An unexpected win. A funny story for children about Seryozha.
The next day, Seryozha and his friends arrived at the Central Foundation for Financing Priority Initiatives.
They were greeted with friendly smiles and applause.
Seryozha looked triumphantly at his friends ("You see!").
The Chairman of the competition committee politely bowed to Seryozha and made a gesture with his hand. The music started playing "We glorify the Heroes of sports proudly!...".
With the sounds of the music, a girl-employee of Foundation (with the model appearance) brought a beautifully packaged, roomy cardboard box.
The Chairman announced:
- Congratulations on receiving a grant worth one hundred billion dollars! Naturally, according to the ongoing monetary policy, grants are issued in rubles.
The friends looked at Seryozha with joyful surprise, even incredulously.
- I thank the Chairman, the competition commission as a whole and each member of the commission individually for the high appreciation of my talents! - Seryozha replied politely (as befits a candidate for the post of Special Ambassador for Economic Cooperation with the countries of the global majority). - Can we pick up my grant right now? Where should I put my signature?
- Yes! It is not only possible to take away your grant right now, but it is also necessary. The box contains a personal pass to the bank's vault (in the name of the winner, that is, in your name, in the name of Seryozha) and the keys to the bank cells. You don't need to sign anywhere. All lottery ticket numbers are included in the information database. Upon presentation of the ticket for verification, especially when winning, the number is taken into account, the relevant information is sent to us, to the Foundation. The drawing is tomorrow at 12 p.m.
- What a lottery tickets?
- The grant "for creative courage" is issued in lottery tickets [not in banknotes]. Creatively brave people are lucky persons. They are happy to receive a grant with [in] lottery tickets [but not with [in] banknotes]. Each ticket costs one thousand rubles. Nine billion, two hundred and fifty-five million tickets are waiting for you in the bank.
Seryozha was not at a loss:
- And where is the Certificate of Honor confirming my receipt of the grant?
- The competition committee started working early in the morning. Immediately after the decision on the grant was made, an Internet search was carried out for the keywords "Seryozha, a schoolboy, a popular painter, candidate for the positions of International Sports Inspector (for Africa) and Special Ambassador for Economic Cooperation with the countries of the global majority, Chairman of the Public Council of the Basin, address of residence." Our employee, messenger, was sent to the found address; he put the Certificate of Honor in the mailbox.
- Will my paintings be returned to me?
- No! The paintings, in accordance with the current rules, are included in a traveling exhibition to raise the cultural level of the population and they went on a special purple train through cities and towns for free demonstration.
Seryozha took the box from the hands of a girl-employee (with the model appearance) and silently, together with his friends, headed for the exit. With his hand on the door handle, he told his friends:
- We need to sell as many lottery tickets as possible before the drawing.
Going outside, they headed for the bank.
After several minutes of silence, Seryozha spoke out:
- It's a pity that we didn't visit this Foundation earlier. In it, we can get an education for free (without any preferential loans for educational needs) according to the program of qualification "Effective manager".
- And the diploma? The document of higher education? - One of the friends asked.
Seryozha pointed by his hand to the ad, attached to the wall of the house above human height, "Diplomas, courseworks. Phone number.... "
- However, the most successful people do without a diploma, - Seryozha added.
Seryozha walked at a brisk pace. Friends tried to keep up with him.
