"Principal Ding is so generous!"
"Awarding each person 300,000 yuan, I’m envious."
"That’s the benefit of private universities. If the principal is generous, the prize money could be substantial. In public universities, this would likely amount to just a few thousand yuan."
"Not necessarily, public universities might not give any prize money at all, just a certificate of recognition."
"Ha ha ha, I checked online and the grand prize of the ACM National College Student Programming Contest is $100,000."
"$100,000? That’s over 600,000 yuan."
"After deducting taxes, each of Chen Jun’s team can receive tens of thousands yuan, plus the 300,000 yuan award from Principal Ding, they’re going to be rich."
The computer science students in the auditorium, having seen Principal Ding personally award the prize money to Chen Jun’s team, couldn’t help discussing and showing their envy.
Each student fantasized that they could be Chen Jun or Ouyang Chen.
The allure of hundreds of thousands yuan in prize money was quite significant.
"Principal Ding’s strong encouragent and rewards for our computer science award-winning students shows that he firmly supports our departnt."
"Didn’t you know? Principal Ding has invested a lot in our computer science departnt in terms of educational expenses."
"Doesn’t that an that our Computer Science Departnt will be a key focus of developnt for our school in the future?"
"That’s inevitable."
"The future looks promising. I should continue to work hard to achieve good results in school so that when I graduate, I can find a satisfying job."
This ACM International College Student Programming Competition award ceremony, just as Ding Yue had expected, had a motivating effect on the students of the computer science departnt.
Ding Yue guessed that the motivational effect was even greater.
Internally, it could motivate the students of the Computer Departnt to continue to strive ceaselessly in their future studies and life.
Externally, it could inspire other departnts to pick up their pace.
If Mist City Arts and Science University aspires to beco a globally top-ranking comprehensive institution, every departnt needs to have a strong capability.
As it stands, many departnts of Mist City Arts and Science University are still "ordinary".
As the Principal, Ding Yue still needs to invest so thought and energy into exploring the potential of other departnts at Mist City Arts and Science University.
On the stage, Ding Yue awarded the three cash prizes to Xu Bin, Chen Jun and Ouyang Chen.
The auditorium suddenly erupted into warm applause.
After Xu Bin and the others bowed in appreciation, they took their prize money and dals and left the stage.
Seizing this opportunity, Ding Yue prepared to deliver a few remarks to encourage the computer science students. He also used the [Computer Departnt Scholastic Card] prop.
"Dear students and teachers, even though our Computer Science Departnt is very young, it is because of the efforts of every teacher and student, that we are in the flourishing situation we have today."
Ding Yue had used a [Deep into the Heart] prop card for his speech, which he had exchanged for 5 reputation points in the system store.
The effect of the card was that Ding Yue’s words would deeply resonate with the group. It was an excellent tool to use during motivational speeches.
In addition to the [Deep into the Heart] Prop Card, Ding Yue also used the [Computer Departnt Scholastic Card].
Ding!
"The host successfully used the [Computer Departnt Scholastic Card]....."
Accompanied by a prompt in his mind, a silvery light appeared to cloak the entire auditorium, falling upon every computer science teacher and student present on the stage.
"Here, I have good news to share with everyone. Director Xiao Wenxing of the Education Departnt told today that our Computer Science Departnt at Mist City Arts and Science University is slated to apply for National Key Disciplines."
Ding Yue announced this news shared by Director Xiao Wenxing earlier that day.
Without a doubt, this news would serve as a strong stimulant, inspiring the computer science students to strive forward.
Upon hearing Ding Yue’s words, the teachers and students of the Computer Science Departnt were filled with astonishnt and excitent.
"Apply for National Key Disciplines?"
"Wow! That’s impressive, National Key Disciplines!"
"If the application is approved, will our Computer Science Departnt at Mist City Arts and Science University beco a national key discipline?"
"That’s aweso, my major!"
"We have the opportunity to apply for National Key Disciplines so soon. It’s clear that our Computer Science Departnt is truly strong."
"What did you think? Did you assu that the championship of the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest was handed to us easily?"
Seeing the passion and fighting spirit of the students below, Ding Yue was very satisfied.
After the successful conclusion of the award ceremony, in less than a day, news spread to every departnt of the Mist City Arts and Science University.
All the teachers and students knew that Principal Ding had held an award ceremony to comnd the Computer Science Departnt and awarded each of them 300,000 yuan.
Liu Wei, the head of the Computer Science Departnt, received all kinds of praise from his colleagues these past few days.
However,
Other departnt heads also wanted to achieve glory for their schools and beco a departnt that Principal Ding highly values, just like the Computer Science Departnt.
But earning Principal Ding’s high regard isn’t easy.
First and foremost, the departnt would need outstanding teaching achievents and excellent students. If not, the principal wouldn’t easily place their emphasis on them.
