Chapter 381 The turbulent youth of international students
Seldy Stocker sat in his chair and looked at the professors who were starting to discuss opposite him. Although he was very confident in his article, he still felt a little nervous.
However, he was just a little nervous. He felt that since he had survived even the difficult times at the Red Maple Factory, there was nothing he could not overcome.
Besides, his thesis was submitted through the professor two weeks ago. Now that it has entered the final defense stage, the probability of passing it is already over 80%.

Sure enough, the professors' final discussion only lasted five minutes. Afterwards, Stoker's tutor, Professor Gada, said in a serious voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Seldy, I'm not asking you to come here today because I have any objection to your thesis."
There is nothing too doubtful. On the contrary, some of the concepts in the article are refreshing to us.”
This professor from Shanmo has two long trunks like elephants. It is difficult to determine whether these are his nose or an extra pair of hands. His accent has always been very heavy. However, his nose is slightly raised.
This is a subconscious manifestation of Shanmo people becoming serious.
In the early conquest era of the empire, non-human races like the Shanmo people could not even have national identity. At most, they could become free citizens with certain personal rights, let alone a respected profession like a university professor. Only
However, even if he is a scholar with certain fame and achievements in the economics field, Professor Gada will never become a citizen of the empire. On the one hand, he is not a human being, on the other hand, he has no military merit, and on the other hand, he is not a psychic.
.
No matter how advanced the Galactic Empire is on the surface, no matter how open-minded and open-minded the ten generations of divine kings are, it is still a world dominated by 5 million sword-wielding nobles and 2 billion military citizens.
Seldy Stork thought of what Yu Lian said to him when he was at the Red Maple Factory, and he couldn't help but have some insights. He had never considered the problem from this aspect before, but now that he looked at it, he had to admit that Yu Lian
What Lian said is so right.
Professor Gada did not care about the students' desertion and continued: "According to your point in the article, in the development of an enterprise, the owners of the enterprise...well, that is, the boss we all call, are actually responsible for the development of the enterprise.
Did it have any side effects?”
"Through the series of incidents at the Red Maple Factory, when I was completing the thesis, I checked many corporate information and found that this kind of thing is not an isolated case. It also does not only happen in the community. Alliance, Empire, Minlan, Chelre
Grams, we all have this problem." Stork thought for a moment and then said: "Business owners...haha, or let's use a fresher term, capitalists. Their social attributes determine this. This is a group of people.
The profit-seeking groups are destined to be on the opposite side of social development and even the public."
The so-called "meat-eaters cannot afford to be far-sighted" is probably unavoidable in every era. Stoker thought. Unless the times really change completely!
“Of course, this is my family’s opinion, so in the paper, I always use the word ‘referenceable’.” Probably because he was afraid that the professors’ views would be unacceptable, Stoker quickly added another sentence.
“So, your conclusion is...” asked another human professor named Kramer Mine.
"This kind of enterprise that is autonomous and collectively owned by workers may represent the future development direction of enterprises and factories. By analogy, it can be extended to all walks of life in society, and perhaps it will form a necessary way of life." Wow! Finally said
It came out. As soon as he said these words, Seldy Stock suddenly felt extremely relaxed.
The professors looked at each other and started discussing again. This time it seemed to be more intense than before. But I don’t know why, but this time, Stoker was really not nervous at all.
"The problem at the Red Maple Factory is not necessarily universal. It only occurs in industrial manufacturing, and it does not mean that it is universal in other fields. In agriculture, it may involve land, or workers may have other ideas. This is
More and more adequate social investigations are needed.”
Professor Gada raised his nose a little higher, and Professor Mine also showed an expression of approval.
"How about taking this topic as your research direction?" The speaker was Sir Algate, who was in charge of the defense review this time. He was not only a senior professor at Shire University, but also a lifelong noble of the empire. It can be said that,
The person who can decide the fate of Stoker's studies now is not his mentor Professor Gada, nor Professor Myne who has always admired him, but Professor Algaier, who has always been a bit old-school in his thinking and stubborn in his style.
Stoke originally thought that his biggest enemy would be Sir Algaier in this defense, but he did not expect that the other party would be quite friendly.
"Don't get me wrong, I still don't agree with your conclusion. According to your theory, the existence of private operators has been eliminated in the process of economic development... It is really hard for me to imagine such a model. However, I must also admit that,
Your conclusion is indeed based on sufficient evidence and is a logical and reasonable conclusion." Sir Algaier put his hand on his chest, which is the etiquette of imperial scholars when meeting scholars of the same status.
"I used to think that you took a break from school for so long and wasted your energy and time in a small factory on the border. This is really a waste of life and stupid! But now when I look at your thesis, I find that you have always been studying social science.
Students have to strictly demand themselves. Difficult experiences have become sufficient arguments and have molded you. Such a scholarly attitude is worthy of respect."
