Chapter 360: The Joint Plan with a Hidden Glittering Light
Leisurely time passed quietly, and it was the beginning of March. After more than two months of fermentation, various articles and videos, as well as some popular science experts' propaganda, the popularity of Edes Academy was getting higher and higher, and there was a faint illusion of catching up with Saint Ingo, which made Saint Ingo Academy also begin to take various actions and means. Blindly
emphasizing that you are the first and the best as in the past, such remarks are becoming more and more difficult and unworkable in the public opinion field. After all, this set of statements is too old-fashioned, and the audience is tired of hearing them. If you are the first, then show your strength, and the winter festival competition not long ago has already shown the result.
In order to reverse this situation, Saint Ingo began to make up for it in other aspects. Various leagues that they didn't care about in the past began to send participating teams and strive to win the championship. These events are B-level events. Although there are more C-level events, Saint Ingo will not participate in them with fanfare. After all, in the eyes of some people, the level of C-level events is still too low.
"In other words, recently Saint Ingo has started to send outstanding students in various fields to other star regions to participate in large-scale competitions?"
Sitting in the office of Edes Academy, Tilan was holding an orange cat in her arms and talking to several student union cadres in front of her.
"Yes, President Tilan, Saint Ingo has started preparing since the winter festival ended, but it has only gradually become apparent recently." Allen pushed his glasses and projected the information on the recording board into the air to show everyone.
"For example, the 'Seven-Colored Flower Wrapped Finger' competition for young gardeners is an art competition that showcases various gardening skills. Participants have to prune and create a garden scene that suits the theme. The seven winners will receive seven-color flower-embellished gloves awarded by the conference. It is a very famous competition. It is said that if one can get the seven-color flower-embellished gloves, the 'Double Swords School of Cutting' will exempt one from the assessment and allow direct admission. Some other extraordinary schools related to plants also give preferential treatment to winning students."
"In this competition, Medi from Saint Ingo won the snail purple flower gloves, which was reported by media in more than a dozen star fields in the south." "
And there is the 'Salt Extraction' competition that just ended last week. This is a competition for young pharmacists. The students sent by Saint Ingo also won the third place, which is a good result and has been recognized by many people." "
It is said that Saint Ingo is also preparing to send people to participate in the 'Inverted Star Lake Sword Fighting' conference, which is a competition jointly organized by more than 20 star fields in the southeast. It is also a well-known competition among B-level competitions."
At this point, seeing that everyone in the room seemed to have heard of the name for the first time, Allen explained.
"Unlike previous battles, the 'Inverted Star Lake Sword Fight' is held in the weightless environment of space, and contestants can only use swords. At first, this was a performance competition, but because the on-site effect was very good, it was liked by many people, and then the scale became larger and larger. Later, a rule was made that if objects in the scene were destroyed during the battle, points would be deducted, and there were many requirements for the fighting method." "
When will this competition be held, and can I still sign up now?" Tilan asked curiously.
"The venue of the event is in the Ziyao Grass Star Region, and the time is in late May. It's still in time to sign up now, but there is less than a week left." After saying this, Allen looked at Tilan expectantly.
"Okay, okay, seeing that you are so excited, it's not impossible for me to sign up, but I just feel a little petty." Tilan touched the cat in her arms and said her thoughts.
"I defeated him in the winter festival before, and then I chased him to participate in the competition that Saint Ingo also participated in. It's a bit petty to chase him relentlessly." It's like an adult bullying a child, the girl thought to herself.
"However, it's rare to find a suitable one, so it's not reasonable not to participate. I may not be good at other more suitable competitions."
"What did the school board say? Since Saint Ingo is taking action, we should also take action."
Avni stood up to explain. She smoothed the bangs on her forehead with her hand, and then explained in detail.
"The school is also organizing and participating in various competitions, trying not to fall behind. Some time ago, we also talked and asked the presidents of various clubs whether they needed any additional help, such as inviting powerful masters to provide temporary special training, some spiritual medicines, instruments, etc."
"The board of directors probably also bleed a lot this time. These resources cost a lot, but they must be willing to do it." Jin Senke leaned against the cabinet not far away and said his thoughts.
"What is the result? Although after a year of rectification, the atmosphere inside Edes is very good and everyone is working hard, it must be said that Saint Ingo's accumulation is indeed deep, and it may be difficult to catch up in a short time." After a year as the student union president, Tilan also knew the specific strengths of both parties and knew that it would not be that easy.
"There has been a lot of progress, but it will probably take a few more years to catch up with Saint Ingo. Both the teachers and the quality of the students need to be improved." Allen commented calmly.
