Chapter 206 206
Cui Yujie went to the counselor’s office with trepidation all the way. The resentment she had when she couldn’t find Jiang Xi at the sports meet and the hatred and disgust she had felt when she almost broke her legs while running, all turned into guilt and trepidation at this moment.
The door of the counselor's office is always open. Cui Yujie came to the door of the counselor's office and carefully stuck her head out. When she saw Jiang Wei sitting inside, even though she had prepared herself mentally, her heart still skipped a beat. Her voice, which was usually full of energy, was now light and timid: "Counselor, what is the matter with you calling me over?"
The counselor had finished his meal and washed the dishes. Seeing Cui Yujie's expression, he couldn't help feeling annoyed. This was such a stupid thing that did not do her any good, but still made her hate others. He didn't know why this school girl did this.
He said, "This time I came here to talk about the problem that Jiang Xi did not participate in the sports event she registered for without reason during the sports meet."
Cui Yujie immediately said, "Then just punish her as you should."
The counselor was almost laughing at Cui Yujie's anger and said, "But Jiang Xi said she didn't know she was registered."
"How is that possible?" Cui Yujie said loudly, and then looked at Jiang Xi: "You registered yourself, how could you not know?"
Jiang Xi's face was not smiling at all, and her face turned cold. She asked her, "I heard from the counselor and the class monitor that you are in charge of the registration of girls for the sports meet. So, I registered with you?"
Cui Yujie said loudly with a guilty conscience, "Of course! It wasn't you who registered with me, Why do I have your name here? Jiang Ning said: "
Then please tell me in detail when and where I told you about the registration." "
"Just... just..." Cui Yujie's eyes rolled around, trying to give a specific time and place.
Of course she could make it up randomly, but she could get into Beijing University even though she was a native of the capital and had a high admission rate. It would have taken thousands of people to cross the single-plank bridge. Her IQ was not bad, but her mind was. She's just immature, so she fully knows that even if she lies about a time and place, it can be easily exposed, because she knows what she did at what time and place. She doesn't know about Jiang Ning. What if there is another witness around Jiang Ning at the time and place she mentioned?
Even if she said that she was in a public place like the cafeteria or the dormitory building, there might be time witnesses on Jiang Xi's side, or she was following Liu Yan, and they knew her time route.
Moreover, she saw Jiang Xi at the Wanhua Film Festival. Although she had never participated in the Wanhua Film Festival, she knew from Shen Xinlan that those who could walk the red carpet and go to the Wanhua Film Festival had invitation letters.
Large film festivals like the Wanhua Film Festival usually send out invitation letters to the crews and individuals who want to participate in the film festival one or two months in advance.
It was just such a coincidence that the time of their Beijing University sports meet and the Wanhua Film Festival overlapped. Jiang Xi knew that it was impossible to sign up for so many sports meet events under the premise that she had already received the invitation of the Wanhua Film Festival in advance by taking out her invitation letter.
She knew she had no way to defend herself and stammered, but instead turned the tables and said righteously, "Everyone has to participate in the sports meet, but you're nowhere to be seen all day long, so was it wrong for me to sign you up? Who told you not to be in the class? I couldn't find you, so how would I know which event you were going to sign up for? I only signed you up for the running event because I saw you go out for a run every morning. The other events have already been taken!"
The more she spoke, the more she felt that this was the truth, and her originally guilty look suddenly turned into a righteous one.
Jiang Xi was almost laughing at her, and said to the instructor: "I remember that the sports meeting is voluntary, right?" Then he looked at Cui Yujie, "I'm not in the class, but we are in the same dormitory. I go back to the dormitory every night. It's been such a long time, and you signed me up, but you didn't even tell me about it?"
Cui Yujie stiffened her neck and said: "Who would remember you every day? I have so many things to do and I'm so busy!"
