"Class of 2000, Senior High School (2) Class"...
Wang Ye graduated from high school in the summer of 2000. After the college entrance examination results were released, his score could only get him into the worst Tier 2 schools or colleges.
Since he did not wish to compromise on his choices, he was bound to not attend university at all.
So he started looking for opportunities to study abroad. Due to a rather unreliable intermediary, he was delayed for half a year before he finally left around early January 2001, arriving in Moscow.
Now it's February 2002, and his high school classmates should be in their Junior Year by now.
On the homepage of the class alumni directory, Wang Ye saw a notice saying that a class QQ Group had been established and asking all members to join directly.
Wang Ye was a bit surprised, had QQ Group functionality been launched?
He hadn't noticed it before.
