Start as a top student and move towards the stars and the sea

Ning Chen took out his cell phone and looked at it, and found that it was a call from the conductor Zhang Kun.

Ning Chen answered the phone: "Director Zhang."

"Ning Chen, congratulations on your excellent results in the autumn competition! You have not only brought glory to yourself, but also to our Shengzhou University!"

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

"Ning Chen, our Dean Liu is going to greet you tonight and celebrate your honor for the college and the school. I will go to your dormitory to find you at 5pm. We will go there together. You can just wait for me in the dormitory then."

Hearing Zhang Kun suddenly mention that the dean invited him to dinner, Ning Chen subconsciously wanted to refuse.

On the one hand, Ning Chen had just promised to treat his roommates to dinner in the evening. On the other hand, Ning Chen didn't really like such official occasions.

But after all, the dean of the college personally invited him, and there were probably many important things to talk about at 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 called me just now and said that Dean Liu is going to pick me up tonight. So can we postpone this meal to tomorrow?"

After hearing Ning Chen's words, everyone felt very understanding of Ning Chen.

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

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

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

The evening banquet was scheduled at Jiangshan Yufu outside Shengzhou University. This restaurant is considered to be the highest-end restaurant around Shengzhou University, with an average consumption of one or two hundred per person.

Ning Chen had only been here for dinner once in her previous life. After completing her graduation defense, the teacher from the experimental group treated her to a meal.

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

In this life, Ning Chen had never met these college leaders, 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 that maybe they thought they were too 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 previously formulated a reward plan for this competition. According to the previous reward plan, you can get a total bonus of 330,000 yuan."

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 five hundred thousand. And considering that your results this time are particularly outstanding, this bonus is five hundred thousand after tax. "

Hearing Liu Xu's words, Ning Chen suddenly became excited.

Normally, rewards from such competitions are considered unexpected income and require a 20% personal income tax.

Based on this calculation, Ning Chen can only receive an after-tax bonus of 264,000.

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

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

"Haha, it is rare for Shengzhou University to have a talent like you. Ning Chen, we also hope that through your role model effect, Shengzhou University can achieve more brilliant results."

Through everyone's conversation at the dinner table, Ning Chen keenly discovered some potential information.

Originally, Ning Chen thought that this dinner was just an internal dinner in the academy.

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

After talking about the competition bonus, Liu Xu continued:

"Ning Chen, based on the school's assessment of your ability, it is recommended that you shorten your undergraduate studies. Depending on your ability, two to three years should be enough to complete your undergraduate studies."

"In addition, in addition to the first major of materials science, the school will also provide you with the opportunity to pursue a double major in mathematics. You do not need to take classes. You only need to pass the exam in the corresponding subject and complete the graduation defense."

"After that, the school will arrange opportunities for you to pursue postgraduate studies or direct doctoral studies. If you want to major, you can freely choose according to your future situation. I heard from Teacher Zhang that although you are particularly good at mathematics, you have no idea of ​​​​changing your major yet. If you can Having made some achievements in materials science, it is also good to continue studying the direction of materials.”

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 complete my undergraduate studies quickly."

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

As for the choice of future direction, Ning Chen is not completely sure yet, 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.

No matter what, Ning Chen hopes to continue to stay at Shengzhou University. Shengzhou University must also give Ning Chen enough sincerity.

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

Ning Chenxin said that it would be 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 this. The school had already provided him with nearly double the bonus as an exception. If he made such a request again, he would be too greedy.

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

Bursaries 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 than Ning Chen who need this bursary.

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

After thinking about it, Ning Chen felt that it would be better to start with some small things.
