American Big Landlord

v1 Chapter 474: fraternity

This American politician is really very professional. Not only is he able to get an Oscar for his acting skills when he meets each other, he can also get the best dubbing even if he is making a phone call.

"Hey, Zhou, my friend, congratulations on your good results!"

Jessie Chou was playing a game and received a call from the fourth politician. I can’t help but double my eyes, "Your sister, are these politicians very empty? As for this time, they all choose to call!"

Inwardly vomiting, but he still told this Senator Jack what he had just dealt with the other people. What he said was very warm, and he complained that the hot water gave people the feeling of being the center, and he still enjoyed it very much.

With the effort of this day, Zhou Jiexi answered several phone calls, and his current Facebook account and Twitter account, the number of fans has also increased a lot because of a few news.

In addition, the kid Justin Bieber even sent him a message specifically to congratulate him on getting admitted to the ideal school. It also included a photo of the two of them, which was immediately handsome and full of exoticism that made the Americans feel exotic, and it made those female fans who like Bieber excited.

"So handsome! He really looks like a man with great temperament!" A fan retweeted the comment.

"Two people look like this Jessie, so I feel that he is more handsome, my God, my male **** is Justin!!!"

A bunch of idiots also made Jessie a little excited, but after seeing a few pictures of idiots, some of the expectations in Jessie Chou's heart seemed to burst, because there are really not many beauties!

Fortunately, there are a high number of people to look forward to. After seeing a few more photos of people, Zhou Jiexi has recovered a little bit.

Then he started to go to school in Stanford formally, first arranged some chores, and then it was elective subjects and accumulating credits!

In general, his days at Stanford were quite comfortable. It has been a few months since school started. At this point in time, Jessie Chou came, and there were not many transfers. It is even rarer for transfer students who are like him!

In the dormitory allocated by the school, Zhou Jiexi did not plan to live in it. The first thing he considered was the villas of the various brotherhoods. That place is obviously better than the dormitory in the school? There are a lot of places, and in terms of organizing activities and having fun, it is even more incomparable!

Recently, he has become a well-known role at Stanford, and one or two people who come out of the school always know him. Among them, there are many people who want to get some investment from him and get close to him. After all, besides being a student, he is also a billionaire, and most importantly, he is also an angel investor.

There is a sentence behind him in the investment company that William is managing. Although he did not invest in any major projects, he has made a lot of small investments during this period. The time is short and there is no big result, but hundreds of thousands. Wan made a lot of small investments.

A lot of money was spent on software and some mobile applications. Some of them have become popular on mobile platforms. After some operations, the founder sells the company and Jessie Chou’s company can make money. A lot of money.

In school, even though Jessie Chou felt that he should do more learning, he couldn't treat himself badly! A good billionaire allows him to study seriously?

When Jessie Chou was going to Stanford, he had already told the circle of friends. In the circle, people who really want to graduate from Stanford, and their brothers and sisters are studying at Stanford.

Several of them belong to the fraternity in the school. Zhou Jiexi joined this fraternity called "Holy Land" very popularly. This is a fraternity organization that has been in Stanford for more than 50 years, although it is not as good as Some brotherhoods with a long history of a century or a few decades.

But he also has almost half of Stanford's history. The Holy Land Brotherhood was originally a fraternity composed of several excluded immigrant descendants. It advocated the ethnic diversity of its members. Two of the original co-founders were Chinese, and the others included European whites, African Americans, Asians, etc.

This fraternity is considered one of the more famous in Stanford. Although the Stanford student population is very diverse, 41% of them are white and a large number of foreign students from other countries.

But Stanford still has a very common phenomenon of racial autism. They admire racial-themed dormitories, and they don't want to solve this problem. The problem of isolation between rows of white houses and black apartments has become increasingly complicated.

When Jessie Chou watched it at the time, she discovered that the reality is still quite different from the university in American movies. At least the racial conflicts in the university in the movie will definitely not come out like this.

The Holy Land is a multi-ethnic dormitory. Although other claims have changed a lot due to the different times, the original theme of diversification has not changed.

In fact, Jessie Zhou understood that the Brotherhood is a kind of organization established by American college students. The names of each fraternity are represented by several different Greek letters, and each has its own constitution and purpose.

In order to join the fraternity, in addition to being introduced by the members, they also have to undergo various assessments. For example, do one hundred push-ups; jump from the bridge into the lake in autumn; carry a bag weighing one or two hundred jins prepared in advance by the fraternity, and go around the lake within the prescribed time, and so on.

However, some brotherhoods use some extraordinary projects (such as naked running, stealing underwear) to test the loyalty of the participants. In addition, some fraternities have specific requirements for the academic performance (gpa) of members.

After passing the assessment, the members of the Brotherhood will choose a day to hold an initiation ceremony for the new members in special costumes (such as wearing medieval knight armor), and then designate a member with a higher qualification than him to be the "big brother", and this A "big brother" needs to look like a big brother, invite him to a meal or give him a gift.

It is inevitable for the Brotherhood to hold parties on weekends to vent the stress of a week of intense study. But this is not the only content of their activities. For example, they stipulate that suits and shoes must be entered into the classroom on the same day of the week.

The brothers have to have dinner together regularly (such as once a week) to revisit how to become a gentleman; they also organize some community service and charity activities.

Participating in a fraternity can establish a wider network of contacts. Not only can you help each other in your studies, but you can also get recommendations from your elder brothers when you are looking for a job in the future.
