Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

When Yang Rui copied the second volume of New Concept English, students from other schools began to appear outside the gate of Xibao Middle School. Students, blocking students entering and leaving the school, demanded a price increase to buy mimeographed New Concept English.

The first volume of New Concept English has 300 pages. Although Yang Rui omitted the graphic exercises and so on, the text still exceeds 160 pages. Since the mimeograph can only be printed on one side, the cost of the first volume of New Concept English, which consumes so much paper, has reached 1 yuan, and not every student can afford it. When the price was increased to 1.50 cents, many students gritted their teeth. It was sold.

Wang Guohua told Yang Rui the news immediately, and asked, "Should we print New Concept English and sell it for 1.5 yuan, so we can get half of the profit."

Yang Rui didn't answer, but scratched his head and said, "The ones released now are all the first volumes of New Concept English. Is there anyone else to copy this?"

He hasn't finished copying the second volume yet.

The first volume of New Concept English is full of short sentences, at best the level of simple conversations and pictures. One person asked "Where is Henry?" and the other replied "Maybe in the room, I don't know."

This kind of English level will be reserved for future generations, not to mention junior high school students, and better elementary schools will be taught before graduation. In Yang Rui's eyes, the essence of New Concept English should be in the second and third volumes, especially for students who are preparing for the college entrance examination, the third volume is the most valuable.

As for the first volume, Yang Rui just wants everyone to get acquainted with the teaching method of New Concept English. For example, it’s not the era when you walk into a bookstore casually and you can see a room full of teaching materials. Many students have never even seen multiple-choice questions. If you don’t give them a step-by-step process, they will crash if they fail.

Wang Guohua didn't understand Yang Rui's question, and said, "This new concept of English, it's good to just listen to others before, but we have never seen it here. After you took it out, I also think it's very good. Why don't you copy it?" ?”

"There are four volumes of New Concept English, you know? I wrote the first volume on the cover." Yang Rui explained.

"I know." Wang Guohua nodded, then looked at Yang Rui with puzzled eyes.

Yang Rui asked again: "Don't you think it's too simple?"

"Oh, there is a point in the front, and the sentence in the back is a little longer." Wang Guohua said unconfidently, and asked, "Did I make a mistake somewhere?"

"That's right, that's right, as long as it suits you." Yang Rui patted Wang Guohua on the shoulder,

Secretly said: It seems that I made a mistake. Wang Guohua's English is about 30 points, which is the average level in the furnace class. In other classes, those who scored more than a dozen or a few points in the English test are indeed suitable for New Concept English One.

In fact, Yang Rui still overestimated the English proficiency of the current students. Aside from that, the English education of later generations started from elementary school, but the English education of Wang Guohua and others only started around 80 years ago, and there was no suitable teacher, so they could only read English words with pinyin.

Up to now, Wang Guohua has only studied English for two years in total, and most of the time he is still herding sheep. His level is weaker than that of the second-year junior high school students in later generations. , it's not that his level can be that high.

The English proficiency of the school is low, and the English proficiency of the society is even lower. For example, the very popular customs post in the civil service examination. In the employment examination in the 1980s, some questions such as "write 26 English letters" were often given. Even so, There were still many people who couldn't answer and cursed angrily: I am Chinese, why should I learn English!

Realizing that the situation had changed, Yang Rui's thinking also changed. He thought for a while and said, "You should go down the mountain this afternoon and find my cousin Duan Hang in the county town."

"Looking for the captain of the criminal police?" Wang Guohua was still a little scared when he talked about the police.

"Didn't you say that you want to print New Concept English? I originally thought of printing the third volume. Since the first volume is suitable, I will print it now."

"Then what do you want him to do?"

"Did you forget that Mr. Yan found a printing factory before? I asked my cousin to inquire about the situation before. Now you go down the mountain and tell him that we want to use the printing factory to print books and let him think of a way." It is a state-owned unit, so if someone you don't know wants to print a publication, you need a letter of introduction. For some reason, Yan Laosi found a suitable printing factory that could secretly print test papers for him. This kind of resource is very rare, so Yang Rui hurriedly asked his parents to get rid of him without hesitation.

