Chapter 263: The Fake Award Becomes Real

Hearing such a generous question Jiang Qin was so moved tears welled up in his eyes. He immediately asked for pen and paper and wrote for ten minutes then said one should know when to stop so he wouldn’t ask for more this time.

After sending him out Dean Zhang picked up the list on the table and stared at it for a long time his expression gradually freezing.

“Fuck this little bastard really dares to ask for stuff he even wants a car for employees to run errands what does he think he’s doing?”

Dean Zhang crossed out two items with his pen made some calculations and decided to add it to next semester’s support fund.

The Ministry of Education allocated a special fund each year to support college students’ entrepreneurship Dean Zhang didn’t mind adding a bit more on top.

As for how to spend the fund he felt it didn’t matter because with Jiang Qin’s current achievements even if he took the money to get foot massages every day no one could find fault with him.

Because up and down no matter who it was they all cared about results not the process.

Afterward Dean Zhang opened his computer and browsed through the morning news again.

Jiang Qin’s sudden fame indeed had a huge impact on Linchuan University because universities couldn’t possibly advertise on TV that would be too improper but Jiang Qin’s appearance just happened to make up for this gap.

Within the past week Linchuan University was mentioned by various media several times because of Jiang Qin this year’s local admissions work would definitely progress extremely smoothly.

It’s just…

What the hell is this “study star”?

Those interviewed bosses outside kept mentioning Linchuan University’s “study star” but he the vice president didn’t know a damn thing about it it’s really fucking weird.

Dean Zhang called the academic affairs office and inquired in detail about what a “study star” was but no one knew.

Dean Zhang was stupefied thinking could this “study star” be something Jiang Qin made up himself to show off?

Actually with Jiang Qin’s personality he really could do such a thing.

But the current problem was whenever the media mentioned the relationship between Linchuan University and Jiang Qin now they had to bring up “study star” which was troublesome.

If people found out Linchuan University didn’t actually have this award wouldn’t it directly become a joke.

“This stinking brat really knows how to cause me trouble.”

Just as Dean Zhang was pondering how to smooth over this “study star” thing he suddenly received a call from the academic affairs office.

“Dean Zhang the teacher in charge of the campus forum Mr. Li seems to know what’s going on with the ‘study star’.”

“There really is a ‘study star’? Then have this Mr. Li come over.”

“Okay Dean.”

Mr. Li’s full name was Li Huabiao he started working at the school in 2002 in charge of the campus forum but because no one used the forum he practically became an invisible person at the school.

This time he was suddenly sought out by the vice president with various calls leaving him feeling uneasy and at a loss.

It was precisely because he had such an idle job that when he had nothing to do he would read the news and newspapers and learn about Jiang Qin’s achievements over the past year.

To be honest Li Huabiao wasn’t surprised at all.

Why?

Because back when he and Boss Jiang were doing the “study star” thing together he had witnessed it this person possessed all the qualities of a successful person.

Shameless bottomless understanding of people’s hearts and fucking humorous so Li Huabiao admired that Jiang Qin could achieve today’s accomplishments.

However when he heard the words “Linchuan University’s first study star” in the news he was still shocked for a moment his toes instantly dug out a European castle.

Fuck the trashy award he personally created did he not know what it consisted of?

Jiang Qin was actually able to treat this title as a nickname go around telling people about it when doing business and not feel guilty at all.

Is this something ordinary humans can do?

No Li Huabiao imagined himself even if he wore a mask with no acquaintances around he still wouldn’t have the cheek to say “I Linchuan University’s first study star”.

Capitalists are just capitalists they can play around with anything.

When there’s a bit more iron content in salt turning it pink they dare to call it rose salt selling it for more than fucking gold this kind of person probably came up with it right?

Just as he was lost in wild thoughts and constantly being shocked Li Huabiao arrived at Dean Zhang’s office.

“Mr. Li come come come have a seat I’ll pour you some tea.”

“I wouldn’t dare Dean please sit I can do it myself.” Li Huabiao took the teapot poured two cups of tea then sat properly on the sofa.

Dean Zhang smiled slightly: “What exactly is the deal with Jiang Qin being Linchuan University’s first study star?”

“It’s like this Dean back when Jiang Qin’s forum had just started they held a campus belle competition that was very successful we wanted to imitate Jiang Qin’s campus belle competition at the time and do a studying-related contest to stimulate everyone’s enthusiasm for studying.”

