Chapter 71 International Student Exchange Program

  ♂?,,

  With a slight jolt, the plane finally came to a stop at the capital airport.

  Lin Hong and Sun Wu walked ahead, while Feng Wan followed behind them.

  Unlike the crowded train station, the airport environment is much better. Although there were more people when I first walked out of the plane, it became much emptier after entering the passageway.

  "Xiao Wu, before boarding the plane, I've already contacted your father. They should be coming to pick us up, just wait a bit." Feng Wan said to Sun Wu.

  "Auntie, I'm not sure if I can still recognize my dad even if I see him," Sun Wu said somewhat helplessly. "When I followed Grandpa back to Shuanghe Village that year, I was probably only four or five years old."

  Feng Wan obviously didn't expect this situation, and comforted her by saying: "It's okay, if we don't run into them at the airport, let's go to Auntie's place first, then Auntie can call Father later."

  But their worries were apparently unnecessary, as soon as they left the airport, Lin Hong saw a man in military uniform holding up an A4-sized white card with the two characters "Sun Wu" written on it in ink.

  By the side of the man stood a woman who was fairly good-looking and a little girl.

  Lin Hong pulled Sun Wu, who was still looking around, and said: "Wu Zi, is that person over there your dad?"

  Sun Wu looked in the direction of his finger, and some vague impressions in his mind gradually merged with that man over there. His face suddenly showed joy: "It's my dad, Auntie, my dad is over there!"

  After saying a word with Feng Wan, Sun Wu immediately ran forward and shouted: "Dad, dad, I'm here!"

  Sun Wu was not a sentimental person to begin with. Seeing his father again after many years, he only felt the joy and excitement of reuniting with a loved one after a long separation. He ran to his father's side and immediately gave him a hug.

  His father picked him up and punched him in the air, laughed after a while, and then put him down.

  Feng Wan pulled Lin Hong's hand and walked over.

  "Ah, so it's Mr. Sun Guotang, Sun Wu's father, right? I'm Feng Wen, we spoke on the phone before." Feng Wen said first.

  "Alright, alright, this time was really too much trouble, thank you very much for taking care of my son all the way!"

  After shaking hands with him, Feng Wan also introduced herself to Sun Guotang's wife, and finally even Sun Wu's sister Sun Xiaoxiao was not missed.

  Lin Hong has been observing from the side how his mother interacts and talks with them. He finds that there is a lot to learn from her in this regard, usually she has an extraordinary aura about her, but at this moment it's gone, only feeling very approachable and friendly. This can be seen from the pleased expressions on Sun Wu's father and others' faces.

  "Little Hong, come and say hello to Uncle Sun." Finally, Sun Wan called out to Lin Hong who had been quietly standing behind her.

  Lin Hong walked forward and said politely: "Uncle Sun, Auntie, hello!"

  "Dad, this is Hongzi, my good brother!" Sun Wu emphasized beside him.

  "Xiao Hong, great!" Sun Guotang responded with a bright smile and enthusiasm.

  From him, Lin Hong saw a shadow of his master. The two had similar facial features, but he was much taller and more robust than his master.

  While they were talking here, people began to come out one after another from an exit passage next to them.

  At this time, some students who were bored and resting on the side immediately stood up at the teacher's call and raised everything in their hands.

  The already somewhat noisy scene became even more chaotic when they appeared, causing a brief commotion that caught Lin Hong's attention.

  Lin Hong looked curiously and found that the red silk banners they were holding had some English phrases or sentences on them.

  The general meaning is that Beijing welcomes friends from the United States to come to China for study and exchange.

  At this time, he saw a large group of foreigners coming out from inside the exit passage.

  This is the capital airport, and it's common to see foreigners, but it's rare to see so many at once. So the appearance of these foreigners caused a small commotion, with everyone speculating about what they were doing in China.

  Some people who understand English guessed their purpose from the banners in the hands of those students who were receiving them outside.

  "Wow, so many foreigners!"

  The adults were still standing here chatting, and on the side, Sun Wudong was looking around boredly, also saw this scene, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

  Feng Wan's conversation was interrupted by Sun Wu's voice, and they all looked over there.

  "What's so strange about it, old chap!"

  Sun Wu's eyes widened as he curiously observed those people, but his ears suddenly picked up a faint voice.

  He turned his head to take a look, and it was exactly what his cheap sister Sun Xiaoxiao had said. He didn't expect this little girl to be silent for half a day, but the words she spoke were so unpleasant.

  Sun Wu didn't bother to argue with her either. After all, there was plenty of time in the future to deal with her, and he could just turn his head back to watch the commotion.

  Feng Wan took a look and already knew what was going on, so she introduced: "These are students and teachers from our school welcoming exchange students from the United States."

  "Oh? Is it that international student exchange program that's been circulating in school recently?" Sun Guotang's eldest son was already in high school, so he had some understanding of the program.

  The "International Student Exchange Program" began after World War II, with the main purpose of strengthening exchanges between different countries, promoting mutual understanding, cultural communication and academic exchange among nations, and facilitating friendly exchanges between countries.

  International exchange student, is to send students as exchange students to their chosen country, where they attend local high school for one year. Exchange students study at local schools, make new friends, learn required subjects and participate in school club activities.

  China is currently not a formal member of the program, but this matter has been put on the agenda and China and the US have reached a preliminary agreement on this issue.

  Feng Wan nodded: "As one of the best key high schools in Beijing, it was selected as the first batch of pilot high schools. The American students they are welcoming are also the first batch of international exchange students to come to China. The list of domestic students going to the US has not been finalized yet, because there is no experience in this aspect before, so we are more cautious in selecting people."

  Sun Guowen nodded, as his son's affairs were also very much on his mind. He had been actively working on this plan lately, hoping to make his son an international exchange student, after all, it was a rare opportunity for overseas study.

  There were a few people standing here on their side, and they were quite conspicuous, so soon someone over there also noticed this side.

  When one of the government representatives saw Feng Wan, his face showed a look of surprise, and then he walked over with two people.
