Chapter 111(Chapter 110 (Second update)...)
Song Yao really planned to complete their 68th mission no matter how hard it was.
He also encouraged students who were not too enthusiastic about the 68 Project:
"In the future, everyone will have to apply for funds for whatever projects they want to work on. We treat it as a preview in advance."
"This is the first collective activity of our youth class. If we do it well this time, people outside will definitely look at us with admiration!"
Wang Duo, who was listening below, weakly raised his hand:
"But didn't we just have a group singing activity yesterday?"
"Yes." Another classmate added: "The day before yesterday, we gathered in the woods to bask in the sun and read a book."
"Also, when we made the dinosaur door, it was also a group activity."
Song Yao always loved to do things. They had only been in school for less than twenty days, and Song Yao had organized various group activities at least seven or eight times.
He also held a group hopscotch game last time, and many college students gathered to watch during the game, so everyone played very seriously.
Song Yao, who finally persuaded Teacher Lang to give up the podium to him: "... none of these are important!!"
"The important thing is! We are all geniuses! Geniuses! We will not be defeated by mere difficulties!"
Lang Qing, who was listening at the door, twitched his lips.
It's just difficult.
Plan 68 directly caps off the experimental fund for the entire junior class. Just the funds are not enough, and Song Yao and the others still need to piece it all together. After all, is it still a mere difficulty?
But he did admire Song Yao very much.
He actually got the consent of other students in the junior class, allowing him to apply for the capped funds, and he actually got investment and help from the teachers.
Now, as written in the plan, I will start to inspire the enthusiasm of other people in the class.
Lang Qing doesn't have this kind of execution ability.
Song Yao didn't know that Teacher Lang was praising him, and he was still working hard to draw the pie.
The previous Dinosaur Gate, because the dinosaurs were very handsome and big, plus it was requested by Teacher Lang, the students who like to help adults were naturally very excited.
But this time is different. No matter how interesting the final result of Project 68 is, the process is absolutely boring. Moreover, many people have no experience in this field and have to learn and follow it at the same time.
Many people in the class wanted to quit after doing it for a day.
Of course Song Yao didn't want to see such a scene. He already had to study medicine, study flying birds, and start Project 68. If he lost a few more helpers, he would be even more busy.
But he also knew very well that "battle-hardened" people like him and Zhao Xiaodong would find this kind of boring work that requires a lot of study to support, let alone classmates who have never done it before.
Fortunately, he learned the pie painting course very well, and he practiced hard on the teacher's investment, and now he can draw the pie in an advanced way.
The child standing on the podium sounded angry at some point:
"As everyone knows, we are the first junior class, the first batch of students to enroll at a very young age. Many people think that we are young and inferior to adults. We should not occupy Qiming Building."
Teacher Gu who sneaked over to listen: "..."
Why do I always feel like I'm being scolded?
Song Yao continued: "Just because we are children, no one will see our efforts! Think about it, don't you feel very angry?!"
Lang Qing: Each of these kids is more nerdy than the last. They work hard in Qiming Building. People outside will be shocked if they can see it.
But obviously, the children in the juvenile class are not so lucid.
Although they had only been here for less than twenty days, they also knew that some people at HKUST did not welcome them and felt that they received too many resources.
Adults may be able to tolerate this kind of discomfort, but these young and energetic children cannot.
Especially after being encouraged by Song Yao, they were full of fighting spirit:
"Hmph! We are young, but we are no worse than anyone else."
"That's right, I read until nine o'clock every day. If Song Yao hadn't said that you must go to bed before ten o'clock or you will lose your hair, I would still have to read at eleven o'clock."
Song Yao's persuasion was successful, and he felt happy as he looked at the excited friends.
He immediately struck a successful conclusion while the iron was hot:
"So this is an opportunity for us to face other people and show them that we have real power."
"When they see our excellence and know our hard work, they will definitely regret that they underestimated us before and admired us for being so good at such a young age!!"
"So we have to work hard!!"
Zhao Xiaodong immediately cooperated and shouted: "Work hard!!"
Other students were also led and shouted in unison: "Work hard!!!!"
