Chapter 621 Candidates From Each Family (Part 2)
"Have you heard? This Luofu cooperation incident?"
In the Lei family compound, a group of juniors were chattering and discussing.
Most of these juniors are only in middle and high school age, so they obviously don't meet the recruitment standards. Without mutual competitiveness, they can only treat this matter as a gossip for fun.
"Who do you think will go in our family?" A chubby female doll asked.
"Does it need to be said?" The children, a young man with good skin, said with a smile: "Of course it is my brother. He is only 32 years old this year, and he is already a colonel. He has made countless military achievements in commanding sea bandits. External evaluations say that I have the same demeanor as my grandfather back then, how many people of the same age can compare with my brother?"
"Che..." Looking at the boy's proud appearance, a group of dolls curled their lips secretly, and one of them said, "The choice of practitioners is based on aptitude, not military achievements. If you want me to say that the second cousin has a better chance, join the Jiaolong special team." For so many years, he has always been the number one soldier king there, he can fight against thieves, and I heard that many internal boxing masters can't beat him."
"Aptitude is better than who can fight?" A fair-skinned little doll sneered: "It depends on the aptitude of cultivation, right? If you want me to say, my brother is more talented. Many internal boxing masters say he is a genius. The last time there was An elder from Emei passed by and said that as long as my brother is willing to leave our Lei family, he can directly enter Emei. If it wasn’t for grandpa, he would not be willing to hesitate all the time. Now that my brother is already a practitioner, it’s useless to say who has better qualifications?”
"Brother Jiaming? Hehe, he doesn't seem to be from the military, does he?"
"Is it difficult for our family? Just report one?"
While a group of children were talking, they saw a well-mannered boy huddled in a corner. Compared with the surrounding Lei family children, this boy was obviously much weaker, with red lips and white teeth, like a doll. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end Without saying a word, he left the yard silently.
After leaving the yard, he trotted all the way to a remote small room in the Lei family compound. In the room, next to the electric stove, a tall girl with wheat bran-colored skin was sitting there quietly drawing some blueprints. The boy walked over quietly and glanced at the paper on the table.
On the table are some graphic papers that he can't understand, but it can be vaguely seen that they are related to ship design.
The girl was so focused that she didn't seem to notice any outsiders coming.
The boy quietly looked at the other party, the other party was his compatriot sister, named Lei Xue, who was nearly twenty years older than him, and was currently serving on the Black Flood Dragon Aircraft Carrier in the army as a fourth-level engineer on board.
Mainly responsible for directing the maintenance of the cabin, various equipment failures encountered and suggestions for improvement.
The boy sat quietly by the side, looking at his sister who was focused, without moving. He likes to see his sister who is focused. It feels very cool.
I don't know how long it took, but the girl seemed to notice her younger brother coming, and then she smiled and said, "Zhan Hao? Why don't you go play with other brothers?"
"Nothing fun" the boy muttered, head down
"What's the matter?" Facing her younger brother, the girl's obviously capable demeanor eased a little, and a gentle smile appeared on her face.
"Sister, are you sure you don't want to participate in that Luofu election this time?" the younger brother asked expectantly.
Lei Xue looked at her silly younger brother with a smile on hearing the words: "How can I participate? There are only two places in the family, how can I have anything to do with it?"
"Why don't you have a sister? People say that my sister used to have the best academic performance in our circle, and those who are in the lobby are all related to the university."
Hearing this, Lei Xue smiled and squeezed her younger brother's pink face
She actually thought the same way when she was a child. When it comes to learning ability, her grades are among the best in the entire Beijing circle. She is a proper academic master. The kind that can show you a score of 500
Unfortunately, I was born into the wrong family
She remembered that there used to be a girl similar to her in the school, who was sent abroad to study long ago. Relying on her excellent learning ability, she applied for several patents during her school days, and because of the patent she invented, she was awarded an international patent. Physics award, now returned from overseas and hired by Geely Group as technical director, only 28 years old, about the same age as me
And what about myself? Entering the military academy, because of the system, no matter how strong your ability is, you have to suffer slowly
She didn't really want to enter the military school, but the old man Lei of this family was stubborn, and he thought that if he was not a soldier, he was not a child of the Lei family.
