Chapter 172 The Principal Asks You to Answer the Phone
As soon as get out of class ended, Chen Zhi wandered over to the No. 1 Science Building.
Dai Da-mai was leading several newly recruited doctoral students around a set of server racks, conducting final adjustments.
On the other side of the lab, several students wearing student council armbands were pointing and gesturing around with small notebooks.
The person in the lead looked somewhat familiar to Chen Zhi.
However, he didn't pay attention and walked straight towards Dai Dama.
"How is it?"
Upon hearing Chen Zhi's voice, Dai Da Mai didn't even turn his head, his hands flying across the keyboard as he typed a line of code.
"The hardware links are all connected, and we are currently conducting stress tests."
Chen Zhi hummed in agreement and glanced at the student council members.
"What's going on with those people?"
"Routine inspection." Dai Da-mai finally finished his work, stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "They said it was an inspection of safety and hygiene. The principal's office has already given instructions, so they can just go through the motions."
Chen Zhi nodded. That's more like it.
He tossed his backpack onto an empty table and began discussing serious matters with Dai Dama.
"We still don't have enough manpower; technical staff alone aren't enough. We need to set up the company's structure, and we need to gradually recruit administrative and financial staff. Especially the finance department; our cash flow is getting bigger and bigger, and we must find a trustworthy person to manage it."
Dai Da-mai wholeheartedly agreed: "Indeed, I've been struggling to get reimbursed for all these equipment invoices these past few days. I'm just a tech guy, how would I know anything about this?"
As the two were talking, an untimely voice interrupted.
"Excuse me, is there something wrong with your fire safety equipment here?"
Chen Zhi's train of thought was interrupted, and he turned his head away somewhat displeased.
At this moment, Zhao Jin's mind was in turmoil.
He never dreamed that he would see Chen Zhi again here, in this way.
The scenes from his summer vacation at the driving school resurfaced in his mind.
He thought that getting into Peking University's nursing department would make him stand out from the crowd, but he was beaten to a pulp by Chen Zhi and ended up having to sign a settlement agreement in a humiliating manner at the police station.
During this period, Zhao Jin lived in the shadows.
He tried his best to perform and got into the student council, hoping to regain some self-respect there.
It wasn't until after the start of the semester that he found out that the top student in Jiangcheng this year, the one who got into Peking University's Yuanpei Class, was also named Chen Zhi!
He still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking it was just a case of sharing the same name.
Until this moment, he saw Chen Zhi standing here with his own eyes, listening to the doctoral student respectfully call him "boss".
All the fragments were pieced together in an instant.
He'd been tricked.
From beginning to end, he was manipulated and played like a fool by this bastard.
All those boasts I had made about relying on my status as a nursing student at Peking University now seem like a huge joke.
An indescribable sense of humiliation and anger ignited in his heart.
He couldn't do anything about Chen Zhi.
He can't win a fight.
As for his background, he had already learned that at the police station last time.
But now, he holds the power in the student council.
Although this power is pitifully small, it's enough to disgust people.
"Excuse me, is there something wrong with the fire safety here?"
Zhao Jin, with a stern face, interrupted Chen Zhi and Dai Dama's conversation.
Chen Zhi turned around and looked at him with some confusion.
"Is there a problem? What's wrong?"
Zhao Jin pointed to the unopened fire extinguisher box in the corner and said coldly, "The fire extinguishers are not placed in accordance with regulations, the passageway is cluttered with debris, and besides, with such high power consumption from your servers, where is the approval for the circuit modification application?"
Chen Zhi truly didn't recognize him this time.
Several months have passed, and he has long forgotten about this minor character.
In his eyes, this was just a student leader who was abusing his power and trying to show off.
"This student, the fire-fighting equipment just arrived today and hasn't been installed yet. As for the electrical wiring, the school's logistics department came and modified it themselves; the paperwork is all in the principal's office."
Chen Zhi patiently explained, then turned to Dai Dama and continued speaking: "For the finance matter, we'll find a headhunting firm to poach someone. Finance is no small matter; we must find a reliable person."
Zhao Jin's face turned bright red when he realized he was being ignored.
He took a step forward and raised his voice.
"Hey student, I'm talking to you! Your fire safety facilities aren't in place. What if there's a fire? This is a serious safety hazard!"
Chen Zhi finally looked at him properly.
"The fire-fighting equipment will arrive the day after tomorrow," Chen Zhi explained politely, giving the principal face. "If there are no other problems, you can leave. We need to start up the equipment this afternoon; we're very busy."
"no"
He closed the notebook in his hand.
"We are currently conducting a comprehensive fire safety inspection across the entire school. School leaders and the student union have repeatedly emphasized that no potential hazard can be overlooked. The situation here is too complicated, so we must suspend work and rectify the issues first."
The student council members behind him exchanged glances, all feeling that Zhao Jin was making a mountain out of a molehill today.
This was a project specially approved by the principal. They just came to stamp it and leave. Why make such a fuss?
Dai Dama, who was standing to the side, was a little angry.
