Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 714 I challenge Tang Ye with my real name. Can a mere clumsy pen become the world's number one?

June is final exam month, and today the roads around Peking University are particularly lively, filled with students riding electric bikes and bicycles to the exam venues.

"On the left is Peking University's second teaching building, which was completed and put into use in 2007."

Qian Junwei, director of the Department of Physical Education, led the way, while Tang Ye looked left and right, visiting the university where he had already "studied for 2 years".

"The south side of the second teaching building is our May Fourth Playground, which is also a venue for some outdoor activities."

"Oh, um, I remember."

Tang Ye pointed to the May Fourth Square in the distance: "Wasn't that where I took my entrance exam? I remember this place."

"Yes, that's right. However, after the pandemic, the exam venue is no longer arranged at the May Fourth Playground. So, Tang Ye, you are the last batch of students in the Department of Physical Education to take the entrance exam at the May Fourth Playground."

"Haha, then I'm pretty lucky."

Tang Ye said, "By the way, do you have a square pen for filling in answer sheets?"

"That's no problem! Haha, I'll inform your proctor, and he'll give you all the necessary exam supplies. You won't need to prepare them yourself."

Tang Ye nodded slightly.

A good school is a good school; the teachers and administrators are really very considerate!
"Tang Ye!"

"Wow!! It really is Teacher Er, I guessed right!"

"King of Football, wow!"

"Eh!!"

There are only a few exam venues for the sports department, so the students in the school can easily figure out where Tang Ye will probably take the exam.

If everyone guesses a location, someone will eventually guess correctly.

"Tang Ye!"

Wow, haha!

More than 20 students rushed over quickly, and the noise they made soon attracted more people, and the area near the second floor of the teaching building quickly descended into chaos.

"That's why we didn't reveal your exam location."

Qian Junwei sighed: "They'll go crazy if they see you."

The students rushed over, and the two bodyguards were about to reach out to stop them, but Tang Ye pressed their hands down as soon as they were outstretched: "It's okay, it's okay."

This is China, after all, and it's a school, so Tang Ye doesn't need to worry about anyone suddenly stabbing him in the back.

"Tang Ye!!!"

"Holy crap, Tang, I'm a real fan of yours. I've been watching you play since I was two years old."

There was a guy who'd been watching Tang Ye's matches since he was two years old, but his roommate quickly pushed him away: "Brother Ye, I'm better than him! I've been watching you play since I was one year old. Back then, I was still a sperm, and I made my dad watch your matches on TV every day! Can we take a picture together? Taking a picture with you has been my childhood dream!"

"Okay, okay, cough cough, everyone calm down, everyone calm down. You don't need to tell me when I started watching me play football, and you don't need to talk about sperm, okay? This is a university campus, let's be serious."

Tang Ye signaled for everyone to calm down.

Students with poor grades often have a sense of awe towards good schools.

The same applies to people like Tang Ye who didn't get into university based on academic performance.

This is Peking University, so we must remain respectful!

"King Tang, I really fucking like you, damn it."

"Tang Ye, I often feel like a deer while watching your matches!"

"Which exam room are you from, Tang Qiuwang? I'm also from Teaching Department 2, I'm 504!"

"..."

"Okay, okay, everyone calm down!"

Tang Ye suddenly realized that the top students at Peking University were somewhat different from what he had imagined, which was a departure from his stereotypes.

One of the students, wearing a white T-shirt, came up and pointed to his roommate next to him, who was wearing a Liverpool Salah jersey: "Tang Qiuwang, Liu Wentao from Class 18, 03, Atmospheric Physics and Meteorology, said he wants to challenge you to a one-on-one match. He said he can kick you to pieces with one foot."

Tang Ye raised an eyebrow, and the classmate named Liu Wentao quickly defended himself: "No, Tang Ye, listen to me. Although I am a Liverpool fan, I am also your fan, a very loyal fan."

"I know I know."

Led by Qian Junwei and other leaders from the Department of Physical Education, Tang Ye slowly arrived at the entrance of the second teaching building.

Only three or four minutes had passed since the students discovered Tang Ye, but there were already hundreds of people near the second floor of the teaching building.

At this time, the second teaching building was as bustling as a cafeteria at dinner time, and electric vehicles and bicycles could hardly pass through.

"I know you all want autographs and photos, but I'm here to take an exam today, so we'll have to wait until after I finish, okay?"

At the entrance of the teaching building, Tang Ye calmed the students' excited emotions.

But his words had no effect.

Since he spends most of his time in Europe, Chinese fans rarely have the opportunity to meet Tang Ye in real life.

Not to mention a face-to-face opportunity like today.

"King Tang, remember not to cheat!"

