"The top ten prizes are 100,000, and the first prize is over 600,000. Isn't it an exaggeration..."
The price of Ping An Lu’s heart sounds very scary, but when you calm down and think about it, it’s quite normal.
Compared with those in the previous life who gave away cars, houses, and millions of dollars, and heavily rewarded the whole country and the top prize in a province, Guchengda has been very restrained.
What they don't want is more of a gimmick, but a real lack of talent and competition for talent.
"Six first-class training institutions with the same specifications are competing for people. Every high-quality graduate has real combat power and is a member of a huge network of contacts..."
With this background, considering the high income and high risks of graduate secret keepers, 600,000 is just a very attractive start-up capital.
No wonder Xia Qin said that she could finish it in three or four years, but maybe she was speaking according to the standards of ordinary professionals.
Now, let alone the 600,000 yuan that is too difficult to obtain, Lu Pingan has already heard that there are third-level fierce men among the candidates this time.
The first ten bonuses of 100,000 may really make an impact.
He feels there is hope, but if someone with a little knowledge knew about it, they would think he was eating a peach.
"It would be good for a newly awakened person to have a training institution, but he still wants to enter Guda University? He has already achieved great success after entering Guda University, and he still wants to get a bonus? Why don't you go to heaven?"
Well, that’s what the kitten said.
"...What if I get the bonus?"
"I'll be your little sister, meow!"
To be honest, sometimes Lu Ping'an envies Shui Yun's extremely innocent character. There is no need to get excited about this flag, he is ready to run some errands.
But when he really looked forward to the bonus, he found that there were still some troubles.
"...The technology tree of this world seems a bit crooked."
After taking out the general college entrance examination papers from previous years and doing a little homework, Lu Pingan frowned.
It's not because it's too difficult, after all, he has also realized that what he has learned from his studies has been returned to the teacher, but...
"...Why is it so easy?!"
Mathematics is still about functional geometry, physics is still struggling with the basics of electricity and magnetism, and chemistry is a straightforward examination of the periodic table of elements, which is just like...
"The content of the college entrance examination is only as difficult as the junior high school entrance examination?"
At this moment, Lu Ping'an became more aware of the differences between the two similar worlds.
Due to the existence of "abnormalities", the entire world has already distorted the technology tree in some aspects. For example, the mainstream flying tool in this world is not an airplane, but a huge and slow steam airship.
The reason is very simple. It is because during a certain technological innovation, a new energy source (crude oil refining) and supporting engine extracted from a certain potion science greatly increased the speed and cargo capacity of the steam airship. The survival of the fittest directly made the steamship that had just appeared at that time
The aircraft has become a niche.
Afterwards, technological innovations naturally followed the technology tree of airships.
Generations of innovations have led to airships with larger cargo capacity. In people's eyes, aircraft have become synonymous with high cargo capacity, and "aircraft" have embarked on a racing route similar to "rocket".
Since the speed of the aircraft is not outrageous, which leads to the relative lag of anti-air weapons, the technology tree has taken a strange turn, leaving missiles gone. Firearms and heavy artillery are still the mainstream.
At the same time, the aircraft carrier is gone and the aircraft carrier is out.
The apex battleship with strong ships and heavy artillery is still the king of naval battles and even the king of war.
The high load capacity of air transport has taken away the business of sea transport and land transport. In addition, the "steam omnipotence" of the power system has caused subtle differences between ground transport and sea transport... I will not go into this for now.
A fulcrum, a technological disagreement, can change the earth.
And such differences can be found in every aspect of history and the entire world.
What's more straightforward is the mobile phone in Lu Ping'an's hand...
"...There isn't even a search engine, and it's so difficult to look up questions. The web page is still the BBS community of the last century, with only text and no images. You actually need administrator permissions to post a pornographic picture? Does GHS require hacking knowledge these days?”
Mobile phones, or portable communication systems, appeared earlier than the previous world.
Mobile networks also appeared earlier, but the speed of evolution seems to have been strangely and forcibly interrupted.
Various forums and websites are always text-based, and pictures can only be posted with administrator permissions.
Don’t even think about short videos. VCD discs and video tapes are still the favorites of sellers.
