Actually,

Ding Yue was quite confident that Liu Chuanjie would stay.

Now that he had received Liu Chuanjie’s official affirmation, Ding Yue felt relieved.

"Principal Ding, I’ll stay too!"

At this moment, Zhao Chi also made his choice, "Although I really wanted to go to Xia Construction Group at first, after thinking it over, I’ve decided it’s better for me to stay."

Zhao Chi’s situation was different from Cui Hai’s and Liu Chuanjie’s.

From the beginning, he quickly settled on a goal: to strive to enter Xia Construction Group right after graduating from university.

After all, in Xia Country, the most outstanding and symbolically significant company in the construction field is Xia Construction Group.

Xia Construction Group, formally known as Xia Country Architectural Group, has an official flavor to its name. In fact, Xia Construction Group used to be a state-owned enterprise, and now the state still holds a dominant position.

Which architecture student doesn’t want to join Xia Construction Group?

Just like those in scientific research, who doesn’t want to join the Xia Country Academy of Sciences?

But seeing that Cui Hai and Liu Chuanjie both chose to stay,

Zhao Chi also began to entertain the thought of staying.

Xia Construction Group is indeed good.

But Feiyue Building is the construction company of his alma mater, and the first batch of employees they are recruiting is from Mist City Arts and Science University’s department of architecture.

Zhao Chi knew that Principal Ding had put a lot of effort into considering everyone’s future employment and prospects.

Just like with Feiyue Technology.

Many outstanding students from the Mechanical and Computer Science departments have already started working at Feiyue Technology.

Even though these students have not yet graduated, Principal Ding could provide them with a job.

By next year at the latest, Zhao Chi could also graduate a year early.

Just now, Zhao Chi had decided on his future path.

Although Xia Construction Group is good, if he went there, he might become insignificant like a single grain in the sea, ultimately achieving nothing significant.

But staying with Principal Ding’s Feiyue Building would be different.

Principal Ding had adopted his design for the Archive Library and even complemented it with an ancient architectural city, showing Principal Ding’s appraising gaze, just like Bole’s.

Zhao Chi had always believed he was a steed capable of covering a thousand li in one day.

And Bole was right in front of him.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Zhao Chi made such a decision.

"Good, you will be the cornerstones of Feiyue Building in the future. I hope that with you, Feiyue Building can achieve brilliance in the construction industry," said Ding Yue upon seeing the teachers and students of Mist City Arts and Science University’s architecture department being so supportive, filled with anticipation for the future development of Feiyue Building.

"Now, let’s talk about the second matter, which is Feiyue Building’s first project," said Ding Yue, looking at everyone seriously.

"Currently, our university is in urgent need of a hotel. Although we built a campus hotel during the last campus expansion, it seems that this campus hotel is no longer sufficient to meet the residential needs within the school," he continued.

"Do you mean, Principal Ding, that we should build another hotel?" asked Director Chen Ping curiously.

If that were the case, it would indeed be an excellent opportunity for the architecture students to participate.

What’s most important is

that the architecture students had already trained with Tianfu Construction Group during the previous campus expansion construction process.

This project should be considered their first one after separating from Tianfu Construction Group, right?

The significance is indeed substantial.

"That’s right!"

Ding Yue nodded and continued, "However, the hotel we’re going to create this time isn’t just an ordinary one. We want to build a quality hotel that could even be rated as five-star in the future. Do you all understand my meaning?"

Upon hearing Principal Ding say this, Liu Chuanjie, Cui Hai, and Zhao Chi probably understood.

That is to say,

this time when the school builds another hotel, the architectural design of the hotel is very important.

In terms of quality, it should potentially be rated as a five-star hotel in the future, although this largely depends on the services provided by the hotel.

Yet, the architectural design of the hotel is also extremely important.

Just like how a hotel that looks very ordinary, even if it has good service, would not resemble a five-star hotel at all.

