Chapter 802: Shuimu University withdraws from the competition
After leaving the coffee shop, Lai Binqiang took out his mobile phone and called Wang Xing. He said in a relaxed tone, "I've got one."
Wang Xing also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The most beautiful one at the moment is Hu Jiake, but having only her is not enough. We should sign as many beautiful girls as possible. Only when there is competition can there be something interesting and topical."
"Yes, I am looking for them one by one according to the list."
A few days later, the campus network page was updated and the event promotion for the school beauty contest appeared on the campus network, which immediately sparked heated discussions.
As soon as get out of class was over that day, Zhao Kehan excitedly said to Cao Hongchang, "Did you know about the campus network's school beauty contest? The final champion can get a prize of one million!"
Cao Hongchang said expressionlessly: "I am not interested in these things. As a student, I think we should study hard and make progress every day..."
Zhao Kehan said: "Hu Jiake has also signed up for the competition."
Cao Hongchang immediately changed the subject and said, "However, only by combining work and rest can efficiency be maximized. Young people cannot just study blindly. Appropriate cultural and entertainment activities are still necessary. What is this competition about? Who will participate?"
Cao Hongchang only registered to join the campus network because Hu Jiake registered, but after his application to add Hu Jiake as a friend was rejected, he didn't play much, so he didn't know about the school beauty contest at all.
Now that I heard that Hu Jiake participated in the school beauty contest, I suddenly became interested again.
Zhao Kehan said: "The campus beauty contest aims to show the youthful vitality and positive spirit of contemporary female college students, and provide everyone with a fair stage to show themselves. Contestants can upload their beautiful photos of life at any time, and the ranking is based on user votes and likes and comments. It is divided into two parts: campus contest and university contest. The first is the campus contest where each school selects. The top three in the campus contest will enter the national university contest..."
Zhao Kehan introduced the rules to Cao Hongchang and then said, "Not only your goddess Hu Jiake is participating in the competition, but also Lu Xuechun from the School of Public Administration and Yu Jingmiao from the School of Economics and Management... This is going to be a competition among all the beauties."
Shuimu University has a total of 21 colleges, 59 departments, and 88 undergraduate majors. In each college and department, there are people who are so idle that they comment on the department's flowers and grasses, the college's flowers and grasses, and no one is willing to give in to anyone else.
Now, the campus network will directly launch a school beauty contest, and everyone can compete directly, using data to speak for themselves. No one will have any objections then.
The situation is roughly the same in other schools, which is why this school beauty contest caused such a big fuss.
Cao Hongchang quickened his pace, and Zhao Kehan quickly caught up with him and asked, "Where are you going?"
Cao Hongchang said righteously: "This campus beauty contest is related to the honor of our school. As a member of Shuimu University, I have an unshirkable responsibility. Of course, I will learn about the competition and cheer for our school's contestants."
After returning to the dormitory, Cao Hongchang quickly turned on his computer and logged into the campus network. Sure enough, he saw the news that Hu Jiake had signed up for the competition. He couldn't help but get excited and said to himself: I will be the one to protect the goddess' crown!
At this time, publicity and promotion have already begun on the homepage of the campus network.
In particular, the group photo of several gorgeously dressed girls attracted countless hungry eyes and aroused a lot of attention. The heat of the discussion was suddenly several times higher than before.
Watching the various indicators on the backend data page soaring like a rocket, Wang Xing couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder Mr. Lu said that pornography is the primary productive force. It's really a wise saying."
This one idea alone surpassed all their previous efforts, and he couldn't help but be convinced.
This amazing data made Wang Xing full of energy, and he couldn't wait to say: "Let's take advantage of this popularity and directly take down several other universities in Beijing."
Wang Huiwen approved of Wang Xing's plan and said: "One university is still too weak. We now know how to attract the attention of young college students and create hot spots. We can expand rapidly by directly developing multiple lines. We must race against time before competitors emerge."