"In other words, we still have to rely on President Tilan to set an example to save the academy. In fact, I have a better idea that can immediately make the popularity of Edes Academy overwhelm Saint Ingo." Allen pushed his glasses, looked down, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"The expectation and excitement in your heart are about to overflow." Tilan shook her head unhappily. She felt that this guy's idea was not reliable.
"Ahem, President Tilan, listen to me first. In fact, the method is not difficult. As long as President Tilan debuts as an idol, holds a concert tour, and shoots a youth love movie, it will immediately attract huge popularity. By then, not to mention the four-leaf crystal, it will probably cause a sensation in the entire federation..." Once Allen opened his mouth, he had a kind of torrent of words.
"Okay, okay, you can stop fantasizing now." Tilan's eyes condensed, and Allen was like a hoarse voice, unable to speak, and finally quieted down.
With a light wave of her hand, she released Allen from the forced silence. Tilan said that it was unlikely for her to debut, and declined Allen's proposal.
"Hey, I really thought about what would happen if Tilan and I were filming together." Ruby was full of regret, supporting her head and sitting at the desk.
"Singing is okay, but filming takes too much time, and I don't like to play someone else, not to mention a love drama, which makes me even less used to it." The girl stated the reason for her refusal.
"First sign up for the 'Inverted Star Lake Sword Fighting'. As for other competitions, we will fully assist the various clubs in the academy and let them prepare well. We just need to do what we should do." Tilan decided on the next policy.
"Yes, President Tilan."
At this time, everyone finally took it a little more seriously. Although they usually joked, the people present actually admired this young president. Whether it was temperament, strength, or personality, she was almost flawless, at least in their hearts.
After giving the instructions, everyone present dispersed one by one, and Tilan continued to sit at his desk thinking about how to deal with Saint Ingo's method of breaking the deadlock.
The other students of Edes still need to grow up. It is not possible to improve in a short time. This road will take time to settle down.
However, there is not so much time now. She will stay in Edes for two years. After two years, she will graduate and leave. If she cannot completely shatter the myth of Saint Ingo during this period, Edes may be suppressed again, and the various forces gathered around Saint Ingo will not disperse. In this way, the political and economic environment of Four Leaf Crystal will continue to be stubborn and difficult to change.
I have to think of other ways. The girl rubbed her head and thought about other possibilities.
"Meow~" The cat in her arms saw that Tilan stopped touching it, and called slightly, and then rubbed Tilan with her head, trying to find warmth.
"You lazy little cat~" Tilan put down her hand and continued to touch this spoiled guy, feeling the warmth and smoothness of the cat's fur.
At this moment, she suddenly became conscious and remembered something. Although some colleges and universities in the north are not as good as famous schools like Edes in combat and comprehensive strength, they each have their own strengths and specialize in a certain niche field, such as the 'Inita Academy' in training teachers, the 'Three Phases Moon Academy' in training witches, the 'Luo Zhen's Eye Academy' specializing in puppet making and puppetry, the 'Juunidan Academy' famous for making and burning clothes, and the 'Lotus Red Porcelain Academy' named after various exquisite porcelains.
These academies were actually representatives of the local forces in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region, but as the "local faction" declined, they also declined, and now their influence is not as great as before.
If these academies can unite with the Edes Academy, not only can they win trophies in various sub-fields and increase their popularity, but they can also promote the reconciliation between the forces behind Edes and the "local faction" forces in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region.
Edes Academy, strictly speaking, was also part of Saint Ingo. Because of the struggle between the "royal faction" and the "local faction", the two sides had a grudge, but in order to resist certain practices in Saint Ingo, a part of the "royal faction" split off and formed the current Edes Academy. Later, they also won over some of the "crystal mining faction" forces, gradually gaining a firm position and becoming one of the six major academies.
The backgrounds of the six major academies are not simple. Among them, Saint Ingo and Edes can be said to be two sides of the same coin. The Swarm of Bees has the background of the central chaebol, and those chaebol families are all human, unlike Saint Ingo, which has a strong elven family origin.
Although Crystal Grid Academy is located in Emerald Skirt, many of its students come from various space stations in the star field. They are the power of the "Sons of the Stars", and the path they follow is different from that of the "Sons of Man".
Lei Lisa Academy is a church academy and also a representative of religious forces in the star field. Although there are not many people, they are often firm in their beliefs and very united.
Thunderbolt Academy is supported by the "Starship Faction". They also have a deep relationship with the military. Many graduates go to the military academies of the Federation for further studies, and a few even join the army directly.
Although the six major academies have differences in ranking, their basic bases are different. Only Edes and Saint Ingo have the most intense competition because their basic bases overlap. The Swarm of Bees also have similarities, and the first three have the greatest influence.
After slowly analyzing the origins and backgrounds of the six major academies, Tilan had a lot of ideas in her mind, but things like alliances still depend on personal willingness. She decided to ask the board of directors for their opinions first.