The atmosphere in the youth class is lively. Teacher He would definitely recognize it if he saw it. Isn't this a necessary skill for teachers to inspire children to be competitive?
He's father and mother often use it in their own classes.
"Class xx ranked higher than our class, and our class fell behind."
"The head teacher of a certain class actually said that he would leave our class behind. He really dares to think so, don't you think so?"
This trick is especially useful for young and energetic students.
Whenever their morale is boosted, students in a class will work hard for a period of time, studying hard in order not to be looked down upon by the head teacher of a certain class.
As everyone knows, the head teacher of a certain class is secretly having fun with his own class teacher in the office.
The two university teachers outside who didn't know this trick looked confused when they heard it.
Teacher Gu: "No, when did other people look down on them?"
Lang Qing: "No one has ever doubted that they have no real power, right?"
He worked so hard to deliver the test papers for the junior class in school, so there was no way anything could slip through the net.
The two of them couldn't help but wonder if someone else was targeting Song Yao and the others.
They investigated in private and found that someone actually secretly placed some flyers in the school.
The general content of the flyer is that Song Yao from the juvenile class won a big project at a young age. It is obvious that whoever does it will make progress and achieve results. How can such a big project only allow nine-year-old Song Yao to do Balabala.
What he said was that he hoped that the school could let other students do this "big project".
After seeing the flyer, Teacher Gu was so angry that her hair stood on end: "This is unreasonable! This is unreasonable!!"
"This is something that Song Yao and his classmates made by themselves. Why should they share it with other students? Who made this thing? There are people in our University of Science and Technology who want to argue and divide things when they see other people's things. ?”
Lang Qing frowned, looked at the flyer carefully and said:
"The news about Qiming Building is never spread outside. Song Yao and the others have just decided on this project, and even some teachers don't know about it. How can any ordinary student get the news so quickly?"
Teacher Gu thought the same thing and immediately became vigilant:
"Could it be...?"
Lang Qing shook his head: "It doesn't seem like it. If it is really a spy or something, why do you have to do such a roundabout thing? There is no benefit."
Teacher Gu looked at the list in his hand and was still very angry:
"No matter who is posting these things, they must be caught! We at HKUST cannot afford students like this who want to take advantage of them when they see some benefit!"
He turned around and went to the principal. After a lot of cheating, he successfully got the principal to agree to close the dormitory door early at night.
They did not make any publicity or spread the news that they were arresting anyone. They planned to investigate one by one.
That night, all dormitory doors were locked.
As a result, the next day, there were still many flyers everywhere.
And what’s outrageous is that these flyers don’t look like they’re handwritten. Each word is exactly the same size, making the plan to arrest people based on their handwriting unworkable.
Teacher Gu confirmed his thoughts on this:
"Come prepared! This is what comes prepared!"
"The security guards also stayed there last night. They stayed there until three in the morning and didn't wait until they came back. The person hiding in the dark might have been patiently waiting all night until the security guards left before coming out."
Lang Qing also changed from being slightly vigilant at the beginning to being highly vigilant.
Logically speaking, no one in HKUST should have any thoughts about the junior class.
Especially Song Yao, he is only nine years old, who would have any ill intentions towards him?
Although many people have some objections to the junior class' exclusive use of Qiming Building, they are just greedy for the various equipment inside.
No student would look down upon these little brats.
Without him, the final exam paper for the junior class has been circulated privately in the school for more than ten days under the instruction of the principal.
Almost every student who got the test paper couldn't help but think about it in their mind, and then they had to admit that the children and students in the junior class were really good at it.
In addition, the juvenile class has basically no contact with the outside world after enrolling, and the popularity of them has long since dropped.
No one said anything about the flyer on the surface, but secretly there was an undercurrent, especially the teachers in Qiming Building, who expressed their anger about it.
Song Yao is a very lovable child. He is always cheerful. He greets the teacher enthusiastically when he sees him and is very serious in class.
Such a sensible and well-behaved child, they all want to know who is targeting him.
Someone asked Teacher Gu: "Do the students have any thoughts on the content on this paper?"
Teacher Gu really didn't know. He was too busy arresting people and didn't even ask.
Student Ma Shang was successfully called to the scene. In front of a group of teachers, he said with trepidation:
"Everyone is talking about it, and many people are guessing who posted those papers, and there are also people who want to participate in that big project."
Seeing that his teacher snorted and looked worried when he heard this, he quickly added:
"Because the papers said that this big project was confidential, everyone felt that it must be very important to keep it confidential. Before, everyone was not interested in the juvenile class project. They are all adults and no one wants to work with children.
But... confidential projects are different, then they must... Well, teacher, you also know that many senior brothers and sisters are about to graduate. If you can participate in important projects at this time, then it will definitely be..."
Teacher Gu: "Absolutely what absolute?! If this is done by the school, then we will definitely not favor one over the other! This is a project created by Song Yao and Zhao Xiaodong!"
"People have worked hard to cultivate the fruit and are about to plant a tree. Others come over and want to plant a tree together and share the fruit. Do you think it is possible?!!"
After being scolded, Ma Shang lowered his head and argued in a low voice:
"I didn't want to pick the fruit either. Teacher, it's useless for you to scold me."
Teacher Gu became even more angry when he heard this: "You don't even have the courage to do so!! Why don't you when everyone else wants it?! You're worthless!!"
Ma Shang wanted to cry but had no tears.
He will be scolded even if he has ideas, and he will be scolded even if he has no ideas. Why is he so unlucky?
After Teacher Gu finished scolding the students, he felt relieved and continued to instruct:
"You should observe carefully among the students and see if you can find out which grandson did this. Even a nine-year-old child is not spared."
Ma Shang nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, teacher, don't worry, I will definitely lurk in the crowd and catch the person."
Teacher Gu nodded with satisfaction:
"I'm telling you, classmate Song Yao has already asked you to participate in this project."
Ma Shang exclaimed in surprise: "Me, me, me, can I?!"
You must know that because of the flyers that appear every day, this legendary big project has attracted the attention of a large number of magical students even before it has appeared.
Ma Shang never thought about asking his teacher to help him get this opportunity. He was self-aware and did not want his teacher to ask for help for him.
In the end, the teacher actually got this opportunity for him?
When Teacher Gu saw the students so happy, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips proudly:
"According to me, you still need to study, but maybe classmate Song Yao has a relationship with me and took the initiative to let you join without waiting for me to say anything."
"So this is a great opportunity for you to repay him, you know? You must find that bastard who wants to trick people into criticizing Song Yao's hard work, you know!"
Did classmate Song Yao bring it up on his own initiative?
Ma Shang was so moved that he nodded repeatedly and vowed that he would definitely try his best 200%.
Teacher Gu waved his hand:
"Okay, go find classmate Song Yao and let him arrange it for you."
Ma Shang walked away with erratic steps.
Song Yao was worrying about recruiting all the outstanding students from the teachers, but there were still not enough manpower. When he saw another strong laborer coming, no, it was a talent, he immediately went over happily to greet him.
"Brother Ma Shang! You are here, let me take you to see what you are going to do next!"
Ma Shang was flattered.
He knew how talented Song Yao was, and his teacher, Teacher Gu, would praise him every day. Ma Shang, who was so praising, now only saw the words "genius, genius, genius" in his mind when he saw Song Yao.
I didn't expect that the other party actually trusted me so much. He was already able to do things on his first day here.
Ma Shang started to work slightly excitedly.
Half an hour later, he looked slightly dazed.
An hour later, his vision suddenly became blurry.
An hour and a half later, Ma Shang felt that he was even more erratic than before.
He tried to stand up and happened to see Song Yao running enthusiastically to deliver water to everyone.
"Drink some water and take a break."
Ma Shang also had a glass of water. As soon as he drank it, he saw the child in front of him with bright eyes and said:
"Brother Ma Shang, keep working hard! I'm right there! Call me if you need anything!"
After saying that, he ran to sit down, his eyes became serious, and he began to devote himself to his work.
Looking at the other children in the youth class, they all have high morale and serious expressions on their faces.
Ma Shang: "..."
The child has worked so hard, does he have the nerve to ask for a break?