The professors showed kind aunty smiles. Well, okay, of course you can recognize the smiles of the two Tirero professors. As for Professor Gada’s expression, you can only tell it through his nose.
Stoke finally realized something, and his heart was immediately filled with joy.
"You will get a master's degree from Shire Memorial University before July this year. However, your life is still long, and completing your studies is just the beginning. You are very talented, and I hope you can enter the university to teach, and
Further studies!"
Being a teacher at Shire Memorial University? This way you can meet your daily needs and continue to study for a Ph.D.?
In the past, Stoker would have accepted it with joy. However, Stoker was surprised to find that he was not as happy as he imagined.
An earthling who was born into an ordinary family, through his own efforts, finally got a teaching position at a prestigious university in the empire. In the future, he may also obtain the right to settle in the empire and even nationality, and become a professor. If the research report is widely recognized by the society, it may be even
Being hired as a consultant by the Prime Minister's Office, chatting and laughing with the nobles who rule half of the galaxy. This is definitely the pinnacle of life that I couldn't even imagine before.
But, is this really what I want?
“…I, can I think about it?” Stoker said.
“Of course. Such a big thing requires careful thinking.”
The professors ended their defense in this way. Before Stork left the classroom, Professor Gada raised his nose and said in a loud voice: "Go and celebrate. There are many interesting activities at the Midsummer God of War Festival. You deserve this."
.”
When Seldy Stock walked to the school gate, he suddenly realized that he was now a master's degree in economics from Shire Memorial University. With such an academic degree, one can find a high-paying job almost anywhere in the universe.
Work. Theoretically, he has completed the class jump.
…Class! Stoker muttered this word that he had just learned more than half a year ago at the corner of his mouth. He thought for a moment and then walked towards the headquarters of the Tianyu International Students Association.
The office of the International Students Association of the Community International Students in Tianyu is a three-story small building located on the edge of the residential area of the local university town. This small building is already a bit old. In its earliest days, it was the highest example of the empire dream of the people on earth.
——The mansion of Gongsun, Earl of Yongdi, in the imperial capital, was later given to the Chamber of Commerce and became the so-called Earth People's Guild Hall. After the Earth became an independent nation, it became the office of the Overseas Students Association.
When Stock entered the room, he found that the president Tan Jize was not there, only Killian, the youngest secretary in the meeting, and Mota, the biggest secretary in the meeting. These two people who were the most disproportionate in size were each having a glass of ice.
Kuoluo occupied the living room and was watching the news on TV. They were watching the news very seriously, and they didn't even notice Stoker coming in.
Stoke just thought about scaring the two of them loudly, but he was immediately attracted by the picture projected on the wall.
It was the scene of a press conference, and the core of the picture was a young lieutenant colonel wearing the uniform of an Earth officer.
"Yu Lian has gone to...uh, lieutenant colonel? Isn't this too fast?" Stoker was surprised to see an acquaintance here, and then he saw "Community in the Sky" on the subtitles on the side of the screen.
Embassy, Resident Assistant to the Attaché, Naval Lieutenant Colonel Yu Lian" such information.
"Oh, he has come to be a military attache?" Stoker was very happy. He immediately thought of calling Yu Lian and asking him out for a drink. If he hadn't thought that he would be very busy now, maybe
I already picked up the phone.
“Lieutenant Colonel Yu Lian, do you have any special mission as an assistant to the military attache this time?”
“What kind of demands does this represent for the community?”
“I am here, of course, for the peace and stability of the entire universe. I urgently hope to see the empire’s responsibility and ambition as a responsible big country.” Yu Lian on the TV talked to the reporters.
Storr wanted to laugh. In fact, Yu Lian's face in the picture was full of sincerity. Everyone thought he was a gentle and gentle gentleman. But the more he looked like this, the more he wanted to laugh.
Most of the reporters thought this was really a diplomatic rhetoric without any highlights, but a few people showed expressions as if they were constipated, and they were obviously well-informed people.
Stoker wanted to laugh even more. Although he didn't know exactly what Yu Lian did during the more than a month after he left the Red Maple Factory, the Far Coast Military Region almost entered a state of combat readiness in the following period, so he could still guess to some extent.
a little.
At this time, I heard Killian say: "It's really strange, why would an assistant military attaché hold a special press conference when he takes office?"
"This... is naturally because the captain is very famous! There will be many imperial reporters who want to interview him."
Killian felt that this was not very convincing. Of course he knew that Yu Lian was the hero during Navy Day, but more than half a year had passed, how many people in the community could still remember it? Let alone the empire.
.
“…and there were so many media attending the press conference, including people from several major newspapers.”
"That's why I said, the captain is very powerful! Maybe there are many admirers in the empire." Motta said proudly.
Killian glanced at the big black fat man next to him, twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly, and sighed: "Ender, Ender, why are you called Ender?"
