Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 513 The Good and Bad of Studying Abroad

Regarding the matter of studying abroad~ In the previous life, 20 years later, there were actually quite a few disputes on the Internet.

This is mainly because a large number of outstanding domestic intellectuals came directly after going abroad and never returned.

In addition, after some people went abroad, they directly turned into banana people, which led to a very bad impression on the Chinese people.

But at this meeting in 2000, there was actually nothing to discuss about studying abroad.

These days, whenever a child has the opportunity to study abroad, even if it's a waste of money~ then let the child go.

No way~ In the millennium, there is still a big gap between China and Western developed countries in terms of technology and economy.

So ~ during this period, the country was hungry for advanced knowledge of the West.

This also means that as long as you can go abroad to study, even if you can't stay abroad in the end, you can become a favorite when you return to China.

To put it bluntly~ as long as you can go to those developed countries to study abroad these days, it basically means that you can have a bright future in the future.

So ~ during this period, those families with conditions in China almost all wanted to get their children to study abroad.

Even many families without conditions have to create conditions for their children to study abroad.

But... if you ask how many of these children are willing to study abroad, it's hard to say.

Especially girls~ It is really a challenge for girls to go to a foreign country to study alone.

But~ in China these days, it is almost impossible for the vast majority of children to be able to refuse the "good intentions" from their parents.

Most children are used to the arrangement of their parents, and when parents let their children study abroad, few people choose to object.

Or. Some children tried to object, but the objection was ineffective.

And Li Xiaoying's family is obviously more open-minded in this regard, they chose to respect Li Xiaoying's opinion.

With Li Xiaoying's family background, it may be difficult to fully support Li Xiaoying's study abroad~ but it can barely support it.

So in terms of economy~ it should be no problem for Li Xiaoying to study abroad.

And with this girl's academic performance, it might not be a problem to get a scholarship when she goes abroad.

So ~ the right to decide whether to study abroad is finally given to Li Xiaoying herself.

And Li Xiaoying has infinite yearning and expectations for studying abroad, but on the other hand, she has a lot of worries.

After all, it is a foreign country~ For Li Xiaoying who has just grown up, the difficulty is really not small.

Take Chen Li as an example. Not long after he went to Germany, he deeply felt the cultural difference.

Although Chen Li's German level allowed him to avoid a large part of the inconvenience caused by the language, the cultural difference still made Chen Li very uncomfortable at that time.

Of course~Maybe Chen Li got used to it after staying for a long time, but no matter how you say it, studying abroad is not too difficult for a young girl like Li Xiaoying who has just grown up.

Some people may say that there are so many foreign students in Huaxia every year, don't others live well abroad?

What's the matter?Is Li Xiaoying special?

This... is actually just nonsense. It is said that it is "other people". Whether the life of others is good or bad, what is the matter with Chen Li?
If he didn't know Li Xiaoying, if he didn't treat Li Xiaoying like a younger sister, then whether Li Xiaoying wanted to study abroad or not had nothing to do with him.

It was precisely because of his fate with Li Xiaoying that Chen Li was willing to sit in the dining room and chat with this little girl about studying abroad on the first morning of the new year.

"You are from the Chinese Department~ What major do you want to study abroad?"

"I got an offer from Oxford Business School and my parents wanted me to study economics."

Li Xiaoying chatted with Chen Li while eating small biscuits~drinking tofu nao.

"Hiss~ tsk!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Li couldn't help but look again at the little girl in front of her who could be said to be slovenly because she just woke up.

After 20 years~Oxford University may be less well-known than those top universities in the United States in terms of popularity.

But in 2000, the reputation of Oxford University in China was much stronger than that of MIT.

In particular, Oxford University and Cambridge University even included domestic textbooks, and Chen Li remembered that the content seemed to refer to the annual rowing competition between the two universities.

And to be honest, in the millennium, the global influence of Europa is far from what it will be 20 years later.

As one of the representative countries of Europa, the influence of the UK in the world is beyond doubt.

Therefore, for a long time, British universities were actually the first choice for many domestic students.

