Chapter 12 We seem to have recognized the wrong brother
Regarding the so-called 1st Yau Tsim Mong Secondary School Singing Competition.
Even though the champion had already been chosen by the sponsor to be his son, Fan Wumian still decided to give it a try. Even if he didn't have a chance to win first place, the 25000 yuan prize for second place would be pretty good too.
Anyway, it only takes some time to sing a song on stage. If I get the prize money, at least I can afford a guitar, and I won’t have to worry about food and drink for the next few months.
By the time he bought food and arrived in 2004 with a head full of music library, Fan Wumian felt that he was incredibly strong. Even if he went to the Temple Street Night Market or the bar street Lan Kwai Fong to sing outdoors, he could probably earn two or three hundred yuan for a whole night.
Having a father like Silly Old Fan made him really lack confidence in his ability to have enough food and clothing.
He went to the cafeteria first and bought a hot dog for 10 Hong Kong dollars to fill his stomach. As the bell rang, Fan Wumian leisurely walked to the classroom according to the route he remembered.
Looking around, I saw Mantis and Youpian lying on the table like dead dogs, the backs of their white shirts and school uniforms were soaked with sweat. Class 8 () was the last-place class in the grade and it also included the "Five Brothers" including Fan Wumian. One could imagine the quality of the students in this class.
Unlike in the mainland, there are only twenty-four students in the entire small class. Each long table is divided into three seats, with four rows on the left and four rows on the right.
Fortunately, Fan Wumian didn’t like to disturb his classmates during class, so he was able to sit at a normal desk.
As for Huang Nanji, who was ranked fourth when they became sworn brothers, and He Jian, who was ranked fifth, this pair of dragon and phoenix, each of them could only sit at a separate table on both sides of the podium.
It can only be said that birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
The nickname of the fourth child Huang Nanji is "Meat Dish Man", and the nickname of the fifth child He Jian is "Bird King". Just by listening to the nicknames given by other classmates, you can tell what kind of people they are. The secretion of hormones during adolescence is much more vigorous than that of other peers, which is really weird.
One of them tried to sell cavalry CDs to his classmates and was caught and criticized by the dean of discipline. The other one ran around naked in swimming class simply because he forgot to bring his swimming trunks.
There was a period of time at the beginning of this year when the two brothers kept instigating Fan Wumian, wanting the eldest brother to lead the way so that they could go together to see Feng Jie to see the world and have something to talk about after dinner.
Fortunately, Fan Wumian had no money in his pocket, and he was also worried that they would tell everyone about the incident afterwards and his dream lover Zuo Ziyan would hear it. Otherwise, he would have been dragged into the water at that time.
Sitting in the school classroom again gave Fan Wumian a wonderful feeling.
In my previous life, in order to get into the Beijing Film Academy, I devoted myself to studying for several months. I thought that time was too painful to look back on, but now when I think about it, it seems quite fulfilling and interesting.
When he was in a daze, he saw someone looking at him out of the corner of his eye.
I glanced in the direction of her sight and saw the female squad leader Luan Ai, who was pretty good-looking but had a slightly dark skin. She quickly turned her head away.
I thought I had a little fangirl, but I didn't expect that the female monitor named Luan Ai stood up and said:
"I just asked the teacher for a list of books for Form 7. I will post it at the back of the classroom later."
"As before, there are textbooks, exercise books, tutorials and reference books. The school will charge 720 yuan this year to help order some textbooks. If some students have difficulties, they can also choose to go to the library to buy some second-hand books."
"If you really have difficulties, you can also go to the Student Financial Assistance Office for consultation. If you register with me privately, you can also get some of the fees waived."
While squad leader Luan Ai was speaking, he once again made eye contact with Fan Wumian.
This made him stunned for a moment, and he belatedly remembered that last year's "1.0" version of Fan Wumian delayed paying for the book for more than a month after getting the book, and only paid for it when Silly Old Fan got his salary. This almost made Squad Leader Luan Ai cry, thinking that he was really just playing a prank on him.
