"This year's Beihang freshmen are something else, some were dropped off by their parents, others by celebrities! Unbelievable!"
"By the way, everyone who can get into Beihang is a top student, does that guy have time for a relationship?"
"It might not be a romantic relationship, maybe that guy is the young master of some consortium."
"Got it, in front of capital, celebrities are just performers."
"Anyway, being dropped off by a celebrity on the first day of school is enough to brag about for a lifetime!"
...
In the car, Zhou Dongdong frowned slightly:
"Did I cause him trouble?"
The assistant quickly closed the car door, with a complicated expression:
"You should worry about yourself first, people are gathering around, drive quickly, let's go!"
The driver pressed the accelerator, and the Alphard sped away.
The assistant was full of worry:
"I hope no one took photos, otherwise it will be a big problem."
Zhou Dongdong didn't mind:
"What's the big deal? I'm just a small celebrity who just debuted."
The assistant was speechless for a long time:
"You've only been out for a year, but the problem is, you became famous with just one movie! That was Director Zhang's film, many big celebrities couldn't even get a role!"
"And you even appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, of course everyone recognizes you!"
"Alright, alright, next time I'll wear sunglasses."
The assistant was utterly speechless: "..."
"Celebrity bro, wait for me!"
Even more people directly chased after him.
"..."
Wang Yi's mouth twitched, and he quickly sped up his pace.
He hadn't expected that just hitching a ride with Zhou Dongdong would cause such a big stir; it was outrageous!
It wasn't until Wang Yi entered the school gate, and ran into the crowd, that he finally shook off the people behind him.
A beautiful senior student waiting at the entrance brightened up, and walked over:
"Hello, junior. You're a freshman from the Class of '11 here to report, right? What's your major?"
"Yes, Business Administration!"
Wang Yi replied calmly, feeling a bit surprised.
The other person was 165 cm tall, with very high looks, possessing a naturally graceful beauty.
In a school like Beihang, where there are many boys and few girls, being a departmental beauty wouldn't be a problem.
She was actually wearing a white pure-desire style slip dress, which was a new style launched by Meiyou some time ago!
It was considered a somewhat conservative pure-desire fairy dress.
She also wore a small blazer over it, covering all the places that might be exposed, leaving only her S-shaped curves clearly visible.
However, the more tightly covered she was, the more it highlighted her curvaceous figure!
Wang Yi didn't know if she was being conservative or breaking the rules!
This senior student has depth!
Seeing Wang Yi staring at her, Jian Ziyan frowned slightly.
But considering the other party had very high looks, and was her preferred type, Jian Ziyan wasn't very angry.
Even goddesses, cannot escape admiring power and being fond of good looks.
Towards ordinary people, they are usually distant and cold.
But towards handsome guys, they are unusually tolerant, enthusiastic, even proactive, and fond of good looks...
"What a coincidence! My first major is Law, and my second major is also in the School of Management, Finance! I'm familiar with the School of Management, I'll take you there!"
Jian Ziyan smiled sweetly, and actively took Wang Yi's suitcase.
"Thank you, senior."
Wang Yi didn't refuse, as he only brought a laptop and a few clothes, which were very light:
"Senior, a multi-disciplinary talent in Law + Finance, this path is quite interesting."
These days, both Law and Finance are versatile degrees, with broad employment prospects, making it easy to find a job, but hard to find a good job, requiring competition for resources.
Finance depends on resources, connections...
Law depends on cases, connections...
Neither single one is a very good choice, enter with caution if you lack resources.
But if it's Law + Finance, focusing on high-end financial and economic legal services, then there's a very promising future.
For example, many complex financial disputes, ordinary lawyers don't understand finance and can't resolve them.
Only multi-disciplinary talents like Jian Ziyan, who understand both legal affairs and finance, can handle them with ease!
Especially in 2011, such multi-disciplinary talents were still very rare!
"Junior, you know a lot!"
Jian Ziyan was a bit surprised, not expecting a freshman to instantly grasp her career plan!
"But since you understand so much, why did you choose a dead-end major like Business Administration..."
After speaking, Jian Ziyan regretted it, as lawyers tend to be sharp and get straight to the point, even sometimes enjoying confronting people.
This was an occupational hazard.
After all, lawyers need to engage in sharp debate and argue with people, if they were always subtle and roundabout, they wouldn't achieve anything.
"Junior, I'm sorry, I'm not saying the Business Administration major is bad, but for ordinary people, it's really useless. Unless your family has an enterprise waiting for you to take over its management."
"If not, when you minor in a second major, be sure to choose a useful one, for better employment prospects in the future!"