As for the business school of Oxford University, it is ranked among the top three in the UK, and even in the world~ the ranking is almost within the top ten.

So ~ this little girl really deserves to be the No. [-] elementary school bully that even Liu Qingqing admires.

But the emotion is the emotion, things still need to be talked about.

"Economics seems to be a liberal arts too!"

It is surprising to say that both economics and finance often deal with numbers.

However, economics is classified as a liberal arts in China, and finance is not divided into arts and sciences.

"Ahem~Okay!"

"To be honest, if you want to consult me ​​about studying abroad, you are actually looking for the wrong person."

"Because I have never studied abroad, I can only give you some advice on the quality of studying abroad."

"For example, going abroad itself, you should also be very clear that the education abroad, especially in the aspect of university education, is indeed better than what we do in China at present."

"So~ purely in terms of learning more advanced knowledge, it is naturally a very wise choice for you to study abroad."

"And ~ in terms of future employment prospects, it may be better for you to study abroad than to graduate from Yanda."

"Of course~ The employment prospects here are based on our domestic employment situation."

"After all, I don't know much about the employment situation abroad, but the sea turtles in China are very sought-after."

"Well~ let me give you an example."

"As a boss, I have a position to fill."

"According to the current domestic employment prospects, if it is a graduate of an ordinary university, then I may give a monthly salary of 1500."

"If it is a graduate of a key university, I may give it to 2000-2500."

"But if you are a graduate of Yanda or Huaqing, I might give you 3000-4500."

"However. If I am a graduate of an ordinary foreign university, the salary I need to pay may be increased to five thousand or even higher at the beginning!"

"If it's a top university abroad, it's like the Oxford Business School your parents are going to let you go to."

"I estimate that if the monthly salary is not more than 1 yuan, I will not even be embarrassed to speak."

"Attention~ I'm just making an analogy based on the current domestic employment situation, not to say that the real salary level is like this."

"Actually, with a monthly salary of [-] yuan, it is impossible to recruit talented students who graduated from top universities."

"What I want to tell you is simply a phenomenon expressed from the treatment in the industry."

"I think you understand what I mean?"

Chen Li said a series of words, but Li Xiaoying opposite him was drinking tofu nao again, which made Chen Li suddenly want to drink another bowl.

However, he was already very full from breakfast, and the reason why he wanted to drink tofu nao was simply because he was "sweetened" by Li Xiaoying's eating habits.

"I understand, it's because the monks from outside are good at chanting scriptures!"

"I read newspapers that people often describe those returnees in this way."

Li Xiaoying snorted and finished the second bowl of tofu nao, and while tidying up the table obediently, she returned.

"Well~ the meaning is about the same."

"But you have to be clear, studying abroad~ actually has another meaning."

Chen Li nodded, then looked at Li Xiaoying who sat back after tidying up and continued to speak:
"migrant!"

When he said this, Chen Li suddenly paused, and then continued.

"Xiaoying~ You have to know that from the current point of view, our country's development level is still far behind compared with those developed countries in the West."

"And many people may choose to immigrate according to their personal needs after studying abroad and seeing the relatively developed society outside."

"Although ~ not everyone who studies abroad is eligible to successfully immigrate."

"But those who really learn something abroad in developed countries don't skimp on an immigrant visa."

"Of course~ I'm not saying that those who return to China have not learned anything."

"Actually, many people choose to return to serve their motherland after completing their studies."

"However... there are still many people who choose to stay abroad in the end."

"Even. The reason why many people study abroad is to immigrate abroad."

"I do not know"

Li Xiaoying interrupted Chen Li's speech, but was interrupted again by Chen Li's gesture in an instant.

"Listen to me!"

"The two points I mentioned above are all aimed at the impact of studying abroad itself."

"Now let me talk about the matter itself. Good or bad for you!"

"First of all, studying abroad is definitely an opportunity for you to enrich yourself and broaden your horizons."

"It's still the same sentence~ I have to admit that the educational resources of many schools abroad are much better than those in our country."

"So~ purely in terms of this aspect, you should indeed choose to study abroad."

"And~ this can also play a decisive role in your future."

