Peking University and Tsinghua University spent very little time talking on the phone outside.
They didn't dare to linger outside, fearing that if they said a few more words, someone inside would intercept them.
When they came back, Peking University said beside them, "No matter what, the kind of school a child can attend and the kind of alumni they can have are very important!"
"Our school has a hundred years of history and is famous both domestically and internationally. I hope the child won't give up their bright and brilliant future for some immediate benefits."
Tsinghua University nodded continuously beside them.
After all, their two schools were equally renowned.
Praising the other was equivalent to praising themselves.
No matter what, they first needed to squeeze out these two latecomers from the circle.
As for who would be chosen between them, that would depend on their own abilities.
The teachers from the other two universities were unhappy: "What do you mean? What's wrong with our schools? We are also top universities in the country."
"You can't just push others aside because you're century-old universities. Besides, our school can offer 300,000 yuan and provide housing. These are all based on the child's practical needs."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and they were about to argue.
Peking University steeled themselves and said, "Our college is willing to offer a 50,000 yuan study grant and a 100,000 yuan housing subsidy!"
150,000 yuan, this was already the limit.
Originally, they had planned to increase the offer bit by bit.
The less money used to close the deal, the better they would complete their task.
But the other side was aggressive.
So they had to go all-in at once.
Tsinghua University beside them had always known what kind of person their old rival was.
Seeing that they had shown their trump card,
They instantly felt that their superiors weren't supportive enough: "We only have a 30,000 yuan scholarship, but our school's cafeteria is very good."
"As long as you come to our school, we will also have one-on-one assistance. In addition, we will also provide an 80,000 yuan housing fund!"
It wasn't that they were deliberately lowering the price.
This was the limit given by the higher-ups.
As top domestic universities,
Giving money and such were things that lower-tier schools liked to do.
They didn't really like doing it.
This time they were completely forced into it by other schools.
Finally, they heard the recruitment teacher from XiaMen University snort coldly, and immediately everyone looked over.
Then they saw Shen Wei say, "So which school do you want to go to?"
Instantly, all eyes turned to Zhao Jie and He Lingfeng.
Zhao Jie looked at his parents, not knowing what to choose.
But his parents were also caught in a decision paralysis.
They wanted to know what He Lingfeng would choose.
At this moment, He Lingfeng looked at Shen Wei and said, "You help me choose!"
He Lingfeng had completed his high school curriculum. He was very mature for his age and had his own ideas about many things.
Now letting Shen Wei make such an important decision for him showed that he truly regarded Shen Wei as his own.
Shen Wei knew that He Lingfeng's strengths were in mathematics and computer science.
Then she used the system to find out the domestic rankings of majors.
The first was Tsinghua University.
Tsinghua University said, "If you're going to go, go to the strongest. This way you'll definitely never regret it."
Shen Wei said, "If it were me, I'd choose Tsinghua University. But this is just for reference, the key is still your opinion."
Peking University beside them became anxious: "Don't! Our programs are also very powerful, and our academic leaders are leading various national key projects. We also have international exchange students!"
Ever since Shen Wei had said those words, Tsinghua University felt as if a weight had been lifted from their heart. They said, "Everything you mentioned, we have too, don't worry."
He Lingfeng said, "I choose Tsinghua University."
He trusted Shen Wei.
The feeling of being fully trusted by a child was truly heartwarming.
Shen Wei reached out her hand and the child threw himself into her arms.
He Lingfeng was picked up by Shen Wei. Actually, he was a child who got embarrassed easily.
Moreover, he inherently felt that he was an adult.
Only in front of Shen Wei would he show this childlike demeanor.
Seeing that He Lingfeng had chosen Tsinghua University, Zhao Jie also chose Tsinghua University.
His mother immediately agreed.
It wasn't for any other reason than for the children to look after each other.
Otherwise, the child was too young, and suddenly moving to a new place might be hard to bear.
If he could be with He Lingfeng, it would be much better.
Tsinghua University laughed heartily: "You've made the right choice by choosing us, don't worry, you definitely won't regret it!"
The others, seeing that they had been intercepted again, were all somewhat frustrated.
But they all left their business cards: "If you regret it halfway, you can still contact us anytime. The housing and money we mentioned earlier are still valid!"
"As long as you haven't enrolled, we still have a chance."
The smile froze on the face of Tsinghua University's recruitment director.
These people really wouldn't give up until the last moment.
Then he said, "When you come to Beijing, I'll take you around to play and handle the enrollment at the same time!" This made these people completely give up hope.
Peking University was the most speechless: "We were the ones who first discovered these good seedlings, and you just came and snatched them away. That's not playing fair."
"Normal times are normal times, competing for talent is competing for talent. Don't say those useless things, we all follow the rules."
Seeing that this matter had come to an end, the group could only take separate taxis back.
Shen Wei said to He Lingfeng, "Good boy, you're going away to school now. You must study hard, understand?"
The little poor thing who once couldn't eat his fill had now grown into someone fought over by nationally renowned universities.
The child nodded quietly: "I definitely will."
The next day,
Everyone who came to the office heard Doctor Lu vividly describing yesterday's talent war to them. After listening, everyone was thrilled.
They had heard about universities competing for students before, but had never actually seen it.
They never thought that a genius would emerge from their own workplace,
Actually causing such a phenomenal stir.
Someone had even leaked this incident online.
Netizens were immediately stunned.
"I've really had enough of this life where I'm not as good as my elders or as good as the younger ones."
"Peking University and Tsinghua University were always my childhood dreams. I only scored a little over 300 in the college entrance exam, but now my internet son has been admitted. My heart feels comforted."
"Who said before that Starry Sky Kindergarten was hyping up geniuses? Do they think the university people are all fools? They must be competing for someone with real talent and learning."
"My high school brother has already changed his phone wallpaper to He Lingfeng's photo, saying he wants to worship the God of Literature."
"So our brother chose to become a chef while studying and working hard?"
"I knew investing in Starry Sky Kindergarten wouldn't be a loss."
