The student union has limited funding allocated by the school, so many activities have to attract sponsorship themselves, which is also the biggest headache for senior management.
Whenever there is an event, especially a big event like a college-level cultural evening or a sports meet, there is definitely a shortage of funds. The college will just give a little, enough to host a fairly rough event, but this will be criticized by everyone and the school will also criticize us.
If you want to make it more exciting, go and get sponsorship yourself. This is a time to test the student union's ability.
However, it is not easy to get sponsorship, especially competitive sponsorship. Every time, one has to beg sponsors profusely and be as humble as a grandson. So it is understandable why the Academy's Art and Literature Department and External Relations Department are fighting for Su Zelin.
The chief manager of New Century is like the God of Wealth!
Just for the National Day Gala of the School of Economics and Management, New Century sponsored one thousand dollars. In addition, there were a lot of mice and keyboards as gifts. The wealth and generosity are written all over their faces.
Other stores on campus are so stingy that it’s not easy to ask for a sponsorship of two or three hundred yuan.
What's more, it is a sponsorship for a department-level cultural evening. It would be terrible if it was sponsored at the college level.
Therefore, the Academy's Art and Literature Department and External Relations Department wanted to invite him in with the attitude of welcoming the God of Wealth.
As long as Su Zelin nodded, his name would be added to the membership roster of the two departments immediately on the same day.
However, there haven’t been any activities in the Arts and Literature Department of the School of Economics and Management recently.
The department had just held a cultural evening on October 1st, and the New Year's Day was for the entire college. The sponsorship had nothing to do with a small deputy director at the department level like himself, so Su Zelin could completely talk to the college.
Tao Min was a little puzzled.
Very handsome at the age of one: "New Year's Day is coming soon, the college's New Year's Gala should need sponsorship, I can help apply to the boss and the general manager, and try to get as much as possible! Moreover, as long as I am still in the position of head manager, there will be no shortage of sponsorship for the activities of the college and our Department of Economics and Management in the future!"
Minmin Muter: "Junior, does New Century intend to sponsor the Student Union for a long time? [Looking forward to it]"
Tao Min was excited. This kind of long-term sponsor is undoubtedly the most popular among the student union and is hard to come by.
Very handsome at the age of one: "Haha, that's right, New Century is based in colleges and universities, so we plan to seek in-depth cooperation with the student union. I am familiar with the senior sister, so I will talk to you about this first!"
Tao Min immediately understood Su Zelin's meaning.
In fact, with the identity of the junior student's New Century manager, he can have a direct conversation with the president of the college student union. Even if he makes a phone call to the president of the student union, the other party will come running over.
This kind of wealthy and generous long-term sponsor is definitely a guest of honor in the Student Union!
However, if he went to the student union president, he would not get any credit at all.
However, if I report this matter to myself and the student council first, it will be a great achievement.
Because the college student union might think that they had persuaded Su Zelin through personal connections and made him promise to provide long-term sponsorship to the student union, which would be completely different in nature.
My junior fellow student really has good intentions!
Minmin Muter: "Junior, thank you. I also troubled you to sponsor the department's literary evening party last time. You are so good to me, but I can't repay you [tears]"
Very handsome at the age of one: "Or I can just pledge my love to you [sly smile]"
Minmin Muter: "Is there such a good thing? Then it's a deal [raised eyebrows]"
Very handsome at the age of one: "Senior sister, you agreed too casually [shame]"
Minmin Muter: "When you meet a guy who is so handsome and versatile, who can even become the manager of a flagship digital store with a part-time job and has a promising future, why would you hesitate? If I think about it for one more second, I would feel that it is disrespectful to my junior [covering my mouth]"
"… "
After joking for a while, he got back to the topic.
Very handsome at the age of one: "By the way, before you report this to the Art Department of the Academy, it is best to contact Senior Sister Yan Qingyi first. She is my senior sister in high school and we have a good relationship! As for how to report it, you can do it yourself."
Minmin Muttel: “OK, I understand!”
Su Zelin's words conveyed two meanings.
First, the credit goes not only to myself, but also to Yan Qingyi.
Second, you can make up any story, for example, you and Yan Qingyi found Su Zelin, invited him to dinner, and persuaded him to become a sponsor of the student union.
There's no need to be polite, just try to take as much credit as possible.
He is handsome at the age of one: "Oh, I have a private matter here, I want to trouble you, senior."
Minmin Muter: "What's the trouble? I've pledged my love to you. We are all family. Just tell me, and I will do my best to help you if I can!"
Tao Min is in a good mood.
