Ye Chen and Li Li were walking on the University campus.
They constantly saw students riding Shared Bikes.
"Our Shared Bikes were just put out yesterday, and quite a few people are riding them today. It seems the effect is very good," Li Li said, his joy evident on his face.
Ye Chen nodded.
Glancing around casually, there were quite a few people riding Shared Bikes on campus.
The two of them went to take a look at the dormitory buildings.
At the Shared Bikes parking areas for these dormitories, basically half of them had been ridden away.
This showed that the deployment of Shared Bikes was very successful, and the University students liked them very much.
Li Li said happily, "Ye Chen, we've really succeeded."
Ye Chen nodded. "It seems the results are indeed good."
The two of them took a turn around the campus, a trace of excitement on Li Li's face.
The results after the deployment of Shared Bikes even exceeded his imagination.
In this world, no one complains about having too little money.
After all, the real estate industry always reaches saturation; Jiangzhou is only so big, after all.
Therefore, Li Li had been looking for new investment projects.
After all, everyone knows that real estate makes money, so everyone comes to share this cake.
But when there are more people sharing, it becomes harder and harder to make money.
Now, Li Li's real estate company was facing a bottleneck.
Although their company was still making money, it was too difficult to improve.
The appearance of Shared Bikes could be said to have come at just the right time.
Although Li Li wasn't clear about what Shared Bikes would eventually develop into.
But for Li Li, this was also a new attempt.
"Next, we need to expand production and then perfect the Shared Bikes app," Ye Chen said with a smile.
Ye Chen understood that he had to speed up production immediately so that others wouldn't have time to react and he could quickly occupy the market.
At the peak, Ye Chen could sell all his shares in the Shared Bikes.
As for Li Li, Ye Chen would naturally remind him to sell together and then make new investments together... The next day, the scores for the National Higher Education Entrance Examination finally came out.
Ye Chen went to the Orphanage to check the scores with Xia Yingluo.
Checking scores is the most nervous moment for all High School students.
Three years of hard study would be revealed at this moment.
Ye Chen wasn't nervous, but Xia Yingluo was clearly feeling a bit nervous, her hands were even shaking.
At nine o'clock, Xia Yingluo dialed the score inquiry number.
Seeing Xia Yingluo so nervous, Ye Chen also took out his phone and dialed the score inquiry number.
After a while, Xia Yingluo's voice of pleasant surprise reached Ye Chen's ears.
"Ye Chen! You scored 749 points. You only lost one point in Chinese; you're just one point short of a perfect score!"
"Yingluo, your exam score is out too, 732 points!"
The two of them spoke almost at the same time.
Neither of them checked their own scores first, but rather the other person's score.
Xia Yingluo said excitedly, "Ye Chen, it seems you will definitely be this year's Top Scholar."
"Mhm, your score is also good; Huaqing University is a sure thing."
At this time, Li Sitong's call also came through.
She scored 721 points.
With the scores of the three of them, they could choose any University.
However, Ye Chen understood that Li Sitong wouldn't apply to Huaqing University; she would choose to develop in the Entertainment Circle.
Ye Chen did not oppose Li Sitong's choice.
On the contrary, if Li Sitong entered the Entertainment Circle, Ye Chen could help her even better.
After all, Ye Chen possessed memories of his past life; many popular songs of the future and even some explosive movies were all stored in his mind.
Ye Chen even had an idea: should he start an entertainment company? After all, film and television would be very profitable in the coming years.
While the two were talking, Ye Chen's phone rang.
It was Mother Ye calling.
"Hello, Ye Chen, where are you? A lot of people have come to the house."
Ye Chen could hear that Mother Ye's voice was a bit nervous... At this moment, quite a few people had crowded into the Ye family home.
Mother Ye was tidying up the house when a group of people carrying cameras suddenly rushed in.
These people filled the Ye family home to the brim.
Wang Chao introduced the identities of the visitors to Mother Ye with a beaming smile.
"Ye Chen's mother, these are all leaders from our Education Bureau, this is our Jiangzhou Middle School Principal, and these two are reporters from Jiangzhou Television Station; they've all come to interview Ye Chen."
Mother Ye, who had never seen such a scene, was also startled.
There were leaders from the Education Bureau, the Principal of Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School, and reporters from the television station. Although Mother Ye was easygoing, she was still a bit flustered.
"Interview Ye Chen? What happened to Ye Chen?" Mother Ye was completely bewildered.
The Director of the Education Bureau said with a smile, "You must be Ye Chen's mother. Don't be nervous. Congratulations on raising such an excellent son. Your son is this year's provincial Top Scorer in the National Higher Education Entrance Examination. It's incredible."
Jiangzhou had produced a Top Scorer in the National Higher Education Entrance Examination; as the Director of the Education Bureau, he was naturally happy.
This was a performance achievement; it was a once-in-a-century occurrence for Jiangzhou, something worth bragging about.
"My son is the Top Scorer in the National Higher Education Entrance Examination?" Mother Ye was suddenly a bit stunned.
Mother Ye was very easygoing and didn't actually care much about Ye Chen's studies; she only knew that her son was always ranked first in Jiangzhou Middle School.
But this time, he was the provincial top scorer.
Ye Chen usually didn't seem to study that hard; how could he possibly become the provincial top scorer?
If it weren't for the television cameras pointed at her, Mother Ye might even have suspected these people were scammers.
"Where is Student Ye Chen?" The Principal on the side looked into the room.
The person they came to interview this time was Ye Chen, not Mother Ye.
Mother Ye said, "He went out early this morning. I've already called him to tell him to come back."
Hearing that Ye Chen wasn't there, the group of people didn't quite know what to do.
They thought Ye Chen would definitely be at home to check the scores; they didn't expect to come all this way for nothing.
The atmosphere became a bit awkward.
"Since Ye Chen isn't here, let's first interview Ye Chen's parents and his Class Advisor to see how they raised our first Top Scholar in Jiangzhou," the reporter whispered.
Yes, that works.
Several people's eyes lit up. Right, wasn't this also very good material?
After they found Ye Chen and interviewed him, they could add this segment in as well.
Perfect.
Wang Chao was delighted in his heart; he could finally have a good brag.
Hearing that she was going to be interviewed, Mother Ye also felt a small sense of excitement.
"Excuse me, as the provincial Top Scorer in the National Higher Education Entrance Examination, Ye Chen must usually study very hard, right?"
"Ye Chen, he is the most hardworking student in our class. His grades have always been among the best. The teachers and students in the class all like him very much. Every day, he's always the first to arrive and the last to leave. Sometimes when the lights are about to go out, I'm the one who has to urge him to go home, and he still looks unwilling..."
As Wang Chao spoke, his face was filled with memories.
The Principal and the Director of the Education Bureau on the side were also very satisfied hearing Wang Chao's speech.
Student Ye Chen was indeed very hardworking; no wonder he became the Top Scorer in the National Higher Education Entrance Examination. He should be well-publicized as a role model for all High School students to learn from.
"Are you talking about my son?"
Mother Ye's voice rang out. She looked at Father Ye with some confusion. "I remember our son was always very playful. He often stayed in bed and was late in the morning, and he was often kept after school by teachers to finish his homework. Besides, Ye Chen's grades weren't always excellent; in the second year of High School, it seemed he failed several subjects!"
Father Ye: "..."
Old Wang: "..."
Principal: "..."
Education Bureau leaders: "..."
