Starting from a top student and marching towards the sea of ​​stars

Chapter 58 Enough Sincerity

Ning Chen took out his mobile phone and found that it was the call from the instructor Zhang Kun.

Ning Chen answered the phone: "Director Zhang."

"Ning Chen, congratulations on your excellent results in the autumn competition! You not only won honor for yourself, but also added luster to our Shengzhou University!"

"Thank you, Director Zhang, and thank you to the school for your careful training." Ning Chen said politely.

"Ning Chen, tonight our Dean Liu is going to welcome you and celebrate the honor you have brought to the college and the school. I will meet you in your dormitory at 5:[-] p.m. and we will go there together. You can wait for me in the dormitory when the time comes."

Hearing that Zhang Kun suddenly mentioned the dean's invitation to dinner, Ning Chen subconsciously wanted to refuse.

On the one hand, Ning Chen just promised to invite her roommates to dinner tonight, on the other hand, Ning Chen doesn't really like such official occasions.

But after all, it was the dean of the college who personally invited him, and there were likely to be many important things to discuss during this meal, so Ning Chen would definitely not be able to refuse casually.

"Okay, Director Zhang, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Ning Chen said helplessly:

"I'm sorry, Director Zhang just called me and said that Dean Liu will welcome me tonight. So can we postpone this meal until tomorrow?"

Hearing Ning Chen's words, everyone also felt very understanding of Ning Chen.

"It's okay, Dean Liu invites you, of course you have to go."

"It doesn't matter which day we are, you can't run away anyway, hehe."

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Kun came to Ning Chen's dormitory on time, and took Ning Chen to the place for dinner.

The reception banquet in the evening is set at Jiangshan Yufu outside the Shengzhou University. This restaurant is considered to be the highest-grade restaurant around Shengzhou University, and the per capita consumption is [-] to [-].

In her previous life, Ning Chen only went to eat here once, and it was after finishing her graduation defense that the teacher in the experimental group treated her to dinner.

Zhang Kun took Ning Chen to the reserved private room, and not long after, Liu Xu, the dean of the School of Material Science and several other leaders of the school, also arrived.

In this life, Ning Chen had never met the leaders of these colleges, so Zhang Kun introduced them to Ning Chen one by one.

"Ning Chen, sit down quickly. Teacher Song, tell the waiter that the food is ready."

In front of Ning Chen, several college leaders acted very close to each other and showed no airs of leadership.

As Ning Chen had expected, Liu Xu and others first expressed praise and congratulations to Ning Chen for his achievements, hoping that Ning Chen could continue to work hard.

No one was drinking at the dinner table. Ning Chen thought it might be because they felt that they were still young, or that such an occasion was not suitable for drinking.

After everyone ate for a while, Liu Xu said:
"Ning Chen, the school has formulated a reward plan for this competition before. According to the previous reward plan, you can get a total of 33 bonus."

Ning Chen nodded when he heard this. This was indeed the same as his previous calculation.

"Afterwards, I discussed it with other school leaders and decided to put it all together and give you a reward of 50 yuan. And considering that your results this time are particularly outstanding, this bonus is 50 yuan after tax."

Hearing Liu Xu's words, Ning Chen suddenly became excited.Normally, the rewards of this kind of competition are windfall income and need to pay 20.00% personal income tax.

Calculated in this way, Ning Chen could only get an after-tax bonus of 26.4.

But after such a modification, Ning Chen's bonus was almost doubled.

"Thank you to the school, and to Dean Liu and the school leaders for their affirmation of me. I will definitely continue to work hard."

"Haha, it's rare for Shengzhou University to have such a good seed like you. Ning Chen, we also hope that through your example effect, Shengzhou University can achieve more brilliant results."

Through the conversations at the dinner table, Ning Chen keenly discovered some potential information.

Originally, Ning Chen thought that this dinner was just a dinner inside the academy.

But now Ning Chen felt more and more that there might be tasks assigned by the school behind this, at least they should know what happened tonight.

After talking about the competition bonus, Liu Xu continued:
"Ning Chen, based on the assessment of your ability, the school suggests that you shorten your undergraduate study time. According to your ability, two to three years should be enough to complete the undergraduate part of your studies."

"In addition, in addition to the first major in materials science, the school will also provide you with the opportunity to study for a double degree in mathematics. You don't need to take classes, you only need to pass the corresponding subject exams and complete the graduation defense."

"Afterwards, the school will arrange for you the opportunity of graduate school or direct Ph.D., and you can choose your major freely according to your future situation. I heard from Mr. Zhang that although you are very good at mathematics, you have no intention of changing your major yet. If you can It is also very good to continue to study the direction of materials after making achievements in materials science.”

Liu Xu's words further verified Ning Chen's conjecture just now. These things cannot be fully realized only by the power of one college.

"Okay, Dean Liu, I also hope that I can finish my undergraduate studies sooner."

Ning Chen readily accepted Liu Xu's suggestion. After all, judging from Ning Chen's current ability, spending four years at the undergraduate level is indeed too much.

As for the choice of future direction, Ning Chen has not yet fully determined, but with the help of the system, Ning Chen feels that he can try in more directions.

But as long as he has a good mathematical foundation, Ning Chen will definitely be able to get started in almost all science and engineering fields.

Ning Chen was quite happy that the school could offer these conditions to Ning Chen.

In any case, Ning Chen's wish to stay in Shengzhou University is one aspect, and Shengzhou University must show Ning Chen enough sincerity.

"Ning Chen, besides these, is there anything else the school can help you with?"

Ning Chenxin said that it would be even better if she could give herself more bonuses, or provide herself with some interest-free loans.

Of course, Ning Chen would definitely not be able to say such words. The school had already made an exception and provided him with nearly double the bonus. If he asked for this again, he would be too greedy.

As for grants and interest-free loans, Ning Chen also felt that they were not suitable for him now.

Scholarships are generally given to students from poor families. Although Ning Chen's family is not rich, it is definitely not poor. There are more students who need this scholarship than Ning Chen.

Interest-free loans are mostly provided to students who start businesses. Ning Chen has no idea of ​​starting a business yet, so he can't borrow all the interest-free loans and use the money to buy a house.

After thinking about it, Ning Chen thought, let's start with some small things.
