"Boss, what are you muttering about?"
Zhao He asked, puzzled.
How is the president of the photography art club selected?
Chen Feng did not answer, but instead asked Zhao He, "Was it directly assigned by the school's Youth League Committee?"
"How could that be? That's so undemocratic!"
Zhao He shook his head. "The school's Youth League Committee only controls the development direction of each club. As for the club president, he is elected by the members of each club through voting."
"That makes things easier."
Chen Feng chuckled as he sized up Zhao He. "Old Zhao, how long have you been the vice president? Want to try and move up a rank?"
"ah?"
Zhao He shuddered; he sensed a hint of malice in Chen Feng's smile.
"Boss, why are you dragging me into this? Isn't our most pressing issue resolving the cooperation problem?"
"To be honest with you, I can't solve the problem, but I can take care of the people who create it."
"???"
...
Inside the activity room, the members of the photography art club remained seated, none of them getting up.
Seeing this, Zhang Rui's lips curled up slightly, forming a satisfied smile.
“You are wise; you made the right choice.”
"However, I must make one thing clear: if I find out anyone is secretly collaborating with that website... I won't hold back."
"Alright, that concludes today's meeting. Everyone, please adjourn."
"Creak!"
Before everyone could get up, the door to the activity room was pushed open.
The next second, a boy walked in.
The moment Zhang Rui saw who it was, her expression changed drastically.
"Chen Feng? What are you doing here? Get out of here!"
Even though half a day and a night had passed, Zhang Rui still felt an uncontrollable surge of anger when she thought about Chen Feng's refusal to buy her prized work yesterday and the amused expression on his face when he left.
"Senior, are you even being reasonable?"
Chen Feng said with a smile, "This classroom belongs to the Ancient City University of Finance and Economics, not yours. Why should I leave just because you say so?"
"Stop making trouble here."
Zhang Rui angrily shouted, "Are you blind? Can't you see we're in a meeting?"
"You're not a member of our photography club, so you're not eligible to participate!"
Chen Feng raised an eyebrow. "Really? But I clearly heard you say the meeting was over. What, even if the meeting is over, I can't come? Senior, do you live by the sea? Why are you so nosy?"
Zhang Rui trembled with anger, but there was nothing she could do. She could only wave her hand to signal everyone to leave quickly.
Zhang Rui could guess perfectly well what Chen Feng was doing here.
He must have heard that I was going to terminate the collaboration between the photography art society and Douyin, so he came here specifically to stop me.
Should the members of the photography club remain in the activity room and let Chen Feng persuade them?
Zhang Rui isn't stupid; she wouldn't do that.
However, while Zhang Rui could urge the members of the photography art club to leave, she couldn't stop Chen Feng from speaking.
"Hello everyone, my name is Chen Feng. I am a freshman in the School of Finance at this university, and also the boss of Douyin."
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
They never expected that a freshman who had just enrolled in college would dare to start a business, and even more so, to create a website.
Some of the more outgoing students even tried to approach Chen Feng and chat with him.
But Zhang Rui, standing on the podium, scanned the crowd with sharp, knife-like eyes.
Although there were no words, everyone understood what Zhang Rui meant.
"Anyone who dares to speak to Chen Feng will be kicked out of the photography club!"
So, everyone had no choice but to suppress their curiosity about Chen Feng and head outside.
no way.
Nobody wants to take an extra elective course or take an extra exam.
"I'm here today to remind everyone that you've signed a cooperation agreement with Douyin."
Chen Feng stood still, calm and composed, as steady as a mountain. Although he was a freshman, his every move exuded the maturity and composure of a middle-aged man.
"Everyone here is highly educated and should understand that an agreement has legal force."
"I remember very clearly that the cooperation agreement clearly stated that you need to submit at least ten high-quality videos to Douyin within a month, otherwise it will be considered a breach of contract and you will have to pay Douyin a penalty."
"But there's no need to worry too much. The penalty for breach of contract is not high; it's only five thousand yuan."
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped in their tracks. Even though Zhang Rui glared angrily, she couldn't get them to leave quickly.
Back in 2007, 5,000 yuan was no small sum.
In particular, they are a group of college students with no source of income.
Chen Feng stared intently at Zhang Rui. "Senior, you've abruptly terminated the cooperation. Have you considered what to do about the breach of contract penalty? Are you planning to bear it all by yourself?"
Zhang Rui felt like her lungs were about to explode with anger!
In her envisioned script, after failing to persuade everyone, Chen Feng would humbly beg for forgiveness and, in order to quell her anger, spend a fortune to buy the "Inseparable" set.
If he was still not satisfied, Chen Feng would offer him an exorbitant price to become the art director of Douyin.
Then, Zhang Rui could boast to her classmates and friends that not only were her works published on the website, but she had also become a senior executive of the website, earning a generous salary and wielding the power to decide the direction of the website's content.
Zhang Rui never dreamed that Chen Feng would not only abandon the promising "broad road" but also forge ahead on the narrow path!
"Chen Feng, how dare you threaten me?"
Zhang Rui angrily questioned him.
Before Chen Feng could reply, a deep male voice rang out from outside the activity room.
"It's unnecessary, really unnecessary."
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zhao He, his face grim, step into the activity room.
Zhang Rui's eyes lit up immediately. "Vice President Zhao, you've come at the perfect time!"
"You were the one who facilitated the collaboration between Douyin and the Photography Art Society. Now that Chen Feng is coming to accuse you, it's only right that you resolve this issue."
"Try to talk to Chen Feng calmly. As you just said, we are all students of Gucheng Finance and Economics. We see each other all the time. There's really no need to take it to court."
Zhang Rui spoke calmly, yet her words carried an undeniable air of dominance.
With just a few words, Zhang Rui seemingly reasonably passed the buck to Zhao He.
Even though Chen Feng had lived through two lifetimes and was very knowledgeable, he still couldn't help but give Zhang Rui a "thumbs up".
Putting everything else aside, this senior's ability to shift blame is truly amazing!
"Zhang Rui, you've misunderstood me."
Zhao He rolled his eyes in annoyance. "What I really want to say is that you'll soon no longer be the president of the photography club, so Chen Feng has no reason to threaten you."
