For the residents of Hampshire, Southampton, and 86 Eastleigh Road, July 29 is obviously not an ordinary day.

The morning bell had just struck seven, and young Jon Hart had already got up from the bed.

Throwing a copy of Nature magazine aside, he ran out of the room and toward the kitchen.

"Mom, have you got a letter?"

Mrs. Judy Hart is the hostess of 86 Eastleigh Road, a petite blond woman who is even slightly taller than her 11-year-old son.

"I'm sorry, honey, it doesn't seem to be here yet." She was in the kitchen frying fries, and smiled back at Jon. "Your father is waiting at the door."

Jon walked into the yard, and sure enough, Mr. Eric Hart was pacing the door.

"Eric, there's no need to be so nervous!" Jon whispered.

"Nervous? I'm not nervous at all!" Mr. Hart glanced at his son and pretended to be calm: "Those old professors at Windsor Palace should be honored that Eaton has such an excellent freshman as you!"

But while speaking, his feet have been frequently stamping the floor.

Eric Hart is a well-known local lawyer, and his wife Judy is an excellent costume designer. Both husband and wife are leaders in their respective fields, with a combined annual income of nearly 200,000 pounds. Even in Southampton, a port city with a high level of consumption, a family of three can live a very decent life.

But what makes them more proud is their child Jon. In the eyes of Eric and Judy, there is no better kid in the world than Jon.

Jon has been a very sensible child since he was a child... When other people's children were crying, he had already begun to earnestly learn to speak with his parents; when other people's children were clamoring for all kinds of toys, he Have started to read a large number of somewhat obscure scientific journals.

At the age of five, in a street interview, he made an impromptu speech on the theme "The Falklands (Malvinas) have been an inseparable part of Great Britain since ancient times", which went viral and won Greatly complimented.

In the All England SATs? (National Primary School Final Examination) a month ago, Jon scored full marks on all six papers, the best results in Hampshire's nearly century-old history.

...

Jon Hart, he is a traveler.

In his previous life, he was a doctoral student in a second-rate 211 Department of Biology in China. His research direction was microbiology and immunity. After an accidental car accident and loss of consciousness, he discovered that he had actually traveled to a middle-class British in the 1980s. family, turned into a baby.

Jon, who has read books for more than 20 years in his previous life, doesn't know lottery numbers, and he doesn't know anything about finance... In fact, at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the classes in developed capitalist countries were basically solidified, and the systems were quite similar. Perfect; relying on a little past life memory, it is not realistic to want to make a fortune through opportunistic means.

There is no golden finger, but there seems to be a little bit of time-travel benefits: after the time-travel, his memory is very good, almost to the point of being unforgettable.

Therefore, Jon decided to follow the line of his previous life, study hard, work hard in scientific research, and strive for the socialist modernization construction for the rest of his life in the future!

As early as the age of five, he made detailed plans for the development of the next three decades.

Since childhood, he has shown a little "prodigy" characteristics, and achieved good results in the national SATs? (National Primary School Final Examination), and applied to enter top secondary schools such as St. Paul, Magdalen and Eton.

Then, with the help of an excellent secondary school platform, and perform well in the A-Level examination (UK college entrance examination), enter the microbiology department of Oxford or Cambridge.

With the help of the outstanding memory in this life, Jon can clearly remember the research data and research results decades later in the previous life, which can help him avoid many detours on the road of scientific research.

At the university level, Jon will begin to show his "talent" in scientific research, conduct experiments to reveal the activation and inhibition mechanism of the innate immune mechanism, and publish related papers. This shocking paper, during the period around the millennium, It will definitely make a big splash in the microbiology world, and Jon will also take this opportunity to meet big names like John Robert Vane, John E. Sulston, Niels Kaj Jerne (both Oxford and Cambridge Nobel Laureates in Physiology and Medicine).

After he has a certain reputation, he will ask for help from big cows, and he will go to Harvard or MIT to study for graduate school a year or two before graduating from college.

For the subject of master's research, Jon will choose to isolate and cultivate a SARS virus strain in the early stage of the outbreak of SARS in China, reveal the pathogenic mechanism of the SARS virus, and try to develop related subunit vaccines as soon as possible.

During his Ph.D. study, he will shift the target to cancer, research methods of negative immune regulation to treat cancer...

Before the doctoral student graduates, it is no surprise that he can publish in the world's most authoritative journals such as Nature ("Nature"), Lancet ("Lancet"), CA-CancerJClin ("Clinical Cancer Journal") 3-5 A fairly classic paper.

With such outstanding achievements, he can also become a professor at Harvard or MIT quite easily after his doctoral degree.

After that, he will continue to engage in research in these areas. If all scientific research progresses smoothly, he will probably win the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine between 2015 and 2020 for his contributions to various aspects of microbiology and immunity.

After becoming famous, he can find an opportunity to go to China, become a visiting professor at Tsinghua University or Peking University, become a Chinese national, and start to fight for the socialist modernization for life!

...

It's a great idea, but you have to face reality first.

He first has to apply for admission to a top middle school in the UK... To be fair, Eton College is not the best choice. After all, this is a traditional aristocratic middle school. Extremely demanding.

