January 25th, Friday …
Pei Qian came to Counselor Zhang Wei's office.
It had been a long time since he last visited.
Typically, counselors would be busier in their third and fourth years. After all, they had to worry about the entire year. Some people wanted to apply for postgraduate studies, some wanted to find jobs, and some wanted to go abroad. Counselors were needed for all sorts of matters.
Naturally, students would come to the counselors more frequently.
However, Pei Qian was different. He did not have any requests in this regard.
Zhang Wei also looked for Pei Qian less and less.
Why? Perhaps it was because he was too embarrassed …
Previously, when Tengda was still relatively small, Zhang Wei had asked Pei Qian to help solve the employment problems of some of his seniors. Later on, Zhang Wei had been the middleman when he donated to needy students and looked for postgraduate students to help mark Tengda's recruitment exams.
However, Tengda was now ridiculously large. It was already the most valued enterprise in Jingzhou City. It was even subtly changing the employment and living environment of the entire Jingzhou City.
Even as a counselor, Zhang Wei was too embarrassed to ask the boss of such a huge company to come and go.
Zhang Wei knew very well what was going on. If anyone still treated Pei Qian as an ordinary student, there must be something wrong with their brains.
Zhang Wei was even a little conflicted. Should he inform the school leaders to receive Pei Qian the next time he came to school?
If Pei Qian had already graduated, given Tengda's current status in Jingzhou, it would be reasonable for the school leaders to receive him. However, Pei Qian was still a student.
That was really a pain in the ass.
Pei Qian came to the door of the office and found that there were already guests inside. He could vaguely hear the conversation inside.
There was a student cadre on duty outside. He was usually an officer of the school's student union. He was here to help the counselor run errands and do odd jobs.
Obviously, he did not know Pei Qian. He thought that Pei Qian was just a fourth-year student asking about graduation or postgraduate studies. After all, such things happened frequently.
Thus, he asked Pei Qian to sit on the sofa outside and wait for a while.
Pei Qian was not in a hurry. He sat on the sofa and casually picked up a school magazine from the side and flipped through it.
After a while, Zhang Wei's office door opened. Three people walked out, chatting and laughing.
"Senior Brothers, the venue for the lecture has been arranged. The time is set for three o 'clock this afternoon. I've already sent a notice to the students of the academy. You can go there directly when the time comes."
"You don't have to prepare too much in advance. Just briefly talk about your experiences after joining Shenhua and working there."
Zhang Wei smiled at the two men who looked to be in their early thirties.
The two men in their early thirties also nodded. "Teacher Zhang, don't worry. We will definitely tell you everything we know and do a good job in providing career guidance to our juniors!"
Pei Qian immediately understood what the two of them were here for.
This was an outstanding graduate from the previous year. He had returned to give a lecture on career guidance.
From Zhang Wei's words, one could tell that the two of them were outstanding graduates from the academy who had graduated even earlier than Zhang Wei. It seemed like they had already reached the middle ranks of the Shenhua Corporation. This time, they had come back to give a lecture most likely because they had been invited by the academy to share their experiences with their juniors and increase their employment rate.
As a first-tier factory in the country, Shenhua was the goal of many students after they graduated. It was very normal for them to give a lecture and share their experiences.
The two of them looked to be at least four or five years older than Zhang Wei. It was no wonder that Zhang Wei called them senior brothers.
The students of their generation liked to call them senior brothers and senior sisters. The students of Pei Qian's generation liked to call them senior brothers and senior sisters. He did not know the specific pattern.
The moment the three of them walked out, Zhang Wei saw Pei Qian sitting on the sofa.
Zhang Wei's expression changed instantly. "Eh? Why didn't you let the students in to inform me that you were coming? Why are you still waiting outside? "
Pei Qian smiled. "It's fine. I'm not in a hurry."
"That's not right of you. Why are you treating me like an outsider? Senior Brothers, go and take a rest. I won't send you off. "
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he quickly led Pei Qian into the office and closed the door.
The three of them looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.
The two senior brothers asked the student on duty outside softly, "Who is this person?"
The student on duty looked confused. "I don't know. He said he's a fourth-year student."
The two senior brothers obviously did not believe a single word of it.
A fourth-year student could make Zhang Wei invite him in as if he was inviting a god? Something was not right.
The two of them looked at each other and whispered, "I've never heard of a school leader's child studying in our college, right?"
"No matter which leader's child it is, he wouldn't go to the counselor's office personally if something happened."
"What's more, Zhang Wei's attitude seems to be more important than that."
The two of them could not figure it out.
…
In the office, Zhang Wei stood up to pour tea.
Pei Qian quickly waved his hand. "There's no need for that, Teacher Zhang. I just want to say something and will leave soon."
