The next day.
Almost all the students on campus had learned of the very first bachelor’s degree conferred by the university.
No doubt.
Everyone also knew that the person who earned this bachelor’s degree in just one academic year was none other than their Principal Ding.
Since Principal Ding was around the sa age as them, he surely must pursue higher education too.
Hence, Principal Ding typically had two identities at Mist City Arts and Science University: A principal, and a student.
Now.
The student identity of Principal Ding was officially ended.
Principal Ding’s scholarly na imdiately spread among the students.
On the university’s official forum ——
[Principal Ding is truly aweso! He showed us the results of diligent studying through his action!]
[Graduated at light speed! Principal Ding is indeed a role model for us!]
[When can I graduate ahead of schedule like Principal Ding?]
[Honestly, as long as you study hard, I feel there should be other top students in our school who can graduate early, right?]
[Oh, in the beginning, I thought you all were academic failures like , who got left behind in the college entrance examination. Never thought you were actually hidden scholars!]
[No kidding, Principal Ding is truly aweso! His professional level is probably even higher than regular graduate students of physics.]
[Certainly! Rember, Principal Ding’s graduation thesis was approved by a few professors from Jiangnan University of Science and Technology!]
All over the student discussion groups of Mist City Arts and Science University, the topic of Principal Ding receiving the first bachelor’s degree of the University was being discussed.
Thanks to past experiences and lessons, this news pretty much circulated only within the student population of Mist City Arts and Science University.
Moreover, after the last ti when Principal Ding was questioned and trended, everybody ca to know that the graduation thesis of Principal Ding of Mist City Arts and Science University was genuinely valid. So this ti when Principal Ding received his graduation certificate, nobody dared to question it.
After all, if he was capable of writing a graduation thesis that was approved by the Physics Departnt of Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, effortlessly finishing the college-level physics curriculum in four years was definitely not an issue.
Even if soone wanted to tarnish him, they would have nowhere to start!
In the morning.
Since Ding Yue had completed his graduation process and the Big White experint project was going smoothly,
he suddenly found himself with so free ti.
So.
Ding Yue, accompanied by his secretary Wen Ruohan and Director Chen Ping of the Architecture Departnt, visited the construction site to the west of the Mist City Arts and Science University.
The workers from the Tianfu Construction Group were busy at the site, with various pieces of construction equipnt continuously operating.
Far away, the outer fra of the new library [Bookship] of Mist City Arts and Science University was basically structured.
Since the construction started in January and five months had passed, plus the [Bookship] library was a major project costing 150 million yuan, the construction speed was pretty fast.
This also owed a lot to the efficiency of the Tianfu Construction Group.
Ding Yue had to admit, the company was pretty good. He thought to himself, once his Feiyue Group establishes the Feiyue Construction Company, it would definitely compete with companies like the Tianfu Construction Group, after hiring talents from his university’s architecture departnt.
The question was whether they could compete or not.
"Principal Ding, our [Bookship] project is expected to be capped by the end of May, then the interior construction can begin in June, and by mid-August, it should be successfully completed."
Director Chen Ping from the Departnt of Architecture briefed Ding Yue about the construction progress of the [Bookship].
As the project manager appointed by Ding Yue for the school, Chen Ping knew the situation on the site very well.
"Are those our students over there?"
Ding Yue saw a group of young n not far away, who were using asurent equipnt and wearing hard hats, performing asurent tasks near the construction site.
"Yes, yes, they are our students. For our Departnt of Architecture, this place is the perfect practical training ground!"
Director Chen Ping confird.
The Building Departnt of Mist City Arts and Science University used the construction site as a practical training base for many of its major projects and the results were quite good.
Ding Yue looked in another direction, where another series of buildings had been partially constructed. A considerable portion of a few high-rises had been built already and various crane equipnt was operating in an orderly manner.
"Director Chen, it’s the dormitory apartnt buildings over there, right? They can be finished on ti too, can’t they?" Ding Yue pointed to those buildings and asked.
Chen Ping imdiately nodded, and replied: "Rest assured, Principal Ding. The Tianfu Construction Group is working according to the plan, our dormitory apartnt buildings will also be completed by the end of August."
"That’s good."
Ding Yue said with satisfaction.
Just then.
Ding Yue noticed a young man on the construction site not far away.
He was over one ter ninety tall, and by his height, Ding Yue knew who he was.
