Feng Yiping knew that Bao Zhuoyuan was very busy this month, because the manuscript for the February issue was also under intense preparation. This ti, he handed in the one article for the serialization, and let go of all the others, putting the entire burden on Bao Zhuoyuan's shoulders.
Of course, Feng Yiping had considered assigning them such extra work. Given the overall situation, which was not very optimistic, he knew that he had to keep all the staff spinning like tops, so that they would not have ti or energy to daydream. It would not be good for them to just sit around all day and collect a salary; they would only beco more and more slack and lose confidence.
At this point, everyone was actually busy. Even the senior students, who were usually so carefree, had beco busy and tense these days. The seats in the study rooms and libraries were the most sought-after at this ti.
In the dormitory, the ti for bedside chats has also beco shorter, and there are fewer people sleeping in. Self-awareness and self-discipline have returned to everyone automatically during this month before the exam.
Feng Yiping walked up to the dormitory building for the first ti in a long ti, and Yan Zhida happened to be coming down. It was rare for him to take the initiative to say hello to Feng Yiping, and what was even rarer was that the condescending feeling in his words had been completely put away. 'Yiping is here,'
In recent days, whenever he t a classmate, the attitude of the latter had also changed, just like Yan Zhida's. This was the aftermath of the words he had spoken in class that day. Fortunately, even the university was no longer aloof, and from professors to students, no one was ashad to talk about money.
'Going out?'
'Yes, to the library,'
'Sir, you've finally co!' Liang Yonggao ca up to him as soon as he reached the door. Feng Yiping entered the room, forced a smile, a really forced smile, and at this mont, he wished he had caught a bad cold.
The heating was strong, and it was estimated that the windows had not been opened much for ventilation. The collective dormitory where five young n in their twenties lived had a rather... complex sll.
'Yiping, how's your revision going?' Jin Bao asked him.
Jin Bao seed to have lost weight since they last t. Lu Wenqing's eyes were bloodshot, and it didn't take much to guess that he had been cramming.
'Not bad, I don't think I'll fail any subjects.'
This was the honest truth. In the previous few months, the company's affairs had taken up a lot of his ti, and he didn't dare boast about how well he would do in the exams.
'As long as you don't fail any subjects!' Han Guiliang's hair was a little ssy, unlike his usual ticulous appearance.
'Brother Wu, Mr. Kuan, Boss Feng, you've co at the right ti,' Liang Yonggao looked at Feng Yiping very warmly, calling him by three different nas.
'Classmate Liang Yonggao, just say what you want to say, don't look at like that, I'm a real man,' Feng Yiping put his hands on his chest, leaning sideways to avoid Liang Yonggao's burning gaze.
As for what he wanted to say, Feng Yiping could probably guess. He was being polite, so he must want sothing!
Sure enough, Jinbao said, 'This Yonggao kid has found a girlfriend at the Academy of Fine Arts, and he's already made contact. Before the exam, we'll organise a get-together at his girlfriend's dormitory,'
'This is a big event, we can't let it bring Tsinghua into disrepute. We need to go sowhere nice. You guys think about it. It doesn't matter if it's far away. I'll drive. It's the end of the year, and the end of the month. I guess we're all a bit short of cash. I'll pay for the expenses.'
He gave Liang Yonggao a thumbs-up, 'Classmate Liang, you're the man!'
Tsinghua University.
It should be noted that Tsinghua did not have an art school before. On November 20th last year, the forr Central Academy of Arts and Crafts was rged into Tsinghua University and renad the Academy of Arts and Design of Tsinghua University.
The newly established Academy of Arts is not far from their School of Economics and Managent. These days, quite a few students from their School of Economics and Managent also go there to hang out when they are free. I heard that the girls at the Academy of Arts have a really special aura. They all hope to et one, but unexpectedly, Liang Yonggao got one so quickly.
'Brother Liang, please share your experience with us!' Feng Yiping sat down next to him and called Liang Yonggao "brother".
'I have the six-character mantra, listen carefully and rember it: be bold, ticulous and thick-skinned!'
Han Guiliang imdiately threw a pillow at him, 'Do you know how to count? It's seven characters!'
'Yiping, it's not right for you to pay for everything. How about this, we'll chip in first and you pay the rest if there's a shortfall, okay?' Han Guiliang said.
'Yes, Guiliang is right. Let's chip in first, and at most we'll ask you for a loan if we don't have enough for the bus fare ho,' Jin Bao said.
'That's fine. As I said, we can't let these new sisters in our big family look down on us. Find a better place,'
Feng Yiping emphasised again, and he felt that he had a clue about sothing. What was it?
Walking out of the dormitory building and feeling the cold wind, he rembered that it would be a good investnt to collect so of the works of these students from the Academy of Fine Arts while they were still at school.
Later, he read on the news that there was soone in China who specialised in doing just that. He spent all day wandering around the eight or nine major art academies in the country, buying back paintings he saw that were good and had potential at very low prices.
Although it was rare to co across the works of future famous painters, those works, after being put aside for a few years, would still rise in value nicely when the initial students graduated and beca famous.
How about letting Huang Jingping do this business?
This is also a downside of rebirth. It feels like there are so many businesses to do, but having too many options can sotis be a nuisance.
He had just arrived at the company office when Jin Ling walked in and handed him a card. 'This is all the savings I can move right now, so I saved while studying abroad and so I earned. Together, it's 320,000 US dollars. Add in the 200,000 my father lent , and it's all yours.'
Feng Yiping closed the office door, 'You've thought about it so quickly?'
'I have, and I'll trust you this once. But let tell you, my father used his connections to get the 200,000 US dollars out of most of his savings. My 300,000 US dollars is my dowry. It's fine if I earn less, but if I lose it,'
'That's a real possibility. Why don't you take it back and give it to when you've thought about it?' Feng Yiping said with a smile.
Jin Ling looked at him with so struggle. 'You better keep it. I haven't slept well for a few nights, and it was hard for to make up my mind.'
'Don't worry, even if I lose it, I will definitely prepare a generous dowry for you on the day you get married.'
'Don't be rude. Who asked you to prepare a dowry? Just put it away. The teleconference will start soon.'
Today's teleconference is mainly about safety. The period approaching the end of the lunar year is a high-risk period for thefts and robberies. A notice was previously issued in the na of the group, but Feng Yiping felt that it was not enough and wanted to emphasise it again.
On the phone, Jin Ling talked to the participants about property safety and personal safety, emphasising that, especially in convenience stores, male employees should be arranged to work night shifts as much as possible.
When going out during breaks, they should also be more safety-conscious. If they really encounter a robbery, they must put their own safety first and if there is no other way, they should just lose their belongings.
Feng Yiping emphasised that if the convenience store or other companies encounter dishonest people who steal things, they must remain calm and call the police first. They must not beat people up on their own initiative. This is an iron law, and the company will definitely not tolerate violations.
Unlike before when petty fights were commonplace, the security departnt has now been set up. For example, in the provincial capital, the security personnel of various companies are arranged in a unified manner, and there are duty personnel on duty every day. If soone causes trouble in a store or company, after receiving the notification, the first thing that will happen is that six security guards will rush to the scene.
No one has any sympathy for thieves, whether they are employees or security guards. However, there have been cases where people have lost their lives after being caught stealing and the security guards have lost control of themselves. Feng Yiping doesn't want to get into such trouble.
