Chapter 87: The Elitist Educational Theory

“Looks like CEO Mo doesn’t know that your daughter, Mo Li has obtained an excellent result in the IMO. In fact, Mo Li’s result is one of the best in the nation.”

Li He’s eyes widened and his head shook uncontrollably, he refused to believe this. It’s not Qiao Qing but Mo Li? How is that possible?

The board members from the best schools at Pearl River looked envious as they congratulated Mo Yi one after another. “Congratulations! Congratulations!”

This was the few time Mo Yi was tongue-tied… He didn’t even know how to answer the reporters. “There, there isn’t any specific method… I’ve always believed in Mo Li and her need for freedom. Erm… Yes, encouragement! This is something her mother and myself have agreed on!”

Looks like I need to care more about this daughter of mine. Perhaps Mo Li’s results have always been good but she refused to answer the paper properly because she has been trying to get our attention.

Li He who stood to the side had his face drawn. He cursed these reporters. His own daughter was in the finals too, but none of them came to interview him.

As Mo Yi handled the reporters better and better, Li He’s face almost turned purple. Then Mo Yi turned to shot a calm look at him. Li He huffed and silently scurried away.

…

Mo Li had truly made a name for herself this time. During this period, her name kept appearing on the internet and television. However, Mo Li personally was not affected by it. She still spent most of her time between school, Prof Tao’s lab, home and acting class. But as the finals approached, something happened.

During one of her classes, Mo Li was summoned by Teacher Sun to the school boardroom. The old crone wore her emotions on her sleeves. Her face was extremely gloomy, Mo Li believed this was a bad portent.

Inside the boardroom, there were many people, even Mo Yi was there. The other important board members were present as well. They all remained standing while 2 men were seated on the couch. They held a document in one hand and sipped tea with the other.

“Mo Li, these are the officers from the organizers of IMO, Qi Yu and Fang Xun, you can call them sirs or teachers.”

Sensing the tension in the air, Mo Li frowned. “Sirs, why have you summoned me? How can I help you?”

Qi Yu took a sip of the tea and picked up a stack of paper from the table. Then he said, “This is your exam result for the past year.” He paused to look at everyone in the room. “A student with such result manage to score so well in the preliminary of IMO, is that possible?”

The years of being in the leadership position imbued a hint of condescension in his voice.

Teacher Sun hurried to explain, “Why… why would you have such suspicion? Even though it’s hard to believe, Miss Mo Li has been improving a lot lately. In fact, she scored so well during the mock exam.”

Qi Yu’s face was cold. “We received a complaint and thus we came to investigate. Yes, I’ve heard about this mock exam too. She scored perfect mark in the mock exam but she also scored 0 in all of her previous tests.”

The other teacher, Fang Xun knocked on the table for emphasis, “From 0 to 100 in a short amount of time, don’t you find that suspicious? A student of her quality won’t be able to achieve something like this.”

When Mo Yi heard that, his face darkened immediately. “What do you mean by that? What kind of quality are you referencing? And you call yourself educators? Every student has to be treated equally!”

Fang Xun knew he had overstepped his boundary so he turned his head away from Mo Yi. Mo Yi was someone that even the organizers of IMO had to give face to.

“Mr. Mo, forgive me but I cannot agree with you.” Qi Yu stood up and countered, “The purpose of IMO is to select the best talents and eliminate the weaker students. We only need and want the best. Our goal is to separate the geniuses from plebeians. And your daughter clearly belongs in the latter category.”

Mo Yi was understandably furious hearing his daughter described like this.

“What kind of differential treatment is this?! I will not allow you to treat our students like this. I’m telling you, every students at our school, including my daughter, should be given equal opportunity, because there is no difference between them.”

Fang Xun’s lips curved in a chilling smile. “But Mr. Mo, you have to admit that there is a natural difference between the elite and the common man.”

“So is that why the two of you are mere officers of the IMO while my father is one of the nation’s pioneers in industrialization, the president of the National Federation of Industry and Commerce as well as the vice president of the International Council of Industry and Commerce? It’s because you’re born inferior than my father?” The person who said this was not the other board members but Mo Li who had been silent.

“How, how could you talk to your teachers like this?”

“Well, I was merely drawing examples from your own theory. You are the very people who should be eliminated from your theoretical perspective, am I wrong?”
