Chapter 58 Upgrade
Chapter 58 Upgrade
No. 1 Middle School is a business district, No. 3 Middle School is a love field, and No. 8 Middle School is a battlefield.
The three high schools are naturally all schools in the Fog City. 138 is the third of the Seven Dragon Balls, and they are all good schools.
But the above summary is enough to prove the strict management of No. 8 Middle School. Gu Lu also checked online and found that some people jokingly called it the "Eighth Prison".
"As for studying, I think it would be more appropriate to call it Pawnshop No. 8, using time and energy to pawn your future." Gu Lu said in a low voice.
Choosing a school is a matter of mutual understanding, and No. 8 Middle School also has a preliminary understanding of Gu Lu. First of all, his performance in other subjects has great potential.
Secondly, I am good at writing. From the first to the third year of junior high school, I participated in many essay competitions with a medium level.
"If it weren't for the last two months of the third year of junior high school, it would be unknown whether Gu Lu could be admitted to high school."
Director Hu from the Admissions Office—oh, that’s Mr. Hu whose eyes are narrowed so that they are almost invisible—was looking at the report.
"Break the record in the preliminary round, win first prize in the final, one of the top ten young writers in the country. A signed writer of Youth Literature and Art that President Jian is optimistic about..."
Especially this one that President Jian is optimistic about. Only those who have been in the education field know its influence. Not to mention its status in the publishing industry, the key point is that President Jian is one of the best-selling kindergarten textbook compilers in the country.
“That’s what I’ve always said. Unless a person is pushed to the limit, he will never know his potential.” Teacher Hu said that he believed that Gu Lu’s potential had exploded.
There is also fierce competition among schools. Bashu Middle School, No. 3 Middle School and No. 1 Middle School are eyeing the title of "the best middle school in the foggy city".
That is not just an empty title, but real policy support and financial investment.
If we can cultivate a famous children's literature writer, especially if his works are published during school years, it will be a great boost to the reputation of No. 8 Middle School.
"Student Gu Lu will definitely be satisfied with this plan..."
After a meeting and discussion, the leadership of No. 8 Middle School knew that Bashu Middle School was also involved, and they offered a condition that Gu Lu could not refuse. This was where Teacher Hu's confidence came from.
The second meeting place was not the principal's office, but the multimedia classroom of No. 37 Middle School.
The place where the open class is held is also the venue for the school-wide meeting. At this moment, there are seven or eight teachers present.
They were all called by Principal Liu.
Gu Lu looked around and found that the teachers present were people he had seen before but could not remember their names.
Teacher Li had classes, so he couldn't be there this time.
With so many people here, it's a bit too high-profile...
Gu Lu and Teacher Hu greeted each other, exchanged a few pleasantries and then got down to business.
“First, we will waive Gu Lu’s tuition and all miscellaneous expenses, including meal expenses; secondly, we will provide an off-campus dormitory subsidy of 400 yuan per semester,” said Teacher Hu.
The cost of boarding at No. 400 Middle School for one semester is yuan, which is equivalent to free food and accommodation at the school.
"Regarding the scholarship for special talents, we will award the scholarship on the day when Gu Lu's new work is released. In addition, to support student creation, if the book is published, our school library will order 100 copies."
The second part of the condition that Teacher Hu mentioned is a pie that can only be obtained if certain requirements are met. Seriously speaking, the probability that Gu Lu can eat the pie is very high.
"Our No. 8 Middle School has the highest chance of getting into Tsinghua University and Peking University in the city, and the enrollment rate is also the highest. Even so, we have always been known for our freedom. Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and developing their artistic talents are our principles. Considering the special advantages of Gu Lu, so-"
Teacher Hu took out a form and handed it to Gu Lu.

"This is the schedule for our high school department," explained Teacher Hu.
The wake-up bell rang at less than seven o'clock, which made Gu Lu look serious. School was over at five forty-five in the afternoon, and then he started evening self-study at six o'clock. He only had fifteen minutes for dinner? !
Are high school students suffering so much these days? Or is No. 8 Middle School particularly strict?
No wonder the third year of high school is the peak of human intelligence... When Gu Lu was in technical secondary school, he would skip early classes whenever he could, and the teachers didn't care much.
Gu Lu put down his schedule. Really, he regretted it. He didn’t have to challenge his weak spot.
"If Gu Lu has outstanding achievements, he can be exempted from homework, can skip morning and evening self-study, and receive a series of preferential treatments," said Teacher Hu.
Perhaps Director Hu and Teacher Li had talked about these preferential treatments, which made Gu Lu a little tempted.
If I get preferential treatment, No. 8 Middle School won't be that hard to endure, right? Thinking of this, Gu Lu asked, "Teacher Hu, can you tell me what the achievement includes?"
Teacher Hu told the story in detail, including his works being serialized in mainstream publications, his books and single volumes being popular, and his winning prizes in essay writing competitions.
The philosophy of the school leaders of No. 8 Middle School is a bit advanced - Gu Lu is somewhat tempted.
He has also made plans for his high school. If he wants to apply to university, he can participate in the Wenpei Cup Youth Creative Writing Competition. The competition is organized by Peking University, so if he can win the national first prize, he will be 100% guaranteed to be admitted to Peking University.
Based on the above, Gu Lu definitely hopes that high school will be easier!
"So the upcoming high school life will become a journey of upgrading?" Gu Lu thought.
Gu Lu was moved by Director Hu's sincerity, and the only thing left was for No. 8 Middle School to contact the alcoholic father to confirm.
I don't want to let the drunkard get involved, but Gu Lu is a minor after all, and many things require the consent of his guardian.
Having completed his task, Mr. Hu smiled, and his eyes seemed to grow a little bigger with happiness.
"The school leaders' thinking makes sense..." Teacher Hu admired in his heart.
English can be supplemented, but if you fail math, physics and chemistry in junior high school, the probability of catching up when entering high school - especially in No. 8 Middle School - is infinitely close to Daju's daily 10,000.
Teacher Hu asked for Gu's father's contact number and left neatly. The Admissions Office still had a lot to do.
"Teacher Li, you are lucky to have such a good student."
"Generally, recommended students have their tuition waived, but in order to attract students, No. 8 Middle School even waived tuition and miscellaneous fees. This is exaggerated, really exaggerated, but it also indirectly proves that they are really excellent."
"Many students in our class also like to read novels, but no one is like this."
"Teacher Li will occupy a spot in this year's professional title review, which is also Teacher Li's luck."
When the teachers in the multimedia classroom saw the director of the admissions office of No. 8 Middle School leave, they started discussing the matter.
The voice did not avoid the person involved at all.
"You teachers are wrong. I am lucky to be Teacher Li's student." Gu Lu couldn't help but say something from the heart.
Without the help of Teacher Li, even if he was a time traveler, his road to success would be much more tortuous.
Under the teachers' slightly surprised gazes, Gu Lu said hello to Principal Liu and left the multimedia classroom...
