Chapter 8 No such person found
Tsing University, Chen Guotai, director of the admissions office, appeared in the office of the president of Tsing University.

"Principal, there is something urgent. I have to report to you in person. I just got the news from the Examination Authority of the Ministry of Education. There is a candidate in the national science examination who scored 750 points!"

"A bare score of 750? How is this possible!" The principal also looked incredulous: "This time the national mathematics test is very difficult, and the mathematics difficulty of science is the highest ever! You can still get a score of 750! Is the news accurate?"

"The information is provided by an alumnus of our Tsing University. He works in the Examination Authority of the Ministry of Education, and he personally checked the candidate's test paper, so the information should be accurate." Chen Guotai replied.

"Has the identity of the candidate been confirmed?" the principal asked again.

Chen Guotai shook his head: "No, it's not time to announce the results of the candidates. I only know that the candidate is from Qinhai."

"Qinhai City is not far away. Go to Qinhai immediately and recruit this candidate with a score of 750 into our Qingdao University at all costs!" the principal said immediately.

……

Capital International Airport, terminal.

Chen Guotai dragged his suitcase and arrived near the boarding gate. Just as he was about to find an empty seat to sit down, a familiar face appeared in his sight.

The other party was Huang Anmin, director of the Admissions Office of Peking University.

"It's not that enemies don't get together!" Chen Guotai smiled coldly, then stepped forward to say hello.

"Director Huang, I'm on a business trip!" Chen Guotai stepped forward to say hello.

"Director Chen, what a coincidence, you are also going to Qinhai City! Just in time, we are traveling together." Huang Anmin replied with a smile.

The two looked at each other and smiled. They appeared in a waiting area at the same time. They were most likely going to the same place. Both parties had already guessed that the other was going for the 750 points!
Both sides are very clear about what a score of 750 in the college entrance examination means, especially this year's score of 750 in science. Since mathematics is a hellish level of difficulty, it can be said to have the highest gold content in history.

Talent is rare! What's more, it also involves the face dispute between Qingbei.

Qingbei has been competing with each other for decades, and finally managed to get a score of 750. If this was taken away by the other party, it would definitely be a loss of face. When recruiting students, the confidence would be three points weaker.

For a perfect score in the college entrance examination, it is worthy of the admissions teacher in Qingbei to personally take action!

……

Qinhai Municipal Education Bureau.

Director Wen looked at the Qingbei admissions duo in front of him, feeling a little at a loss.

"What's going on? Why are the admissions directors from Tsinghua University and Peking University here? The province didn't even notify us!"

However, Director Wen has been in charge of education work for many years and is very proficient in business. He immediately realized the purpose of the Qingbei admissions duo's trip.

The college entrance examination results will be announced soon. At this time, the director of admissions office in Qingbei appears in Qinhai. The only possibility is that there is a candidate with extremely high scores here.

"It seems that we have a top pick here, and the score of this top pick is higher than that of other provinces, otherwise it would not be worth the visit of the director of Qingbei Admissions Office!"

After figuring this out, Director Wen had a big smile on his face.

After a few pleasantries, the admissions duo also made a request. They needed a detailed list of top students in Qinhai City.

Before the results of the college entrance examination were announced, even Qingbei didn't know who had scored 750 points. They could only get the list of all the top students, and when the results were announced, they would immediately contact the top student.

Of course, Director Wen was very cooperative with such a request. He immediately sent someone to retrieve the information on the top 50 people in the city from the previous preliminary examination and presented it with both hands.

After sending away the admissions duo, Director Wen also looked at the list.

"Leng Xiaojun from the No. 1 Middle School has ranked first in the city three times. It seems that he is the number one pick in all likelihood!"

Thinking of this, Director Wen said: "Notify Principal Wang of No. 1 Middle School and ask him to prepare to receive the Qingbei Admissions Office!"

……

Finally the day came for the results to be announced. After dinner, Zhang Wei and his family sat by the phone, waiting to check their college entrance examination results.

In this era, checking college entrance examination results does not depend on the Internet, but on the phone. Dial the college entrance examination results inquiry phone number, enter your admission ticket number, and the phone will tell you the results of each subject and the total score.

Moreover, the charge for this college entrance examination inquiry phone is much more expensive than a normal local call. To check the results, the phone bill will be gone for just a few dollars.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Zhang Wei called the college entrance examination results inquiry phone number for the first time, but the line was busy.

There are too many people making inquiries. In an era when the Internet is so developed in later generations, the system will be busy when checking results at the first time. What's more, in 2003, the inquiry system could not handle so much information.

When it was past nine o'clock, the inquiry number Zhang Wei called for the second time was still busy.

At around ten o'clock, the inquiry phone number was finally dialed.

Following the prompt, Zhang Wei entered his admission ticket number. Within a few seconds, a voice sounded in the receiver:
"No relevant information found, please search again!"

"Didn't find it? Did you enter the wrong admission ticket number?" Zhang's father asked.

"Then I'll try again." Zhang Wei called the inquiry number again, and sure enough, he still said the same thing, and no relevant information was found.

"The top 50 students in the college entrance examination will have their scores blocked. It's true." Zhang Wei knew exactly what was going on.

"I'll call!" Zhang's father grabbed the phone impatiently, dialed again and entered his admission ticket number, but still found no relevant information.

"What's going on? Why can't it be found?" Zhang's father looked at Zhang Wei with a puzzled face: "Did you not take the exam?"

"What a big brain! As an old man, you can't expect me to do better?" Zhang Wei sighed helplessly.

"Weiwei, go call your classmates and ask if anyone else has checked their scores?" Zhang's mother said.

Zhang Wei shook his head: "It's already past ten o'clock. It's not appropriate to disturb others at this time! How about we try again tomorrow?"

……

At the same time, Chen Guotai from the Admissions Office of Tsinghua University was also on the phone. He was asking for the identity information of candidates who scored 750 points.

Although the top 50 students in the province will be blocked, no matter how blocked, it is impossible to block the Qingbei Admissions Office. Chen Guotai can find out the provincial top scorers with just one phone call.

"The candidate with a score of 750 is named Zhang Wei. He is from Qinhai. Where is his admission ticket number? Okay, I'll write it down right away!"

Chen Guotai picked up the pen and wrote down Zhang Wei's admission ticket number.

Then Chen Guotai put down the phone and said to his assistant: "Hurry and get the contact information of the top students sent by the Education Bureau!"

Taking the information form of the top students, Chen Guotai immediately checked the names.

"Zhang Wei, Zhang Wei...why not?"

The fifty names were quickly read, and there was no candidate named "Zhang Wei".

Chen Guotai checked again and found that the name did not exist.

"Is there a mistake in the name?" the assistant reminded in a low voice, "How about we check the admission ticket number?"

"Yes, there is also an admission ticket number!" Chen Guotai immediately checked the last few digits of the admission ticket number.

still none!

There is no such person on the list of top students!
 The new year has arrived. I wish all book friends good luck and good health in all seasons!