Jian Ziyan said earnestly.
Although she was a bit blunt, she was indeed considering Wang Yi.
Wang Yi smiled, he really did have a company waiting for him to manage!
To put it bluntly, the Business Administration major isn't very useful for others to study.
But for Wang Yi to study it, it was extremely useful.
Many business failures are not due to poor operations, but poor management.
Wang Yi's purpose for attending university was, first, to systematically learn management experience, to help Meiyou develop better, and to make his business empire even more brilliant.
Second, to expand his network, to get professors and outstanding alumni from Beihang and surrounding prestigious universities to work for him, and to build his career bigger and stronger!
Third, to get a prestigious university degree and add a bit of luster.
"It's fine, I have an enterprise to manage."
Wang Yi said lightly.
"That's amazing!"
Jian Ziyan's beautiful eyes sparkled:
"By the way, does your family's enterprise need legal counsel?"
Wang Yi: "..."
However, once the company in the capital gets off the ground, he could consider it.
This rookie lawyer might not be skilled enough, but she has powerful figures backing her!
Just like interns from prestigious medical schools, for diseases they can't diagnose, a single call can bring in a top-tier mentor.
To prevent medical malpractice and ruining their reputation, even top-tier mentors have to give their full effort.
Similarly, it's the same for intern lawyers from prestigious schools; for cases they can't solve, they'll also call on their mentors for help, and those are legal bigwigs who make it to the legal news!
These legal bigwigs also fear their disciples losing lawsuits, bringing shame upon themselves.
Naturally, they will provide all kinds of help, including but not limited to analyzing cases, formulating strategies, mobilizing resources, and even...
"Alright, if there's a need later, I'll call you."
Wang Yi said with a smile.
What he valued was not Jian Ziyan, the rookie lawyer, but the great master Zhang San behind her, definitely a buy-one-get-two deal!
Of course, if Jian Ziyan's mentor was purely academic, then forget it.
What Wang Yi wanted was someone practical!
"Okay, junior, thank you."
Jian Ziyan looked at Wang Yi, filled with joy.
What lawyers need most are case sources!
The more case sources, the more they earn.
Without case sources, they'd starve.
If she could be attached to a company as a legal consultant, it would be stable.
But she didn't ask what Wang Yi's company was.
They had just met, asking too much would be impolite.
Jian Ziyan took Wang Yi to complete the enrollment procedures, and then introduced the school:
"Junior, over there are the gymnasium and the swimming pool. Over there is the museum, with large airplanes inside! When you have time, I'll take you to see them!"
"Okay."
Then, the two arrived at the male dormitory, collected the distributed daily necessities, and Jian Ziyan helped carry them upstairs.
"So this is what a male dormitory looks like!"
Jian Ziyan felt a little curious, as this was her first time welcoming new students.
"You're welcome to visit often in the future!"
Wang Yi joked.
"It's a deal, I'll visit often in the future."
Jian Ziyan said with a smile.
It wasn't easy for other girls to enter the male dormitory, but as a student union cadre, she could just carry a notebook and enter freely!
She just hadn't bothered to come here before, always being in charge of the female dormitory.
But in the future, she could visit Wang Yi often.
Jian Ziyan had a feeling, that Wang Yi possessed an inexplicable aura, calm and not simple at all.
It was as if everything was under control, and victory was assured!
He didn't seem like a freshman at all, but rather very much like a certain company founder she had met before!
Every gesture and movement had a convincing charm!
"My sixth sense is always accurate, this junior is definitely not simple!"
Jian Ziyan secretly thought.
The two took the elevator to the 16th floor, room 1607.
Wang Yi pushed open the door, a standard quadruple room, with bunk beds and desks underneath.
There were already two roommates inside.
A tall, thin man, wearing glasses, was clearly a typical top student, and was playing on his phone.
Another slightly plump roommate with permed hair, was playing a guitar, dressed flamboyantly, looking a bit showy!
Seeing Wang Yi enter, the tall, thin man walked over, and took the kettle and basin from Wang Yi's hands:
"Welcome, new roommate. I'm Fu Yanliang. This guy playing the guitar is Sun Tao."
"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Yi!"
"Wang Yi!"
Sun Tao put down his guitar, and pointed to the bunk bed opposite:
"Buddy, the one opposite me is your bed! We two are lucky, by the window! Those two aren't so lucky, one guards the door, one guards the toilet!"
Fu Yanliang's face instantly darkened:
"You just shut up. If you can't speak properly, say less!"
There was nothing to be done, the bunk beds inside had long been labeled, and couldn't be swapped.
