Reborn as a landlord in Shanghai

Chapter 109 School Test Results

After signing the contract, Du Yue and Peng Yu became more attentive to Mao Xiaoyu's acquisition of Tencent's shares.

After all, although this deal didn't make money, it was the first shot they fired in the Hong Kong stock market. Since they had already made a public appearance, they had to do it well so that they could leave a good reputation.

Therefore, two weeks later, Du Yue and Peng Yu, without saying a word, once again led four traders to fight it out in the Hong Kong stock market. This time, the battle was even more intense, making every Tencent stock that Mao Xiaoyu acquired a bloody battle.

As for Mao Xiaoyu, she was extremely satisfied with the employees who worked so hard to earn money for their boss. She should have been serving them tea and water and helping them with logistical support, but unfortunately, Mao Xiaoyu had other business to attend to today and had to come to Zhang's law firm.

As for why Mao Xiaoyu came to Zhang's law firm, it's because her test report from school came out today.

Although Mao Xiaoyu wants to get a bachelor's degree, according to the rules, if she doesn't get into a regular university and wants to transfer to a bachelor's program, she still needs to attend a two-year associate's degree program.

After Mao Xiaoyu completed her two-year associate degree program, she was able to transfer to a bachelor's program in her third year. Fortunately, the schools were all the same, so there was no need for further trouble to transfer from associate to bachelor's degree.

However, the performing arts school has six majors: music, drama, television and film, dance, stage, and production arts.

Although Mao Xiaoyu wants to study television and film and become a director in the future, and maybe even seduce some minor celebrities, becoming a director requires talent, and not everyone can be a director.

So last Friday, Attorney Zhang brought Mao Xiaoyu to the school to take the school's test. After three days, she finally received the test results today, so Mao Xiaoyu needs to come to Attorney Zhang's office to discuss it.

When Mao Xiaoyu arrived at Lawyer Zhang's law firm, she was warmly received by Lawyer Zhang, who then respectfully invited her into his office and personally poured her coffee.

After finishing all these small tasks, Attorney Zhang took out the test report from his file folder and handed it to Mao Xiaoyu.

Mao Xiaoyu was quite curious about the test results, so she took the test report without hesitation and started reading.

The test results showed that Mao Xiaoyu had some talent in television and film, dance, and music, with the highest talent in dance and music, and slightly less talent in television and film. Therefore, the school hoped that Mao Xiaoyu would study music and dance, and could also study film and television.

To be honest, Mao Xiaoyu was also a little stunned when she heard the test results.

After all, Mao Xiaoyu has never studied music and dance, so how could she possibly have the highest talent?

After Mao Xiaoyu finished reading the test report results, she realized why the test report given by the school was so...

He has the greatest talent in music and dance.

Perhaps because of her rebirth, Mao Xiaoyu's physical strength and power have increased significantly. Although she doesn't usually test it, Mao Xiaoyu can still feel it.

This time, because it was necessary to test talents in music, dance, etc., some talents that were not usually noticed, but which had high professional requirements, were gradually revealed one by one.

After Mao Xiaoyu was reborn, her extraordinary physique was gradually revealed through testing. For example, the test Mao Xiaoyu took showed that her pitch reached three octaves, a pitch that only professional singers can achieve.

Mao Xiaoyu, on the other hand, had never been trained, yet she could reach three octaves.

With further training, four octaves should be no problem, and five octaves are even possible. If one could truly reach five octaves...

There are very few like that in the whole world.

Moreover, Mao Xiaoyu's voice is very comfortable, with excellent timbre and resonance. Even the distinctiveness of her voice is somewhat different from others.

In addition, Mao Xiaoyu is very handsome and tall, so the school teachers have a very high opinion of him in the field of music.

Even Mao Xiaoyu's dance is the same. Perhaps due to her rebirth, the coordination, length, and flexibility of her limbs are all moving closer to perfection.

In addition, the teacher could tell that Mao Xiaoyu had not received systematic dance training and was a genius, which is why the teacher had a high opinion of Mao Xiaoyu's dancing skills.

