Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 1128. A successful start and a complete victory

He arrived at school quickly and learned from other classmates in the library that his classmates who were also studying business administration in the Economics Department had already received their test results. Unfortunately, until he had to go home to receive the engineer, the results of the five subjects he took were not released.

The test results here have not been released yet, and the balance for digging the pond over there is still being deposited in.

When he got home, the operator's car had just parked in the open space in front of the landlord's door.

The engineer conducted a very detailed survey. Considering that the landlord had many requirements, he continued to discuss with the landlord and Dong Qiangqiang. The advantage of full communication is that it saves time. When the appointment was made, he said it would take an hour and indeed a plan was produced in an hour.

The plan is similar to what Dong Qiangqiang learned when he consulted on Saturday: the broadband is routed along the inside of the eaves to the window of the first-floor storage room, and holes are drilled in the foam between the window frame and the cement wall to allow the network cable to enter the house without damaging the structure of the house. After entering the house, the network cable is connected to the wireless router, and a network cable is separated from the wireless router. If the landlord uses a desktop computer, the network cable is connected to the desktop computer. If the landlord buys an independent monitoring device with a display, it is connected to the device. In order to achieve the effect of network coverage of the entire house, a wireless expansion router is installed in the middle of the corridors on the first and second floors. A high-pixel camera is installed at the front door, corridor and backyard. All cameras are connected to the wireless router via wireless. The camera is nailed to the wooden strips on the roof. If it is not needed in the future, a new wooden strip can be replaced. The camera has a special account and password that allows the landlord and Dong Qiangqiang to watch the situation at home in real time through the Internet when they are not at home.

The engineer finally said: If the landlord can sign the contract and pay the money in the morning, he can bring people to install it as early as the afternoon, and the home can have internet access in the afternoon.

The other party is a well-known German company in the industry, and she personally took the lead in discussing the plan. When laying the wiring, no holes were drilled for doors or windows. Although nails were used for the camera, it was acceptable. The overall cost was also within the budget, and the landlord was very satisfied with the plan.

She called Dong Qiangqiang aside and made it clear that it was Dong Qiangqiang who would sign the contract with the operator, and she would only bear the one-time costs of her part of the hardware, such as cameras and surveillance equipment.

Dong Qiangqiang was originally worried that the landlord would find fault with him, for example, that the camera could only be installed with nails instead of nail-free glue for safety reasons. He prepared various response tactics, but the signing of the contract went so smoothly that he found out that the landlord was not a bad person, but was just picky about certain things. He was very happy that his wish was fulfilled, and signed the contract happily. However, he had a lot of things to deal with in the afternoon, so he tried to ask the landlord if he could accompany him throughout the afternoon. The landlord agreed generously. The engineer made an appointment with her for the installation in the afternoon and left the landlord's house with the signed contract.

Dong Qiangqiang brought the dried books he found in the flood and returned to the university for the second time that day. He had just parked the car and had not had time to get out when he received a call from Wang Shunan at the seaside: since she had a stable source of income to support her life this semester, she no longer had to worry about living off her savings. There was only one mountain left for her life and studies. The pressure dropped sharply, and her spirits also improved. She was nourished again. She learned the lesson of biting off more than she could chew last semester, and applied for fewer subjects. She was focused and went all out when reviewing. She just got the results at noon, and passed all the exams she applied for this semester in one go. She is especially grateful to Dong Qiangqiang and Duanmu.

Another good news is that the flood in Kiel has not yet receded, but Hamburg has resumed work and production. She has passed all her exams, and there is still early for the next semester to start, which is just enough time for her to work hard and prepare for the professional certificate course so that she can pay Dong Qiangqiang back as soon as possible.

Dong Qiangqiang was sincerely happy for Wang Shunan's achievements and praised her for her hard work and said it was not easy. At the same time, he advised her to spend money within her means and especially reminded her not to forget to share the good news with Duanmu.

The news that Wang Shunan had passed all the exams was like a silver needle that she was good at pricking Dong Qiangqiang's consciousness. He hung up the phone and ran straight to the library, eagerly opening the official website pages of the five subjects.

Perhaps the examination center somehow sensed the urgency of Dong Qiangqiang and other students, and finally stopped keeping everyone on suspense about the test results. Although not all of them were announced, some were finally released.

The first subject in Dong Qiangqiang's major that finally came out was the score of the elective course. He estimated it to be 1.7 points as soon as he entered the examination room, but the actual result was better than he expected: 1.3 (points).

This course is related to the business of catching cicadas, which is simply how he makes his living in the future. He was already very serious about learning it, and the training in Luxembourg has virtually become extracurricular tutoring for this subject. When he doesn't understand something, he can ask Duanmu and the teacher, truly achieving all-round learning. It is both unexpected and reasonable that he can get this result.