Jiang Xi was very angry. The counselor said, "Whether she forgot, abused her power, or abused her position, she has seriously neglected her duty, right? This incident has also damaged my reputation and spirit. I hope the school can deal with this matter seriously. If it is let off lightly this time, does it mean that in the future, as long as they are class leaders or other leaders of the school, they can abuse their power and do things that abuse their power for personal gain?"
"I...how did I abuse my power for personal gain? What did I do for personal gain?"
Jiang Xi looked at him coldly. "Taking revenge for personal gain, how can it not be abuse of power and abuse of power for personal gain? Now you are just in school, a small class leader dares to do this. When you enter the society and become a full-time employee in a government department, how else do you want to abuse your power? Abuse your power for personal gain? Or do you think that you have to embezzle hundreds of millions of dollars to be considered as abusing your power for personal gain?"
Cui Yujie, who had already suffered backlash and almost ran herself to pieces at the sports meet, was not a big deal. Jiang Xi repeatedly called her "abusing power" and "abusing power for personal gain," which made the counselor serious. She said that she would submit the case to the department to see how the school would discuss how to deal with the matter.
Fearing that Jiang Xi would be dissatisfied, she said to Jiang Xi, "Don't worry, I will tell the school and let them deal with it seriously." She also said to Cui Yujie, "Please suspend all recent class activities."
This almost directly stripped Cui Yujie of her position as vice-class monitor.
Cui Yujie was also scared at this time. She had always felt superior because she was a native of Beijing. For the first time, she cried and yelled at Jiang Xi: "I have already apologized, what else do you want? Aren't you fine? Now I can't be the deputy monitor anymore, are you satisfied?"
She was anxious and scared, not knowing how the school would punish her. This unknown process of waiting for the trial result was the most tiring.
She couldn't help but show some hatred in her eyes, staring at Jiang Xi fiercely.
Jiang Wu's eyes were still cold: "Shouldn't you be satisfied? What hatred or grudge did we have before that made you do such a detrimental thing to me behind my back?"
Jiang Wu handled this matter so seriously. In fact, it was the same as the way he handled Liu Ping in Wucheng No. 1 Middle School, that is, at the very beginning, clearly define your bottom line, let others know that your bottom line cannot be touched, and if it is touched, you will die, or you will lose a layer of skin, so the next time others want to do something to you, they will think twice.
If others have obviously bullied you, you just tolerate, compromise, and keep silent, then the next time others will know that you are a soft persimmon, and they will pinch you anyway, and there will be no consequences, so they will keep pinching you.
Especially for people like Cui Yujie, this kind of person, even if you have no grudges against her, she will still do something to you that will hurt you and not benefit herself. Once she finds out that her attack on you has no consequences, she will continue to bully you.
More importantly, if Jiang Xi was only famous among sophomores last year, after the disaster relief action this summer, Jiang Xi is a well-known figure in the entire Beijing University.
This is before her cute vest is exposed. Once the cute vest is exposed, the influence will be further enhanced. At that time, the slightest problem will be magnified infinitely and people will look at you through a magnifying glass.
She has a clear goal in the future and wants to go to politics. She can't have a bad reputation. This matter can be big or small, but if the school does not deal with it seriously and does not clarify it, it may become an inexplicable stain on her in the future.
Even if it is just a small stain, it may not affect you at all, but if there are many small stains like this, you can't say when, when you don't know, it will affect others' perception of you and affect your promotion.
Unless the truth was already known that year.
Because time has passed, no one cares about the truth of that year. Others will only judge whether you are trustworthy or not through some things passed down by word of mouth.
When others hear about an incident like this, where you signed up for the sports meet but then disappeared, causing the school sports meet to almost fail, their first impression of you is that you are unreliable.
Not to mention the long-term consequences, in the short term, it may even affect Jiang Wu's admission to graduate school or the entrance exam.
The counselor didn't know that Jiang Wu's goal plan had been set for ten years later, or even thirty or forty years later. He didn't have any requirements for Jiang Wu. He thought it was appropriate to remove Cui Yujie's position as deputy monitor. As for the school's punishment, it still needs to be discussed.
