Chapter 1073 New Student
In Cupertino, California, not far from Apple's headquarters, there is also a school with a small reputation in the industry, Foothill De Anza City College.
This is a college founded in the 1960s. It covers an area of hundreds of acres. Like Stanford University, it has a beautiful environment and the campus buildings also have a distinct Spanish style.
The hardware facilities are not backward. Since it is in Silicon Valley, it naturally has its own high-tech center. It also has an Olympic-standard water sports center, an outdoor performance center with more than 5,000 seats, an auditorium that has hosted many celebrities, including Bill Gates' speeches, and an art auditorium where Broadway stage plays have been toured...
The school has more than 100 majors, more than 25,000 students, and more than 1,000 international students.
However, unlike the well-known Stanford and Berkeley universities in the Silicon Valley area, this is a two-year community college, similar to the Greendale Community College in the American TV series "Community".
Of course, Foothill De Anza City College is also considered to be a first-class community college.
There are a total of 6 community colleges in Silicon Valley, which is also a useful supplement to Silicon Valley's innovative talents.
All of these community colleges have many majors related to admission to four-year universities. Foothill De Anza City College has more than 80 transfer courses. Many students who study here have successfully entered famous schools such as Stanford, Berkeley, and California State University in their second year and entered their third year.
Community colleges are extremely sensitive to the needs of local businesses. They sign contracts with local companies to teach their employees. The technical training programs they provide have greatly promoted the connection between universities and companies.
In return, local high-tech companies will also send consultants to help local universities improve electronic teaching materials, and also provide part-time job opportunities for teachers.
The biggest advantage of these community colleges is that they are easy to enroll. For example, for international students, it actually has no requirements for TOEFL scores. Of course, the premise is that you have to spend money and time to go to the language school that has an agreement with it to participate in an intensive transition process for 8 weeks...
In short, it is similar to Greendale Community College in the Wastewood Alliance. The students here also come from all over the world and have a very wide age range.
Huang Jingping is currently studying in this school.

"Please combine the examples of some Silicon Valley companies to illustrate the successful application of public relations psychological strategies. This is today's homework."
The teacher who teaches "Consumer Psychology" tried his best to finish this speech amid the sounds of students pushing chairs, closing drawers, putting away textbooks and stationery, and chatting and laughing.
Huang Jingping, who was sitting in the first row, was still the most serious one. When the other dozen students in the class had already walked out, she ran over to stop the teacher, "Mr. Edward, this is the window I designed. Do you think it is reasonable?"
Edward, who was in his 50s, looked at it seriously for a few minutes, "Not bad, but it's better to make some adjustments in the coordination of the attention flow line."
"Huang, I suggest you transfer to business or other majors set up for transfer and further study. You will definitely have the opportunity to enter a state university in the future."
Such a studious student is simply a breath of fresh air in his class.
"Thank you, Mr. Edward, I will seriously consider your suggestion." Huang Jingping is not without interest. It is her regret that she could not go to college. Naturally, she also hopes to enter Stanford and become an alumnus with Feng Yiping.
However, this naturally needs to be discussed with Feng Yiping. Moreover, the restaurant project is currently being promoted intensively. She also has to take care of Amanda and take care of some company affairs. She may not have enough time to allocate.
She just walked out of the classroom with her backpack and textbooks. A yellow-haired boy who was only wearing a T-shirt in such weather, with a strong figure and tattoos on his arms, ran in front of her under the gaze of several people who were laughing over there. Oriental girls like her are also a breath of fresh air in the eyes of many students.
"Hello Huang, do you still remember me? I invited you a week ago. Do you want to come to my house tonight to attend the party?"
"Sorry, I'm not interested." Huang Jingping didn't even remember the guy's name. How could she attend a party of this nature?
"Huang, the participants are all classmates and some friends from school. We also invited friends who work at Apple and Yahoo. This is a good opportunity to make friends. You can really consider it."
