Monday morning, the sky was a clear blue.
Capital Normal University, Kede College
The ginkgo leaves on the main road of the campus have all fallen, and a cold wind is blowing.
A group of freshmen, bundled up in thick down jackets, were yawning and carrying steamed buns and soy milk as they hurried toward the training building.
A McLaren 765LT slowly glided down the tree-lined avenue and stopped in an open-air parking space next to the training building.
The car door opened.
Wang Ye got off the car wearing a neat dark baseball jacket, black sweatpants, and sneakers, with a white canvas bag slung over one shoulder.
He strode into the building and arrived at lecture hall 204 on the second floor.
This morning at 8:30, it was the compulsory major course for the drama and film directing major – "Screenwriting and Adaptation of Film and Television Scripts".
The classroom was noisy and there were already more than a dozen people sitting inside.
Wang Ye recently starred in the hit movie "Raging Waves," which became a sensation online, and he has long been a popular figure at his school.
As soon as the classroom door was opened, the noise inside instantly subsided.
Zhou Xiaomeng, sitting in the front row, widened her eyes and waved frantically at Wang Ye.
"Chairman Wang! Over here! Over here! I've saved you a spot near the heater!"
Several boys from Class One turned around and greeted him with faces full of admiration.
"Brother Qiang is here!"
"Why does Brother Qiang have time to pamper us mere mortals today?"
Wang Ye walked over, threw his bag on the table, and pulled out a chair to sit down.
"Stop talking nonsense. This student loves learning and thinks about coming back every day to be baptized by knowledge."
Zhou Xiaomeng handed over a can of hot milk, grinning mischievously.
"Chairman Wang, come on, it's been over two months since school started, and you've only been here for less than ten days."
"But you've come at the right time. I heard from the counselor that the department has been cracking down on attendance lately, especially for people like us who are out filming and are under close surveillance."
Wang Ye bit open the straw and took a sip, his expression nonchalant.
"Let them enforce it strictly then. University life is great; what kind of university life is it if you don't skip classes?"
A burst of laughter erupted in the classroom.
The two long classes passed quickly.
The old lecturer on the podium had just finished packing up his lesson plan and stepped out the back door when the front door of the classroom was suddenly pushed open forcefully.
A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a dark blue jacket walked in with a stern face.
Her hair was neatly combed, her belly was slightly protruding, and she was holding a stainless steel thermos with the words "Department Administration Office" printed on it.
This is Liu Dagang, the head of the Directing Department at the School of Drama and Film.
Liu Dagang was known in the department for his great official authority and liked to put on a superior leader's air in front of students.
If any student's family has connections or drives a luxury car, he will always try to extort some money from them.
The moment the students in the classroom saw Liu Dagang, the cheerful atmosphere instantly turned to freezing point, and many quickly lowered their heads and pretended to read.
Liu Dagang stood on the podium, unscrewed the thermos and blew on the steam, then slowly glanced around the classroom.
Finally, his gaze landed precisely on Wang Ye, who was sitting by the window.
Liu Dagang cleared his throat and slammed his thermos on the podium, making a dull thud.
Is Wang Ye here?
Wang Ye was looking down at his phone at the progress of the special effects for "The Wandering Earth" sent by Shang Hongdie when he heard his name called. He lazily raised his hand.
"Yes, Director Liu, what are your instructions?"
When Liu Dagang saw Wang Ye's nonchalant attitude, his brows immediately furrowed into a deep frown.
He was used to being the most powerful person in the department, and every student would bow and scrape and greet him as "Director Liu."
Even if this kid in front of me has some fame online and filmed a lousy TV series, he's still just an ordinary student under my tutelage.
They're too lazy to even stand up!
Liu Dagang had a stern face and spoke in a very official tone.
"Wang Ye, don't rush off after class."
"Pack your things and come to my office!"
After saying that, Liu Dagang walked out of the classroom with his hands behind his back, his belly protruding, and his gait swaying.
The classroom erupted in chaos.
Zhou Xiaomeng tugged at Wang Ye's sleeve in her anxiety.
"Wang Ye, you're in big trouble! Liu the Skinflint is definitely up to no good!"
"Last semester, a senior student skipped class three times for taking on freelance photography jobs. Liu Bapi refused to sign his papers, and in the end, he had to give Liu Bapi a 20,000 yuan shopping card to settle the matter!"
Several male classmates gathered around.
"Yeah, Brother Qiang, Director Liu is notorious for finding fault. It's all up to him to decide whether or not to accept a diploma or credits."
"Should we call Counselor Zhou for help?"
