"In fact, there is nothing good about the computer science department. You face the computer every day and you may become nearsighted if you are not careful."
Chen Ming said with a smile, easing everyone's expectations.
However, they said: "There's nothing wrong with playing computer every day. We would like to play, but we may not be able to meet them."
They are very clear about the gap between themselves and Chen Ming.
Chen Ming excels in all aspects and is wanted by all companies, so you have the right to choose.
But they are different, they are relatively mediocre, and even poor in some aspects.
They can only be like commodities on a factory assembly line, silently waiting for distribution.
As for the quality, if you go to a large shopping mall with a wide variety of goods, you will be surrounded by first-class high-end goods.
As for those of poor quality, if you climb mountains and wade through water to get to the convenience store, you may find that all you see are 50-cent products without any quality assurance.
Li Long was also in the class at this time. After hearing that Chen Ming decided to go to the Information Department, he was also surprised. He was also regretful.
He led the Second Armored Company under the company commander, and he also knew that the company commander had always wanted Chen Ming to pass.
Li Long naturally had the same idea. He wanted to win over Chen Ming and continue their friendship.
But Chen Ming has made his choice now and it cannot be changed. He also respects Chen Ming's choice and did not say anything.
After listening to everyone chatting for a while, he said, "Little duty officer, go to the cafeteria to prepare dinner. It's almost time to serve."
He Xue was the one on duty today. After hearing what the monitor said, he quickly stood up and rushed to the cafeteria.
After He Xue went out for a while, the squad leader took them to the cafeteria and sang military songs at the cafeteria door, his voice still loud and clear.
When I was tired from training and hungry, what I looked forward to most was the food in the cafeteria.
There was no training today and the energy consumption was not much, so I didn’t have any expectations for the cafeteria.
After eating, everyone followed the monitor to the classroom to watch the news broadcast.
The news broadcast hasn't started yet, but commercials are scrolling on the TV and the speakers are filled with brainwashing ads.
Everyone sat in the large classroom.
In the past, what they looked forward to most was the news broadcast. After all, it was a half hour in the day when they could sit quietly. Before each news broadcast, they were all excited.
But today is different. Many people are silent and there is a different emotion in the air.
The assessment for new recruits is over, and tomorrow they will be awarded ranks and assigned to companies. It is just like graduation season, and everyone is reluctant to leave.
Although the three months in the recruit company were hard and tiring, they were also the three months of their transformation, and witnessed their transformation from ordinary people to soldiers!
As the news broadcast ended, everyone walked out of the classroom.
It is December now, and it gets dark quickly. It is only half past seven, but the sky is completely dark. The breeze blows slowly, and it feels a little cool when it blows on the skin.
Bright street lights illuminate the road ahead, and the crisp sound of military boots stepping on the clean stone road echoes.
Everyone walked slowly because the assessment was over and there was no need to rush back to recite the rules and regulations like before.
They walked slowly and the squad leader did not urge them.
"Do you think we will miss these three months in the recruit company in the future?"
Yu Jun looked at the scenery along the road.
I had never noticed the roadside before because I was in a hurry.
Now if you look closely, although everything is still the same as before, it has a different meaning.
"Yes!"
Chen Ming took a deep breath and looked at the night sky.
The night sky is cloudless tonight, but because the street lights are too bright, the light of the stars is blocked, and their shadows cannot be seen at all. There is only a bright moon hanging high in the sky, revealing a lonely and cool feeling.
Although we will be separated tomorrow and go our separate ways.
But if they recall their time in the army, they will definitely think of the unforgettable experiences of these three months and those unforgettable people... .
Chapter 51: Investiture Ceremony, the first step towards becoming a formal soldier!
Everyone who returned to the dormitory stared at each other.
It was not even eight o'clock in the evening yet. If it were any other day, they would have gone downstairs with the rules and regulations ready to read them aloud.
But now that the assessment is over and the theoretical results are out, there is naturally no need to recite the rules and regulations anymore.
With this sudden free time, they really didn't know what to do.
He Dong was packing his things. After the distribution tomorrow, everyone would pack their things and go their separate ways.
But after a while, I found that there was actually nothing to clean up.
The army emphasizes orderliness, and things that are not used on a daily basis will be put away properly.
After tidying up casually, He Dong turned around and sat back on the stool.
