Chapter 549
Qian Jiahui placed the rice boxes in front of everyone's seats and said to Su Miao:
"Su Miao, you are so thoughtful. You even packed a box of lunch for everyone. We used to share food from a big pot, but we never enjoyed such meticulous treatment."
The members beside him nodded in agreement:
"Yeah! We all brought our own lunch boxes today! I didn't expect to eat such a high-end meal."
Su Miao smiled modestly and said quickly, "It's not a fancy meal! It's just a specialty dish from my hometown, Gui District. I'd like to give it a try. I hope it suits everyone's taste."
Students at University A come from all over the country, and there are really no people from Guangxi in the club. They are really interested in this "local characteristic" that they have never tried.
The president clapped his hands and said loudly, "Okay, now that everything is ready, don't just stand around, find a seat, and let's get ready to eat!"
As the sponsor of the event, Su Miao was originally invited by the president to sit in the main seat, but she stepped back embarrassedly and pulled Guo Xiaojie to sit on the left side of the president.
Su Ji’s dishes once again captured everyone’s hearts. The members feasted on them and praised them as they ate.
As expected, the students were well-educated, and their words of praise were endless, without any repetition.
After the dinner, Su Miao listened to all the compliments and felt as sweet as honey in her heart. She felt a little elated.
After the meal, everyone did not rush to disperse, but took the opportunity to get together and started discussing how to promote Su Ji.
Li Xiang pushed his glasses and spoke first, "We have a club newspaper, published biweekly, which many students read. It's also on the shelves in the cafeteria and library.
Although our club doesn't occupy a large space there, it still has a place.
How about using the second half of the month's section to promote Su Ji? The editor-in-chief has a good relationship with us, so he should be able to agree.
Talk about the characteristics of Su Ji's dishes and the stories behind them, and add a few pictures of the dishes that are delicious and fragrant, and you will definitely make all the teachers and students in the school envious."
After hearing this, some members thought it was a good idea and nodded in agreement.
But after Su Miao thought for a moment, he felt that it was not appropriate and said:
“If it’s just to promote my store, then it’s not in line with the main content of the community newspaper.
Moreover, if there is no connection with the school or the club, the advertisement will seem too awkward. Students may feel that it has nothing to do with them and will not take it too seriously.
In my opinion, we should first determine the specific activities to be sponsored, publish relevant reports about the activities in the community newspaper, and then mention the sponsors in passing.
In this way, the publicity will be more logical and easier for everyone to accept.”
"That's a good idea!"
Qian Jiahui's eyes lit up, and she raised her hand excitedly and continued:
"There's a reporter from the club newspaper in our class, the same one who came to interview us and took photos for us when the club was founded.
At the next event, I can invite her over and have her write a feature story for us. We can read the content first, add a description of Su Ji, and take photos.”
The president nodded and said, "Okay, that's the general format for now. So, Su Miao, what activities do you want to sponsor?"
"Senior, I've already thought about it. How about a hiking activity?" Su Miao tilted his head, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Sure! In addition to the hiking activities, we will also hold a formal induction ceremony for new members next week, and we will solemnly introduce Su Ji to them at that time."
The president answered without hesitation.
"Hehe! Can I make some small flags and hang them on your backpacks with our store's logo printed on them?" Su Miao asked tentatively again.
"Sure!" The president agreed readily.
"Then...can I make a banner and hold it up when you take pictures?" Su Miao asked.
"Can!"
The president answered firmly. As for the company's current financial difficulties, sponsors are like gods. With funds, they can support their next step of development.
Their goal is not just to hike, but to charge forward!
Li Xiang sat opposite, winking at Su Miao, covering half of his face with his palm, and asked softly:
"Junior! How much funding are you going to give us?"
"Sponsor 300 yuan for the first phase?" Su Miao said the number carefully.
The originally lively scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Su Miao.
Su Miao's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "Oh no! This is too little! It makes me look so stingy!"
"So... 500 yuan?"
The president stood up suddenly with excitement, and the stool made a friction sound against the ground. He excitedly held Su Miao's hand and kept shaking it up and down:
"Student Su Miao, on behalf of the club, I sincerely thank you for your strong support! This is the largest amount of sponsorship we have ever received since our club was founded!
Not only for this event, but also for other activities held by the club in the future, we will definitely cooperate with you and help you promote Su Ji."
Facing the eager eyes of the members, Su Miao breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that they didn't think it was too little.
Since the words had been spoken, Su Miao finally decided to sponsor 500 yuan. She brought cash from home today and donated it on the spot.
Qian Jiahui said with regret, “If I had known there would be such an important sponsorship today, I would have notified my classmates in advance to come and take photos.
This is the first substantial financial sponsorship our club has ever received, and it is truly a memorable event."
Su Miao smiled slightly and said mysteriously, "Senior, actually... I prepared a camera myself. How about you take a picture for me as a souvenir?"
As he spoke, Su Miao took out a camera from his backpack.
Seeing this, Qian Jiahui pulled Li Xiang over and said, "My photography skills are average, Li Xiang is more professional. He's a veteran, let him take the photos."
So, Su Miao and the president stood on one side, each holding a large envelope with "500" written on it in their hands, and stood solemnly in front of the Flying Eagle Society's emblem. With a "click", they recorded this precious moment.
Then, a solo photo of the president was taken. The president was holding an envelope in one hand and a sign with the Su Ji Food Shop trademark in the other, smiling from ear to ear.
In this way, a simple yet meaningful sponsorship ceremony ended successfully.
The activities that night made everyone immersed in joy. Su Miao was also very generous. He took out his camera and took several photos for everyone. He thought about developing the photos and giving them to the club as a souvenir.
As for the photo showing her face, she and the president agreed that it would be better not to make it public for the time being.
After all, she is a freshman, so it is better for her to keep a low profile.