Within her ability, Su Zelin would do whatever she was asked to do.
Very handsome at the age of one: "I have a junior sister in high school who wants to join the art department to hone herself, but she never served as a class leader in high school and does not have any special resume."
Minmin Mutter: "Haha, this is easy, the Department of Arts and Literature welcomes all ambitious people, I'll leave it to you, senior sister!"
Su Zelin gave me a generous gift. How could I not satisfy his small request
Minmin Muter: "That's it, nothing else?"
He was handsome at the age of one: "Anything else? Nothing. It's snowing and it's so cold. I can't ask the senior to come over and warm my bed at night, after all, I'm such a party person, right?"
Minmin Muter: "Pah, you're just wishful thinking. By the way, which building and room do you live in?"
Very handsome at the age of one: "… "
After teasing Tao Min for a while, he was teased back by this bold senior schoolmate, and then the conversation ended.
My ability to make money is indeed unmatched.
Now Panpan’s chance of joining the Student Union is guaranteed!
The gangster was a little smug.
In fact, even if he didn't use his money ability, given his friendship with Tao Min, the senior would still give him face if he just said hello to her.
However, he had always intended to cooperate with the student union. In fact, the store building plan he submitted to the School of Finance that year included sponsoring campus activities.
If a business wants to get off the ground quickly, advertising is essential.
Moreover, starting from next year, New Century will have five branches, and advertising efforts will be increased accordingly.
Not only various sponsorships on campus, but also newspapers, magazines, and even TV ads may appear!
Su Zelin would never be satisfied with letting New Century carve out its own territory on the university campus. Sooner or later, he would break out of the campus and attack the entire Lin'an, and then the entire Zhejiang Province.
In short, before graduation, New Century’s reputation and branches must spread to the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Luzhou regions!
This is the goal set by Su Zelin.
To this end, advertising in the coming year is a top priority.
The cooperation with the student union on campus is just the first wave of small actions, and there will be more to come.
However, although it is a cooperation, New Century, as the God of Wealth, is the initiator, and the promise of long-term sponsorship is a big favor. If they talk directly to the president of the Student Union, neither Yan Qingyi nor Tao Min will get any credit.
Instead of doing this, it’s better to do your friend a favor and everyone will be happy.
In this way, both Tao Min and Yan Qingyi would get credit, and each would owe me a favor. Isn't this more comfortable than talking to the student union president
…
Huang Panpan has already been selected to join the Department of Arts and Literature, and at most she will just have to go through the formalities when the time comes.
Of course Su Zelin would not let her know about this.
Let my junior sister think that she joined the student union on her own ability, and she will be happier.
Since the student union recruitment would start soon, Huang Panpan wrote the speech quickly and showed it to Hunzi for review the next day.
Her Chinese grades in high school were pretty good. She scored the highest in Chinese among the five subjects in the college entrance examination. Before going to the Finance College, she often wrote letters to Su Zelin, so she was considered to have some literary talent.
However, writing letters and giving speeches are two completely different things.
Su Zelin took a casual look and found that the speech was not up to standard.
It was just an ordinary job application draft. There was no attractive highlight. The whole article was bland and could not stir the emotions of the audience.
Although it was an internal decision, Su Zelin still hoped that Huang Panpan could perform better, at least to win more applause and make her more confident in herself.
So Hunzi revised it to make the whole manuscript more interesting and not boring.
Then Huang Panpan felt much more comfortable when she recited it again.
Huang Panpan felt that her original manuscript sounded awkward and boring no matter how she read it. She thought that no one would like to listen to it. However, after revising it again and again, she still couldn't figure out where the problem lay, so she had to give it to Su Zelin.
As expected of my senior, he just made some minor changes and the momentum of the manuscript is completely different, with tension and relaxation, ups and downs!
No wonder the senior became the class monitor after entering college, he is really amazing!
With the confidence that "with the manuscript in hand, the world is mine", a few days later Huang Panpan excitedly came to the department student union recruitment place accompanied by Su Zelin.
This is a large public class classroom that can accommodate hundreds of people, and there are quite a lot of people here, almost all of them are freshmen and sophomores.
If you really want to join the student union, you should join in your freshman or sophomore year. No one would wait until your junior year. Besides, junior year is not far from graduation. You are only a student for a little over a year, and you can only be an ordinary staff member if you work hard. Unless you are special like Su Zelin, you can become a cadre immediately after joining the student union in your junior year.
“Are there so many people?”
Huang Panpan was originally quite confident, but her confidence was gone in an instant.