"Brothers, we will be separated tomorrow. I can't bear to leave you."
Tonight is their last night living here, and tomorrow night they will start a new life in different companies.
Chen Ming already has the envy of working in the Information Technology Department, but where is their destination
The reluctance to part and the confusion about the future come together and constantly strike at everyone's heartstrings.
Yu Jun walked up to He Dong, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a literary manner:
"Fatty, all good things must come to an end. Separation is only for the sake of a better reunion. Anyway, we are from the same county. After we retire in two years, we can still get together often."
He Xue also nodded, "Yu Jun is right. When the time comes, we will take off our military uniforms, go to the street stalls to eat barbecue and drink beer, and then go to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet and play however we want!"
He Dong, Yu Jun, He Xue and Chen Ming are all from Hongrao County. Yu Jun and He Dong are locals in the county. When they want to get together after retirement, they can just make a phone call.
I just don’t know if the feelings back then were as pure as they are now.
He paused, thought for a while, looked at Chen Ming, and said with a helpless smile: "But squad leader, you are so outstanding, I am afraid you will not be able to retire in two years. The army will definitely keep you."
After two years in the army, those with excellent performance can stay in the army and be transformed from conscripts to volunteers.
The treatment of volunteer soldiers will also increase by several levels.
For an outstanding person like Chen Ming, the army will definitely use various means to mobilize him to stay before he retires.
Chen Ming nodded. If nothing major deviated from the norm in his future, this would probably be the case.
He glanced at the three of them and said with a smile, "You haven't even been assigned to a company yet, and you're already thinking about what to do after retirement? If you can stay in the army, you'd better stay."
They were all students who had just graduated from high school and had only a high school diploma. He 507xue even dropped out of junior high school.
With this kind of education, it is difficult to find a good job outside.
If you can stay in the army, although the training is tiring, the allowances and benefits are very good, and it is a good way out.
Moreover, if you stay in the team for a long time, some local policies support retirement and transfer to other jobs.
As a veteran, he knows clearly how great the competitive pressure will be in the next few years.
Everyone listened to Chen Ming's words and smiled bitterly: "Even if we want to stay, the army doesn't necessarily want us to. Unlike you, the army is eager for you to stay."
Chen Ming smiled and shook his head. He suddenly remembered a joke he had seen before his rebirth, and said jokingly, "Stay, stay for another three years, use the retirement pay from running five kilometers until you vomit, and standing guard until your lumbar muscles are strained, to marry a girl who has had youth for many people, and she still thinks your gift is not enough."
After hearing this, the three of them froze.
These words are really heartbreaking!
…
That night, they talked for a long time. Unlike when they first got on the train, the topic of their conversation was no longer about games, but about life in the army, or what happened before they joined the army.
Perhaps this is also a kind of transformation. They have unknowingly been changed by the melting pot of the army, becoming more mature and more confident. They no longer need to find their lost selves in the game.
It was not until the lights-out whistle sounded at night that everyone reluctantly returned to bed to sleep.
But it's hard to fall asleep.
At six o'clock the next morning, everyone woke up on time, but no one got up, as if they wanted to lie on the hard bed for a while longer, as if naively thinking that if they lay there for a while longer, time would pass and they wouldn't have to say goodbye.
The monitor was very punctual, but he didn't call them. He washed up and walked out of the dormitory.
No one spoke, everyone was quietly enjoying the last moments in the recruit company.
An hour passed, and at seven o'clock, the squad leader pushed open the dormitory door and walked in, holding a few new uniforms in his hands, wrapped in a layer of plastic film.
"One by one, why are you pretending to be asleep? Hurry up and get up and change your clothes!"
Everyone then got up and received their uniforms from the squad leader.
These uniforms must have been carefully tailored according to their body shapes, and they fit them perfectly.
Casual clothes, like suits, look particularly straight when worn.
A well-fitting suit or casual clothes can often hide various body defects.
Everyone looked at each other after they changed into casual clothes and felt that they looked more handsome.
He Dong's transformation is almost the biggest. When he was wearing a military uniform, he looked bloated and looked like a little fat man.
However, after changing into casual clothes, the extra fat on his body was perfectly covered up, and he looked strong instead of fat.
They crowded in front of the only mirror in the dormitory, looking at themselves in the mirror, and couldn't help but grin.