However, this is the opinion of his father Eric. In Eric's opinion, entering an aristocratic middle school such as Eton College can help Jon meet many future bigwigs and accumulate a lot of contacts in advance.

Honestly, Eric was right.

If memory is correct, in the next few years, Prince William and Prince Harry (both sons of Prince Charles and Princess Diana) will enter Eton College one after another, and William, the immediate heir to the royal family, should be in the same class as Jon. student.

Classmates with the future King of England? It seems to be an interesting thing.

But think about it, it is also a lifetime series; you must know that Prince William's grandmother still maintained a strong vitality when Jon passed through in the previous life, but she was a character comparable to a great man!

Jon was pondering boredly when he suddenly heard a click in the mailbox outside the door.

"Oh...God...they're here!" Eric stammered as his face paled.

"I'll get the letter!"

Jon opened the yard door, three golden male lions were painted on the mailbox, and a dead brown bear was stepping under his feet... This was posted by Eric more than half a year ago to celebrate a big event.

There was also a tabby cat, standing beside the mailbox, staring intently at the gate of 86 Eastleigh Road.

"Go away!" Jon kicked the feral cat away and took a stack of letters from the mailbox.

While looking at the letter, he returned home, and Eric and Judy both hurried around.

The first letter was a gas bill.

The second is a postcard from Aunt Arya to Judy.

The third was for him, and Jon slowly tore open the envelope:

"Dear Mr Hart:

It is my pleasure to inform you that after our discussions, it has been agreed that you have sufficient talent and qualifications to study at Eton as one of the 247 new students in Eton in 1992.

sincerely yours.

Tony Rideau (Principal of Eton College)"

"Oh, God!" Jon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at this time.

"How is it?" Eric and Judy asked hastily.

"I was accepted!" He smiled and handed the letter over.

Eric and Judy took the letter, and after reading it carefully, the expressions on their faces changed from apprehension, to surprise, and finally to ecstasy.

"Jon... darling, I knew you could do it!" Judy hugged her son and gave him a few hard kisses on the face.

"I'll tell all my colleagues how good my son is..." Eric roared with joy in the yard.

After that, the couple kissed passionately in the yard without any scruples.

I have to say that it is a great honor for a non-noble-born student to be invited by a prestigious school like Eton.

Especially in the atmosphere of Ying's "happy education".

He has been in primary school for six years in this life, and none of Jon's teachers have asked him about his studies... All the teachers care about is: "Did you have a good time at school?"

Basically all the students grew up in this "happy" atmosphere.

There are only a few exceptions.

For example, a girl named Susan in the same grade, her father was an extremely wealthy banker in Southampton. Every day after school at three o'clock in the afternoon, when other students were happily engaged in extracurricular activities, Susan would reluctantly be picked up by her father's Rolls-Royce for the first time.

In Susan's words, every day she was forced by her father to learn piano and dance; her father also hired three tutors, forcing her to study a lot of homework and assign unfinished homework.

The classmates are very sympathetic to Susan's experience...

News came a week ago that 11-year-old Susan scored more than 95 on every SATs? test and was admitted to St Paul's Women's College in London as soon as possible.

Those students who sympathized with Susan had to go to the local public high school in Southampton to continue to enjoy their "happy education".

Ying's education pays attention to "happy education" in teaching, but it shows no mercy when it is eliminated.

The SATs? Test (National Primary School Final Test) is conducted for 11-year-old primary school graduates, and the pass rate in general years is only 30%-50%. The test scores and recommendation letters determine which level of middle school 11-year-old primary school graduates go to, and even their future destiny.

For secondary schools, the gap between elite schools and ordinary schools is very large...

Well-known universities such as Cambridge, Oxford, etc., will not recognize the transcripts of ordinary public high schools at all, and they will not even glance at the recommendation letters written by the principals of ordinary public high schools. No matter how good your grades are, it is difficult to get their recognition; and Eton College , St. Paul's Women's College and other prestigious schools, graduates as long as the A-Level test scores are not too bad, basically close to half of the easy entry into Cambridge Oxford, the rest of the rhythm of studying abroad...

Watching his parents celebrate in ecstasy, a smile appeared on Jon's face.

The initial goal of planning the route has been achieved, and now I have basically stepped into Cambridge Oxford with one foot...

In his mind, he even began to imagine the scene of himself celebrating the success of the experiment in the laboratory in the future, the scene of publishing papers in his core journals, and even the scene of himself on the Nobel Prize podium...

The only regret is probably that Eton College is a boys' school; in the next seven years, it will be difficult for me to meet girls of the same age.

While thinking wildly, Jon glanced at the last letter.

Hampshire, Southampton, 86 Eastleigh Road, Mr Jon Hart, pacing the yard.

The envelope was made of heavy parchment, and the address was written in emerald green ink. No postage stamps.

Jon turned the envelope over with trembling hands, and saw a wax seal, a coat of arms, a lion, an eagle, a badger, and a snake around the capital "H".

"Oh my day!" Jon couldn't help scolding in Chinese.

At this moment, the bottom of his heart was like a thousand grass and mud horses galloping past.
