Chapter 856 Is he advertising?
"...During his time at school, he achieved outstanding results in the city's arts competition thanks to his outstanding personal abilities. He was a top student and a key figure in the arts, leading his team to brilliant achievements in innovation and entrepreneurship. His optimism and positive attitude actively spread positive energy among his classmates, making him a role model for many students..."
"Wow, that's awesome, Mr. Lu~" Finkel clapped his hands slowly and teased.
Facing Bai Qingxia's uncontrollable laughter, Lu Yuanqiu raised his hand to cover his forehead: "Hard praise, hard praise..."
Zhang Yang slapped his thigh. "Damn it! How come I didn't know Lu Yuanqiu was a top student?"
Xu Siyang leaned forward and looked ahead: "Hahaha, how come I'm not a top student anymore? At least I didn't fail the exam."
After the host finished introducing the student representatives, he put down the script and looked at the crowd with a smile: "Do you think I read the script wrong? First I introduced the partner companies, and suddenly I started introducing the student representatives?"
Finkel shrugged and sneered: "This guy has learned to answer quickly. Hey, yes, yes, yes!"
There was only a small response from the audience. Some people were indeed curious. This was the first time that the boring celebration scene had some interaction between the stage and the audience.
"Does everyone know Lu Yuanqiu?" The female host walked a few steps to the side and asked curiously.
This time, quite a few students in the audience responded: "I know him!"
Cao Shuang, as the gangster inside, stood up from his seat and shouted very loudly, and all the classmates around Ruan Yueru looked over.
Who is this guy? Which class is he from?
Ruan Yueru quickly reached out and pulled him to his seat.
Listening to the noises around them, Liu Wangchun from the Business Administration department clicked his tongue twice, while Long Liandong from the Literature department took out his cell phone and prepared to record a video.
The female host shook her head regretfully. "But today, the general manager of the Zhucheng branch of the Lu Group is also here. I heard that he's both young and handsome. Should we invite the general manager to the stage first, or should we invite Mr. Lu to the stage first?"
It was supposed to be a serious occasion, but no one understood why the host had, somewhat uncharacteristically, started joking. Interaction was normal, but was it appropriate to ask such a question? For a moment, no one responded, and even Chen Cheng and He Qianlan, who were in the guest seats, were a little confused.
Long Liandong had already turned on the video and held up his phone.
Xu Siyang turned around and looked at Liang Jingfeng: "Is your general manager here?"
He was stunned to find that Liang Jingfeng was still shaking.
"It can't be you, right..." Xu Siyang looked at him in confusion.
The female host kept the audience in suspense, knowing that no one could have guessed this unexpected result, so there weren't many people interacting at the scene. After all, she herself was surprised when she found out.
However, the higher-ups said that she should try her best to liven up the atmosphere. It is indeed rare for a student to serve as the general manager of a large enterprise while still in school. This time, through the media, the school anniversary might even go viral online and bring more popularity to Juda University.
The host, no longer holding back, walked back to the main stage and shouted, "Next! Let's give the warmest applause to the general manager of Zhuhai University's partner, Lu's Group, and invite him to the stage!"
Applause broke out.
Lu Yuanqiu patted the back of Bai Qingxia's hand, exhaled, and stood up from his seat.
Finkel behind him was stunned and raised his eyes in confusion.
The students at the back also stopped clapping and their eyes were focused on Lu Yuanqiu's back.
The girls in front hadn't heard anything yet and were still clapping, but when Lu Yuanqiu walked forward, they all turned their heads and slowly stopped clapping.
Xu Siyang: "Ah?"
On Fu Yimeng's side, Shi Ling, Chu Wenxuan and many returning graduates all stared with wide eyes.
Lu Yuanqiu had already walked to the edge of the stage, waving normally while stepping up the stairs.
This was the first time in such a grand occasion that the applause suddenly stopped and was replaced by lively discussions.
It would be fine if they didn’t know Lu Yuanqiu, but the key is that they all knew Lu Yuanqiu.
What a joke, so young, general manager?
It seems that in this school everyone eats either his girlfriend's food or his home's food?
In the guest seats, the expressions on Chen Cheng and He Qianlan's faces were wonderful. He Qianlan was angry, amused, and surprised, until she heard Chen Cheng next to her suddenly add: "That leader does seem to have a family relationship with the Lu Group..."
"So Lu Yuanqiu and Lu Douqing are siblings?!" He Qianlan turned her head in surprise.
Chen Cheng blinked his eyes: "Maybe..."
Bai Qingxia's phone was vibrating. She took it out and took a look. She saw question marks in two group chats, the class group and the Wedding Campaign group. In the Wedding Campaign group chat, there were so many question marks. Chen Fei, Wang Haoran, Gao Qiang and others were still curiously asking what was going on, but no one explained to the three of them.
Lu Yuanqiu walked to the podium where the flowers were placed. He said "Hello" twice into the microphone and said to the crowd, "Everyone, please be quiet for a moment."
The scene fell silent.
There are so many people... This was Lu Yuanqiu's most direct feeling. He had never seen so many people in any performance or party.
Not going to lie, I was a little nervous.
Lu Yuanqiu held the microphone and smiled apologetically:
"I know that many of my classmates have gotten to know me through various channels on campus, whether it's the band, Xia Yiwan Noodles, the Big Ben Milk Tea comics, promotional videos, or even through the label of being Bai Qingxia's boyfriend."
"Haha, even though I may not have spoken to everyone, to you all, I'm probably more familiar than an old friend who lives in the next dorm. But today, you suddenly learned that this old friend has another identity."
He glanced towards his class.
"Damn it..." Finkel cursed twice.
Lu Yuanqiu retracted his gaze. "I'm sorry for hiding this from everyone. The Lu Group is indeed my family business. As an apology, the public cafeterias on the four major campuses will be open to all teachers and students of Zhuhai University for free for a week. Don't worry, President. I'll cover the expenses."
Lu Yuanqiu thought he was quite humorous, and most of his classmates cheered enthusiastically, but the junior students didn't laugh at all. There was a terrifying silence, with only sparse applause.
What a cold group of people! Why don't they smile? Are they born not to smile? Lu Yuanqiu complained in his heart.
Bai Qingxia clapped her hands and turned her head silently. Seeing that the expression on Finger's face was still frozen, as was Xu Siyang behind him, she turned her head back silently.
After you hit Lu Yuanqiu, don’t hit her.
Lu Yuanqiu paused, pulled his speech from his pocket, and glanced at the podium below. "To celebrate Zhuhai University's centennial, the Lu Group is offering a special benefit. The well-known Xia Yi Wan Noodles will soon be available in instant form at all major retailers. Zhuhai University students can enjoy a 50% discount on Xia Yi Wan Noodles at any instant noodle store with their Zhuhai University ID. This benefit is permanent."
The students were still cheering, but the juniors were still a little silent, and the applause was sparse.
"Is he advertising?" Chen Cheng couldn't help but complain.
He Qianlan covered her mouth and laughed.