As for her remaining talent in television and film, she is also quite good. After all, she has 20 years of experience watching movies, and she can speak eloquently about the future development of film and television. This is a big plus in the eyes of her teachers. Therefore, her teachers gave her very good evaluations, saying that if Mao Xiaoyu studies hard, she will definitely be able to meet the requirements for undergraduate graduation in four years.

Mao Xiaoyu placed the test report on the table, rubbed her temples, glanced at Lawyer Zhang sitting opposite her, and couldn't help but ask, "Lawyer Zhang, what does the school mean by this?"

"The school's intention is that, for such an outstanding student as you, in order not to waste your talent, we hope you will study across disciplines. If you do well in any subject, you will also receive a graduation certificate."

For example, if you study music, and you successfully complete your undergraduate music program, you can receive a bachelor's degree in music. The same applies to dance; if you also pass the dance entrance exam, you can receive a bachelor's degree.

"Of course, if you study very well, you can pursue a master's degree, and even a doctorate is not a problem. As long as you can keep studying these majors, you can continue to study." Attorney Zhang said softly.

"But how can I have the time to learn three subjects at once? I don't have much time in Hong Kong to begin with, and I also have other things to do both in mainland China and Hong Kong. It's impossible for me to focus on them. Besides, even if I master music and dance, it's not like I, a billionaire, would have to perform for money!" Mao Xiaoyu said speechlessly.

When Attorney Zhang heard Mao Xiaoyu's words, he thought about it and realized it made sense. After all, he had helped Mao Xiaoyu handle some matters these past few days and had learned about some of the assets Mao Xiaoyu had revealed. Right now, Mao Xiaoyu was using hundreds of millions of assets to speculate in stocks. How could she possibly go out and sing, dance, or become a street performer?

According to Attorney Zhang, whether it's wealthy people in mainland China or Hong Kong, they generally look down on actors, so it's impossible for them to dance and sing energetically on stage for ordinary people.

"It's always good to have more skills. Learning more is always beneficial. Anyway, they are all things in the performing arts industry. Moreover, music and dance require talent. People with talent learn very quickly. If you don't have talent, the school teachers won't let you learn them."

Even if you become a director in the future, you can still add music and dance to your films, which can greatly enhance them. Moreover, the various departments in the performing arts academy are very close to each other, so you can just walk over and learn them without spending much time.

More importantly, many of the students who study singing and dancing are beautiful girls. If you go to study, you might even meet some beautiful girls. If you can actually get a few girlfriends, your school life will be quite colorful! Lawyer Zhang still advised.

"Okay, okay, we'll see when the time comes. School doesn't start until September, right? There's still more than half a month until then. We'll see when the time comes. If I really don't have the energy to study, then I'll just have to cut one or two subjects," Mao Xiaoyu said helplessly.

Although Mao Xiaoyu didn't have any intention of performing on stage, she thought that if she learned, she could still fool girls. Thinking about how she was tone-deaf and uncoordinated in her past life, she was always lacking in some talents. Learning music and dancing in this life would be like adding some talents to herself.

If she really couldn't keep up with the studies, Mao Xiaoyu was self-aware enough to know that if she couldn't continue, she could simply stop studying and stick to studying television and film. Mao Xiaoyu refused to believe that she couldn't learn anything of substance by studying television and film.

"In that case, I'll register you for three subjects. As for the fees, I'll give you the bill at the end of the month," Attorney Zhang said happily.

Attorney Zhang's purpose in persuading Mao Xiaoyu was to get her to enroll in more classes, since the more classes she enrolled in, the higher the tuition would be. As for whether Mao Xiaoyu would actually attend the classes, that was no longer his concern, since Attorney Zhang had already earned his share of the money.

Of course, these bills will eventually be sent to Mao Xiaoyu, and how Mao Xiaoyu complains about them in the end is none of Zhang's business.

