Qin Nian suddenly felt that this was actually a good thing. Wasn't it her teacher who introduced her to Xian Jun? Now there was an opportunity for everyone to choose for themselves, and all of them who could participate had jobs and high awareness, so they could be considered a good match.
What if too many people attend the social gathering?
Qin Nian couldn't help but start to worry.
"I'm not afraid of having too many people, I'm just worried about not having enough. I've already thought it through, we need at least a hundred people. This is only fifty pairs. Our first batch of goods has a hundred units. If we had three hundred people, that would be even better!"
"Even if not every couple succeeds, at least a dozen will do. And each of them will have a discount coupon; they can then promote it at their workplace. When many people get married at the end of the year and want to buy big-ticket items, our washing machine will definitely be their first choice."
The more Fan Juan thought about it, the more excited she became.
“Then let’s go. The children should have just arrived at their maternal grandmother’s house.”
The two hit it off immediately and went out right away.
Professor Wen offered much encouragement after hearing this.
“We definitely need to support this kind of event. We don’t even need to wait until tomorrow. I’ll call right now and ask. We can easily gather seventy or eighty people. I’ll call your sister-in-law first. She’s in the hospital and we can decide right away.”
When Zhou Ang received the call, he thought something had happened at home. But when he heard about the social gathering, he realized that the dean had recently mentioned the same issue.
"Mom, there's no problem with this. I'll go see the dean right now. The list should be finalized in about three days. Then I'll call Comrade Fan Juan."
"Okay, we'll contact you directly then. I'll give you the phone number, please write it down."
Fan Juan was very happy.
Professor Wen made a few more phone calls. Compared to young people like Fan Juan, it was clear that the older generation, like Professor Wen, were more concerned about young people getting married. As soon as they heard that the stage was so big and that all the attendees had stable jobs and had passed the political review, they immediately agreed, afraid of being late.
Not only are they afraid of being too late, but they're also afraid that all the good potential partners will be taken by others, so they keep asking how many people can go.
Fan Juan made a gesture, and Professor Wen understood. He wasn't afraid of a large crowd, as long as the person had the character to be interested in finding a revolutionary partner.
The basic requirements were met, but there were many candidates to choose from. Although time was tight, we managed to gather more than 500 people.
And this is just the number counted on the first day. If we add more people later, it's estimated to be around 800 people, with more men than women. Some people might not even get a spot on the first try.
"Now I understand why the leaders said they would hold another one at the end of the year. I thought it was for the washing machine, but Professor Wen didn't mention the washing machine at all. He just made calls to various departments to invite people to the social event, and that's how they made up the numbers."
Fan Juan couldn't help but sigh as she sorted through the list of famous names.
She had genuinely thought the more people who came, the better, but when the list actually arrived, the number exceeded her expectations.
With less than five days left, Fan Juan still had to set up the venue. This was the first time their economic department had organized such a large event, and it certainly couldn't be too bad.
In the military camp
"Report: I don't want to participate in this social event!"
Liao Yuanjie came to find Hu Jun. As soon as the list of participants for the social gathering was released, Liao Yuanjie came to see him immediately.
"I don't want to get married yet."
Liao Yuanjie looked extremely distressed.
"Are you sure? This is a rare opportunity. So many people are scrambling to participate. If it weren't for the tight schedule, other military regions would probably send people too."
"I'm sure I'll give the opportunity to another comrade."
Liao Yuanjie raised his hand in salute.
"Since that's the case, then I'll change your name. Oh, what a pity. I heard that Comrade Fan Juan is the host of this event, and she's not married either. I was thinking that among a group of officers, you had a good chance. Maybe Comrade Fan Juan would take a liking to you."