The department student union has a very limited number of places for new members every year. Judging from the current situation, the number of people who can get in is probably less than one-tenth. What's more, Huang Panpan also knows that she doesn't have any special skills.
What's more, the one sitting in the center seat in the front row, who seems to be the person in charge of recruiting new employees today, is a beautiful senior schoolmate.
As the saying goes, opposites repel each other. I am so pretty, so the senior sister won’t be jealous of me and deliberately prevent me from joining the student union, or even make things difficult for me after I join, right
The junior high school girl was still quite naive. She was worriedly thinking this in her heart, but she never expected that it was because of this beautiful senior school girl that she would be able to enter the student union.
"It's okay, Panpan, believe in yourself, you can do it!"
Su Zelin encouraged her with a smile.
"Yes, Senior!"
Huang Panpan calmed herself down.
Not long after, recruitment began.
The person in charge of recruitment today is Tao Min.
"Hello, students from the Department of Public Administration. I am very happy to see so many new friends here today and actively participate in the recruitment meeting of the Department Student Union's Arts and Literature Department. I am Tao Min, the vice president of the Department's Arts and Literature Department..."
Tao Min was in high spirits because she would soon be the president.
Just a few days ago, Su Zelin gave her a generous gift.
Tao Min also seized the opportunity and boasted about it when reporting the matter to the student union of the college, saying that she and Yan Qingyi had worked together to persuade Su Zelin. They took advantage of their good friendship, treated him to several meals, and talked him so hard that they almost went to the boys' dormitory to sleep with him at night. Finally, they convinced the manager of New Century to promise to reach a long-term and in-depth sponsorship with the student union.
Because she had brought a relationship with the God of Wealth to the Student Union, the chairman was very pleased. Then Tao Min soon got wind of the situation. The president of the department's Arts and Literature Department would be replaced soon, and the old president would step down after his senior year, and she would be appointed to succeed him.
Among several vice president candidates, Tao Min stood out. In addition to his outstanding personal abilities, it goes without saying that he also made a great contribution to obtaining long-term sponsorship from New Century.
Otherwise, compared with other competitors, her advantage is not great and it is hard to say who will win.
Tao Min was very happy. The promotion from vice president to president was very important to her. It was not only about increasing authority, but most importantly, it would add a highlight to her resume when she graduated and looked for a job.
There are several vice presidents of the student union in the department, which is not uncommon, but being the president is quite impressive, and it will give her more confidence in finding a job or increasing her salary in the future.
If you miss this opportunity to be promoted to a full member in your junior year, you will never have it again in the future. You can't be promoted in your senior year, and many people will even have to step down, like the old president. After all, he has to do an internship and his graduation project, so he has no time to manage the student union.
Su Zelin's favor was like timely rain for Tao Min, and it helped her to quickly become the president of the department's literature and art department. Tao Min was naturally grateful.
She planned to return the favor, not only by letting Huang Panpan join the student union, but also to see if there was a chance for her to help her become a cadre in the future.
As for moving up to the level of vice president, it depends on personal ability. This cannot be forced. Lack of ability will only make a fool of oneself.
After a brief speech, Tao Min didn't waste any time and started following the process.
"What you have to do today is very simple. We will let you go on stage one by one according to the order of the pre-registration list. After that, you can go back and wait for notification. Of course, you can also stay and listen to other students' speeches. Everyone has three minutes, so please make good use of it!"
As soon as Tao Min finished speaking, many people below started to cheer.
"Only three minutes, that's too short, it's not enough!"
"Exactly. It took me more than three minutes to just introduce myself. What kind of speech is this?"
"My speech should take at least ten minutes to finish, and the department student union didn't tell me earlier, so how can I revise it all at once? Really!"
"… "
There are complainers, but there are also calm ones.
Tao Min remained unmoved. She made a gesture to silence everyone, and everyone below fell silent.
"The recruitment notice did not mention the three-minute speech limit. It's not just our department's Arts Department. I dare say that all student union departments don't have it!"
"After graduation, when you go to a company or organization for an interview, will their recruitment notice detail the interview rules? No!"
"In fact, the test for you has already begun since the moment we posted the notice."
"Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. If you are interested in joining the student union, you will naturally be interested in the recruitment process. You can learn about the specific process through many channels. The easiest way is to ask your counselor and class teacher. They must know about this!"
"However, the recruitment notice was posted more than half a month ago, and some people still don't know the process of the student union recruitment. I think this is a problem with my preparation. It means that he didn't have a strong desire to join the student union and just wanted to try his luck!"