Wang Ye picked up the canvas bag on the table, slung it over his shoulder, and slowly stood up.
He patted Zhou Xiaomeng's forehead and sneered.
"Looking for trouble?"
"It's alright. I may not be good at much else, but I'm good at dealing with all sorts of troublesome bumpkins."
"Let's go, let's go and admire Director Liu's official power."
Wang Ye strolled leisurely out of the classroom and headed straight for the third floor of the administration building.
……
The department head's office is located on the innermost side of the third floor.
The room was well heated.
Liu Dagang sat saunter in the boss's chair, his legs propped up on the edge of the mahogany desk, happily scrolling through his phone.
A knock sounded on the door, a deep, resounding knock.
"Enter."
Liu Dagang put away his phone and quickly put on a serious, unsmiling expression.
Wang Ye pushed open the door and walked in, closing it behind him.
He looked around the office, pulled out the leather swivel chair opposite his desk, and plopped down in it.
Liu Dagang's face instantly darkened.
Snapped!
Liu Dagang slammed the folder in his hand heavily onto the table.
"Wang Ye! Who told you to sit down?!"
"Don't you even know basic manners when entering a teacher's office?!"
Wang Ye leaned back in the soft chair, even shifting to a more comfortable crossed-leg position, a smile playing on his lips.
"Did Director Liu call me here to make me stand as punishment?"
"We're all adults, let's speak our minds and stop with these feudal remnants of old rules."
Liu Dagang was so speechless from this barrage of retorts that his lips twitched.
This kid is even more arrogant than the rumors say!
Liu Dagang took a deep breath, grabbed the attendance sheet on the table, and pointed to the dense red crosses on it.
"Wang Ye, don't think that just because you've become a big internet celebrity and acted for a few days, you can do whatever you want at school!"
"Let me check your attendance record!"
"Since the start of the semester, the absence rate for core professional courses has reached 70%! They haven't even been to the military training ground!"
"According to the college's rules and regulations, students who accumulate more than sixty unexcused absences will be disqualified from taking all final exams and will be expelled from the university!"
Liu Dagang's voice grew louder and louder as he spoke, spitting as he spoke.
"Even if your counselor, Zhou Muzhi, approves your leave, any leave exceeding one month requires a second approval and reporting from me, the department head!"
"Teacher Zhou granted you leave without authorization, which is a serious violation!"
"If I submit this material to the Academic Affairs Office and the Discipline Inspection Commission, not only will you be kicked out of Kede College, but Zhou Muzhi's tenure will also be completely revoked!"
After being bombarded with a barrage of accusations, an ordinary freshman would have turned pale with fright and begged for mercy in tears.
However, Wang Ye sat in the chair without even blinking.
He asked calmly, "Director Liu, are you finished?"
"You're spitting pretty far, would you like some tea to soothe your throat?"
Liu Dagang was completely stunned.
What's this kid's nerve made of?!
Expel him from school! Fire the counselor!
He's remained so calm after such a powerful weapon was unleashed!
Liu Dagang felt his authority had been challenged like never before, but remembering the true purpose of his trip, he forcibly suppressed his anger.
He coughed lightly and adopted a serious tone.
He leaned forward slightly, his eyes gleaming with greed.
"Wang Ye, I can understand the impetuousness of young people."
"You made money from filming TV dramas and became a celebrity, so it's normal for you to disregard school rules."
"However, one should know how to be grateful and how to maintain proper boundaries."
Liu Dagang lowered his voice and tapped his index finger lightly on the table.
"This matter can be a big deal or a small deal."
"If I submit a disciplinary report to the academic affairs office, not even a god can save you."
"However, considering that you have brought some external recognition to the school, as your department head, I am not an unfeeling person."
Liu Dagang picked up his teacup, took a sip, and looked Wang Ye up and down with a meaningful gaze.
"I heard that your Yangwang U8 cost two million after registration?"
"You've made quite a bit of money filming TV dramas lately, haven't you?"
"The department is currently preparing to establish a digital film and television editing laboratory, and the funding gap is about 500,000 yuan."
"In addition, I am currently applying for a national-level art research project, but I am a bit short of research funding, about 200,000 yuan in operating funds."
See you in the picture!
They hit the very top of the Tai Sui with the bamboo pole!
Liu Dagang grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, his eyes filled with certainty.
"Wang Ye, if you are willing to donate 500,000 yuan in your own name to the construction of the department's laboratory, and also support the teacher's research project."
"I'll pretend I didn't see that you skipped classes for two months."
"I guarantee you'll get an excellent score of 90 or above in all your major courses on the final exam."