"Tang Ye, I'll help you with the exam. In return, can you play a match for our college? I also play midfield, and I'll give you my position!"

"Wow!!! Tang Ye, help us play a match for the college team!"

"Brother Ye, who's your proctor? I'll take care of him for you. I'm Shao Chen from the History Department, Class of 20!"

If someone gives their name, it's definitely the name of one of their roommates.

However, Tang Ye, who hadn't spent much time in university, couldn't quite grasp the situation.

He felt that the students at Peking University were very brave; they dared to state their class and even their name before making a mistake.

"Ok, Ok."

Tang Ye shook hands with "Shao Chen": "I'm Tang Ye from the 2019 class of the Sports Department. It's nice to meet you, but I have an exam right now, so..."

"Wow!!!!"

"Tang, you're still from the School of Economics! Don't forget about our School of Economics!"

"Tang Ye, and our School of Economics too!"

When Tang Ye introduced himself as a student from the Department of Physical Education, it made the students from the School of Economics very nervous.

You promised to double major in sports and economics, how could you forget about our School of Economics?

"Tang Ye, it's the School of Economics! You're also in the School of Economics, we're in the same class. Did you know that the professor called your name last month for our Marxist Theory class? You're going to fail the course if you don't come!"

"..."

"Okay, okay, I know I'm from the School of Economics. I misspoke earlier, sorry."

"But! I really have to take the exam now, and it starts at 3:00."

The area around the second teaching building was too chaotic, so in order to avoid affecting the students who also needed to take the exam, Tang Ye could only hurry into the teaching building.

"Tang Ye, don't leave after school! See you at the May Fourth Playground!"

"I am Chen Xuanwei, a student from the Class of 20 in Biological Sciences! Tang Ye, I challenge you by name. The loser must give up Shiyi Middle School!"

Don't call my name!

"Tang Ye, I am Mao Weijie, a 17 Master of Business Administration. To be honest, Tang Ye, you're just a noob. Do you dare to accept my challenge?"

"I know, I know!"

Tang Ye turned around and raised his hand to indicate, "I'll remember you, Mao Weijie!"

Wow!!!

"Ha ha!"

"Tang the King of Balls, he's not Mao Weijie, I'm Mao Weijie! Holy crap, I didn't challenge you, hey!"

"Tang Ye, I am Mao Weijie, Tang Ye the Paintbrush!"

Wow!! Hahaha!

In just a few minutes, Tang Ye received at least 40 challenges.

It has to be said that young people are really bold; most of these 40-plus challenge letters included their names and majors.

Moreover, their bets were extremely extravagant.

If you lose, you either have to retire on the spot or give up the title of world's number one!

With so many opponents and such a terrifying challenge, Tang Ye must carefully consider whether to accept the declaration of war.

Of course, what he needs to do now is finish today's exam!

【507】

At the front door of the examination hall, Qian Junwei, the director of the Department of Physical Education, and Zheng Zhi, a lecturer in the Department of Physical Education, stood together, carefully examining Tang Ye, who was sitting in his seat scratching his head.

The final exam for macroeconomics is, to be honest, quite brain-teasing. As expected, Tang Ye is currently engaged in some incredibly complex calculations!

"Such a big star, and he still has to take exams."

Zheng Zhi had a smile on his face. If players from other national teams knew what Tang Ye was doing during the off-season, they would definitely smile too.

"This is economics. All top athletes have to take this course. We're doing this for his own good."

"Wouldn't this be too difficult for him? To be honest, we football players haven't had much formal education."

"Hey, don't worry about that."

Qian Junwei placed his hand on the political shoulder: "These questions are specially designed, and we usually give him 99 points, so out of 100 he only needs 25 to pass." Yes, it's clear the Physical Education Department is very concerned about Tang Ye's education.

Top-tier athletes with pockets full of cash must learn how to manage their assets.

Peking University, as Tang Ye's school, has an unshirkable responsibility!

……

3. In an open economy, if a country's currency appreciates, what is the impact on international trade?

A. Domestic exports increase while imports decrease.

B. Domestic exports decrease while imports increase.

C. Both domestic exports and imports increased.

D、……

"..."

Biting his pen, Tang Ye recalled the knowledge points he had memorized.

If the domestic currency appreciates...

Exports decreased, imports increased!
Haha!

With a smile, Tang Ye wrote a B in the parentheses.

Macroeconomics sounds very complex, and it's even more of a mystery to athletes.

But Tang Ye is no ordinary athlete; he's the kind of person who excels at learning.

Tang Ye memorized a lot of key points, and these key points helped him complete at least one-third of the multiple-choice questions. He was incredibly strong.