So no matter how good her grades are, she was forcibly admitted to the military academy. The funny thing is that the academic performance of several cousins is shit, and they also entered the military academy through their connections. The cousins who skipped classes, fought, and picked up girls stood on the same starting line together, and they seemed to be inferior to them.
The army is a paradise for boys. Even though the federation has been established for hundreds of years, this is still true. In the military academy, her advantages are almost gone. Can only start from the grassroots.
Army engineers are graded, high-level engineers study high-end technologies, and low-level engineers are basically responsible for repairing content. It's no good where to go, with her qualifications, she will have to work for at least three more years as a fourth-level engineer
Because my cousins are in the command department, it is easier to make meritorious service. Now the one who was the least educated and incompetent is now a senior colonel.
Born in this family, who can she turn to for reasoning? But she can't blame her family, can she? After all, if she complained, those children who were born in poor families who couldn't even pay for the tuition, or who were simply disabled, would they be able to ask for reason?
Seeing his sister like this, the little boy finally became sensible and didn't continue to dwell on this topic, but looked at the design drawing on the table and said with a smile: "Sister, why did you choose the major of ship design?"
"When I was young, I always liked to tinker with these mechanical things." When I mentioned this girl, I immediately laughed: "I once dismantled the TV at home, and I was often chased and beaten by my father with a feather duster!"
The boy immediately laughed when he heard the words. He also likes to tinker with these things, but now he only stops at the level of dismantling the remote control board. Seeing that he has this tendency, his family often says that he is as naughty as his sister when she was a child.
"At that time, I could only choose a military school with limited majors. My mother wanted me to study in military medicine or marine surveying and mapping, which was more suitable for girls, but I didn't like it." Lei Xue recalled the past with a smile, when he was forcibly selected She was reluctant in the military school, and if she was not allowed to choose a major, I might really break up, so the family took a step back and let herself choose such a major that deals with logistics craftsmen all day long.
"Then sister, is this major good?" the little boy asked expectantly.
"Well?" The girl smiled wryly, but she still said honestly: "At first, I thought about it very well. In fact, I also yearned for a sailing life. Life seems to be good”
"Then what happened next?" the little boy asked hastily.
"Later." Lei Xue's wry smile became more meaningful. Sure enough, she knew too little at the beginning. This is not the ancient era of great voyages. How could there be the kind of sailing life I imagined? In the army, she spent most of her time on the shore, and she didn’t have many opportunities to go out to sea with her since she started working. She just waited for others to drive the boat back and took people on board for inspection and maintenance. She didn’t feel this at all. what does the ship have to do with me
Now I have to go through it slowly. When I get to the third-level engineer, I seem to be able to participate in the work of design or cutting-edge instrument research. However, if I want to fully participate, it seems that I have to wait another ten years to be a first-level engineer to be eligible to fully participate. And it's just participation, big decisions still have to be made by the senior experts above.
By the time I can make a decision, I should be about 60 or 70 years old like those experts, right?
I don't know if I still have the passion I have now at that time, but she is a little confused. Is it really appropriate for a creative profession like a scientist to be so suppressed by the system?
Sighing, she looked at her younger brother who was staring blankly at her. After thinking about it, she decided not to tell him this, so as not to dampen the child's passion.
Just as he was about to see what topic to use to divert the other party's attention, a familiar female voice suddenly came from outside: "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, why are you still here?"
Lei Xue didn't need to look up to know that it was his mother who came, and immediately put away the blueprints on the table. My mother often complains that I didn't listen to her back then, and went to study some ship design major. To nag for a long time.
I saw a woman who resembled Lei Xue walked in quickly, and when she saw Lei Xue, she hurriedly said: "Your hall brother and the others are back, everyone is here, your grandpa asked you to meet up and ask questions, hurry up Come on, hurry up, don’t pack up, no one wants your things.”
When Lei Xue heard about this, her expression turned bitter.
The program of questioning is one of Mr. Lei’s hobbies. Every time the three generations of children in his old family arrive together, he will call all the children and ask them one by one, from the oldest to the youngest. Like an annual review.
When she was studying in the past, she liked this part the most, because she was full of superiority when facing a group of scumbags around her, but now
hehe