During the winter vacation, a sports student nad Yang Chen ca to Ding Yue and said he wanted to work on the construction site to make money.
Seeing as Yang Chen did indeed need money, Ding Yue thought it over and agreed.
The student Ding Yue is looking at now is Yang Chen.
"Yang Chen!"
Ding Yue called out the student’s na.
Yang Chen turned around upon hearing a sowhat familiar voice calling his na, and spotted Principal Ding in the distance.
Upon seeing Principal Ding, Yang Chen quickly trotted over: "Principal Ding, what brings you here?"
"I ca to check the progress of the construction, and then saw you. Don’t you have class today?" Ding Yue laughed and asked.
"No, no class today, so I ca to work. Thank you, Principal Ding." Yang Chen nodded and thanked Principal Ding once again.
It was thanks to Principal Ding reaching out to the construction site that he could easily spend his spare ti moving bricks and doing odd jobs.
While doing manual labor was tiring, it could still earn him so money by the end of the day.
Besides attending classes and necessary training, Yang Chen usually spent whatever spare ti he had working on the construction site.
While others were playing gas, Yang Chen was working.
While others were dating, Yang Chen was still working to make money.
You have to say, Ding Yue admired this stalwart young man for his diligence. It wasn’t easy.
Suddenly, Ding Yue seed to rember sothing and asked Yang Chen: "Students like you who are financially disadvantaged receive aid from the school, did you get it?"
Regarding scholarships and grants, Ding Yue had instructed Dean Qi Chunsheng to make sure they were properly implented.
Since Yang Chen had chosen to work at a construction site due to financial hardships, asking him about financial aid is a good way to verify if it is reaching the genuinely needy students.
"Yep."
Yang Chen nodded and replied with a hint of a smile: "Principal Ding, I received the scholarship. I’m grateful for the scholarship, and I even got a rit-based scholarship. There are so many scholarships in our school, I got 15,000 yuan, I sent all of it back ho."
Seeing Yang Chen so happy, Ding Yue also felt gratified.
Poor students as honest as Yang Chen deserves strong support from the school. Not to ntion that he even managed to get a rit-based scholarship, it ans that Yang Chen is among the top students in the College of Sports.
After all, the 15,000 yuan scholarship from Mist City Arts and Science University is not that easy to get.
It must either the top few students in a large major or the top few in a smaller departnt, since the scholarship quota is limited.
rit scholarship, rit scholarship.
It’s an award of funds to students who excel acadically.
A student as ritorious and virtuous as Yang Chen should rightfully receive nearly 20,000 yuan in scholarships and grants.
"Very good, keep up the hard work next sester. As long as you maintain good academic performance, you are sure to get a scholarship every year. The school is very fair and impartial in this regard!"
Ding Yue walked up and gently patted Yang Chen’s arm as he spoke.
Originally, Ding Yue intended to pat Yang Chen’s shoulder.
Damn it!
But considering Yang Chen’s towering height, Ding Yue could only reach his shoulder on tiptoe, so he ended up patting Yang Chen’s arm instead.
"Yes, Principal Ding, I will definitely work hard. By the way, Principal Ding, our school basketball team has won several gas against other schools this sester. Also, I joined the school’s short-distance track team which might compete in the National University Sports Gas. I want to give it a try."
Yang Chen took this opportunity to speak to Principal Ding about the condition of the school’s basketball team.
And his own plans.
The National University Sports Gas, also known as University Gas, are quite prestigious.
"The University Gas, not bad. Are you good in short-distance running?" Ding Yue curiously asked.
Looking at Yang Chen, this tall figure, wouldn’t he be slow when he runs?
After all, Ding Yue felt that those who run fast are usually not very tall.
But, you never know with sprints.
After all, it’s about explosiveness, and Yang Chen is quite muscular, so he must be quite explosive!
"I guess I’m just okay. Last ti our College of Sports held a trial, I ca second. But I feel that I did not give my best in that."
Yang Chen sighed regretfully.
"Impressive! Excellent in both basketball and short-distance running, you are indeed a talent!" Ding Yue praised.
Director Chen Ping, who was standing behind Ding Yue, also nodded in agreent.
As for Wen Ruohan, she had to always crane her neck to look at Yang Chen.
Because for Wen Ruohan, who was a little over 1.6 ters tall, he was just too tall for her!
Maybe he’s from the north?
Becacuse, Wen Ruohan felt, northerners generally tend to be taller and bulkier than southerners.