Otherwise, everyone would choose the window-side ones, which had better ventilation and lighting.
As for those by the door and the restroom, they also had to be responsible for turning off lights, opening doors...
At this moment, Jian Ziyan also walked in.
Sun Tao's eyes went wide:
"Senior Jian Ziyan, the departmental beauty!"
He had spent the summer on Beihang's online forums, and was already familiar with Beihang's goddesses.
There was nothing to be done, Beihang had a huge gender imbalance, with few girls, and even fewer goddesses!
If you didn't do your homework and make a move early, it would be hard to find a partner!
Fu Yanliang also turned his head:
"A senior welcoming new students? So pretty, why was I assigned a senior male student?"
"Hello everyone."
Jian Ziyan greeted with a smile, but muttered to herself,
'There's nothing to be done about it.'
Senior male students welcoming new students prefer to serve pretty junior female students!
Similarly, pretty senior female students are only willing to escort handsome junior male students.
It's that realistic!
"Thank you, senior, for helping me bring it up."
Wang Yi took the suitcase from Jian Ziyan's hand.
He secretly thought, 'Sure enough, Jian Ziyan's reputation at Beihang is quite significant!'
"Don't mention it, junior."
Jian Ziyan smiled slightly, and looked at the quilt and duvet cover on the bed:
"Junior, let me help you put on the duvet cover."
"Okay."
Wang Yi didn't refuse, he took the quilt to the desk below, and put on the cover with Jian Ziyan.
Seeing this scene, Sun Tao's eyes widened:
"The departmental beauty helping put on a duvet cover, isn't this treatment a bit too good?"
He was so jealous that his molars were almost ground to dust!
It wasn't until she had helped Wang Yi tidy up his things that Jian Ziyan said goodbye and left.
Wang Yi escorted her to the door:
"Take care, senior."
Jian Ziyan, however, suddenly stopped, and put her hands behind her back:
"Junior, did you forget something?"
"What is it?"
Wang Yi was startled.
Jian Ziyan felt helpless, this junior was handsome, but a bit dense!
Do I have to spell it out?
Don't I have any face?
"Leave your contact information, otherwise how will we arrange to go to the museum?"
"Oh, hahaha."
Wang Yi came to his senses, added Jian Ziyan as a friend, and exchanged phone numbers.
Only then did Jian Ziyan wave her hand, and leave contentedly.
Wang Yi returned to the dormitory, only to see Sun Tao vigorously slapping his quilt:
"Damn it! Damn it! I'm really fed up!"
"Why?"
"Why was I escorted by a senior male student, while he was escorted by Senior Jian Ziyan!"
"That's the departmental beauty of our School of Management and Economics!"
"Why did the senior male student leave after escorting me downstairs, while the departmental beauty escorted him all the way up here? And even helped him put on his duvet cover and tidy up his things! Why?!"
Sun Tao only felt his heart was greatly unbalanced, and jealousy warped his mind!
Fu Yanliang smiled slightly:
"Why? Simply because Wang Yi is handsomer than you, taller than you, thinner than you, has more charisma than you, has higher emotional intelligence than you, is more graceful than you, and perhaps even more talented and richer than you..."
Sun Tao completely shut down: "..."
Fu Yanliang, however, was in a great mood, as he finally found an opportunity to retaliate.
It served this show-off right, always saying he guarded the door and the toilet!
Fu Yanliang saw that the phone Wang Yi was using was the latest iPhone model, costing over five thousand, the equivalent of two or three months' income for an ordinary person.
Anyone who could afford this phone in 2011 must surely come from a well-off family.
"Fu, I admit Wang Yi is handsomer than me and taller than me, but when it comes to charisma, I definitely win!"
As he spoke, Sun Tao touched his permed hair.
Fu Yanliang was utterly speechless:
"You, charisma? That's pure childishness!"
Sun Tao: "..."
"When that senior student just came in, did she even give you a second look?"
Sun Tao fell silent: "!!!"
It seemed Jian Ziyan only glanced at him when she greeted them, and then her gaze stayed on Wang Yi.
Damn, that's infuriating!
Sun Tao sighed:
"Alright, alright, I admit I'm not as charismatic as Wang Yi. But when it comes to talent, I can play the guitar, write songs, and sing! As for wealth, I'm a local, a 'Jing Ye' (Beijing master)! My father happens to have some businesses!"
After speaking, Sun Tao waited for their admiring glances.
Unexpectedly, Fu Yanliang merely curled his lips:
"Singing and writing songs is impressive? Who among those who got into Beihang doesn't have some talent? I can even write poetry, the kind that gets published in newspapers! Have your songs been published? Have you sold the copyrights?"