Cui Yujie, on the other hand, could not accept the fact that she had been removed from her position as deputy monitor, and that she might be punished in the future.
In her opinion, she had only played a little prank, and it was a prank that she had to bear the consequences of. She had already suffered retribution, so why did they still treat her like this?
She had run 3,000 meters, 800 meters, and 400 meters, and her legs were almost broken. Wasn't that enough?
When several people in the dormitory saw Cui Yujie crying as she came back, she looked like a plucked rooster, with all her original spirit and pride gone. As soon as she returned to the dormitory, she climbed onto her bunk and cried facing the wall.
Liu Yan, who was writing something at a square table by the window, was startled. She stopped writing and looked at Cui Yujie who ran back crying in surprise. She then looked at Jiang Xi who followed her back and asked her in a low voice, "What happened?"
Jiang Xi did not hide the truth and said, "Someone signed me up for so many events in the sports meet without my consent and even without my knowledge. Of course I have to ask for an explanation, otherwise people will think that I deliberately signed up for the sports meet but didn't go." She smiled but said without a trace of smile in her eyes, "This is our school's sports meet. The Games are fine, but the next ones are the Beijing University Games, the National Games, and even the World University Games. If they do the same thing, and secretly sign up someone they don't like without telling her, and then accuse her of having no collective consciousness, isn't that confusing things?"
Cui Yujie, who was listening with her ears tilted up, couldn't help crying and said angrily, "How can it be so serious? Besides, didn't I run for you?"
Jiang Xi frowned and said, "What do you mean by running for me? Did I let you do it for me? Did I let you sign up for me without my consent? Now you still think you are right, right?"
Cui Yujie bit her lip, said nothing, and ignored Jiang Xi.
Even though the few people in the dormitory had guessed the truth before, they couldn't help but feel complicated when they heard Jiang Xi say in person that Cui Yujie had secretly registered her for the sports meet without telling her, and when they heard Cui Yujie admit it.
They had just finished their three years of high school and entered college life, which was less than two months.
Although they had had conflicts with their classmates in high school, they were all minor frictions, and they had never encountered someone like Cui Yujie, who was completely self-defeating.
Even if she did something self-defeating, they could understand it, but they still felt a chill in their hearts when they saw someone like her, who was a classmate from the same department and class and had the chance to meet in the same dormitory, but stabbed her in the back for no reason.
Especially Liu Yan, who was closest to Cui Yujie, and Zhang Min, who was always arguing with everyone in the dormitory and always said straightforwardly.
Jiang Xi also slowed down her tone and said to the other girls in Dormitory 401: "We are classmates, which is a rare fate. We all have a long way to go in the future. If I have offended you in any way in the future, please tell me in person. I will try my best to change what I can. If I can't change, we should seek common ground while reserving differences. Instead of stabbing you in the back silently." She smiled and said, "You know, I will retaliate." As soon
as she finished speaking, she was worried that Cui Yujie would stab her in the back. Zhang Min said loudly, "That's right, I have a straightforward personality. I usually speak directly and say whatever I want to say, but I really don't have any bad intentions. If I have offended you in any way, or if I said something that made you unhappy, I will definitely not get angry if you say it to my face. Just don't do anything behind my back." She pouted, glanced at Shen Xinlan's room and said, "This time it's Jiang Xi, who knows who will be the next turn?"
These words, which were obviously meant to imply something, made Cui Yujie stop crying and turn her back to them without saying a word.
Yu Qianqian and Shen Xinlan also nodded with lingering fear.
Yu Qianqian has a soft and simple personality. In high school, she was a very simple girl who only thought about studying. She was even a member of the class committee. She didn't have to do anything else but study hard and be a role model for the class.
After entering college, because there was Jiang Wu, a test-taker who had already started studying sophomore and junior courses in her freshman year, in her dormitory, and because other girls in the dormitory followed suit, she really had nothing else in her mind except studying, and she didn't know how to deal with any messy interpersonal relationships. She
didn't expect that there was someone like Cui Yujie who didn't play by the rules and was behind her in the dormitory. This made her feel cold on her back and she wanted to change dormitories.
