Chapter 214 - 217 Casual Speech_1
Zhou Ziqing spoke honestly, "That’s not entirely true. Working abroad does not emphasize on academic qualifications, but rather on ability. Only those who are capable and have opportunities can potentially achieve some success! Of course, it can’t be said that having a high level of education is useless. Foreign universities focus more on the development of ability, so if you have a diploma, you really do stand out in terms of ability! Additionally, in universities and research institutions, one of the more important aspects is that you can meet more people, especially those in your own field, which can be very helpful after graduation!"
"Then your boyfriend must be doing well right?" asked Song Yuyun.
Zhou Ziqing shook her head, "He’s a traditional IT man. He has the professional knowledge, skillset and capability, but he’s not good at handling interpersonal relationships. So, when he entered the industry, he didn’t have any connections and couldn’t sell himself, let alone the software he designed."
"Oh..." Lin Xiangwan nodded, not knowing what to say next.
Zhou Ziqing smiled, "But my boyfriend is definitely a talent, just hasn’t met the right person to recognize his potential. Ah, when this unpolished gem shines, I’ll surely rise with him!"
Song Yuyun laughed, "Sister, aren’t you being too modest? You don’t need anyone, you’re capable yourself. I remember last time you came back to China, you were promoting luxury goods for a company, and you were earning forty to fifty thousand a month!"
"Hehe...." Zhou Ziqing chuckled without saying much, accepting these facts. "That’s all in the past, now I’m not making a penny!"
"Hey, the money you make in a month probably covers what I make in half a year!" said Song Yuyun with envy. "I pant and struggle to earn the money that hardly stretches."
"You see, you were born with a silver spoon, even if you didn’t earn money, your father’s patent money is enough for you to lead a good life. I’m different, I need to support my mom..."
"My dad’s money is my dad’s, I never thought about it." Song Yuyun declared. "And I hope my dad can find another woman to accompany him in his old age, that would be pretty nice!"
