Chapter 78
Graduation Season
Rocksville is a typical small-scale suburb where a large number of residents commute to and from San Francisco within 30 minutes. Rocksville School was one of the five secondary schools here, just a few years ago it was an ordinary public school.
However, in the past three or four years, various educational programs have begun to be brought in to boost students’ academic enthusiasm and investments in the quality of classes and special activities have begun to take effect.
Not only did the satisfaction of students and parents increase, but also the examination of the school level increased greatly every year.
American mothers are also passionate about their children’s education. In particular, the Silicon Valley area is one of the areas where high-quality parents are gathering and the heat of education is particularly high.
Rich people send their children to well-known private schools, not public ones, or parents with brilliant children try to send them to a special Magnet School where they receive them separately.
Of course, most middle-class and medium-class people raise their children depending on their condition. However, everyone wanted their children to have a good education, and Rocksville’s education heat was relatively high, so the development of Rocksville School was greatly welcomed by local residents.
Most schools near here graduate in late May to early June, and today is the Rocksville School graduation ceremony. Nearby hair salons may have had the busiest days of the year due to graduation ceremonies on the same day as their nearby looses and schools.
Not to mention how cool girls are at graduation parties and events, and boys who are always clumsy get their heads tidied just as often. In addition, nearby florists are the busiest day of the year on graduation day.
All school staff below Principal Hamilton are diligently attending the graduation ceremony. The graduation ceremony is the largest event of the year, from the placement of seats for graduates to the sequence of progress, to guidance for families and audiences, to the choir and presentation prepared by students.
“This is probably the most sacred graduation ceremony of all time.” Principal Hamilton smiles at the crowds and talks to Jefferson who came to install the projector.
“I know. Many alumni have graduated this time. You know, this is a pretty good entry fee. Haha.“
Dr. Jefferson rolled his head in the wrong direction and made the people he was listening to laugh.
Jennifer and I are headed to a graduation ceremony downtown Roxville. I got a call from Principal Hamilton last month, asking if I could say a few words for my subordinates at the graduation ceremony.
I felt annoyed to attend the boring graduation ceremony, but I had no choice but to allow Roxville School as a principal who was special to me and had seen a lot of comforts for me in its own way.
When I think about school, I think about the memories that I first came to America and the memories with Jennifer or my friends that made me smile by myself.
“It’s your first time coming to school with me since graduation, right?” Jennifer sitting next to you, grabbing her hand and talking.
“I’m excited, but it’s been so long, what should I do to apologize to the teachers? Eeeeee!”
Jennifer makes a hesitant expression to see if she has ever visited in the past 4 years.
“How many of the kids I graduated with came to school with? If everyone is busy living in the same world these days. I’ve been there a few times because I have something special to do. ”
I comforted him with a kind word. Jennifer doesn’t have a thick face either. She’s not worried about anything.
“Kick! That doesn’t make any sense. I wasn’t busy trying to eat. “
Jennifer misunderstood the flaws of my words and burst into laughter. The sunny smile was good to see, so I laughed with him.
After talking in the car, I arrived at the event shortly. The graduation ceremony was said to be rented out separately in the city, but when I arrived, I saw a lot of cars. Whether the graduation ceremony has already begun, the parking lot is not visible to people.
When I pulled over to the front door of the building and exited, I saw someone coming from inside the building.
“No, Dr. Sheila, were you out there? ”
“My John is here, of course. Haha.” The teacher welcomes him with a bright smile. Sheila is in charge of English, and she helped me a lot when I first came in for my ESL course.
He was married in his 30s now, but when I transferred to school, she was a beauty in her late 20s and she was a target for students. Of course, it’s still beautiful.
At the time, ESL students were alone for a while, but I always remember being excited when the teacher personally coached me.
“Sir, how are you?” Jennifer notices you next to her and quickly greets you.
“Jennifer, it’s been a long time. You look so much prettier than you used to. ”
“Thank you, sir. Stay with me. ”
After a short interrogation, you take two guards inside. The teacher said that students are entering now, so there is still time.
