The campaign speech for the Provincial University Student Union was scheduled for Saturday night of the first week after school started.
Once the senior graduates left, five positions in the student union became vacant, including four officers and the position of vice president of the student union.
According to the long-standing rules of the Provincial University Student Union, the Student Union has a president and a vice president, but the vice president cannot be a graduating student. This is because once the president graduates, the vice president must immediately take his place and take over his work to prevent the student union from falling into a chaotic situation with no leader.
This time was no exception. As soon as the student union president left, the vice president of the student union, Tao Zhiyun, automatically became the chairman. The student union originally wanted to select the vacant position internally according to past practice, but the school did not agree this time and required that the personnel be filled first and then a fair internal election be held.
Now everyone completely understood what the school leaders meant. Tao Zhiyun was tacitly approved by the school, but the vice-chairman wanted a new person to take over and wanted to reform the student union by injecting fresh blood.
Not only that, many students even discussed privately that when the new students enter school next year, these students who entered through the formal college entrance examination will completely take over the student union and undermine the power of the elders.
After dinner, many students rushed to the auditorium on the north side of the school to watch the campaign speeches.
When Cheng Maixiang accompanied the neatly dressed Ruan Peiling to the auditorium, there were already quite a few people sitting inside.
The two were looking for an empty seat when they suddenly saw a familiar figure. Cheng Maixiang immediately called out to her, "Lu Chengcheng, can we sit next to you?"
Lu Chengcheng didn't say anything and nodded.
The two of them struggled through the narrow aisle and sat down next to Lu Chengcheng.
As soon as Lu Chengcheng saw Ruan Peiling, her eyes lit up. She was wearing a white ruffled shirt, slim black trousers, and a gray vest over the shirt. Her long hair was braided into a pigtail and folded up, tied tightly with a beautiful wig. She looked full of youthful vitality and capable.
"Classmate Ruan Peiling, your outfit today is really, really beautiful." Lu Chengcheng was so stunned that he didn't know what words to use to describe it. In the end, he just said the word "beautiful".
"It looks good, doesn't it?" Ruan Peiling said somewhat proudly. "Let me tell you, this is the outfit Maizi matched for me. She told me that if I wore it like this, my chances of winning would be better."
Lu Chengcheng's eyes immediately showed envy and admiration, and he said hesitantly, "Classmate Cheng Maixiang, you are really amazing."
The voices of the three startled the person sitting in the front row. He turned around and glanced at Ruan Peiling, then snorted, "Today we're running for a position in the Student Union, not for a beauty pageant. What's the point of dressing so extravagantly?"
The three of them looked closely and found that it was Le Yueli, with her little follower Hu Wenjing sitting next to her.
Ruan Peiling's face darkened, and before she could object, someone nearby said, "Dressing nicely is pleasing to others and makes you feel better. Why not? Do we have to dress in rags and patches to reflect the image of our contemporary college students?"
Several people looked at the person who was speaking at the same time. It turned out that Zhao Linlin was sitting not far in the front row. She was dressed very fashionably today, wearing a red woolen skirt and light makeup. She looked extremely beautiful.
Wow, I didn’t expect that everyone in the dormitory was here. Cheng Maixiang couldn’t help but sneer in her heart.
Ruan Peiling looked down on Zhao Linlin, but now it was rare for her to be on the same side as her. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. She immediately agreed and said, "That's right. We just want to show the spirit of modern college students. What's wrong with dressing neatly?"
Le Yueli was speechless after hearing the two people singing the same tune. She turned back in anger and muttered something under her breath.
Cheng Maixiang looked around and saw that the auditorium was already full of people. Some people, seeing that there were no seats left, simply sat in the aisle of the auditorium.
What was even more rare was that the first row of the auditorium was filled with leaders from various departments, and even the vice president came to watch the campaign speech, which made those who had registered even more nervous.
Ruan Peiling held Cheng Maixiang's hand and whispered, "Maizi, I really admire you now. Your performance at the city's advanced collective selection meeting the other day was so intense, even before it started. What if I forget what to say when I get on stage?"
Cheng Maixiang patted her shoulder gently and comforted her, "Why are you so nervous? Just think of this as a chance to learn. If you're chosen, it's just luck. If you're not, just consider it as accumulating experience. Besides, I'm here with you, so what are you afraid of? Just think about how you're going to lead the country and command the people!"
Ruan Peiling burst out laughing and immediately felt her tension eased a lot.
Tao Zhiyun is a senior male student. He went on stage and gave a short speech, which simply encouraged the candidates to speak boldly and show themselves more so that more people could get to know them, and he also wished the candidates good luck.
Although there were only five vacant positions in the Student Union, there were hundreds of people who signed up to run for the positions, most of whom were freshmen. After the Student Union's initial screening, only fifteen candidates were left.
Finally, a draw of lots determined the order in which the fifteen speakers would speak.
After Tao Zhiyun finished speaking, an officer came to the stage and read out the list of candidates. What Cheng Maixiang didn't expect was that among these fifteen people, ten were freshmen. It seemed that freshmen were really interested in this matter.
What she didn't expect was that among these ten people, three places were occupied by their dormitory, and Ruan Peiling, Le Yueli and Zhao Linlin were all candidates.