The sense of accomplishment that Dong Qiangqiang felt from the high scores did not last long. It was soon suppressed by the uneasiness brought about by the other four subjects whose results had not yet been announced. He felt like he was waiting for the final exam results to be announced before the end of the semester in China, and he felt unhappy. He thought that the Germans were extremely efficient. Why couldn't they announce all the results at once?
When Dong Qiangqiang went out in the morning, it was drizzling. When the engineers arrived, the drizzle turned to cloudy. When the contract was signed, the cloudy sky turned to overcast. When he got the results, the sun came out. He was in a good mood.

As usual, after getting the scores, he had to synchronize the information with his parents first. The reactions of Dong's father and mother were at two extremes: before hearing the results, Dong's father was much more nervous than Dong's mother, while Dong's mother didn't care at all about the score, and felt that as long as she could pass the exam and not delay graduation, it was enough.

Dong Qiangqiang is proud of the fact that his boasts to his father were verified and not refuted, and that he went back to China against his father's request before the start of the school year and did not delay his studies at all. Of course, Dong's father would not admit that his father's request was too conservative, but his son's excellent grades made him happy to listen to his son's harmless quibbling to show his magnanimity as a father. The family has a strong democratic atmosphere and there is no feudal dregs such as monarch-subject, father-son, etc.

Du Lan's reaction after hearing the results was somewhere between Dong's father and Dong's mother. She was naturally happy for him. After all, this was Dong Qiangqiang's first time taking an advanced exam, and getting off to a good start was a good thing. She had mixed news. The good news was that all her exams for this semester ended last week. As for whether she passed or not, she was not very confident, but she didn't want to think too much after the exam, so as to reduce the internal friction caused by repeated thinking without results. The bad news was that the floods in Munich and the surrounding areas were still surging, and transportation was inconvenient. She couldn't come to Trier to see Dong Qiangqiang for the time being, and could only wait until the water receded.

Talking about what happened this week, Dong Qiangqiang told Du Lan that the landlord had agreed to install the Internet after returning from a domestic trip. He had just signed the broadband contract in the morning, and the Internet should be available when he got home in the evening. Du Lan was not interested in discussing Internet access at home, but was more interested in Li Lei, her boyfriend's new neighbor and the class monitor in his university in China.

"Are you really not going to give him review material?"

"If I don't give him the pass, he won't resent me too much because he doesn't know whether I have passed or not. Even if he suspects, it's just a guess. If I give him the pass and he doesn't pass, he will definitely blame me. People are not worried about having too little but about inequality. He will definitely wonder why I exempted so many but he didn't. Instead of that, it's better not to give him the pass."

"Then why didn't you vote against the landlord when he asked for your opinion? Aren't you worried that he will become the next Walter White?"

"To be honest, I used to think that Lao Bai was a sensible person. He would not do anything unexpected. Worrying is useless. Li Lei will definitely do something unexpected. I will deal with it and let it go. All my energy is on studying and taking exams."

Du Lan sighed, "I feel more and more that your attitude towards the people around you really varies a lot."

"You mean I judge people by their appearance? I treat people with tinted glasses? How is that possible?" Dong Qiangqiang flatly denied and expressed solemn protest, "I am not that kind of person, absolutely not."

"Although you are not, do you have the same attitude towards Lao Bai, Lu Wei and Lu Shan, the girl studying medicine, Wang Shunan, the girl studying music, Tong Lele, Lei Lanting, and He Yangjin?"

"Attitudes vary from person to person, depending on how close or distant they are. That's normal." Dong Qiangqiang's face got a little hot for some reason. Did he think so too? "Is that a subtle criticism, Du Lan?"

"How can it be criticism? Everyone ranks people in their hearts according to their intimacy and trust with others," Du Lan exhaled briskly and asked in a very gentle tone, "I just wonder if my position in your heart is also at the front."

The two of them talked on the phone for a few more minutes before the call ended. Dong Qiangqiang sometimes felt that his long-distance relationship was not like a romantic relationship at all, but sometimes he felt that keeping this distance was not bad. As the saying goes, "far away smells good, near smells bad." If two people are in love and stay together every day, not only will it affect their studies, but their respective shortcomings will not be hidden for too long and will be exposed. If they don't get married after dating for a few years, they will break up soon.

Dong Qiangqiang had revised the report that Duanmu wanted, so he thought about going to Josephina's father to find out what Lao Bai had asked him to do. If he could lead a group to visit the ruins as Lao Bai had said, the harvest of this summer vacation would be acceptable.
