Chapter 403 (5k2 Super Large Chapter) A Simple Hungry Wolf
"You have to read it even if you don't understand it!!!" Cui Shaojie raised his voice.

"I don't understand it either! But I'll just read it anyway!"

"Let's copy it down first!"

"Let me tell you, you'll never understand if you don't watch it. You have to watch it to understand."

"It's okay if we don't understand it today; we'll be victorious if we understand it tomorrow!"

"We have to watch it!!!"

……

Meanwhile, Cui Shaojie was making a series of beeping noises in room 421, as if trying to kill someone.

On the other side,
Chen Luyang stared blankly at Li Zhengfan.

"Teacher Li, do you mean you want me to be an intern translator?"

Li Zhengfan nodded: "Yes, he is an intern translator."

Chen Luyang asked, "Are there any subsidies or rewards for intern translators?"

Li Zhengfan shook his head and said, "No."

"Although it's an internship translation, it's a rare opportunity. Only three senior students in the school can participate."

“You are a student from another department and a freshman, so this is a rare learning opportunity for you.”

"Oh." Chen Luyang listened quietly to Li Zhengfan finish speaking and nodded gently.

"Thank you for your kindness, teacher, but I won't join."

what?
Li Zhengfan was taken aback, thinking he had misheard.

This is a rare opportunity to work with the teacher to compile original works and write teaching materials!
To put it bluntly,

In this era, those who have the experience of participating in the compilation of original philosophical works at Peking University are considered potential candidates who can directly enter the "national core knowledge circle" and the "backbone of the intellectual world".

Not to mention that top universities will give priority to those with "experience in translating original works,"
Research institutes and research centers at all national levels, research units directly under the Ministry of Education, policy research institutions within the China National Research Council, and even various foreign affairs and cultural institutions will proactively open their doors to you.

This is an absolutely rare and highly valuable resume!

With this learning and work experience,
With Chen Luyang's background, she can get into almost any place she wants in the future, as long as she wants!

This is something that other students would beg for but could never achieve.

Li Zhengfan thought Chen Luyang didn't understand the value of translation work, so he patiently explained the ins and outs to Chen Luyang.

Chen Luyang listened attentively, nodding as she listened.

"Teacher, I know all of that..."

Chen Luyang spoke sincerely: "Internship translation... is a rare opportunity, but I am from another department after all. I should give it to a philosophy student who is more suitable."

joke!

His skill level, his ability!!

Intern translator?

Even insults aren't this vulgar!

If Li Zhengfan and his colleagues hadn't seen the quality of their own philosophical translations, then so be it.

The Hegel passage he translated last night was a perfect translation that faithfully adhered to Hegel's original text, both in terms of semantic expression and ideological content.

They've already seen their own skill level, and they still want to make them intern translators?!
What were you thinking?!

If Chen Luyang hadn't been bound by basic principles of social interaction, she would have already started cursing.

Zhang Guozhen, from the Department of Economics, was also eyeing his translation skills and wanted him to translate the original works for them.

But at least he added a public course for himself and even printed his name on the cover of the internal materials.

They give both royalties and rewards.

It's one thing for someone to work so hard, burning the midnight oil to translate the original text, and then explain it to students line by line.

The key point is that you, a philosophy major, aren't given housing or land, and you're expected to dedicate yourself to this cause?
What are you thinking about?!

Nobody's time and energy come from thin air!

However, Li Zhengfan didn't interpret Chen Luyang's polite refusal as meaning that.

"I understand your concerns. The purpose of making you an intern translator is to protect your status as an outsider."

"That way, if anything happens, our philosophy department can step in and help you solve it."

wipe……

Chen Luyang had a headache.

This teacher is actually quite nice.

But it seems like we can't hear the implied meaning in their words!

Seeing that Li Zhengfan was about to persuade her again, Chen Luyang simply got straight to the point and stopped beating around the bush.

"Teacher, my situation is a little special..."

"Not only do I have to attend school, but I also have to be in charge of the car maintenance and repair center of our factory in Pian'er City."

"Once things at school stabilize, I'll have to shuttle between the two places to keep an eye on the repair center."

Wow...!
Li Zhengfan and the other teachers in the office couldn't help but look up at him.

Xiao Hui couldn't help but push up his glasses and look the young man, who was not yet 20 years old, up and down again.