"As for those students who are more prepared and have a clear mind, they are undoubtedly more qualified than other competitors to become new members of the student union. Do you agree?"
Tao Min's words made those who complained and grumbled feel ashamed.
It seems that it is indeed my own problem.
Just like an organization or company, the student union’s recruitment notice is not obligated to post the process.
Huang Panpan cheered up.
No wonder the senior deleted most of my manuscript and asked me to practice repeatedly and control my speaking speed to about three minutes. It turns out that the speech time is really only three minutes!
The junior high school girl actually didn’t understand either, but luckily she had a good military advisor by her side, and Hunzi had already taken care of everything for her.
No matter how some people complained, the recruitment has begun.
The applicants whose names were called took to the podium one by one. However, some people's plans were disrupted due to time constraints, and the hasty revisions were not effective. After the speech, they were not satisfied and left the scene in frustration.
Of course, there are also those who are full of confidence and have everything planned out.
Maybe many people think that there is only so much that can be done in three minutes, but in fact it is enough for the student union to recruit new members.
Through the personal resume submitted in advance, the student union will have a preliminary understanding of you. Then when you go on stage, others can also see at a glance your mental state and whether you are confident or not.
Some people walked with big strides, their backs straight, smiling, relaxed and with natural movements.
Some people shrank back, their faces flushed, their bodies tensed, and their smiles were very stiff.
These two types of people gave completely different impressions to Tao Min and the cadres of the recruitment working group.
Even before you open your mouth, these discerning senior members of the department's student union can tell whether you have the basic qualities to join the student union. The speech is just a further test of your eloquence. However, many people think that the speech represents everything, which is obviously a wrong idea.
When Tao Min called out Huang Panpan's name, the little girl took a deep breath.
It's my turn!
"Come on, Panpan, keep smiling and be in good spirits!"
Su Zelin gave her a thumbs up.
Even though it was an internal selection, the junior sister couldn't perform too poorly, otherwise Tao Min would not be able to make an exception and recruit her.
"Yes, Senior, I know!"
The junior high school girl walked up to the podium with a determined look in her eyes.
Tao Min's eyes fell on her.
This is Su’s junior high school classmate. She’s quite pretty. No wonder Su wants to help her, that little pervert.
After bowing to Tao Min and the members of the recruitment team, Huang Panpan began her speech.
The junior high school girl is quite brave and is not at all nervous in front of so many people.
She didn't have a speech script in her hand, but she had memorized it by heart in the past few days. According to Su Zelin, this would give her extra points.
After the three-minute speech, Tao Min led the applause, and other members of the recruitment team followed suit.
To be honest, Xiaoxuemei's personal performance was not very exciting. Although her speech was quite fluent, it had a sense of memorization and lacked some sensationalism.
But she also has two advantages.
The first is to be relaxed, not nervous, and speak loudly and clearly, unlike some people who are shy and even tremble or stutter when speaking.
Second, the speech was quite good, with several interesting points, but Tao Min guessed that it must have been Su Zelin who wrote the speech, as Huang Panpan herself could not have reached such a level.
Huang Panpan was excited when she returned to her seat.
"Senior, did you see that? The senior sister in charge and the others were applauding me!"
Not all new candidates in the election will receive applause. Only certain people who perform well will be praised in this way. So Huang Panpan felt that she performed very well. In fact, she was very satisfied with it. At least there were no typos in the entire speech.
Su Zelin thought to herself that this was called memorizing a script, not giving a speech. Her performance was only okay, but it was enough for Tao Min to recruit her into the department student union. The guy was even afraid that she would not perform well on the spot and make it difficult for Tao Min.
Thinking this in his heart, he encouraged her on the surface: "Haha, that's really good, Panpan, it seems that you have a good chance of joining the Student Union!"
"Well, Senior, I'll take your advice!"
"… "
The next night, Su Zelin received a call from Huang Panpan.
"Senior, I was hired by the Department of Arts and Literature. I just received the notice!"
My junior high school sister sounded very happy on the phone.
I have achieved another small goal and am one step closer to breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly!
"Oh, congratulations! Hard work pays off!"
Su Zelin also pretended to be surprised.
"I still need the help of my senior, otherwise I wouldn't be sure at all. If my senior hadn't reminded me, my speech alone would have taken at least seven or eight minutes!"
"Once you join the student union, you are no longer an ordinary student. You need to be a role model for student union officials. Panpan, you can't be willful in the future, understand?"
"Okay, senior, I understand. Panpan will work hard to adapt to the new role!"
