Chapter 116 Academy
College.
Apart from the central city, it is the largest city in the two major regions of East and West.
The city as a whole is a school, with the local government as the board of directors and the nominal highest head as the principal.
Every year, the college recruits a large number of students from other underground cities, teaches natural science knowledge, and selects the best among them through examinations, grants keys, and expands the team of underground human scientists.
Its purpose is naturally to accelerate the development of control and application of rules and better benefit underground humans. And these large numbers of students are also from the powerful class in various underground cities.
When those citizens, laborers, farmers and other basic production workers who are numerous but low-status want to send their children to the college to study, of course there are corresponding channels.
Special enrollment came into being for this.
This is the product of the special enrollment bill proposed by the 11th president of the college. This provides a channel for the lower-level people to access precious knowledge. It not only eases the contradictions in the underground society, but also creates some extra income for the college, so that the board of directors can earn more profits.
At the same time, the large and cheap special recruitment group not only did not bring a bad impact to the students who officially graduated from the college, but also enriched the major laboratories, scientific institutes, and grassroots dangerous positions, and promoted the development of each city.
Similarly, the threshold for becoming a special recruitment student of the college is not low.
First of all, the age must not exceed 20 years old, and the body must be healthy and not disabled. At the same time, there must be enough money to take the intercity train to the college, and then register for special recruitment in the college's management department.
After registration, the admissions department will take over and conduct a week-long general education course training for the registered students, and then conduct an assessment.
If the assessment is passed, then you can prepare to go through the admission process and apply for a tuition loan.
The tuition fees for special recruitment are very high, and the lower-class families have no possibility of being able to afford these tuition fees. At the same time, the student loans also have extremely high interest rates, which require these special recruitment students to work for more than ten years after graduation to pay off.
But even so, there are still a large number of people from lower-class families who have some insights and whose lives are not extremely difficult, who want to send their children to the college every year to become special recruitment students.
Because as long as you can graduate from the academy as a special student, you can at least stop doing physical labor and even have the opportunity to become a citizen of some small underground cities!
On this train that departs from the marginal city and passes through the Sun and ends at the academy, Levi can see many young people from low-income families, who bring their own dry food and crowd into the cheapest special car with the expectations and hopes of the whole family, ready to survive the journey of more than ten days and go to the academy to register for special students.
Because he has a black card, Levi did not squeeze into the special car like them.
He is not a hypocritical person. He should enjoy when he has the conditions. It is sick to endure without suffering.
He did not stay in the Sun. Next week is the annual enrollment season of the academy. It is much more convenient than the usual temporary registration. So in order to hurry up, he just bought a lot of newspapers near the Sun station and then boarded the nearest train directly.
Compared with the last time Levi left, the current Sun City area seems more desolate and empty. Under the strict control of the military government and the rebellion of the Yuguang workers, most Yaoguang citizens chose to leave their homes to avoid disaster.
Now many pages of Sun newspapers are praising the military government and belittling the labor resistance army, and only a few are still reporting other news.
Among them, there are reports about the change of regime in Zhulan during this period.
Because of the biological people, other cities including Zhulan were laughing at Sun, and now it is finally Sun's turn to laugh at Zhulan.
It's just that the massacre of the Lanting Grand Council Hall has not been reported yet, otherwise it would definitely have overwhelmed the topic of the military government and the labor resistance army and made the front page of the day.
At the same time, in the newspapers of the previous two days, Levi also saw news about farmers who fled from Zhulan and successfully arrived at the Yuguang labor control station.
These farmers did not dare to stop in any city on the way, and relied on the original full fuel stored on the train to drive to Yuguang!
This incident also caused a big stir, and even many cities that were originally indifferent to the Sun's labor rebellion were now aroused to resist.
After all, if the farmers in Zhulan can rob the train and escape today, it may be the bottom producers in their city who will do such a thing tomorrow!
It is hard to say whether the Sun's labor rebellion will succeed, but it has greatly inspired many bottom producers in the underground city.
Since they can't survive, why can't they learn from those laborers and fight?
Not only that, in addition to the Sun Biological Man No. 626 who has been declared a saint by Li Ming, the Zhulan farmers who fled to Yu Guang also announced to the public that Zhao Wei, who was burning, killing and looting in Lanting, was not a murderer at all.
He was avenging those poor farmers, and it was also because of him that they had the opportunity to escape from Zhulan!
Such claims were spread by Yu Guang's labor resistance army. Whether the citizens in the city agree or not is secondary, but those bottom producers believe such words.
Because from the news from Zhulan, Zhao Wei has been killing those in power just like the biological people of the sun!
For this reason, in Yuguang, the Labor Resistance Army erected statues for both biological people 626 and Zhao Wei.
Levi also saw the two statues from a tabloid newspaper, with the statue of biological man 626 in front and Zhao Wei in the back.
To be honest, they didn't look like him. The statues that Li Ming had seen were all his transformed appearances, and the farmer Lao Hong was the same.
But this kind of statue is symbolic, which made Li Wei smack his lips with a slightly complicated mood.
As he flipped through the pages, Li Wei suddenly saw a tabloid called Sun Education News.
And on it, some news and events about the college were reported.
The largest article was about the recent announcement by the college student union about three special recruits who violated the rules and trespassed into the restricted area, beat up classmates, violated school rules, and were expelled and resold to compensate for tuition.
At the end of this incident, it was also mentioned that some special recruits did not obey the college's final handling of the matter, and held an illegal assembly to slander classmates and teachers.
The 38 special recruits who led the crime have been arrested and detained by the college's disciplinary department. They are waiting for the student council to report to the school board for a decision and proceed to the next step.