"You still have work outside?" Li Zhengfan asked in surprise.

“I am a trainee at our factory, so I have to attend school and also take care of my work at the factory. I also have a car maintenance and repair center near the West Railway Station and about 10 workers to manage. I am now responsible for the repair and use of hundreds of cars in the whole area.”

Chen Luyang said sincerely, "I really have a lot of time..."

Li Zhengfan began to sense that something was amiss.

He told Chen Luyang that he was an "intern translator," and Chen Luyang told him that "time is tight."
what does this mean?
Chen Luyang continued, "Moreover, the department recently added a public course for me on reading original works of economics."

"Not only do I organize students to conduct an academic research group activity every week and give a large lecture in the department every Wednesday, but I also have to translate the original economics texts before class, compile them into lecture notes, submit them to the department for review, and publish them as internal materials to be distributed to students in the department."

"so……"

Chen Luyang stated her demands directly:
"If I can't get into the main translation group of the philosophy department,"

“I won’t join.”

I'm busy!!!

moment!

The entire philosophy department office fell into an earthquake-like silence!

The philosophy students who had just finished collecting assignments stood frozen at the door, their mouths agape, unable to believe what they were hearing.

Isn't this person incredibly arrogant?
A first-year student from another department said in front of a group of philosophy professors and teachers that if he couldn't get into the main compilation group, he wouldn't join...?
What's their background?

Is he crazy?

Chen Luyang is definitely not crazy.

He would be crazy if he were to act casually.

To be very disrespectful...

These philosophy teachers are pillars of the academic world.

But Chen Luyang is also someone who has lectured at the provincial Party School to high-ranking officials and a number of provincial leaders!

I've been on the provincial awards stage several times, and I've seen all sorts of amazing people and big shots!
Far away,

There's a national model worker and a level-eight workshop director in my family who keeps me in check.

These teachers simply couldn't control him.

Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate,

Chen Luyang spoke up first: "Teacher, I have class in a little while. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Li Zhengfan was also stunned. When he heard that Chen Luyang was willing to leave, he nodded and said, "Okay, okay."

finished,

Chen Luyang stood up, politely said goodbye to the teachers, and turned to leave.

The philosophy students at the entrance seemed to be on radar, their heads turning from left to right as they followed Chen Luyang's figure.

for a long time,

Xiao Hui was delighted.

"This isn't a student! This is a ravenous wolf!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than "Hungry Wolf" suddenly turned around like a tiger and flashed back into the classroom.

"Teacher~"

Chen Luyang raised her voice.

Suddenly abandoning her previous tough stance, she smiled obsequiously and asked ingratiatingly:
"If I don't become an intern translator, can I still borrow those books?"

Li Zhengfan slammed his hand on the table, speechless: "Hey Chen Luyang, I've noticed you have a dog-like face! It changes in an instant!"

Chen Luyang gave a thumbs up: "You really know your stuff, teacher! You have a great eye for people!"

Li Zhengfan said, "One thing at a time. You've lent me the book, so read it carefully."

Chen Luyang flashed a bright white smile: "Thank you, teacher!"

Although he had a fairly comprehensive understanding of philosophy.

But after all, knowledge is knowledge, and coursework is coursework.

He'll graduate in his sophomore year along with the senior philosophy students and receive his diploma!
Each of these books is very important!
Having received Li Zhengfan's reply, Chen Luyang finally felt relieved and left happily.

A philosophy student carrying assignments: ? ? ?
Not only did she refuse Professor Li's invitation to do an internship as a translator, she even borrowed books from him!
That's incredibly arrogant!
……

In almost an entire afternoon,

The name "madman" Chen Luyang quietly spread throughout the entire philosophy department.

A first-year economics student. Not only did he obtain an auditing certificate from Xiao Hui, the head of the philosophy department, but he also listened to Hegel's lectures with third-year students.
And he was sitting in the front row, taking notes in German.

He borrowed Li Zhengfan's book and also declined the philosophy department's offer to hire him as an intern translator.

He threatened that unless he joined the "main compilation team," he wouldn't have time...

These scenes were quite a shock to the philosophy students, not to mention...

The economics department's teachers and students were also completely bewildered.

"This child is too naive!!" Zhang Guozhen, the head of the Economics Department, frowned in his office.

"How can you talk to a teacher like that!"

