My childhood sweetheart, who was reborn with me, ended up as a loser.

Chapter 54 The First Step to Fame

Principal Song was quite reliable; he had prepared a special car for the leaders to use on business trips downstairs in the residential area, and the five of them sat down comfortably.

After getting into the car, Yao Jinping became anxious about the upcoming interview, worried that if she didn't perform well, she would let her son down.

"Jingjing, what should we say during the interview later? We have no experience with this."

Lin Jing thought to herself, what experience could she possibly have? She had only gotten a few shots on CCTV and the provincial TV station that day thanks to Xiao Fan.

However, being a teacher, she could still speak eloquently: "Ah Ping, just say that's how Xiao Fan is at home, just tell the truth."

"However, don't tell reporters about Xiao Fan's embarrassing childhood stories. It's best not to tell anyone. Also, if a reporter asks a particularly unfriendly question, you can choose not to answer it."

"You can choose not to answer reporters' questions?" Yao Jinping and Xu Aiguo both said they had learned something new.

"Of course, just say you refuse to answer this question, then shut up and smile." Lin Jing's mini-lesson began.

"What if reporters ask us about that case from two years ago? Xiao Fan mentioned it on TV yesterday," Yao Jinping said worriedly.

"Let's be honest, at first we didn't know the law. We thought it was their fault for not watching the child properly and spilling the porridge. We were already being lenient by not asking them for compensation, and we even paid for the medical expenses. How dare they turn around and ask us for money?"

"After the legal case came down, it turned out that illegally occupying the road for business was the main responsibility. We quickly raised 300,000 yuan to compensate the other party. Then, Ah Ping, you should appeal to everyone to study the law carefully and not to illegally occupy the road for business."

"Jingjing, say it again, there are some parts I didn't remember."

"that is......"

Lin Jing repeated what she had just said, her face beaming with confidence.

Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance. Indeed, encouraging their godmother to be career-minded was an absolutely correct thing to do.

...

After the car drove into the Experimental Primary School, Song Youcai personally came over to open the door for them, showering Yao Jinping and Xu Aiguo with compliments all the way, making his parents dizzy with flattery.

Although the students had already done their own makeup at home, the school still hired a professional makeup artist to do Xu Aiguo's, Yao Jinping's, and Lin Jing's makeup.

Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao also got their hair done simply. As for makeup, the kids didn't need it, since it wasn't a Children's Day performance.

More than 20 media reporters came today. Xu Qingfan guessed that at least half of them were hired by the school. Our alma mater is really too powerful.

Forget about eggs, no need to supplement them!

The school held a simple press conference in the auditorium. After Xu Qingfan sat down in the center, the flashes from the cameras were so bright that he couldn't open his eyes.

"I'd like to ask Xu Qingfan, you said on TV yesterday that you got the idea to write poetry because you wanted to buy an air conditioner. So when did you discover that you have a talent for writing poetry?"

This is a reporter from the provincial TV station; no wonder the questions they asked were so friendly.

"Hello, reporter. My godmother loves reading and often takes us to bookstores to buy books. Many books in bookstores can be read directly, and because of this, I have seen many collections of poems by various authors."

"Many poems really impressed me, but some made me think, 'Oh, so pressing the enter key is poetry? I could do that too!'"

"Then I went for it, and it turned out I was really good."

"Hahaha!" A burst of laughter rang out in the hall.

Xu Qingfan was probably the first to mention the "pressing the Enter key" meme online, and it's no surprise that the "Enter key" meme will become a huge hit on the internet after this report airs.

"I'm a reporter from Yangcheng Evening News. I'd like to interview Ms. Lin Jing. Hello, Ms. Lin. We've all witnessed Xu Qingfan's excellence. I received news that your daughter, Xia Xiaoxiao, participated in the Huasai Cup senior group competition last week and won first place!"

"Do you have any insights about education that you'd like to share?"

After the flashbulbs finished, Lin Jing leaned over and said into the microphone, "Whether you believe it or not, Xiao Fan and Xiao Xiao were able to achieve such outstanding results because they are naturally talented. My role in this was negligible."

"However, I do have some thoughts on education that I'd like to share with everyone."

"If your child is in elementary school or younger, there are three things you absolutely must do. The first is to ensure your child gets enough sleep. This is really, really, really important!"

"Children who lack sleep become extremely irritable and short-tempered, have poor self-control, weak immunity, hindered physical development, and find it difficult to achieve the desired results in anything they do."

"In all my years of teaching, I have often encountered students who are slow to learn. What should take an hour to complete might take them three hours or even longer."

"Whenever I find a child like this, after finding out the reason, I will take the initiative to communicate with other teachers and parents to reduce his/her homework and allow him/her to get enough sleep."

"If your child is in a similar situation, I hope you will take my words to heart. Learning is a marathon; temporary wins or losses are not important. Only a healthy body can lead you to the finish line!"

The second point is...

Lin Jing was indeed very knowledgeable, and she talked eloquently for more than ten minutes.

The reporters listened attentively. First, what she said sounded reasonable, and second, her track record was verifiable.

Xu Qingfan could already imagine tomorrow's newspaper headline: "Do these three things to help your child win the long race of learning!"

...

The morning's interviews quickly came to an end.

Most of the questions were directed at Xu Qingfan and Lin Jing, which they handled with ease.

As expected, the interview with Xu Aiguo and Yao Jinping mentioned the story of "Sun Xiaochuan accidentally getting into millet porridge". However, since it was an open-book exam, the parents managed to get through it, albeit with some stumbles.

Xia Xiaoxiao was the only one who remained uninvolved throughout. One reporter asked her, "Little girl, you're so good at math, what's your study method?"

Xia Xiaoxiao: "No, I'll learn it in one look."

And then no one interviewed her anymore.

"It's getting late, this is the last question," Song Youcai, the host, said, picking up the microphone.

"I'm a reporter from Tianya Portal. I'd like to ask the young poet Xu Qingfan a question. Many netizens on our website love your poems, but many of them aren't as talented as you. Is there anything you'd like to say to them?"

"Hmm... Unlike math, Chinese can be improved through constant repetition and accumulation over time."

"What I want to tell them is that if you don't have talent, keep repeating it; if you're not a genius, take it one step at a time. Those seemingly insignificant days will one day make you suddenly see the meaning of perseverance."

"Thanks."

Xu Qingfan sat down again, and thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
