Marvel’s Princess Chapter 234: Exchange student
With the help of Stanford alumni and for the future layout of Chanel, Bella fully acquired an Italian women's shoe brand called Giuseppe Zanotti.
This brand specializing in women's shoes was founded in 2000 and is known for its **** and wild shoes.
Currently there are two stores, one in Milan and one in Florence.
The designer wanted more women to wear Giuseppe Zanotti's shoes and wanted to expand the store and expand her influence. Bella had money to invest, and the two parties hit it off.
For 13 million euros, she completely took possession of the brand.
Later, he invested 3.5 million euros in Koenigsegg, increasing his stake in the Swedish sports car manufacturer to 12%.
Leaving some money for daily expenses, she returned to ordinary student life.
......
The spring semester of Stanford's second academic year had just begun, and Bella got some unexpected news from the student union.
The school intends to launch an exchange student program with the University of Tokyo in Japan.
The University of Tokyo also has four faculties of science, law, literature and medicine. Stanford plans to send a group of undergraduates and graduate students to study there. The expenses during the study period will be borne by the other party. Yes, the tuition fees of both sides will be borne by the other party.
Bella is a little moved. A lot of knowledge from the East is also very useful for her spells. Now she has been unable to develop a fourth-level spell. She feels that her accumulation is not enough and she should master more knowledge. Tokyo College is a good choice.
"Are you going?" she asked her friends.
"I don't speak Japanese." This was Heather's answer.
"Not going." It was Barbara who said succinctly.
Sam also said that his studies were very heavy. In order to get into law school, he almost had his head hurt. How could he have time to go to Japan? In his opinion, what could he learn from going to Japan? Going to Japan is just for fun.
Bella's Japanese is very good. She has no problem listening, speaking, reading and writing. She doesn't need to review, she can get high scores by taking the N1 exam directly.
Distance is no longer a problem. It is closer from Stanford to Tokyo than from Stanford to Europe.
She signed up without saying anything. There was no harm in going out for a walk, since she didn’t have to pay for it herself.
The teacher in charge of exchange students at the University of Tokyo was extremely welcoming to her application. The name of a best-selling author is very useful, especially after knowing through conversation that she is very proficient in Japanese, let alone her diligence.
Japan requires a lot of things from Asian international students, such as Japanese language test scores, employment certificates of financial guarantors, and tax certificates of eight generations of ancestors. They ask you to hand it over, and then review it carefully, for fear that you will cheat them. of loopholes.
There are also requirements for international students in European and American circles, but in actual practice, they pretend they don’t exist.
There are very few people in the United States who can speak Japanese, let alone students. Even though many Americans go to Japan to work, they still speak English every day. They think English is the world's language. If they can't speak it, they still feel weird. They are all 21 Century, why can’t you even speak English?
Pride is one thing, and difficulty in learning is also another.
Americans learn Japanese just like Japanese learn English. Both sides find it super difficult to learn.
In the end, there is no way, the big fist makes sense, the only way is for the Japanese to learn English hard, and it is so miserable...
At this time, the middle-aged female teacher in charge of exchange students welcomed Bella. All kinds of review procedures did not exist. She passed directly. If she had no rights, she would have given her a scholarship on the spot. Woolen cloth.
Students at Stanford are not enthusiastic about the University of Tokyo. After all, the ranking of the university is so far behind. There is no need to go from high places to low places to study, even if you pay money to go there.
The language environment is different, the living habits are also different, and there are obstacles in all aspects.
The plan was to recruit 100 exchange students, but in the end, despite all the trouble, we were unable to recruit 70 students.
Instead of leaving with the rest of the group, Bella took the plane alone and went to Hawaii for two days, then to Japan, where she would study for two semesters at Stanford and one semester in Japan. That’s half a year.
Getting on the plane to Tokyo, Bella quickly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
......
Japan, Shikoku Island, Kochi Prefecture.
On an unknown seaside, there is an old castle left over from the Warring States Period.
The fifth-floor castle tower faces the sea in the distance. When you open the door, you can seem to hear the sound of waves hitting the rocks.
The place is heavily guarded, and a large number of red-clad ninjas are patrolling openly or covertly. They do not allow an idle person to disturb Wuzhi's meeting.
The Five Fingers are five old people who escaped from the Holy Land of Kunlun four hundred years ago and came to Japan. They gathered the Snakeroot clan and a large number of ninjas, thieves and assassins who had lost their livelihood during the Warring States Period, and established a group called Hand. organization of the meeting.
The five of them all have advanced martial arts from Kunlun to extend their lives, but four hundred years is still too long. Four of them really couldn't stand their aging bodies, so they used secret techniques and abandoned their original bodies. Seize a new body.
Looking at appearance alone, among the five fingers of the Hand today there are white people, black people, and Asians.
The four of them are all young, but the one sitting on the side is very old, as old as a piece of wood.
"Gao, you are so stubborn, why don't you want a young body? Look at me? How strong?" The black man showed off his biceps.
The gray-haired old woman glanced at him, her triangular eyes full of contempt. This idiot, occupying the body of a black man, is now about to be blackened.
She spoke slowly: "I just don't want our four hundred years of hard work to go to waste."
A blond white woman smiled and said: "Gao, are you still thinking about Yinglong? We lured her out of Kunlun, and that guy already hates us. If I remember correctly, her arm is still yours Interrupted, do you think she will still give you the power of immortality?"
"Open your muddy old eyes and take a look. Science is the trend of the future. Immortality? Qi? They are all outdated things, hehehe!"
Mrs. Gao still drank tea calmly: "I have a way to make her give me her immortal power."
The black man smiled contemptuously: "It's been four hundred years since Yinglong sealed that secret realm, right? It's really powerful to be independent of time. It may still be the Warring States Period there, and you tried so hard to find the gap in space. I heard that you What's the use of throwing two groups of people into death? You are really stupid!"
The remaining people thought that Mrs. Gao's idea was too wishful thinking, but she mobilized her direct subordinates, and they had no right to interfere.
Am I stupid? Mrs. Gao lowered her head slightly and carefully observed the dancing tea leaves in the tea cup. She wanted Sakura-ryu, and she also wanted Heikong, the existence that the Hand had been waiting for for many years, the being known as Shura!