“What?” The big black fat man was dumbfounded.
“Why can’t you just call me Annie?”
“So what are you talking about?” Mota still didn’t understand.
Stoke said helplessly: "He said that if you are a woman, you can work as a secretary for the captain you admire most."
Motta was stunned for a moment, and it took nearly three seconds before he screamed, but before that, Killian had already run towards the second floor laughing.
The big black fat man jumped towards the opponent. His speed was really not slow, but due to his size, he still looked a bit bulky. At first glance, he looked like a big iron ball rolling around indoors.
After a while of fighting, Stoker asked: “Where is Lao Tan?”
“Go to the police station to get the other party’s disclaimer,” Killian said.
Motta suddenly puffed up his chest proudly.
“You are so proud! You are in the biggest trouble here.” Killian said.
The boy was talking about the last celestial ball game played by foreign students.
In that game, the youth of the Earth achieved a brilliant victory 14 to 6! Of course, on the one hand, it is because everyone already likes to get together to play celestial ball, and more importantly, this year the team added a Cristiano
·Messi’s overseas student. He is a recently retired Tianqiu professional player. Facing a group of amateur opponents, he will naturally kill everyone.
The Bakvi Birds couldn't afford to lose, and the Catai people who came to the streets to show friendship to the Bakvi Birds behaved even more fiercely than the Birds.
The conflict on the court eventually spread to the off-court. Before the fight started on the court, the spectators started to fight first.
As a result, Andre Motta, who was unable to play, also began to kill everyone off the court. With his own tonnage, with the most rigorous military training he had undergone for half a year, and with his own experience of blood, just this
The fierceness is not something that ordinary international students can hold. He held a beer bottle and knocked down the two most ferocious-looking Cathay men in the first moment, and then did not give them another chance.
All in all, the international students of the community achieved a complete victory both on and off the court.
However, this conflict still resulted in at least double-digit casualties. Thanks to the fact that no one's injuries were serious, strictly speaking, no one was responsible. In addition, Tan Jize, an old man with outstanding mobility and organizational skills,
With the big brother running around, this matter was finally resolved properly.
Even the heaviest penalty for Mota was a fine of 100 gold dragons, three whips, and a demerit (which could be eliminated) from the university.
The fine was paid by everyone together. The empire did not abolish corporal punishment, but Mota was rough-skinned and thick-skinned, so he was not afraid. After being whipped three times and lying down for a day, he is now alive and kicking.
"Also, the cultural exchange group that came from China recently included several cultural celebrities." Killian reported a few names and sneered a few times: "They said they were going to hold a lecture or something, and I hope we can take the lead in contacting Tian
For the international students in the area, the president has to go directly to them for a meeting after finishing his work at the police station. Those few are not well-known in the empire, so maybe the Earth immigrants and international students will be interested."
Wouldn’t it be quite embarrassing if no one went, or if too few people went? This is why we need the help of international students.
“I will go to Mr. Qi’s lecture,” Mota said with a smile.
“You also want to go to your captain’s lecture, right?” Killian mocked.
Surprisingly, this time, Motta didn't have any dissatisfaction, and said, "So what? What I am most proud of now is that I have been under the captain's command for half a year. The most regrettable thing is that I am only under the captain's command."
I have been following orders for half a year. However, I don’t want my only useful experience in the future to be the six months under the captain before I came to study in the empire. The captain must not want such a useless crew member, right?
?If I can listen to his teachings again and learn even one percent of his heroic spirit, a mortal like me will have qualities that I can be proud of for the rest of my life."
Yeah! If I were there, I would also want to go. Stoke thought to himself.
Killian looked at the big fat man, then at Stoker, and finally felt a little moved: "...It sounds like he is a textbook figure. So, when can we invite him out to have a meeting with everyone?
?Aren’t you both very familiar with him?”
In fact, both Motta and Stocker had Yulian's personal contact information, but the problem now was that neither of them knew whether they should call that number.
“How about I send an email to the captain first?” Mota said cautiously.
Stoker nodded and was about to say something, but at this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared outside the window. Looking carefully, he saw a strong Cathay man with a ferocious and crazy face, holding a hand in his hand.
He was holding a rifle impressively.
Stoke and Killian were stunned immediately. They had never seen such a scene in their lives. No matter how smart they were, their minds were blanked by the sudden development.
At this time, the only one who was still able to move was naturally Andre Motta, who had actually received military training, heard the sound of gunfire, and even been on the battlefield. He was far from being a battle-experienced person, but he was
He reacted instinctively, and his fat and even bloated body was as agile as a cheetah at this moment.
Motta did not turn himself into a shield, but turned his body into a weapon. He smashed the window glass on the first floor and rushed directly towards the Cathay man.
The huge body successfully blocked all the Kaitai people’s shots.