Help! She was really scared to share a dormitory with such a person!
She was a little afraid of Cui Yujie, afraid that she would do the same thing to her if she didn’t like her. She had a soft personality and was an avoidant type. She really couldn’t handle these things!
Shen Xinlan had a harmonious family and was spoiled by her parents like a little princess. She was usually more self-centered. Cui Yujie had always wanted to get close to her, but she didn’t like Cui Yujie’s arrogance to other people in the dormitory and her fawning personality, so she didn’t pay much attention to Cui Yujie. She didn’t know if she had offended Cui Yujie, but she knew that Jiang Xi and Cui Yujie definitely had no conflicts. She was doing this to Jiang Xi, a person without any conflicts, behind her back. She might have offended Cui Yujie, so wouldn’t she be hated by her?
Whenever Shen Xinlan thought about the fact that there was someone behind her who was always waiting to do something bad to her, she felt cold in her heart and her eyes became a little colder.
Even Liu Yan, who had always been close to Cui Yujie, did not try to smooth things over and comfort the crying Cui Yujie. Instead, she continued to write something with her head down. For a while, the dormitory 401 was a little quiet.
Even the question of whether Jiang Xi was Xi Meng, which she had originally wanted to ask, was forgotten. Everyone was doing their own things in the dormitory.
When we went out to eat together in the evening, no one invited Cui Yujie. Liu Yan spontaneously went with Zhang Min, Yu Qianqian, and Shen Xinlan. Sometimes when she saw Jiang Xi in the cafeteria, she also invited Jiang Xi to go with her.
Although no one was trying to isolate anyone, they all distanced themselves from Cui Yujie.
She was given a demerit and her position as deputy class monitor was also removed.
At this time, another incident that shocked the entire Peking University happened. A girl from the class of 1995 committed suicide for some unknown reason.
I don’t know if it was affected by this incident, but the college quickly made a decision on Cui Yujie’s punishment and actually gave her a demerit.
The demerit will be recorded in the file, which will have a great impact on a series of subsequent bonus assessments, admission to graduate school, application to join the party, and even future job hunting. Cui Yujie never thought that she would receive such a serious punishment for such a small thing, and she had already reaped the consequences.
This was a huge blow to Cui Yujie, who always thought highly of herself and had a desire for power.
Cui Yujie did not say a word in the dormitory, and her whole body was depressed.
She appealed to the school several times, and even went to her parents to see if she could use their connections to find the department head to change the demerit on the file, but it didn't work.
Although her family is from Beijing, she has no connections at all. She was able to be admitted to Peking University, but it was all because of her ancestors' good deeds. Who knew that such a thing would happen.
She had never thought that such a small thing could have such serious consequences.
From then on, Cui Yujie's temperament suddenly became gloomy. She no longer combed her hair back, which was always combed behind her ears to expose her forehead. Instead, she left thick bangs and combed her hair forward, covering most of her face with the long hair hanging down on both sides of her chest.
She always felt that someone was talking about her behind her back and laughing at her. Her back, which had always been straight and held high, could not help but always lower her head slightly, trying to hide herself.
This situation lasted for about half a month. Suddenly one day, when they returned to the dormitory at noon, they suddenly found that all the things on Cui Yujie's bed had been moved away, and the bed was empty.
Probably when they went to class in the morning, she asked for leave and asked someone to move it away.
After she moved, they found out that she moved to another female dormitory in the School of Mathematics.
Liu Yan and the others breathed a sigh of relief. The atmosphere in Dormitory 401, where Cui Yujie was not, was a little more relaxed. No one was as cautious as before, fearing that they would offend Cui Yujie in some way and be retaliated against behind her back.
After the punishment for Cui Yujie was decided, the counselor also called Jiang Wu and the people in Dormitory 401 over and told them that Cui Yujie's incident was over and she had received the punishment she deserved. The counselor also cared about Jiang Wu and her situation in Dormitory 401 and told them that if they had any problems, they must tell him and the school and not keep it to themselves.
