Chapter 643 Relatives of School Leaders
Seeing that we were skeptical, Qin Shi continued, "Also, the so-called Norwegian forest is full of bare branches, just like in a horror movie.
After returning home, my cousin headed straight for Nanjing Road in S City and spent the entire day squatting on the roadside, doing nothing but people-watching. He said seeing the streets full of people finally made him feel at ease, like he'd returned to the human world.
Finally, she added, "I don't know how bad the food is over there, but my cousin is such a picky eater, and now he can eat four steamed buns if I give him a plate of pickles."
Everything else is fine, but the mention of food really makes us feel discouraged.
I weakly added a fact, "Just a reminder, the aurora viewing will be after September, so the prize will probably be redeemed in July."
Huang Tianyi suddenly had an idea, "Why not go to New Zealand? In July, you can see the aurora borealis and soak in hot springs in New Zealand. You can also see super cute little blue penguins and kiwis there.
The food there is also good, at least there is a lot of seafood, and the beef and mutton are of good quality. What do you think?"
We looked at each other and after hearing what she said, it seemed that New Zealand was indeed the most suitable choice.
I was afraid that continuing the discussion would make it even harder to reach a consensus, so I quickly said, "Okay, that's great. I'll count to three. If there's no reasonable objection, we'll go to New Zealand. One, two, three, end of discussion."
I made the decision decisively.
So, without even knowing the content of the competition, we had already customized the prizes we wanted.
I called Xiao Shiqiu again and told him about our difficult decision-making process: "We've made up our minds and want to travel to New Zealand. Is that okay with you?"
"Okay, just confirm it. I'll tell the marketing department, but once it's announced, it can't be changed."
"No, I promise not to change it. You don't know how hard it is to reach a consensus."
But what I didn’t expect was that the distance between us and New Zealand was not just about winning the game, but about having the opportunity to participate in the game in the first place.
On the third day after we had chosen the prizes for ourselves, Ren Qiongying brought back some bad news from the Student Union. After discussion between the school leaders and department heads, they believed that third-year students would be more suitable to participate in this program.
"My fellow villager told me that the superficial reason is that juniors have a relatively good command of their majors and don't need to prepare for graduation like us seniors.
Actually, it was because there was a girl in my junior year who was a relative of a school leader, but I didn’t find out which leader she was related to.”
I asked her, "Do you know which girl it is?"
She shook her head. "These are just rumors. They've never been made public, so my fellow villagers don't know either."
Su Rina was a little indignant. "This is too much! This is obviously relying on connections to get in through the back door! How can the school allow such a thing to happen?"
Pang Xiaomin reminded him weakly, "Were we able to participate in this program by relying on connections? We even customized the prizes ourselves."
Su Rina was still unconvinced and said, "How can it be the same? We are not relatives of the production team."
Ren Qiongying was a little anxious. "Don't worry about the relationship for now. Think of a solution. Otherwise, all the work will be in vain. You will just be helping others get married in vain."
"Can't Ling Xiuzhi just invite us to the show directly?" Huang Tianyi was a little impatient with this roundabout approach.
Qin Shi was more reasonable: "The show uses competitions between schools as a gimmick. If invitations are extended directly to individuals, then they cannot be in the name of the school, but only in the name of the individual. This clearly does not conform to the program's principles."
