Mixed in 1980

Chapter 99 School is finally starting
"Okay, tell me. I won't refuse any help I can give."

Gu Haibin agreed readily. Chen Fan really helped him a lot.

If it weren't for Chen Fan, the house would not be sold and the family would not get the money. If they went to Guangzhou, they might have to squeeze into the factory dormitory.

"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you."

Chen Fan found a step and motioned for Lao Gu to sit down and chat for a while: "Yangcheng is the frontier of reform and opening up. When you go there, can you write to me about your experiences and experiences with reform and opening up?"

Gu Haibin scratched his head, confused.

"Brother Gu, to be honest, I plan to start a business in the future. I am curious about the progress of reforms in various cities. If I learn more information, it may be useful in the future."

Chen Fan was not lying when he said this.

At this time in his previous life, he was just an ordinary college student and didn't know much about the specific progress of reform and opening up.

Although we have read a lot of information in later generations, it is only limited to information. The real sense of in-depth participation in the reform and opening up was only after we went into business.

Of course, this was not Chen Fan’s purpose.

If you really want to understand more, you might as well fly to Guangzhou and stay there for ten days or half a month. Then, combined with the information you have read in your previous life, you can have a more comprehensive understanding.

Chen Fan wanted to establish a communication channel with Lao Gu in this way. Only through correspondence could the two sides truly establish a friendship.

Another thing is to let Mr. Gu experience the reform and opening up.

Lao Gu is an ambitious and proactive person. He has a lot of experience with the reform and opening up. Maybe he will go into business if he gets the chance one day.

"You are a college student, from Beijing University at that, and you want to go into the industry?" Gu Haibin was surprised.

Nowadays, all college students are chosen by the heavens, and students of Peking University are the most chosen among the chosen ones. Some of them are highly sought after by good employers.

You have to be stupid to go into the sea.

Being a self-employed person is not decent. Even if you make a lot of money, your social status is not high. Only those who are not wanted by formal units will set up stalls on the street.

"Can't college students go into the business world? I went to Hong Kong last month, and there were a lot of college students doing business there. The really rich ones were all businessmen. Maybe you will also join them and go into business one day." Chen Fan joked.

"I don't have such plans." Gu Haibin hurriedly shook his head. As a senior engineer in the factory, his income was still considerable.

As for Chen Fan's request, Gu Haibin also agreed to it. It was not a big deal.

Just a little effort.

The two chatted for a while before going into the housing management office.

Finding a corner, Chen Fan took out the cash from his bag and asked Gu Haibin to count it. After confirming that the amount was correct, he quickly completed the procedures.

"Brother Chen, we will take the train to Yangcheng the day after tomorrow, and we will be able to vacate the house the day after tomorrow morning. Come over then, and I will give you the key."

"Just put the key on the table in the living room. Find another lock and hang it outside. I'll break it down and get in later. I'm going to the Magic City tomorrow."

"That's fine."

"You are busy, I will go back first, don't forget to write to me."

Wave goodbye!

Chen Fan had another property deed in his hand.

It makes me happy just thinking about it. Nowadays, if you don’t go into business, the most cost-effective thing to do is to buy a house or antiques. If you don’t know much about antiques, it’s also good to stock up on houses.

As for going into the sea...

Chen Fan now prioritizes Lao Gu, a capable, trustworthy, and righteous man, almost the template of a "best partner".

It's the same investment. If you invest in others and they buy houses or cars, you may lose everything. But if you invest in Lao Gu, he makes money and you will never lose a penny.

"We need to think about it and prepare some start-up capital for Lao Gu."

Chen Fan secretly thought, don't wait for the opportunity to come. There is not enough money and you can only do small things. That would be meaningless. You might as well continue writing novels.

Fortunately, there is no need to rush into this matter. Lao Gu is now a senior engineer and will not easily go into business before encountering the right opportunity.

The most urgent task is to keep in touch more!

However, the most important thing for Chen Fan at the moment is to send Guan Xiaoyu back.

With the certificate issued by Wang Jingyi, it doesn’t take much time to fly to Shanghai.

Chen Fan stayed there for two nights, enjoying the treatment of a "grandson and nephew", and then hurried back to the capital because the graduation banquet was about to begin.

The graduation banquet was not complicated. The Chen family did not have many relatives, so the guests were basically from the courtyard, as well as Li Qiang and the four editors-in-chief.

"Jianjun, come to this table."

Seeing Zhang Jianjun coming, Chen Fan hurriedly went to greet him: "You are the only one with a high level of education in our courtyard. Please help me entertain a few friends. Qiangzi is here too."

Without giving Zhang Jianjun a chance to refuse, Chen Fan put his arm around his shoulders and walked away.

"My dear brothers and Sister Jingyi, please forgive me for the poor hospitality. This is my childhood friend, Zhang Jianjun, and he will entertain you on my behalf."

"We are all family, no need to be so polite. Comrade Xiao Zhang, please take a seat." Wang Wei pulled out a chair and asked Zhang Jianjun to sit next to him.