"Especially if you are still studying at the Oxford Business School. With the popularity of this school, no matter whether you choose to work abroad or return to China, you will have a much higher starting point than ordinary people."

"So~ this is definitely an opportunity to change your life for yourself."

"As for the immigration question I just said, your answer right now doesn't make any sense at all."

"Because you can only know the gap if you go out."

"Maybe you think you can't immigrate now, but after you finish studying at Oxford University for a few years... your thinking will be changed."

"So on this issue, you don't need to discuss it with me, because that is your own choice in the future."

"Of course~ I said so much before, all about the benefits that studying abroad can bring to you."

"Now~ let's talk about the disadvantages of studying abroad."

"Ok?"

Just when Chen Li was about to continue explaining to Li Xiaoying some difficulties he would encounter when studying abroad, he saw that the doors of the bedroom and guest room were all opened.

It may be that Chen Li's voice was a bit loud just now, which caused Liu Qingqing and her roommates to get into a row.

"Is it noisy to you?"

Chen Li lowered his voice, but lowering his voice at this time obviously has no meaning.

"It's okay~ you talk about your own."

"I just heard you talking about studying abroad, so I want to listen."

The person who spoke was Yang Xue, Liu Qingqing's roommate. As Liu Qingqing's classmate with the best family background in the dormitory, her family actually planned to let her study abroad.

"That's right, brother-in-law, you talk about yours, and we will listen to it."

This time it was the elder sister in Liu Qingqing's dormitory who was speaking, and this character was a typical northeast elder sister.

Up to now~ only this one is still ranked according to the age of the few people in their dormitory, and has been calling Chen Li brother-in-law.

"That's fine~ Anyway, you are all high-achieving students of Yanda University. You may have the opportunity to study abroad in the future. It won't hurt to hear about it."

"By the way~ I bought breakfast in the kitchen, but it's probably a little cold, it's best to warm it up."

Chen Li just wanted to get up to get the breakfast he bought earlier, but Liu Qingqing pushed him on the seat and dragged Zhang Xiaoyan to the kitchen to get busy.

"Okay~ Let's continue. Now let me talk about the problems you may encounter when studying abroad."

"First of all, the biggest problem is the language barrier!"

"Although you are all excellent students of Yanda University, your English scores should not be bad."

"But English grades... and oral English are actually two different things."

"And to be honest, even if your spoken English is good, the actual application effect will be different in different language environments."

"for example."

Chen Li suddenly spoke a paragraph in very fluent English, but very fast.

"What I just said. Raise your hand if you understand?"

As soon as Chen Li finished speaking, Li Xiaoying on the opposite side immediately raised her hand, and then Yang Xue seemed to be a little hesitant, holding her right hand in front of her chest, wondering whether she should raise it or not.

"I probably understand the meaning of your words, but I don't feel like I fully understand them."

"Well, yes, it's normal for you to feel like this!"

"What I just said was actually American English, so what about the next paragraph?"

"."

"Who understands?"

Chen Li spoke some English again, but this time...even Li Xiaoying didn't raise her hand.

Because Chen Li just used English with a "London accent".

Many people think that London accent is standard English, but in fact standard English uses "Oxford accent", and London accent is a dialect.

For Li Xiaoying and others, they can still understand the Oxford accent, but the dialect.
"And then there"

"."

"."

Chen Li kept switching between British and American English pronunciation, and switched between different dialects in several regions.

Now Li Xiaoying and the others were almost in a daze, and they even suspected that they had learned a fake English.

"These, in fact, all belong to the category of English."

"Although... you study abroad, you will definitely not be exposed to so many dialect patterns."

"But the language barrier I'm going to talk about is actually at this point."

"After all~ when you study abroad, it is impossible for them to arrange for a Chinese person to teach you."

"So ~ the language problem is the biggest obstacle for you to study abroad."

Here Chen Li talked eloquently, while in the kitchen, Zhang Xiaoyan was dumbfounded listening to Chen Li's fluent English in the dining room. As for Liu Qingqing, who was heating tofu.
She is laughing ~ a proud smile!
