Chapter 4 Examination and Recruitment Principles (2)
Back in the dormitory, Xu Wei was still feeling depressed about their conversation earlier. Women are like this, when they're weak and delicate, they cling to you like a little bird, making you forget yourself in their gentle care; but when they gain power, they become arrogant and overbearing, completely destroying even the last shred of confidence left in your pores.
Regarding the civil service examination, Xu Wei did not reveal a single word to Li Wei. He is currently unemployed and feels oppressed by his girlfriend's strong personality. His father's past experience serves as a warning, and he does not want to repeat the same mistake, so he can only hope that the exam goes smoothly and use it as an opportunity to counterattack against feminism. Before this, in order to save face, he had no choice but to adopt the method of secretly dating like a celebrity underground.
Xu Wei was not fighting alone, and his sworn brother Li Zhiyuan, who lived in the same dormitory, also wanted to join the civil service team. The two were originally high school classmates, and they became university classmates again, coincidentally living in the same dorm room, which was a great fate. Now that they had a common goal to strive for, their revolutionary friendship deepened, and they went together to Hailing Book City to buy books that would help them achieve their common ideals. When they arrived at the book city, the two of them realized that the sea of officialdom was boundless - the civil service examination books occupied an entire classroom. They had no choice but to adopt the attitude towards traditional culture in their political textbooks, "take its essence and discard its dross". After spending an afternoon, each of them chose two essential books.
Xu Wei bought a book "Administrative Ability Test and Essay Questions and Detailed Explanations" and a mock test. Li Zhiyuan also bought the same books, but from different publishers, so that after finishing his own books, he can exchange them to read again, in line with economic principles.
Li Zhiyuan started reviewing that night, but after half a day, he was still in the dark and couldn't get a grasp of it. He thought to himself that he didn't have the talent for self-study, so he decided to attend a civil service training class.
The civil service examination has become a trend, and various training classes have emerged one after another. They have developed to the point where they are as ubiquitous as lottery ticket sales outlets. In order to attract business, these training classes have come up with all sorts of gimmicks and advertisements; recruitment notices often appear unexpectedly in places you wouldn't normally think of, alongside ads for treating sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea.
Xu Wei read a notice while using the restroom, which started with "Heavenly oath, earthly promise: guaranteed pass, nationwide warranty, no interview required, full refund". It then listed its strong faculty team, all of whom were supposedly renowned professors, experts and scholars that Xu had never heard of. The notice also included prices for various training programs, claiming they were "surprise prices", and promising additional discounts for those who brought the flyer to sign up. At the end, it attached two thank-you letters from students who had successfully passed their exams, supposedly to demonstrate its authenticity.
The first letter is a modern Fan Jin's writing, which fully showcases his twists and turns of fate, the hardships of life, and it touches people deeply.
I'm 33 years old now. I have taken part in countless civil servant exams and attended numerous civil servant training classes, but ended up failing every time.
Countless failures brought me an absolutely unbearable insult. I fell down here, and I have to stand up from here. A year ago, I started preparing for this year's national examination. And this time, I chose a **training school, signed up for the administrative ability test, and the topic selection class for the argumentation essay.
As a result, I completed the system review, from knowledge points to answering skills to previous years' real questions and then to simulated training. This time in the national exam, I was confident.
When I walked out of the written test venue, I was thoroughly excited. The argumentation topic was exactly the 11th hot spot of Point Topic Class's argumentation. I used all the content summarized by Chapter Teacher, and many questions in the administrative ability test were also explained in Point Topic Class. I carefully reviewed every question updated daily in the knowledge base, and a test paper turned out to be so familiar.
This time, my exam results were very good, and I scored 146 points in the written test. Here, I really want to thank Teacher Zhang. For several months, listening to your classes every day, your seriousness and dedication moved me, and also made me understand how important a good teacher is to students. Thank you so much to you and all the teachers who have worked hard for this! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!
Another thank-you letter was written by a freshly graduated university student, with content close to life and elegant language. Compared to the late maturity of his seniors, this classmate can be said to have achieved success at a young age:
