The Chongqing food delivery courier who was once an Internet phenomenon because of his English text messages to customers has been admitted by Sichuan International Studies University (SISU) after taking the self-taught examination for higher education.
曾因给顾客发英文短信在互联网上走红的重庆外卖小哥被四川外国语大学录取了,此前他参加了全国高等教育自学考试。
The 18-year-old courier, Mao Zhaomu, on August 14 returned to the campus where he worked as a delivery boy, now as a student of the college.
18岁的毛召木于8月14日返回了他曾送外卖的校园,现在他成了该校一名学生。
Early this year Mao became an internet sensation for messaging customers in English. His story was widely reported by domestic media, attracting much public attention.
今年早些时候,毛召木因用英语给顾客发短信在互联网上引起轰动。他的故事被国内媒体广泛报道,吸引了很多公众的关注。
"I had to receive about two media outlets every day. I never expected such a big social impact," Mao said.
毛召木说道:“我每天得接受约两家媒体的采访。我从来没有想过会有这么大的社会影响。”
Even so, he still kept his dream of learning English alive every day after finishing work. "We all respect people with dreams. I encouraged him every time I received my food from him," a SISU student noted.
即便如此,他仍然坚持每天下班后学习英语的梦想。川外一名学生指出:“我们尊重有梦想的人。每次从他那里收到外卖时我都会鼓励他。”
Early last month, Mao stopped dispatching food and concentrated on preparations for the examination and college application. Today, his efforts have finally paid off. He received his admission letter from SISU on August 10.
上月初,毛召木停止了送外卖,他集中精力于准备考试和大学申请。现在,他的努力终于得到了回报。他于8月10日收到了川外的录取通知书。