Even if you really don't have time, you should find an excuse like "I'm not capable enough" to give the teacher a way out.

How can you just blurt out what's on your mind like that!
This leaves them absolutely no way out!
Fortunately, Li Zhengfan was a straightforward person who didn't mince words.

Xiao Hui is a decent guy; he still has some magnanimity.

Otherwise, if you encountered a petty professor, you might get humiliated in front of so many people by a freshman from another department.

Even if they don't say anything on the spot, they will make things difficult for Chen Luyang in the meantime, and set up little challenges for him in class, homework, or exams from time to time. They can make things so difficult that they will kill him!

"Simplicity is good!" Lian Yinghua was very satisfied.

"One must be simple when pursuing scholarship; those with too many ulterior motives are not suited for this path."

Finally, Lian Yinghua added:
"Only a pure student like Chen Luyang can truly excel in scholarship,"

"Have you guys seen this part of his lecture notes? The translation is so good!!!"

Lian Yinghua held the manuscript translated by Chen Luyang in her hand, and the more she looked at it, the happier she became. Her little face was rosy, just like Junjun's expression when he held a toy car!

Although those who participate in the compilation of original philosophical works are all seed candidates who can directly enter the "national core knowledge circle" and the "backbone of the intellectual world".

However, writing original economic works will earn you a place in the National Economic Research Center and the State Planning Commission, which urgently need reform theory talents. Whether you stay at the university as an academic leader or undertake economic reform work, you will have strong support and assistance.

The economics department rarely discovers such outstanding students; they can't even find enough for themselves, so how could they bear to give them to the philosophy department!

"Is Chen Luyang really that amazing?" the teacher of political economy and mathematical methods wondered.

His class was at the back, so he never realized how well Chen Luyang performed in class.

Lian Yinghua confidently boasted, "You'll see when you start your classes!"

……

As the welcome party draws ever closer, each department has begun reviewing the programs submitted.

The arts and culture scene in the economics department is fading.

The fact that they were able to launch a "Reform and Opening Up Disco" rap program was already an unprecedented and groundbreaking achievement.

The department's Party branch reviewed the script for the clapper talk and approved it directly, then submitted it to the university.

The final review will be conducted by the student union.

The school's review was scheduled for Thursday afternoon in the rehearsal hall behind the Arts and Humanities Building.

When Chen Luyang led a large group of economics students to the rehearsal hall, the hall was already full of people.

Some Chinese literature students turned their backs to the crowd and recited "Saying Goodbye to Cambridge Again" while facing the wall;

Some foreign language students were humming "Yesterday" softly, while others were rehearsing Shakespeare.

Several male students from the mathematics department made their own musical instruments out of glass bottles and performed percussion.

One of the chemistry students, carrying a huge bag, looked eager to try his luck and wanted to burn down the auditorium.

There are also people like Chen Luyang, who look like they're looking on with a gossipy expression, listening to the excitement on the left and looking at the new things on the right.

……

Anyway!

"Please keep your voices down, we can't hear the program."

A student from the Student Union's Arts and Culture Department stood up, stepped on a stool, and made a "stop" gesture to everyone.

With the student council in charge of maintaining order, the rehearsal hall became much quieter.

Chen Luyang led her classmates to sit on stools, craning their necks to look at the stage, their eyes full of curiosity.

"If I had known it would be this lively, I would have grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds."

Film projectionist Han Zhihui leaned closer and said, "Wenwei, I'm not kidding, I'm a little nervous right now."

Chen Luyang: "Come on, you're showing a movie to hundreds of people, what are you nervous about?!"

Han Zhihui panicked: "I'm showing a movie, not acting in one, of course I'm nervous!"

Luo Jianmin, a doctor who went to the countryside, also said, "Yes, I used to have one-on-one consultations, and I've never performed in front of so many people before."

Sun Legen, a young pig butcher, worriedly asked, "Cultural Committee, our program can't be cut, can it?"

Chen Luyang, with an expression that said, "Look at the way you guys are doomed," said:

"What were you thinking?! You even got eliminated..."

"Our economics department has launched such a program. Even for the sake of peace and common development within the department, we can guarantee a 100% pass rate."

Zheng Zhe asked, "Really?"

Chen Luyang rolled her eyes: "As long as you can recite your lines properly and don't slap the examiners on stage, we'll definitely go on."