“Oh so this competition was actually initiated by our campus forum?”

Li Huabiao nodded: “Yes we took the lead in launching it Student Jiang was quite famous his vote count was always far ahead in the end he won the championship of the competition and obtained the title of study star.”

Dean Zhang took a sip of tea: “No need to ask he definitely cheated with the votes.”

“Uh… Dean you have keen insight.”

“But Mr. Li the competition you did was excellent I greatly admire it.”

Actually in the time it took for Li Huabiao to rush over Dean Zhang had also carefully considered if there was no “Linchuan University’s first study star” title those media outlets might not mention Linchuan University so frequently when reporting.

How to put it this title was equivalent to a link tying Linchuan University and Jiang Qin together.

When his business first started Jiang Qin used this title to tie Linchuan University to himself as credit endorsement.

And now that Jiang Qin was famous this link in turn tied him to Linchuan University becoming an intangible highlight for publicity.

How could this not be considered a good thing?

But the most critical problem now was this “study star” was nothing more than a bubble that would burst with one poke and once the bubble burst the link would no longer exist.

So from the school’s perspective Dean Zhang decided to regularize this competition greatly increase its gold content and tie Jiang Qin to Linchuan University’s pillar of honor.

“Mr. Li are you interested in doing another study star competition?”

“Huh?”

“I’m authorizing you you can freely use school resources but I want you to make this award happen right away you’ve been managing the forum for some time you should be able to do it.”

Li Huabiao swallowed: “I can try.”

Dean Zhang pursed his lips: “How about this first go enrich the background and culture of this award it’s best if there’s some story to it then improve the competition rules in a couple days I’ll gather the academic affairs office to have a meeting and discuss it.”

“Okay Dean.”

“Do a good job your graduation school is excellent and your work ability is very strong you’d be more than enough to be a director at any college.”

Li Huabiao left Dean Zhang’s office in a daze suddenly understanding the saying when one man gets the Way even the dogs and chickens rise to Heaven.

Three days later on a sunny afternoon the school forum and internal website published a notice setting the study star award as a regular learning competition project for the school not only would it be included in the students’ final exam assessment system there would also be a scholarship of up to 5,000 yuan.

Each major would prioritize grades as the evaluation criteria with course credits as a supplementary evaluation criteria to ultimately compete for the final championship.

On the notice’s main page Jiang Qin as the first winner of the study star award was featured and praised to high heaven saying he did not neglect either his studies or business grasping both grades and achievements at the same time simply a dragon among men.

At the same time teachers of various departments also received a notice requiring them to do more publicity and encourage students to actively respond.

However ninety-nine percent of the students were in a state of confusion upon hearing this news thinking fuck it’s already the second edition? Then when did we miss the first edition?

School of Finance Classroom A701.

After hearing the notice read by Jiang Tian Cao Guangyu looked at Jiang Qin in disbelief: “Old Jiang you’re actually Linchuan University’s first study star based on what? Is there no fucking law in this world?”

“Didn’t I tell you all that I’m the study star?”

“No we agreed to fail classes together you not only didn’t fail but secretly won an award are you even human?”

Ren Ziqiang almost cried from listening: “Not neglecting studies or business truly awesome I only failed one class but got scolded several times this semester I might as well be dead.”

Jiang Qin himself also felt quite wondrous fuck this trashy award inexplicably became official who could he reason with about this.

“Didn’t even see a trophy what bullshit study star it’s just empty talk.”

Zhuang Chen was jealous as hell but his face was still full of disdain.

But right at this moment the president of the student union Zhuang Siyu came to the classroom door holding an exquisite crystal trophy and walked in.

The trophy was translucent with Linchuan University’s emblem engraved on it five supports extended upward then flared outward with a shining golden star in the center.

“Junior schoolmate Dean Zhang said your previous trophy was ugly this time he’s giving you a nice replacement.”

“…”

Jiang Qin took the trophy thinking summer vacation was almost here what a fucking timely joy this was.

After Zhuang Siyu left with the student union people Jiang Qin placed the trophy upright on his desk waiting for the next class.

Cao Guangyu’s eyebrows stood up: “Old Jiang didn’t you say you were skipping the next class and asked me to answer for you?”

“I fucking won an award haven’t shown off enough how could I easily retreat the math teacher Old Chen always looks down on me calling my name twice each time today let him get an eyeful of my trophy!”