"Yes, now is the time to race and stake out territory. We must move faster and faster. We cannot stop, otherwise when competitors emerge, we will definitely be in a tough battle."
Of course, the biggest reason for being able to implement a rapid expansion strategy is that they have the five million funds given by Lu Yiming.
Without this money, they can't move faster even if they want to.
In the following few days, Lai Binqiang, who was in charge of signing people, was exhausted, but at least he achieved great results. As many as twenty or thirty stunning beauties signed the agreement.
These are the ones that need to be promoted.
Although the slogan of the competition is "There is no threshold, just come if you are confident", there are so many ugly people in the world who are confident, and the campus network does not want to turn a good school beauty contest into a joke contest.
Therefore, sign those with good looks and promote them vigorously. When the rankings are announced, those confident ugly ones can be eliminated.
Taking the school as a unit, this campus beauty contest is a face-saving competition between departments and no one can help but take it seriously.
Those majors like civil engineering and computer science hate this competition to the core, but they still want to pull out the beauties in their department to participate in the crazy event.
However, in those departments that already have more female students, the competition is even more intense.
Before the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Cao Hongchang had already packed up his things and rushed out of the classroom.
He hasn't voted for Hu Jiake out of the ten votes today, and he hasn't written a long review for Hu Jiake either - all of these will be counted into the ranking value!
After returning to the dormitory, Cao Hongchang threw his schoolbag on the bed, turned on his computer, and began to think about how to praise Hu Jiake today, and at the same time, he was looking forward to what beautiful photos Hu Jiake would post today.
Two minutes later, the computer started up successfully and connected to the Internet. Cao Hongchang couldn't wait to open Hu Jiake's homepage.
As expected, Hu Jiake updated her photos on her homepage!
In the photo, Hu Jiake is sitting on the grass beside the school pond, looking at the lake with a sweet smile on her face. She is wearing a down jacket on her upper body, but only a plaid pleated skirt on her lower body. Her well-proportioned and slender legs are wearing black velvet stockings!
She was not wearing shoes, and the side shot angle perfectly showed off her delicate black stockings and beautiful feet.
Cao Hongchang's blood boiled and his heart surged. He licked his lips subconsciously and untied his belt with his left hand...
Just at this moment, Zhao Kehan pushed open the door and walked in.
Cao Hongchang was startled and took his left hand out immediately. He stared at the computer screen with a guilty conscience and said to himself, "Many people uploaded their new photos today..."
Zhao Kehan didn't notice any embarrassing actions from Cao Hongchang, so he asked casually, "Where's your goddess? What's her ranking now?"
Cao Hongchang then remembered that he had not yet looked at the ranking interface, so he quickly opened the competition interface and found that Hu Jiake, who had been ranked first, had dropped to second place, and his popularity value was dozens of points less than the first place.
This really pissed off Cao Hongchang, who shouted, "They are so shameless. They actually attacked and snatched away Hu Jiake's first place. This is definitely vote-rigging! This is definitely vote-rigging!"
Zhao Kehan smiled and said, "Then you can brush it too."
When Cao Hongchang heard this, he suddenly understood something: "Yes, they all rigged their votes, why shouldn't I? I'll go find someone to vote, like and comment for Hu Jiake. And you, hurry up and find someone for me!"
Zhao Kehan immediately regretted what he had just said.
"that……"
"Stop talking nonsense, are you a brother? If you are, go and canvass for votes for me."
"All right."
Such scenes are happening in countless dormitories.
Boys support their goddesses, and colleges support their department beauties...
We can’t lose. Whoever loses will be embarrassed!
Soon, other colleges and universities also got involved, and each college started its own campus beauty selection.
Relying on the school beauty contest, Wang Xing led the campus network team to make rapid progress and soon won over major universities in Beijing, even attracting the attention of the school.
Zhu Jun, director of Shuimu University's College Student Entrepreneurship and Employment Guidance Center, was staring at photos of Shuimu University's beautiful female students. They were wearing all kinds of black, white, flesh-colored stockings, miniskirts, and high heels... It was dizzying.
