolutely no disrespect.
"Professor, you are here, I am very happy!"
I really don't have a conscience, I'm happy to leave.
The music stopped, and McCarthy said with a serious face:
"Although you rejected my invitation, did not want to stay at Cornell University for further studies, and insisted on returning to China, this choice is still considered stupid by me, you have left the forefront of the architecture profession, and in a few years , you may be overtaken by your current classmates... But I have to admit, you at this time, and you in the past year, have performed very well. Xia Xiaolan, you and Ning Xue have given me a new understanding of Huaguo students. I am very impressed with Hua-tsing University!"
This is McCarthy's parting encouragement to Xia Xiaolan.
It is the Great Demon King's recognition of the strength of Chinese students.
Daisy and the others didn't realize it at first, until Xia Xiaolan pointed out the key points:
"Professor, I am also glad that you can come, and even more glad that you are willing to call me by my full name of Huaguo. I will not forget your encouragement, and I will strive not to be left behind by the frontier of architecture!"
The crowd suddenly realized.
McCarthy called out Xia Xiaolan's Chinese name, using the Chinese pronunciation, thinking that the Great Demon King secretly practiced the Chinese pronunciation of the three words "Xia Xiaolan" in the office for this very moment, inexplicably cute.
The Great Demon King is a stern professor.
The hook nose is still so oppressive, even if he shows a soft side now, no student dares to lift him up and throw him into the sky.
When are you brave?
Maybe on graduation day, when everyone throws their bachelor hats into the sky, they can't help throwing the big devil!
Xia Xiaolan felt relieved.
From the first time I took McCarthy's class, the preconceived terrifying footsteps, to today, McCarthy's recognition of her, it took almost a year to prove herself, at this moment, of course, Xia Xiaolan is very cool!
This is the meaning of struggle, the driving force of struggle, to climb one mountain after another, and conquer one strong after another.
Parting doesn't have to be all sentimental, it can also be carnival.
In the end, Xia Xiaolan was drunk, and many people were drunk.
She vaguely remembered that she was pulling Ning Xue, and using an old-fashioned tone, told Ning Xue to be careful about Mond Dawson, told Ning Xue to stabilize the reputation of Huaqing University, and told Ning Xue that there are excellent men everywhere. If this one is not suitable, replace it with another one. Girls, don't feel wronged... Uh, Xia Xiaolan can't remember Jonathan's expression at that time.
"I didn't beat me on the spot because Jonathan's temper was better, right?"
Sober up, Xia Xiaolan has a headache.
I was going back to China, and the Ford car was useless. Xia Xiaolan sold the car before the test.
After driving for a year, there are depreciation charges, but some of the car money is recovered.
There are many Chinese students who plan carefully, and Xia Xiaolan is the kind who has money and does not waste it.
She was an exchange student this year, and she never treated herself materially.
Not counting the money invested in Ma Hai and Xu Jing, as well as the money paid to Jim, Xia Xiaolan went to school in the United States and made money... The prize money from the cw design competition, the salary she received during her internship at gmp, the School of Architecture promised her and Ning Xue's scholarship, and the check just sent to her by the gmp firm.
Kissinger also knew that Xia Xiaolan was going to return to China. Although Mrs. Wilson was still chattering, the commission for the renovation of the theater continued day by day. Before Xia Xiaolan returned to China, Kissinger fulfilled the project that he had promised to give her. commission.
This money is not earned by doing business, but purely by Shunen.
So, how can a real scholar be poor?
Realizing knowledge is the right of the true masters. Some real masters are temporarily useless, which does not mean that they will never use them.
Hu Ying packed Xia Xiaolan's luggage. The Wen family was about to take it back because of the increased excitement of Xia Xiaolan this year. Hu Ying was reluctant to bear it. She said to Xia Xiaolan:
"I will keep your room for you, will you still come to America?"
"Of course! I'll come to see you, Auntie Hu!"
Professor Wen and Hu Ying sent Xia Xiaolan to New York.
Professor Wen also wanted Xia Xiaolan to stay at Cornell, but his reaction to Xia Xiaolan's return to China was not as big as McCarthy's.
McCarthy felt that when Xia Xiaolan returned to China, she was out of the forefront of architecture, but Professor Wen knew that there was still an old friend Mao Kangshan in China. Xia Xiaolan wanted to be abandoned, but Mao Kangshan would not agree!
When they arrived in New York, Xia Xiaolan met four people.
The first Jim.
Jim was monitoring the Wilsons for her. Now that Xia Xiaolan is going back to China, this commission should end.
"The most unusual thing is that Mrs. Wilson once met with Mond Dawson, and then she stopped moving. I think this may have something to do with Tina's return to the United States. Mrs. Wilson is busy caring about Tina, and now the two of them get along with the same mother. Female."
In love with mother and daughter?
Mrs. Wilson has no profit. I heard that Tina's inheritance is only the cash and stock part.
There are more than 20 million US dollars, and there are other real estate inherited from Cui Yiru's name.
Xia Xiaolan didn't want to think people too bad, but Tina inherited more than Xia Xiaolan's entire net worth, $1 million, which was not much for Mrs. Wilson, and a total of tens of millions of dollars in inheritance, for anyone It's all a lot of money!
Xia Xiaolan didn't meddle in her own business, Tina was not her responsibility, Tina was an adult, and Xu Changle couldn't control who she was willing to associate with.
"I see, Jim, thank you for this time!"
"Pleasant to work with."
Such refreshing customers are hard to find, and I don't know when the next one will be met.
I used to dislike taking care of the baby, and now I don't even have the entrustment to take care of the baby.
That's right, Xia Xiaolan thinks there is no need to take care of Zhou Yi secretly.
The second person she wants to see in New York is Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi has passed the 108th grade in the language school. Qi Wei has given too much to spur and encourage Zhou Yi to study. Even Zhou Yi herself was surprised that she actually passed the 108th grade from almost no foundation.
Xia Xiaolan wants to return to China, Zhou Yi is quite regretful:
"In two days, I will be able to apply for the 109-level exam."
After passing the 109th grade, she can apply to community colleges if her pursuit is not high. Zhou Yi used to think like that, no matter what university, she was not picky, she just read it and hurried back to China.
But in the United States for half a year, Zhou Yi's mentality has also changed.
Thanks to Qi Wei's brainwashing.
Qi Wei's goal is law school. For this reason, Qi Wei has gone to the law firm where Wen Manni works as an intern and is working as a personal assistant for Wen Manni.
Zhou Yi's heart is not that big, but she also feels that community colleges are not good enough.
Xia Xiaolan did not laugh at her, but instead encouraged and affirmed her:
"Sister Zhou Yi, no problem. I'll go back two days early and two days later. It won't affect your passing the 109-level exam."