"… "
After chatting for a while, I hung up the phone.
Huang Panpan suddenly remembered something.
Can you tell your parents too
After a moment's hesitation, she made her decision.
Although my relationship with my parents hasn’t been very good recently, I still have to share this good news with them.
So the little girl called her dad’s cell phone number.
The call was connected after just two rings.
"Hello, Panpan."
Huang Hongbo's surprised voice came from the microphone.
It's not often that my daughter calls me on her own initiative.
"How are you doing on campus lately?"
His first reaction was whether Huang Panpan had been wronged, which was why he called home.
But the worry did not happen.
"Well, everything is good. College life is much more interesting than high school. There are many extracurricular activities. What's more, I joined the student union!"
Huang Hongbo was stunned when he heard what Huang Panpan said.
He was on speakerphone, and Li Juan beside him was also confused.
My daughter joined the student union
They dare not even think about such a thing.
Because the couple felt that Huang Panpan would not take the initiative to join such an organization at the university, and besides, she did not have enough ability.
"Really?"
Huang Hongbo asked in disbelief.
"Really? I went to the recruiting meeting yesterday, and today I received a notice that I was accepted into the department's arts department!"
“That’s really great!”
Huang Tuhao was excited and felt happier than if he had made a million in business.
I really didn’t expect that Panpan would become so sensible after going to college!
"The senior helped me a lot. I originally prepared a very long speech, but he shortened it to about three minutes. He said that the speech of the new student union member should only be three minutes. It was really like that when we got to the scene. Many people were caught off guard and failed to perform well, so they were eliminated!"
In addition to sharing the good news, Huang Panpan actually wanted to take credit for Su Zelin.
Huang Hongbo understood what was going on as soon as he heard it.
Su Zelin's help was probably more than just revising the speech. He might have even made acquaintances with important people in the department's Arts and Literature Department.
Otherwise he didn't think his daughter was good enough to join the student union.
"Then you have to thank them!"
"That's a must. I'll treat you to a meal some other day!"
When talking about Su Zelin, Huang Panpan no longer hesitated.
Even if they were my parents, they couldn't object to this matter.
Li Juan couldn't hold back any longer and winked at Huang Tuhao beside her.
The meeting with Su Zelin during the summer vacation was exposed. Huang Panpan firmly believed that she was the instigator. The relationship between mother and daughter reached freezing point, and her junior high school sister ignored her.
Huang Hongbo coughed dryly: "Pan Pan, how is the situation between you and Su Zelin now?"
Huang Panpan frowned when she heard it.
What does dad mean by this
"Daughter, don't misunderstand me."
Huang Hongbo quickly explained: "Your mother and I did something wrong last time. It was mainly because we didn't know much about Su Zelin at the time, which led to unnecessary misunderstandings. Later, your mother and I asked about Su Zelin and felt that this boy was quite good. Especially after he went to college, he became the class monitor, and he was also excellent in both character and academics. He also took such good care of you. Of course, we are very grateful to him. When he returns to Jianglan, we want to treat him to a meal."
Huang Panpan was happy when she heard it.
She asked tentatively, "Dad, do you mean you don't object to me dating my senior?"
"My daughter, your mother and I both feel that you have grown up, become a college student, and joined the student union. You have your own ideas and of course you have the right to decide who you want to date. Your parents shouldn't interfere too much."
At this point, Huang Hongbo changed his tone and said, "However, you are only a freshman, so you still have to focus on your studies."
My daughter took the entrance exam to the Finance College specifically for Su Zelin. Now she is already in the Finance College, and it will be impossible to stop her in the future.
Besides, they found that Su Zelin was a pretty good person after he went to college and was worthy of their daughter in every way, so the couple discussed it and decided to express their attitude.
After all, the later conflict between them and their daughter was caused by misunderstanding Su Zelin. If they want to resolve it, they can only start from Su Zelin.
"Dad, thanks!"
Huang Panpan breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is not a decision I made on my own. It is the result of a joint discussion with your mother. She is right next to you. Do you want to say a few words to her?"
Huang Hongbo asked again.
Huang Panpan hesitated and said, "Thank you, too, Mom."
Li Juan was very excited.
Ever since the last incident, she hasn't heard the word "Mom" from Huang Panpan again.
If I don't approve of Su Zelin, I don't know how long it will take for my daughter to resolve this knot in her heart.
"Panpan, you've done so well in college and even joined the student union. Your father and I are very proud of you. You must keep up the good work!"
"I know, Mom. I will definitely become better and better. Please rest assured!"
"… "
