I met my whole family through Baidu Tieba.

"This exchange process can be divided into several stages. For example, in the first stage, I will introduce the situation of my second-hand guitar, such as how much it cost when I bought it, how old it is, what stories it has, and so on. After this stage, the 12 girls can express their opinions and choose whether they are interested in my second-hand guitar."

Shen Kang casually mentioned this and added, "Well, we can also add a 'lights-on' function. Initially, all 12 girls' lights will be on. After my demonstration of the secondhand guitar in the first stage, the 12 girls who are not interested can turn off their lights, while those who are interested can keep their lights on."

"If any girls still have their lights on, then I'll move on to the second stage and start introducing myself..."

"Then comes the third stage..."

"If at this point in the end there are still girls with their lights on, say two girls with their lights on who both want my used guitar, who should I sell it to?"

"At this point, it changed from a buyer's market to a seller's market, and it was my turn to choose one of the two of them and sell the used guitar to her."

"Of course, in situations like this, I can also have some of my privileges—you can't just allow buyers to choose sellers while not allowing sellers to choose buyers, right? So I can ask them some questions..."

Shen Kang spoke fluently and without any stumbles, as if he had thought it through long ago.

In fact, this was something he had already planned long ago.

On the night Feng Moquan turned his dorm room into a palace, seemingly heartbroken, Shen Kang told him that he had come up with a plan to get Feng Moquan to interact with more girls. His purpose, of course, was to pull Feng Moquan out of the shadow of heartbreak as soon as possible.

The trick Shen Kang came up with back then is exactly what he's talking about now.

If I were to meet 12 girls at once, would I bring a party?

If it doesn't work the first time, have it rerun; if it does it twice, just bring in a new batch.

If it doesn't work twice, then hold a revival round and try a different batch...

Feng Moquan is incredibly lucky to have such a wonderful roommate; he's practically blessed with good fortune. He has no choice but to call him his godfather.

However, things came up one after another. Before this thing was ready, the matter of the public welfare zone came first, so Shen Kang started to work on the public welfare zone.

As a result, things kept piling up, and here we are, and lo and behold, this event has to take the lead again. How wonderful.

"...Basically, through this kind of activity, we first put the label of 'second-hand + social gathering' on ourselves. It's perfectly natural for us to use two commercial websites to do this kind of thing, and there's nothing wrong with it."

"Once this hat is on, we'll do this 'charity + social event' then."

At this point, Shen Kang clapped his hands, "Then, public opinion will have a natural advantage!"

Just like the social psychological phenomenon he mentioned before, when a website that focuses on secondhand matchmaking suddenly starts doing charity work, it's like a bad person who has been doing bad things suddenly doing good deeds—it's the same principle. In a broad social psychology, people will only applaud, thinking that their company truly has a sense of social responsibility, making money while still doing charity, thus giving them an inherent advantage in the public opinion arena.

Upon hearing this, Ding Zhentao couldn't help but slap the table and applaud.

From a feasibility standpoint, he had already fully approved of Shen Kang's cross-school one-on-one donation initiative.

Ding Zhentao also casually asked Shen Kang about the event he mentioned, whether it was something he had already thought of, and what its name was.

Shen Kang readily admitted that it was indeed something he had thought of long ago, and also revealed the planned name of the event.

"...Let's call it 'If You Are the One'."

At this time of year, "If You Are the One" had not yet premiered, so Ding Zhentao didn't react much to the name, only feeling that it was quite fitting—being so strict about buying and selling secondhand items really is "If You Are the One."

After discussing this event, Shen Kang's offensive didn't stop; he then moved on to the vital interests of the Qianmin University.

"...Currently, the Warm Sunshine Society of Qianmin University is our only partner. At present, it is only the two universities that are jointly carrying out this public welfare activity, but as our website expands, we expect that more and more schools will join this public welfare activity in the future. At that time, it is very likely that the Warm Sunshine Society will join forces with students from several major universities to carry out public welfare activities."

After discussing Nuanyang Society, Shen Kang also touched upon its technical significance.

"This is also a typical example of how technology changes lives."

"Before this, how difficult and costly would it have been for Yangko University in Beilu District to cooperate with Qianmin University in the High-tech Zone on a public welfare activity? In reality, how few students could be mobilized and how few materials could be collected? But now, with the advancement of technology, especially the advancement of Internet technology and the innovation of models, all these difficulties and costs have been greatly overcome."

"The internet is playing an increasingly important role in our lives. It is profoundly changing every aspect and corner of our lives..."

Ding Zhentao listened quietly, lost in thought.

The public welfare project jointly launched by Qianmin Da Nuanyang Society and Shen Kang is indeed a very good entrepreneurial case of how the Internet can change lives. Moreover, this project not only has commercial value, but also has high social welfare value.

