Chapter 208: Chapter 184: Joint Publication of National Authority Journal Papers (Second Update, Ten Thousand Words, Subscription Requested) _2

Then it dawned on him.

No wonder!

The media all wanted to interview him and his sister, Ding Xiaoyou. It must be because of the trending topic: "The Science Champion of the College Entrance Exam and the Principal of Mist City Arts and Science University are siblings." They wanted to secure an exclusive interview.

However, Ding Yue didn’t like such interviews. Xiaoyou hated them too. As such, he decided to decline all interviews with the press.

But why!

Why did so many media outlets want to interview him and Ding Xiaoyou?

Was it just because they were siblings, and he was both the principal of a university and the brother of the champion of the science section of the Entrance Exam?

Ding Yue, puzzled, checked out Twitter.

As expected!

Ding Yue began to see the signs.

Among the trending topics on Twitter, someone had started to control the narrative around him again.

Many people brought up his grades from last year’s College Entrance Examination.

Correct.

A bit over 200 points!

Then they started to fuel the fire around Ding Yue and his sister, Ding Xiaoyou!

Twitter user 102456: "#ScienceChampionSiblingsfromMistCity have made me die laughing. The elder brother, Ding Yue, only scored a bit over 200 on last year’s Entrance Exam, while the younger sister got 741. This is the classic tale of a genius sister and a dumb brother, right? But here’s the kicker - the older brother who only scored a bit over 200, managed to complete his university studies in one year and even published his graduation thesis. His sister scores 741 this year. This is all too good to be true!

Upon seeing this tweet by an account that was created just yesterday and with zero followers, Ding Yue couldn’t help but laugh.

Was this idiot for real?

However!

Despite the baseless and erratic nature of this post, it garnered many likes, comments, and re-shares. Its popularity seemed to increase at an alarming rate.

Ding Yue figured someone must have paid to trend this post?

But even if it’s meant to be hurtful, it should at least make sense.

What correlation does my score last year of a bit over 200 have with my sister’s 741 score this year?

Are they insinuating that my achieving of a university degree and publishing a thesis in record time somehow paved the way for my sister’s remarkable score this year?

What kind of logic is that?

However, from this post, it is clear that the main target is Ding Yue.

The ironic part is that people are really going along with this baseless Twitter narrative.

It can’t be helped.

Netizens always love a topic with a hint of controversy.

"I am not trying to contradict, but I can’t believe there’s no connection between this sibling duo and education authorities!"

"It’s definitely possible!"

"I feel like this tweet is just to slander. The Principal of Mist City Arts and Science University graduated on time and even published a thesis. That’s fine. His sister scored 741 in the examination, which again is fine. The problem arises when these two facts merge?"

"The key may be that the College Entrance Exam Science Champion’s brother only scored a bit over 200!

"So what if he scored a bit over 200? Does it interfere with him opening up a private university? As long as he’s got money!"

"Exactly, I feel like there are people who are just envious and can’t stand seeing both siblings having talent!"

"Yeah, the elder brother only scored a bit over 200 points, but that doesn’t mean he is incapable. He opened his own university, which is going well, and the sister is academically gifted scoring 741. There’s no issue!"

"Haha, I feel like Principal Ding took the Entrance Exams just for the sake of it. He had already decided to create his own university, right?"

Upon reading the comments, Ding Yue was amused to find that many netizens were actually supporting him.

However.

Now that his low exam score was exposed, Ding Yue felt a bit uneasy at first.

After all, scoring a bit over 200 and then opening a university seems unbelievable.

Therefore, it wasn’t surprising that it stirred up a debate. Ding Yue anticipated it.

What mattered was whether the education authorities would take notice of him?

But shortly after, Ding Yue dismissed the idea.

Because his university, the Mist City Arts and Science University, was fully accredited. Any necessary paperwork was already set in place. Therefore, he was not afraid of the education authorities probing into him.

At this time.

Mist City education authorities.

"Did you find anything?

"We did. The Mist City Arts and Science University’s paperwork is all in order, and was founded on the basis of Mist City Siyuan University. There is no problem!"

"Alright, got it."

The Minister of Education of Mist City, Xiao Wenxing, who was sitting in his office, had seen allegations about the credentials of Mist City Arts and Science University and the high score of 741 of Ding Xiaoyou online. This prompted him to have the university’s paperwork checked for credibility.

After Xiao Wenxing’s thorough investigation, all the paperwork and credentials of Mist City Arts and Science University were in order, and the score of Ding Xiaoyou was also valid.

This hence concluded the debate and cleared the rumors circulating online about Mist City Arts and Science University.

Mist City Arts and Science University is a well-performing private university that had emerged in the past year. The young principal, Ding, is also quite capable. Behind the university is the Feiyue Group with a registered capital of over 100 million.

Xiao Wenxing decidedly supports such private education institutions.

"Looks like it’s time for me to pay a visit to Mist City Arts and Science University." Xiao Wenxing murmured to himself with a smile.