"Okay, there's one more thing I need to mention. Since I signed the contract with Du Yue and Peng Yu yesterday, you can make arrangements to do the preliminary work for their immigration. As for the financial company, do the same. Get the case settled and the company established first. I'll put out the framework," Mao Xiaoyu said after thinking for a moment.

After all, in Mao Xiaoyu's view, since he had signed contracts with Du Yue and Peng Yu, the two of them were, in a sense, his subordinates. As their boss, he should think more about their needs.

"Okay, Mr. Mao." Attorney Zhang agreed very readily. After all, the more things Mao Xiaoyu arranged, the more money he would earn. Nobody in this world would turn down money.

After thinking it over, Mao Xiaoyu realized there wasn't much else to arrange, so she prepared to leave Attorney Zhang's law firm and go back to keep an eye on her stock market, since Tencent's stock was the most important thing right now.

"Is everything alright now? It's fine. Just help me arrange these things. I'll start classes after school starts in September. As for anything else, call me if you need anything," Mao Xiaoyu asked, standing up.

"Mr. Mao, everything is fine now. You can leave the rest to me." Attorney Zhang agreed very readily.

"Alright, I'll be going now. You can go about your business here, no need to see me off." After saying this, Mao Xiaoyu left Attorney Zhang's office and walked out of the law firm.

When they arrived outside the law firm, the scorching sun made Mao Xiaoyu even more eager to take a taxi and leave. But just then, she suddenly saw someone filming a scene on the street not far away.

Seeing a group of men and women busy at work, Mao Xiaoyu curiously looked over.

Hmm, that one looks a bit like Yang Ying!

Mao Xiaoyu's eyesight was incredibly sharp; with just a quick glance, she spotted Yang Ying among the group.

I never expected this!

It's true what they say, you never know where you might meet someone again!

Hong Kong is so big, Mao Xiaoyu never imagined that she would meet Yang Ying after only a few days in Hong Kong.

And I met her while she was working.

Since we've encountered this...

Should I go over and say hello?

Mao Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, after all, she had never told Yang Ying that she had arrived in Hong Kong.

What would the other person's reaction be if I suddenly appeared out of nowhere?

Thinking about this, Mao Xiaoyu felt it was better not to take the risk. It would be troublesome if things ended up awkward for both of them after they went out.

After all, Mao Xiaoyu still couldn't figure out how much affection Yang Ying still had for her.

If there's not much affection left, and going there this time makes her feel awkward, then she might lose even the last bit of affection, which would be a loss.

Thinking of this, Mao Xiaoyu gave Yang Ying a deep look, then hailed a taxi and drove off.

Just as Mao Xiaoyu was hailing a taxi, Yang Ying, who was filming over there, suddenly glanced at Mao Xiaoyu as if by some strange twist of fate.

That one glance was enough to startle Yang Ying.

After all, the figure she just saw really resembled Mao Xiaoyu, so Yang Ying immediately felt that it was Mao Xiaoyu who had come looking for her.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

When Yang Ying looked again, Mao Xiaoyu had already gotten into the taxi, and Yang Ying could no longer see Mao Xiaoyu.

It was precisely because she hadn't seen Mao Xiaoyu in person that Yang Ying felt a little more at ease, realizing that she had been overthinking things. So when she suddenly saw a very similar figure from behind, she thought it looked a bit like Mao Xiaoyu.

Thinking of this, Yang Ying couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly!

After all, Mao Xiaoyu is still in Shanghai, how could she possibly be in Hong Kong?

With the urging of the staff around her, Yang Ying didn't think much about it and got busy again.

Mao Xiaoyu returned to the place where Du Yue and Peng Yu worked. After that, Mao Xiaoyu didn't go anywhere else and went straight to the room to serve Du Yue and Peng Yu!

There's no way around it; Du Yue and Peng Yu are Mao Xiaoyu's closest benefactors now. Since the two of them are so good at making money, of course she has to treat them even more respectfully than she would her own parents.

So when the two of them were battling it out in the Hong Kong stock market, Mao Xiaoyu would take care of everything for them, including what they needed to eat, drink, and use, and would find someone to buy it for them as quickly as possible.