It can be said that the printing factory was the key factor in Yan Laosi's downfall.

However, just because people are willing to print the test papers for Yan Laosi does not mean that they are willing to print for others. Therefore, Yang Rui asked his cousin to inquire more. Even if there is no result now, he still has some clues.

Wang Guohua said a little timidly: "I heard that the printing factory is very expensive. What if we ask them to print books and they can't sell them?"

"The mimeographed teaching materials can be sold, but can the printed ones be sold?"

"That's different. Mimeographing is how much we want to print, how fast the printing factory's machines are..."

"It's cheap because it's fast. We can mimeograph thousands of sheets of paper a day, use it to publish less than 100 books, and have no test papers to make money. But if we switch to printed printing, we can print as much as we sell." Yang Rui said for a while, Seeing Wang Guohua's unnatural expression, he asked, "You still don't think much about it?"

"I just think it's too expensive. Since it's a factory, it has to print thousands of copies at a time. That's not a few thousand dollars. Look at our school, there are not a hundred people who can spend one dollar to buy books, plus Students in the county and the surrounding towns can’t afford a thousand copies. In addition, many students would rather copy books than buy books, and the price of more than one book is still quite expensive.” Wang Guohua scratched his head and said a series, and then Hehe laughed twice, and said: "If you are optimistic, I agree, but I think you should be more cautious."

Yang Rui was slightly surprised. He did not expect that Wang Guohua was so sensitive to cost and price.

Wang Guohua is like this, presumably other members of the Ruixue group will have similar thoughts.

Moreover, other members of the Ruixue team probably wouldn't support him like Wang Guohua did.

Yang Rui pondered for a moment, then simply said: "The printing is done with the funds of the Ruixue Group, since you don't like it, let's have a discussion."

"How to discuss?"

"Convene all the members of the Ruixue team and the reserve team to discuss and vote on whether to print."

Wang Guohua was surprised: "Then what if the vote is not to be printed?"

It doesn't matter if you don't have a vote. After you have a vote, failure to vote will greatly reduce your reputation.

"If you don't print, don't print. I listen to everyone. Just in time, we can also improve the internal mechanism of the Ruixue Group." Yang Rui wanted to take this opportunity to clean up the Ruixue Group. After all, the current situation in the group is going smoothly, and no one will come up with any strange tricks. However, as the age of the group members increases and the accumulation of the sharp learning group increases, there will inevitably be voices of opposition. Rather than passively deal with it at that time, it is better to come first A rehearsal.

Yang Rui himself is very optimistic about New Concept English. This is not a matter of vision, but a matter of historical proof.

However, the greater the printing quantity of a printing factory, the lower the cost. Although Yang Rui hopes to print as many as possible, other people in the Ruixue team may not necessarily think so.

Speaking of which, the current Ruixue group can accumulate 1,000 yuan in half a month, which is more than the office expenses of Xibao Middle School. It is not surprising that some members of the group have the mentality of misers.

This is determined by different life experiences and backgrounds.

Wang Guohua bowed his head and thought for a while, but said: "It's not fair. Even if there is a vote, it should be voted by the team members. Reserve team members are not team members and should not participate in the vote."

The current official team members are only Wang Guohua, Cao Baoming, Huang Ren, and Su Yi, and Liu Shan is still in reserve. If voting is based on the team members, any resolution made by Yang Rui will be passed.

Yang Rui had his own purpose, so he shook his head firmly, and said righteously: "I didn't specify the voting method in the group before, but I just hoped to discuss with you. After all, the Ruixue group is your sharpxue group and should listen to everyone's opinions. Opinions. This time, it is better to invite the reserve team members to participate together, and the active members of the group should also invite them to attend."

Wang Guohua looked into Yang Rui's eyes and said, "No matter what others do, I think it's your decision."

"Even if I have to make decisions in the future, everyone must vote to agree." Yang Rui said meaningfully. You are reading, if any!