Okay.
This fee, plus tuition fees, made the already poor Fan Wumian even worse off.
In his impression, the price of books in Hong Kong is several times more expensive than in the mainland, which seems to respect the value of knowledge. In addition to a small number of teaching materials ordered by the school, he has to spend an additional 2000 to 3000 Hong Kong dollars to buy tutorial books, exercise books, reference books, etc.
The good mood of returning to school disappeared in an instant.
Fan Wumian silently looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, thinking that he had not yet enjoyed a good life after the accident, and why he was busy enjoying the taste of poverty. Fortunately, he had never been rich in his two lives, so he did not feel any psychological gap. Although it was the last year of middle school, most of the students were preparing to enter their favorite universities, and the courses were actually quite relaxed.
For example, today.
After the female head teacher in her forties gave some instructions, she asked everyone to gather downstairs to hold a celebration for the graduation day.
In Hong Kong's secondary schools today, the knowledge learned in Form 6 and Form 7 is to prepare students for university entrance exams, and leaving campus early is actually considered as obtaining a high school diploma.
By the time they were in the seventh grade, it was no longer necessary to tell whether they were a mule or a horse. The last-place class that Fan Wumian was in was almost completely abandoned. Even when the principal was lecturing, he subconsciously skipped over classes seven and eight.
Holding a meeting in front of the teaching building.
Fan Wumian had nothing to do, so he turned his head and looked around. Soon he saw Zuo Ziyan, the head student leader, taking the stage to speak, urging everyone to do their best to get the best number of students admitted to the top 100 universities in the world in recent years.
After all, it is a Hong Kong city, so it is not that difficult for students to get into university. About 40% of students can be admitted to the eight famous universities in Hong Kong. Students with better grades like to set the top 30 world-renowned universities as their goal.
Youpiao, who was standing next to Fan Wumian, lowered his voice and said:
"My dad gave me an ultimatum last night. He said if I can't get into one of the top eight universities, he will send me to study in Thailand or Malaysia. If I can't even go there, I will have to stay at home and deliver food. He won't give me any pocket money."
The fourth brother Huang Nanji spoke first:
"Oh, brother San, Thailand is a great place. You can eat mangoes and durians to your heart's content. There are also transvestites, both male and female, to be your wives. It's a double enjoyment."
Upon hearing this, Fan Wumian said, "Why didn't I see it before? Your idea is a bit dangerous."
The fourth brother Huang Nanji quickly clarified:
"I don't like this. Brother Mantis just said that you and the beauty from Class 3 are neighbors. Good brother, don't say anything. I plan to stay at your house for a few days. The one who is close to the water will get the moon first."
Fan Wumian stretched out his hand and said:
"That's fine, but as the old saying goes, brothers should be clear about accounts. The rent is 1000 yuan a day, pay first and then move in."
When he said this, Fan Wumian suddenly had an idea. He thought that since Zhuang Muxi worked part-time in a music store during the summer vacation, he might have the opportunity to rent a guitar from the store at a low price.
Those who have no food to eat are unable to even go out to sing to earn some pocket money, not to mention signing up for the Yau Tsim Mong Middle School singing competition.
then.
As soon as the celebration of the graduation day was over, Fan Wumian couldn't wait to find Zhuang Muxi in the crowd and blocked this tall girl from Taiwan with milky skin at the stairs.
Many people were paying attention to Zhuang Muxi, and after seeing this scene, many boys gritted their teeth.
Even the "sworn brother" Lao Wu He Jian sighed and said:
"What a beast! It seems like we have recognized the wrong big brother. Not only did he not give Zuo Ziyan a chance, but he actually wanted to have two relationships at the same time. Otherwise, why don't we rebel together!"
"Seconded!"
"plus one!"
After hearing this, Mantis, who was the second in command, said excitedly:
"Okay! From now on, I will be the eldest brother, and Brother Tianwang will be the fifth. But now there is a problem. Who among us will inform him about this matter and can withstand his beating?"