Zhang Wei was very enthusiastic. "It's fine. It's fine to drink some tea."
Pei Qian, "… I'm not used to ordinary tea."
Zhang Wei, "…"
Pei Qian also felt that his words were a little hurtful. He quickly said, "I'll bring some tea from my office for you to try, Teacher Zhang."
Zhang Wei reluctantly gave up on pouring tea. "Alright."
Pei Qian did not think too much about small talk and went straight to the point. "Teacher Zhang, I'm here mainly for my graduation thesis. Can you recommend me a tutor? Also, how should I choose the materials? "
Zhang Wei was also an outstanding graduate of the college. He was also a top student in the past. Otherwise, he would not have been given the opportunity to stay in the college as a counselor.
Asking him about such things was definitely the right thing to do.
Zhang Wei nodded. "Oh, I was just about to tell you about this.
"The college has already contacted Old Kong and asked him to help you write your graduation thesis. You don't have to worry, Professor Kong is very approachable, and he has a good impression of you because of the app. Just write your thesis normally. As long as you pass the review, the professors in the academy won't stop you. "
Pei Qian was stunned. "Professor Kong Zhemin?"
Zhang Wei nodded. "That's right. Is there a second Old Kong in our college?"
Pei Qian was shocked. "Teacher Zhang, there's no need for that!"
Wasn't this a joke?
What kind of person was Old Kong? Why would he be a tutor for an undergraduate student to write his graduation thesis?
Was he worthy?
No, he was not!
Professor Kong Zhemin was a first-class professor of humanities and social sciences at Handong University. He was also a doctoral tutor. He was also the director of Handong University's Chinese Language Education Research Institute, the chief editor of Chinese textbooks for primary and secondary schools, a member of the Basic Education Expert Committee, and the convener of the revision expert group for Chinese Language course standards …
This long list of titles basically represented the highest level of research in Handong University's social sciences.
Old Kong's position was one of the best in the country's universities.
In theory, undergraduate students could choose any professional teacher who had taught them to be their graduation thesis tutor.
Professor Kong Zhemin had once taught Pei Qian and the others.
Although there was only one class, according to the rules, theoretically speaking, Professor Kong could be chosen as the graduation thesis supervisor.
However, most students did not do that. Students were very self-aware.
Old Kong was teaching the best batch of doctoral students. Wasn't it a joke to teach undergraduates to write their thesis?
Wouldn't it be embarrassing to trouble the old man?
Pei Qian had never thought of asking Old Kong to help him write his thesis. On the one hand, he felt embarrassed. On the other hand, he was afraid of embarrassing himself.
What kind of academic standard was Old Kong?
Pei Qian knew where he stood. He was just a pay-to-win warrior who barely passed his exams by transferring money to the college. If he were to hand his graduation thesis to Old Kong, wouldn't he be f * cking embarrassing himself? Wouldn't that be extremely embarrassing?
It was like asking someone who knew nothing to perform a dance in front of the king of dance. Who wouldn't be embarrassed?
If he really wanted to do such a thing, he would have to do it at the seaside. That was because he could awkwardly carve out a seaside villa nearby.
Pei Qian had originally thought of finding a relatively young lecturer. He could write casually and the lecturer could take a look. It would be fine as long as the graduation thesis passed. It would save him and the school a lot of trouble. It would be good for everyone.
However, he did not expect that he would be a step too late. Zhang Wei and the school had already invited Old Kong to help him!
This made everyone feel extremely awkward.
Pei Qian hurriedly said, "Teacher Zhang, it's not like you don't know my standards. It's just a graduation thesis. Is there a need to alarm Professor Kong? The academy isn't doing me a favor, it's putting me on a rack to roast! "
"In my opinion, you should arrange a random young lecturer for me as long as I can graduate successfully."
Zhang Wei was unhappy. "How can we do that?"
"I know you're busy with work and don't have time to study academics. However, your graduation thesis is not just about you now. It concerns the entire school!
"Even undergraduate students' theses have to be uploaded to the internet. Then, all the students in the country — your juniors — would be able to search for your thesis on the internet.
"You're hiding it well now, but it's only a matter of time before people find it after you graduate. Then, they would be able to find your graduation thesis on the internet. Huo, you're the CEO of Tengda Corporation, an outstanding graduate of Handong University, and a famous alumnus. How can your graduation thesis be of this standard?
"When they look at the lecturer, he's just an ordinary lecturer. Wouldn't that show that our school is blind and did not nurture talents well?
"It's not nice to say that!
"It would be fine if you were just an ordinary student. No one would pay attention to you. However, you're not. If that really happened, not only would it affect Tengda's image, but it would also affect the image of the school and the entire school. How can we make do with it?