"Stop work? Are you kidding me! We're running the model this afternoon, how much will this stoppage disrupt?"
Zhao Jin glanced at Dai Dama, exuding official authority.
"Is delaying things more important or saving lives? If a fire breaks out, can you take responsibility?"
Chen Zhi was amused.
He looked at Zhao Jin with great interest.
"Improve? Okay, then tell me how you're going to do it?"
"First, cut off the power and clear the site. You can start construction only after our school's security department and fire department have jointly inspected and approved the site."
Zhao Jin felt a surge of pleasure.
Aren't you the top scorer in the province? Aren't you awesome?
Now, if I tell you to stop, you have to stop.
Chen Zhi's smile faded.
He realized that this kid wasn't there to inspect, but to cause trouble.
"Does the secretary of your student union's Youth League Committee know that you've asked us to make changes?"
Chen Zhi spoke calmly, revealing no emotion.
Zhao Jin's heart skipped a beat.
He did indeed act on his own initiative.
The senior student who was originally in charge of the team had something come up at the last minute, so he was put in charge of this part, which is why he had this authority.
But he stubbornly insisted, "I'm representing the student council on official business! These kinds of security issues don't require reporting every single one!"
Chen Zhi sighed.
He took out his phone and found a number.
"Okay, since you're so responsible, I'll report it for you."
Zhao Jin watched Chen Zhi's actions and his heart began to pound, but he still didn't say anything.
"It's no use calling anyone! Rules and regulations are rules and regulations!"
Just then, Chen Zhi's call went through.
He didn't turn on speakerphone, but the server room was very quiet, and a dignified voice could be faintly heard from the other end.
"Hello, Principal Hao, this is Chen Zhi."
Zhao Jin's face turned pale.
Principal Hao?
Impossible! How could a freshman like him contact the principal directly?
It must be an act!
Chen Zhi spoke casually into his phone.
"Here's the thing, the student union says the computer labs in Science Building No. 1 don't meet fire safety standards and are demanding we immediately shut off the power, clear the area, and rectify the issues indefinitely. I'd like to ask if there are any new policies from the school?"
There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone.
Chen Zhi held his phone a little further away, looked at Zhao Jin, and smiled.
"The principal wants you to answer the phone."
Zhao Jin looked at the phone that was handed to him and began to feel a little unsure.
He probably doesn't actually know the principal.
He took the phone shakily, but before he could speak, the questioning from the other end came through.
"Who gave you the authority to order Deep Space Technology to halt operations and undergo rectification? What's your name? Which college are you from?"
Zhao Jin felt his knees buckle and he almost fell to the ground.
"Principal... I..."
"I personally approved that project, and I personally oversaw the inspection of all the fire safety and electrical systems! You know more about fire safety than I do?"
"I didn't... I thought..."
"You think you're something special! Right now, take your people and get out of there! Write a 3,000-word self-criticism and hand it in to my office tomorrow morning! Also, have your student council president come see me this afternoon!"
The call was disconnected.
The students who came with Zhao Jin were now looking at him as if he were a dead man.
Chen Zhi took the phone back from Zhao Jin and patted him on the shoulder.
"That's very responsible, keep up the good work next time."
Zhao Jin opened his mouth, but it felt like something was blocking his throat, and he couldn't utter a single word.
Looking at Chen Zhi's calm and collected face, he finally remembered where this sense of familiarity came from.
Isn't this the same expression Chen Zhi made when he made him faint from anger at the police station during summer vacation?
"Let's go..."
Zhao Jin lowered his head and slunk away with his men.
"etc."
Chen Zhi suddenly spoke up.
Zhao Jin stiffened and mechanically turned his head.
"Since you're here, could you lend a hand?"
Chen Zhi pointed to the heavy fire extinguisher boxes by the door.
"Since you think the arrangement is improper, then help us move it to that corner. After all, you're the professional, right?"
Zhao Jin looked at the heavy iron boxes and then at Chen Zhi's kind gaze.
He gritted his teeth, walked over without saying a word, bent down, and struggled to lift it up.
Chen Zhi sat back down, watching Zhao Jin's busy figure, and spoke leisurely.
"By the way, Lao Dai, we really need someone in charge here. Could you keep an eye out for a senior student who's assertive and efficient, preferably from the law school or economics school?"
"What would you do with him? As a secretary?"
"Be a housekeeper," Chen Zhi rubbed his temples, "so that no Tom, Dick, or Harry can come and step on our feet."
After moving the last fire extinguisher, Zhao Jin was covered in sweat, his white shirt sticking to his back.
He didn't dare linger for even a second and rushed out of the laboratory as if fleeing.
Just as he stepped outside, Zhao Jin's phone rang.
It was the student council president calling.
The moment the call connected, the chairman's furious voice came through.
"Zhao Jin! What the hell did you do? The principal called the Youth League Committee directly! Are you trying to get the whole student council killed?"
Zhao Jin's vision went black, and he only managed to stay upright by holding onto the wall.
He knew that his student council career might be over.
