Chapter 53

Zhai Da hadn't been here for a while; Brother Hai wondered if he had taken the money for surfing to date, and said with a smile: "If you have no money, tell Brother, Brother will open a machine for you."

In this day and age, the internet cafe management system is not so professional, and the manager's authority is very large, and there are many loopholes to drill.

Zhai Da even remembered that there were spiritual little sisters who "dated" Brother Hai for a month in order to surf for free.

Zhai Da smiled: "Isn't the college entrance exam coming up? No time to come."

Brother Hai was quite surprised: "You kid really study? Can you get into junior college?"

"Try it, by the way, Brother Hai, we have some school registration things to do; which computer is the safest here? I need to log in to the 'Provincial Examination Authority'."

Brother Hai thought for a while and said: "Then use mine; I can't guarantee that other computers are clean."

Brother Hai trusted Zhai Da very much; he had been an internet cafe manager for almost ten years, and it was not much different from watching Zhai Da grow up; basically no customers would come to open a machine at this time, so he simply gave the position to Zhai Da and went out to buy breakfast directly.

Zhai Da moved another chair, and the two of them sat behind the bar.

Opened the browser, searched for the website, and then logged in to the "Provincial Education Examination Authority."

This is the official website, but it is quite crude, the kind that didn't even set the template, but it is the lifeblood of countless students in the province.

For students in the current era, they basically don't need to log in to this website personally; these things haven't been on the internet for many years; in most cases, they are handled in batches by schools and units at all levels.

But just like what he said to Lu Wei last night, everyone has the right to take the college entrance exam.

Every year, news about "going to college with son," "20th college entrance exam," "a grandmother moving into the dormitory" all come from this.

As long as you have proof of high school or equivalent academic ability, you can register to participate; it used to be in relevant departments in various places, but now you can do it on the internet.

(Even if you haven't finished nine-year compulsory education, you can take a test in the education department to prove equivalent academic ability.)

Although Lu Wei didn't take the college entrance exam, she had a "High School Graduation Certificate."

It's called graduation, but the corresponding exam is actually taken in the second semester of the second year of high school to avoid affecting the college entrance exam sprint, called "General High School Academic Level Qualification Exam."

The difficulty is extremely low, with a national pass rate of 95%, basically just going through the motions.

Lu Wei's graduation certificate is usually kept in a bag with other documents; it was taken out that day when she was kicked out.

Zhai Da found the registration link; first, he had to register Lu Wei for the "Subject Level Test," and then register for the college entrance exam.

In the past, these "checkpoints" closed application/modification permissions very early, but this year, due to the arrival of the 08 new regulations, they were significantly postponed (each province is different, formulated by itself).

According to Lu Wei's graduation certificate, Zhai Da entered the corresponding student ID, a sixteen-digit content containing uppercase letters.

Then entered the ID number.

Filled in basic information... the path was correct, generated the initial account and initial password, and then logged in again...

After a series of operations, Lu Wei officially registered for the "Subject Level Test," including physics on the same day as the college entrance exam, and "chemistry and biology" next month.

Because it is a social registration, the admission ticket will be sent by postal express; Zhai Da filled in the address directly at Sanmao Community.

He suddenly remembered a meme about the 08 new regulations in his previous life; after that messy summer ended, someone complained online that all adults should be mobilized to register for the subject level test.

Because the top 20% of the scores in elective subjects (physics/history) in the province are A, as long as all fathers, mothers, grandfathers, and grandmothers in the province register and hand in blank papers, it can ensure that every child in the province gets an A.

Of course, this is just a joke; no one can really mobilize so many people, and the authorities won't really allow such blind messing around; it's not too easy for those who formulate the rules to patch it.

Currently, what he and Lu Wei need to face is the compulsory subject level in a month; in terms of absolute scores, they need to score over 90 to get an A; Lu Wei should be steady, as for himself... need to work hard.

And then, it is the college entrance exam registration, also operated on the examination authority's official website, but more rigorous; Lu Wei needs to go to the local education department offline to perform offline real-name authentication and listen to relevant briefings, and the admission ticket must also be collected offline by the person themselves.

Before logging out, Zhai Da also changed the initial password.

After doing all this, Zhai Da let out a long breath, and Lu Wei also felt that she had completed a major event, and her mind was a bit more relaxed.

Brother Hai didn't know when he came back after breakfast, observing Zhai Da and his "girlfriend" secretly; seeing that Zhai Da was busy, he said: "Finished?"

Zhai Da nodded: "Thank you, Brother Hai, confirm the computer is safe, right?"

Brother Hai smiled: "Thinking quite a lot, I've been tinkering with this computer for several years, cleaner than most computers on the market, and I clean it deeply every week."

Brother Hai handed over two starch sausages; Zhai Da didn't be polite and shared one with Lu Wei.

"You kid, is it a bit late to start studying at this point? I see that Wu Yue kid has already given up, watching cartoons here every day."

Zhai Da said: "The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, the second best time is now."

Originally wanted to use this street-popular quote to shake a package, but didn't expect Brother Hai to nod seriously.

"Indeed, this makes sense... Little Da, if there is a chance, you still have to fight for it, even if you get into a junior college?"

"Don't be like me, I thought studying was useless when I was studying, and only knew it was useless when I didn't study."

Zhai Da could only comfort him formally about Brother Hai's story, which he only knew roughly: "Don't say that, all roads lead to Rome."

Brother Hai mocked himself: "Do you know what kind of people I envy the most?"

"Uh... college students?"

"That's not it, college students are also quite stupid."

"Then what?"

"I envy those who are knowledgeable and have a broad vision, unlike me, who has been in the internet cafe for ten years, dark and dim, day and night reversed... and hasn't even been out of Dongyang."

"Actually, you can also travel more." Zhai Da suggested.

"But being knowledgeable and improving vision costs money; if you have no money, you can only be tied to work like a dog; how can we ordinary people have a chance? The best and fairest opportunity in this life is actually studying."

Brother Hai lit a Red Su and took a breath:

"The tuition for Qingbei University is only 5000 yuan a year; think about it, what a cheap opportunity to change your life?"

Zhai Da shook his head: "But not everyone has this talent."

"How many people really have no talent? Just lazy and greedy; I'm an internet cafe manager, I've seen too much."

Brother Hai subconsciously handed Zhai Da a Red Su; Zhai Da also subconsciously took it, but Brother Hai reacted and snatched it back.

"Don't smoke if you haven't learned; in the future, when you work, you'll have one after another."

Zhai Da didn't leave immediately, but took a bottle of iced black tea from behind the bar, a 1-liter medium bottle.

"Brother Hai, used your computer, I'll treat you to a drink."

Brother Hai smiled: "You just took it from the cabinet to treat me?"

"Isn't the cabinet also the boss's? I'll pay."

Although the serious business was over, he intended to chat with Brother Hai a few more times.

Because just now when Brother Hai touched the cigarette, he saw a fold line extending from the other party's pocket.