The next day, inside Edes Academy, after receiving Tilan's application and proposal, the Edes Board of Directors held a small online meeting. After discussion, several core directors approved the proposal and expressed their support for Tilan as a representative to negotiate with the "local faction" forces of the northern colleges and universities.
"This is the letter granted by the board of directors. Tilan can keep it well and show it to the representatives of the northern colleges and universities when necessary to show sincerity." Fernandi took out a special deed seal paper, on which was written the authority and certification key granted by the board of directors of Edes Academy. Outsiders can verify and compare it with the official server of Edes with the key. "
Thank you, Mr. Fernandi. Do the directors have any other instructions?" Tilan took the deed seal paper and kept it carefully.
"They said to let Tilan do it. As long as it is roughly reasonable and not excessive, you can agree to it. Then, I will send you an encrypted form for your review of the resources and conditions we can provide."
"Got it." Tilan nodded, a little curious about how many resources the Edes Academy has. From what Fernandi said, this form is not all, but some of the easier parts, so she can be authorized to play.
Now that she knows that the board of directors of the academy also agrees with her idea, Tilan also began to prepare for the next action. She wants to get to know the local forces of the northern colleges and universities. The most convenient ways are two, one is the relationship of Lady Isabella, and the other is Mel's grandmother, Lady Hathaway.
After thinking about it carefully, Tilan decided to ask Lady Isabella's opinion first. She was not sure which side this lady stood on, because with her identity, she could not stand on a side, and she didn't care about the internal struggle of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region.
After making certain preparations, Tilan dialed Lady Isabella's communication account, feeling a little nervous, as if this lady was the only adult she would be a little nervous about when facing.
"Tilan, what do you want to talk to me about today?"
After receiving the call, the image of Lady Isabella was projected in front of her. She seemed to be drinking afternoon tea at this time, sitting in the Glass Dream.
"Madam Isabella is like this..." Tilan organized her words and said what she thought.
After listening, Lady Isabella nodded and said with great satisfaction: "It seems that you have grown a lot in the past two years, and have begun to learn how to integrate what you know and have."
"I have heard about the internal situation of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region. Although I do know those people in the Northern College, I am not suitable to participate in this matter."
"You should go to Mel's grandmother, that is, 'Mrs. Hathaway'. In fact, she is also an old acquaintance of mine, and she is also one of the older senior members of the 'local faction'. Her words have a certain weight. It is a good choice to ask her to go through the connection."
"During the negotiation, Tilan." Lady Isabella put down the teacup and looked at Tilan in front of the projection.
"You must know your own position. Although you are a student of Edes Academy, you are also a student of Iridium Academy, and even a singer with independent will. Don't put yourself completely in the shoes of Edes Academy to weigh the interests."
"You can use this alliance to enhance your influence between the two parties, as a key middleman and hub, to gain a certain degree of initiative."
"Although the 'local faction' is weak at present, they are the people who truly grew up in this land, and may have a closer relationship with you. If you can use this alliance to slowly restore their vitality, you will also receive their great gratitude. For a long time to come, the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region will be your base and headquarters."
"Singers don't fight alone. There must always be people who stand behind you wholeheartedly. They will become your stable rear and a place that can be used as a safe haven."
"At present, the demands of Edes Academy have many similarities with those of the 'localists'. These are actually good breakthrough points. Regarding the common interests, it is not necessary to fulfill them all immediately. It can be some kind of promise or agreement in the future. For example, after defeating Saint Ingo, can we allocate a quota from the six major campuses to the Northern University Alliance, or let the 'localists' get a part of the vacant market share in the future."
"This promise based on future victory is like an iron lock, connecting the two parties and deepening the relationship through cooperation again and again."
"Alliance is not a piece of paper, but an intangible emotion formed through fighting together and mutual benefit. Although it has no explicit agreement, it is sometimes more convincing than a contract on paper."
"These are my suggestions. I hope you will not be too surprised by the complexity of the adult world. This is a world with both interest struggles and sincere feelings."
Looking at Lady Isabella who was guiding her step by step, Tilan nodded sincerely to thank her and said that she would listen to the advice.
"Finally, I wish you a safe journey, our lovely little Tilan." Lady Isabella waved gently, and then the projection screen closed.
After closing her eyes and carefully thinking about what Lady Isabella had said, Tilan opened her eyes a few minutes later and began to think about her future schedule and plans.
It's time to take action, the girl thought.
Suddenly, she felt that the world was very simple. If you want to find many people to help you fulfill your wish, then help them solve their problems and fulfill their wish.
She still has a lot of things she wants to do in the future, whether for herself or for the world, she needs many people to help her, so she needs to help many people.
