181 The Time Is Right 1
The results were tabulated at 8pm. It went as expected.
Li Chengqian’s team was the champion of this Competition.
Although he had expected this, when he heard this news, Teacher Tian Wenming’s could no longer keep a straight face.
Teacher Tian Wenming’s face was no longer serious like before. He was all smiles and happy. Everyone could feel his joy.
Ding Ling got so emotional that she ignored everyone’s gazes and hugged Li Chengqian in public.
Zhao Peng’s chubby face was also full of smiles.
“Congratulations on obtaining direct admission to Divine Dragon University. Being able to form a team with Li Chengqian is the luckiest thing that has ever happened in your lives.” Tian Wenming was a little envious of Ding Ling and Zhao Peng.
Ding Ling basically didn’t know anything about programming. Zhao Peng’s programming was only at the beginner level.
If it wasn’t for Li Chengqian leading them to participate in the Junior Information Competition this time, they wouldn’t even have been able to pass the preliminary round, not to mention the finals.
The two of them were like mascots in this competition, they didn’t have to lift a finger.
Ding Ling let go of Li Chengqian with a flushed face. Her eyes were filled with gratitude and admiration. “Li Chengqian, thank you. Without you, it would be impossible for me to get into Divine Dragon University with my results.”
“You’ve fulfilled my dream of studying at Divine Dragon University!”
Zhao Peng was also overjoyed. His gaze when he looked at Li Chengqian was filled with gratitude!
With his results, it was absolutely impossible for him to get into Divine Dragon University. It was something that he didn’t even dare to dream about.
He was just an ordinary person.
Fortunately, he joined Li Chengqian’s team. Thanks to Li Chengqian, he obtained the opportunity to study at Divine Dragon University.
“Li Chengqian, thank you so much!”
Then, he patted his chest hard, and said arrogantly. “Li Chengqian, if there’s ever anything I can do for you in the future, let me know. I’d be an ingrate if I even so much as hesitate…”
“Zhao Peng, yeah right, cut that out!” Li Chengqian smiled and shook his head, not letting Zhao Peng continue.
If he were to let this joker continue speaking, he would surely say even more ridiculous things.
But there was one thing that Li Chengqian knew, and that was that Zhao Peng’s gratitude was sincere. This was enough.
As expected, Li Chengqian’s team won first place.
As for Bi Jialiang’s team, they were not so lucky. Their results ranking was out, and they were ranked 57th!
This ranking had broken Tianyi High School’s performance record in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition. Without Li Chengqian’s team, this ranking was worth mentioning.
However, it was useless now.
The top 50 teams would gain direct admission to Divine Dragon University. The rest of the teams wouldn’t.
Therefore, Bi Jialiang’s team did not get a spot to study at Divine Dragon University.
Moreover, with Li Chengqian’s team champion ranking, the 57th ranking didn’t mean anything.
He Hongyan kept his head lowered. His eyes were filled with deep disappointment. He originally thought that he would be able to get into the top 50 this time and obtain direct admission to Divine Dragon University.
However, reality slapped him hard, letting him know that he was not as powerful as he had imagined.
Bi Jialiang was also disappointed. He was extremely envious of Zhao Peng and Ding Ling.
He secretly regretted it. “If I hadn’t organized my own team back then and joined Li Chengqian’s team instead… I would also have direct admission to Divine Dragon University.”
Jian Qingli’s face was contorted with a mix of emotions. She looked like she was crying and laughing at the same time. It was extremely complicated.
Li Chengqian had invited her three times to join the team, but she had rejected him every time.
Moreover, she would say some nasty words every time. She always felt that it was because of this that Li Chengqian gradually distanced himself from her and eventually got together with Ding Ling.
“If I had agreed to Li Chengqian’s request, Zhao Peng wouldn’t have had anything to do with it, and Ding Ling wouldn’t have had anything to do with it!” Thinking of this, Jian Qingli almost cried out loud. She felt pangs of regret, making her want to cry.
“However, the champion is Li Chengqian, my man…” This thought made Jian Qingli feel proud again.
Therefore, among the people present, her emotions were the most complicated.
“Li Chengqian, get yourself ready. The award ceremony will be held at the Great Hall of Divine Dragon University at nine o’clock tomorrow morning. It will be broadcast live on television. You are the champion team. According to the requirements of the previous years, the champion team must give an acceptance speech.”
Tian Wenming also heard that the award ceremony this time was different from previous years.
In previous years, only the top 50 teams of the Junior Informatics Programming Competition participated in the award ceremony.
This time, the Information School has been granted leave of absence for the award ceremony.
All the students and professors of the Information School had to go to the auditorium to listen to Li Chengqian’s acceptance speech.
This was the highest form of accolade!
“There aren’t many opportunities to speak in front of the entire country. This might be the only time in your life. You have to cherish this opportunity.” Tian Wenming’s eyes were filled with undisguised envy.
Li Chengqian nodded, indicating that he understood.
In fact, before Tian Wenming said anything, he had already received a message from Principal Wu.