Following Sheila’s instructions, she entered the door connected to the front of the auditorium. Suddenly, I don’t think it was like this when I graduated, but a lot of people came.
“John, why are there so many people? Did you expand your school garden?” Jennifer asks me next to her, and I have no idea.
Principal Hamilton looks at me and waves slightly to see if I’m coming in. Five of our men came in at once, and thousands of pairs of eyes in the auditorium were drawn to us, even if it was a bit clumsy, because of the forces of the guards in black suits.
Jennifer holds my arm tightly because she feels the pressure on her eyes. I’ve already gotten used to places worse than this, so I don’t feel overwhelmed. I took a look around and sat down to the seat where the teacher guided me.
“So many people here? Jennifer, did you grow a garden?” About 600 people came to my graduation ceremony just four years ago, but now it’s roughly twice that.
“Hoho. Why would John ask me that? He said,” I was dumbfounded by Sheila’s wrong answer.
I’m sitting a little bit, so I’m in the school band department, but I think I’m pretty good at it. In the meantime, there are more students in the band and they are much more skilled than we are.
Then the student representative came out and talked about his graduation, the fun things he did at school, and the rewarding and unforgettable memories with a little humor.
Watching the graduation ceremony going on, I realized that I was sitting in the chair in front of me just 4 years ago, and I felt new. At that time, I never thought I would get here so quickly.
“Next, we have an alumni waiting for you. If you want to talk about him, he’s famous in Roxville for not knowing anyone. Oh, I was wrong. He’s one of the most famous people in my country right now. Now you can guess who it is. ”
“Yes! Oh-ho! Kiyo!” Suddenly there’s a huge response in the auditorium, some screaming like Indians.
“John, wasn’t it your turn next? ”
Jennifer looks at me with slightly questionable eyes, but I’m confused as well. I thought they were introducing me, but I’m not sure when I see them screaming. Were there any Hollywood stars at the same time?
“Haha. What a reaction. It seems to me that he hasn’t yet realized his popularity. As many of you already know, I’m going to continue for the audience that you don’t know. He is regarded as a dominant figure in Silicon Valley, and he runs Google, Myway, Classmate.com and Gamemaker Soft and Investment. And you recently acquired Polygram Film, right? ”
While the host was speaking, I knew it was me, but I had never known I was so popular. Jennifer, who sits next to the introduction of a stranger moderator, touches my arm with a bright smile.
“He is also a director of the Microsoft, Yahoo, and American Online Time Warner groups. Personally, I was intimate with him on the Comments Alba project. By the way, did any of you do any” special “activities at the time? ”
“Whoa-ah!” Suddenly, people in one corner shout aloud, but you can hear shouting along the way.
Huff-puff! It was Chris who was working in front of the commenter when I wanted to get to know the host a lot.
“John, what’s your comment?” Jennifer is curious about this strange term.
“Well, there’s that. Well, it’s like spreading your thoughts. It’s a promotion technique. Haha.”
It was hard to explain in one sentence, so I told him thoroughly. Well, that’s not so wrong, is it?
Turns out, when I first made a few comments at school, a lot of followers actively helped. It was fun for everyone, and it was a part-time job. Initially, a mission (?), and I remember buying them a few meals separately and giving them a thought education. Oh, but there were so many commenters?
“There’s too much else, but will you skip it in time and take him forward? Now, John Kim, the Chairman of the Johnston Group. ”
After Chris’s introduction, Sheila looks at me and talks.
“Now do you understand why John said it was so crowded? ”
Oh, so these people are here to see me? I still don’t understand. I tilt my head, but I walk up to the top, bracing my shoulders.
As I stand on the ledge and look around, my voice slowly subsides and my attention is focused on me. I am more calm when I am a star or when there are more people.
“I thought I’d acquired a film company, but if anybody heard that just now, they’d think I was in the movie. ”
I opened my mouth with a light joke.
“When I was sitting with you, I had both anxiety and expectations about my future path. I don’t think my feelings at the time are very different from yours.”
I started the rush with a little formal speech and briefly spoke up the advice I needed from my students. I feel the power in my voice as I tighten my lower abdomen and raise my latent strength.
People love heroes and love to hear dramatic success stories. In fact, by the time I graduated, I was already making quite a bit of money, but there was no anxiety. I’m just saying it’s good to hear everyone.
After mixing up a little exaggeration, everyone is listening because their eyes are dazzled. If I said, “When I graduated, I just thought everything would be fine, so I had no anxiety at all. If you say ‘, half of them will leave immediately.
A cheerful and convincing voice lets half eat and enter regardless of the content. After finishing the speech with a little seasoning, thunderous applause burst out. I handed Mike over to Principal Hamilton and stepped down from the platform to return to his seat.
“John, that was so cool. Heh.” Jennifer sobs and smiles, touching my thighs to see if she’s feeling well.
‘Khh. And speaking of which, was it the first time you gave a speech while Jennifer was here? ’
It’s a little funny, but I feel better when Jennifer compliments me. Especially that respectful look. Hehe! One more time?
“John, our proud Rocksville alumni, gave us a great speech. There’s one thing I’m missing. ”
Principal Hamilton pauses and smiles at me. The audience was suddenly silent, wondering what he had to say.
“I don’t know if you know this, but John has made a lot of contributions over the last few years to schools, introducing and working on programs that have led to significant success.”
The principal pauses after a big applause erupts and continues.
“John has asked his graduating students and followers not to struggle with their career choices due to economic reasons, despite their skills and enthusiasm. And that means that we first put out two million dollars in scholarships. In addition, they donated one million dollars separately to the school’s development fund. ”
After donating three million dollars to a little high school, I hear a lot of clapping, and all of a sudden they’re staring at each other side-by-side.
“Three million dollars?”
Jennifer, who was sitting next to me, whispered to me because her eyes were frozen, but the expression was funny. I wanted to make fun of him, but he smiled and smiled because he had so many eyes. I’m a big one these days.
If you want to live in America, you have to make a donation. And the donation will be handled by the company as a ‘expense’, so some of it will be returned.
I’m offering $5 million to Stanford graduating this year, and it’s already $8 million?
Students finished the graduation ceremony by throwing their undergraduate mother into the sky. Then my family and relatives come to celebrate and take pictures.
Me and Jennifer were surrounded by Hamilton and several welcoming teachers, giving greetings, and taking pictures together, but this time we were busy saying hello to the alumni and outsiders.
I shake hands hard with people I don’t know, and now I’m about to leave, and Chris and his followers are all around me. I remember most of them as familiar faces, but I also saw a lot of followers who remember that they had graduated from the “special” activities like me.
When I asked Chris who was leading the group to take a picture with me, he told me that everyone said hello and greetings that I was coming today. In particular, the 10 people I hired to do my job are mostly here because they are good at it.
“Wow, this is a new service. I love it!”
‘Oh, this is amazing. You can’t compare to other places, can you? ’
‘I love it. I’ve done the same thing with MSN travel services, but I think it’s 100 times better. ”
‘After payment, my options were organized and printed so it was convenient ’
Thinking about that, I smiled on my own. If I think about it now, this unfamiliar technique has raised 1,300 daily inquiries in just 3 months, so in a sense, it is the first pupil that made me who I am. By the way, ‘OneClickTrip’ was good for selling to Microsoft. I wish I’d taken that name… It’s a hard name to come up with, to be honest. Haha.
Two weeks after I attended the graduation ceremony, Jennifer and I received our college diploma every week. My parents also came to my graduation ceremony, but I had to rush out of correction with just a picture. It’s because my parents were surprised by the guards around me and the many eyes that were staring at us as they passed by because of me, who had already become famous in school.
Unlike me, who is buried in other people’s eyes, my parents still die sad behind me if they are surrounded by people.
My parents didn’t seem to care, but when they saw the diploma, they secretly liked it and felt rewarded for graduating without giving up.
After running three graduation ceremonies, June came to a halfway point, but unlike me, Jennifer seemed to be empty and had to play for a few days. I guess I just feel so helpless all of a sudden.
Fortunately, there was a design shop and a fitness center that I had made before, so I quickly regained my smile.