Generally, you can tell just from the appearance of a five-star or luxury hotel that its quality is extraordinary.

"Principal Ding, in that case, how about we undertake the architectural design of the hotel?" asked Liu Chuanjie, volunteering proactively.

In fact, by agreeing to join Feiyue Building, this task was essentially part of their job.

"Okay."

Ding Yue nodded his agreement.

Then, smiling, he said, "In the future, you might become the chief design architect of Feiyue Building."

The title of chief design architect, upon hearing it, nearly overwhelmed Liu Chuanjie, Cui Hai, and Zhao Chi with joy.

However!

Chief design architect!

Chief means there can only be one person!

Whether it was Liu Chuanjie or Cui Hai or even Zhao Chi, who didn’t want to become the chief design architect of Feiyue Building under Principal Ding?

In fact, Liu Chuanjie and the others all knew that in the future, whoever contributed more to the company would become the chief design architect; this position had to be fought for with real ability.

"Alright, this meeting is to discuss these two matters. The meeting is adjourned."

After Ding Yue finished speaking, he stood up to announce the end of the meeting.

Ding Yue’s meetings were never drawn out; as long as everything that needed to be said was clear, that was enough.

What remained

depended on how his subordinates would carry it out.

After the meeting, Liu Chuanjie, Cui Hai, and Zhao Chi went back to start designing the new campus hotel.

The day passed in the blink of an eye.

What Ding Yue was most concerned about

was of course how many new students had completed enrollment at Mist City Arts and Science University today?

More than 20,000 people enrolled the day before, and today was the second day of new student enrollments. According to the feedback from Director Qi Chunsheng of the Academic Affairs Office at noon, the number of new students enrolling today was also quite high.

At 6:30 in the evening,

Ding Yue had dinner at the second cafeteria as usual.

After a busy day, Director Qi Chunsheng of the Academic Affairs Office brought the data on new student enrollments to Principal Ding.

"Director Qi, over here."

Ding Yue had already had his secretary, Wen Ruohan, prepare a meal for Director Qi Chunsheng.

Director Qi Chunsheng had been busy all day, and now he still needed to report on the enrollment situation to Principal Ding; Ding Yue thought it would be good to invite Director Qi Chunsheng to dinner.

However, the dinner was in the cafeteria.

Director Qi Chunsheng, holding the data, walked over to Principal Ding after seeing him.

"Director Qi, have a seat. I just got your food ready. You must be starving after working all day," said Ding Yue with a smile.

"Thank you, Principal Ding."

Director Qi Chunsheng nodded his head, then said, "Principal Ding, the number of new students enrolling today is also very impressive."

Having said that, Qi Chunsheng handed the data table to Principal Ding.

"How many?"

Ding Yue asked as he opened the data table to take a look.

Today, the number of new student enrollments totaled 17,681!

"Over 17,000!"

Ding Yue was astonished.

20,000 yesterday, 17,000 today.

In just two days of new student enrollments, a total of 38,000 new students had completed their enrollment process!

There were still several days left.

If this trend continued, the number of new student enrollments at Mist City Arts and Science University this year could very well exceed 50,000.

The data table Director Qi Chunsheng gave to Principal Ding not only contained the number of new student enrollments but also how much tuition was collected, the number of students from financially impoverished families applying for student loans, and even the number of new students enrolled in each department and major.

It was incredibly detailed.

"Principal Ding, our Mist City Arts and Science University’s reputation and influence have increased considerably this year, which is why we have so many new students," said Qi Chunsheng, his face revealing a satisfied smile.

As the Director of Academic Affairs, he knew that for a private university, naturally, the more students, the better.

This meant that the university’s finances would become even more robust in the future, and the school’s influence had greatly increased. As long as more students stood out and the overall academic performance was maintained, it was possible that in just a few years, Mist City Arts and Science University would become one of the country’s leading key-level private institutions of higher learning.