Is this a technical reason? If it was Ping An Lu a few days ago, I would probably still think so, but now...
"Information is also a kind of pollution. Compared with images, pictures, and text that limit the input content, which has a huge amount of information and spreads quickly, it is easier to control. It seems that the network will not evolve anymore."
All communication is limited to websites and forums, and there is no direct communication software between individuals. SMS messages that must go through the network administrator's server have become the mainstream of communication.
"Things like chat rooms are only available on big websites. There are no PVP tools like QQ and WeChat. I can't believe it!"
Differences in various aspects have led to subtle differences in the test papers in Lu Ping'an's hands... After all, in a sense, the college entrance examination tests the foundation of human civilization.
Basic science and technology subjects such as mathematics and physics are much simpler than in previous lives, but memory-oriented science subjects such as chemistry and biology, known as the "liberal arts among sciences", have inexplicably added many tributaries and contents.
"Biology is too difficult. It has a lot of practical and university-level content. The score is higher than that of physics. It is basically the first subject of comprehensive science. Chemical elements and compounds are easy, but they actually have to take the alchemy and pharmacy test. You also need to take a practical test..."
Lu Pingan, who had just turned over the paper and found it easy, thought he was doing well, but the reality told him that he was really not good at it.
"...I have almost forgotten the previous functions, geometry, and electromagnetism."
He also underestimated the tragedy of not reading the book for twenty years. He only answered 2 out of 10 "high school entrance examination questions" that he thought he was sure of.
If this continues, not to mention getting bonuses, you may only get one or two points in a 10-point test, setting a new historical record.
Lu Ping'an slumped on the chair and covered his face with the paper. If he continued like this, he would probably be doomed...
"By the way, Maomao, why do we have to go to the examination room at Guda to take the written test? Isn't it the same as the national test?"
Lu Ping'an seemed to have thought of something and made a call.
"...Of course it's to prevent cheating, meow. These guys will abuse it when they have the ability. The professors will personally come to invigilate the exam, meow! It's very strict."
"If you are discovered, you will be banned from taking the exam for life? Will you remember a demerit?"
"Why do you think so? It's so cruel. Just cancel the written test results of that year and give them a zero score. It's basically impossible to pass that year."
"......Oh, the qualifications for other subjects will not be cancelled."
Put down the phone, Lu Pingping understood.
Originally, the thing to prevent was not cheating, but cheating that was not good enough.
"...Everything is false and everything is allowed? I suddenly like the way the secret keeper behaves..."
Then, to be precise, 10 minutes later, there were a dozen test papers and notebooks in front of Kris-chan.
The urgently purchased textbooks and computers are still on their way.
The confused big cat looked at Lu Pingan, who was clasping his hands together asking for help, his heart and fingers were trembling at the same time.
"you you......."
"Please, teacher! It's all up to you!"
Yes, this is Lu Ping'an's way of coping, taking a cat teacher with him at all times.
Even though he had just come into contact with this different world of blooming flowers, Lu Ping'an knew the supernatural powers in it. There were so many career paths that it was impossible to kill them all.
Taking a step back, even if there are comprehensive restrictions on capabilities, is the "restriction" itself really fair?
"The first-level professional skills of the Scholar (Taboo Bachelor) path are 'reading' and 'writing'. When it comes to reading exams, the other paths combined cannot compete with them."
The senior gardener had a part-time job as a scholar, and her professional experience gave Lu Pingan some understanding of this popular path.
"Instead of forcibly creating inequality, it is better to formulate elimination rules to eliminate super cheaters who are not qualified enough. After all, the exam is used to select super talents..."
This is Lu Ping'an's guess.
What if you guess wrong? There's nothing you can do about it.
Anyway, it is impossible for Lu Ping An to pass by normal means. Is there any difference between two points and zero points?
"Please! Kris-chan! The secret keeper's exam shouldn't stop you. For ordinary subjects, there are computers and exercises. You can just help me turn over the books when the time comes. You don't want me to lose my reputation, so you can't hide in the ancient city.
It’s a big secret academy.”
So, he forced the cat to study and prepare for the exam.
"Have a safe road! You have never let me down when it comes to being a good person!"