[Easy Question]

[1. Suppose you are a wealthy businessman with net assets between 100 billion and 10 billion RMB. Currently, we are in a downturn phase of the economic cycle. How should you manage your wealth to maximize asset growth while ensuring the safety of your principal?]

"..."

Bite the pen tip.

Indeed, multiple-choice questions are ultimately just a game for the weak.

To determine who the true champion is, you'll need to solve some questions.

The teacher only provided a question bank for multiple-choice questions; as for the open-ended questions...

There are key points, but of course, it's impossible to memorize all the key points in such a thick book, so in the end, Tang Ye will have to rely on his own abilities to answer the questions!
Gritting his teeth, Tang Ye began the operation.

【…】

【3,……】

Swish!

Swish swish!

Tang Ye was the only person in the entire examination room.

Two proctors walked back and forth, looking at Tang Ye, who was writing furiously in the middle of the classroom, with some surprise on their faces.

The female teacher behind glanced at the male teacher in front, then quietly walked up.

Tang Ye noticed the commotion coming from his right rear almost instantly and turned his head sharply: "Teacher, what... are you going to do?"

"Oh, it's okay, just keep writing."

The female teacher was startled and took a step back. She came back after Tang Ye resumed writing the test paper.

In just over 50 minutes, Tang Ye had already written the last question on the answer sheet, which was covered with dense black writing.

Although he is left-handed, I must say, Tang Ye's handwriting is quite good.

Let's see what it says.

[A: The country's inflation rate in 2010 was approximately 2720%, and it is projected that the country's per capita GDP will reach US$85.5 in 20 years.]

"..."

The female teacher touched her nose and coughed twice.

Although it's a very simple question, it still involves calculations, and even the simplest calculations can cause problems for anyone.

Therefore, some simple mistakes are perfectly acceptable.

Let's take a look at the second-to-last question Tang Ye is working on.
A: Economic growth trend: I can't predict it, but it should rise.

A: The country's mortality rate this year is approximately -2.5%.

"hiss……"

The female teacher's pupils dilated suddenly.

That's incredibly powerful!

Tang Ye completed all the questions in 70 minutes out of the 120-minute exam time.

The multiple-choice questions go without saying; Tang Ye could easily score at least 30 points on those alone.

The other section consisted of problem-solving questions, which were indeed very difficult. However, because the provided materials were quite extensive, Tang Ye was essentially learning while taking the exam. He also learned quite a few economic formulas during the exam process.

Tang Ye handed the exam paper to the teacher and got up to leave.

"Um, Tang... classmate."

The teacher pulled Tang Ye aside, pointed to Tang Ye's answer sheet, and said, "Student, you didn't write your name here?"

"Oh my god, it's mine!"

Tang Ye rewrote his name on the answer sheet.

……

The front page headline of Sports Weekly: Tang Ye completes his final exam in macroeconomics at Peking University; fans warmly welcome him near the exam venue.

"Tang Ye!"

"Did you hand in your paper early? Let's have a one-on-one fight! I'm from the Law School, Class of 2020..."

Tang Ye came down the stairs with a black pen in his hand.

"Wow!!!!"

The teaching building was quickly blocked again.

Unlike when I was preparing for the exam, there were actually more people outside after the exam.

There were people everywhere, so it was impossible to estimate their numbers, even if Tang Ye was an economics master.

"Mao Weijie, you haven't left yet? If I had known you would wait for me for this long, I would have handed in my paper earlier."

"What did Tang Qiuwang say? Will I pass? Will I fail the exam?"

"Don't panic, Tang Qiuwang. If you're going to fail your course, give me your teacher's name, and I'll help you block him!"

"Ha ha!"

"No, he's not Mao Weijie, Tang Ye, don't be fooled."

"I am Mao Weijie!"

"Mao Weijie!" Tang Ye shouted loudly and walked straight over: "I still remember you, you're the one who told me you wanted to fight one-on-one."

"Yes, yes, that's me. My name is Mao Weijie. I'm a 17 Master of Business Administration!"

Mao Weijie kept emphasizing his name.

"You said you wanted to fight me one-on-one, is that true?"

"Of course it's true! My name is Mao Weijie!"

"Let's go to the playground."

"what?"

"Wow!!!!"

The crowd erupted in screams, and the student named Mao Weijie involuntarily took a step back.

Although the name was an imposter, Tang Ye had memorized his face, so he would have to fight him one-on-one.

"Ha ha!"

Beside him, the real Mao Weijie looked at the fake Mao Weijie.

"No, Brother Ye, are you really going to fight me one-on-one? Could you let me win a round?"

"sure!"

Tang Ye readily agreed.

"Then how do we do it?"

When asked about Mao Weijie, Tang Ye pointed to his bandaged right hand and said, "I'll give you a handicap."

"..."