So I could only grit my teeth and continue.
When he encounters something he doesn't know, he still has to stop and read a book. The key book is even more boring, and Ma Shang's eyes become straightened as he chews.
When he could finally leave, he only had one thought in his mind:
Otherwise he would not participate in this project.
I really can’t keep up with my strength.
Zhou Yi watched Ma Shang go out silently and said to Song Yao:
"Song Yao, brother Ma Shang doesn't want to do it anymore."
Song Yao took the time to answer while writing furiously:
"No, Teacher Gu is here and will not let brother Ma Shang quit."
Zhao Xiaodong came over holding a notebook:
"Yao'er, there are still not enough people."
Song Yao stopped writing and thought for a moment: "Then let's recruit people!"
Yesterday, Tuesday, I asked Zhao Xiaodong to make an abacus for myself. At this moment, he took the abacus and made calculations:
"Recruiting requires money. Based on the number of people needed now and the approximate amount of money we need to give, it is so much. We have no money in hand."
Song Yaoli said confidently: "Who said we have to pay!"
He hummed: "Our project is the most popular project now! It's good if we don't need their money!"
Wang Duo came over: "But didn't you say before that everyone thought we were kids and wouldn't join our project?"
Song Yao crossed his arms proudly: "Maybe not before, but not necessarily now."
"Now most of the schools know that our junior class has a secret project, and the school is hiding it from others and not allowing them to join. They will definitely think that this is a very, very good project."
Zhao Xiaodong nodded: "Yes, just like I always think the meat in your bowl tastes better."
Song Yao: "Yes! My father taught me that the things that are robbed must be good things."
"In the past, even if we directly recruited people, they didn't want to come in. But now if we don't recruit people, they will try their best to come in."
The child thought for a moment and waved his hand:
"Let's just say that our junior class cannot withstand the pressure and is open to recruiting, but it requires an exam, and it is a very difficult exam. We also have to sign a confidentiality agreement, and we also have to sign an agreement not to withdraw midway."
Wang Duo said weakly: "Will this scare everyone away?"
"No." Song Yao vowed: "The more complicated and difficult we make it, the more they want to come in. After they come in, even if they want to quit, are they embarrassed to see our junior class working so hard at such a young age!"
Zhao Xiaodong chuckled wickedly: "Then Xu Xu and the others will definitely just want to surpass them when they see these adults being so serious. When the time comes, no matter how boring or difficult it is, everyone will just do their best."
"Yes! We have enough people and enough money. Project 68 will be completed and will be just around the corner!"
Song Yao happily high-fived Zhao Xiaodong.
After high-fiving, I found that the four friends in front of me looked at them with complicated eyes.
Song Yao: "? What?"
Tuesday shivered: "I just think... you two are really bad."
Monday thought thoughtfully: "You guys haven't done other bad things, right?"
Song Yao and Zhao Xiaodong looked at each other and denied in unison: "No!"
"Absolutely not!"
***
That night, Teacher Gu and Lang Qing took Ma Shang to watch together.
"Today we must catch the bastard who targeted Song Yao!"
Teacher Gu held the flashlight tightly in her hand: "Recently, for this project, classmate Song Yao has changed to getting up at five o'clock and going to bed at nine o'clock. If we can't catch this troublemaker, I will take his surname!"
Lang Qing said calmly: "The security guard waited until three o'clock last time and didn't wait for anyone. Now it's four fifty. That person will definitely come before dawn."
Ma Shang weakly asked: "Is there more than one person? Teacher, can the three of us beat him?"
Teacher Gu was about to scold him when he suddenly heard some noise and hurriedly hissed.
The three of them breathed lightly, and sure enough they saw a figure walking through the night, heading straight towards the playground.
They patiently waited for the figure to come to them before standing up suddenly.
Teacher Gu immediately turned on the flashlight and shined it:
"Okay!! We caught you! You bully even a child..."
The rest of his words ended abruptly.
Under the shocked gazes of the three people, Song Yao and Zhao Xiaodong stood opposite, feeling guilty and moving slowly.
Trying to hide the flyer behind his back.
