Not long after I left the art academy building, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class.

As the four Lin sisters emerged from the School of Economics and Management building, they immediately spotted Jiang Xia waiting quietly at their usual spot.

"Hehehe, my dear boss, the rest of us are heading to the company now. You and the boss can chat in the back~"

With a chuckle, Cui Jiaying grabbed Qiu Ting and Si Si, and rode her bicycle toward the company.

Watching her roommates leave, Lin Yanwan looked slightly helpless and walked up to Jiang Xia, asking softly, "What did the teacher say?"

"What else can I say? I told Lao Zeng about starting a company, and he's probably thrilled right now. From now on, I won't even need to ask for leave if I skip class; I can just tell him." Jiang Xia said with a smile.

This world has never been fair. What's wrong with him having some privileges as the boss of a big company?

"If I had such an outstanding student, I'd probably be laughing in my sleep." Lin Yanwan chuckled. "Did he initially think you were bragging?"

“Isn’t this obvious? If this happened to our parents, they wouldn’t have believed it at first either. But your husband is so capable, isn’t he? Mrs. Jiang, right?” Jiang Xia blinked.

Seeing his smug look, Lin Yanwan said irritably, "Yes, yes, my husband is really amazing. He makes you so proud of yourself, you're practically sticking your butt out in the air."

"It's you who sticks your butt out in the air, not me. That just means I'm better in bed." Jiang Xia leaned close to her ear, his voice carrying a hint of heat, gently tickling her sensitive ear.

"Pooh!"

Lin Yanwan blushed and pushed him away forcefully, knowing there were so many people watching outside.

Tonight, let him see what it means to be a cow that only dies from exhaustion!

If we don't curb his arrogance, he'll get too big for his britches.

She sat on the back of the bicycle, and Jiang Xia slowly started pedaling. He whispered, "Honey, should I go and get my driver's license sometime?"

Now, their relationship makes riding bicycles inconvenient at times, especially since they miss out on a lot of fun. If they had their own car, they could close the windows and not see what was happening inside.

Unless the car vibrates.

Do you have that time right now?

Lin Yanwan was very skeptical. This guy was busy to death every day, and taking the driving test took up a lot of his time. Where would he find the time?

"I'll find a driving school when I have some free time and ask if I can take the exam directly," Jiang Xia said.

He only hoped that at this point in time, the traffic management office in the capital was not as strict in its review of driver's licenses as it would be in later years. If all else failed, he would pay someone to help him accumulate driving hours, and he would only be responsible for taking the driver's license test.

In his previous life, his driving skills were personally taught by Jiang Wende, and they were quite good. Even though he hadn't driven for quite some time, he was confident that he could easily pass the driving test.

In fact, for people like him who are retaking their driver's license test, the driving range and road test are usually not a big problem. The difficulty lies in the driver's theory test (subject one) and the driving test (subject four).

However, Jiang Xia's memory is exceptional after his rebirth, so the theoretical questions are actually the easiest. He just needs to cram some questions before the exam, and he can pass with ease.

"Well, if you can take the test, then go for it. It's good to have a car now," Lin Yanwan said.

Otherwise, you'd have to ride a bicycle everywhere, which would be a waste of time and exhausting. In the summer, you'd be exposed to the scorching sun, and in the winter, the cold wind would sting your face.

"Baby, what price range do you think we should buy a car in?" Jiang Xia asked with a smile.

With his current financial resources, he can afford any car he wants.

That's one of the advantages of having money: you don't have to worry too much about the price when buying things; as long as it's reasonable, that's fine.

"Buy a cheap one, just something that can get you around. If you get an expensive one, don't you just want to stand out even more?"

Lin Yanwan wrapped her arms around his waist. Just then, a Volkswagen drove by. The driver looked very young and was probably a student at the school.

There are many wealthy second-generation students at Tsinghua University, so cars are not a rare sight.

"Hmm...that's what I was thinking too. Let's buy one for commuting first, and then change it later."

"Um."

"By the way, do you have a voice-over task for Haruko today?"

"Yes, the voice acting for the others in episode fourteen is basically done. Now it's just me who's left. Teacher Meng is waiting for me."

"Then let's go quickly."

Jiang Xia quickened his pedaling pace, and the two chatted all the way to the company building. There, they saw Qiu Ting and the others' locked bicycles, indicating that they must have arrived earlier.

After taking the elevator to the fifteenth floor, the two went about their own business. Jiang Xia first wandered around the various offices to inquire about the latest progress of the project team before returning to his own office to continue creating storyboards for Slam Dunk.

Occasionally, when an idea for a Tom and Jerry movie flashes through his mind, he immediately jotts down the script.

He estimated that he would finish writing the entire script for the feature film in fits and starts around June of this year. He would then spend another six months polishing the film's visual quality, which should be just in time for the Spring Festival release this year.

The theme of the feature film is also very clear: to create a Chinese zodiac series that takes my country's ancient folk culture as its core and combines it with the animation style of Tom and Jerry.

His idea was also inspired by the Chinese zodiac series of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf from his previous life, because he was very clear about the status of the twelve zodiac animals in people's hearts.

The reason why "The Legend of the Ox" became a huge hit, raking in nearly 90 million yuan at the box office in 2009, was not only because of the extremely high quality of the animation itself, but also because the content of the animation was in line with the Year of the Ox that year. With the support of the Spring Festival film season, the box office was destined to be a big hit.

Therefore, Jiang Xia also plans to recreate this record with a cat and mouse game.

If we follow the pace of filming one Tom and Jerry zodiac-themed movie per year, it would take a full twelve years. During this time, the Tom and Jerry TV series would also have to be updated continuously.

Jiang Xia wants to make Tom and Jerry a milestone in the history of world animation, a true masterpiece of animation.

Later that evening, the tutor, Zeng Yifei, posted a message in the class group saying that there would be a class meeting that night.

Besides Jiang Xia, Su Qing and Luo Peng also attended. The main theme of this class meeting, in addition to discussing important points for the new semester, was—

He wrote on the blackboard with a pencil: "Re-elect class monitor for the new semester."

Song Qingshu was doing a good job as class monitor, but when he saw that Jiang Xia was not there, he thought that the teacher would definitely give him a severe warning and ridicule in front of the whole class.

As a result, he didn't mention a word about Jiang Xia's frequent absences from class. The class monitor position that he had worked so hard to obtain last semester now had to be re-elected, which made him feel terrible.

He looked at his mentor with disbelief.

no……

Teacher Zeng, are you sure you haven't made a mistake somewhere? (End of Chapter)