He was blamed for failing to recruit Lu Yiming to Shuimu University for four years. It was not until Lu Yiming graduated that he was gradually promoted and reused by the school leaders. Now he is the head of the University Student Entrepreneurship Guidance Center.
Just when Zhu Jun was about to have a nosebleed, there was a knock on the office door and a voice outside shouted, "Is Director Zhu here? It's time for a regular meeting."
Zhu Jun was so frightened that he closed the webpage in a panic, feeling his heart jumping out of his throat.
"Yes, here I come."
After taking a few deep breaths and calming himself down, Zhu Jun turned off his computer, opened the office door, and greeted the person outside: "Good morning, Director Liu. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten that today is Monday. Hey, I've been busy with senior students' entrepreneurship guidance recently, and I can hardly tell the difference between day and night."
Director Liu also smiled and said, "Director Zhu is really dedicated. But don't overwork yourself, your health is more important."
"Indeed, haha, let's go to the meeting."
The regular meeting held every Monday is a relatively important meeting of Shuimu University. The main leaders of various schools, departments and institutions of the school will attend to jointly summarize the work of the previous week and formulate a work plan for the next week.
Everyone sat down, hundreds of people gathered together, and the principal Wang Xiqing gave a speech first, and then everyone spoke freely and made suggestions on the school's work and study.
As soon as Wang Xiqing finished his speech, the president of the Academy of Fine Arts, Ma Sai, stood up. He had a look of deep pain on his face, and tapped the table with his right fist. He spoke in a deep voice, "Recently, the campus network is actually holding a school beauty selection contest. It's really outrageous. Female students are flirting on the Internet. It's really outrageous! I think it's necessary to boycott such a vulgar website!"
Campus network, this website is so confusing that the principal thought it was Shuimu University's own website, so he asked in confusion: "Is it our school's own website? When did the school open a new website? How come I don't know about this news? Who is responsible for this website?"
Shuimu University has its own forum, called Shuimu Tsinghua BBS, which is the official BBS of Shuimu University and the first BBS of the National Education Network. It was officially established on August 8, 1995 and is the most famous one among all university BBSs.
Lan Shuangcheng, the dean of the School of Computer Science, said: "The campus network is not a forum created by Shuimu, but an off-campus website. They call themselves an online community. I heard that this website was invested by Lu Yiming."
When Zhu Jun heard the three words "Lu Yiming", the corners of his eyes twitched subconsciously.
Because of this incident, he was scolded badly and suffered psychological trauma.
Ma Sai said indignantly: "So what about Lu Yiming? Is being the richest man so great? We are Shuimu University, and we must not let vulgar business practices tarnish our sacred academic hall."
Lan Shuangcheng disagreed with what Masai said.
What a sacred academic hall! How dare you, an old and disrespectful person like you, say this?
As for the others, although no one spoke out in agreement with Marcelo's proposal, no one objected either.
The main reason is that Lu Yiming has been the richest man for so many years, but he has never donated money to Shuimu University, so when Marseille called for a fight against the campus network, everyone just crossed their legs and waited to watch the show.
Wang Xiqing was of a high status and position, and was not impressed by Lu Yiming's status as the richest man. After hearing Ma Sai's serious remarks, he said, "Our Shuimu University is a serious university, and this kind of thing should indeed be controlled. How about this, Dean Ma, you take charge of this matter and see how to manage it."
Masai nodded solemnly and said, "Okay."
Soon, Shuimu University issued an announcement prohibiting students of Shuimu University from participating in the school beauty contest. All contestants must withdraw from the competition, otherwise they will be punished severely.
When this announcement came out, the whole school was shocked.
There was wailing in the boys' dormitory.
"Holy crap, Mizuki University is withdrawing from the competition? What's going on?"
"What does this bastard surnamed Ma have to do with the school beauty contest?"
"How can this bastard who lives in the Pacific Ocean care so much?"
