Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 405
"Carter Black?"

"I regret to inform you that we do not offer Chinese language courses for the time being. So your foreign language subjects may need to be changed."

In the office of Provost Myers, Carter heard the sad news.

"How about Japanese? It is also one of the East Asian language systems. But I personally do not recommend that you learn Japanese, which will not help you experience the diversity of world cultures. I suggest that you consider European language systems, such as French and Spanish. languages, both of which are widely spoken around the world!"

This, Carter knows.One for Africa and one for South America!

It's just that these two places, in the current view of Carter, belong to the kind of hanging money.A continent rich in pirates and drug lords, but no decent people at all anyway.This is completely worthless to a businessman like me who is "duty and responsible"!

Why learn it?

If you don't learn it, what do you learn?
"Mr. Myers, does Yale really have no Chinese courses? No way?!"

Carter tried to struggle.
Chinese is so easy, isn't it also a foreign language? !To describe the current domestic regulations that require a CET-[-] English certificate to graduate from a university, someone in his card can pass the Chinese Specialist Eight in his freshman year and directly meet the graduation requirements.

Thinking about the days when he had a headache for CET-[-], Carter especially wanted to experience the joy of those who got the language certificate in freshman year, which used to only belong to the group of top students!

"I really don't have this one. I know that your Chinese level is very high. The admissions office has given us your files and information. We hope that you can gain more knowledge and insights at Yale! So, change it! "

Mr. Miles shook his head and said: Go to Nima's dream of being a top student!

"Okay, French then."

Helpless, Carter had no choice but to agree.
"Very good, and then the next question. The piano performance course taught by Steven Vargas may be relatively popular, and there is a risk that the course will be full. In order to ensure the quality of the course, you can accept alternatives, that is, when you can't choose , replace it with Professor Kirsten Patil's piano lessons? Professor Patil's level."

"Okay, you can figure it out."

Just finished his course selection hastily, and Carter, who walked out of Mr. Miles' office, shook his head self-deprecatingly: I really have the style of an academic bastard.
In the following days, after experiencing the hustle and bustle of the school season, it gradually returned to normal.

Every morning, I go to the West Stadium for training, and then rush back to the hospital to wash and have a meal. At noon, I go to various colleges to taste different foods, and stay in the dormitory at night to communicate about the situation in my hometown in Georgia.Classes and council affairs will be adjusted according to needs, and they will be handled in the remaining free time outside of class.

The days are so fulfilling!
So much so that there are so many Yale campus activities, such as some performances, some small-scale get-togethers, etc., that Carter has no time to participate.And just as the boss Wozki said: Whenever nothing happens, something bigger often happens!

Carter remembered that it was September 9th, when he finished his get out of class as usual and planned to go to Davenport to cook with Rick.
"Black! Monument! Monument! Maya Lin refused to add American flags and military statues to the original building. What do you think?!"

"I just said that she has ulterior motives! See what you guys said? Don't you have anything to say now?!"

"Blake, you said her architectural design is eye-catching, so you support her! Now, in addition to keeping her eye-catching work, just add an American flag and a soldier statue in that tunnel , does this not affect its main building? She still refuses, do you still support her now?"

Originally, because of Carter's functional speech and the debate for a while, people are probably tired of the topic of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.In these days, it has somewhat disappeared, but who would have thought that this thing would actually "defraud a corpse" again? !
And compared to the previous discussion, because Carter once unequivocally supported Maya Lin's statement, how much limelight she had at the time, is now more embarrassing.
Just like the sentence of soul torture: on the premise of not affecting the original function of the building, why would you refuse to add the engraving pattern of the American flag?
For a time, the arrogance of the opposition was high.People point out that Maya Lin's move is just the exposure of his other intentions!Although she is an American citizen, she is not an American!

Even the conspiracy theory that she was secretly funded by foreign governments began to spread!

After this hot spot was transmitted to the Yale campus, there was a scene where Carter was besieged at this time.
Reluctantly put down the tableware in his hand, listening to the twittering in his ears, relying on the loud voice he trained in rotc.Carter shouted loudly:
"Sound off!"

"Don't make noise! ​​Talk about things! Come one by one, you! Tell me what happened outside first? Maya Lin refused to add the American flag pattern to her monument design, did she?"

The benefits of shouting "Quiet" every day are reflected at this time.

Apparently, these senior intellectuals in the Davenport restaurant didn't expect that a soldier like Carter would be mixed in among the scholars.
The four-eyed boy in the front row who was stunned by the yelling hadn't recovered yet. After hearing Carter's question, he subconsciously nodded.
hiss~
After getting an affirmative answer, Carter couldn't help but gasped.

This Maya Lin is cheating!

What are you so stubborn about? !
This means that Washington has agreed to follow Maya Lin's plan for construction, but only requires the American flag pattern to be added to the original black granite wall.
How big is this? !

Wouldn't it be embarrassing for you not to do this? !
"Blake! What else do you have to say now? She is not a master at all, she is just a villain with ulterior motives! You have been deceived!"

Just as Carter was nervously thinking about countermeasures, the Yale students who gradually came to their senses began to shout.

Admitting at this point that I was deceived, or that the previous statement was too arbitrary, seems like a good quick fix.It's just that, in this way, the little good start I had seems to be useless.
But directly refused, and insisted that Maya Lin is not what you think?

Conscience of heaven and earth, I don't even know who that Maya Lin is? !What does it look like?Where do you live? !

How to do this kind of guarantee? !

What if after this hair-raising, he gave himself the whole bigger news quietly, such as being directly exposed as a spy or something? !

Carter admitted that he was a bit stuck.No matter which option you choose, it seems that it is not good.

After weighing left and right, Carter made a decision:

"Please! I don't even know why you guys are so excited about this matter?"

"First of all, I just enrolled this year. From the first day I arrived at Yale until now, I haven't even met that Maya Lin, let alone heard about her design philosophy. How can I talk about it? Be deceived?"

"What I said before was just to give an evaluation of the perception and practicality of the two works from the perspective of a bystander. There is no need to go online. This is the first. Second, for the moment, Maya Lin Refused to add view of American flag event”

"You need to give me some time to let me know more about the whole picture before I can speak! Haven't you heard the saying: If you don't know the whole picture, don't comment?"

"Speaking without careful investigation is an irresponsible behavior in itself!"