The school will help them solve the problem.
They also said that the matter was over and that they should stop talking about it outside.
The school was afraid that something might happen to Jiang Xi and the others, but they also didn't want to punish Cui Yujie too severely. It was best to make a big deal out of a small matter.
After all, it was not a good thing. Being laughed at by other departments was a small matter. The only thing they were afraid of was another student suicide.
What had happened was over. They should study hard and Cui Yujie could start over.
Cui Yujie's application to change dormitories was agreed by the counselor. After what happened, Cui Yujie was also given a minor demerit. The counselor probably knew that it was impossible for Cui Yujie and Jiang Xi to reconcile, so she agreed to it after getting the consent of a girl from another dormitory.
There were three girls from Beijing in that dormitory, and with Cui Yujie, there were four of them. The counselor also thought that since they were all from the same place, they might get along better.
After Cui Yujie left the dormitory, the atmosphere in Dormitory 401 became extremely harmonious. None of the girls were the kind of people who liked to cause trouble. Even Zhang Min was a person who didn't offend others, and she wasn't a big mouth, so of course she wouldn't tell anyone.
Jiang Xi was even less likely to do that.
She didn't even spend much time in the dormitory. On the one hand, after the Wanhua Film Festival ended, many people called her off-campus rental house to talk to her about the remaining copyrights of the two works "White Snake" and "The Song Dynasty".
The film rights of "The Great Song" have been signed to Director Yu and Boss Wang, who had worked with her before. Because the contract was for profit sharing, Jiang Xi has not received any money yet, and there is still one TV drama copyright left, "White Snake".
Jiang Xi has seen several teams that want to buy the copyright, and she only asked them to approve the filming within two years. After two years, if the project is still not approved, she can sell the TV drama copyright of this work to others.
This condition is the most demanding. Some people even come to Jiang Xi to discuss copyrights, not for filming, but to be a middleman, wanting to buy it from Jiang Xi at a low price and sell it at a high price.
However, there are people who sincerely want to buy the TV drama copyright of Jiang Wu's "White Snake". Among them, there is a director who is very optimistic about this work being made into a TV series. He painted a lot of big cakes for Jiang Wu, describing the prospects very well and the team well. The only thing is that he doesn't have much money.
Jiang Wu didn't care and told them that the copyright can be negotiated in the form of profit sharing.
After the TV series is filmed, it must be sold to the TV station. With the current popularity of Jiang Meng's works, there is no fear that there will be no TV station willing to buy it at a high price.
If this cooperation model of profit sharing is really negotiated, the copyright price will increase by more than several times, which also makes the team who wants to buy her copyright very hesitant.
Wang Shao and Director Yu, who had signed the copyright contract for the film "The Great Song" after getting drunk, wanted to come to Jiang Xi to discuss the copyright fee for this work, to see if the share could be changed to a one-time purchase as before, and even offered a sky-high copyright fee of 500,000.
As a result, they saw that Jiang Xi's phone calls never stopped, all of which were from people who wanted to buy the copyrights of her two works "The Great Song" and "White Snake".
Wang Shao was young after all, and when he was stimulated by these calls, thinking of the money he had earned, he gritted his teeth and said, "Just this contract, no change!"
He and Director Yu both thought of Tong Jingang constantly saying at the wine table that Jiang Xi and Jiang Bai were lucky, and that Jiang Xi had been particularly lucky since childhood.
They just need to think about Jiang Xi's career path, he was admitted to a key high school, won a gold medal and was admitted to Peking University, several of his works have sold hundreds of millions of copies, and the "Martial Arts" magazine has taken off, and several of his works have high ratings and box office. The more they think about it, the more they feel that this brother and sister are really lucky.
In order to take advantage of Jiang Xi and Jiang Bo's luck, they decided to ask Jiang Bo to play the important role in the film!