The Academy of Fine Arts immediately became the target of boycott by all other departments. After all, Masse was the president of the Academy of Fine Arts.
The students of the Academy of Fine Arts have become the pariahs crossing the street. They are pointed at and talked about whenever they walk around the academy, which makes them feel extremely depressed.
In fact, they also want to fuck Marcela's grandmother. The Academy of Fine Arts has no shortage of beauties, and it is ranked among the top few, so it is very competitive. Now that Marcela has done this, the entire Academy of Fine Arts is despised by other departments.
In the dormitory, Hu Jiake, who had just been called by Ma Sai for a talk, looked helpless. Ji Ziqian said indignantly: "Other schools are participating in the competition, but Dean Ma actually doesn't allow Shuimu University to participate. We are going to be laughed at by other universities this time. Why is this guy calling for a fight against the campus network? He is just like a mad dog, it's inexplicable."
A roommate sitting at the head of the bed said slowly, "What's so strange about this? I heard that his favorite student also participated in the competition, but she didn't even make it through the audition and was directly rejected by the campus network. They also said that this school beauty pageant is a beauty pageant, not an ugliness contest. It's really not okay if you can't even open your eyes."
Ji Ziqian snorted and said, "There's something wrong with those models over there. They all have round faces and are blind. Are they born with visual impairments? Can't they do something earthly?"
My roommate said, “I really can’t appreciate that kind of beauty.”
Ji Ziqian suddenly reached out and hooked Hu Jiake's chin, and said with a sigh: "Miss Hu is really beautiful. Her face is so tender that I can't help but kiss her twice."
Hu Jiake slapped her hand away as she tried to make fun of him: "You, you keep thinking about these things all day long. You are hopeless, do you know that?"
The news that Shuimu University banned students from participating in the school beauty contest quickly spread to the campus network. Wang Xing looked at the notice from Shuimu University with a confused look on his face.
The campus network first started from Shuimu University, but while other schools were doing fine, my alma mater started to cause trouble?
Just when Wang Xing was about to find someone to ask about the situation, Lu Yiming called.
"Old Wang, how is the beauty pageant going? Are the various statistics rising rapidly?"
Wang Xing said gloomily: "The data has increased quite well, but there is a small accident now."
Lu Yiming frowned slightly and asked, "What's the accident?"
Wang Xing said: "Shuimu University issued a notice prohibiting Shuimu University students from participating in the competition. All participating students must withdraw from the competition."
"Huh? There's such a thing?"
Lu Yiming also felt a little unbelievable: "Have you talked to the school? What's going on?"
Wang Xing frowned: "We go talk to the school? We are just making products..."
Lu Yiming was helpless. At this time, Wang Xing was still the stubborn boy who had not been beaten by the society. He seemed a little immature. He was completely different from the ruthless and black-hearted capitalist who used algorithms to force employees to run red lights more than ten years later.
But after all, he was just a tool working for him, so Lu Yiming had to continue to point out a way for Wang Xing: "You graduated from Shuimu University. With your status, go to Shuimu University's leaders and cry a few times. You are a student of Shuimu University, but Shuimu University personally killed your entrepreneurial project. Is this reasonable?"
Wang Xing was shocked: "Is this possible?"
Obviously, he was a little embarrassed. After all, he was 25 years old, and would be thirty in two years. How could he go to the "teacher" and complain to him at this age?
But Lu Yiming didn't care about that. He wasn't the one who was embarrassed. He said to Wang Xing directly: "The broad road is in front of you. It's up to you to take it or not. I'm not in a hurry anyway. You will have a chance to get paid only if the campus network achieves results."
It has to be said that it was from Lu Yiming that Wang Xing felt for the first time what a black-hearted capitalist was.
After hanging up the call, Wang Xing called Wang Huiwen over, told him about this matter, and then looked at him with a bitter face.
As friends for so many years, and even brothers who shared upper and lower bunks back then, Wang Huiwen immediately understood the meaning in Wang Xing's eyes.
"Okay, I'll go with you, okay?"