"I can even reserve a spot for you as an outstanding graduate in advance."
Liu Dagang leaned back in his swivel chair, looking at Wang Ye with an air of confidence.
For a major internet celebrity with a net worth of over ten million, several hundred thousand is just a drop in the ocean.
Spending hundreds of thousands to buy peace of mind and still getting top grades—anyone who isn't stupid knows how to do this.
Sitting opposite him, Wang Ye burst out laughing after hearing this blatant extortion.
"Hahahahaha!"
Laughter echoed in the empty office, seemingly making the leaves of the pothos on the windowsill tremble.
Liu Dagang frowned, his face turning grim.
"What are you laughing at?!"
Wang Ye rubbed his cheeks, which were sore from laughing, and stood up.
He rested his hands on the edge of the mahogany desk, looking down at the short, stout Liu Dagang.
His eyes were devoid of any warmth, and a mocking smile played on his lips.
"Director Liu, you're a fucking genius."
"They've really messed with me, Wang Ye."
"Seven hundred thousand in cash, and you still want me to sponsor your research project?"
"Your appetite is bigger than the meat grinder at the Old Factory Street market."
Liu Dagang slammed his fist on the table and jumped up!
"Wang Ye! How dare you!!"
"You'll regret it if you don't listen to reason! You really think I wouldn't dare fire you?!"
"I'm calling the academic affairs office right now. If they don't expel you today, I'll change my name, Liu Dagang!!"
Liu Dagang grabbed the red landline receiver from the table, angrily preparing to dial.
Just then.
Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the office door.
Accompanied by the voices of several people.
"Dean, please slow down, Director Liu is in his office!"
"The official document from the Tianyuan Group's board of directors was just issued ten minutes ago. This is the largest strategic investment in the entire school's history, and it must be implemented immediately!"
Bang!
The heavy wooden door to the office was suddenly pushed open!
Liu Dagang, holding the phone receiver, was startled by the sudden noise.
He turned his head, about to unleash a torrent of curses at whoever dared to trespass into the department head's office.
However, when he saw the figure standing in the doorway...
Liu Dagang's hand movements froze instantly!
There was someone standing at the door.
It was none other than Zhang Jianguo, the dean of Kede College!
Dean Zhang was covered in sweat. Even at the opening ceremony, he was usually very deliberate, but now he had a button on his suit jacket that was fastened incorrectly.
Behind him followed three core executives: the director of the Academic Affairs Office, the director of the Human Resources Office, and the director of the Dean's Office!
Most of the school's highest-ranking officials were present!
Liu Dagang's expression instantly shifted from fury to obsequiousness, and he scurried out from behind the desk.
"Oh my! Dean Zhang! Why did you come all the way here in person?!"
"If you need any instructions, just give me a call on the internal line, and I'll come to your office immediately to carry them out!"
Liu Dagang greeted Wang Ye with a forced smile, but glared at him fiercely, preparing to take the opportunity to complain to the dean.
"Dean, you've come at the perfect time!"
"I am about to report to you and the Academic Affairs Office a disciplinary violation that is extremely serious in nature!"
"We have a freshman in the directing program named Wang Ye who completely disregards school rules and regulations, skipping classes without reason for two whole months. His attitude is extremely arrogant and rude!"
"I am planning to recommend to the college that the student be expelled immediately—"
Liu Dagang hadn't finished speaking.
Dean Zhang Jianguo, who rushed into the office, didn't even glance at him.
Dean Zhang's gaze swept past Liu Dagang's bald head and landed on Wang Ye, who stood calmly by the desk.
Zhang Jianguo's face lit up with joy.
next second.
Under Liu Dagang's dumbfounded gaze.
This Dean Zhang, who usually commands respect in front of the entire school, actually ran all the way to Wang Ye!
Zhang Jianguo held Wang Ye's hands tightly at his sides, his face beaming with an almost ingratiating smile.
His waist even bent slightly!
"Oh my! Mr. Wang! You're really at the school!"
"The group's board of directors just issued an appointment notice; I thought you weren't on campus today!"
"We are so sorry for not welcoming you properly! We are really sorry for not welcoming you properly, Mr. Wang!!"
Rumble—!!
A bolt from the blue suddenly exploded across the entire office!
Standing to the side, Liu Dagang's mind went completely blank at the sound of "President Wang"!
His eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets!
His mouth was so wide open it could fit an apple!
He froze on the spot, as if he had been petrified.
Wang...Wang, the school's chairman?!
Students become school board members?!
What kind of magical realism script is this?!