"Sorry, please make way." How could Huang Jingping be interested in these?
A group of people over there started to make a noise. A guy in a baseball uniform shouted, "Man, I bet she doesn't even remember your name."
"Huang, you must know my name, I'm Miles,"
Huang Jingping didn't respond to him at all and walked quickly towards her car. Miles was still chattering and not ready to give up. Carol cut in and grabbed his hand, "Boy, don't bother her anymore, remember?"
"Who are you?"
"You don't need to know who I am,"
Miles's dissatisfaction slowly dissipated as the seemingly thin Carol's hand gradually increased strength, and finally nodded helplessly.
Amateurs with muscles are still not comparable to professionals.
"Carol, forget it, go home," Huang Jingping shouted in the car.
Miles stood on the roadside, rubbing his red wrist and watching the Range Rover go away. The group of friends came up to him, "Miles, just give up on this idea. Oh, there is also a full-time bodyguard. She must not be from an ordinary family. Don't think about anything good."
"I will definitely let her notice me," Miles did not feel frustrated.
In the United States, love stories like rich girls and poor boys are also very popular. Many movies show this routine.
"Hush, let's think about something practical. What are you eating for lunch today?"
…………
Jobs, who was already in the restaurant at this time, looked up unhappily to see who was interrupting his meal, but immediately greeted the visitor enthusiastically, "Hello, Dr. Sandra,"
This is his urologist. Of course, he hasn't dealt with her for a long time, at least a few years.
"Hello Steve," Dr. Sandra said seriously, "I heard about your recent situation from Arthur,"
The Arthur she was talking about was Arthur Levenson, a member of Apple's board of directors at the time and chairman of Apple after Jobs' death. He had a background in cancer biology and was very concerned about Jobs' recent situation.
"You should come to the hospital for a comprehensive examination. I'm happy to arrange it for you,"
Jobs was perfunctory about these things he didn't want to deal with as always, "Thank you, I'll consider it,"
"Steve, this is very important," Sandra emphasized, "You need to check it out,"
Jobs suddenly remembered what Feng Yiping said to him very seriously before returning to China, "Okay, I'll arrange the time,"
However, he was so devoted to his work that he forgot about it after that day.
…………
"Candy, don't run,"
In the garden behind the house, there was a small easel, with colored pencils scattered on the ground next to it, and a half-finished painting on it. Of course, you have to work hard and understand it very well to recognize that it depicts a yacht sailing on the sea.
In short, anyone who can understand this painting can definitely understand some of Picasso's confusing modernist works of art.
However, the little painter at this time had no interest in painting. Instead, he was having fun playing with a puppy on the lawn. It was a Labrador with yellow hair and a black nose. It was only a few months old. Amanda could hold it in her arms without much effort. It was her favorite friend now.
The chubby little guy was running hard in front with a bone toy in his mouth. Amanda, wearing a small flower skirt, was chasing after him with a giggle. She even had an advantage in speed.
"Hee hee," she threw the poor little guy to the ground, took the bone toy out of her mouth, and threw it hard into the distance, "Candy, go,"
The little dog named Candy by her called out helplessly twice, ran over to bite his beloved toy, but did not run back. He really didn't want to get close to this little master who always bullied him.
Amanda would not let her go, and just as she was about to chase her, Huang Jingping clapped her hands on the porch, "Baby, come here,"
"Mom," she no longer wanted the puppy, and ran towards Huang Jingping.
"Well, let mommy hold you, look at your skirt, look at your hands, they are so dirty, let's go, wash them and prepare for dinner,"
Amanda looked at the front door, "Where's Daddy, didn't he come back with you?"
"Didn't you just talk to Daddy yesterday?" Huang Jingping kissed her daughter on the face.
"But Amanda misses Daddy very much,"
ps: I have created a group, 454, 231, 228, welcome everyone to come, give more valuable suggestions, and look forward to the opportunity to communicate with everyone!
