Rebirth to 80s: Daughter-in-law is a Bit Spicy

The Cornell campus is of course beautiful!

The total area of ​​3000 acres makes the campus extremely spacious.

The natural scenery of Ithaca is very good. Cornell University has directly encircled 3000 acres in a very good terrain. Can the scenery not be beautiful? In addition to the natural scenery, there are also teaching buildings, libraries and dormitories built over the 120 years since the school was founded, which cleverly blended with the natural scenery and became the unique Cornell University today.

More than just shopping for a day, Xia Xiaolan has come to Cornell for more than two months, except for coming to the college every day on weekends.

She also told the truth:

"Yes, professor, the beauty of the Cornell campus is refreshing."

McCarthy finally turned his chair around, "I heard that the electronic plaza that you designed has already been built in China State Investment Corporation? Before you handed in this work as a homework, I think the data is very detailed, and the difficulty level exceeds one simple one. Homework."

The eyes of the big guys are always vicious.

It is impossible for Xia Xiaolan to pat her **** proudly in front of Professor McCarthy, and lower her eyebrows in pleasing humility: "Professor, you have given me a lot of help. This is also a coincidence."

"No, I'm too late to help you. You did make progress when you arrived at Cornell, but the main thing is that you have a good foundation before you come. Not only you, but also your old classmates, your level actually exceeds that of architecture. What a second-year undergraduate student should master."

Before Ning Xue and Xia Xiaolan came, Jonathan was the most outstanding student in this class.

As soon as Ning Xue and Xia Xiaolan arrived, the time for a semester was not up, and they suppressed Jonathan's light.

In this CW design competition, it is estimated that Jonathan will be hit hard.

Although Ning Xue took the second place, Ning Xue's strength is not weaker than Xia Xiaolan. If architecture has a soul, "Library on the Cliff" is full of spirituality, and Xia Xiaolan's design is more ingenious.

McCarthy is really curious now, curious about the level of architecture education in China.

Did you choose the best of the two peers and send it to Cornell, or did the architectural education in China really have an amazing leap forward?

But this is not the reason why he called Xia Xiaolan over today.

McCarthy opened the drawer and took out a business card from the table. "P&W Holm gave me not only you, but also Ning. Holm hopes to invite you and Ning to complete their undergraduate education at Cornell School of Architecture. P&W office work. If you agree to Holm’s invitation, you can go to P&W internship in your senior year. Career selection should be both sides. You can feel the atmosphere of P&W first."

After graduating from Cornell with a bachelor's degree in architecture, it is not difficult to find a job.

But to enter a world-class large firm, the bachelor degree is still weak. They will accept undergraduate interns, but rarely leave undergraduate graduates.

In any industry, if you want to gain better competitiveness in the workplace, you can only choose to continue your studies.

A master's degree is the starting point. After completing a PhD, you can barely count as a talent.

McCarthy doesn't know what the situation is in China, but that is the case in the United States. Because of the strength of the United States, American standards are naturally common in the world.

In short, it is difficult for undergraduates to enter a world-class large firm. Like P&W firm, there are fewer examples of inviting Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue to work in the future after graduation.

Among other students, the top student who was taken away by Foster & Partners after receiving an A+ from McCarthy was not in his sophomore year.

He was not as lucky as Xia Xiaolan and Ning Xue. He encountered an opportunity like the CW design competition. As early as the second semester of his sophomore year, he showed his talent in front of large firms like Foster and P&W.

McCarthy also thinks this is a good opportunity.

Of course, maybe Xia Xiaolan has other plans, such as continuing her studies.

Xia Xiaolan muttered to herself, "Mr. Holm of P&W didn't say a word to me during the awards. I didn't expect him to send out this kind of invitation..."

Foster's Dick, humorous, is a natural fit to be a judge in front of the camera.

Mr. Holm of P&W is relatively low-key. The comments on the works are quite satisfactory, and the comments are only limited to the work itself, not the designer of the work.

"Home indeed invited you. The business card is really true. After talking with you, I will also find Ning!"

Isn't it just a P&W?

When he is a student, can he be a bit prosperous, with an unbelievable look that he wants to show to someone!

Xia Xiaolan touched the business card and retracted her hand: "Professor, I also want to work in a large firm like P&W, but after my exchange time at Cornell is over, I will go back to China, P&W, I will go No, it’s a shame...Can you convey my gratitude to Mr. Holm for me?"

McCarthy's hooked nose fluttered slightly.

He looks very clever, how come his brain reacts so slowly!

Since he had come forward to hand over the business card for Holm to inform the news, he also asked her whether the Cornell campus was beautiful, did he imply that she could help her stay in Cornell and finish her undergraduate degree?

At the end of the exchange student time, you can also apply directly to study abroad.

It is impossible for Cornell School of Architecture to reject Xia Xiaolan's application. If it is because of tuition fees, it is difficult for undergraduates to apply for scholarships, but if he helps, they can still get some sponsorship.

Professor McCarthy looked at Xia Xiaolan.

Xia Xiaolan also looked directly at the professor.

After a few seconds of confrontation, it was Xia Xiaolan who lost the battle first. How could she not understand Professor McCarthy's subtext?

For Professor McCarthy’s sudden importance, Xia Xiaolan was so happy that she wanted to learn goldfish spit bubbles, but staying at Cornell to finish her undergraduate studies was not in Xia Xiaolan’s plan at all. She could only apologize for McCarthy’s kindness.

Perfunctory?

Xia Xiaolan still chooses to tell the truth:

"Professor, I like Cornell very much. This campus is so beautiful. I also like your lectures and the academic atmosphere of Cornell University. I know how lucky I am to study at the top architectural undergraduate in the United States. It's just me. The reason for this, after the end of the year of exchange student, I will go back to China...Professor, I’m sorry."

Knowing that you are studying at the top architecture school in the United States, but you still want to go back to China?

McCarthy really didn't know what to say.

Many people will encounter such and other opportunities in their lives. Besides talents, opportunities are also very important.

Xia Xiaolan was able to come from an underdeveloped China to the developed United States as an exchange student, her talent was discovered, and then she had the opportunity to pursue further studies and enter a first-class office, but she was unconscious and refused!

Isn't this just giving up the opportunity?

McCarthy had nothing to say, he returned to his coldness:

"I see. Close the door for me when you go out."

"Do you want to call Ning Xue for you?"

Oh, I'm really not afraid of death, can't he find someone to call Ning?

Under Professor McCarthy's eyes, Xia Xiaolan could only leave the office in a desperate manner-the big devil must now think that she is uncarving!
