Chapter 311 Admission Notice
"What's the money for?"
Mr. Liu left, leaving in a hurry!
After eating a lunch, he put down his tachyon and said goodbye. At 3:30 in the afternoon, he got on the flight to Boston and left. Carter wanted to buy a plane ticket for the other party, but the other party smiled and said that all the money was spent.
Yale paid for it in advance, so Carter didn't have to worry...
Until after five o'clock, when Mr. Liu was put on the plane and returned to Douglas again, Carter was in a very low mood. After hearing what the fat boss said at noon, Carter felt a little choked up in his heart.
Overseas Chinese still find it difficult to express their feelings for their motherland, so how can they say that they are white-skinned now?!
"Sam Chen's donation to the Chinese Consulate, I will leave it with you for a moment. Later, I will order a few computers, and then I will take 20,000 US dollars and find a car to take them to the Houston Consulate."
After briefly explaining his intentions, Carter found Jon again:
"Jon, do me a favor. Order five computers from Apple tomorrow, and then help me collect the textbooks you used when learning computer programming, etc., and then pass them on to Goodman!"
"No, wait... Carter, wait a minute!"
As he chased Carter towards the second floor, Goodman's mind was filled with questions:
"Sam Chen donated 1,000 US dollars to China. I understand, after all, it is his motherland. Why did you do this?"
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
"There are so many reasons. If you want to do it, just do it! Aren't we just making money to do whatever we want~"
This feeble wording obviously failed to convince Goodman. Twenty thousand dollars plus five computers, a cash expenditure of about forty thousand dollars, although it is nothing, it is still money!
Seeing Goodman's expression of discomfort but not knowing how to speak, Carter gave a brief explanation:
"Okay, actually I am placing my bet in advance! There is a saying in China that adding icing on the cake is not as good as providing help when it is time. A little help at this time can make them remember us more deeply! Although I don't know how long it will take for us to move towards internationalization, but
That day will come. There is no way I will give up on this huge market in China!"
"On the contrary, I think China will be the largest market no less than the United States in the future. In some industries, the revenue in China may be higher than in the United States!"
"Them? It's unlikely. Their currency is worthless now, their international recognition is very poor, and residents' spending power... I heard that it is a poor and backward place. How much value can they create?"
With the new explanation, even though he still felt a little guilty, Goodman finally understood a lot. After all, there is money in poor places. If you don’t think about India, or even Africa, there are still people who can make a lot of money there.
earn...
If there is a day when we enter the international market, compared with the possible returns, these 40,000 US dollars are indeed nothing...

"Wow! Look at this review: 'If you didn't look at the skin color and the subtle accent, I would have thought I was communicating with a real Chinese!' In terms of language, this is the highest review, right? Can it be used in this review?
He has learned a foreign language to this extent in high school...Ms. Ebsen, will he be assigned to our Davenport during the later sorting?"
The next morning, I received the interview results from MIT. The superintendent, or Provost Dyson, whistled and walked briskly to start the early recruitment activity.
"The residential colleges are randomly assigned, and he doesn't have parents from Davenport who can make an exception..."
"That's for ordinary people, Ebsen! And it's for people who don't have a designated college. By the way, my nephew is also joining Yale this year. Let's assign him to Davenport as well!"
Mrs. Helen pushed up her glasses and added very calmly.
"Yes, they are all in the old campus in the first year anyway. You divide them first. What a big deal!"
"Okay, okay, then I will bind the admission notice now?"
Weighing an unsealed package in his hand, Ebsen finally confirmed.
"Of course, today is the last day. I would say it should have been sent out a long time ago. This is not an early application. If it is robbed by other schools, we will suffer great losses!"

"Carter! Wake up! Hurry up!"
"What's wrong?"
Opening his eyes in confusion, Carter looked at Jenny who suddenly appeared in his room with a vegetable basket hanging on his arm and asked with a strange expression. Not to mention that Jenny, who usually would not enter his room casually, suddenly came in.
Said that the vegetable basket in her hand was...
"What happened?!"
"Big package! Big package! Big package is coming!"
Jenny's tone seemed a little incoherent due to excitement, and Carter was a little unresponsive at first.
What kind of big package? Do you need help if it can’t be moved?
Then, the next moment...
"What the hell?! Which school are you from?"
If you are in the United States, you don’t actually need to open the letter to determine whether your university application has been approved or not. Because if your application is rejected, the reply letter sent to you by the target school will only contain a simple rejection notice. It will not even reject you.
I can’t even write down the reasons!
But if the application is approved, it will be different!
In addition to the admission notice, admission materials, including some new student guides, will be sent to you simultaneously. Therefore, you can directly determine whether your application has been approved by just looking at the size of the package.
"It must be Yale! The one you miss the most, this is great! I didn't even see it when I went out to buy groceries in the morning. When I came back, I saw it next to the mailbox in front of our house."
Seeing the big boy who was so happy that he jumped up from the bed, Jenny's eyes were full of pride.
Passing the Ivy League school application is probably equivalent to being admitted to Qingbei in the United States. If the United States did not set off firecrackers to celebrate this tradition, it would not be an exaggeration to beat gongs and drums at this time...
"Slow down! Be careful of falling!"
He hurried out of the house and took back a slightly heavy package. Carter took a pair of scissors from the coffee table and gently opened the package.
A plain white rectangular box. After opening it, there were many large and small documents, manuals, and some small items neatly placed inside.
At the top is an admission notice with a dark blue cover. When he opened it, he was a little surprised that he didn't see the common "You have been admitted to our school's xxx major" on the admission notice. Carter also noticed that he
It is an unconditional admission notice. Unlike China, where there are only two outcomes: admission and no admission, American universities often have multiple admission outcomes.
Unconditional admission is also called full admission, which is formal admission. When the registration time comes, you can come to class! When he first saw the "tions" at the beginning, Carter thought he had read it wrong.
After all, I only have one SAT test score at the moment, and there are no activity records, competition award records, etc. Strictly speaking, this application material is not good at all. A single score certificate is not necessarily completely reliable.
Carter originally thought that even if he was admitted, he should be admitted conditionally. That is, within the specified time, what materials should be supplemented, such as more standardized test scores, and if they meet the requirements, then he can be officially admitted.