Sun Tao: "..."
"As for your father's assets, they're all your father's, not yours, what are you showing off for? The only thing you can show off is your local identity, but so what?"
"I got into Beihang as the top student in my city, how many points did you score? Your ranking, in our province, you probably wouldn't even get into a first-tier university!"
Sun Tao: "..."
Fu Yanliang unleashed a barrage, directly silencing Sun Tao.
The original proud self-satisfaction of the Beijing native was shattered.
There was nothing to be done, most non-locals who could get into Beihang were top students, and all had their pride, so Fu Yanliang wouldn't indulge him.
Seeing this, Wang Yi quickly intervened:
"We're all roommates, there's no need to compare and hurt feelings. Who's the other roommate? They haven't arrived yet."
No sooner had he spoken than the door opened, and a new roommate walked in, carrying many bags.
"No senior escorted you?"
Sun Tao couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, but he left impatiently after escorting me downstairs."
Fan Junjie said unhappily:
"I brought them up myself."
Wang Yi: "..."
Fu Yanliang: "..."
Fu Yanliang sighed:
"Indeed, only Wang Yi is outrageous, having the departmental beauty senior escort him all the way to the dorm, and even helping him put on his duvet cover!"
Fan Junjie's mouth twitched: "..."
Wang Yi walked over, and helped Fan Junjie with his suitcase.
Fan Junjie grinned:
"Thank you, Wang Yi."
Sun Tao was a bit confused:
"How do you know he's Wang Yi? He didn't say."
Fan Junjie laughed:
"Why ask that? With your looks, you wouldn't be escorted by the departmental beauty!"
Sun Tao: "!!!"
Fu Yanliang: "Hahaha!"
"F***, I can't stay in this dorm anymore!"
Sun Tao dropped his guitar, and went outside for a sullen smoke.
"Hahaha."
Laughter, however, erupted inside the dorm.
Wang Yi let out a dry laugh, the dorms of top students are hard to deal with.
At the age of eighteen, it was a time of youthful exuberance, and no one wanted to be inferior to another!
But it wasn't a big problem, Wang Yi wouldn't stay in the dorm every day.
Lin Shu's family had already bought a house off-campus, so he could go and live there later.
As for Wang Yi wanting to buy a house, he'd need a local hukou, or pay social security for five years, which would be difficult.
He should just see how to buy a house under the company's name.
Fan Junjie quickly tidied up his bed, then opened his suitcase, took out a large bag of mushrooms, and carefully hid them in the wardrobe.
Wang Yi's eyes widened, and he had a bad feeling:
"Junjie, are you from Yunnan Province?"
"Yes, how did you know?"
Wang Yi: "..."
'I didn't figure you out, I figured out the mushrooms!'
As is well known, Yunnan Province enjoys eating wild mushrooms, as for the consequences, that's up to fate.
Wang Yi made up his mind, he absolutely could not eat the mushrooms Fan Junjie brought!
Hotpot was also out!
What if he casually threw in a few mushrooms, and they were all cooked together?
Then it would be over!
While Wang Yi was worrying, Fan Junjie took out an electric hotpot from his suitcase.
He was afraid the school wouldn't sell such a thing, and actually brought it from home!
Fu Yanliang's eyebrows lifted with joy:
"The pot is ready, we can have hotpot later!"
"No need to wait, tonight will be fine! And mushrooms, they're delicious!"
Fan Junjie said with an expectant look.
"Alright, buddy, I'll go out this afternoon to buy lamb and beer! Let's have a feast."
Fu Yanliang said excitedly.
Wang Yi felt a headache coming on, it was over, he couldn't stop them!
"Wang Yi, join us tonight!"
Fan Junjie said enthusiastically.
Wang Yi was speechless:
"Junjie, are all these mushrooms you brought wild? Will there be problems if we eat them?"
Fan Junjie waved his hand:
"No, I eat them often, they are gifts from nature, there will definitely be no problems."
Wang Yi: "..."
You really can't persuade Yunnan people about eating mushrooms, completely unpersuadable.
The more you advise, the more they eat!
Wang Yi secretly thought:
"No, I can't eat in the dorm tonight, absolutely not. I'll find an excuse to eat outside, then come back and check on them, hoping nothing goes wrong!"
"Red caps, white stems, eat them and lie down together on planks. Lie on planks, sleep in coffins, then be buried together in the mountains. Buried in the mountains with cries and shouts, relatives come to eat, eat with umbrellas, the whole village lies down on planks together."
This wasn't just talk!
