Feng Yu did not return to Bing City. He flew to Shanghai to visit Liu Michael's design company. Liu Michael had invited Feng Yu a few times, but Feng Yu did not have the time to visit. Although this company did not have a lot of investments and the profits were not high, but after Feng Yu's guidance, this company had turned from a loss-making company to a profitable company.
Feng Yu had two reasons for visiting the company. As the boss of the company, he had to show his face at least once a year. Also, Feng Yu wanted to see if there were any obvious flaws in this company. He wanted to let this company grow. In the future, the design industry will be making lots of money.
Currently, the design industry was still not booming. But luckily, the advertising industry was booming. This design company had received lots of advertising orders every month. This was also the company's main source of income.
Feng Yu met with the other 2 designers. They were also Liu Michael's partners. The 3 of them were of the same age and were older than Feng Yu. But in front of Feng Yu, they were very reserved.
Feng Yu told them that they could focus on product packaging design. This was the same as advertising design. In the next few years, this company will be the main source of profits for the design industry. The Chinese will soon realize the importance of product packaging. The packaging must be attractive, and people will want to take a closer look at the product.
The second requirement that Feng Yu gave to the design company was to hire more people. There were too few people now. How can the company develop with only a few people? The company must at least be the biggest design company in Shanghai. This way, the company's reputation will increase faster, and the design fees will be higher.
There was a saying that good wine does not fear the dark alley. But with better marketing, the company will be able to make more money.
This year, the Chief Architect had said that Shanghai will develop the Eastern District. Feng Yu decided to invest in some properties in the Eastern District. In the next 2 years, Shanghai's policies will be leaning towards this area, and there will be more companies. Buying an office building for rent was also a good investment.
After staying in Shanghai for a day, Feng Yu rushed to Beijing. On the same night, Wen Dongjun, Li Na, Zhang Han, and a few other students from Bing City's Third High School also arrived in Beijing.
Tomorrow was Monday, and they would go to their respective universities for interviews. There were several levels of successful interviews. The first level was, of course, for those who did not need to take the college entrance examination after the interview and were exempted from the entrance examination. The second level was for those whose scores were lowered by 100 points. The third level was for those whose scores were lowered by 50 points. Of course, there were also those who failed the interview and did not have a single point lowered.
The recommended students had all sorts of honors, such as the National Olympiad Math Champion, the National XX Competition First Prize, and some international awards. Of course, there were countless students like Feng Yu and the others who had obtained the provincial Outstanding High School Student Award.
If it was under normal circumstances, Feng Yu and the rest could at most lower their admission marks by 50 points. But with the Moscow University's Summer Camp, they could at least lower their admission marks by 100 points.
Feng Yu was recommended to Peking University, and Li Na was recommended to Beijing Normal University. Wen Dongjun and Zhang Han were recommended to Beijing University of Technology. Originally, the school had offered Liu Kun a recommendation to Tsinghua University, but he rejected it. This was because there were not many majors that he liked.
Feng Yu was crying when he heard about this. He was indeed a top student. There were people who rejected the recommendation. Why was there such a big difference between them?
With Feng Yu's results, it was a stretch for him to get into Peking University. The school had wanted to recommend Feng Yu to another university. For example, University of Posts and Telecommunications, Renmin University, etc. These were not bad. Especially the University of Foreign Languages. With Feng Yu's foreign language skills, it was not a problem for him to pass the interview.
But Feng Yu had told Sun Wenhai to only care about the recommendation. As long as he could pass the interview, he would definitely get into the university. Sun Wenhai did not need to care about anything else.
Feng Yu still had a trump card. All the universities, including Peking University, still had some tricks up their sleeves. Although Feng Yu's results were average and did not have any other talents, he was rich.
Sir Shaw had donated two school buildings to Peking University last year. It was the Earth Building and Law Building. But now, these two buildings were not completed, and the government still needed to invest more than 10 million RMB.
If Feng Yu was willing to build a dormitory for Peking University, he did not need to invest much. 2 million RMB would be enough. He could also use the name of the dormitory to promote the Wind and Rain brand. At the same time, he could also offer to recruit Feng Yu into Peking University. This was not too much, right?
Feng Yu had plans to build Wind and Rain and Tai Hua buildings all over China. But now, he only wanted to start in Bing City and its surrounding areas. He was not short of money now, and it was not difficult to donate two buildings at the same time.
On Monday at 8 am, Feng Yu arrived at Peking University's interview venue. It was an ordinary classroom, and it was even a little old. It could not be compared to the university classrooms in his future life. From the current condition of one of the best universities in China, one could see what the other universities in China were like in this era. Feng Yu was more confident in using money to recruit students.
Everyone said that the interview questions for guaranteed entry students were the same as the interview questions for government officials. It was even more difficult than the interview questions for foreign companies in his future life. Feng Yu could tell this from the expressions of the students who walked out of the interview room.
All the students who came to Peking University for the interview were the top students in their respective schools. But the interview lasted for only 5 minutes.
But Feng Yu was not worried at all. He did not feel any pressure.
"Bing City Third High, Feng Yu. Come in for the interview."
Feng Yu walked in. It was a spacious classroom. There was only one chair in the middle for Feng Yu. In front of him was a row of tables and chairs, and behind them were 5 interviewing teachers. From their expressions, they seemed to be unhappy with the answers of the students in front of them.
After Feng Yu introduced himself, the interviewing teacher sitting in the middle asked: "You had participated in the Soviet Union's Summer Camp. How is your Russian? I am not talking about your test results. I am talking about your Russian."
This question was asked in Russian. The interviewing teacher wanted to test Feng Yu.
Feng Yu replied in Russian without hesitation: "I have no problems with listening, reading, and writing. I had even translated Russian legal contracts before."
"It also states that your English is good. Do you know two foreign languages?" Another interviewing teacher asked in English.
Feng Yu replied in English: "I want to study overseas in the future. That's why I learned English by myself. Similarly, I have no problems with listening, reading, and writing."
The few interviewing teachers were surprised. This student was not ordinary. He was proficient in two foreign languages. Looking at his resume, his parents were from the countryside. This kid was ambitious! But his results were not good. He could only be considered excellent and not the best.
The few interviewing teachers discussed for a while and decided to ask Feng Yu one last question. After that, they will decide if they want to give him a guaranteed placement or lower the admission marks.
"Feng Yu, one last question. What do you think of the Soviet Union's economy in recent years?"
This question was also the most difficult question of the day. None of the students in front of them could answer this question. They either did not know how to answer this question, or they did not know how to answer. They wanted to see if this Feng Yu, who was proficient in Russian, could answer this question to their satisfaction. If his answers were good, then they would be exempted from the interview!
Feng Yu laughed when he heard this question. He might not be able to answer other questions, but he was an expert in answering these questions!