Ding Zhentao is the dean of the School of Computer Science at Minzu University.

To be honest, he was completely convinced by the student from Yang University of Science and Technology in front of him. After Shen Kang finished speaking, he finally responded: "Let's leave this matter here for now. Let's go back to what you said at the beginning. What did you say you were interested in?...

Shen Kang originally only wanted one of those houses.

But after chatting with Ding Zhentao just now, he suddenly realized that the place was pretty good. One room wasn't enough! If possible, he should take all of them!

So he expressed this idea to Ding Zhentao.

Ding Zhentao was speechless when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he did not refuse. Instead, he told Shen Kang to wait for news while he went to ask what the situation was.

After finalizing the main direction with Ding Zhentao, Shen Kang invited Ding Zhentao out for dinner.

Ding Zhentao had nothing to do today, so he agreed, saying that since Shen Kang was a guest, he should treat him to the meal. However, after Shen Kang said a few more things, proving from several angles the necessity of him treating, Ding Zhentao went along with it and didn't insist anymore.

Since Ding Zhentao still had work to do, Shen Kang left first to book a place.

However, he wasn't very familiar with the university town in the high-tech zone, so as soon as he left Ding Zhentao's office, he immediately called Yin Mingyang.

Yin Mingyang and Su Yali had already dispersed.

Shen Kang stayed in Ding Zhentao's office for quite a while. When he made the call, Yin Mingyang had just picked up Huang Jing from the Nuanyang Society's activity venue that day.

The two had just returned by bus and were walking on the campus sidewalk when Yin Mingyang received a call from Shen Kang.

Shen Kang had spent most of the day exploring and had a general impression of some of the areas around Qianmin University. After finding out Yin Mingyang's current location, he arranged to meet at a nearby pavilion.

After hanging up the phone, Huang Jing, who was next to her, asked, "Shen Kang?"

"Okay." Yin Mingyang put away his phone.

"I was thinking before that I hoped your best friend could come to Thousand Minzu University, and we would treat him to a meal," Huang Jing said, recounting her past idea.

This was her initial thought when she first got together with Yin Mingyang; she felt that their relationship would be more meaningful with the blessing of Shen Kang, Yin Mingyang's best friend.

"I didn't expect him to actually show up. Goodness, he really gave those people a hard time," Huang Jing said with a laugh.

Shen Kang's arrival truly turned her social circle upside down. Her phone received an unprecedented number of text messages and phone calls today, all inquiring about Shen Kang and Yin Mingyang.

As they talked, they walked toward the agreed-upon pavilion. They hadn't been there long when they saw Shen Kang arrive as well.

"Long time no see." Shen Kang was still quite enthusiastic towards Huang Jing, after all, she was Yin Mingyang's girlfriend.

After the three sat down, Shen Kang went straight to the point about dinner that night: "...I've invited Dean Ding from your school's Computer Science Department to dinner. Lao Yin and Huang Jing, you two should come along too."

Upon hearing that he was going to have dinner with the dean, Yin Mingyang immediately chickened out and quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, you can go by yourself, we won't go."

Shen Kang looked at him and said, "Old Yin, you'll be in charge of the money in the future, you'll be the CF (Crossfire) leader for this area. I've gone to great lengths to build some connections for us, how can you, as the CF leader, not go and pay your respects?"

"What uf?"

"It's KFC."

After a brief exchange of words, Yin Mingyang still looked timid: "Didn't you say you were going to set up a logistics point here? How come I've become some kind of 'Crossfire of this area' now?"

"Life is unpredictable," Shen Kang said casually. "After chatting with Dean Ding for so long, I've changed my mind. I'll just roll it out and bring over the system I used at Yang University of Science and Technology. There are still quite a few shops, and I need to take good care of the finances. I don't trust anyone else to handle it; I trust you the most."

"Besides, didn't I say this during the summer vacation? You're born for this job, it would be a shame if you didn't."

Shen Kang then brought up the story of how Yin Mingyang saved money to pay for internet access on his birthday during the summer vacation.

"...Even if you embezzle public funds, you'll still embezzle more than others. I have faith in you."

Yin Mingyang spat, "Bullshit, do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Even after spitting, I still hesitated.

"It's not that I don't want to keep an eye on things for you, it's just that I don't know if I can do it well..."

He was afraid that he was not capable enough and would ruin Shen Kang's plans.

Shen Kang, however, didn't care at all. "No one is born knowing how to do everything. Just practice slowly. Anyway, you have talent. Besides, my family is very wealthy. It's okay if you make a small mistake in the numbers. I'll just consider it as embezzlement."

"Pah!..." Yin Mingyang spat again, but still hesitated.

Shen Kang was too lazy to waste words with him and simply gave Huang Jing a look.

As expected, with Huang Jing's intervention, Yin Mingyang quickly couldn't hold on any longer.
