Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 304 Preparing to go abroad
Wei Yunzhi's sincere little thoughts are the most difficult to resist.

Li Yan took a long time to reply: "Thank you."

Wei Yunzhi just responded with a happy expression.

Very restrained.

But if there is nothing special, why should we restrain ourselves?

"What are you giggling at?"

Everyone had been hanging out offline for more than a month, so naturally they had become quite familiar with each other. Lai Yining was a very carefree person, so he asked very directly.

"Do I have it?" Li Yan asked.

"But it's so damn good... It's radiating a dazzling glow of happiness."

Li Yan suppressed the corner of his mouth and said, "Nothing. My junior brothers and sisters came to ask about the art performance and wanted me to be a guest performer. I said I'm in Beijing so please don't disturb me."

He is an absolute god-like figure in his first grade.

"Cultural performance?" He Zixiang asked at the right time.

So Li Yan began to tell the story, and everyone twisted and turned on the bed like maggots.

Li Yan said it was difficult to comment, as they were clearly all talking about how he learned quickly and acted cool, so what were these people so excited about?
"I can't wait to hear the story of handsome Li conquering Leng Mei."

Deng Yudi answered his doubts.

Li Yan had a complicated expression and continued to tell his story.

When Wei Yunzhi, the lead dancer of Rongxi Dance Team, came to the rescue, the group of people danced even more crazily.

"Handsome and rich, talented and versatile. Some people's first year of junior high school was even more exciting than my first year of high school!" He Zixiang sighed.

"Be bolder. We won't have this experience when we go to Huazhong University to study as freshmen next year." Lai Yining sighed.

"It's a pity that Yan Shen is too young, so we don't have the chance to be college classmates." Deng Yudi did look a little disappointed.

"There is no place for trouble." Li Yan shrugged, "But if you want the Chuang Clan's test bench or even the laboratory, you'll have to find time to come to New Taipei."

"I'll go after the competition!" Lai Yining was very excited, "Xiang Shen, are you going?"

"I need to ask my family...if it's just the four of us..."

"Don't worry, New Taipei City will provide you with the best standards. If the four of us can take first place in the total team score as scheduled, Chuangzu will let you experience the treatment of a leadership inspection and research visit." Li Yan said with a smile.

"Is it that outrageous?" Deng Yudi didn't quite believe it.

"Isn't that your and Yan Shen's home court?" Lai Yining laughed, "Why are you showing your weakness to Di Shen?"

Deng Yudi waved his hands repeatedly, "That's not the case. It has nothing to do with me. Xinbei is Li Yan's home court."

Indeed.

After so much trouble, the New Taipei City Cultural Bureau finally released Li Yan and Lin Heng’s album "Singing Song Ci" when several major middle schools held art performances.

As a major product of the "New Taipei Traditional Culture Promotion Month", the Cultural Bureau has provided sufficient resources.

TV interviews—the material was recorded hastily by Li Yan in October, newspaper reports, Weibo interactions, music critics writing reviews…

In fact, Deputy Director Li did not have too many expectations for this album at the beginning. He just thought the quality was very good and thought it was at least an impressive "achievement".

But several music critics gave it high praise after listening to it, and were even more shocked when they learned that the creator was actually a second-year junior high school student.

This gave Deputy Director Li great confidence.

At first I thought I should pick out the good parts from the music reviews and polish them up.

I didn't expect that I would have to change some of the exaggerated statements in the article to prevent others from thinking that they were all water army comments.

Within a few days of being released, these songs became quite famous in New Taipei City.

Once professionals got involved, they could see the effort put into the song more and more, and they all posted on Weibo to praise these two talented junior high school students. Even Bai Mudan specially forwarded the Cultural Bureau's Weibo to emphasize her role as an accompanist.

Lin Heng was so happy that he kept reposting various messages and writing some memoirs on Weibo. He had a lot of fun interacting with others, and his number of fans exceeded 2,000.

But he actually had a lot of questions that he couldn't answer, and to be honest, his level of participation was not very high.

Xiong Guojun also realized the meaning of life. He printed out relevant news and Weibo posts every day and showed them to his father, "What your son does is not meaningless!"

However, his interaction was rather boring. He kept talking about very technical stuff and no one could really understand him.

Everyone knows that the soul figure is indeed Li Yan.

Li Yan had been responding to compliments from his good friends on QQ until Wei Yunzhi mentioned Weibo, and then he remembered it.

So almost a week after the song was released, Li Yan "coldly" reposted the Cultural Bureau's Weibo and wrote:

"I collaborated with Ah Hengjun on a few songs @林恒恒恒@小草莓 also went to the Little Bear to eat melons"

Then this Weibo post exploded.

Lin Heng directly sent a message to Li Yan on QQ: "Boss, if you need me in the future, I will be there at your service and will never refuse."

Li Yan's own Weibo was filled with all kinds of star-chasing comments like "appeared", "Ahhhhh", "God Yan is here", and some people were begging Li Yan to sing some songs and post on Weibo. Anyway, the Cultural Bureau's Weibo post, which originally had only more than 500 reposts, suddenly increased to nearly 2,000.

The purpose of everyone forwarding the post is basically: "This is my buddy/classmate/senior/junior Li Yan, isn't he awesome?"

A large-scale act of pretending.

Deputy Director Li's operational targets were met in no time. Even at the year-end summary meeting, the Director of the Department of Culture specifically mentioned Li Yan's name.

Li Yan's presence is gradually spreading from New Taipei City to Linjiang.

Everyone is curious about what else he can do.

The teachers, who are becoming more and more nervous as the international competition draws closer, are also looking forward to this event.

A junior high school student won a gold medal or even first place in the Youth Information Olympiad International Competition... this is an amazing record.

No other country has ever done this, and Li Yan's existence makes it possible for this record to remain in China.

This is the biggest motivation for the teachers in this training session.

The first day of 2010, starting from when I received my down jacket...

"Canada is colder than here, so we will go there five days in advance and have to adjust to the time difference of half a day. We must keep warm." Although Teacher Liu is experienced, this is his first time participating in a competition held in winter.

"I thought that if the exam was moved to winter, we would go to a warm place to take the exam." Lai Yining tried on a down jacket, "but in the end we ended up going to freezing Canada."

"Just keep warm. The University of Waterloo has heaters in the dormitories and exam rooms." Teacher Liu was busy distributing daily necessities to everyone. "Rest well in the next few days. It's not easy to adjust to the time difference. There's no need to review... Just keep a good attitude."

"Actually, I've always wanted to complain... University of Waterloo, this name is not very auspicious." Deng Yudi said.

"This kind of sliding is not that kind of sliding." Li Yan said.

"Will there be any interesting processes?" He Zixiang asked.

"Visiting a university?" Teacher Liu smiled. He was usually quite serious, and it was hard for him to adapt to playing the role of a kind father. "There should be other tours, such as visiting Niagara Falls."

"Wow!"

These are all experiences I have never had in my previous life, Li Yan sighed to himself.

"Don't get too excited," Teacher Liu said seriously. "Don't underestimate the time difference. The process is exactly the same as the national competition. Based on past experience, it's not much different from going to other cities to take the exam. You'll still be in school most of the time, but you'll have more opportunities to interact with foreign students."

Communicate with foreign students...

Everyone suddenly looked at Li Yan.