He remembers this name.

The culprit who wrote the letter to complain about Chen Fan was later framed by Chen Fan: "Xiao Fan, go and do your work. We can take care of ourselves here." "I'll come over later to toast you all."

Chen Fan smiled and nodded, then said, "Qiangzi, Jianjun, thank you for your help in entertaining these brothers and sisters."

"Don't worry, just go ahead and do your work." Li Qiang responded with a smile.

Chen Fan has explained it.

As a good brother, I must do this well today.

When he was in Saihanba, he looked down on Zhang Jianjun, thinking that this man was not honest, always liked to do small things behind the scenes, and was very annoying.

Even though they lived in the same alley and worked in the same production team, the relationship between Li Qiang and Zhang Jianjun was only superficial.

"Brothers and sisters, I offer a toast to you all."

Li Qiang raised his glass, toasted everyone, and deliberately asked about the work of several editors-in-chief.

After understanding, he was surprised and raised his glass again: "You are all great intellectuals. I will toast you again. I'll drink it. Please do as you please."

"We just do some manuscript review work, we can't be considered as cultural people."

Wang Wei understood, raised his glass and drank it, then said unobtrusively: "If we talk about cultured people, it has to be someone like Xiaofan. We old guys all admire his articles very much."

"Fanzi is really amazing. He is a writer and is preparing for college entrance exams. When we went to Saihanba together, he was the smartest one. Jianjun, don't you agree?"

"Oh, yes, yes!"

Zhang Jianjun picked up the wine glass, forced a smile, and toasted everyone.

Damn it, Chen Fan.

My buddy just wanted to find a place to sit and have a good meal with you, but you insisted on arranging a seat like this for me and even asking me to blow it for you?

And that bastard Li Qiang, why is he so stubborn?
Praise Chen Fan from time to time. You can praise him if you want. After that, you have to ask yourself: "Jianjun, am I right?"

To you uncle!

The guy called Wang Wei is not a serious person either. Li Qiang is the funny guy and he is the supporting actor. From time to time, he has to ask himself a question.

I really want to pick up the wine glass and throw it in their faces!
"Just go ahead and do it!"

Xu Jinqiu observed for a while and found that Zhang Jianjun was very uncomfortable, but he kept smiling: "Aren't you afraid that he will make a scene?"

"Zhang Jianjun would never do such a thing. His life motto is to smile on the surface but be cautious behind the scenes. He will never openly clash with others."

Chen Fan had calculated this clearly, so he dared to arrange people to this table. If possible, he even hoped that this graduation banquet could continue forever.

Unfortunately, it all has to end.

Xu Jinqiu was also going to hold a graduation banquet the next day, so after finishing that, the two of them began to tidy up the small courtyard outside Xinjiekou. By the time it was ready, it was time for school to start.

The two of them packed up, changed their clothes, took their admission letters and other documents, and went out on their bicycles. Xu Jinqiu went to Beijing Normal University and Chen Fan went to Peking University.

The bicycle was also newly bought.

Whether it is Peking University or Beijing Normal University, the campuses are not small. Having a bicycle will make life and classes much more convenient.

Chen Fan was not in a hurry and rode there slowly. He first parked his bicycle at the parking lot marked at the school entrance, and then followed the sign to find the office of the Department of Political Science and Economics.

A lot of time was wasted on the road and we arrived late. There were already quite a few people queuing in front of us. Chen Fan took a special look and saw that they were all quite young, except for one older man.

There are still many young people in their class.

Unlike the three older classes (Class of 77/78/79), where the youngest were in their teens and the oldest were in their thirties, it was hard to tell whether they were teachers or students.

However, among these older candidates, those who were able to pass the exam had basically passed it in the past three years, and many of those who failed gave up, so naturally there were fewer people in this session.

Chen Fan poked his head into the office and saw several people busy at work, but the procedures were complicated and the efficiency was not very high, so he probably would have to wait.

Nearly an hour later, it was finally Chen Fan's turn.

Looking at the empty registration spot, Chen Fan walked over. In front of him was a young teacher in his twenties. He looked haggard, and even his glasses couldn't hide the dark circles under his eyes.

Well, still a little weak!

"Hello, teacher. I'm Chen Fan, from the Department of Political Economy!"

Chen Fan handed over his materials and said his name. Suddenly, he felt something strange. The office became eerily quiet.

Several teachers who were processing formalities looked at him.

"Are you Chen Fan?"

Pan Ronglin looked at the slightly immature face in front of him and found it hard to believe that this young man was the gangster intellectual?

Ever since the admission list was finalized, Chen Fan's name has been marked.

It’s not because Chen Fan is so famous, nor because the articles he writes are so good, but because this person represents: making trouble!
The department head even thought about transferring Chen Fan to another major, such as archaeology. They couldn't recruit many people anyway, and many students were transferred there.

Having another Chen Fan isn’t bad either!
When the head of the History Department found out, he came over directly and scolded the head of the Political Science and Economics Department. His language was so rich that one could only sigh: He is worthy of being a historian!