We were talking when
During a skit on stage, a male student from some major was dressed as an old lady. However, his movements were too exaggerated, and his skirt accidentally got caught on a hook backstage, tearing all the way up to his knees.

That scene... was fucking wonderful.

Some girls shyly turned their faces away.
But there were also some sassy girls like Gao Xiaolin who just stared and laughed.

Luckily, a kind person below threw him a coat to cover his legs, otherwise he would have been mortified.

However, it was precisely because of this boy that the atmosphere of the rehearsal was heated up.

Even the instructor from the school's Youth League Committee chuckled, arms crossed.

Chen Luyang watched a few programs from below, then sneaked to the front to look at the program approval form, wanting to see where the Economics Department's "Grand Clapper Talk" was listed.

"one two three four five six seven……"

Chen Luyang calculated the number of programs, roughly estimated the time, informed Tao Runze, and then went to the restroom.

These past few days, Chen Luyang has become obsessed with munching on small fruit.

I'll eat a few whenever I have free time.

I don't know if it's because Xiaoguo ate too much, or if Xiaoguo and soy milk had some kind of magical chemical reaction.

He's been having stomach problems since this morning.

I had a really comfortable pooping session!
Chen Luyang returned to the Literature and History Building and was about to enter the rehearsal hall.

Suddenly, he was drawn to a sound, turned around, and peered into a small rehearsal room next door.

"Our heads may be short, our blood may flow, but our revolutionary will must not be lost!"

"You dare not admit it, but you have to admit it: your class, your rule, your power, are gone forever!"

"..."

A clear and resonant voice came from the rehearsal room.

Chen Luyang frowned slightly upon hearing this.

These lines...

Isn't that a line from Xu Yunfeng in "Red Crag"?

The drama club that used to compete with the economics department for classrooms with special permission was rehearsing the play "Red Crag".

Just thinking about how Pan Yu berated "Xu Yunfeng" that night...

Chen Luyang couldn't help but peek through the crack in the door at the stage.

A tall, handsome male student with thick eyebrows and big eyes was earnestly instructing Fu Zhigao to call Liu Siyang and arrange to meet him at the Third Liaison Office at 10 a.m. the next day.

Special permission resulted in this kind of pathetic performance?
Chen Luyang curled her lip in disdain.

He seemed to be holding a grudge, being petty, and mixed with subjective bias and unease.

"If this could be featured in the National Day performance and be a gift to the school-level event, then we could do it too!"

Chen Luyang crossed her arms, peeking inside furtively with her dog, and spoke disdainfully.

Instead of putting on some uplifting and inspiring programs to celebrate National Day, they've opted for these somber and melancholic ones.

Isn't this just causing trouble for our motherland?
really,

After rolling her eyes at "Xu Yunfeng" a few times, Chen Luyang turned her gaze to the reviewing teacher and the student union members.

The expressions of the teachers and students also showed a hint of seriousness.

I'm watching it right now!
Suddenly, Chen Luyang's eyes lit up!
"Xu Yunfeng" won't do, but "Reform and Opening-up Disco" will!
Not to mention the fast pace and lively atmosphere of the clapper talk show, which was also personally choreographed by Jiang Feng, the quality was exceptionally high.

Most importantly, it perfectly aligns with the theme of reform and opening up in the current era.

If we really have to choose, it's not like we don't have a chance!
Thinking of this,
Chen Luyang turned and jogged back to the rehearsal room, gathered her classmates together, and shared her thoughts.

"Cultural Committee, is this going to work?" Feng Tiesheng asked, somewhat doubtful.

“Although we are guaranteed to pass… shouldn’t we also respect the review teachers and students? If we do this, do you think we will be selected?” Luo Jianmin was also hesitant.

"Xiao Chen, why did you suddenly change your mind?" Tao Runze asked, puzzled.

Chen Luyang pointed to the small house next to them and asked, "Do you know who's in that house?"

The crowd shook their heads.

Chen Luyang lowered her voice: "Xu Yunfeng and Fu Zhigao are rehearsing inside. I watched from outside for a long time. Teachers from the school's Youth League Committee are also inside, probably reviewing the program."

"They dare to compete for National Day with their meager skills? We'll beat them to a pulp with a clapperboard!"

Upon hearing that the drama club was next door, the economics students instantly turned on each other with murderous intent!
